Acheron: "Did You Make Plans with Someone Else Today?" / Silver Wolf: "We're Getting Married Tomorrow!"

Lin Shuang slowly opened her eyes, facing the sunlight.

However, the moment she opened her eyes, she met Acheron's eyes.

Good morning, Lin Shuang.

"Morning..."

Lin Shuang raised her hand to rub her eyes and subconsciously shrank closer to Acheron, avoiding the sunlight from the window.

When did you wake up?

"For a while... I saw you holding me tightly and wouldn't let go, so I waited for you."

"Ah..."

Before Lin Shuang's mind could even process what was happening, Acheron propped himself up on his arms and sat up, his long hair cascading down Lin Shuang's face, obscuring the morning sun.

He gently pinched Lin Shuang's cheek with his fingers:

"Your face is definitely easier to pinch than mine."

"Ah?!"

Lin Shuang, on her deathbed, sat up in shock, but Acheron had already turned away and gotten out of bed.

Volume 1: Chapter 92 Acheron: Did you make plans with someone else today?

The last bit of sleepiness was scared away by Acheron.

Pillow marks were still visible on Lin Shuang's face, and her hair was a bit messy.

But she didn't care about her image, staring wide-eyed at Acheron's back.

What did she mean by what she just said?

What does it mean to say "My face is definitely easier to pinch"? What does "definitely" mean? What does "easier" mean?

However, Acheron seemed to know nothing and walked straight out of the room without any hesitation.

All that was left for Lin Shuang was a beautiful silhouette.

He wouldn't even turn around and give her a smile!

How can we tolerate this?

Lin Shuang immediately climbed out of bed and followed. Seeing Acheron barefoot in the hallway, she hurried forward. In a moment of impulsiveness, the question blurted out:

Did you hear that last night?

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Shuang regretted it, feeling as if she had just revealed her own embarrassing past.

What's even more infuriating is that Acheron simply tilted his head and asked curiously in return:

"What did you hear?"

Okay, okay, it feels so soft to kiss, but you're just being stubborn, aren't you?

Lin Shuang took a deep breath, stared straight into Acheron's eyes, and continued to ask:

"After I logged off the game! Did you even fall asleep at all?!"

As she spoke, a blush crept onto Lin Shuang's face, though she herself was unaware of it.

Looking at Lin Shuang's messy appearance, Acheron raised his hand and pinched Lin Shuang's cheek again, then used his fingers to tidy up her messy hair.

"Asleep..."

Acheron paused for a moment after saying this, and then continued:

"I don't remember when you quit the game."

I don't believe it!

Acheron's weak explanation failed to gain Lin Shuang's 'trust'. Of course, Acheron didn't care and continued to tidy Lin Shuang's White-Haired Form.

"Look, you've already reached a conclusion, yet you still have to come up and ask this question."

So you admit it!

Lin Shuang stared wide-eyed at Acheron, who was so close at hand.

In that instant, she felt that this woman, who was supposed to be somewhat dazed but kind-hearted, had suddenly transformed into a mischievous and playful woman.

"No, I don't remember. And I don't know what you're talking about."

"--!"

Lin Shuang was rendered speechless by Acheron's words.

You were definitely faking being asleep last night, weren't you?

Just after those words, Lin Shuang's hair was mostly tidied up, so Acheron let go of her hand, gave Lin Shuang a slight smile, and then turned and walked away.

Lin Shuang, who was completely captivated by that smile, was left standing there, struggling with a sense of shame.

No way, this person really has no sense of shame.

Someone with a basic sense of shame like myself simply can't beat this kind of competitor.

Lin Shuang fell into deep self-doubt. Could it be that she wasn't twisted enough, which was why Acheron had teased her?

Just then, the cell phone in the room rang.

Lin Shuang was finally able to snap out of her self-doubt and returned to her room to check her phone.

It was a message from Danshu:

[Danshu: Good morning, Young Friend Lin. I have heard about the matter at the Divination Department. I apologize; this matter originated from me, but I did not expect those children's parents to do such a thing. I have caused you distress.]

At the same time, Lin Shuang noticed the pop-up window that the system had displayed while she was asleep the night before.

[Target: Danshu]

[Affection: 70 (Seems to be expecting something from you)]

[Relationship: Friends despite age difference]

['You even managed to hook up with the villain? I underestimated you.']

[Rewards: One green card draw, one Purple Draw]

The pop-up window that appeared after I went to sleep last night didn't reappear until Lin Shuang saw the text message and remembered Danshu.

The Affection jumped to seventy in an instant.

The number of gacha pulls was refreshed twice at once.

How can it rise so much?

When did their relationship become such a close friendship despite their age difference...?

Although Lin Shuang didn't really have much ill feelings towards Danshu, and even knew a little about her background story.

Lin Shuang knew that Danshu had done many evil deeds, and did not deny that Danshu needed to be tried by law, but she did not really hate Danshu that much.

But that was only one side.

Did Danshu's Affection towards me suddenly increase dramatically just because of what happened yesterday?

Lin Shuang didn't rush to draw the card, but instead continued to look at her phone.

He replied:

[Lin Shuang: Don't worry about it. Being able to help that child makes what I did somewhat meaningful. The future will still require your efforts, Miss Danshu.]

As far as Lin Shuang knew, Danshu was the only one who suffered from a severe Heavenly Defect and held a high position of power.

I don't know if the Department of Civil Affairs exists.

But at least from Lin Shuang's understanding, if Danshu were really willing to do these things, he should be able to offer many useful suggestions and proposals.

Will Danshu do it? Lin Shuang wasn't sure. But Jing Yuan would probably ask him himself.

[Danshu: Young Friend Lin, your kindness is admirable. I wonder if you have some free time today? If so, please come to the Ruomu Pavilion. At least I can ask you to thank me on behalf of that child.]

[Lin Shuang: Miss Danshu, you're too kind. If I have time to visit Ruomu Pavilion today, I'll contact you before noon.]

[Danshu: Very well, I will Astra Yao.]

Exit the chat.

Just as Lin Shuang was about to put her phone away.

Several message notifications sounded in succession.

The messages were surprisingly from several friends.

[Qingque: Girl, the news's all over Divination Department! I'm so frustrated but I can't tell anyone, so I'm calling you. Are you free today? Come to the Divination Department and chat with me.]

[Qingque: [Paimon makes a heart shape with her hands]]

Lin Shuang couldn't help but laugh when she saw this. Shouldn't Qingque be carefree, eating well and sleeping soundly? How could she be so upset about this?

[Lin Shuang: We'll see. You're not playing cards today?]

After replying to Qingque, Lin Shuang immediately left, because before logging in, she had seen another person's name was Fu Xuan.

[Fu Xuan: Are you free today? I've prepared some sweet soup from the Alchemy Commission Department. I was thinking of how much you troubled me yesterday, and I should thank you.]

[Fu Xuan: The sweet soup prepared by the Dragon Lady is fragrant and delicious, each flavor unique. Although it's Medicinal Tea, it's not bitter at all. I recommend you try it.]

[Lin Shuang: Why are you suddenly offering me dessert? Is there some special meaning behind it?]

[Fu Xuan: Things you like should be shared. Since we're going to be friends, we can't just stay in name only. I did some research last night, and I think we should at least start by sharing our interests.]

[Fu Xuan: If you don't mind, you can also talk about what you like.]

[Lin Shuang: I understand. I'll bring some tea and snacks over later.]

After sending the message, Qingque's reply appeared in the pop-up window above.

Just click on it.

[Qingque: You don't know, the general's orders came down first thing this morning, along with a lot of Cloud Knights. The Divination Department is swamped today! How could I possibly escape? Hey, sister, since you're here today, why don't you put in a good word for me with the Lord Diviner?]

[Lin Shuang: It sounds like there's a lot of commotion. I'll go check it out when I have time.]

I had just finished replying to the message when suddenly, I felt a warm, moist breeze and heard a calm voice beside my ear:

"I have an appointment today, and it's with someone from the Divination Department)?"

"Whoa--!"

Lin Shuang was startled by the sudden attack, her whole body leaning forward. She quickly covered her itchy ears and turned to look at Acheron:

"What's wrong? Is there anything you want to do today?"

Acheron didn't speak, but just stared straight into Lin Shuang's eyes.

Volume 1: Chapter 93 Silver Wolf: We're getting married tomorrow!

Lin Shuang felt uneasy under Acheron's gaze.

Although Acheron didn't actually show much emotion, Lin Shuang subjectively felt that Acheron probably had ill intentions.

"Say something... Why are you staring at me without saying a word? And why did you come back so soon?"

"I walked halfway and then realized you were gone, so I turned back to check. Looks like you're doing quite well on the Xianzhou."

Lin Shuang couldn't help but laugh as she listened to the speech, which lacked much emotional fluctuation.

She put away her phone, raised her hand and pushed Acheron's shoulder as they walked out of the bedroom together. At the same time, she said behind Acheron:

"Ultimately, it's all thanks to you. Without you as my backer, the Xianzhou wouldn't value me so much."

"More than that."

Acheron was pushed forward, and he turned his head to glance at Lin Shuang behind him.

If it were only because of her, Xianzhou might be polite, but certainly wouldn't take it so seriously.

To put it Emanator, there are seven such beings on the Xianzhou, just those who are publicly known, with one general on Xianzhou.

While the Vidyadhara Dragon Lord may fall short in some aspects, he is by no means a force to be underestimated.
