Bai Lin frowned. Before Yan Ruo could open his mouth, she had already stepped out from behind him. She extended a finger and pressed it against Fiery Tom’s shoulder. With a slight force, she pushed him back.

The tense atmosphere between the two was broken by Bai Lin’s appearance.

Fiery Tom relaxed his body and looked down at Bai Lin. He backed away with the strength of her finger and was finally pushed against the door. He chuckled. “I’ll be outside if you push me some more.”

Bai Lin retracted her hand and did not reply. She looked at him in silence.

Fiery Tom was a little nervous, and the frivolous smile on his face disappeared.

After a few seconds, Bai Lin looked at his face and sneered, “You’re nothing special and not as handsome as our Yan Ruo. How dare you come to our group and cause a scene?

Fiery Tom’s expression suddenly darkened.

[Well said, Lin-jie! As long as you praise Yan Ruo, we’re best bros from different parents!]

[Fiery Tom’s been punished, hahaha. That angry expression can make me laugh for a year.]

[Fiery Tom can’t be compared to Yan Ruo at all, okay? It’s true he isn’t as good looking as Yan Ruo, but he doesn’t rely on this to make a living. Isn’t Bai Lin going a little too far?]

[Please, Fiery Tom was the one who provoked them first, alright? They were happily preparing to eat, but he came over and started mocking them. What’s wrong with Bai Lin protecting her teammate?]

[Friends, this isn’t protecting her teammate. This is protecting her husband!

My ship is sailing again!]

Yan Ruo looked at Bai Lin, and a hint of a smile flashed across his eyes. Fiery Tom’s heavy gaze fell on him, but it could not change his good mood. Fiery Tom actually felt a little wronged. “You scolded me because of him?”

Bai Lin was confused. “Why are you acting cute with me? I don’t even know you. Besides, weren’t you the one who spoke rudely first?”

“If Bai Xi asked you to do this, then I suggest you think about it again,” she emphasized, “I won’t let my team members get upset.”

Fiery Tom’s expression became even more aggrieved. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he pushed the door open and turned to leave.

Bai Lin’s eyes were filled with question marks.

What was this person doing? He had come and left inexplicably.

Was this the standard of a mercenary? She had only scolded him briefly and he ran away?

The mercenaries nowadays were not good enough.

Zhou Guang walked over and patted Bai Lin’s shoulder. “Sis, this person doesn’t look easy to get along with. Let’s talk less to him.”

While the two groups were eating happily, Fiery Tom went to the river where Bai Lin had just caught fish alone. After taking off his clothes, he jumped in and caught two fish.

He was only left with a pair of shorts, but it was as if he could not feel the cold. With his upper body bared, he set up a bonfire on the spot, knocked the two fish unconscious, peeled off their scales, and threw them into the fire.

After a few seconds, without caring if the fish were cooked or not, he grabbed them from the fire with his bare hands accurately and took a big bite with a dark face.

[Help, Fiery Tom feels so pitiful. Bai Lin and Bai Xi’s teams are eating well, but he’s here eating half-cooked fish alone.]

[Can that fish really be eaten? They’ve only been cooking for a short time, and can the staff please remind him to put on his clothes?! The temperature there is close to zero. He just came out of the water. Isn’t he cold?]

[Should I say that he’s a real mercenary? His physical fitness is really good. He can even grab the fish from the fire.]

[Bai Lin’s becoming more mysterious. She can do whatever Fiery Tom can do. I wouldn’t be surprised if someone says that she’s that G.o.d of mercenaries.]

[Bai Lin is indeed strong, but isn’t it a little too much to say that she’s Bilina? She doesn’t take on many missions anymore, but she won’t appear on such a variety show that entertains the public either.]

[I think so too. If someone at Bilina’s level partic.i.p.ates in Traveler, I suggest that the livestream channel charges a few thousand Yuan for tickets.

Otherwise, I’ll feel uneasy watching. I’m not worthy of it.]

When the audience saw the comment, it more or less dispelled some of their ridiculous speculations.

Not only was Bilina the leader of the top mercenary group, “Spikes”, she was also a well-known and mysterious figure who ranked top in the mercenary circle.

No one had ever seen her true face, including her employer. Even the members of her team only knew that she was a woman..
