Eavesdropping

Chaoge stared at Feng Wu. "…What a coincidence. There just happens to be Frost Essence in the terrain for the physical tryout?"

Feng Wu smiled at her.

"I see!" Chaoge smacked her own thigh. "You made this happen, didn't you? You asked Grand Secretary Fang to pick this terrain where that Frost Essence is, right?"

Feng Wu shrugged. "Grand Secretary Fang hasn't always been the vice-principal, has he? But I did suggest he choose Proud Snowfield for the physical tryout."

"Xiao Wu! You're incredible!" Duan Chaoge was amazed. She then gloated. "I overheard the other candidates complaining about this terrain earlier, saying it was too difficult. If they knew it was you —"

"Shhh —" Feng Wu shushed her with a finger.

Chaoge covered her mouth and stared at Feng Wu in bewilderment.

But one of Chaoge's good qualities was that she always followed Feng Wu's orders.

Feng Wu led Chaoge to the back of a snowdrift, and they sat down out of the wind.
