Chapter 142: You’re Not Sleeping In The Same Room?

Chapter 142: You’re Not Sleeping In The Same Room?

Chu Ge sat on the couch with his hands clasped, while Qiu Wuji sat beside him, hugging a pig-shaped pillow. Both of them hung their heads down, as if they were apprehended by the police on the spot.

At this moment, Qiu Wuji felt that the pig-shaped pillow she was hugging might be Chu Ge’s embodiment. Perhaps Chu Ge’s mom had mistaken the pigs she raised, and this pig was actually Chu Ge. That’s why she enjoyed hugging it.

With this thought, her mood suddenly improved. She secretly glanced at Chu Ge, then sneakily looked at Wu Xiuyun.

Chu Ge was acting nonchalant, saying, “Since you already know, I won’t pretend to be a righteous person anymore...”

Wu Xiuyun: “?”

Qiu Wuji: “...”

Chu Ge cleared his throat. “She used to be a skilled underground fighter with no legal status. Now she’s decided to turn over a new leaf and learn writing from me.”

Wu Xiuyun took a deep breath, about to scold, but then she heard Chu Ge quickly continue, “She is now my girlfriend, Mom.”

Wu Xiuyun forgot what she wanted to scold and her eyes suddenly lit up.

Qiu Wuji’s eyes also sparkled, appearing both resentful and pleased. She wanted to argue that she wasn’t his girlfriend, but the words didn’t come out as she once again lowered her head.

She had to deal with his mother... Well, she would figure it out as they went along...

Chu Ge said earnestly, “No matter what her previous identity was, it doesn’t matter. Whether she was a victim of trafficking or an undocumented person, whether she was a queen ruling the world or a ruthless criminal, she is my Qiu Wuji. I like her, Mom... Your department is so capable, please help cover up the past.”

Qiu Wuji stared at him in a daze.

Wu Xiuyun’s gaze quickly shifted between the two young lovebirds, feeling immense joy in her heart. Children couldn’t understand the mindset of being a parent, always feeling guilty and trying to gain their parents’ understanding. Actually, this thing really depends on gender...

If the genders were reversed, with a girl living together with an unidentified man, insisting that it didn’t matter what he did, I still want to be with him, the parents would probably be furious and slap you ten times, then throw the man into the river, no matter how handsome he was, he would still be an ugly monster.

But when a boy brings home an incredibly beautiful girl and says, “Mom, I like this woman, no matter who she is, I want to be with her,” can it be the same?

Of course not...

Although there were definitely concerns about her identity, those concerns were on a completely different level. The more crucial issue was testing her character. The past didn’t matter as much anymore, even if she had offended international gangs and fled back to the country, so what? Was their family afraid?

After dealing with identities, they had had been quietly observing without saying a word. The observations were somewhat biased because although the young couple was always together, except for proving that they could live together, nothing else could be seen. This time, it was Wu Xiuyun’s suggestion to have Qiu Wuji help track down the enemy. Although she could find them herself, the idea of getting a “civilian girl” to help was not Moon Shadow’s own, but Wu Xiuyun’s. She wanted to see Qiu Wuji’s character and if she took the right path.

Qiu Wuji immediately agreed without hesitation, showing her willingness to cooperate with the country. Even after finding the enemy, she refused to leave and insisted on staying with them. That showed her determination to eradicate evil. She easily counterattacked when ambushed, displaying her abilities.

Noticing that both of them didn’t care about their own safety during the battle, ready to strike both of them with a single sword, showed her hot temper... oh, I mean her strong and confident nature!

Chu Ge said, “Indeed, there’s no need. Since its purpose is to assist beginners, I will use it for a while until I become capable of perceiving without any assistance. Then, I won’t need it anymore.”

Wu Xiuyun nodded satisfactorily. This kid wasn’t a fool after all.

The problem was, even if you’re not a fool, while others would find a month’s use of this sand sufficient, why do you need an extension for a month?

Feeling the gaze of his mother’s disdain, Chu Ge stammered, “I... I used it sparingly before.”

“Since you have something so important in your possession, why haven’t you been studying it day and night? What have you been doing?”

“Fa-Falling in love.”

The atmosphere fell silent.

Qiu Wuji covered her face with her hands.

This kid wasn’t a fool? While others would find a month’s use of it sufficient, had this kid used it only three times in total? Wu Xiuyun gritted her teeth. “Where is it? Why can’t I perceive its location? Did you lose it?”

Qiu Wuji finally spoke up. “I concealed it using my methods...”

Wu Xiuyun was greatly surprised.

It’s difficult to conceal something related to the supernatural world. So when the Wang family acquired it, it was like a firefly in the dark, unable to hide.

Yet her daughter-in-law managed to conceal it...

She had a slight thought but didn’t inquire further about how it was concealed. In reality, there were many people in the agency who could achieve this, utilizing special mental abilities. It’s just that her daughter-in-law appeared even more unfathomable, what abilities does she possess exactly?

Well... it’s better to let young people have some secrets. If she asks too many questions, it won’t be good for the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law...

Wu Xiuyun put aside her serious thoughts and lazily stretched, saying, “Alright, you can use that sand for now. We’ll discuss whether you still need it or not later. It’s late, is it okay if I stay here tonight? I see you have two rooms...”

Chu Ge and Qiu Wuji’s eyes widened simultaneously.

They saw Wu Xiuyun swaying her way to the door of the second bedroom and took a glance inside. Her eyes widened even further. “You... you’re not sleeping in the same room?”

Does this young couple have some problems in their relationship? Living together before marriage, weren’t they inseparable? And yet they’re sleeping in separate rooms? How will they live together in the future?

Wu Xiuyun looked at the couple on the couch with an unfriendly expression. The two of them exchanged glances, their foreheads beaded with cold sweat.
