Chapter 173 Overnight Stay!
"Lord Lin Yu, if the heroes in the stories appeared in the real world, they would surely be as gentle as you. But I am just a prostitute and do not deserve to be saved by you, so my answer is no."
Chunji wore a sad smile, but her tone was very firm as she directly rejected Lin Yu.
Although they were only a minority, some prostitutes in the redemption district were redeemed by adventurers and left. Leaving the redemption district did not guarantee happiness, but at least there was a possibility of happiness.
Haruhime had also dreamt of such a thing, but she knew very well that it was just wishful thinking. She was not qualified, and the goddess Ishtar would not let her go!
Therefore, even if Lord Lin Yu reached out to her like a hero in her dreams, she could not accept it. Otherwise, she would probably suffer great hardships and even destruction, just like the heroes in the tales of heroes who approach prostitutes.
Lin Yu was not surprised by Haruhime's refusal. After all, Haruhime was both kind and insecure, and she knew that the Ishtar Familia would not let her go, so she naturally did not want to involve others.
Even so, Lin Yu could not give up.
"Gentleness? Salvation?"
"Haruhime, perhaps you have some misunderstanding about me. I am not the gentle hero you imagine. I can't even be called a good person."
Lin Yu was prepared to tell the truth.
"Lord Lin Yu...
""
Chunji was somewhat puzzled, wondering why Lin Yu would say such a thing.
"I am well aware that unfortunate things happen in this world every day, but I have never thought about saving them. Even if I encounter them in person, I only decide whether to intervene based on my mood. So I am not a good person, just a person who does whatever he wants."
"Even the desire to save you wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision, but because you have enough value."
Although pretending to be a hero and saving Chun Ji would surely make her devoted to him, Lin Yu wasn't shameless enough to deceive a little girl. Since telling the truth would achieve his goal, why go against his conscience?
"I am but a prostitute, what value do I have? Lord Lin Yu, are you mistaken?"
Lin Yu's words surprised Chun Ji, but she was not disappointed, because she had never had any hope in the first place.
"You possess a spell called the Magic Hammer," which can temporarily raise an adventurer's level by one, right?"
"Lord Lin Yu, how did you know about this?"
Haruhime was quite surprised. Her magical information was top secret, and even within the Ishtar Familia, only a very few people knew it. How did Lord Lin Yu know it?
"You don't need to know how I found out about this. All you need to know is that I'm determined to have you."
Lin Yu's words made Chun Ji blush slightly. Although she knew that Lord Lin Yu only valued her magic, she still felt like she had been openly confessed her love.
"Lord Lin Yu, but the Ishtar Familia is very powerful, they have..."
If Lord Lin Yu could take him away, it would definitely be better than staying with the Ishtar Familia. However, the Ishtar Familia is a large A-rank family with many powerful adventurers. Haruhime doesn't want Lord Lin Yu to be in danger because of her, so she wanted to persuade him, but she was interrupted as soon as she opened her mouth.
"The Ishtar Familia may seem powerful to most people, but to me they are nothing but worthless mortals. So, Haruhime, you don't need to worry. Just wait a little while, and you will live a happier life than you do now after you join my Familia."
The strongest member of the Ishtar Familia is only an Iv5, which is nothing to Lin Yu. If he simply wanted to defeat her, it would be a piece of cake.
"I understand, Lord Lin Yu. Please be careful in everything you do."
Seeing that Lin Yu had made his decision, Chun Ji knew that she could only wait for the final result, so she silently wished Lin Yu victory.
Leaving that topic aside, the two continued chatting. Chunji was very interested in Lin Yu's experiences and kept asking questions. Lin Yu then told her some of his experiences, making some deletions and additions. Before they knew it, the moonlight outside the window became brighter, and it was past midnight.
"Lord Lin Yu, it's getting late. Let me help you get some rest."
Chunji also noticed the passage of time, and then suddenly stood up, blushing as she prepared to take off her clothes.
"No need. From now on, we will be members of a clan, like family, so you don't need to do this."
Lin Yu usually wouldn't refuse a beautiful woman who was interested in throwing herself at him, but agreeing now would be a bit shady, so he refused directly.
"Yes... Lord Lin Yu..."
""
Haruhime blushed even more after being refused a night with Lin Yu, but her anticipation of joining Lin Yu's clan only grew stronger.
Lord Lin Yu is not a bad person as he claims; on the contrary, he seems to be a more authentic hero!
"Let's take a break."
""
"Yes, Lord Lin Yu."
Although it was late, it was also early, so Lin Yu didn't want to leave immediately. He suggested they rest, since it was just a matter of sleeping anyway.
However, in order to avoid being discovered as amiss, the two still had to take off their outer clothes and sleep in the same bed, because the Ishtar Familia would definitely send someone to check on Haruhime's condition.
In the past, whenever Chunji saw a man's collarbone while entertaining guests, she would immediately faint from embarrassment. As a result, her colleagues always had to entertain guests for her. Therefore, Chunji is still a virgin.
For this reason, someone would inevitably come at night to check if Chunji had fainted again.
Sure enough, not long after the two lay down, footsteps could be heard outside the house.
"Excuse me."
To avoid being discovered that he wasn't a guest, Lin Yu naturally had to act a little more intimately. So he hugged Chun Ji tightly, turned his back to the door, and listened intently to the sounds outside.
Footsteps approached and stopped at the door, followed by the sound of the door being pulled open only slightly, indicating that the person did not want to disturb the people inside.
"Are you alright this time?"
The person outside the door saw the two people embracing intimately inside the room, muttered something under their breath, then gently closed the door and walked away.
[It seems they've already left.]
As the footsteps faded away, Lin Yu breathed a sigh of relief, and then things he hadn't paid attention to before became clear.
First, there was a woman's fragrance that invigorated him. Then came the sensation of her chest. Even through the fabric, he could clearly feel Chunji's figure, which other women envied. It was then that Lin Yu realized that the two of them were being a little too intimate.
"I'm sorry, I was rude just now."
Lin Yu quickly released Chun Ji, but inwardly he sighed that this vixen was far too tempting.
"It's alright, Lord Lin Yu."

Chunji blushed, but she didn't reject the intimate contact she had just experienced.
At this point, someone had already checked once, so the likelihood of them checking again was slim, and the two could finally rest assured.
