You're really speaking like a human being!
"Then why did you bring me here again this time?" Yu Ling asked.
Seeing that Yu Ling was angry but dared not speak out, Gao Zhuoyi smiled again and added fuel to the fire:
"I've only heard about it from them, and it's not enough. I wanted to bring them over so I could see them in person."
Yu Ling: That's too much!
Do you want me to put on a live singing and dancing performance for you, or tell you a stand-up comedy routine? Do you really think I'm here to entertain the public?
Although he had long known that Jiang Zhicheng's nemesis loved to plant spies, he never imagined that these weren't spies at all; they were practically rats! They were rampant around him.
She was genuinely angry, but also genuinely unable to win. Yu Ling, somewhat resigned, asked, "Shall we silence them after we've finished watching?"
"What do you think?" Gao Zhuoyi asked instead of answering.
“…Destroy, because I know too much.” Yu Ling’s worldly-wise gaze and her attitude of letting herself be disposed of made the group of undercover agents around her laugh again.
Don't be fooled by his thick eyebrows and big eyes; he's just like my master—a two-faced fellow.
Gao Zhuoyi couldn't help but smile, looking at Yu Ling felt like looking in a mirror.
Some people don't like people who are exactly like them, while others like them very much. He must be the second type. No matter how you look at him now, he seems like a comedian.
However, he had a better background, while the other party had climbed up from the bottom step by step.
"Look what this is?"
Gao Zhuoyi took a small cube out of his pocket.
Yu Ling looked up and saw that it was the seal that Luo Qi had lost. How did it end up in his hands?
"Could it be that the person who stole the seal..." was also an undercover agent planted by you?
Before Yu Ling could finish speaking, Gao Zhuoyi nodded knowingly.
This means that all the little tricks he played with the underground party have been exposed to them. He's doomed! How can he continue playing this game?
You win!
"...I admit defeat."
Yu Ling's once upright back has now lost all confidence. She's really embarrassed herself. To be honest, her face is burning. Luckily, she's using the original owner's face, so it's still not really his!
"I'm afraid you've already planted spies on Jiang Zhicheng's side, so I probably won't need to betray my boss again. However, I still want to try a little harder..."
Yu Ling's eyes were fixed on the 100,000—no, on the seal in Gao Zhuoyi's hand—as she uttered familiar lines.
"I am proficient in all the arts, including music, chess, calligraphy, and painting; I am fluent in several languages; I have some knowledge of antiques; and I can drive various vehicles skillfully. I don't believe you don't have a use for me!"
Gao Zhuoyi: "Too little."
Yu Ling: "I can learn it on the spot."
Gao Zhuoyi: "I mean you underreported."
There are also things like washing clothes and cooking, making furniture, seeing doctors and dispensing medicine, climbing walls and trees, singing opera and dancing with swords, etc., which you haven't mentioned yet.
Yu Ling added, "As long as you don't kill me..."
The lines were still very familiar, and Gao Zhuoyi quickly replied, "What do you do when I tell you to do it?"
Okay, that's confirmed. There's definitely a mole of yours among Jiang Zhicheng's bodyguards.
Yu Ling nodded vigorously. Yes, I am... the original owner of this body, Zhao Zhongkai, and I am just that shameless.
This scene, witnessed by the undercover agents around Gao Zhuoyi, inevitably sparked further speculation: "This kid is too direct!"
Even Gao Zhuoyi hadn't expected Yu Ling to have such a shameless personality, which was quite different from his own.
"That's not an option either." Gao Zhuoyi didn't mince words. Since Yu Ling couldn't escape anyway, it was worth keeping her around like a monkey to play with. "I've already used up this seal. Find a chance to return it to Luo Qi."
"If you trust me, then of course there's no problem," Yu Ling said.
Gao Zhuoyi smiled: "Then 100,000 silver dollars?"
Yu Ling fell silent again. Did this old man really have to hand over a mere 100,000? But how did he know?
Fine, I'll risk my life for the money!
"Of course it's for you."
"Stay here with me for the next few days. I'll send you back to Jiang Zhicheng's place after I've had my fun. I think you should know that no one trusts anyone who leaves my place," Gao Zhuoyi said.
This is a blatant threat!
Yu Ling thought to herself: It seems that Jiang Zhicheng will no longer treat her as a harmless person. From now on, apart from working for Gao Zhuoyi, she will be an enemy of the world!
Oh, except for Nan Miaoyin, the female lead who's sometimes an enemy and sometimes a friend.
Yu Ling had made up her mind, and her expression gradually softened. She said calmly but firmly, "Alright, is there anything I can do for you?"
Gao Zhuoyi also looked at Yu Ling, something seemed to flash in his eyes, and he was about to speak.
At this moment, Yu Ling suddenly said, "I don't need to use my looks, do I?"
Yu Ling's words caused the surrounding air to freeze for a moment. He then realized his slip of the tongue and quickly said:
"Well... well, please don't kill me off, no, I mean, don't pass me on to someone else, especially Nan Miaoyin!"
It sounded like a plea for mercy, but the words sounded strange. Gao Zhuoyi handed the seal to Yu Ling and said calmly, "I am not interested in men, and even if I were, I wouldn't be indiscriminate in my choice."
Yu Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief, having escaped a disaster. He had gotten himself into so much trouble just because of his jealousy; he really wished he were dead!
...Anyway, this world is still meaningless.
The system was still watching the drama unfold in its own space, enjoying the peaceful and tranquil world before the purchase of a body. Little did it know that its host had already begun to slack off and try to survive.
Yu Ling was led into a room. The room was simply furnished. Apart from two beds, there was only a wardrobe, a table, and a sofa. That was all.
Sitting on the bed, Yu Ling looked at the man standing opposite her. He looked to be about twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses and with a pale face.
This is a young teacher, who looks to be in his twenties or thirties.
The man looked nervous, his fingers clenched into fists. He feigned composure and glanced coldly at Yu Ling: "I really don't know how someone like you could win Mr. Gao's favor."
"Hmph!" the man sneered. "Your life has been on someone's radar for a long time. We captured you this time to actually save you, don't misunderstand, Mr. Gao!"
Hey buddy, the way you're acting makes me think the wrong thing. You and your Mr. Gao aren't having an affair, are you?
Yu Ling asked, "Could it be that Young Marshal Ji has done something again?"
The man was startled: "You...how did you know?"
Now it was Yu Ling's turn to be dumbfounded. He had only made a guess out of guilt because he had been targeting Young Marshal Ji recently.
Seeing that Yu Ling's expression of shock was genuine, even more so than his own, the man explained:
"Mr. Gao and Marshal Ji have a close relationship, but Marshal Ji looks down on Mr. Gao, who is only a few years older than him, so he often sends us to keep an eye on him."
"I see, Mr. Gao is truly... well, he's always prepared for the worst," Yu Ling exclaimed sincerely, though he wanted to say that this man was really cunning.
