Chapter 1177 – Want to Level Up Again
“Well, the grave-robbing incident from last time is closed, and I’ve reported it to my superior. He wants you and me to pretend to be a couple, two great thieves, entering into a tomb with codename Red Tower’s group.” Yutian said. “We’ll collect evidence against this grave robbing group and take them all in, as well as record the methods with which these people rob the tombs. This tomb is particularly dangerous, and information would be very useful for our archaeology teams!”
“You telling me this means you want the local police to help you guys that are on the outside?”
“Yes. On the other hand, I’m also here to invite you to take the role of the thief wife… ” Yutian cleared his throat- he wasn’t planning on taking advantage of her or anything since he’d already let this go. Naturally, someone like him wouldn’t resort to lowly tactics like this, getting intimate ‘for the sake of the mission.’
Yutian doing this was for one consideration- Lingshan’s strength! It was dangerous in the tomb, and you needed the reflexes. Lingshan’s reflexes were undoubtedly significant.
According to the files, this thief couple were very agile- even if they weren’t golden class, they had near golden class levels of strength.
“Me, and you?” Lingshan paused- this suggestion didn’t cross any lines or anything. Considering their profession, It was pretty common, but Lingshan sort of didn’t want to do it with Yutian!
“Yes, it’s really dangerous in the tomb, and these grave robbers are pretty strong as well. The people who go in there without being good enough might very well die!” Yutian said solemnly. “Lingshan, there are no personal intentions here- I’m just thinking of the big picture. Although, if you were to pretend to be a couple with me, I’d still be really happy, even though it’s fake, at least I’d have experienced it…”
Yutian was being quite candid and unreserved- this made Lingshan admire him a bit. This sort of personality sat well with her.
Although, even so, there was no way she’d love Yutian anymore.
There were two reasons- One, Yutian was simply not strong enough. Two, she already liked someone! Lingshan felt that no one compared to Lin Yi at this point, and while he was cocky and a bit brutal, he was strong enough to back it up!
Not only was he brave and strong, but he was also a doctor- and most importantly, he could level up your strength! Even more important, although this man was a bit of a playboy, he wasn’t the dirty type of playboy. Her seduction towards him failed a couple of times, and this meant that Lin Yi’s brain controlled his body, not the other way around!
Lingshan felt that Lin Yi was too amazing. He had everything, and he even helped her solve cases!
“I… Well, what do we get for cooperating with you guys?” Lingshan was representing the police force to help Yutian right now- this couldn’t be one-sided cooperation.
“For the credit and compensation, we’ll split it in half. Other than that, that’s it. The items we collect won’t be ours, and I’m pretty poor too, so I can’t offer you any prizes…” Yutian shrugged with a smile.
“Do I look like I need that?” Lin Yi rolled her eyes. “Alright, but as you said, it’s dangerous in the tomb, and you’re a Golden class early phase, too. We’re not strong enough. What if we get another backup?”
“Backup? Lin Yi?” Yutian was smart- he guessed who it would be right away! There were two reasons, after all, for Lingshan to pick him- firstly, she wouldn’t have to be his fake wife anymore, but Lin Yi’s! Secondly, Lin Yi was a master practitioner- the risks would be heavily lowered.
“Yeah…” Lingshan blushed and nodded, a little embarrassed that it was so obvious.
“That’s good- if Lin Yi’s involved, I’d be happy.” Yutian sighed. He was honest- some things you just had to let go, and you shouldn’t go back on your word.
But being able to fight side by side with Lin Yi was a dream he used to have. Now that it would be fulfilled, it did make him happy. The task would be a lot easier with him, too.
“Alright, I’ll talk to him about it then…” Lingshan nodded. “I’ll go call him… You wait outside?”
“Don’t worry. I won’t eavesdrop.” Yutian smiled. He felt a bit sour, but this was her phone call- there were some things she didn’t want him a hearing.
And so she called Lin Yi after entering the restroom.
“What is it?” Lin Yi picked up.
“…Can’t the dumbass girl call you if she misses you?” Lingshan was a bit unhappy about his tone.
“Miss me? Why don’t you miss me when there’s no trouble? There’s always something when you miss me.” Lin Yi smiled bitterly. Something needed his help again.
“Oh?” Lingshan paused, a smile appearing. “So that means I can call you even when there’s no trouble? That’s great, there are times when I want to call you but couldn’t since you might scold me, so I try my best to find some trouble I need your help with to justify a call…”
“Wha?!” Lin Yi’s eyes went wide. He had no answer for this response!
He couldn’t just tell her to call him even when nothing was going on, because that’d result in a call every few hours! But, if Lin Yi said she could only call if there was trouble, wouldn’t that give her approval to find trouble so that she could call?
He smiled dryly, changing the topic. “So what is it this time? Leveling up?”
“Level up? I want that, I do!” Lingshan’s lips pulled back in a prankster’s smile as she sweetened her voice. “When are you going to give it to me, I want it so bad, come on…”
“Ugh…” Lin Yi started to sweat- Lingshan was asking when he’d level her up, but the way she said it made it sound like she wanted that…
