Chapter 87 - Ant Skit Episode 9: Advocate

????:...Although Ah Jin is a liar and a criminal!... A terrible one, but nonetheless she is one...But she performed these actions under duress. That terrible duo, Lei Xing and her idiotic double terrorized and coerced her into this criminal activity. Therefore Ah Jin is innocent and should be pardoned BUT the masterminds should never be acquitted! They should be locked up!... If we let them go free, then it will be too late to serve their due justice after they kill someone! ~Namely me, they have been trying but thankfully have kept failing~  ...You, as a leader have the mandate to protect the masses from such evil and so should never be biased. A crime is still criminal regardless of the motivations behind it or how pretty or maybe adorable the criminals are ????. They should still be held accountable and punished! I demand that these criminals be brought to justice today! With that being said, I order you as the enlightened one-...~ Okay, maybe not that one, he'd probably punch me in the face or kill me ???? ...No! Can't be scared, someone must advocate for justice!  ???? How about this?~ ...I order you as the BESTFRIEND of your trusted advisor to Lock Her Up!????...~ Yes that one's much better, at least he won't kill me hahaha~   *Jots it down in his notepad*  ????... The execution can be scheduled for a later date. Failure to comply will resu-

Tung Mei : Who are you talking to? *Standing in doorway holding door*

????: *Jumps* I wasn't talking!

Tung Mei : ????...

????: ????...No one...Anyway, why are you in my room?!

Tung Mei : *mumbles* You make it sound like I want to be here. *Closes the door and casually strolls into the room and sits on the bed*

????: ???? What do you w- *Tung Mei ???? at him* ...Hehe~ I mean, how can I help you?"

Tung Mei : *sigh* I heard you are quite close to Author...

????: I wouldn't call it close...She doesn't even remember my name ????

Tung Mei : I need a favor

????: A favor? From me? ????

Tung Mei : *frowns* Can you go tell her to get me and Yong ge together already. All this push and pull is tiring. 

????: Maybe the push and pull is a sign he doesn't see you that way...

Tung Mei : He likes me!

????: Perhaps...but not just that way....Why don't you go ask your "Xing jie" to do it? She's close to Author, she even gets to hang out in her office all the time ????...

Tung Mei : *sigh* Xing jie won't do it...She'll tell me to move on...

????: *sits down beside her* That's a great idea... There are some new good guys coming into town. I hear there's even a  foreign prince too...Why not move on with him and then move to another country? New life, new space, new you! Your Xing jie knows best and wants the best for you. That prince is the best option...

Tung Mei :???? I don't want to...and even if I did move on with that prince, I'll still live here you know????...

????: Oh...I see ????

Tung Mei :???? So will you do it or not?

????: ???? Hmm...What do I get in return?

Tung Mei : You're still alive, aren't you? 

????: *mumbles* Blackmailing is not how you ask for a favor...

Tung Mei : I am still keeping your secret, aren't I?...

????: Fine...then delete the picture and we have a deal ????.

Tung Mei : When I see progress, then we have a deal.

????: Then go talk to Author yourself or persuade your stubborn "Xing jie" to do it. No delete, no deal! 

Tung Mei : ???? You-!

????: *Scurries to the corner* You can kill me if you want, but then you'll never get progress! Author listens to me, I even got fired and promoted at the same time! I'm the commentator! So-

Tung Mei : Fine...I don't need it anyway. *Brings out phone, shows ???? the picture and deletes it*

????: Let me confirm!

**Tung Mei ???? and tosses phone to ????* ???? catches it and searches through phone**

Tung Mei : See, I deleted it.

????: Okay, we have a deal! 

**???? hands phone back to Tung Mei and stretches out a hand smiling for a handshake* Tung Mei ???? at ????'s outstretched hand and gets up**

Tung Mei : Just so we're clear, I expect to see progress and soon. I'm sure you are aware I don't need that picture to handle you. At most, I'll get in a bit of trouble...but that's nothing new so-

????: I am an upright individual who never turns my back on others, unlike a certain someone...so you can trust me! ????

Tung Mei : ????...A bit of advice, you better stop bothering Xing jie or you will really die. It's only be a matter of time before she flips out...

????: I am not bothering her. I am only...only fighting against corruption and injustice! ????

**Tung Mei ????, shakes her head and leaves the room and  ???? sighs in relief**

????: Ahem!...Where was I? *looks at notepad* Yes, Failure to comply will result in your dismissal! We, the masses will demand for your resignation!... ~ Is that too much? ???? No, it's reasonable ~...

*???? Nods, scribbles in notepad, reads his notes and then rehearses from the top*
