What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuqiu suddenly began to applaud.

She said sincerely, "I admire your attitude towards doing things. Even though you are not very smart and mostly rely on your intuition, you understand your shortcomings and are meticulous enough in doing things."

Lu Xiu remained silent for a long time before saying, "If someone heard your evaluation of me, they would definitely think you are ignorant of your own limitations and incredibly arrogant."

Gu Yuqiu said calmly, "The truth has always been this: God is dead. Doesn't that sound rather arrogant?"

Lu Xiu said, "I don't want to talk about these things with you. I'm just informing you of something: until your instability is resolved, I hope you and Lin Mushi don't have too deep a relationship."

Gu Yuqiu sighed, "That's really a troublesome matter."

"Where is the trouble?"

Lu Xiu looked at her profile and said slowly, "If you don't mind, I can solve the problem for you."

Gu Yuqiu shook her head and said, "You can't solve this problem."

Lu Xiu frowned and asked, "Not even the Special Affairs Bureau?"

"Yes."

Gu Yuqiu gave a slight, mocking smile, got up and walked into the ward, leaving behind her last words, filled with deep emotion.

"Who told me to be so good-looking?"

Chapter 115: Chapter 113 Probably an Evil God

Lu Xiu suddenly stood up, looking at Gu Yuqiu's back, his mouth slightly open as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he could only remain silent.

His many experiences over the years have given him enough confidence to utter absurd lies with a straight face, without any mental hindrance.

Even so, after a long period of thought, he still couldn't refute that statement.

Yes, human aesthetics vary greatly. Some people prefer plumpness that overflows from between the fingers, while others prefer a perfectly sized, delicate shape. Some appreciate tall figures, while others prefer petite, chubby girls...

These are all things that can only be addressed by seeking common ground while reserving differences; it is impossible to reach an absolute consensus.

Just like you think hot pot must be spicy, but I think clear broth is delicious enough. Chaoshan beef hot pot is the best. You eat the flavor of the ingredients, not the spiciness and numbing sensation.

Such disagreements are only natural, much like the famous saying about human joys and sorrows.

However, all of this lost its meaning when it came to Gu Yuqiu.

Anyone who sees her, anyone who makes eye contact with her, whether or not they utter a sound, will inevitably exclaim in their heart, praising her beauty.

If there were no moon in the world, then for poets, she would be the bright moon walking among humans.

That is the embodiment of a higher level of life that humanity yearns for.

Or perhaps it is a deity.

Lu Xiu had no choice but to remain silent.

……

……

"What did Director Lu say to you?"

As Gu Yuqiu entered, she sat by the window for a while before hearing this very soft voice.

Without turning around, she casually said, "It's nothing, just chatting for a bit."

Lin Mushi wanted to sit down next to her, but couldn't find a chair. Feeling a little uncomfortable, she looked down at Gu Yuqiu and said, "It was about yesterday, wasn't it?"

Gu Yuqiu thought for a moment and then hummed in agreement.

Going back to what Lu Xiu said earlier, the cause of everything was indeed the battle yesterday, and the consequences of that battle.

Therefore, her "hmm" cannot be considered a lie.

—Even if lying is something that doesn't bother her.

"I see..."

Lin Mushi's voice suddenly lowered, and he leaned close to her ear, whispering, "Would you like to hear about what happened to me yesterday?"

Whether intentional or not, the warm breath landed on Gu Yuqiu's earlobe, bringing a slightly strange sensation.

Gu Yuqiu didn't answer, but turned her head to look at her and asked, "Besides, are you flirting with me?"

Lin Mushi took a step back awkwardly and said aggrievedly, "I'm still injured, and I feel uncomfortable somewhere in my body. I don't have much strength to speak, so I speak very softly. If I don't lean close to your ear, what if you can't hear me? And if I keep repeating myself, it will make you feel worse?"

She delivered such a long speech without hesitation; she didn't seem injured at all.

Gu Yuqiu smiled and asked, "So you mean I have to take care of your feelings now?"

Lin Mushi subconsciously hummed in agreement, then quickly shook her head, looking innocent, and said, "No way, don't overthink it, I'm just explaining."

Gu Yuqiu looked at her quietly without saying a word.

"Okay, that's what I think, but isn't this your problem?"

Lin Mushi said with slight annoyance, "Who told you to always target me before, to nag me about being stupid, and not know how to speak properly? Besides, yesterday it was because..."

That's all for now.

It wasn't Gu Yuqiu who interrupted her, but rather she herself stopped talking.

After a moment, she coughed as if nothing was wrong, and then said, "I've already changed my clothes, why am I still staying here? It's really strange."

Gu Yuqiu shifted his gaze from her eyes and looked at her again after many days.

Perhaps because of the female secretary, Lin Mushi's clothes were rather thick, quite different from usual.

A thick scarf was wrapped around her neck, and her coat was navy blue. The heavy color made her look less youthful, but it didn't look out of place at all. Instead, it gave her a slight sense of style, perhaps because of the detective hat she wore at the end.

Of course, the most crucial factor in all of this is that Lin Mushi is good-looking.

Even in a simple white shirt, she is captivating.

"Oh, right..."

Lin Mushi hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Is my outfit alright?"

Gu Yuqiu said sincerely, "Not as good-looking as me."

Lin Mushi couldn't help but roll her eyes at her, thinking to herself, "Who told you that?"

"But it's alright."

Gu Yuqiu's expression was casual, but her tone revealed a faint satisfaction, which unfortunately vanished in an instant because she changed the subject too quickly.

"Let's go."

"Uh... okay!"

The two left the ward, facing the doctor's complicated gaze, and walked out through the long corridor. They took the private elevator and quietly exited the Special Affairs Bureau building through a separate passage.

The Special Affairs Bureau building is located in the city center, surrounded by high-rise buildings and skyscrapers. Apart from shopping malls, there is really no place suitable for leisurely strolling. The people around are all in a hurry, making it difficult to have a good mood.

In an environment like this, the most relaxing thing is undoubtedly to find a coffee shop, sit by the window, sip some bitter coffee, and find peace and quiet amidst the hustle and bustle... to put on a show.

Gu Yuqiu is not that kind of person. Although she often reads those philosophical books that are very suitable for pretending, she has no interest in them at all.

As for Lin Mushi, she genuinely dislikes drinking coffee and doesn't find reading those books enjoyable at all.

Even before she left school, she couldn't get into serious literature, hated obscure things, and was most annoyed by riddles that others couldn't understand.

She thought to herself that she was just a shallow and ignorant girl who coveted wealth and status and had no interest in literature and art.

What's wrong with that?

Anyway, Gu Yuqiu doesn't mind, and she's not afraid of being disliked anymore. Lu Xiu's attitude is so clear, and she's not really an idiot. Having lived in a single-parent family for so many years, how could she not know that her future is bright?

Who knows, I might even be the one asking for favors in the future!

Thinking about these things, Lin Mushi felt even happier. She turned to Gu Yuqiu and asked, "How about I buy you a cup of milk tea to warm you up?"

Gu Yuqiu glanced at her and asked, "Are you an idiot?"

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback, and after a while she came to her senses and said angrily, "I was thinking of you, and you still scolded me!"

Her good intentions were so obvious, yet she was still inexplicably scolded. Even if she's gotten used to being scolded and no longer feels ashamed, this is still wrong!

"Although I'm good-looking and everything I do looks good, this is still too stupid."

Gu Yuqiu scoffed, "Walking around with a cup in your hand? Just thinking about it makes me feel stupid. How did you even come up with that question?"

Lin Mushi thought about it and realized it was indeed foolish. Embarrassed and angry, she said, "I'm still thinking about you!"

Gu Yuqiu asked curiously, "Do you think you're qualified to consider me?"

Lin Mushi was slightly taken aback, and a look of confusion gradually appeared in her eyes as she thought of a question she had asked herself yesterday.

She had asked Shen Hong this question twice, and also once to Su Yan.

However, none of the three inquiries yielded an answer.

That's a very simple question.

Who is Gu Yuqiu?

She stopped and looked at the surging crowd ahead as the red light turned green, and asked softly, "So, who exactly are you?"

Gu Yuqiu remained calm and did not use any methods in response to the question, saying, "This is an answer you cannot bear."

Lin Mushi thought for a moment and said, "Someone once said this to me, but I don't remember it very clearly. Maybe it was Crimson, or maybe it was the Innocent Queen?"

Gu Yuqiu said, "Shen Muchan and Su Yan are both very nice names, I like them very much."

“Names are not important... Well, I’m not very convincing to say that now.”

After a moment of silence, Lin Mushi said, "But I know I don't want to hear those two names that annoy me from your mouth. Can you understand?"

Gu Yuqiu thought for a moment and then hummed in agreement.

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "Why do you need to think about it again? Isn't this sentence direct enough?"

Gu Yuqiu said, "If you are not satisfied, you can ask again and look forward to my answer."

Lin Mushi was speechless and asked, "Can there really be blind boxes like this?"

You can understand it this way.

Gu Yuqiu said, "And isn't this a surprise in itself?"
