Translator: 549690339

Ever since he knew that the ” specialties ” of Golden Cauldron Island would be different due to the change of map, Jiang Beiran had started a new round of selection.

The group that had been selected previously were the most elite “workers” of Ling Long Workshop.

However, there were still quite a number of people who were not as elite as him. After some screening, they could still be recruited.

As the days passed, Jiang Beiran’s Green Sky Club’s lineup grew more complete and larger.

Inner city, Kongtian Palace.

“Young Miss.”

“Young Miss.”

Shi Jiamu walked in as the maids greeted her respectfully.

“Mother!” Shi Jiamu shouted and pounced on a dignified woman sitting by the bed.

Hugging Shi Jiamu, who had pounced on her, Shi Ruijing stroked her hair and said, “You still know to come and see your mother.”

She buried her head in Shi Ruijing’s arms and rubbed it against her chest. She then lowered her head and said coquettishly,””Mother

Shaking her head with a smile, Shi Ruijing rubbed her daughter’s soft black hair and asked,””Recently, compared to Mother, you’ve become much closer to your aunt.”

I’m not!” Shi Jiamu looked up at her mother and smiled.”l’ve been busy with Bixiao Club recently, so going to little aunt’s place is purely official business.” “Is that so?” Shi Ruijing smiled.” How are the preparations going?”” “Very well prepared! This time, the winner will definitely be our Shi family!”

“Well said!” At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out from behind the screen.” Jia ‘er, I’m waiting for you to make me proud.”‘

Seeing that her father had arrived, Shi Jiamu hurriedly stood up and shouted, “Father.’

“Yes.” Nodding, Shi Yingfa sat on the comb-back chair behind him and took the teacup from the maid. Shi Yingfa opened the lid of the teacup and took a few swipes at it. Suddenly, he looked up at Shi Jiamu and asked,””How are things with Jiang Beiran?”

“That’s it…He’s a weirdo.” Shi Jiamu replied.

“How strange?” Shi Yingfa asked with interest.

“He is obviously very capable, but he doesn’t look like a capable person at all.”

Shi Yingfa laughed after hearing that.” Then what do you think makes a capable person?”

“It makes people unconsciously feel awe, just like dad.”

“Oh? Hahahaha.” Shi Ying laughed twice.” Often, those who seem to be incapable are much more reliable than those who are usually very capable at critical moments. Since you have become familiar with him, you should learn more and watch more. I believe you will benefit a lot.'”‘

“Father, you’ve never even met that uncle, yet you’re already so impressed with him?” Shi Jiamu couldn’t help but say.”

“Just the fact that he was invited by the ancestor is enough to make me look at him in a new light. “Shi Yingfa took a sip of hot tea.” Oh right, have you decided on the candidates for the Green Sky Club? Your Sixth Uncle just happened to mention this today. Your Brother Yongyuan is rubbing his fists and waiting for you to find him.”

“This…”

Seeing that Shi Jiamu had shifted her gaze away, Shi Yingfa asked,””What, have you already chosen everyone?

“Yes… You can say so.” Shi Jiamu nodded.

“What do you mean by ‘so’? Why is your speech so unclear today?”

Seeing that her father was a little unhappy, Shi Jiamu quickly explained, “The candidate list is already available. There’s only one last round of selection left.”

“Your Brother Yongyuan isn’t on the list?”

“Mm, no.”

“Oh?” Shi Yingfa became a bit shocked,” Your elder brother Yongyuan defeated a Xuan Emperor of Fire-Dragon Castle by skipping his level last time. He’s a well-known figure in your generation. How could he not catch your eye?” Then I’m really curious about who you’ve chosen. Do you have the list?”

“Yes, I did.”

Looking at her daughter’s hesitant look, Shi Yingfa reached out his hand and said, “”Bring it over.”

“Yes…” Shi Jiamu agreed and handed the list of candidates to her father.

Shi Yingfa took it and immediately flipped it open. His expression became a little interesting.

After a while, Shi Yingfa closed the name list.” Your uncle agreed?”

“Yes, yes, yes”

“Hahahaha!” Shi Yingfa burst into laughter.” This Jiang Beiran is indeed very capable.

Shi Jiamu wasn’t stupid enough to ask her father how he knew that Jiang Beiran had chosen the name list, because it was too obvious.

After returning the name list to Shi Jiamu, Shi Ying smiled and said,””But you have to be mentally prepared. In a few days, you should start to have a headache.”

Shi Jiamu instantly understood what her father meant. She smiled bitterly and replied, “Why don’t I hide at home for a few days?”

“That won’t do. It’s useless to run away. You still have to deal with the problems that you should deal with.”

“I… Alright then.”

Three days later, Shi Jiamu arrived at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley in a sorry state. She rushed into Jiang Beiran’s hut and shouted. “Uncle! Hurry up and give me an idea. I’m so annoyed.”

Silence. The room was empty. No one responded to her.

Just as Shi Jiamu was about to look elsewhere, she heard the back door of the room creak open.

“Mwah, you’re here. Little Bei Ran said that he’s going out for a few days and left in the morning. “Shi Fenglan walked in and said.

“He left?” Shi Jiamu’s eyes widened in shock. She had been waiting for someone to “save her”, but he had actually run away.

“What’s the matter? Is there something urgent?”Shi Fenglan asked curiously when she saw Shi Jiamu’s shocked expression.

“Yes, it’s urgent, very urgent..”
