"I absorbed your Mana, so this bit of energy is my compensation for you!" Ding Meng said calmly.
Guan Lin was a little shy. She knew that her current position would create an indescribable temptation for any man, but she still insisted on sitting up.
Ding Meng said again, "You need to spend some time digesting this source energy."
Guan Lin sighed. "You're not lying. You're really helping me."
Ding Meng said, "Now, try to recall again. Is the Songqing spaceship that you're on not allowed to enter the Empire's airspace?"
Guan Lin nodded. "Yes!"
Ding Meng said, "I've always thought that the Hidden Front was circling around in space to avoid detection. In fact, that's not the case. The leader of the Hidden Front forbade you from entering the Empire's airspace because you might be able to contact your mother once you enter the Empire's airspace. Once you meet her, the truth will be revealed. That's why you're still helping her count the money even after you've been sold."
Guan Lin stared at the ground silently, her expression melancholy.
"Thank you!" Guan Lin looked up at Ding Meng again.
"You don't have to thank me!" Ding Meng waved his hand decisively. "I'm also using you!"
Guan Lin immediately raised her guard.
Ding Meng said meaningfully, "But I'm different from the leader of the Hidden Front. He's using you, but he's hiding a lot of things from you. If I want to use you, I'll definitely tell you the truth."
Guan Lin stared at him and nodded seriously. "I believe you. I can see that too."
Ding Meng also looked at her and sighed. "If I have to find a reason to help you, it might be that I'm a little envious of you."
"Envious of me?"
Guan Lin was stunned again. Even someone as powerful as Ding Meng would be envious of her. What was Ding Meng envious of?
Ding Meng said expressionlessly, "Because you have relatives!"
Guan Lin was speechless. Her ultimate goal had always been to become strong. As a citizen of the Norse Empire, almost everyone had this idea. Suddenly, she realized that she was wrong, because even the truly strong would not agree with this idea. Now, Ding Meng had proven her wrong.
Guan Lin looked up and said seriously, "I don't know much, but I can tell you everything I know."
Ding Meng nodded. That was his goal. He wanted to understand the structure and secrets of the Hidden Front from the inside of the Hidden Front.
"But I have a condition!" Guan Lin said straightforwardly.
This was also within Ding Meng's expectations. Guan Lin had been kidnapped many years ago, and it was impossible for her to not have some sense of crisis and intelligence to survive in an organization like the Hidden Front until now.
Guan Lin continued, "I want you to take me, right now!"
Ding Meng looked at her meaningfully. "You hated me so much before, and now you're making such a request?"
Guan Lin was very similar to Jun Ling. She seemed to be very flirtatious, but she was actually very straightforward. "The past is the past, and the present is the present. The situation is completely different now, and you won't lose out in this matter. You also have your own goals. I can see that you are the kind of person with perseverance. This time, I am willing to bet everything on you."
Ding Meng fell silent. He suddenly realized that he had still underestimated Guan Lin. However, Guan Lin stood up with difficulty. She took the initiative to take off her white shirt and walked in front of Ding Meng.
The passion came and went quickly. At least, the people involved felt that it was very fast. However, when the passion receded, the night sky outside was already faintly glowing. It seemed that the sky was about to brighten, and the night was about to pass.
Guan Lin put on her coat again and sat at the head of the bed with a strange expression. "When I first arrived here, the instructor, the station commander, and the butler were already here. You guessed right. When the boss isn't around, the three of them have absolute authority over the big and small matters that happen in the space station. They have a lot of authority."
Ding Meng listened quietly at the side.
Guan Lin said, "The station commander and the butler's identities are very mysterious. Although they also show their true faces, no one knows where they come from. Moreover, they are very strong. I feel that they should be experts on the same level as you."
Ding Meng said, "Number 2 to 10 show their true faces?"
Guan Lin shook her head and said, "No, Number 2 and the boss are the same. They never show their true faces. No one knows who they are."
Ding Meng said, "That is to say, you have seen Number 3 to 10 before?"
Guan Lin did not directly answer this question. "I used to study at the capital's Empire Star University. You should know the reputation of the Empire Star University."
Ding Meng nodded. "It's the best university that sends high-level talents to the entire Empire."
Guan Lin said, "The history of the Empire Star is even older than that of the Federation's Saint Brilliant University. Even when the human world's technology was still underdeveloped, the Empire Star gave birth to many legends. I once visited the Hall of Fame in the Empire Star University and saw the glorious history of many seniors. One of them was a legendary figure in the military. He was a general, and his name was Gong Ping. Due to his age, the Hall of Fame did not preserve any information about him, only some blurry pictures."
Ding Meng said in a low voice, "Could it be that he is related to the Hidden Front?"
Guan Lin said, "This General Gong had a glorious battle record and was famous. He was one of the most dazzling figures in the empire. However, there was a scandal about him two hundred years ago. He had an affair with his brother and sister-in-law and was caught on the spot by his elder brother. In order to prevent the matter from being exposed, he actually killed his elder brother's entire family. However, the matter was exposed later and he was found guilty of raping and murdering young children. In the end, he was arrested by General Ross of the Special Operations Department. The empire's court took into account his outstanding achievements in the past and did not sentence him to death. Instead, he was sent into a space-time crack and drifted in the depths of the universe, leaving him to fend for himself. The outside world judged that he would not be able to survive, so he should have died many years ago."
Ding Meng sneered. "I'm afraid he's not really dead?"
Guan Lin nodded and said, "I'm one of the few people who have seen the blurry image of General Gong. I always feel that his face is very similar to someone else's, at least 60% similar. However, I'm still not sure."
Ding Meng asked in a low voice, "Who is this person?"
Guan Lin turned to look at him and said word by word, "Instructor!"
Ding Meng pondered and said, "He was supposed to be dead, but he's still alive. Is the situation like this from No. 2 to No. 10?"
Guan Lin said, "Most likely. They were supposed to be dead, but they're still alive. There must be a very complicated reason for this."
Ding Meng sighed. "Such a powerful person is only ranked No. 8. Aren't the people before him even more powerful?"
A hint of fear appeared in Guan Lin's eyes. "The officers before him, I've never seen them in action."
This was the reason why she feared the boss of the Hidden Front. This organization was too complicated and terrifying. To be able to command so many powerful people to work for him, he must have some extraordinary means, not just strength.
Ding Meng also felt an invisible pressure. This was because he and Little Rascal would never allow the key to open the Land of Entropy to fall into the hands of others. This mission was far more difficult than any of their previous missions.
Guan Lin continued, "Officer No. 5 is called the Butcher. He rarely comes to the space station, but when he does, he's there to kill. During the day, the station commander said that he would be coming here today. I'm guessing that he's here to deal with you."
Ding Meng couldn't agree more. Although the instructor and the others were polite to him, it was definitely just on the surface. There had to be a deeper reason.
The boss of the Hidden Front wanted to meet him, but he had to be qualified to meet him. This Butcher was very likely the obstacle he had to overcome. If he couldn't pass this obstacle, then he was actually useless to the boss of the Hidden Front. Trash was worthless, so there was no need for this meeting.
Guan Lin's mind was connected with his at this moment. "You really have to be careful of this Butcher. He's very strong, very strong."
Ding Meng nodded. "I understand!"
Guan Lin said, "That's all I know."
Ding Meng said, "Thank you!"
"You're welcome!"
Guan Lin turned her head to look at him again. "I want you to understand two things. First, I'm not the kind of woman who would casually sell her body. Although my first time was taken away by someone else, I gave myself to you because your arrival broke the balance of this place. Since I've been abandoned by them, I'm very likely to die an unnatural death. Although I'm not your real woman in name, with this night's dew, I hope that it can increase my chances of survival."
Ding Meng sighed. "I completely understand. Otherwise, I wouldn't have agreed to your request just now."
Guan Lin continued, "Second, if I have to find a reason to give myself to you, it would be that I sympathize with you."
Ding Meng listened quietly.
Guan Lin said, "I didn't expect that someone as strong as you wouldn't even have a family. I heard the instructor talk about your background during the day. I think that you've not only paid a high price to survive from your exile to this day, but you've also been struggling to survive. From this point of view, I'm just like you, trying to find a way to survive. Besides, you're very strong, and I'm also willing to follow the strong. Of course, you can also understand that I'm flattering myself. You can kick me away at any time after you've used me. I won't blame you!"
Ding Meng looked at her quietly and said seriously, "Thank you for thinking so highly of me!"
"Thank you!"
Guan Lin said sincerely. This sentence of thanks between them already contained too many things. "I'll slowly digest the source energy you've injected into me. I won't be able to accompany you for a long time, so I can only stay in this room and cultivate. If you can come back and are willing to, I only have one last request. I hope to see my mother. If you don't come back and are unwilling to, I'll still say the same thing: I won't blame you."
This request was as difficult as ascending to the heavens. At least for her, it was almost impossible. However, for Ding Meng, the chances of seeing his family were much higher.
Ding Meng said in a deep voice, "If I come back alive, I'll definitely take you away from here and take you to the Empire to see your mother."
Guan Lin's shoulders trembled slightly. "I absolutely believe that a big shot like you is worth a thousand gold. I'll wait for you!"
Ding Meng slowly got out of bed. He had already sensed that the housekeeper had already arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the hotel and was sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed. Judging from the situation, she must have come to pick him up.
Ding Meng was about to turn and leave when Guan Lin called out to him, "Wait!"
Guan Lin got up with difficulty, stretched out a pair of jade-like arms, and hooked Ding Meng's neck. She gently kissed his face. "I don't have anything to help you with. I can only do this to deepen your impression of me. I'll wait for you!
I hope I can wait until the day I go back! "
