Ye Shu couldn’t help but feel embarrassed. "Um, Great General, I’m just a little girl. In China, we have an old saying, ’long hair but short on insight’. Haven’t you heard of it? Aren’t you taking too much of a risk by betting the entire fate of Bansi City on my advice?"
"Not a risk. We believe in you!" General Dasha turned to seek consent from his brothers and said, "Everyone, what do you think? Should we listen to the Holy Girl?"
"Listen to the Holy Girl! Listen to the Holy Girl!" The Bansai people raised their hands one after another to indicate they wanted to hear Ye Shu’s advice.
Ye Shu wondered, why did she become the Holy Girl again?
Although she had some ideas, she couldn’t organize a good one on the spot.
At that moment, a lit cigarette was brought in front of her.
Turning her head to look, she caught sight of Sheng Shaochen’s face. Despite the stubble, he was still ridiculously handsome.
This guy used to forbid her from smoking and playing video games.
And now, look at him, lighting a cigarette to tempt her!
Was he trying to test if she used to smoke or not? Tʜe source of this ᴄontent ɪs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥
Ye Shu took the cigarette, slowly placed it to her lips, and kept her gaze on him, thinking that this was a cigarette he gave her, reminding him, "You’re really going to smoke it, huh?"
Suddenly, she took several puffs in quick succession and blew out a long stream of smoke!
Shoot, had she lost her mind or what?
Her thoughts inadvertently returned to the time years ago when he had restrictions on her; she had absolutely nothing to do with him now, so why all the suspicion over a cigarette?
Seeing Ye Shu’s slightly parted lips as she exhaled the smoke, everyone was stunned!
Two words: Super cool!
Even Sheng Shaochen was taken aback. He didn’t know why he had offered her a smoke. Could it be that she was the kind of woman who used to smoke?
But man, this woman was really interesting...
After a couple of drags, Little Shushu’s spirits were lifted. She patted General Dasha’s shoulder and said, "Great General, you don’t have to be disheartened. Actually, there might still be a way to salvage the situation."
On hearing this, General Dasha almost knelt down in gratitude. "Please, speak Holy Girl!"
"Don’t call me Holy Girl anymore. Holy Girl, Holy Girl, sounds like ’spinster’, which isn’t nice to hear," Ye Shu spoke, then took another two puffs. "I might be saying things out of order, but whichever you do first, there shouldn’t be a big problem."
"First, make efforts to obtain forgiveness from the hostages, and send back the people you’ve taken hostage as soon as possible, including any property you’ve seized. If you can’t return everything right now, then write IOUs obediently."
"Second, spread the word as much as possible through various channels that Wano has sent people to sneak into Bansi City to kidnap your president, and an impostor posing as your president led you into misdeeds. You need to put out the stance that you’re the biggest victims, denounce Wano, and seek international public support to shift the blame onto Wano."
"And third, the most important thing is to immediately seal off Bansi City, because I believe, even though the fake president has been killed, his accomplices must still be out there. You have to find those accomplices as soon as possible and send them to the International Military Court. Request support in rescuing your president, and at the same time, you can clear your name. As for how other nations view you, that will depend on your sincerity."
Having finished, she saw that everyone was still staring at her dumbfounded, as if waiting for her to give orders. Xiao Xiao chuckled, "That’s all I have to say, thank you."
