Gong Jue had just stopped kissing Gu Qiqi. It was the shortest kiss in history.
"I'll accompany you the entire time in the forest!" Gong Jue whispered into her ear.
Gong Jue had sneaked in as a mercenary, so he naturally couldn't do as he pleased.
Even though he wanted to be by Gu Qiqi's side all the time, he was restricted by the rules.
This was because the thorny terrain only needed high-altitude surveillance. There was no need for mercenaries to follow on the spot.
Only when he reached the Forest Maze Domain would the Great Pharmacist Guild assign a mercenary to each team. At that time, he had to think of a way to become a mercenary to protect Gu Qiqi's team. This way, he could accompany her all the way.
