At the break of dawn, Susu was exhausted and famished, her stomach "gurgling" audibly, and even her voice had grown feeble.
Yet, even as the sun rose high, no one came to check on them.
"What do you think, will they just leave us here to fend for ourselves?" Haotian jokingly said.
"I hope so!" Susu's heart was perpetually anxious. Ziqian would be here soon, she thought, and the anticipation of the compelling encounters that might occur kept her from settling down.
With a loud "bang," the door was kicked open, "Boss, please!"
Susu looked up to see Arthur striding in, head held high.
However, Arthur merely glanced at Suxin before walking over to Haotian.
"Is this the man?" Arthur's voice was cold, carrying a haughty air.
"Boss, he's big. Has some skills, too. If we weren't so clever, they might have escaped last night!" Jack hastily made excuses when he saw that the man from the previous night's watch hadn't come in.
