"There's no rush about the Wutong matter," Lin Rui noted the time, as it was just sunset.
Even if he went to discuss the main task with Wutong now, there wouldn't be any progress.
Besides, it wasn't bedtime yet. If he lingered there, his intentions would be too obvious.
Exposing intentions too early with impure motives won't get you the grapes.
Moreover, mentioning Wutong now made Lin Rui feel a bit guilty, fearing she'd beat him up.
If that happened in front of tens of thousands of soldiers, his dignity and reputation as Lord would be gone.
So Lin Rui continued, "Let's talk about the territorial issue. What happened? Why hasn't the Territorial Essence been deployed?"
"Let's talk!" Yuyu puffed out her chest and said in the fiercest tone, but with the most cowardly words: "But after I talk, you can't hit me."
Lin Rui took a deep breath, "I'll try, but no guarantees."
