Quick Wear: Plan to Save the Unrequited Boss

When Xiao Zhiyan woke up the next morning, Wen Ling was no longer on the bed.

He was stunned. When did he become so unguarded? He didn't even know when A Ling left.

Hearing the noise in the hall, Yuan Jiu pushed open the door and walked in, only to see Xiao Zhiyan sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Your Highness, the Princess passed away late last night."

Xiao Zhiyan drooped his eyelashes slightly and responded, but a face that he hadn't thought of for a long time appeared in his mind.

It's Oman.

It was a bright sunny day, and the sunlight shone in through the gaps in the window. Xiao Zhiyan narrowed his black eyes slightly.

It doesn’t matter. From now on, having A Ling is enough for him.

It was a rare occasion for Xiao Zhiyan to bring his men into Chongde Hall, which was the main hall where the Emperor of Beizhao worked.

The maid outside announced that Xiao Zhiyan was coming. The Emperor of Beizhao was stunned for a moment, then wrinkles appeared on his face and he asked someone to summon him in.

Looking at the greasy and disgusting face of Emperor Beizhao, Xiao Zhiyan lowered his eyes to hide the disgust in his eyes.

Then he curled his lips and said, "Mother Queen, I have something to tell you alone."

Xiao Zhiyan smiled, and the Emperor of Beizhao agreed to everything and asked all the servants and maids in the palace to leave.

Xiao Zhiyan moved closer to her, pursed his thin lips, his dark eyes shone with a captivating luster, and the Emperor of Beizhao began to lose his mind.

His eyes gradually became dull, and Xiao Zhiyan opened his lips and spoke every word with infinite temptation.

"Anyone who wants to harm Wen Ling is your enemy."

The Emperor of Beizhao had a blank expression on his face, without blinking, and repeated Xiao Zhiyan's words without emotion.

"Anyone who hurts Wen Ling is my enemy."

A satisfied smile flashed across Xiao Zhiyan's eyes, and he continued.

"Your duty is to protect Wen Ling and give her everything she wants, understand?"

"know."

The Emperor of Beizhao, who was controlled by the heart-controlling Gu, answered quickly, muttering to himself.

"Protect Wen Ling and give her everything she wants."

Xiao Zhiyan nodded with satisfaction. He had become the most beloved son of Emperor Beizhao by relying on the mind-controlling Gu. The mind-controlling Gu was more like a psychological suggestion.

That afternoon, Wen Ling received a series of rewards from Emperor Beizhao.

It was said that it was because she had made great contributions in protecting Xiao Yunxin.

Wen Ling raised an eyebrow at the rewards all over the yard. Was she meritorious? It was good enough that her cheap uncle didn't get so angry that he vomited blood. But he still gave her a reward. He must be crazy.

Then she learned from Xiaoqi that it was because Xiao Zhiyan had used the mind-controlling Gu on her.

Chu Yuexuan, who heard the news, also brought people over and came to Wen Ling's house in the name of the Dali Temple investigating the assassination at the banquet.

"No, the old emperor went crazy and gave you so many rewards."

Wen Ling sat on a recliner, basking in the sun leisurely.

"Just think of her as having a seizure."

Chu Yuexuan pursed her lips, and then Lin Xunian walked forward and saluted the two of them.

After the incident at Changyan Tower, Wen Ling arranged Lin Xunian to live with Chu Yuexuan.

"Your servant pays respect to His Majesty."

Wen Ling sat up.

"What's the matter with me?"

Lin Xunian said he had something to see Wen Ling about, so Chu Yuexuan brought him over.

Lin Xunian took a deep breath and then knelt down.

"I request to be transferred back to serve His Highness."

The smile on Wen Ling's face faded. "Why do you want to be transferred back to me? Isn't Yuexuan's place good enough?"

Lin Xunian lowered his head, "I only want to be loyal to Your Highness."

"What's the difference? Yuexuan is also working for me. If you work for him, isn't that also being loyal to me?"

Wen Ling's tone cooled.

"Or do you have some selfish motives that you shouldn't have?"

Lin Xunian clenched his hands tightly, his palms were stained with sweat, and his heart sank. He knew that His Highness was warning him that he should put an end to any thoughts that he shouldn't have.

Lin Xunian smiled bitterly and knocked his forehead to the ground.

"I have no selfish motives, I just want to be able to stay by your side and work."

He just wanted to see her every day.

Wen Zhou, who was standing behind Wen Ling, had a flash of emotion in his eyes for a moment, but then returned to calm.

He saw clearly that His Highness did not transfer Lin Xunian away entirely because of the Third Prince's outburst in the Changyan Building, but also because His Highness noticed that he had thoughts that he shouldn't have.

Lowering his eyes, Wen Zhou could understand what he wanted.

Wen Ling stood up and walked towards him to pull him up.

"Actually, with your abilities, you can live well on your own without working with me. Working with us always carries the risk of losing your life. Why don't you just leave and live your own life in peace and comfort?"

Lin Xunian's body trembled. His Highness was going to drive him away.

Lin Xunian didn't know martial arts, so the original owner mostly used him for advice and more often than not, she just treated him as a sweet talker. But the two things the original owner needed were things Wen Ling didn't need.

So letting Lin Xunian live his own life is a very good way to protect him.

Lin Xunian knelt on the ground again.

"Slave, I was wrong. I am willing to work beside Master Chu."

Seeing that his head was red from knocking his head, Wen Ling had him taken away.

Chu Yuexuan fanned herself with a teasing smile on her face.

"Your Highness, the peach blossoms are truly in full bloom. So beautiful, so beautiful."

Wen Ling raised her foot and kicked her, but Chu Yuexuan didn't care at all and just stroked her sleeves.

"What's wrong with keeping Master Lin here? He's so sincere to you, so I think you should have someone who understands you."

As she spoke, Chu Yuexuan excitedly opened her fan to cover her face and moved closer to Wen Ling.

"Or is it that Your Highness is afraid that the Third Prince will get jealous and cause trouble? I have learned everything about Changyan Tower."

Wen Ling rolled her eyes at her. "You shouldn't be working at the Dali Temple. They should set up an intelligence gathering department specifically for you, and you'd be the director. That's perfect for you."

Chu Yuexuan shook her head and sighed softly.

"Your Highness, it's boring to change the subject. However, Your Highness is truly charming. It's even possible that someone as cold and cruel as the Third Prince would be so affectionate towards You."

She saw the real look in Xiao Zhiyan's eyes when he looked at Wen Ling, as if he was trapped and couldn't get out.

"But where's Zhuo Anren? Why haven't I seen him? Isn't he usually the one who sticks to you the most?"

"I went out to discuss business."

Chu Yuexuan was shocked. "Xu Zhuoan? Talking about business? A man who never leaves the house talking about business? He doesn't even understand the calculations, right? Are you really worried about not being cheated out of everything?"

Seeing her big reaction, Wen Ling narrowed his eyes.

"Are you worried that he'll mess up his business, or are you afraid that he'll be bullied or cheated?"

Chu Yuexuan choked, raised her folding fan and fanned herself.

"Of course, I'm afraid he'll mess up the business."

Wen Ling chuckled, "Then don't worry, An An has earned us a lot of money recently."

After she had made things clear with Xu Zhuoan that time, Xu Zhuoan came to her a few days later and said that he wanted to help her manage the business. Wen Ling thought that being ambitious was a good thing, so she sent an old friend with rich experience to lead him.

Unexpectedly, he became very successful and came back every day exhausted and excited to share his business news with her.

Seeing Chu Yuexuan's surprised expression, Wen Ling suggested.

"If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."

Chu Yuexuan flicked her sleeves and said, "Then I have to go and take a look."

Looking at Chu Yuexuan's anxious back, Wen Ling thought it would be great if Chu Yuexuan and Xu Zhuoan could succeed.
