358 Wow, I am useless.

"I changed my mind. Let's just go to Ray's oath ceremony."

Penny stared at her Second Brother's serious face, her expression twisting a little..

Was there anywhere else Hugo could think of? Or did he really only have two options for tonight?

"Senior Brother, don't be like that." Ginnie pulled Penny's arm closer to her. "Don't worry. If you're worried about these guys, they won't try to hit on her -- I promise."

Hugo slowly narrowed his eyes at Ginnie. "Really?"

"Really." Her lips stretched from ear to ear before she moved her eyes to the group. A glint shone on the side of her tooth as her eyes lit up. "Hey, don't even dream of making my Penny uncomfortable! Otherwise... you're dead."

Ginnie's tone sounded dangerous and deadly at the end of her remarks, making Penny glance at her and the team. Seeing that the men cleared their throats and avoided Ginnie's face, Penny couldn't help but chuckle at her friend.

Back then, Ginnie wouldn't stop stuttering whenever she was overwhelmed or nervous. But now, it seemed that working with such men over time had brought out her "male" energy. Now she could intimidate them. Well, Ginnie's skills were respected and recognized even by other teams. Therefore, it was only natural she had quite a bit of power in the players' training and lineups.

As for Hugo, he couldn't help but smile in satisfaction. 'Good thing I invited Ginnie. I knew they would gawk at my sister like hungry piranhas."

"Haha." The groom-to-be laughed, his eyes falling on Penny. "Penny! It's good to see you again!"

Snapping her eyes to the groom-to-be, Penny grinned and walked toward him. "Me too, Captain. I'm really glad to see you again. Congratulations on your upcoming wedding, and thank you for inviting me tonight."

Like two old friends, Penny and the team captain shared a short hug. As they did so, all the men in the group fixed their eyes on Penny.

It wouldn't be bad to greet her like that as well, right?
