Chapter 735: Exchange of Identities
Gu Fan looked perplexed and asked, "Who is he?"
Neither Lin Xi nor Qian Ye answered his question, yet the glint in Lin Xi’s eyes deepened Gu Fan’s confusion. He had the feeling that this ’he’ Lin Xi referred to was no ordinary individual.
Just then, the space-time door opened once more. Gu Fan glanced back at Lin Xi, a touch of worry on his face.
"It’s okay, I can handle it." Lin Xi reassured him with a smile. With a meaningful glance towards Qian Ye, she conveyed her wish for Gu Fan to keep an eye on him.
Gu Fan readily understood Lin Xi’s intention and said, "I’ll come back for you in a few days. Take good care of yourself until then."
"Fine, I’ll take care of myself." After she finished speaking, Gu Fan and Qian Ye stepped into the space-time tunnel together, and soon disappeared from Lin Xi’s sight.
Lin Xi had a strange and ominous feeling. She feared the role switch could lead to chaos, much like the saying ’inviting the deity is easy; sending it away is hard.’
But owing to her agreement with Qian Ye, Lin Xi did not want to mess things up. So she tried hard to recall her past life, everything from managing the nation, to various behaviors and habits, so as not to expose her disguise.
Deeply inhaling, Lin Xi began playing the role of the empress and stepped into the pool for her bath. She reveled in the vigorous sensation the spring of life brought her. Thoroughly relaxed, Lin Xi couldn’t help but let out a deep sigh.
