After carefully putting away the boy's painting, Zheng Qi turned around and told Wang Zhenglin, "Issue an order. All members of the official exploration team will gather at the square on the first floor at 10 a.m. tomorrow. The goal is to explore the newly emerged mutant plants."

"Yes, I will give the general order right away!"

As the order was issued, the entire official shelter became busy, and the psychics gathered together to discuss the emergence of the mutated plants.

Liu Qian was one of them. At this moment, she was moving among the crowd and observing everyone. Soon, she locked her eyes on a bearded man who was eating skewers in a small shop and walked over.

Clang!

Liu Qian slammed the big knife on the table and waved to the waiter: "Give me two beef skewers, two mutton skewers, a few cold dishes and a bottle of beer!"

Her voice was deliberately hoarse and rough, and her bright and exaggerated makeup and hot clothes attracted a lot of attention.

After taking the beer handed to her by the waiter, she opened the lid and drank half of it in one gulp before cheering heartily.

Noticing Liu Qian's gaze on him, the big man who was drinking alone raised his glass towards her and said, "Have a drink?"

Boom!

The cups clinked together with a pleasant sound, and the two men raised their heads at the same time, drank the wine, and laughed together.

Seeing such a straightforward and unpretentious woman, the bearded man took the initiative to bring up the topic: "Your knife is quite good. I, Old Eight Xue, have never seen such a beautiful woman wielding a big knife."

"Showing off with a big sword?"

Liu Qian lightly squeezed the beer glass in her hand and it instantly broke into pieces that scattered all over the floor. Before Xue Laoba could react, the hand that crushed the glass gently brushed across his cheek and finally lifted his chin lightly.

"I'm not good at wielding a broadsword, but I think it's quite interesting to wield it with you. But it's a pity that I have a mission tomorrow and I haven't found anyone to team up with."

With a sigh, Liu Qian withdrew her hand and started playing with the dagger. The sharp dagger jumped and rotated between her ten fingers, looking relaxed and comfortable without losing beauty.

She was born with a fair complexion, and the red nail polish made her look even more charming, but the confidence in her eyes made her shine like the sun.

Swallowing his saliva, Xue Laoba tentatively stretched out his hand: "Our team is just short of people, do you want to..."

Before he could finish his invitation, Liu Qian inserted the dagger in his fingers and looked at him coldly with her charming eyes.

"If you can't control yourself, I can help you. I will definitely make you feel so good that you can stand shoulder to shoulder with the sky and the sun. What do you think?"

She smiled brightly, but Xue Laoba put away the contempt in his heart, immediately withdrew his hand and laughed.

"The skewers are ready, let's discuss while we eat."

Seeing him actively trying to snatch the waiter's job and get the skewers, Liu Qian immediately let out a long breath and pinched her hands which were a little numb due to nervousness.

But thinking that she would soon join the team to carry out tomorrow's mission, she felt that the future was not so bad.

Rumor has it that tomorrow's exploration mission will have a lot of rewards, so she is willing to put on such a show and join the team to get some for herself.

As long as she gets a good reward this time, Liu Qian will be able to move into her own house and live a slightly more decent life. At least she won't have to live in one house with more than a dozen people and have to deal with endless trivialities every day.

When she thought about the bad days in the past, Liu Qian felt that she must seize this opportunity no matter what.

So, when Xue Laoba came back and saw Liu Qian getting ready to leave, he grabbed her hand without thinking too much and said, "We haven't discussed joining the team yet, why are you leaving?"

Liu Qian glared at him and Xue Lao Ba immediately withdrew his hand with a wry smile: "Didn't we agree to go on a mission together tomorrow? Why are you leaving now?"

"Can you be the leader of your team?"

Putting the skewers on the table, Xue Lao Ba patted his chest and said, "Of course. I, Xue Lao Ba, am the captain of the Hurricane Squad. I can still make the decision on this matter. Don't worry, those people will definitely have no objection."

Seeing that Liu Qian still looked unconvinced, Xue Laoba directly took out his ID: "See, this is registered with the Public Security Bureau. I am the captain."

Finally, Liu Qian nodded with satisfaction and shook Xue Laoba's hand: "Then let's have a pleasant cooperation, Captain Xue."

Seeing such a beautiful and cold woman being so submissive and kind to him, Xue Laoba couldn't help but drink a few more glasses. In the end, he didn't even know how he fell asleep until the waiter woke him up when the restaurant closed.

Rubbing his greasy face, Xue Laoba thought of Liu Qian's every frown and smile today. Such a distant yet beautiful woman made him unable to help but grin.

The next morning, all the people with special abilities gathered in the lobby on the first floor. The whole lobby was noisy and lively.

Taking a look at the bracelet, the other three members of the Hurricane Team couldn't help but mutter, "Captain Xue, you must be lying. It's already this late and we haven't seen the beautiful team member you mentioned come over."

Upon hearing this, Xue Laoba, who was looking back and forth, retorted stubbornly: "How could it be a lie? Maybe she got tripped up by something."

"Maybe it's the beauty that our old eighth dreamed of when he was drinking. Otherwise, how could he get this good thing?"

The team members were laughing, and Xue Laoba could only look forward to it while secretly getting angry. He was a little annoyed why Liu Qian didn't come to save his face so late.

Time passed by minute by minute, and the team members were too lazy to pay attention to Xue Laoba. Only Xue Laoba looked at the direction of the elevator and waited for a long time, his face completely darkening.

However, just when they had begun discussing today's route, Xue Laoba suddenly felt someone bumping into his back.

He was upset and subconsciously wanted to turn around and scold, but he saw the pale face of the beautiful woman close to him.

"I'm sorry, Captain Xue, I'm a little late."

Liu Qian's voice was a little weak, and her face was a little apologetic. The faint fragrance enveloped Xue Laoba's body, making him confused and fascinated.

Distributing the hot milk tea and pastries that had been bought long ago to each team member, Liu Qian explained: "Sorry, I was delayed by something. Everyone, eat something to warm up your body."

Although they were all cheap food, the team members nodded in a friendly manner after accepting the favor: "It's okay, it's not too late."

It was at this time that the female team member pointed at Liu Qian's wrist and forehead in surprise: "Sister, why are you injured?"

Hearing this, Liu Qian smiled unnaturally: "Nothing, I met a few superpowers bullying girls on the way here."

As soon as these words were spoken, Xue Laoba and several other team members immediately guessed the process of Liu Qian fighting with several psychics to save the girl, so their favorable impression of Liu Qian instantly increased.

Feeling the enthusiasm of the crowd, Liu Qian silently gave a thumbs up to her own acting skills.

Yes, that's right, the ability that Liu Qian awakened was not a combat ability but "acting", and this useless ability allowed her to use her acting skills to great effect, including this time.

As long as she acts well enough, Liu Qian will be seen as a strong person by others.
