“Then what about you? This is 10,000 points. The mission content is not difficult. You just need to complete it as soon as possible. What are you dissatisfied with?” The little butler blinked and asked.
Gu Qingxue was momentarily speechless. She could only nod her head in resignation. “Alright then, I’ll complete the mission tonight.”
As Gu Qingxue spoke, she heard footsteps approaching from outside the door.
Gu Qingxue left the research inst.i.tute with a thought. She had just returned to her room when she saw Rong Zhan pushing open the door and entering.
When Rong Zhan entered the room, his gaze fell on Gu Qingxue. Seeing that she had woken up, his eyes lit up with a smile. He walked over to her bed and sat down. He reached out and stroked her long, soft hair. “Why are you awake?”
“l happened to wake up and found that you weren’t there.” When she mentioned that Rong Zhan was not in the room, Gu Qingxue’s voice was mixed with a faint grievance as she winked at the person in front of her.
Rong Zhan could hear the coquettish tone in her voice and quickly softened
his voice to apologize. “It’s my fault. I didn’t say goodbye to you before I left. I made you feel uneasy. I just woke up feeling uneasy, so I went out to look for Grandfather.’
Gu Qingxue blinked and asked in confusion, “Is there something urgent you need from the old prince?”
Rong Zhan smiled and shook his head. He denied Gu Qingxue’s guess and said calmly, “It’s fine. Qingxue, are you free tonight? I have something to tell you.”
Gu Qingxue looked guilty. “I’m afraid I can’t do it at night. 1 have to study something tonight. Why don’t we talk about it after tomorrow night?”
Tonight was the last good time to make a move. She had to seize the night and not delay any longer.
Seeing Gu Qingxue’s determined look, Rong Zhan readily agreed. “Alright, then we’ll wait until tomorrow morning. It’s still early. Why don’t you rest for a while?”
Seeing that Rong Zhan seemed to have something on his mind, Gu Qingxue took the initiative to lift the blanket. She looked at him and said, “Since it’s still early, come and sleep with me.”
There was no reason for Rong Zhan to refuse. He obediently listened to Gu Qingxue’s words, took off his boots, and lay down beside her. He closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Time flew by. That night, the moon was dark and the wind was strong.
Gu Qingxue quietly left her residence in her night-traveling clothes and headed straight for the old prince’s courtyard.
Gu Qingxue was very familiar with the road and entered the old prince’s courtyard very smoothly.
She avoided the guards and entered the room. She pried open the old prince’s window and slipped in.
The old prince’s room was so quiet that not a single sound could be heard. The moment Gu Qingxue entered the room, she released the sleeping incense that she had prepared beforehand.
The faint fragrance of the bewitching fragrance spread rapidly in the air. It was harmless to the body and would only make people fall into a deep sleep.
After confirming that the old prince had fallen asleep on the bed, Gu Qingxue quietly followed the instructions on the mission to the desk at the side. After moving the armchair away from the table, she pried it open along the cracks in the floor tiles and successfully found the hidden compartment. She took out a pitch-black sandalwood box from it.
After taking out the box, Gu Qingxue quickly returned the secret compartment to its original state. Then, she left the old prince’s courtyard as quickly as she could and returned to her own residence with the sandalwood box..
