What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

Looking at her indifferent expression, Lin Mushi asked incredulously, "Aren't you happy for me?"

Gu Yuqiu thought to herself, what's there to be happy about?

The white cat lay to the side, giving Lin Mushi a cold glance, thinking that if she was still standing still, that would be something that would surprise her.

Last night, it was on the sofa and clearly saw someone walk out of their room, cross the hallway, and come to another room.

Although it dared not even glance at what someone did after entering the room, how could Lin Mushi's changes escape its eyes?

The great and wise Lord Songtang sighed with a hint of regret, reflecting on his own magnanimity in being able to calmly tolerate his servant being taken away.

Of course, even if it has a problem with this, Gu Yuqiu certainly won't care.

Logically speaking, Songtang did not ask Lin Mushi for her opinion, but she did ask her personally... even if the method was not very aboveboard.

If Lin Mushi learns the truth later, she will surely care.

Of course, it wouldn't matter even if she cared.

……

……

"Yes, I'm very happy."

Gu Yuqiu put down the book in her hand and casually said, "So, what's my question?"

Lin Mushi stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside.

In the depths of winter, the sun is swallowed by dense clouds, and everything seems shrouded in a very thin layer of gray mist, making the whole world appear listless.

On days like these, the best thing to do is stay home and not go anywhere.

Looking at the scene before her, she suddenly remembered the vanished, pitch-black sun and said earnestly, "I want to eat hot pot."

"Do not want to."

Gu Yuqiu closed her eyes to rest.

Lin Mushi stared into her eyes and said, "I want to eat."

Gu Yuqiu said, "I don't want to."

Lin Mushi's tone became more serious as she said, "I said if you want to eat, then you should eat..."

Halfway through her sentence, she suddenly came to her senses, pursed her lower lip tightly, and thought to herself, "Why did I say such childish things?" She immediately pretended to be aloof and remained silent.

Gu Yuqiu opened her eyes and asked, "What's the reason?"

Lin Mushi thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "What do you think of using someone else's kindness to repay a debt of gratitude?"

This statement may seem like a joke, but it actually carries a deeper meaning.

The depth of her intention lies in the fact that she wants to use this to make it seem as if that kiss at dawn never happened, as if it were all an illusion.

Gu Yuqiu was silent for a moment, then said, "Okay."

After saying that, she got up and walked towards her room, leaving behind a single sentence without looking back.

"I'm going to rest first. Wake me up when I go out."

Looking at her figure, Lin Mushi finally noticed that she looked unusually tired, and couldn't help but feel a little worried. She decided not to wake her up.

……

……

On the same morning.

Zhong Chongshan had just finished his work and was preparing to take a break when there was a knock on the door.

By this time, Liu Nan had already left work and was replaced by that female secretary.

"what's up?"

"Miss Su, the messenger of natural disasters, has come to visit with important news."

Zhong Chongshan rubbed his temples and sighed, "I understand. Let her in."

The reason he sighed was not because he was extremely exhausted, although he was indeed very tired, but more importantly, because he knew a little about this Su Yan.

From what little they knew, Su Yan displayed a temperament almost identical to Gu Yuqiu's—aloof, indifferent, pretentious, and ruthless.

Of course, "ruthless" here does not refer to cold-heartedness, but simply to the literal meaning.

She seems to be able to abandon all emotions and, from a purely self-interested perspective, make the best choice under the existing conditions when faced with various difficulties.

Zhong Chongshan has never liked dealing with this kind of person, because such people are often quite terrifying, but his job doesn't allow him to refuse.

Not long after, Su Yan arrived at the office.

Without sitting down, she went straight to the point: "I've received news that there's been some unusual activity at the Church of the Sleeping Souls. It's that the Pope has left his own church."

Zhong Chongshan was stunned.

This sentence seems ordinary and unremarkable, and sounds similar to an old person taking a walk, but in fact it represents a lot.

Because that church exists in the dream, and the Pope has never left it since he reached the peak of the fifth level.

Many people believe that the church is the prototype of the Kingdom of God, because in the past two powerful figures of equal rank to the Pope visited it due to grudges and interests, but ultimately left disappointed and empty-handed.

"Why are you telling me this news?"

No matter how high Zhong Chongshan's opinion of himself was, he didn't think he was qualified to get involved in such an important matter.

Su Yan calmly said, "Because I deduced that he was coming to Xin Chu, and you are currently in charge of Xin Chu, it is only natural for me to tell you."

Zhong Chongshan forced himself to remain calm and said, "I will relay the message truthfully."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered Gu Yuqiu's warning to him not long ago that the Youmian Church would stop at nothing, and he was stunned once again.

He took a deep breath and then said, "If this news is true, then someone will soon take over my job, but I still have one more problem."

Su Yan hummed in agreement.

Zhong Chongshan felt that the "hmm" sounded somewhat familiar, but without thinking much about it, he said, "A few hours ago, someone said the same thing to me as you are now, warning me to be wary of the Church of the Sleeping Demons."

Su Yan asked, "Who?"

Her tone seemed unchanged, but she was actually quite curious, wondering who had been on guard in advance.

—This kind of talent, who can sense danger in advance, is exactly the kind of talent that natural disaster messengers have always needed.

"Gu Yuqiu."

Zhong Chongshan spoke softly, his gaze falling on her face, but regretfully he could not detect any change in her emotions.

He paused for a few seconds, then continued, "Four members of the Church of the Sleeping Dead died in the early hours of the morning, so I sent her and another person to the scene, and she eventually came to this conclusion."

Hearing this, Su Yan laughed, thinking to herself that although you are very much like your teacher, you are definitely not your teacher.

Several years ago, there were many reasons why she and that person parted ways.

The similarity in personality, which leads to constant arguments when they meet, is secondary.

There is only one most important point of contention.

Gu Yuqiu's teacher was too indifferent to the world, even to the point of being heartless.

That's why she decided never to see them again.

But... she never imagined that she would never see him again.

Su Yan thought about these past events, her memory was very clear, and she was filled with emotion.

She remained calm and said, "I met Gu Yuqiu last night. I have some impression of him. He is indeed quite interesting."

Zhong Chongshan finally asked, "What kind of person do you think she is?"

He will remember this answer carefully and leave it as important information for those who come after him.

"I don't know."

Su Yan turned and left, leaving only one sentence: "I'll go have a meal with her and see."

……

……

At noon, Gu Yuqiu was woken up by a phone call.

Then she walked out of the room and said something to Lin Mushi that struck her like a thunderbolt.

"Su Yan came to eat the meal you treated her to."

Chapter 33: Remembering Each Other After a Hundred Years

Lin Mushi forced herself to calm down, looked into her eyes, and asked with slight annoyance, "You agreed on my behalf?"

Gu Yuqiu hummed in agreement.

She glanced at Lin Mushi and said with a smile, "It's not good to go back on your word. Could it be that you actually don't like her and that the invitation that day was just a formality?"

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "You already know, why did you still have to say it?"

For a very complicated reason, she really didn't like Su Yan and didn't even want to see her again, but she naturally couldn't admit to such an accusation.

"I'm doing this for your own good."

"Ok?"

"You and Su Yan have such similar tempers, and you both like to say outrageous things that are hard to understand. What if you two get angry while chatting?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuqiu's lips curled up slightly, and a smile appeared in her eyes.

Lin Mushi looked at her and continued, "I just didn't want you two to have a conflict, so I thought of inviting Su Yan to dinner alone. Do you understand now?"

Gu Yuqiu asked, "You seem to know me very well?"

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "I've been living with you for more than ten days, spending every day together. We're practically sharing a bed. How could I not know you well?"

Sometimes, she even wanted to ask Gu Yuqiu how she usually got along with her parents.

Is it the same as when you're with me?

"Intuition, and judgment accumulated over time."
