Gu Qingze and Chu Lingxiao lay affectionately on the bed for a long time before they slowly tidied up their slightly messy clothes and left the room.
"Qingze, isn't it time to go check on Tilbury's condition? After all, it's been a night, so there should be more significant changes."
"Then, by the way, I'll explain to her the options we've discussed together, so she has more time to think and make a decision."
Chu Lingxiao patted his shoulder gently and said after pondering for a moment.
Gu Qingze turned to look at him and nodded slightly, "That makes sense. I'll go up and take a look."
After Chu Lingxiao watched him go upstairs again, he picked up a cup filled with clear spring water from the table and took a sip to moisten his dry throat.
Then he sat cross-legged there, intending to take advantage of Qingze's absence to concentrate on practicing for a while.
But who could have expected that just as he was about to concentrate on practicing, he heard a burst of hurried and heavy footsteps.
He opened his eyes helplessly and had to put his cultivation aside for the time being.
"Brother Lingxiao, long time no see!"
Chu Lingxiao looked up when he heard the voice, and saw Song Jinnian and Su Han walking slowly towards him, one in front and one behind, both of them still had a bit of the dusty air about them.
"haven't seen you for a long time.
Before he could finish his words, Song Jinnian sat down crookedly as if he was extremely tired.
Su Han looked at Chu Lingxiao, nodded politely to him, and then sat down.
"Oh, by the way, I forgot to count the days. It should have been a month now. Has Brother Qingze been brought back from the brothel? Why can't I see him?"
After Song Jinnian sat down, he picked up the cup on the table and drank all the water in it. He paused for a while before he spoke.
"I got it back. It's upstairs."
Chu Lingxiao answered, but his expression was a little hesitant.
Song Jinnian came back too suddenly this time. How can I quickly explain the matter of Chenluo to him?
Of course, he only hesitated for a moment before telling the key information truthfully.
"Brother Jinnian, Qingze made a good friend in the brothel and took pity on her, so he redeemed her. Her name is Jinluo."
"Because we only know you, Brother Jinnian, as our good friend in the demon world, we haven't asked for your consent to let her stay here temporarily... But don't worry, it's only temporary and she won't cause you any trouble soon..."
Song Jinnian interrupted him, his eyes sparkling, and he said expectantly, "Doesn't that mean I have a new friend?"
The focus has completely gone astray...
Chu Lingxiao couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, but he still showed a faint smile on his face and nodded slightly, which was regarded as an approval of Song Jinnian's statement.
"Great, can I go up and see her?"
Song Jinnian blinked her bright eyes, looked at him, and cautiously asked for his opinion.
"Well... not yet."
Chu Lingxiao thought for a moment and said slowly, after all, his younger brother Jinnian didn't understand the story they made up yet, and it would be bad if he got caught in the conversation with Jinluo.
"Really not possible?" Song Jinnian looked a little disappointed.
"It's okay, it will be done soon."
Chu Lingxiao moved closer to Song Jinnian and spent some time to briefly tell him and summarize everything about Chenluo, including the story they made up.
Song Jinnian was shocked after hearing this. "Brother Lingxiao, are you saying that Sister Jinluo fell in love with Brother Qingze even though she didn't know he was a man?"
"What's wrong? Could it be that Jinnian's brother discriminates against same-sex relationships?"
"Not really. After all, this kind of thing is nothing in the demon world. It's just... it seems that Brother Lingxiao isn't too surprised. Do you humans accept this kind of thing very well?"
Song Jinnian quickly waved his hands to explain, and then told all his doubts.
"I can't represent the entire human race." Chu Lingxiao smiled slightly. "Just like I think Brother Jinnian is good, it doesn't mean that the entire demon race is good. An individual can't represent the entire group."
"That's true. I was trapped in narrow linear thinking for a moment." Song Jinnian nodded in agreement.
"But...according to what Brother Lingxiao said, if I want to meet Sister Jinluo, do I also need to arrange a fake identity?"
"Well, Brother Jinnian, as an investor in a brothel, many of the courtesans are familiar with your face. Regardless of whether this story exists or not, Brother Jinnian must do this to be on the safe side." Chu Lingxiao looked at him and said.
"What kind of role should I play... I really can't think of one right now. How about Brother Ling Xiao just assign me one?"
Song Jinnian thought seriously for a long time, and finally shook his head, looked at Chu Lingxiao, and gave him a sincere smile that was without any gloom and sincere and pure.
"Brother Ling Xiao, just make your decision. I trust you."
After hearing this, Chu Lingxiao was silent for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement.
