Today, I Have Yet to Become a Doll

Song Mingchuan was silent, the wrinkles on his aged face were deep, his eyelids drooped, and even without saying a word, he inexplicably gave off a sense of seriousness.

Chu Huaijin beside him spoke, "Team Leader Yu, I understand your meaning, but the game aspects are the responsibility of the evaluation team. It's better for the security team members to focus on their primary duties first."

Yu Yaqing frowned, "I know, the security team's primary task is to ensure the safety of all members of the research team, but if we don't arrange for them to enter the game, their game experience will be zero. If they enter the game in the future, it will be very disadvantageous…"

"If they were willing to enter the game, why didn't they join the evaluation team in the first place?" Professor Song suddenly asked her.

Yu Yaqing was stunned.

"Your suggestion is just wishful thinking," Song Mingchuan said bluntly. "The biggest reason your team members joined the security team is because they don't want to enter the game."

Yu Yaqing's expression turned slightly annoyed, but considering the other party was a highly respected senior, she suppressed her anger and said, "Professor Song, my team members and I are not people who are greedy for life and afraid of death!"

"Isn't being greedy for life and afraid of death a good thing?" Song Mingchuan lowered his eyes, his voice calm. "May I ask, how many people in this world are not greedy for life and not afraid of death?"

Chu Huaijin stood up to ease the atmosphere, saying to Yu Yaqing, "Team Leader Yu, you can discuss it with your team members before making a decision. The number of people in the evaluation team has been reduced a lot, and we do need to supplement it with new people. If you insist, I will consider transferring people from your team."

Yu Yaqing solemnly nodded, "I will go back and convey this message to them."

Someone knocked on the door outside.

The assistant pushed open the door and asked, "Professor, the candidates for Game No. 21 have arrived. Do you want to see them now, or should we have them wait?"

"Let them come in," Song Mingchuan replied, then looked at the four women in front of him. "You can go back now. Thank you for the information you provided to the research team."

Everyone bid farewell to Professor Song and left the temporary research room.

As she walked, Yu Yaqing felt a surge of anger in her heart. She was still bothered by what Professor Song had said earlier.

She believed in her team members. They just lacked opportunities for training. If they entered the game, their performance might not be worse than that of the evaluation team!

However… recalling what Hu Ya had done in the game, Yu Yaqing couldn't help but hesitate.

At this moment, a group of people walked towards them.

All kinds of men.

Tall, short, fat, thin, of all shapes and sizes: agile gymnasts, calculating bank financial managers, fierce-looking strong men, nimble and quick-witted skinny youths…

As they brushed past, someone whistled at Zhu Zhu.

Yu Yaqing frowned in displeasure, wanting to warn them, but before she could speak, Zhu Zhu stopped her.

Zhu Zhu silently shook her head at her.

It was better to avoid trouble if possible.

Besides, she hadn't suffered any loss. She would just treat it as if a fly had flown by.

Yu Yaqing frowned and glanced at those people, suppressing her anger and leaving with her companions.

Bai Youwei, on the other hand, turned her head to take another look.

She stared at the back of one of them, her gaze slightly lowered, sliding down to the other person's hands—

She saw a pair of white gloves.

In the sweltering August heat, he didn't mind wearing a pair of gloves, making people curious about his profession or identity.

At the moment, one could only see that the other person was slender, on the thin side, with a calm temperament, exuding a hint of coldness, and maintaining a distance from everyone.

"Weiwei, let's go." Su Man called to her from the front.

Bai Youwei responded and slowly followed them, leaning on her crutches.

Little did they know that after Su Man called out to her, the men behind them were also discussing them.

"The benefits at this base are pretty good, they even have cripples. How rare."

"…She's actually quite pretty."

"Don't mess with that cripple. You guys are new here, you don't know. The one who trades props for puzzle pieces is that woman! She has a lot of props!"

"Really? I can't tell…"

The man wearing white gloves looked at Bai Youwei's back, his expression thoughtful…
