Qin Shi: I only work eight hours

Chapter 169 Water Play with Flame Spirit Princess

"This is a quote I should give you."

Xu Lin smiled.

Instead of getting angry, Yan Lingji laughed upon hearing this and began her performance.

"Does my benefactor prefer heat or cold?"

After more than ten breaths, Yan Lingji blinked her beautiful eyes and asked.

As soon as she finished speaking, she took out a few pieces of ice from under the table and put them in a bowl.

"I like all of them."

Xu Lin answered with a smile.

"is it?"

Yan Lingji asked with alluring eyes.

Before Xu Lin could reply, she put two small pieces of ice into her mouth.

……

More than half an hour later.

The east is gradually brightening.

Yan Lingji couldn't help but cough violently.

"Are you OK?"

Seeing this, Xu Lin asked with concern.

"It doesn't matter!"

Yan Lingji waved her hand.

Then, covering her neck, she lay down on the soft couch.

"But my sister is tired."

"I wonder how our benefactor plans to reward my sister?"

Yan Lingji asked tenderly.

"How would you like me to reward you?"

Xu Lin asked back with a smile.

After he finished speaking, he placed his hand on Yan Lingji's shoulder.

……

After a stick of incense.

As dawn broke, Yan Ling Ji suffered another defeat.

"you win."

Yan Lingji admitted defeat.

After saying that, she wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, closed her eyes, and began to sleep.

Seeing this, Xu Lin smiled and pulled Yan Lingji into his arms.

……

Three hours later.

Three poles in the sun.

Yan Lingji released Xu Lin's chest and stretched comfortably.

Although she only slept for three hours, it was the most comfortable sleep she had had since arriving in Korea!
Xu Lin radiated warmth and coziness, just like a furnace.

"You're taking advantage of your sister again!"

Seeing Xu Lin's hand on her waist, Yan Lingji said sullenly.

Then he pushed Xu Lin's left hand away and sat up.

"benefactor?"

Seeing that Xu Lin was sleeping soundly, Yan Lingji called out softly.

Xu Lin remained silent upon hearing the sound and continued to pretend to be asleep.

Seeing that Xu Lin didn't speak, Yan Lingji assumed that Xu Lin was still dreaming, so she crawled into the quilt and launched her attack.

She couldn't defeat Xu Lin in a head-on fight, but she refused to believe she could lose by sneak attacking him!
The air inside the blankets was not circulating, and Xu Lin was very hot, so Yan Lingji quickly broke out in a sweat.

Just as Yan Lingji was about to take another step forward, there was a sudden, urgent knocking on the door.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji was immediately displeased and gritted her teeth as she got out of bed.

Then he changed into men's clothing and walked straight to the gate.

"Who?"

Yan Lingji asked in an annoyed tone.

After saying that, she opened the door.

The first thing that came into view was a Shadow Guard assassin, holding two letters in his hand.

"Please deliver these two letters to Deputy Commander Xu."

The Shadow Guard assassin said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Yan Lingji frowned slightly, then took the letter and returned to Xu Lin's bedroom.

"What's the matter?"

Xu Lin asked curiously when he saw that Yan Lingji had returned so quickly.

"Someone wrote you two letters."

Yan Lingji answered.

After confirming that the sealing wax was fine, she handed the letter to Xu Lin.

Xu Lin tore open the envelope and stared intently at the contents of the letter.

The letter was written by Old Liu, a member of the Shadow Guard. He said he had found Yan Lingji's younger brother on the border of Chu.

He also attached a current portrait of Yan Lingji's younger brother.

Yan Lingji's younger brother looks a lot like Yan Lingji.

Does your younger brother look a lot like you?

After a brief pause, Xu Lin asked.

Yan Lingji was washing her face at the moment, and there was a lot of dirt left on her cheeks, which had all clumped up!
"They do look somewhat alike."

Yan Lingji answered while wiping her face.

After speaking, her beautiful eyes lit up, and she quickly walked towards Xu Lin.

"Have you found my brother?"

Yan Lingji asked, unable to hide her excitement. Xu Lin nodded and handed the portrait to Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji looked at the portrait with piercing eyes.

The boy in the portrait is about ten years old, and his eyebrows and eyes look very much like his mother's.

Xu Lin then tore open another letter.

The other letter was written by Yan Lingji's younger brother and was addressed to Yan Lingji. Therefore, Xu Lin only glanced at it twice before handing the letter to Yan Lingji.

Yan Lingji's younger brother said that if it weren't for the Shadow Guard, he probably wouldn't have survived this year. Therefore, he wants to join the Shadow Guard to repay their life-saving grace!

In his letter, Lao Liu also mentioned that Yan Lingji's younger brother wanted to join the Shadow Guard, but he had not yet agreed. This was a serious matter, and Xu Lin had to make the decision!
"Do you want him to join the Shadow Guard?"

After a cup of tea, Xu Lin asked unhurriedly.

Yan Lingji had gradually calmed down by this time.

So many years have passed, but Yan Lingwei, Yan Lingji's younger brother, still has the same handwriting as when he was a child!
"But I don't want him to receive special treatment."

Yan Lingji nodded and then said.

Although she only has one younger brother, Yan Lingwei, she is not a "brother-supporting demon"; on the contrary, she has always been very strict with her brother.

"rest assured."

“Even if you don’t say anything, I won’t have anyone give him special treatment.”

Xu Lin nodded.

After he finished speaking, he wrote a letter to Lao Liu, telling him to be strict with Yan Lingwei and not to give him any special treatment just because Yan Lingwei was his woman's brother!

After the messenger left, Yan Lingji sat down at her desk and wrote a letter to Yan Lingwei.

At this moment, Yan Lingji had lost all her charm and transformed into a cold and stern older sister.

In her letter, Yan Lingji instructed Yan Lingwei to perform well after joining the Shadow Guard, as the Qin laws were strict and he could not break them.

After the messenger disappeared from sight, Xu Lin looked at Yan Lingji.

"I wonder how Ling'er plans to thank me?"

Xu Lin asked with a smile.

"Isn't my benefactor asking a question he already knows the answer to?"

Yan Lingji smiled alluringly.

Then she swayed her hips as she went to the bathroom.

Xu Lin smiled upon hearing this, threw off the covers, and went to the bathroom as well.

"My benefactor, what brings you here?"

Yan Lingji looked in the direction of the sound, a hint of panic flashing in her beautiful eyes.

She had just sat down in the bathtub.

Why can't I come?

Xu Lin stood with his hands behind his back and asked in return.

After saying that, he came up behind Yan Lingji and placed his hand on her smooth and delicate shoulder.

……

Half an hour later.

Xu Lin and Yan Lingji went to the study.

After sunset, Xu Lin and Yan Lingji went to the kitchen.

It was past midnight when Xu Lin and Yan Lingji returned to their bedroom.

"Ling'er, who did you learn all of this from?"

After the near defeat, Xu Lin frowned and asked.

"Couldn't my sister have been self-taught?"

Yan Lingji placed her left hand on her waist and straightened her chest.

Even if she's never eaten pork, she's surely seen a pig run.

"There is ample time."

Seeing that Yan Lingji was about to press her advantage, Xu Lin immediately stopped her.

He refused not because he was exhausted, but because he disliked bloody battles.

……

the other side.

Anping Jun, Longquan Jun, and the others had just woken up.

"What time is it?"

"Why isn't it dawn yet?"

Seeing that it was very dark outside, Anping Jun rubbed his forehead and said.

After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but cough a few times, waking up Lord Longquan.

Before long, Longquan Jun and the others woke up.

"My Lord".

"Some tire tracks on the ground are suspicious!"

The guard reported respectfully.

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the tire tracks not far away.

"Okay, I see."

"Go and check the military pay."

Anping Jun was taken aback upon hearing this, and then immediately gave the order.

"promise!"

The guards immediately accepted the order.

"Fourth brother."

“We slept until now, and suddenly so many new tire tracks have appeared on the ground.”

"If I'm not mistaken, Nightfall made its move last night!"

Anping-kun lowered his voice.

"should be."

Longquan Jun nodded in agreement.

After confirming that the military pay had not been short, Anpyeong-kun ordered the advance to continue.
