I Told You To Manage The Reserve Unit For Me Instead Of Turning It Into A Special Troop
Chapter 1188 - Chapter 1188 Chapter 682 Preparing for a Rainy Day

Chapter 1188: Chapter 682: Preparing for a Rainy Day Chapter 1188: Chapter 682: Preparing for a Rainy Day He had blurted it out as soon as it crossed his mind.

Indeed, he hadn’t stopped for even a moment.

Hearing these words, a flash of surprise crossed Old Liu’s face, but it quickly returned to calmness. He asked with extreme confusion,

“Qin Yuan, what exactly are you talking about? What do you mean by knowing why I agreed to Liu Yue? Of course, it was because of Liu Yue’s determination.”

“Liu Yue has been talking here the whole time, clinging to this topic without letting go. I felt that only by agreeing with her would she drop this issue.”

“Besides, I also think what I said was correct; I wanted to reaffirm what I had said, so I agreed. That’s my reason for agreeing.”

Old Liu said this without even blinking.

That’s right, he was just making things up.

At a time like this, he definitely had to make things up.

It was impossible to reveal everything.

He truly couldn’t do it.

Hearing this, Qin Yuan’s face showed not a hint of surprise, but instead, he spoke slowly.

“Old Liu, do you think I would believe your explanation? I wouldn’t believe it, because you agreed to Liu Yue for a different reason.”

“Moreover, have you forgotten what you just said? You asked Liu Yue to call her mother right away, and you also said her mother is a workaholic who needed to wrap up her work early.”

“Now that Liu Yue is making the call, her mother surely has a lot of unfinished work and couldn’t come back immediately, or it might take her a long time to return.”

So he finally understood why Old Liu had said that.

It was because he knew Liu Yue’s mother couldn’t come back, that’s why he agreed.

Old Liu’s scheme was sounding quite clever.

Indeed, that was his thought.

He hadn’t thought of it at first, but after pondering for a moment, he finally figured it out.

He also understood the saying that an old ginger is hotter than a new one.

But they weren’t foolish.

Given enough time, they could figure it out too.

At this moment, Wu Zeyuan frowned and immediately said,

“Qin Yuan, you really are too clever, you actually figured it out. Jiang Qi and I hadn’t thought of it; we thought he had genuinely compromised.”

“But we didn’t expect he was actually setting a trap for us to fall into, and we’ve already fallen in. I’m afraid the outcome might be very uncertain now.”

“What should we do now? Surely we can’t just continue to stay in this pit? Is there a way for us to get out?”

Now it was time to think of a way to get out of the pit.

They couldn’t continue to stay in it.

If they stayed, they wouldn’t be able to resolve this issue.

What should they do next?

Wu Zeyuan was already distressed.

Standing on the side, Jiang Qi also furrowed his brows, his expression turning extremely unsightly, and despite taking a deep breath, he still couldn’t force himself to calm down.

“So that’s what Old Liu was thinking. It seems we’re still too green. Old ginger is hotter after all. What should we do next?”

“Do we really have to stay in this pit? We cannot afford to stay in this pit indefinitely; otherwise, all our efforts before would be wasted.”

“Although an old ginger is hotter, we are not fools either. Once we put our minds to it, we surely can come up with a method.”

Yes, they surely could think of a solution.

They were capable of conducting scientific research, so could they really not figure out a solution to a minor problem like this?

They couldn’t believe they lacked the capacity or the ability to find a solution.

At this moment, a flicker of confusion crossed Old Liu’s face, and he even said slowly,

“What exactly are you talking about? What do you mean by saying I’m setting a trap for you to fall into? I have never set any trap for you.”

“I merely agreed out of annoyance by Liu Yue’s persistence, I didn’t want to agree from the beginning.”

“Otherwise, you wouldn’t have wasted so much breath here before. Anyway, I have said what I needed to say, I didn’t deceive you in this matter, believe it or not.”

He definitely couldn’t admit it now.

Would anyone knowingly lift a stone to drop on their own foot?

Absolutely not.

So, he wasn’t going to do it.

How could he do such a thing?

Thinking this, Old Liu’s gaze became much more resolute.

At this time, the corners of Qin Yuan’s lips slightly curled up, and then he spoke slowly.

“Old Liu, to be honest, I wasn’t hoping you would take my words to heart anyway. After all, things have come to this point, how could you possibly admit it?”

“It doesn’t matter if you don’t admit it; as long as I know, that’s enough for me. I don’t need your admission here. Since you’ve already dug a pit for us to fall into, we will definitely find a way to resolve it.”

They would find a way to resolve it.

Now they wouldn’t blame Old Liu.

After all, Old Liu did this for a reason.

Because Old Liu never thought he was doing anything wrong from the beginning.

If he knew he was wrong, he wouldn’t keep talking like this.

There was some justification in his actions.

The most important thing for them now was to figure out how to jump out of this pit.

It was better to wait until Liu Yue finished her call.

Liu Yue hadn’t finished her call yet.

Since the call wasn’t over, it meant they didn’t know yet if they had fallen into the pit.

Maybe Liu Yue’s mother was free.

Besides, Old Liu hadn’t called Liu Yue’s mother himself, so he couldn’t know in advance.
