2825 Picked Up

Qiao Mu glanced at the two individuals before her.

To be precise, she still couldn't discern their appearances beneath the layers of grime that covered their bodies, faces, and hands. They resembled individuals who had been dredged out of the foulest sewers, emitting such a pungent odor that it almost made Miss Qiao roll her eyes.

"You both reek," Qiao Mu remarked candidly, casting a critical eye at Mo Lian and Duan Yue.

"You've managed to make them stink as well!"

The quartet, whom Miss Qiao had dubbed "stinkin' tails," exchanged silent glances.

Duan Yue rolled up his sleeve and took a tentative sniff. "Do I really smell bad?"

"It's unbearable!" Qiao Mu retorted with indifference. "Clean yourselves up before approaching me."

Mo Lian and Duan Yue, in somewhat better shape, reappeared after a 10-minute bath.
