Chapter 57 Chapter 57 [VIP]
Chen Changqing didn't ask, and Wen Lingxia didn't know for a moment whether he should bite the bullet and tell the lies he had already made up.
Silence stretched between the two.
Chen Changqing poured himself a cup of tea, drank it in one gulp, and was the first to break the silence: "In that case, what does the Director want me to do?"
He actually didn't ask a single question.
I didn't ask. Could it be that I knew he was going to tell a lie, so I didn't want to listen?
Wen Lingxia felt an inexplicable panic in his heart, but he also felt that Chen Changqing was not a god after all, so how could he know everything.
He feigned composure and said, "Start with Ling Wuming. Investigate the people around him and those he's had contact with. The craftsman who learned from my father must have had a close personal relationship with him."
It’s not that Wen Lingxia didn’t instruct the people from the Star Forging Division to do it, but all the investigation results were clean, and the people involved with him were all in the Du’e Division, so Wen Lingxia really couldn’t get involved.
——When he made up his mind to find someone from Du'esi, everything was blocked by Zhou Zhi.
Zhou Zhi is the most favored minister around the eldest princess. He has the intention of becoming more powerful in the Du'e Division, and Wen Lingxia can do nothing about it.
Chen Changqing pondered for a moment and said, "Don't worry, Director. I will do my best to investigate the people around Ling Wuming. However, I can't guarantee that I will find him."
Wen Lingxia quickly said, "I believe in the Prime Minister."
Chen Changqing didn't say anything else and stood up to say goodbye.

While the two top bosses in the capital were investigating Ling Suye's life experience, Ling Suye and his group also arrived in the East China Sea smoothly.
It is worth mentioning that after learning that Ling Suye was going to the East China Sea, Ah Zhan, who had originally only attached 30% of his strength to Ling Suye, this time directly resided in the round bead in Ling Suye's palm.
"There are too many crises in the East China Sea. Even I can often sense some deadly dangers. Master is going there alone, and A Zhan is worried."
When Ah Zhan said this, Gu Xuanyou was in Ling Suye's carriage.
It should have been a very normal sentence, but because of Gu Xuanyou's stunned, bewildered and slightly lost mood, Ling Suye had the illusion that he was picking wild flowers on the roadside.
It just so happened that he had originally wanted to ask Ah Zhan to be their guide, so he quickly agreed and asked Ah Zhan to follow the team from a distance first, then he looked up at Gu Xuanyou.
Gu Xuanyou lowered his long eyelashes, as if all his thoughts were gathered together, tightly entangled, and then carefully placed in his heart.
He discovered that although he and his master had done everything and had a happy time chatting together in the evening, his master's feelings for him were different from his love and admiration for his master in his heart.
In the eyes of his master, he may be a slave, an alliance partner, or even a close friend with whom he can communicate intimately in times of crisis, but he is not someone who can accompany him throughout his life.
After all, the former... Ah Zhan can do it, and the young man Wu Qi who was in the City God before can also do it, and even Xie Qingnian and Zhou Zhi can be the master's good friends.
There is no difference between him and these people.
For a moment, Gu Xuanyou didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.
He should be happy to be a close friend whom his master is willing to trust;
After all, he had never dared to dream of this before. In the past three years as a slave, he felt that as long as he could watch his master from afar and serve him by serving tea and water, that was his greatest wish.
He has now fulfilled all these wishes.
But human hearts are greedy after all.
Gu Xuanyou wanted more. He wanted his master's gaze to linger on him for a moment, even if it was just a brief glance in his spare time. He felt that he would be extremely happy.
After all, the owner doesn't usually look at other friends this way.
Gu Xuanyou felt like he had reached a dead end.
He clearly has no right to fantasize about these things.
If it weren't for the master's rescue back then, he would have died long ago. Now it is great that he can stay with the master. He shouldn't be greedy.
Gu Xuanyou opened his eyes slightly, and happened to meet the eyes of Ling Suye who had been looking at him.
Ling Suye subconsciously glanced away first.
It was not until his eyes fell on the window lattice where light and shadow played a different role that Ling Suye came to his senses - he should, should not have done anything wrong, so why didn't he dare to look Gu Xuanyou in the eye.
But since they had already hidden themselves, going back to fight for revenge seemed a bit childish, so Ling Suye said, "With A-Zhan by my side, our safety in the outer reaches of the East China Sea is guaranteed."
Gu Xuanyou's eyes dimmed completely, but he still said "hmm" out of courtesy.
Ling Suye, who had been looking out the window, did not notice his emotions.
·
Gu Xuanyou didn't get off the carriage with Ling Suye until the evening when they had rested.
As soon as he got off, he saw Xie Qingnian who had also gotten off Lord Zhou Zhi's carriage. The two of them didn't know if they had telepathy or something, but they suddenly raised their eyes inexplicably and then their eyes met.
Xie Qingnian, who claimed to be an experienced person, showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, and even nodded to Gu Xuanyou in a very exaggerated manner from a distance.
After thinking about it, I gave him a thumbs up again.
Gu Xuanyou: “…”
He probably understood what Xie Qingnian meant. It was because he had always been in the same carriage with his master that he misunderstood.
After dinner, Xie Qingnian took advantage of the fact that Zhou Zhi was leading another Lord Si Xuan to discuss matters with the censor and the accompanying military officers, and quietly took Gu Xuanyou away.
Gu Xuanyou glanced at A Zhan who was squatting next to his master and didn't want to leave.
He was now arguing with himself, feeling that if he left like this, it would be like admitting that he had retreated.
But the next moment he felt that his idea was too immature. When it comes to love, there is no first come first served. It was just a sudden flash of inspiration at that moment.
So Gu Xuanyou stood up and said goodbye to his host, and followed Xie Qingnian away.
It was not until the two of them arrived at an uninhabited forest that Xie Qingnian looked at Gu Xuanyou with an obscene smile.
"Hey, your master is blind. Although he was quite powerful three years ago, he's lost all his strength now. You'd better take it easy and don't hit him too hard, otherwise he will definitely not be able to bear it."
Gu Xuanyou: “…”
It was already dark, and Xie Qingnian had walked a little far away to say some dirty words, so he couldn't see the bitterness on Gu Xuanyou's face for a while.
So he muttered to himself: "You're not saying anything, which means you're admitting that you were in the carriage too... I just saw that Ah Zhan. You were in his demon domain before, and I clearly saw you two had sex once. I was the first one to go in at that time. Although I didn't see the scene clearly, but the sight of you two lying naked under the same quilt, with you pinning Ah Ye down, must have happened!"
Gu Xuanyou was originally so grief-stricken that his blood was pouring out of his body. He almost laughed out loud when he heard this: "Before, I was forced by the situation."
His voice turned cold: "Since there is nothing important, I will go back first. The master hasn't had dinner yet."
Xie Qingnian's face was thicker than a city wall at this moment. He smiled and said, "Hey, we are all men, and you are my roommate. Although A Ye is my former roommate, he is now like a daughter who has been married off and spilled water. You are the one who is holding him now, so of course I have to make it clear to you."
Having said that, Xie Qingnian secretly took out an iron box from his sleeve. Gu Xuanyou's nose moved and he smelled a hint of fragrance.
It was the kind of sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance that wafted across the capital when the list of honors was posted.
"What is this?" Gu Xuanyou was about to leave when he was hooked by the smell. He thought that if it was made with osmanthus honey, the host might like it.
"It's a good stuff," Xie Qingnian said, "It's a specialty of the East China Sea, made with fish oil and sweet-scented osmanthus honey. It's... it can save your Ah Ye from suffering during that thing. But you have to use it sparingly. I didn't know the severity of the situation the first time, and the boss indulged me and kept silent. I didn't know he was in so much pain and bled so much... Anyway, your Ah Ye is not the kind of person who would speak up. You can use this in the future, but you must use it sparingly. I only have two cans. I suggested buying more, but the boss was afraid that if I bought too much, people would find out, so he only bought two cans. Now he gave Ah Ye one can. What should I do next?"
Xie Qingnian's words exploded in his ears, and Gu Xuanyou's hand seemed to be burned, and he immediately retracted it.
Xie Qingnian did not expect that Gu Xuanyou would be so disrespectful. He was unable to react in time and could only watch a box of high-quality oil fall to the ground and splash everywhere.
"Xuanyou, you!" Before he finished speaking, he saw Gu Xuanyou's stunned face. His always stubborn mind seemed to have sensed something. He didn't care about the box of things anymore, but stepped forward and put his arm around Gu Xuanyou's shoulders. "What's going on? You, you're not with Aye?"
Gu Xuanyou's cheek twitched, and before he could say anything, his bitter expression said it all.
But he still answered: "No."
The voice was so soft that if Xie Qingnian hadn't been so close to him, he wouldn't have been able to hear it clearly.
"I..." Xie Qingnian panicked. "I just found your mount running empty when I went to look for you this afternoon. I heard from the people at the Star Forging Division that you were in Anye's carriage, so I didn't disturb you... I'm sorry..."
Gu Xuanyou finally regained some strength: "It's okay. But the master doesn't like this kind of joke, so don't say it in front of him."
Xie Qingnian, who originally wanted to help Gu Xuanyou find out about Ling Suye's intentions, said: "..."
He now feels like he has found his beloved, and he wishes that all lovers in the world can finally get married. However, he does not know that the majority of people in this world suffer from unrequited love and are in love with each other.
Gu Xuanyou walked back step by step. After less than a cup of tea, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Quiet.
It was so quiet around that even the sound of wind blowing through the grass disappeared.
His heart immediately hung in his throat and he ran anxiously towards the camp.
At the same time, Xie Qingnian's frantic voice came from behind: "Xuan You, come back, there is danger!"
Gu Xuanyou knew there was danger in the camp without him telling him. But he ignored Xie Qingnian's advice and continued to run ahead.
Xie Qingnian thought that he would surely die if he acted so recklessly in the demon realm, so he quickly drew out his sword and stabbed it in front of Gu Xuanyou.
"bass--"
The sword stuck into the mud, and because the blade was soft, the hilt swung back and forth.
And Gu Xuanyou was finally forced to stop by Xie Qingnian.
Xie Qingnian quickly grabbed his arm and said, "Don't be impulsive, Xuanyou. I'm worried about someone just as much as you are. Besides, my boss is not only injured, but also... He's injured on top of his injuries. He must be in great danger, but we can't lose our composure. Only by staying alive can we have a chance to see them."
The author has something to say:
I'm focusing on new articles and want to collect advance payments. I'll start writing as soon as this one is finished:
Did I travel through time to learn C language?
*Main attack
The newly crowned top scholar Ye Rongchuan traveled through time and space and became a sophomore who was so poor that he couldn't afford to eat and had to work three jobs a day.
Ye Rongchuan: “…”
It’s just a part-time job, no big deal.
First job: tutoring children;
Second part: feeding horses in the arena.
For an ancient person who was well versed in etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy and mathematics, it was so easy!
But why is the third job a summer internship at a large company—the kind where I have to go to the client to hand over the work!
He doesn't know how to use a mobile phone, he can't use a computer, and C language is even more of a fantasy to Ye Rongchuan.
The young leader patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, Xiaoye. You've done similar projects before. Just follow that process."
Ye Rongchuan: "..." He was not afraid, but he felt that his leader would be scared after hearing it.
Facing a screen full of codes, Ye Rongchuan finally mastered ctrl+c/v after learning and applying them on the spot, and followed his leader to communicate with the client.
The moment the leader saw the person in charge of Party A, he pinched his philtrum.
——How could I meet this coding genius Shang Shixu!
He was sure that this person would be able to spot the loopholes in his code immediately! So he pretended to go to the bathroom, leaving the intern Xiao Ye alone in the meeting room to be scolded.
When he came back, everyone in the client's company was silent, with only the sound of the genius boss's fingers tapping on the keyboard.
Shang Shixu said to intern Xiaoye while typing on the keyboard, "Your code is very cute. I can't bear to change it, but it will be easy to make mistakes if I don't change it. I'll just make a simple change. Don't be angry."
Ye Rongchuan: “…”
She was even more angry because her 'husband' who had robbed her in her previous life had also come here, and he actually knew C language so well!
