Urging for more updates, then turning into a magical girl.

Chapter 42: Cohabitation Begins?

It was almost noon when Lin Yuyan finally got out of bed.

In the living room, Lin Yuyan half-closed her eyes, looking as if she could fall asleep again at any moment.

Looking at the head eunuch, Cheng Qi was genuinely confused.

This guy slept until noon. Was it because of the aftereffects of "Fan Kai" that his body was weak and needed to sleep to recover... or was this actually the original underworld schedule of the Grand Eunuch?

Recalling how she was in bed last night, full of energy, scrolling through daily tasks on her phone, Cheng Qi felt the latter was more likely.

However, what left Cheng Qi speechless even more than the eunuch's schedule was the kitchen in this house.

In the previous secret base, although the eunuchs and their gang often ordered takeout and ate instant noodles, the kitchen of that base had everything: pots and pans, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, gas stove, microwave oven...

But in Lin Yuyan's house... the kitchen area was completely empty!

To be more precise, there was a space that seemed to have originally been designed to be a kitchen... but the head eunuch had absolutely no intention of installing a gas stove or any kitchen furniture...

As for the refrigerator... there was only ice cream and drinks.

Does this girl really only eat takeout at home? Doesn't she even have the intention of boiling water?

Even a skilled cook can't cook without rice. Even if Cheng Qi wanted to showcase his culinary skills, he was forced to surrender.

In the end, Cheng Qi compromised and ordered takeout with the head eunuch.

"Phew... I'm starving."

Lin Yuyan was clearly really hungry. She broke off a pair of disposable chopsticks and started shoveling food into the stir-fried pork in front of her.

At this point, Cheng Qi had already assumed the role of the gentle maid "Su Chenjin".

"Miss Lin..."

"Hmm? Chen Jin, what's wrong?" Lin Yuyan asked, chewing rice and looking up indistinctly.

"I was thinking... now that the original secret base is no longer safe, where should I live from now on?"

Hearing Su Chenjin's words, Lin Yuyan also slowed down her chewing speed, swallowed the food in her mouth, and thoughtfully poked at the rice with her chopsticks.

"Hmm...that is indeed a big problem."

She looked up, her gaze sweeping across the living room before settling on the blue-haired girl.

"In that case, Chen Jin, how about you just live in my house from now on?"

Upon hearing this suggestion, Su Chenjin was slightly taken aback and looked around as well.

The current house, while spacious and comfortable for a single girl, has the problem of only having one bedroom.

"Ms. Lin... I personally have no problem."

Su Chenjin placed her hands on her knees, appearing reserved and proper. "But your house... probably doesn't have any extra guest rooms, right? Of course, if you don't mind, I can sleep on the sofa in the living room, or make a makeshift bed for me in the corner, I'll be happy to—"

"What are you thinking about?!"

Lin Yuyan interrupted her without hesitation: "If I let such a cute girl like you sleep on the sofa or make a makeshift bed on the floor, what kind of person would I be? Of course you'd sleep in the same bed with me! Wasn't that what happened last night?"

"Huh? No, no, no!"

Su Chenjin waved her hand hastily, her face showing shyness and resistance. "If it's just because of what happened last night and we have to deal with it for one night, that's fine. But if it takes too long... that would be too inconvenient for you, Miss Lin."

Although Su Chenjin's words were all excuses made for Lin Yuyan's sake, Cheng Qi was secretly laughing with smug satisfaction.

If we were in the same bed, I could stay in the eunuch's bedroom every day and try to monitor her every move to see if she was writing diligently!

If this person plans to stay up all night playing games, I'll try to correct her using hypnosis!

Just as Su Chenjin was envisioning the future, Lin Yuyan nodded thoughtfully.

"Hmm...it does seem a bit inconvenient..."

...?

Huh? Wait a minute, I was just being polite, why are you actually seriously considering it?!

"Hehe, Chen Jin... it's mainly because my sleep schedule is a bit weird. If we sleep in the same bed for a long time, you definitely won't get enough rest!"

You know your sleep schedule is insane?!

"After lunch, I'll go to the Bureau of Surveillance. With my authority, explaining the breach to them about the old base shouldn't be difficult, and applying for another secret base shouldn't be a problem. So, for the next few days until the new base is approved, please make do and stay at my place for now!"

...Alright, at least for the short term I can still live with the chief eunuch.

In this way, she could also gain favor with the chief eunuch, since the two of them had shared a bed.

Let's start tonight!

Of course, Cheng Qi didn't intend to immediately challenge the head eunuch with something as difficult as getting her to obediently type. He could start by adjusting her daily routine and gradually correct her current habits.

After all, the habit of staying up until 2 or 3 a.m. and then sleeping until noon is very bad. This kind of schedule usually means skipping breakfast, which can easily cause gallbladder problems.

An author needs to be in good health. What if she actually manages to completely hypnotize the eunuch and her health collapses? Wouldn't that make it impossible for her to write?

Su Chenjin has also finalized her plans for the near future.

So when lunch was over, Su Chenjin stood up and took the initiative to collect the remnants of the takeout food from the table. After packing it up and placing it at the door, she and Lin Yuyan sat down on the sofa in the living room.

"By the way... how are Liu Xiali and Xie Lan doing?"

Basil and Mo Ran Ying's surprise attack that day probably didn't harm any of the other magical girls. But from Su Chen Jin's perspective, it's indeed appropriate to ask that question.

"Yeah, they're both fine, no injuries. But to be honest, they shouldn't have joined the battle against an opponent like Mo Ran Ying... They're only at the 'Bud' level, and they insisted on showing off in that state..."

Lin Yuyan kept complaining.

"Thankfully, the people who were on my mind didn't really go for the kill. If all four Heavenly Kings had actually gathered back then... I really wouldn't have been able to do anything..."

Su Chenjin nodded slightly, "Yes... Miss Lin is a very powerful magical girl, but she still can't fight against many opponents at once."

"Those guys who belong to the Heart Sect also have their own principles. They oppose the kingdom and us magical girls who are stationed there, but they won't actually harm or kill magical girls..."

At this point, Lin Yuyan became even more puzzled.

"To be honest, even the fact that all four of them came out at the same time to capture me that day... was a first. Zhang Menglin said at the time that she wanted to use me for experiments, which seems strange now... It doesn't seem to align with the principles of Xinzhizhi's actions..."

Seeing Lin Yuyan's puzzled look, Su Chenjin smiled inwardly.

yes……

"We must not actually harm the magical girls who protect the world..." is indeed one of the organization's tenets.
