The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 603: Chapter 603 Another Girl Chapter 603: Chapter 603 Another Girl Shu Yu naturally noticed that the others were displeased and sensed what they meant in their eyes.

If it were a man, it might be fine, but a woman who seemed as if she could not even truss a chicken would only hold them back once in the mountains.

Thus, everyone present kept silent, some even turned their heads, hoping they would not be chosen.

The officer furrowed his brow, knowing that since he had promised Meng Yunzheng, he would definitely need to take extra care of Shu Yu.

Therefore, he swept his gaze over those present and said, “If you won’t speak up, then I’ll make the choice myself.”

He was particularly interested in the group of eight; these people had relatively rich experience and more manpower. Shu Yu merely needed to blend in with them and go through the motions to come out with some gains.

After all, it was just about bringing one more person, nothing problematic.

The officer thought about this and was about to speak.

However, the boss of the group of eight felt uneasy as he met the officer’s gaze and quickly smiled, saying, “Bailiff, I think for a mountain hunting expedition, it’s better to stick with men. Women probably don’t understand the dangers of the mountains, especially with our larger group, which will be going deep into the wilderness where there are wolves and tigers. It’s her first day, and it’s not suitable for her to follow us. What if something happens? That would be most regrettable.”

Immediately behind him, his teammate added, “Yes, perhaps it’s better for her to follow a smaller group that doesn’t venture deep into the mountains. She can practice and get accustomed before going deep into the mountains with a larger group.”

In the midst of speaking, the person glanced at the only group of three.

The faces of the trio changed slightly, and they quickly spoke up, “We three have worked together for a long time and are familiar with each other. Adding another person might disrupt our tacit understanding. I think it would be better for her to follow the fifth group. There is also a woman there; the two ladies together would be more convenient and could look out for each other, right?”

Shu Yu was momentarily stunned; there was another woman? She hadn’t noticed her before.

She followed everyone’s gaze toward the fifth group and looked closely, finally noticing a girl standing in the corner.

The girl was dressed in coarse hemp cloth, her hair styled like a man’s, and her face was dark as well, small in stature. Standing behind several men, she was not easily noticeable without close observation.

When someone mentioned her name, the girl lifted her head, her fingers slightly tightening.

But the members of the fifth group, who were also mentioned, were not pleased. They were already burdened with one encumbrance, and now another was to be thrust upon them? Did they want to hunt at all, did they even want to eat?

The head of the fifth group immediately spoke up, “I think it’s inappropriate, but there’s some truth in what they said. Bailiff, it’s indeed unsuitable for this girl to join us in the mountains. It was one thing when there was only one, we could manage it. But now, since there are two of them, it would be better to have them form their own team.”

Behind him, someone chimed in, “Yes, bailiff, since they are both youngsters from good families, there’s no need for them to go deep into the mountains. Just staying on the periphery and hunting some wild chickens or rabbits would suffice, and there’s less worry about encountering dangers.”

Upon hearing this, others nodded their heads in agreement, continuously saying, “Yes, yes, that sounds like a good idea.”

The officer furrowed his brow again; he actually thought it was a good suggestion. Staying in the outer areas hunting wild chickens or whatnot, since they were just two girls, the expected tasks weren’t too demanding, bagging three wild chickens or rabbits would be sufficient.

He thought it over, but still needed to ask for the opinions of the two women.
