...

In the courtyard.

Lin Jingzhu placed his hand on the hilt of his sword, his eyes slightly narrowed, coldly staring at the two people in front of him, "Saintess Yu, intruding into someone else’s residence is a serious crime. I advise you to speak the truth; things won’t be so simple if you end up at the government office!"

Yu Hongyin frowned, saying, "I already told you, it was Chen Mo who asked us to stay here."

"Do you have any evidence?" Lin Jingzhu said in a deep voice, "This is a residence bestowed by Her Majesty the Empress. As a Jianghu person, you neither have a rental contract nor have you registered with the city clerk. You can’t just claim to live here based on mere words."

Yu Hongyin was at a loss for words.

Chen Mo only mentioned verbally that she could stay here, but indeed, no rental agreement was signed.

Lin Jingzhu continued, "If I’m not mistaken, you are probably not a local either? Foreigners staying in the Capital City require documents approved by the authorities or entry registration, otherwise they will be considered vagrants and should be expelled from the city in accordance with the law!"

"You’re spewing nonsense! We are not vagrants!" Qiao Tong’s little face flushed red with anger, glaring furiously at Lin Jingzhu.

"Whether or not you are vagrants is not for you to decide." Lin Jingzhu took a step forward, not even glancing at Qiao Tong, his eyes locked on Yu Hongyin, "If you have a clear conscience, why did you run the moment you saw me?"

"I..."

Yu Hongyin bit her lip tightly, lowering her head in silence.

She had only met Lin Jingzhu twice; the first time was at the Heavenly Element Martial Examination held by the court, when Chen Mo was still her nemesis. Knowing that Lin Jingzhu had a close relationship with Chen Mo, she decided to concede immediately, fearing retaliation.

The second time was after they eliminated the Blood Demon, when Chen Mo’s life was uncertain, and Lin Jingzhu almost lost his life traveling to the Southern Border because of it.

The matter originated from the Netherworld Sect, so facing Lin Jingzhu, Yu Hongyin felt somewhat guilty...

Just now, she ran into Lin Jingzhu leading a patrol on the street, and she instinctively turned to flee, which was noticed, and then pursued all the way here...

It wasn’t entirely Lin Jingzhu’s fault for making a big deal out of it, though.

This residence had been vacant for a long time with no occupants, and coupled with her sneaky demeanor, it was hard not to draw suspicion.

"Now you have two choices: either have Chen Mo come here to clarify things in person, or come with me to the government office for an investigation." Lin Jingzhu raised his chin and said, "If you resist, don’t blame me for being harsh!"

"Hmph, who are you trying to scare!"

Seeing the other party so aggressive, Qiao Tong was fuming, immediately rolling up her sleeves, ready to have a proper showdown with this woman.

However, Yu Hongyin stopped her with a gesture, looked up at Lin Jingzhu, and nodded, "Alright, I am willing to go to the government office with you."

"Huh?"

Qiao Tong’s face was full of confusion.

When did the Saintess become so meek?

Yu Hongyin whispered, "This is Mr. Chen’s residence; causing a scene might negatively affect him. Besides, we haven’t committed any crime. Don’t worry, we’ll just explain everything clearly at the Six Gates."

"Alright then." Qiao Tong nodded, saying no more.

Lin Jingzhu, seemingly surprised by the other’s cooperation, nodded slightly and said, "Alright, let’s go."

Just as she was about to leave with them, a tall figure strode in.

"Hold on."

"Hmm?"

Lin Jingzhu turned at the sound, a joyful expression appearing in an instant, "Husband!"

She quickly stepped forward, holding Chen Mo’s arm, her fair cheeks blushing like blooming peach blossoms, and said softly, "What have you been busy with lately? I haven’t seen you in such a long time~"

?

Qiao Tong and Yu Hongyin were both dumbfounded.

The Lin Catcher who was intimidating just a second ago suddenly switched to a tender, girlish demeanor. The change in attitude was too abrupt!
