Of course, Yu Qingyu desperately wanted to fix the misunderstanding.

The problem was, there wasn't any good way to do that.

Even if he were to tell Liu Wei the truth, what his mission actually was, and that he had no intention of completing it, would the man even believe him? Probably not. He didn't trust Yu Qingyu, after all.

What else could Yu Qingyu do, then?

He could try to change his attitude. Start acting as if he truly wanted to join the scavenger team.

But that wouldn't work either. Maybe it might convince Liu Wei and he would change his mind, not wanting Yu Qingyu on the team anymore… But Commander Qin would undoubtedly give him the job anyway. Ning Yanyao was only his subordinate, after all. Even if he trusted the man, he would still make his own decision. And the scavenger team needed more members.
