"I really didn't make it up. My life is in your hands now. If I wanted to make it up, why didn't I make it up better? Instead of lying to you with such a poorly written story."
The old man said helplessly under his pressure.
He no longer wanted to maintain the dignity and confidence of a superior, nor did he want to be the so-called advantageous party in the negotiations. He just wanted to end the conversation quickly, return to his sea of consciousness, and continue to sleep without worrying about anything.
"........Forget it, I'll just trust you this time. If I find out later that you've hidden something from me, then I..."
While Chu Lingxiao was using his aura to oppress him, he also took advantage of the moment when his attention was elsewhere and his psychological defenses were at their weakest to secretly observe his inner thoughts with his mental power.
Although it was very strange, he really didn't find any psychological fluctuations that showed he was lying, so he just let it go. The old man also took the opportunity to quickly return to his sea of consciousness.
"Ling Xiao?"
As soon as Chu Lingxiao turned around, he saw Gu Qingze standing not far away from him.
"Well, did you see what happened just now?"
He didn't believe that Gu Qingze came at such a coincidence that he arrived just as the old man's afterimage disappeared.
"I see."
Gu Qingze said truthfully that even if he hadn't seen it, he already knew it based on the original novel. He wasn't surprised by this incident, but by something else...
His Ling Xiao looked very strange, something he didn't recognize...
In his impression, Ling Xiao has always been gentle, cute, shy, and occasionally a little arrogant. In short, he is completely different from now.
However, he only heard half of the content, which was what happened in the illusion that made Ling Xiao become like this.
Moreover, Ling Xiao let himself hear the conversation between him and the old man on purpose, because before he came to find him, he had already told him through the induction on the ring. If Ling Xiao didn't want him to hear it, he could just talk to the old man in his sea of consciousness, or change the time. There was no need to do this.
"Now that you've seen it, don't you have anything to say?
As Gu Qingze guessed, Chu Lingxiao deliberately designed this scene.
There was no panic in his eyes as if his secret had been exposed. He just asked calmly, as if asking another insignificant question.
"Nothing to say." Gu Qingze shook his head.
"Ling Xiao, I don't care about all this, as long as Ling Xiao is still Ling Xiao."
Hearing his words, Chu Lingxiao smiled, as if he had not expected it.
"I knew you would say that, Qingze."
He had clearly heard what I said before: I would kill him, but he did not show any fear. As usual, his eyes were full of tenderness.
Qingze is indeed a gentle person... he thought with emotion.
"Qingze, come here."
Hearing his words, Gu Qingze was stunned for a moment. Although he didn't know what to do, he still went over obediently.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked over, Chu Lingxiao grabbed his collar and kissed him forcefully.
“Hmm…?”
The surprise in Gu Qingze's heart was gradually replaced by passion. He couldn't help but wrap his arms around Chu Lingxiao's back and deepened the kiss.
Chu Lingxiao's hands wrapped around Gu Qingze's waist, as if he wanted to rub him into his body. Gu Qingze responded enthusiastically, forgetting everything around him.
