“If I get turned into wolf poop, I’ll haunt him for the rest of his life,” Huo Weiwu declared before stalking out of the room.
Lieutenant Shang’s lips curled into a small smile.
When Huo Weiwu saw him trying to hide his amusement, she frowned and asked, “What are you laughing at?”
“I’m sure that any wolf feces with the Commander’s essence will be very moist and of the highest quality,” said Lieutenant Shang with a chuckle.
The color in Huo Weiwu’s face alternated between white and red.
“Lieutenant Shang is much harder to deal with than the previous Lieutenant!” she thought.
When they reached the elevator, Huo Weiwu pressed the down button. She crossed her arms and stood before the doors, watching the numbers displayed on the screen above.
Lieutenant Shang reached out and pressed the up button.
Huo Weiwu frowned and cast a sidelong glance at Lieutenant Shang, “Are you just trying to annoy me, or did you press the up button so that I can fly directly to heaven?”
“I wouldn’t dare do that, Madam. However, we are indeed going to fly. The helicopter is already waiting for you upstairs,” replied Lieutenant Shang solemnly.
Huo Weiwu was speechless.
She went to the roof helplessly.
The blades of the helicopter were already spinning, and the roar of the motor was almost deafening to Huo Weiwu’s unprotected ears.
Lieutenant Shang handed her a pair of soundproof earmuffs.
Huo Weiwu received them nonchalantly, and after covering her ears, she leaned back in her seat and rested her feet on the seat in front of her.
Lieutenant Shang grinned and shook his head as he sat down beside her.
Huo Weiwu gazed strangely at Lieutenant Shang. “What are you laughing at this time?”
“I was just thinking that Madam and the Commander are really compatible,” said Lieutenant Shang meaningfully.
“I’m compatible with Gu Haoting?” Huo Weiwu shuddered as she pondered that statement.
“We’re compatible?” she said darkly. “Our genders are compatible, indeed.”

Half an hour later, the helicopter slowly descended.
Huo Weiwu gazed out the window, and a dense jungle greeted her eyes. It looked horrifyingly sinister, and a tinge of fear crawled into Huo Weiwu’s heart.
“Is Gu Haoting really going to dump me here?” she wondered.
She gazed at Lieutenant Shang, studying his face.
“Madam, it’s not too late now to apologize,” said Lieutenant Shang amicably.
Huo Weiwu turned her face and brushed a hand through her hair. “I don’t know how to apologize.”
“You are extremely clever, Madam. You will learn easily,” said Lieutenant Shang, playing along with her words.
Huo Weiwu chose to ignore him. She continued looking out the window.
After the helicopter descended, Huo Weiwu was transferred to a black Hummer.
“The Commander has instructed me to blindfold you, Madam,” said Lieutenant Shang as he took out a black cloth.
Huo Weiwu swiped the black cloth smoothly from his hand and blindfolded herself.
Howling could be heard from outside the window.
It was a wolf’s howl.
Huo Weiwu knitted her eyebrows. “There really are wolves here,” she thought.
“Isn’t there anything you want to say to me?” asked Huo Weiwu as she gripped her seatbelt to ease the nervousness in the pit of her stomach.
“Wolves travel together in a pack, and they tend to surround their prey. They will aim for the aorta for their first bite, and they refuse to let go once they’ve gotten their teeth into you. They won’t stop until you stop breathing. However, they won’t consume your bones, so some of your remains won’t become wolf feces, at least,” said Lieutenant Shang deliberately.
“In that case, I must thank you for your advice,” replied Huo Weiwu, her voice strained.
“The wolves here survive in wilderness conditions, and most of them haven’t eaten…”
“You can shut up now,” Huo Weiwu cut Lieutenant Shang off sharply. “How many days does Gu Haoting intend to make me stay here?”
“Nobody can be sure of the Commander’s temper, but I’m guessing that he will probably keep you here until you apologize. Let me advise you, Madam; don’t attempt to anger the Commander. Simply comply with his wishes and make him happy, and perhaps you will receive unexpected rewards,” said Lieutenant Shang respectfully.
“In that case, he can die for all I care,” said Huo Weiwu lazily.
The car came to a halt, and the surrounding howls were even clearer now.
Huo Weiwu removed her blindfold self-consciously and was thoroughly shocked by the scene that greeted her eyes.
