"sorry."

Fan Xuanye silently apologized and reached out to close the door tightly again.

He couldn't do it; he couldn't give Xiong Ruoyou happiness.

Mytel still has his mother; he must go back and also provide Mytel with intelligence. He and Xiong Ruoyou are on opposing sides.

Refusing now will only cause temporary pain, but agreeing now will surely cause heart-wrenching pain when the truth is revealed in the future.

He closed his eyes to calm himself down before walking to his desk, resuming his previous expressionless state, and turning on the computer.

...

"I am the head of the research department. Although it may sound like an ordinary position, I am quite important."

Mu Qingyun listened to Ling Rui's words in the entrance hall and nodded slightly to show that she understood.

Once inside Ling Rui's apartment, she turned on the lights, scanned the room with her eyes, then suddenly reached out and turned off the lights, quickly walking in and pulling all the curtains shut.

The room, which was bright during the day, suddenly became dark.

Mu Qingyun watched Ling Rui's actions, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

After Ling Rui carefully examined everything with sophisticated instruments, she felt relieved, put away what she was checking, and turned to look at her, saying, "Come in."

"Why do I have to check everything when I get to my own home?" She took off her shoes and closed the door as she did so.

“My identity is special, so I have to be careful.” Ling Rui said, taking off her coat and tossing it aside. “They trust me quite a bit now, and I wonder how they would feel if I ran away with all of Mytel’s research data.”

It must be incredibly frustrating.

Mu Qingyun chuckled lightly; she had learned this lesson the hard way before.

At that time, the small border country was poor in resources but had outstanding fighting power. She did not take such a barbarian seriously. Unexpectedly, the barbarian turned out to be quite intelligent.

She selected a handsome young man who looked like he was from the Central Plains and placed him by her side. She was moved by the story the young man told her, which was the same as her childhood experience, and kept him behind.

Later, he took a topographical map of the Central Plains and related military deployments to the border.

When do you plan to leave?

Ling Rui took a bottle of water from the refrigerator for her. "Once you get what you need for this trip, I'll go back with you."

"Okay." Mu Qingyun reached out and took it, then opened it and took a sip.

"By the way, keep an eye on Chrison, he's a pervert." Ling Rui paused abruptly, looked her up and down, and then suddenly laughed, "Sorry, I forgot he only targets beautiful women."

Um?

She tilted her head to the side.

"Brother Mu, the face you chose is too ordinary." Ling Rui looked at her, and as she spoke, she walked forward and took a closer look at her face.

“Mediocrity goes unnoticed,” she replied casually.

Ling Rui nodded upon hearing this, "Indeed, otherwise, that guy Chrisson would definitely have his eye on you."

Mu Qingyun frowned as she thought about her brief encounter with Chrisson.

In her time, someone like Chrison was considered to have abducted a woman, and according to the law, he should have been beheaded and his head displayed in public. If Chrison had been one of her men, she would have certainly dealt with him properly.

"By the way, Your Highness, your room is over there, the one on the right. It has a bathroom, a bathtub, and a large bed. You can rest well first, and I will find an opportunity to take you to the prison."

Ling Rui smiled elegantly, "If you want to eat, you can go downstairs and buy it yourself, or you can order it to be delivered. I have a party tonight, so I'll be leaving in a bit."

"good."

"Then I'll go back to my room and catch up on some sleep. Call me if you need anything." Ling Rui took off the pendant from her neck and casually placed it on the table.

She'd agreed to stay up all night, so she had to make sure she didn't fall asleep halfway through.

Mu Qingyun went to the bedroom on the right. The bedroom was quite large, especially the bathroom, which not only had the necessary facilities but also a huge bathtub big enough to fit two people.

She walked to the window and looked down at the view below the apartment.

Ling Rui's apartment is in a high-end residential area with a great location. Her apartment is on the 20th floor, and from there, you can have a complete view of the scenery below.

After admiring it silently for a while, she suddenly pulled the curtains shut.

Although it was beautiful, in her eyes, it was far inferior to Capa Dome.

...

"Qi Luo, a large number of fighter jets from Capa Dome have gathered around the planet. They have something to say about this."

As soon as the principal returned, he sought out Su Qiluo to discuss the current situation.

"I will also go to the Cappa Dome Star Zone. If anyone dares to invade, I will not let them off easily." Su Qiluo's words sounded domineering, after all, he himself did have that strength.

"Alright, then I'll leave it to you." The principal nodded with satisfaction. With Qi Luo around, he could indeed feel much more at ease.

"You two, one inside and one outside, you really can't stop," the principal said, feeling somewhat guilty.

"With great power comes great responsibility, we all understand." Su Qiluo didn't seem to mind, and even offered a few words of comfort to the principal.

"However, I am quite curious, why do you think she is the best person to do this?" The principal turned to look at him and asked the question that had been on his mind.

Hearing this, Su Qiluo smiled and said, "She said it herself."

"You believed what she said?" The principal was quite puzzled. In fact, he had been very suspicious when Su Qiluo first told him about this.

Going undercover in Mytel is no easy task; it's fraught with traps, and the consequences of one wrong step are predictable.

"I believe you," Su Qiluo replied firmly, her eyes filled with unwavering conviction.

All right.

Seeing his expression, the principal sighed, turned his gaze to the distance, and felt the calm and tranquility before the storm.

...

Meanwhile, in a secluded ancient castle in Mytel.

Looking at the bruises and marks all over her body in the mirror, Mu Xueyao expressionlessly picked up the ointment that the servant had placed on the table early that morning and vigorously smeared it on herself.

She has now returned to where she started. No one is allowed to stay or enter Christon's house. She was woken up by knocking on the door before she was even fully awake.

After applying the ointment, she sneezed several times uncontrollably.

She had been soaking in the bathtub for too long last night, and with her last bit of consciousness, she managed to climb out of the tub, grabbed a blanket, tucked half of it under her and covered herself with the other half.

Before leaving, Christon left a message—

Don't touch my bed.

In the past, she would have definitely ignored him and even went to his bed, but after what Christon did to her yesterday, she dared not disobey him.

She was afraid that Chrisson would do something even worse to her.

Rubbing her slightly dizzy head, she got up, opened the door, and called to the servant who was walking in the corridor.
