What evil intentions could an evil god possibly have?

At this moment, the slight blush on her cheeks gradually faded, and her skin became fair and tender again. Although the emotion in her eyes was still indifferent, she still looked like an underage girl.

Therefore, this silence can easily be interpreted as rebellion or stubbornness.

In short, it's all unsatisfactory.

Gu Yuqiu leaned down slightly, lifted the girl's chin with his fingertips, looked into her eyes and said, "Don't try to test my intentions anymore, or you'll have an even deeper memory next time."

Crimson remained silent.

Gu Yuqiu found her behavior somewhat amusing and said gently, "Do you want to die?"

Crimson paused, then suddenly felt a slight warmth on her neck.

She finally came to her senses and realized that the sensation came from her blood.

The blood flowing through her body.

"I don't like killing."

Gu Yuqiu casually pulled out a tissue from the side, wiped the blood from her hands, and said calmly, "This is the last warning. Remember not to play dead and stay silent next time."

After saying this, she threw the blood-stained tissue into the trash can and walked towards the window.

The white cat is right there.

Crimson watched her retreating figure and suddenly asked, "So what exactly do you want me to do, besides those three things?"

"Isn't that better? If there's anything you don't understand or are curious about, just ask me openly. What's the point of always trying to scheme against me, other than asking for a beating?"

Gu Yuqiu didn't turn around. Standing in the sunlight, he yawned and stretched, saying, "As for what you need to do now, it's very simple. Let Black Stone and the like cause some trouble. Don't let things stay so quiet."

Deep Red opened her mouth slightly, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately didn't dare to ask why. She lowered her head and obediently hummed in agreement.

Gu Yuqiu asked, "Is there any trouble?"

Shen Hong glanced out the window and said, "I mentioned to you before that someone is monitoring this place. If it's someone sent by Lu Xiu, things won't be convenient."

Gu Yuqiu said calmly, "Then you should first find out who sent the person who was monitoring me."

Crimson forced herself to control her emotions and said expressionlessly, "You know very well how badly I'm injured right now. If I force myself to do anything, I'm likely to make mistakes, unless you let this idiot cat follow me."

Upon hearing this, Songtang turned to look at her, giving her a disdainful glance.

Gu Yuqiu shook her head slightly and said, "Don't think about it."

Don't be fooled by the fact that she leaves the cat at home and doesn't seem to take it out at all; in fact, she has always regarded Songtang as an important safeguard for her life.

How could someone as valuing of life as her possibly let the white cat truly leave?

Crimson withdrew her gaze, wondering if pine syrup was your last resort for survival.

If she finds an opportunity to force Gu Yuqiu to make the white cat do something, thus leading to their separation... wouldn't that be the best opportunity?

"What are you thinking?"

Gu Yuqiu suddenly turned around and looked at her.

Crimson met her gaze, her expression unchanged, and said in a slightly cold voice, "I'm thinking about how to accomplish what you asked for."

Gu Yuqiu smiled and said, "Then I think you shouldn't need to think about it for long."

Crimson was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes."

She couldn't hide this, because she was indeed very good at these things and had done too many similar things in the past.

Otherwise, the Special Affairs Bureau and other extraordinary agencies around the world would not have regarded her as a destabilizing factor and maintained constant surveillance over her.

"I'll finish it as soon as possible."

She glanced at Gu Yuqiu one last time, then turned and walked towards the balcony, saying, "If they're from the Special Affairs Bureau, do I need to leave them alive?"

Gu Yuqiu chuckled and said, "I'm an advisor to the Special Affairs Bureau now."

The last syllable of "Deep Red Heart" in your voice is truly disgusting.

……

……

On the small table by the window, the white cat looked up at Gu Yuqiu and meowed.

It had never really paid much attention to Crimson, so this meow was directed at Su Yan, asking, "How do you plan to face that innocent empress?"

Gu Yuqiu sighed and asked in return, "Guess why I drove Lin Mushi away?"

The white cat then realized what was going on and thought, "So you were lying to me again last night?"

At that time, she thought Gu Yuqiu was genuinely worried about Lin Mushi and didn't want her only believer to be dragged into the vortex too early...

So all of these are fake?

You're actually hurting... and caring about Su Yan's thoughts?

Out of habit, even though it didn't meow these thoughts out loud, it was still very careful to promptly revise any inappropriate words in its thoughts, not daring to offend in any way.

"Women are often the source of trouble, and Su Yan has proven that she is no exception."

Gu Yuqiu said softly, "I don't want to have all my previous efforts wasted and have to recalculate everything because of some inexplicable thing."

The white cat meowed in confusion, as if to say, "Why did you provoke Lin Mushi in the first place?"

Gu Yuqiu said, "That's why I'm really annoyed by Crimson right now."

The white cat looked at her helplessly and meowed a long, earnest message at her.

“Crimson has already told you that someone is watching you. You should call her by her name, that... Shen Muchan. Even though it's not summer, a cicada is still a cicada. Stop talking about Crimson all the time. What if someone overhears and something happens? We have to be careful about everything now.”

Gu Yuqiu wasn't used to it, so she nodded and said okay.

The white cat was no longer so nervous: "You're not as strong as before, so you might not be able to tell some things. I was actually injured last night too, just not as badly as Crimson, but it really won't be as easy for me to use my claws in the future."

Gu Yuqiu hummed in agreement, rubbed its head, and said gently, "I know."

The white cat finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then it asked, "So what do we do now?"

Gu Yuqiu thought for a moment and said, "You said you were bored at home before, so I'll take you out for a walk today. Anyway, we'll have to use the cat carrier eventually."

……

……

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was still shining brightly.

The New Chu Special Affairs Bureau building is located in the city center, surrounded by a bustling commercial district, offering many suitable places for conversation.

Lu Xiu was not old, not yet thirty, which is why he was considered to have a bright future.

Young people like him rarely act as seriously as Zhong Chongshan, and besides, he didn't want the conversation to become too formal.

Therefore, his conversation with Lin Mushi took place in a coffee shop next to the Special Affairs Bureau building.

Lin Mushi doesn't like coffee. She had passed by this shop many times before, but only went in today.

She stood in front of the door, glanced around, and couldn't help but frown, feeling utterly bewildered, wondering if they really had to talk here.

Thinking about this, her impression of Lu Xiu worsened.

Just as she was thinking this, a young and beautiful woman in formal attire walked over, nodded to her, and said in a low voice, "This way."

Lin Mushi followed the woman's gaze and saw a young man sitting by the window on the second floor of the shop, reading a book in his hand, with a cup of coffee in front of him.

For some reason, she felt a sense of familiarity with this scene.

"Ok."

Lin Mushi remained expressionless, walked to the table on the second floor, sat down, looked at Lu Xiu who was still reading, and said seriously, "I don't think this is a suitable place to talk."

Lu Xiu closed the book, gave her a gentle smile, and said, "I don't think anyone here can overhear what I'm saying."

The statement carried an overly confident tone, which Lin Mushi found rather unsettling.

To be precise, she wasn't used to this kind of confidence coming from anyone other than that person.

"So is there anything you don't understand?"

Lin Mushi looked at him and said.

Lu Xiu smiled and said, "No need to rush. I've deliberately set aside a lot of time to get to the bottom of this... So why don't you order a coffee first?"

Lin Mushi doesn't like coffee, but how could she refuse in this situation? So she ordered a cup.

Lu Xiu was pleased that she hadn't refused, then his smile faded as he asked, "What I want to know is... what is your relationship with Gu Yuqiu?"

Lin Mushi frowned slightly, but did not answer immediately.

Lu Xiu, oblivious to her presence, stared into her eyes and continued to ask, "Are we friends, or is it a deeper relationship?"

Chapter 88: Chapter Eighty-Seven - I Want to See You

"I... don't quite understand what you mean."

Lin Mushi's expression darkened slightly as he met Lu Xiu's gaze, his voice becoming as cold as the wind outside the window.

Lu Xiu did not answer, but said, "Is there anything inconvenient about this question?"

Answering one question with another is a common practice, and even Lin Mushi is well aware of it, but she still has no choice but to do so.

She is not like Gu Yuqiu. Although she has become much more confident now, she still cannot and will not be arrogant and disregard others.

Of course, the most crucial reason is that Lu Xiu is now her boss.

Lin Mushi was silent for a moment before saying, "Gu Yuqiu and I are colleagues."

Lu Xiu raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Of course I know you and she are colleagues, but I remember you also lived together with her for quite a long time. According to what Director Zhong said to me in casual conversation, you two have a very good relationship. You must be more than just colleagues, right?"

Lin Mushi thought to herself, "Isn't this 'casual chat' too hypocritical?"

She was suddenly disappointed, never expecting that her former idol would be such a person in real life.

Can't you just say what you mean?

The next moment, she realized that they weren't chatting casually, but discussing a very serious matter, and she understood in a bad mood.

If it were her, she would likely have chosen the same approach to ascertain the truth behind the matter.
