After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 412

Chapter 412: Who Came Up with Such an Absent-Minded Name
“Phew—”

The candidates on the platform, who were originally serious and ready, couldn’t help but burst into laughter, never expecting such words from the little girl.

The Wealthy Team, they weren’t in it for the money, they were in it to give it their all, right?

Little did they know, even more absurd things were yet to come. Zhao Xinghua said, “Alright then, we’ll be called the Wealthy Team from now on.”

Just a name, nothing of great significance.

Zhouzhou was the captain, so she could call it whatever she wanted.

As she spoke, she turned to the others, a hint of threat in her eyes as she asked, “Do any of you have objections?”

“None!” everyone replied in unison, completely concealing their earlier cynicism.

No choice, Zhouzhou was their captain after all.

According to the island’s rules, once grouped, all commands had to be followed by the captain.

Here, obedience to orders was paramount.

Zhouzhou hadn’t expected him to actually change the name, and couldn’t help but smile happily, “Let’s get started then.”

They began with 1v1 battles, then eliminated one person from the group of five.

They had trained for a year for this opportunity.

Everyone was extremely serious, holding nothing back, utilizing all their abilities.

Zhao Xinghua also brought out their files for Zhouzhou to see, “Zhouzhou, if you had to choose, who would you pick?”

Zhouzhou glanced at it and then looked away, unable to read, so there was no point in looking.

She looked at the people on the platform, staring at their faces, and quickly pointed out four of them.

“The tallest uncle, the one in black, the one with the mole on his face, and the skinny uncle.”

At her words, Zhao Xinghua quickly matched them up, his brow relaxing.

The tallest one was Wang Chong, who had defeated everyone yesterday but was defeated by Zhouzhou in the end.

He was currently the strongest in terms of combat power among those not yet grouped.

The one in black was Cui Kun, transferred from the army, quiet and reserved, with remarkable strength.

The one with the mole on his face was Lu Shi, skilled in various mechanical designs and weapon-making, not one for words, preferring to lock himself in his study.

He was an academic maniac, although he did tend to accidentally blow up houses when experimenting with weapons.

As for the last skinny one, he was the skinny monkey who had clashed with Zhouzhou before, an orphan who had grown up hungry and thin.

He was picked up by Qi Hua while fighting on the streets. Skilled in tracking, smooth-talking, and quite clever.

In fact, these were also the members Zhao Xinghua had in mind for the Leopard team, oh, no, the Wealthy Team.

From a comprehensive assessment, these four were indeed the strongest.

Zhouzhou’s choice of them wasn’t unexpected, and the result was about the same.

Sure enough, the final ones left were these four.

Zhao Xinghua stood up, “Alright, I declare that the Wealthy Team is officially established from today onwards.”

“Yes, sir,” the four said in unison.

Zhouzhou also clapped happily, completely oblivious to any abnormalities.

Seeing this, Zhao Xinghua paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “Zhouzhou, there’s a banquet tonight with lots of delicious food, would you like to come?”

At the mention of this, Zhouzhou’s eyes lit up, vigorously nodding her head, “Yes yes yes!”

She loved to eat.

“Alright, what do you like to eat? You can tell me.”

“As long as it’s food, anything is fine.”

“Mmm, I understand. When it’s almost time, I’ll have Chen Tuo come to pick you up.”

“Okay okay.” Just thinking about the delicious food, Zhouzhou’s mouth started watering, and seeing that there was nothing else to do, she happily left with Wangcai and Jinbao.

Watching her innocent appearance, Zhao Xinghua felt a twinge of guilt in his heart, unsure if what he was doing was right or wrong.

But the only thing he could be sure of was that he couldn’t escape this beating.

With that in mind, he touched his chest. At this moment, no one knew he was wearing a bulletproof vest underneath, hoping that Ye Lingfeng would go easy on him. Sigh.

Qi Hua walked over and spoke slowly, “Director Zhao, I just got a call. My mother is ill, I need to go home for a while.”

At his words, Zhao Xinghua looked over gently, “I remember your mother passed away last year.”

Qi Hua remained expressionless, saying earnestly, “She’s my godmother, and a godmother is still a mother.”

“Get lost, spare me the sentimental stuff,” Zhao Xinghua didn’t believe him at all. “Before tonight, no one is allowed to leave.”

Tonight was the day when the Dragon, Tiger, Lion, Wave, Spirit teams, and the newly formed Wealthy Team would meet.

The banquet was also meant to familiarize them with each other, after all, sometimes members from different teams would have to work together on a task.

So, the matter of them abducting Zhouzhou couldn’t be hidden anymore.

Hearing this, Qi Hua sighed, knowing he couldn’t agree, so he could only accept it. In fact, he also knew deep down that he couldn’t escape this, unless he never returned to the island in his life. But that was impossible.

Now all he could tell himself was to die early and be reborn early. A hint of determination flashed in his eyes as he glanced at Zhao Xinghua, noticing the furrow in his brow, and he understood.

Director Zhao was afraid too. That would put his mind at ease a bit more. He was the mastermind of this affair; at most, he could be considered an accomplice, so he might be able to avoid one punch.

The two were trembling with fear, but Zhouzhou still had no idea what was coming, happily playing with Wangcai.

As they played, a golden figure suddenly appeared before them. It was massive, almost the size of a lion, striding steadily towards them.

There was a hint of blood at the corner of its mouth, indicating it had just finished hunting, and its aura was no less intimidating than that of the island’s inhabitants. It was a male lion!

Upon seeing it, Jinbao quickly hid behind Zhouzhou, trembling with fear. What was this guy doing here? Wangcai also paused upon seeing it, ready to bolt.

Only Zhouzhou blinked, looking at its golden fur with bright eyes. The lion looked at them, then pounced towards them.

Wangcai’s fur bristled, but Zhouzhou dashed forward, hugging the lion’s head and riding on its back.

Witnessing this scene, Wangcai’s expression turned horrified, quickly urging her with a howl to run. Run fast! This was his father’s mortal enemy, and he was fierce!

However, Zhouzhou wasn’t afraid at all, marveling at the lion’s fur and exclaiming, “Wow, you look so majestic!”

It was like gold, and she wanted to be like that too! It was the first time the lion had encountered a human child who wasn’t afraid of it.

It was momentarily stunned, then tried to bite Zhouzhou. But she grabbed its upper and lower jaws, her chubby little hands looking fragile but surprisingly strong, preventing it from closing its mouth.

Zhouzhou grinned, “Goldie, are you hungry with your mouth open like that?”

The lion roared, wanting to shake her off. But it couldn’t even shake its head properly, astonished that anyone could resist it like this, except for that dead tiger.

It couldn’t help but feel a bit angry and tried to close its mouth, but the next moment, it was dumbfounded. Zhouzhou quickly grabbed some grass and stuffed it into its mouth, patting its head and saying, “Good, eat it well, and you won’t be hungry.”

The lion was dumbfounded for a long time before spitting out the grass. It wanted meat! But Zhouzhou grabbed another handful of grass and stuffed it in, holding its mouth shut and saying seriously, “Goldie, you can’t be picky.”

Her hands were like iron chains; the lion struggled for a long time but couldn’t move at all. Looking at the silly human child in front of it, it couldn’t help but roll its eyes and begrudgingly swallowed the grass.

Where did this human child come from, so infuriating? When Ye Lingfeng came over, he saw the lion lying on the ground looking depressed, and Zhouzhou stuffing grass into its mouth.

He couldn’t help but chuckle. Did Zhouzhou think this was just a cat? After watching for a while, he walked over.

Before he could get close, Chen Tuo hurried over and said, “Boss, Director Zhao said you should attend the banquet tonight to celebrate the establishment of the Wealthy Team.”

Hearing this, Ye Lingfeng paused, raising an eyebrow. “Wealthy Team?” Who came up with such an absent-minded name?
