Gu Qinghan made up his mind and prepared to kill some more time.

And just at this moment, Lina, who had been enjoying the food, suddenly spoke and turned around to call Gu Qinghan:

"Hey, stupid assistant, come help me."

As she spoke, Lina wiped the grease from the corners of her lips, smiled slightly and continued:

"I can't finish these chicken legs. Can you help me eat them together?"

Gu Qinghan froze in place, staring at the half-eaten chicken leg, feeling inexplicably overwhelmed.

It’s not because this is the delicacy that Lina ate half of, Gu Qinghan doesn’t care about such trivial matters.

What’s more important is that there is another person next to him.

Larks opened her eyes wide, watching her love being given to a strange man by Lina, feeling like she was struck by lightning.

Hatred, anger, grievance, and unwillingness.

Tears glistened in her eyes and she bit her lips lightly.

The corner of Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched.

This Lina guy is indeed a well-known devil.

Chapter 49 (Update!) Sorry, I already have someone I like

"Why, how long are you going to stand there like an idiot?"

Little Lina raised the corners of her lips and stared at Gu Qinghan with interest.

"If you don't come over, I'll tell Sister Catalina about this, okay?"

Those eyes were captivating, as if they could see through Gu Qinghan's innermost thoughts.

"Mr. Hohenheim colluded with the spies of the Empire of Joy and attempted to rebel against the Pure Love Doctrine or something..."

"You can have as many excuses as you want."

Lina lifted up her white and tender calves, stared at Gu Qinghan with a smile, and whispered devilish words between her lips.

Gu Qinghan's expression was stiff, and he glanced at Larkes beside him.

The latter's eyes were bloodshot at this time, staring at the half fried chicken leg, silent.

This is the best way to snatch food from a tiger's mouth.

He sighed softly and finally took the half-eaten fried chicken.

Temporary surrender is a necessary step for him to clear his name.

I'm sorry, Miss Larks!

Gu Qinghan muttered to himself as he took a bite. The golden fried chicken was crispy and juicy.

I have to say, this fried chicken is really delicious.

The crisp chewing sound echoed in the quiet reception room for a long time.

Larkes watched all this happen, but was powerless to stop it.

The fried chicken was taken away, crushed between the man's teeth, stained with ruthless saliva, and then swallowed.

It was as if her heart was also being chewed and swallowed.

After a brief silence, Larks took a deep breath and tried to put on a tired smile.

"Lady Lina, you have a good relationship with Mr. Hohenheim."

She spoke lightly, her soft voice sounding distressing.

Lina blinked, then smiled.

"That's not the case."

As she spoke, she rested her chin on one hand, looked at Gu Qinghan with a smile, and then said:

"Although this guy has a certificate, he is just my small-time assistant at best."

"Don't think too much, okay?"

The corner of Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched, and he pretended not to care about Lina's nonsense and continued to enjoy the fried chicken.

"Eh, is that so?"

Larkes blinked, and his expression became visibly more lively, adding a bit of vitality.

Lina's words seemed to give her a little courage.

"But it seems like you two have known each other for a long time, like old friends who never talk to each other!"

As she spoke, she stood up, brought a drink, and carefully placed it in front of Lina.

This drink was made by her herself and she had treasured it for a long time and was reluctant to take it out.

This time, she still hoped that Lina could drink it alone.

"That's not the case, it's just that this guy is a really good toy."

Lina raised the corners of her lips slightly, turned to look at Gu Qinghan who was licking his fingers next to her, and said coldly:

"I am full?"

With a light snort, Lina glanced at the drink cup in Larkes's hand, not even bothering to touch it, and continued:

"Drink this drink again, don't waste it."

Gu Qinghan froze, glanced at Larks, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

【what? 】

[No, you little devil, don't you even have this much sense? ]

Larkes had empty eyes as he stared blankly at Lina giving away the drinks, as if he had lost his soul.

Gu Qinghan froze in place, and after a long time he finally snatched the drink from Larks.

The sweet and delicious drink, carrying the blue-haired girl's full love, was eventually snatched away by a man she had never met.

"that……"

Larkes' body was shaking as if he had suffered a huge blow and he could hardly breathe.

After a long time, she bit her lips so hard that they almost bled before she finally mustered up the courage.

Larks raised his head, bit his lips with silver teeth and looked at Lina seriously.

The two consecutive blows made her emotionally agitated and she threw her rationality out of the window.

It can't be delayed any longer, she thought.

Lina took the initiative to check her room, which was a rare opportunity.

She would accept whatever answer she got.

Just be sure to seize the opportunity.

Finally, Larkes asked word by word:

"Ms. Lina, what kind of person do you like?"

The mechanical ticking sound of the clock seemed particularly loud in the silent room, making people restless.

Outside the window, the chirping of sparrows is particularly harsh.

Lina was stunned, looking at Larks' serious expression, and didn't come back to her senses for a while.

"Yes, I do have someone I like."

After a brief silence, she suddenly answered.

Larkes opened her eyes wide involuntarily. She felt her heart beating so fast that it was about to jump out. She stared at Lina's face nervously.

Lady Lina actually has someone she likes.

This is undoubtedly the worst news, but it may also be the best news.

What kind of person will the other party be?

Will it be a man or a woman?

No, since Lina would travel such a long way to come to her home, there must be another reason.

Maybe the person she loves is me...

"He was a handsome young man with short, shiny blond hair."

Lina continued:

"Although he is young, he is an extremely powerful alchemist, reaching a level that ordinary people cannot reach."

"He is very calculating, unlike me who is sometimes erratic and sometimes excited, and always has many loopholes."

"I have never met such a person, so I am so angry about him..."

Having said that, Xiao Lina deliberately paused for a few seconds and secretly glanced at Gu Qinghan.

Gu Qinghan: "?"

He held a chicken bone in one hand and a drink cup in the other, and choked before he could take a sip.

[Your lies are too much of a lie, aren't they? Aren't you afraid of being punished by God's thunder? ]

On the other side, Larkes's face, which had been secretly delighted just now, became visibly depressed with every word Lina said.

Her eyes were lost as she looked at Gu Qinghan helplessly.

"why is it like this……"

Larx muttered to herself, and her body began to tremble visibly.

Even though she was blinded by love, she could still vaguely guess something when she saw Lina's sweet smile.

Apart from this young man whom she has never met, who else can be worthy of Lady Lina's admiration?

The deathly silence made the whole room very depressing.

Gu Qinghan felt like a thorn in his back and was uncomfortable all over.

He wanted to clarify. It wasn't like that at all! This guy was lying!

But Gu Qinghan understood that Lina had more leverage than just this tiny prop.

Her biggest supporter is not the prop inspection, but Katarina.

"Lady Lina, you didn't come to my house this time to investigate any incident, right?"

There was a long silence, and the first person to break it was Larks himself.

As if she had lost all her energy, Larks's body trembled, tears welling up in the corners of her eyes.

The little daisy was struggling to raise its head, making a final attempt.

"Of course."

Lina glanced at Gu Qinghan, then smiled sweetly:

"I'm here just to introduce you to my new partner in the recent investigation. His name is Hohenheim, and he's a highly capable alchemist."

"He's also my best friend!"

The sound of something breaking echoed throughout the huge room.

That was the sound of a girl's heart breaking.

At the same time, there was another voice.

That was the voice that rang in Gu Qinghan's mind, a voice that had not appeared since the end of the Richard incident.

[Passive effect: Yellow-haired physique has been triggered. ]

[Directly opposite, two meters away, hypnosis depth from the girl Larx +20]

Gu Qinghan's face turned pale.
