Chapter 39: Chapter 39: You Come Along Too

Lu Jingyu always found excuses for her, easing her embarrassment.

Xu Qingsui’s admiration for Lu Jingyu’s character grew even more.

But as she mulled over his words, her eyes shot wide open.

”What did you say? I haven’t eaten in two days? Are you saying it took me two days to absorb the elixir?”

Lu Jingyu nodded.

Xu Qingsui suddenly thought of something else and exclaimed, ”Don’t tell me you were here protecting me for two whole days?”

She vaguely remembered feeling a sense of panic shortly after she started devouring the spirit body.

But the panic quickly subsided, and she continued devouring the spirit body.

If she assumed Lu Jingyu had appeared then to protect her, that meant he had been standing guard here ever since.

In other words, she had been devouring for two days, and Lu Jingyu had been guarding her here for two days.

She looked at Lu Jingyu with a complicated expression, at a loss for words.

”Let’s go eat together! I’m hungry too!”

Lu Jingyu broke the awkward silence for her. Xu Qingsui nodded, but on the way to the dining hall, her mind was completely occupied with the thought that Lu Jingyu had guarded her for two days.

Just after the two of them left, Xu Ruming emerged from the shadows.

She had also spent the better part of the last two days hiding here.

As a guide, she could also sense the fluctuations of spiritual power released by the elixir.

She had only been curious at first, but then she discovered that the powerful spiritual power was emanating from Xu Qingsui’s room.

For a fleeting moment, she wanted to rush in and snatch it from Xu Qingsui.

She quickly noticed, however, that it wasn’t just her; many others, far more powerful than she, had also been drawn over.

She knew her own limits and didn’t dare to act rashly.

She had planned to observe the situation first, but she didn’t expect Lu Jingyu to show up and stand guard for Xu Qingsui.

Watching Lu Jingyu declare he would protect Xu Qingsui, flames practically shot from her eyes.

But no matter how much hatred she felt, for now, she could only swallow it.

Unable to let it go, she came by from time to time to check on the situation.

Because she didn’t dare release any malicious intent or aura, or perhaps because Lu Jingyu’s attention was focused elsewhere, she remained undiscovered.

Her hatred for Xu Qingsui grew. She had a strong feeling that Xu Qingsui had stolen her life.

Although their identities had now been switched back, she always felt that Xu Qingsui had stolen her fortune.

’If Xu Qingsui didn’t exist,’ she thought, ’this great opportunity and Lu Jingyu’s protection should have been mine.’

Xu Ruming clawed fiercely at the wooden doorframe beside her, which was already covered in numerous scratch marks.

After venting her frustration, Xu Ruming recalled the conversation between Lu Jingyu and that woman.

When that woman had appeared, she had sensed there was something extraordinary about her.

And from their conversation, she could tell the relationship between the woman and Lu Jingyu wasn’t simple.

Most importantly, her woman’s intuition told her that woman had designs on Lu Jingyu.

Xu Ruming narrowed her eyes. She didn’t dare fight that woman, and with Lu Jingyu around, she couldn’t fight Xu Qingsui either.

’But I can make Xu Qingsui and that woman fight each other,’ she schemed. ’When the snipe and the clam grapple, the fisherman profits.’

’Then I can get Lu Jingyu without lifting a finger.’

Having made up her mind, Xu Ruming slipped away to begin plotting her grand scheme.

Even after she and Lu Jingyu had eaten, Xu Qingsui still hadn’t fully processed the events of the past two days.

Although Lu Jingyu always had a reason to console her, she knew this was a debt that couldn’t be repaid with just a few words.

She didn’t know how to express her gratitude.

The two were walking through the base, one after the other, when Meng Donghua suddenly ran over.

”Captain, there’s a contaminant leak at the West District chemical plant!”

Lu Jingyu’s eyes widened. ”Let’s go, now!”

”I’ll go too!” Xu Qingsui stepped forward without a second thought.

Lu Jingyu instinctively wanted to refuse, but thinking of what happened last time, he nodded.

By the time the two of them hurried to the West District chemical plant, many other members were already waiting there.

While putting on a protective suit, Lu Jingyu selected a few people from the crowd to enter the instance with him.

Xu Qingsui was among them.

Seeing Lu Jingyu arrive, Shen Ling’an, who had been there for a while, looked on with disdain.

He thought that if he had taken a few people into the instance from the start, they would have been coming out by now.

However, Lu Jingyu’s status outweighed his, so he could only wait for him to arrive.

He waited for Lu Jingyu to call his name, but he didn’t hear it.

Not only that, but he even heard Xu Qingsui’s name called.

Shen Ling’an grew increasingly displeased, even suspecting that Lu Jingyu was deliberately denying him a chance to earn merit.

’He’s afraid I’ll perform too well and eventually replace him.’

He also arrogantly assumed that if even Xu Qingsui could enter the instance, its difficulty must be very low.

’This is just how people with status create opportunities to burnish their own records.’

’They can’t get all the benefits.’

Shen Ling’an immediately stepped forward. ”Captain Lu, I request to enter the instance!”

Seeing Lu Jingyu narrow his eyes and about to speak, Shen Ling’an cut him off again.

”Captain Lu, I admit I was careless and underestimated the enemy the last two times, but that was part of my growth process. I guarantee I won’t cause any problems this time.”

Lu Jingyu had publicly called him out last time, and Shen Ling’an wasn’t about to give him a second chance to mock him.

Lu Jingyu looked at Shen Ling’an, his brow furrowed slightly, though his thoughts were unreadable.

Just as Shen Ling’an was about to say something more to press his case...

Lu Jingyu nodded. ”Alright. Go get a protective suit. Donghua, you can stand down this time.”

’Following the captain into an instance, while highly dangerous, also offered great rewards!’

Meng Donghua was a little dejected but couldn’t defy Lu Jingyu’s orders.

Annoyed, and thinking of Shen Ling’an as the cause, Meng Donghua could only shoot him a vicious glare to vent his frustration.

Shen Ling’an glared back. Just as he was about to go get his protective suit, Lu Jingyu stopped him again.

”Wait a minute. I recall you and Xu Ruming are inseparable, aren’t you? If you’re entering the instance, she should probably go with you.”

Xu Ruming was dumbfounded. ’I didn’t say anything! How did I get dragged into this?’

She was just a guide. Although entering an instance came with mission rewards, she valued her life more.

’Life-and-death struggles are for Shen Ling’an to handle. Once he gets the reward, all I have to do is crook my finger, and it’ll be delivered right to me.’

She looked at Lu Jingyu, saw him watching her intently, and quickly shook her head.

Shen Ling’an also frowned, preparing to refuse.

”Last time we entered an instance, it was thanks to Xu Qingsui that we weren’t trapped and killed inside.”

”If we have one more guide this time, things might be even easier.”

”This is also a good opportunity for both of you to prove your abilities.”
