On the Ark.

"Don't you want to be a mascot?"

"No." Lin Ye stroked his chin. "To be honest, I really do want to."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled.

“Since you have no objections, then get ready,” Amiya said. “You’ll be a Doctor soon.”

"Does a doctor have any special privileges?"

Amiya tilted her head: "What other privileges do you want?"

"Uh, I was just asking."

“It’s up to you,” Amiya said. “But rather than privileges, there’s something I need you to do now, as a Doctor.”

Lin Ye's expression immediately fell: "No way, didn't we agree that I only needed to be a mascot? How come I have to start working before I've even officially taken office?"

“There’s no other way, you have to do some things,” Amiya said. “It’s just to meet someone, a representative from Lungmen, whose identity I heard is quite special. Originally, Professor Kal’tsit was supposed to receive him personally, but since you’re already a Doctor, then you can go instead.”

A representative sent by Longmen?

Who is it?

Is it Chen or Shi Huai-ya?

Lin Ye, filled with doubt, was led onto the warship by Amiya. This was Lin Ye's first time on a warship, but before he could even tour it, Amiya handed him a doctor's coat and took him to the reception hall.

As soon as he entered, Lin Ye saw the orange-haired woman sitting in the corner.

Encouraged by Amiya, he stepped forward and extended his hand to the woman: "Hello, welcome to Rhodes Island."

The man looked up, and their eyes met.

"Holy crap!" Lin Ye instinctively pulled his hand back, his eyes widening. "A flirtatious girl?"

The man was even more surprised: "Your Highness?"

……

……

Author's note: Because I don't plan to follow the plot, I've filled in the gaps regarding the Doctor, which was my initial idea (after all, Yostar didn't explain the Doctor's identity at all back then). Also, there probably won't be any new game characters, because I've already quit the game (unless there are any more beautiful ladies like Mostima or Nian).

Chapter 614 The Pressure of the Awakening of Insects

In this world, there are only two people who would address Lin Ye as "Your Highness".

One is Ying Li's housekeeper, and the other is naturally Jingzhe in front of us.

Lin Ye didn't know why Jingzhe had suddenly appeared on Rhodes Island, but he didn't have time to think about it anymore. After all, Amiya was right behind him and had naturally heard Jingzhe's address to him. She was very puzzled: "Your Highness? Are you calling the Doctor?"

"How...how could that be?" Lin Ye chuckled and said, "She was talking about later."

"Wait?"

"Hmm, wait a minute." Lin Ye winked at Jingzhe, gesturing wildly, "Right?"

As the top executive officer of the Dali Temple's Surveillance Department in Yan Kingdom, Jingzhe's quick thinking was naturally impressive. Even without Lin Ye giving her a meaningful look, she realized how much trouble her earlier address might cause her. She quickly regained her composure and said in a calm tone, "Yes, I meant 'wait a moment.' Because I felt that the Doctor looked somewhat familiar. I wonder if you have recently visited Yan Kingdom?"

Lin Ye wanted to give Jingzhe a thumbs up: "Yeah, to be honest, I just came back from Yan Country."

“That’s it.” Jingzhe nodded. “Then I must have met you before.”

Amiya was still very puzzled. Her ears twitched, and she asked, "But isn't Miss Jingzhe an official of the Dali Temple? Why did she meet with the Doctor? Could it be that you committed some crime in Yan Country and were arrested and taken to the Dali Temple...?"

"Nonsense," Lin Ye said irritably. "Can't you wish me well for once? I'm a law-abiding citizen, how could I possibly do anything illegal?"

"Is that so?" Amiya didn't know Lin Ye very well, so she said apologetically, "I misunderstood the Doctor."

However, Jingzhe found Lin Ye's words very strange.

Good citizens who abide by the law...

If Jingzhe hadn't known what Lin Ye had done in Yan Country some time ago, she probably would have believed what he said.

It was precisely because she knew what Lin Ye had done that Jingzhe found it all the more unbelievable. She couldn't quite imagine how Lin Ye, a man who seemed so ordinary and unreliable to her, could have turned Luo City upside down and killed the arrogant Second Prince... Although Yan Kingdom claimed that the Second Prince had died during disaster relief, as an official of the Surveillance Department, how could Jingzhe possibly believe such propaganda?

The only possible cause of the Second Prince's death was the man standing before him.

After doing all this, the man did not choose to stay in Yan, but left immediately.

In other words, he did these things not for the throne, but truly for Princess Yingli, his sister.

Jingzhe had always firmly believed in the saying "The most ruthless are those in the imperial family," but Lin Ye's actions made her waver.

“Miss Jingzhe?” Amiya’s voice brought Jingzhe back from her thoughts. “Our Doctor has arrived. You can speak to him directly.”

PhD?

Jingzhe then realized that Lin Ye had come to see her as a doctor from Rhodes Island.

This surprised her even more.

It seems that His Highness the Third Prince is more outstanding than anyone imagined.

Lin Ye had no idea what Jingzhe was thinking, but he knew that with Amiya present, there were some things Jingzhe couldn't say to him. So he asked Amiya to leave first. As one of Rhodes Island's management members, Amiya was quite sensible. Without asking why, she left the room and thoughtfully closed the door behind her.

So only Lin Ye and Jingzhe remained in the room.

Lin Ye said casually, "It's just the two of us now, so please don't call me... By the way, you didn't find this place to hunt me down, did you?"

“You’re overthinking it.” Although she knew Lin Ye was joking, Jingzhe still answered properly, “I came here for work, and I didn’t know you were actually the doctor here.”

"I see." Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief. "That puts my mind at ease."

Lin Ye was still quite worried, after all, being targeted by Yan Country was definitely not a good thing, especially at this time.

Jingzhe clearly understood Lin Ye's concerns, and said, "I was originally supposed to be sent to Lungmen, but I was delayed by your matter. However, I was still transferred to Lungmen after it was over. Then I received orders from Lungmen to come to Rhodes Island to work."

Lin Ye asked with some confusion, "What are you, a prosecutor, doing working here?"

Jingzhe was silent for a moment, then said, "This is confidential."

"You can't even tell me?"

Jingzhe glanced at Lin Ye.

Lin Ye then understood what she meant.

After all, he was no longer the third prince of Yan Kingdom, so how could Jingzhe possibly tell him? Besides, even if he were still the third prince of Yan Kingdom, the secret missions of the Dali Temple could only be known by the emperor.

“Although I can’t say,” Jingzhe finally relented, “I can tell you that it’s nothing serious, and it poses no threat to you or Rhodes Island.”

"I see..." Lin Ye nodded slightly.

“So I hope you will let me stay,” Jingzhe said.

"Ah."

"You've given your permission?"

"Of course," Lin Ye shrugged. "No way."

Jingzhe was taken aback: "No way?"

“Absolutely not,” Lin Ye said. “How could I let someone of unknown origin into the island? That would be irresponsible to my employees. If you’re unwilling to tell me your specific purpose, I naturally can’t let you in.”

The Awakening of Insects fell silent.

She felt it was a bit difficult.

The Dali Temple's secret mission was naturally something she couldn't reveal, and she had originally planned to use pressure from Yan Kingdom and Lungmen to force Rhodes Island to agree. But now, Rhodes Island's Doctor was Lin Ye, and she really didn't know how to use the pressure from the Yan Kingdom's royal family to make the Third Prince, who had recently killed the Second Prince of Yan Kingdom, submit.

No matter how you look at it, it's impossible, and if Princess Yingli finds out, things will become even more complicated.

After all, one is a severe sister-complex, and the other is a severe brother-complex. The last person who offended them has already been thrown into the sea, and Jingzhe has no intention of soaking in the seawater.

Especially when she thought of the white-haired woman carrying a greatsword, Jingzhe felt immense pressure.

After thinking it over, Jingzhe said, "There is a compromise."

"Ok?"

“If you don’t trust me, you can keep an eye on me,” Jingzhe said.

"Surveillance and such isn't really appropriate."

“I don’t mean you have to lock me up,” Jingzhe said. “I just need to keep myself in your sight, right? If you’re still worried, I can live with you.”

Chapter 615 New Partner

Surveillance?

To live together?

Jingzhe's words startled Lin Ye. His already impure mind involuntarily conjured up images of "unscrupulous boss" and "imprisonment play." When he saw Jingzhe's long, slender legs encased in white stockings, he couldn't help but think of the "Secret Investigator" series of movies from a certain country in his previous life, and his expression turned strange.

"Your Highness?" Jingzhe noticed the change in Lin Ye's expression and frowned slightly. "What are you thinking about?"

Lin Ye subconsciously turned around and glanced at the door. Thinking that Amiya probably wouldn't do something as tasteless as eavesdropping outside, he said to Jingzhe somewhat embarrassedly, "Although I admit that this is indeed very safe, isn't it a bit too much for you to share a room with me?"

"Sharing a room?!" Jingzhe's eyes widened. "What are you thinking?! Why would I share a room with you?"

Lin Ye was taken aback: "But isn't that what you just said?"

“I mean living together, but how could it be living in the same room?” Jingzhe said. “What I mean is, I can live next to you. Across the street or next door is fine, and I can report to you every time I go out… This level of surveillance is the biggest concession I can make, and it’s also the biggest concession the Dali Temple’s Supervisory Department can make.”

"Oh, I see." Lin Ye realized he had misunderstood and felt embarrassed.

"Otherwise, what did you expect?" Jingzhe's tone became harsh, even dropping the honorifics. After all, she treated Lin Ye as His Highness, but Lin Ye was lusting after her... and harbored ill intentions towards her. As a paragon of female strength and capability, Jingzhe held a very high position in the Surveillance Department. Coupled with her illustrious family background, few men in the entire Yan Kingdom dared to make a move on her. However, this didn't mean she was ignorant. As the most outstanding executive officer in the Surveillance Department, she had seen quite a bit of the world.

Thinking of this, Jingzhe couldn't help but recall the first time she met Lin Ye a few months ago, remembering Lin Ye "playing" with a little girl in the bathroom. Her impression of Lin Ye immediately worsened, and all her previous admiration vanished.

If Lin Ye knew that Jingzhe's opinion of him had changed drastically, he would definitely cry foul.

It's clear that Jingzhe's own statement is problematic.

Moreover, before he came to see Jingzhe, he was misled by Ifrit, and naturally his thoughts went astray.

But what could he do? He was desperate too. He had wanted to refuse, but before he could say it, Jingzhe stopped him.

And so, silence fell.

A long silence.
