"Oh, right, I remember that Brother Lingxiao took the initiative to accept the task of being the "temporary courtesan" in order to appease Brother Qingze."
Song Jinnian handed the Qilinghuanmeng Half Moon Ring to Chu Lingxiao.
"Hey, Brother Lingxiao, eat it first...and refine it."
Song Jinnian subconsciously wanted to say "eat it", but when he remembered Chu Lingxiao's previous reminder, he changed his words halfway through.
"After the refining is complete, I will guide Brother Ling Xiao in learning the basic functions of the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring. After all, it was made by Uncle Miehun himself, so there are some small ingenuity designs. The usage method is different from other spiritual tools."
After Chu Lingxiao took it, he was about to inject his spiritual power into it when Gu Qingze grabbed his arm and stopped him.
"Ling Xiao, let me do it."
Chu Lingxiao was a little surprised. After all, when Song Jinnian chose Qingze as the "temporary top courtesan", he could still feel Qingze's resistance. Why did Qingze suddenly change his mind?
"You've already accepted the bet and lost, haven't you? Since we agreed to follow Brother Jinnian's choice, it's ungentlemanly to regret after the result is known."
Gu Qingze noticed his surprise and explained seriously.
In fact, the real reason is that he doesn't want Ling Xiao to take risks and is worried about Ling Xiao's safety...
However, there is no need to say this openly. After all, Ling Xiao loves him the same way, and it is very likely that he loves him even more. If Ling Xiao hears his words, it will be even more impossible for him to go.
"Qingze, you..."
Chu Lingxiao hesitated to speak. When did Qingze get the title of a "gentleman"?
"Ling Xiao, just let me go, otherwise my conscience will be uneasy."
Before Chu Lingxiao could think too much about what was wrong, he heard Gu Qingze say in a coquettish voice.
Chu Lingxiao hated to see him show this expression the most, so he didn't think too much about it and nodded in agreement subconsciously.
"...Oh well."
"I knew Ling Xiao was the best."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingze hugged him gently, then took the Qiling Huanmeng Half Moon Ring from Chu Lingxiao and began to inject his own spiritual power into it.
I saw a strange light gradually appearing on the ring, and as the light flowed, Gu Qingze had already begun to refine it.
Song Jinnian watched quietly from the side, feeling something strange in his heart, but he couldn't put it into words. He could only put it aside for the time being and not think about it anymore.
After a while, Gu Qingze finished refining. He looked at Song Jinnian and said, "Brother Jinnian, start now and teach me the function of this ring."
Song Jinnian nodded and began to explain in detail: "The first function of this magical dream half-moon ring is to create an illusion, making people fall into it and unable to extricate themselves. How to create an illusion specifically..."
Gu Qingze listened carefully, and from time to time tried to control the ring according to the method Song Jinnian said.
Under Song Jinnian's guidance, Gu Qingze quickly mastered several basic functions.
At this time, Chu Lingxiao was watching from the side, revealing a hint of complicated emotions.
He realized belatedly that Qingze did this not just for the simple reason of fulfilling his promise or else he would feel guilty about it, but also for his safety.
Although this plan seems to be very safe, there will always be danger and changes when you are in it, especially in the center of the secret - the brothel.
Chu Lingxiao felt a little annoyed. Why did he agree to let Qingze refine the ring? Now, he couldn't refute or refuse Qingze to be the "temporary courtesan". After all, the spiritual weapon that could avoid the body inspection was on Qingze.
Qingze can be extremely stubborn sometimes, and he would definitely not agree to let the ring be taken out and let him refine it.
Gu Qingze looked at Ling Xiao who was silent beside him, knowing that he had noticed something was wrong. He wanted to hold his hand to ease the atmosphere and apologize to him silently.
Unexpectedly, Chu Lingxiao dodged it without making a sound.
Gu Qingze realized that Ling Xiao was really angry.
It seems that he needs to coax him again, but it is indeed wrong for him to take advantage of Ling Xiao's lack of reaction and do it in advance...
But this was his only option. Once Ling Xiao realized the possible dangers in the brothel, how could he agree to let him go?
After a while, Chu Lingxiao took the initiative to hold Qingze's hand again.
This action surprised Gu Qingze. He was stunned for a moment, then took it back and held his hand.
"Ling Xiao, are you not angry anymore?"
He secretly used his spiritual power to transmit a message to test it.
"I'm not angry anymore. It's not worth it for someone like Qingze who makes me angry again and again."
"Now that things have come to this, we can only make more preparations for Qingze's departure to ensure his safety."
Chu Lingxiao also replied using spiritual power to transmit the message.
Gu Qingze felt a little aggrieved when he heard this, especially when Ling Xiao said, "People like Qingze make me angry again and again." But he didn't seem to have the right to feel aggrieved. After all, he did always make Ling Xiao angry, and Ling Xiao was right.
Chu Lingxiao noticed his emotions and patted his shoulder helplessly.
"I'm angry this time because Qingze considers my safety but ignores his own. Qingze knows that if you die, I won't be in this world..."
Gu Qingze quickly covered his mouth with his hands. Although he used spiritual power to transmit sound when talking to him and did not communicate directly, he still did so subconsciously.
Chu Lingxiao was a little surprised by his action, and even the voice transmission was interrupted.
"Hey? Brother Qingze, why did you cover Brother Lingxiao's mouth? I remember he didn't say anything just now... Could it be that you two were secretly using spiritual power to transmit whispers behind my back?"
Song Jinnian thought of a possibility and asked dissatisfiedly.
"No, Brother Jinnian is our friend. Friends must discuss things together."
Gu Qingze's body stiffened for a moment because he was guessed, and he felt a little guilty, but he still said it calmly with his superb acting skills.
"Really? Then why did Brother Qingze cover Brother Lingxiao's mouth just now?"
If I say that I miss the warmth of your brother Ling Xiao’s lips, so I use my palm to feel it, would you believe me?
Gu Qingze couldn't help but think divergently and came up with an outrageous answer.
"I covered Ling Xiao's mouth just now because I...saw a bug flying over and was afraid it would fly into Ling Xiao's mouth."
In the end, I found an even more outrageous reason to answer.
As soon as he said it, Gu Qingze wanted to withdraw, but there is no medicine for regret in the world, so he could only bite the bullet and continue talking.
The moment he finished speaking, he felt that he was finished. Unless Song Jinnian was a fool, he would definitely be able to tell that such an outrageous reason was just a perfunctory answer.
