Chatter broke out among the crowd, giving off the vibe of an impending quarrel.
Bai Youwei surreptitiously observed the man in glasses, noticing a visible mix of annoyance and contempt in his demeanor. No doubt he was also helpless, having to rely on this group of vulgar and selfish humans for survival.
Bai Youwei turned her face and gave Shen Mo a look that seemed to say, "See, I told you this bunch can't be trusted."
Shen Mo simply smiled in response, not offering any comments.
The so-called strategy discussion gradually devolved. It started as a discussion but eventually degenerated into mutual blame. If not for the man in glasses stepping in occasionally to defuse the tension, it probably would have escalated into a showdown.
Suddenly, the room plunged into darkness!
The most timid were the first to scream.
Then someone else cursed, "What are you screaming about! It's just a power outage, don't scare yourself!"
