"Of course not! What you're talking about is basically a tyrannical contract!"
"It seems that we have a disagreement," Zhu Qingyue sighed with some distress, "Then shall we go with the old method, a fair vote?"
Xu Xiangyang had thought that Lin Xingjie would definitely help him refuse. But to his surprise, the long-haired girl showed a contemplative expression and only after a good while did she hesitantly say:
"...I want to hear the details of the punishment before deciding."
"Ah?"
Xu Xiangyang was dumbfounded.
"Alright then."
Zhu Qingyue, as if she had anticipated this, immediately took Lin Xingjie's hand.
"Come here, over this way, I'll talk to you."
Under Xu Xiangyang's astonished gaze, they walked over to an unoccupied corner of the corridor and began softly discussing.
Sounds like whispering murmurings came from that direction, leaving Xu Xiangyang feeling at a loss.
A few minutes later, Lin Xingjie returned to Xu Xiangyang with a joyful expression on her face.
