Shuqi was somewhat surprised that the Bee King would ask such a question. She had already prepared herself to spend time arguing and negotiating with him anyway—after all, she happened to have free time right now, didn't she?
In her view, the Bee King would likely try to haggle with her for half the day. She never expected him to accept so quickly. Since he had asked so clearly, however, Shuqi felt there was nothing she couldn't say, so she replied: "Just now, the Bee Queen said she wants to work for me for free!"
As for whether she would actually make them work for free in the end, that remained to be seen. She wasn't a ruthless exploiter like Xitong; having been caught in the rain herself, when she was in a good mood, she didn't mind holding an umbrella for others who were also caught in the rain.
