Chapter 569: The Tug-of-War Between Top Playoff Tacticians

Land Post Station reluctantly stood up, supporting his knee. He chuckled and took on the mission, saying, "I got it, I'll go buy groceries. What do you want to eat?"
"I want to eat yellow throat!" Mushi Cheng was the first to raise his hand enthusiastically, "And 'hairy' tripe!"
"I don't know if there are any fresh ones left at this time." Luyizhan took out a note and noted, ???? He looked up at Georgiana and Amande, ???? "You two are guests, you should order first. Do you have any dietary restrictions or preferences?"
George shook his head, "I eat everything."
"What is Huanghou...?" Amande frowned, "And what is 'Mao' Stomach?"
Mu Sichen proudly crossed his arms and sneered, "You have no taste, these are must-order dishes for hot pot!"
“那是什么东西呢？”阿曼德质问，“看起来也不像知道这具体是什么。”
牧四诚蔑视的表情僵在了脸上。
他真的不知道这东西是什么，他只知道好吃。
"Huanghou is the cow's aorta blood vessel. After it is cut off from the cow's organs, it is flipped over and repeatedly rinsed. Then, the inner blood vessel membrane is torn off and cut into sections. It is briefly boiled and is ready to be eaten, giving a crispy feeling of blood vessels." Mu Ke explained with a friendly smile, speaking in a gentle tone. "Maodu is the cow's stomach. It is flipped over and thoroughly washed. Inside, there are many layered tentacles, all of which are used by the cow for digestion. "
"By the way, we also eat brains, it's delicious."
Amande: "!!!!"
What kind of horrifying body parts are these! The things people eat here are so terrifying! Is it heresy?
Amande's face turned pale in an instant, and he pointed at Musashi with a shocked expression, saying, "I don't eat what he eats!"
Musashi: "..."
He felt inexplicably offended.
Walked to the Luyi Station, glanced at Bailiu, and looked at Georgia. "Study, let's talk about the soul."
Georgia let out a breath, stood up, and sincerely thanked, "Thank you."
In the study, Bai Liu and Georgia were seen together. Previously, the fierce spades, who had been exuding killing intent, became calm after seeing Georgia. He didn't intervene or stop them from beginning to end. Mu Sichen, who was watching the show, approached and poked Spades with his elbow, "Hey, why were you so alert before, and now you're not worried about Bai Liu and Georgia running away?"
Spades raised his head and glanced at Mu Sichen, speaking in a calm tone: "Won't run."
Mu Sichen was excited: "Why? You were so alert before."
"When Bai Liu mentioned him before, I felt desire," Spades lowered his eyelids and answered seriously, "but after seeing him, I don't feel any desire anymore."
Mu Sichen was full of question marks as he listened: "...what does that mean?"
Liu Jiayi, who had been silently watching the show all along, couldn't help but =????=.
When talking about Georgia before, the desire was not directed towards Georgia as a person, but towards his money. When seeing Georgia in person, instead of seeing money, Bai Liu naturally had no desire.
Black Spade is really perceptive when it comes to Bai Liu's feelings. Even though they don't understand at all, they can still sense Bai Liu's personal emotions in front of Black Spade.
Liu Jiayi quietly holds a cup and drinks, sighing - if Bai Liu ever has a secret, it's estimated that they will be discovered by Black Spade as soon as they step through the door.
Tang Er looked towards the study, and the tension that had just dissipated resurfaced.
...I wonder how Bai Liu will negotiate with Georgia.
Inside the study room.
Bai Liu sat on the sofa in front of the bookcase, while Georgia sat on a chair. At first, he felt a bit repulsed by the slightly dim atmosphere of the study and the layout, which reminded him of that dream.
But as George turned around on the side of Bai Liu, when the lamp fell, warm orange-colored light filled the room, and Georgia was stunned.
There were two jackets on the sofa in this room, one of them was spades, and the other was worn by Tang Er. There were also several books scattered on top, with Mu Ke's handwriting on them. There was a fruit plate on the desk, filled with fruit candies, sugar oranges, and melons. Next to it was a half-eaten orange, and a small pile of melon shells. It was obvious that Liu Jiayi and Mu Sichen did this.
A lively and bustling atmosphere overwhelmed the scene.
"Sorry, the study hasn't been cleaned up yet," Bai Liu gestured for Georgia to sit down, "Is it okay?"
Georgia completely relaxed and chuckled lightly, following Bai Liu's gesture and sitting down. His tone even carried a sense of nostalgia, saying, "It's fine."
"...When I was young, I worked at the bureau with Amande and had no time. The house was also in a mess."
"I admit that I was wrong to deceive the soul currency by borrowing the excuse of a soulmate." Bai Liu sat down and had a good attitude, saying, "...If..."
"Are you kidding me?" Georgia teased, smiling. Her eyes and eyebrows softened under the warm yellow light, and that serious and rigid feeling was diluted in this atmosphere. "Isn't he my soulmate?"
He stared at Bai Liu, who also smiled, "Indeed."
"You mean, when I made the soul exchange?"
"Hmm." Georgina lowered her long lashes as she recalled, her tone filled with realization, "Although at first I was indeed angry and wary, I was afraid of hurting the people I cared about by using my soul."
"But he has always been protecting them, even better than I do."
Georgia looked up at Bai Liu, "Whether it's Gurolun, Amande, or Lu Yizhan."
"Guloren indeed cannot have a crown prince whose soul is controlled by others," George's tone was calm, "but I often wonder, am I really suitable to be the monarch of this nation?"
"The innocence and courage they had in longing for the path they chose, I have completely worn away over the years."
"... Recently, I returned to Gororen, and everyone welcomed me with joy, embracing me and praising me for making the right decision. They should not have closed themselves off and lived a life of peace here. They should face the world and accept all the challenges it brings."
"I should have felt grateful for it."
"Georgia remained silent for a long time and continued softly, 'But all I feel is fear.'"
"Over the years, I have witnessed more heresy and tragedy, and my fear has grown. I have slowly become like the citizens of ancient Golorun, wanting to fully protect them and shield them from the dangers of this world."
"Even Amande standing next to me and fighting alongside me makes me uneasy."
"I know this is wrong." Georgia lowered her gaze to her empty hands. "But what is right that can last for a thousand years?"
“没有任正确可以持续千年。”白柳平淡口回答，“又为什么要追寻持续千年的正确呢？”
“人只能存续百年，能追寻年的正确，就已经是非常了不起之事了。”
Georgia was taken aback.
"The only thing I know that has lasted for a thousand years," Bai Liu looked up and said calmly, "is the evil god."
"But for everyone, his existence is a mistake."
"It has lasted for a thousand years, in the pursuit of a certain correct existence. To put it another way, perhaps the pursuit of a certain correct existence that lasts for a thousand years will eventually lead to an extreme resembling that of the Evil God."
"- Just like if a nation seeking to protect its citizens for a thousand years from all harm, that protection would turn into harm."
"Just like the ancient Grolon."
Georgia fell into silence.
The noise of Land Postal Station selling things came from outside the door. Bai Liu turned off the lights and stood up, ready to go out: "Personally, I think I am still very suitable to be a king."
"... Why..." Georgia asked softly in the darkness.
White Willow calmly replied, "Because he is a good person with a brain."
"One's decisions may not always be absolutely correct, but they will always try to avoid harming others, and that is enough."
The Lu Station knocked on the door: "Are we finished chatting? I'm ready to cook!"
"Yes." Bai Liu pushed open the door, glanced at the inquisitive Lu Station, and said, "We have reached an agreement."
Luyi Station looked at the normal expression on Georgia's face as she followed Bai Liu out, and he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that we've reached an agreement."
Georgia took off her coat and hung it on the hanger, then naturally took the dish from Luyi Station's hand: "I'll help with the cooking."
Lu Station was shocked and instinctively wanted to grab it back: "No need, Georgia!"
Georgia looked at him with a pale face, but held it in her hands. It seemed like she didn't use much strength, but the vegetable bag quietly shifted towards his side: "Since I am a guest here, there is no reason for the host to do everything themselves."
"...It's not easy for you to come to our place as guests." Lu Yizhan smiled, his subordinates secretly exerting their strength and quietly pulling the food bag towards this side. "I have always been the one cooking, without letting guests lend a hand. You all can rest well and wait to taste my culinary skills."
The vegetable bag has been moved back again.
Georgia's tone became colder: "Mr. Lu, I have studied the local cuisine seriously. Amanda can testify that my culinary skills are also quite good. Since it's difficult for me to be a guest here, why don't you take a day off and taste my cooking?"
The rural post station smiled and said, "Really? I don't believe it."
"Bailiu also praised the dishes I made for having a homely taste, and since you have come from a distant place as an esteemed guest, there is no reason for the esteemed guest to cook."
菜袋来我往，乔治亚和陆驿站两个人客气打了几轮机锋，菜袋就像是拔河绳一在间来来，就是没有落到谁手里。
"Is this the pulling before the top tactician?" Muke seemed to have some understanding, his gaze solemn, "Not hurting either side while dragging for so long."
Mu Sicheng stared with widened eyes and exclaimed, "What on earth is happening here?"
Liu Jiayi scrutinized for a while and offered a serious comment, "Perhaps it is cultural exchange."
