Chapter 139 How About Giving You to Me as a Reward?
As soon as Lin Xing opened the door to the inner room, Gu Lingshuang, who was lying on the bed, quickly got up and rubbed her eyes sleepily.
"I haven't had a good rest in the past two days...I fell asleep without realizing it."
Sister, I haven’t asked yet?
"Well, what time is it, I should go back..."
Seeing her awkward look, Lin Xing could basically guess what was going on, and his heart suddenly felt sour.
"It's okay, sister. There's no need to rush back. The bed here is much more comfortable than yours over there. Just sleep here for a while."
"That one is much more comfortable than where I am."
Gu Lingshuang coughed subconsciously and smiled slightly embarrassed.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have fallen asleep after being so good at it."
She was still covering up her embarrassment. What was certain was that she was worried because Lin Xing had been away for the past two days, so she didn't sleep well.
If she was just worried about what would happen to Lin Xing and that all the previous efforts in the Empress' affairs would be wasted, she would not cover it up so deliberately.
Therefore, Lin Xing did not reveal the matter, but said that the bed here was more comfortable and she looked less embarrassed than before.
"Then, sister, you can continue to be your sleeping beauty, and I won't disturb you anymore."
"Later, I'll arrange for the kitchen to cook something delicious, and we'll just have breakfast here."
After saying that, Lin Xing wanted to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Gu Lingshuang.
"How can I be so sleepy? Besides, my sister is also a martial arts practitioner. She told me that the bed here is relatively soft, so I accidentally fell asleep."
While talking, Gu Lingshuang stood up and lay on her side to rest for a while without taking off her shoes.
"Oh well."
Lin Xing smiled slightly.
"How about this, sister, you can sneak over here at night and have a good sleep."
"Pooh!"
Gu Lingshuang rolled her eyes.
"You have a wonderful idea. With a little scoundrel like you here, if my sister can sleep peacefully, there will be something wrong with her."
Lin Xing felt proud. In any case, he was obviously speaking much more freely in this regard than before, but he just didn't let him go too far.
"Sister, I didn't say I wanted to sleep with you!"
"You...didn't you say you didn't want to sleep in the room opposite!"
Gu Lingshuang's pretty face turned red.
"No, even if you go to sleep in the room opposite, I won't sleep here."
Lin Xing smiled: "Sister, are you afraid that I will touch you, or are you afraid that you will get used to sleeping here?"
"Yes, I just don't trust you!"
Gu Lingshuang said angrily.
In fact, Lin Xing also understood that she didn't want anything to go wrong because of these things.
"Sister, I'm not a gentleman, but I'm not a villain either. No matter how much I covet my sister's body, I won't go too far without your permission."
Hearing this, Gu Lingshuang curled her lips and said, "Okay, let me tell you something serious!"
"Okay, okay, sister, if you have anything to say, just give me your instructions."
Lin Xing nodded, and his expression became serious.
"Ye Mingzhu has been handed over to Yourong. There is no need to say more about this matter. You should know it very well."
"Um."
Lin Xing responded.
Gu Lingshuang continued with a serious expression: "By the way, your position as Yongxiang Ling should have been arranged by Xuanyuan Hai, right?"
"Of course, why would Huang Jing have such kind intentions?"
Lin Xing nodded.
"However, sister, I'm afraid the things here are not that simple. There should be the tacit approval of the regent behind this, and he probably wants me to continue looking for the night pearl for him."
Hearing this, Gu Lingshuang was not too surprised, and it was nothing. These were all things that had already surfaced.
"This luminous pearl is so nervous about the regent. It is possible that there is a secret hidden in it."
"Well, this is an obvious thing, but I am still confused now, and Han Yue'e is sure that she doesn't know the mystery of this luminous pearl."
"However, sister, don't worry, I know this matter well and will definitely pay attention to it."
"Well, this is exactly what His Majesty meant."
Gu Lingshuang nodded.
"His Majesty also said that you should do what you can with the secret of the Luminous Pearl. When necessary, you can hand over the Luminous Pearl. You can control this yourself."
When Lin Xing got the Night Pearl, he realized that it was basically a foregone conclusion, otherwise he would not be able to pass the test at all.
However, when to hand it over depends on the situation.
Gu Lingshuang continued: "Now that you have become the Yongxiang Order, it is enough to show that the Regent has basically trusted you."
"What your Majesty means is that you can use the trick... until you completely gain the regent's trust."
Sure enough!
Lin Xing's guess was correct, and he became an undercover agent with dual identities.
"Of course, becoming the regent's absolute confidant cannot be achieved simply by finding this night-light pearl."
"You should be able to guess by now why you asked the three of you to go to Qingliang Palace that day."
"Well, not only did I guess it, but I also knew what my sister wanted to say."
Lin Xing smiled.
"The regent must have learned that Yourong must have taken a liking to me, a handsome little eunuch. Otherwise, Xuanyuan Hai's favor would not have allowed me, a little eunuch, to enter his sight so quickly."
"His purpose is very simple, which is to let me learn some information about His Majesty from Yourong."
Hearing this, Gu Lingshuang smiled happily: "You are quite insightful!"
"That's a must."
Lin Xing looked very proud.
"I am now on my guard, but I dare not be vague at all. If I lose my life one day, how can I marry my sister as my wife?"
"You, here you go again."
Gu Lingshuang rolled his eyes at him.
"Sister, haven't I said everything I should say... If my nerves are always so tense, I probably won't be able to wait until the day when I spend the wedding night with my sister. I'm afraid I will be exhausted to death because of overwork."
"Humph, you are so slick and heartless..."
As she said this, Gu Lingshuang frowned.
"No, you little bad guy, I'm afraid you are referring to something?"
"Hehe, sister is really smart!"
Lin Xing smiled.
"Since my sister has found out, you know that His Majesty doesn't care about me. Forget about the supplements, that's not a long-term solution. You have to get a book of secret methods to strengthen your body."
"It's not that I haven't considered it, but I can't give it to you. You are just a little eunuch and you don't have the qualifications. Besides, the secret book of unique body cultivation is precious and rare. You are a eunuch, practicing the most rigid and yang technique. Once you are discovered, won't you be exposed?"
"What's more, the regent wants to use you now, and he will not relax his vigilance against you. You can't act rashly at this time. The confidant butler beside him is a top-notch expert."
Makes sense!
"My sister means that I still need to move more and look weaker."
"Yeah."
Gu Lingshuang nodded subconsciously, and then looked shy.
"What the hell is going on? What nonsense are you talking about... You just entered the palace not long ago, no one will pay special attention to these things, not to mention who would have thought that you are a fake eunuch?"
"Sister, I suddenly thought of a question. You said that next time I see the emperor, I will persuade her with emotion and reason, and ask her to give you to me..."
"You dare!"
Gu Lingshuang's eyes glared.
"Okay, okay, I understand, I dare not!"
Lin Xing smiled.
"But, sister, if the emperor gives a secret decree to give you to me, can we..."
Hearing this, Gu Lingshuang immediately said angrily: "I think you are asking for a fight!"
