The Lost City of Alien Beasts

Chapter 547 The Little Princess Taking a Bath

Hui Xiong chatted with Dr. Jia all the way, and Gao Yang listened to a few words. Except that the names were right, the story was basically completely different. But thanks to him, Dr. Jia and the ghost group no longer had any conflicts along the way.

It was already two o'clock in the morning when everyone left the Triangle Tower Scenic Area.

After all, "people and ghosts follow different paths", Chun, Gao Yang and others reached a confidential verbal agreement and parted ways.

Before leaving, Douhu refused to give up and wanted to get some information about the Cangmu Cult from Chun.

Chun Ru truthfully told him that the ghost group's previous contact person was Edmund. Now that Edmund is dead, they have also lost contact with the Cangmu Sect.If the Cangmu Sect contacts the Ghost Group again in the future, and the three major organizations can offer more attractive conditions, it is not impossible for Chun to consider cooperation.

Before leaving, Bai Lu called Gao Yang aside alone and reluctantly took out a postcard with a scene of the desert and the Triangular Tower: "Chu Xue stayed up late to write you a letter."

Gao Yang was a little moved and a little sad: for such a short letter, he had to stay up late to finish it.

Gao Yang could almost imagine Chu Xue lying on the table, biting the end of the pen, racking his brains to form words and sentences, similar to when he was writing essays when he was a child.

Gao Yang lowered his head and read the letter:

——The sun is so bright and hot. I sweat a lot and am always thirsty. I don’t like the desert (⊙﹏⊙)
——My sister said that we are vampires, so we don’t like the sun.

——I don’t like the sun, but I like Gaoyang, Xixi! (*^▽^*)
——Gao Yang, I miss you so much, do you miss me?

After Gao Yang read the letter and was about to speak, Bai Lu had already handed over the pen consciously.

Gao Yang held the postcard with his left hand and replied on the spot:
——I don’t like the desert either, but I’m very happy to meet you.

——Chu Xue, you saved me again, that’s awesome!
——The trip is over, you go home and have a good rest.

——When I have time, I will come to play with you and treat you to delicious food.

Gao Yang reached out and rubbed Chu Xue's little head in Bai Lu's arms, folded the postcard and placed it next to her.

The white cat woke up slightly. She subconsciously stretched out her pink paws, hugged the postcard, and fell asleep sweetly again.

So cute.

Gao Yang couldn't help but laugh, and his originally heavy mood improved slightly.

When he raised his head, he was met with Bai Lu's death gaze.

Gao Yang felt a chill go down his spine and immediately retracted his hand.

"Goodbye." Bai Lu turned around with a bad expression.

……

Gao Yang and others returned to the hotel, avoided Dr. Jia and held a short meeting to come up with a unified version that could be reported to the three major organizations based on tonight's experience.

Afterwards, Gao Yang personally called Qilin and gave a detailed report.

After hearing this, Qilin just said that he understood and asked Gao Yang to pay attention to safety.

Both of them were tacitly understanding each other and did not mention the incident in the previous island country, as if it did not exist at all.

The group planned to sleep in the hotel for a few hours and fly back to Licheng at noon.

Just in case, the seven people were divided into three double rooms according to their equal combat power, and they had to take care of each other.

Douhu shares a room with Dr. Jia, Jiuhan, Manshe and Huixiong share a room, and Gao Yang and Qingling share a room.

At 03:30 in the morning, Gao Yang and Qing Ling finished washing and lay down on the same bed.

Gao Yang closed his eyes and rested his mind. After 10 minutes, he still didn't hear Qing Ling's even breathing, knowing that she was not asleep yet.

After a while, the sound of rubbing came from the darkness nearby.

Gao Yang opened his eyes and saw Qing Ling, who was wearing a silk nightgown, turning her body sideways, pillowing her face with one hand and placing the other hand naturally on her thigh, staring at him faintly.

"Qing Ling?" Gao Yang confirmed.

Qing Ling didn't answer, which was regarded as acquiescence.

After a moment of silence, Qing Ling said softly: "You have something on your mind."

Gao Yang was stunned at first. Sure enough, he couldn't deceive her, just like Qing Ling couldn't deceive him when something happened.

"Yes." Gao Yang admitted.

Qing Ling asked directly: "Ever since you saw the mural on the obelisk, something is wrong. What is going on?"

After she got everything right, Gao Yang sighed: "Qing Ling, it's not that I don't want to tell you, it's just that I can't tell you."

"What do you mean?" Qing Ling asked.

Gao Yang thought for a while and made an inappropriate analogy: "It's like I found a question, but I only found half of the question and couldn't solve it at all. So, I wanted to at least figure out the complete question first, and then follow up. Tell me, you can help me find a way."

Qing Ling thought for two seconds and said seriously: "Then tell me which half of the question first."

"no……"

"I want to help you." Qing Ling interrupted.

Gao Yang was stunned, moved and surprised. Qing Ling was not a nosy person. This was the first time he took such initiative.

"Let's do this." Gao Yang no longer insisted, "When you return to Licheng tomorrow, you accompany me to do something, and I will tell you. Go to sleep, and I will think about it myself."

"Row."

Now that Gao Yang had relented, Qing Ling stopped entangled and turned over.

After a few minutes, Qing Ling's breathing became even and she fell asleep.

Gao Yang lay in the darkness and thought alone for a long time, feeling sad in his heart.

He gently turned sideways, looked at Qing Ling who was sleeping soundly in the darkness, and slowly closed his eyes.

……

The trip back to China went smoothly. Dr. Jia followed Douhu back to Licheng and decided to stay for a while.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, Gao Yang and his party walked out of Licheng Airport.Before leaving the airport, Gao Yang chatted with Dr. Jia alone for a few minutes, and the two of them were mysterious.

When he came back, Dr. Jia shook his head: "This Qiying is such a thief, he even took off my underwear."

Gao Yang smiled: "Dr. Jia, thank you, I owe you a favor."

Before getting in the car, Gao Yang thought of something else and called Dou Hu: "Uncle Hu, lend me a fire."

Uncle Hu was stunned for a moment, then understood immediately. He stretched out his hand and Gao Yang took it, copying Dou Hu's [Murder Expert].

Douhu came over and said with a wicked smile: "The price of your friendship is three gold and black coins."

"I'll give it to you later." Gao Yang smiled bitterly: What's wrong with learning? Just learn from your apprentice Qing Ling, who is a money-challenged man!
Qing Ling and Gao Yang got into the same taxi and returned to Licheng University together.

It was already early in the morning when we got off the bus. Gao Yang took Qing Ling to eat at a spicy hotpot cart opposite the school gate.

After Gao Yang ate for a while, he suddenly blurted out: "I remember that Chen Ying loved bathing. As long as she didn't work overtime, she would take a bath every night before going to bed."

Qing Ling was eating fish balls with her head down. She frowned slightly and didn't understand why Gao Yang said this.

"I guess she must still be taking a bath at this point." Gao Yang said.

"What do you want to say?" Qing Ling felt confused.

"Let's verify it." Gao Yang picked up the phone and dialed Chen Ying's number.

Qing Ling put down her chopsticks and looked at Gao Yang as if she was crazy: "Are you serious?"

"Of course." Gao Yang smiled.

Soon, the call was connected. Gao Yang picked up a piece of freshly cooked green vegetables and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Is something wrong?" Chen Ying asked.

"Are you taking a bath?" Gao Yang pretended to be anxious.

"...Yes." Chen Ying's voice was a little awkward.

"Come to the gate of Licheng University immediately!"

"what?"

"Hurry up! Life is at stake!" Gao Yang quickly hung up the phone and turned off the phone.

Qing Ling's face darkened: "Are you crazy?"

Gao Yang did not explain, and waved, "Boss, three more bowls of beef offal noodles."

"okay!"

About 10 minutes later, a car drove out of the intersection not far away. It drifted towards the city gate and stopped.

Chen Ying got out of the car in a hurry. Sure enough, she had wet hair, was wrapped in a bathrobe, and was wearing a pair of slippers. She looked panicked. People who didn't know about it would already have wild thoughts when they saw this scene.

"Chen Ying, this way."

At the Malatang stall across the road, Gao Yang and Qing Ling were sitting together. Gao Yang turned sideways and waved to Chen Ying.

Chen Ying was stunned, then quickly crossed the road and came to Gao Yang. She glanced at the Malatang boss warily and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"You really love bathing. You are like a little bathing princess." Gao Yang pretended to smile frivolously and patted the bench next to him: "Sit down."

Chen Ying's face didn't look good, so she patiently sat down next to Gao Yang.

Gao Yang pointed to a bowl of beef offal noodles on the table: "I specially ordered it for you. If you don't get it soon, it will get cold."

"Is this a life-threatening emergency?" Chen Ying frowned.

"Yes." Gao Yang still had a joking look on his face: "You will know how amazing it is after you taste it. If you taste such good food in the morning, you will die by night."

"Crazy!" Chen Ying was really angry and stood up to leave: She hated frivolous people the most in her life, and her previous good impression of Qiying was gone.

"Chen Ying." Gao Yang stopped acting and called to her, "No more joking, let's get down to business. Sit down."

Chen Ying glanced at Gao Yang suspiciously, calmed down, and sat down again.

"What's going on?" Chen Ying asked.

"Can I trust you?" Gao Yang asked.

Chen Ying was startled and looked up at the Malatang boss again. Since Gao Yang had asked this, he must have confirmed that he was a lost beast.

Chen Ying, who has been in the workplace for many years, immediately heard the implication of Gao Yang's words. She got straight to the point: "Elder Qiying, do you want to poach me?"

Gao Yang was also very frank, "Do you want to think about it?"

"Are you representing the Qilin Trade Union?" Chen Ying paused for a moment before speaking softer: "Or are you representing the Chinese zodiac?"

"What if I say that I represent myself?" Gao Yang asked.

Chen Ying didn't speak. She looked down at the steaming beef offal powder in front of her and fell silent.

"Chen Ying, what are you pursuing?" Gao Yang asked.

"Live." Chen Ying did not hesitate, thought for a while, and added: "If possible, I hope to live with dignity, security, and freedom."

"I have almost what you want." Gao Yang said.

"Me too." Qing Ling, a serious fan, added.

"Do you think the three major organizations will work closely together to realize our wishes?" Gao Yang asked.

This question touched Chen Ying's heart.

Chen Ying and Gao Yang had been through life and death during this time, and they both admired Gao Yang's personality and character. She no longer hesitated and sighed: "To be honest, I don't feel optimistic."

"With all due respect." Gao Yang looked at Chen Ying: "Mrs. Li, I can't fulfill your wish."
