The fragrance of medicine filled the air.
Lin picked up the bowl and gulped down the medicine in one go.
"That must have cost quite a bit," she said, setting down the bowl.
"It's nothing. Don't worry about the money," Gu Qingshan said nonchalantly.
Lin looked at him, remembering the glowing orb the devil had given her.
It had once shown Gu Qingshan with a woman on each arm.
Could this guy really be that unfaithful?
Most things the devil gave her had something wrong with them, but...
"You came back so late. Looks like you went somewhere else to have fun besides the pharmacy?"
Lin lowered her gaze to the bowl and asked in a casual tone.
Gu Qingshan was about to brush her off with a few words, but for some inexplicable reason, he sensed some kind of danger.
He paused briefly, then placed a badge on the table.
It was a somewhat crude metal badge.
"Beginner Assassin? How boring."
Lin said dismissively, though her tone had lightened a little.
Her eyes shifted, and she slowly figured out what Gu Qingshan had gone to do.
"Not bad. You're starting to look like a man."
Lin patted Gu Qingshan on the shoulder and turned to leave.
"When will you recover?" Gu Qingshan asked from behind her.
"Why?"
"About that—fairy bounty notice. I think we should wait until you've recovered before we try opening it."
"You're right. Who knows what they put inside? Hmm, let's wait a little longer. I need to find some better medicine to speed up my recovery."
With that, Lin left.
Gu Qingshan was left alone on the balcony.
He carefully sensed his surroundings.
Well... some indescribable disaster seemed to have passed.
How strange.
Never mind. Since everything was fine now, why dwell on it?
