Chapter 2982

The light of the teleportation array gradually faded.

Jin Chen opened their eyes and immediately turned their head to look beside them.

Chenshu…… Chenshu was looking elsewhere.

His gaze shifted slightly, just enough to avoid Jin Chen's gaze.

Jin Chen cupped Chenshu's face with both hands, applied a little force, turning that cold, immaculate face back toward him; his fingertips sank into the soft cheeks, squeezing out a bit of flesh.

Jin Chen said solemnly, "I've realized."

"You are the highest authority; without your active authorization, the system cannot forcibly seal your memories."

With his cheeks held, Chenshu's lips puckered slightly; this pose made him look a bit less divinely aloof, he gave a slight nod, his eyes looking especially innocent.

"You already knew." Jin Chen said, pressing his fingertip lightly on Chenshu's cheek, "You deliberately kept your memories."

Chenshu blinked again, the corners of his mouth curving up, and candidly admitted, "Mm."

Jin Chen: "……"

Taking advantage of Jin Chen holding his face, Chenshu planted a kiss on the corner of Jin Chen's lips, "This is good; I can find you faster."

Jin Chen hummed twice, then lightly pinched the Main God's excellently-feeling cheek, deliberately rubbing it twice; Chenshu let him fool around, and only then stepped forward and backward out of the teleportation array.

Outside the array, Xu Li and Wei Ze'an had already been waiting for a while.

Seeing the two come out, Xu Li's legs went weak, and he almost knelt down directly.

He anxiously observed the two big shots' expressions; the Main God…… the Main God showed no joy or anger, still bearing that cold, snow-capped-mountain demeanor, giving nothing away; he seemed in an okay mood, but it was hard to tell.

He sneakily glanced at Jin Chen…… huh? Why does he look so relaxed in his brows and eyes.

Could it be that the system didn't malfunction, and the two big shots had an excellent experience?

Xu Li felt his heart pounding, cleared his throat, mustered all his courage, and carefully asked, "You two…… how was the experience? Are you satisfied?"

Jin Chen lazily hummed, wrapped his arms around Chenshu's waist from behind, resting his chin affectionately on his shoulder, and said casually, "Not bad, pretty interesting."

Feeling the warmth and weight from behind, Chenshu's body relaxed slightly, he leaned back, and also gave a soft hum, going along with it.

Just as Xu Li was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Chenshu say flatly, "Regarding the experience card's memory sealing function, there is a permission loophole; I will later open the permission to seal memories."

Xu Li: "……"

As expected, it still went wrong!

Although the bureau chief seemed not angry, and Jin Chen senior appeared quite pleased, this is a major work mistake; will the chief think he's incompetent? Will it affect his future leave applications? Will they deduct his performance?

In an instant, countless tragic scenes flashed through Xu Li's mind; he took a big step back, and swiftly shoved the dazed Wei Ze'an standing beside him forward.

The action was swift, the posture decisive.

Wei Ze'an, shoved forward unexpectedly: "……"

Jin Chen: "……Huh."

He raised an eyebrow, glanced with interest at the gloomy department head pushed out as a shield, and couldn't help remarking, "The Quick Transmigration Bureau really drains people's energy—look at how our department head Wei is worn out, his soul almost fled."

Chenshu's gaze also fell on Wei Ze'an's face, but he said nothing more, merely adding calmly, "We'll discuss this later; you go back first."

He lightly patted Jin Chen's hand that was wrapped around his waist; Jin Chen accordingly withdrew his hand and changed to holding hands as they left.

——

Jin Chen rested for a few days, and meanwhile glanced over some of the Quick Transmigration Bureau's recent accumulated matters that needed his review.

Ling Gun Gun was absent, the courtyard grew much quieter, without the constant chattering in his ears; Jin Chen sometimes felt something was missing.

But he didn't dwell on it; Jin Chen emphasized that he just felt bored, so he took a moment to contact Bai Ze and Ling Gun Gun, who were vacationing and cultivating in a small world.

As soon as the call connected, Ling Gun Gun's joyful, earsplitting greeting came from the light screen—his furry, noticeably rounder pixiu head filling the entire display.

"Host host host!!!"

Jin Chen was startled by its shout, leaning back instinctively and moving the communicator farther away.

Ling Gun Gun excitedly waved his furry paws, looking spirited; his oily, sleek fur, nourished by the abundant spiritual energy of the special small world, seemed to glow with a faint treasure light, indeed giving off a bit of mighty aura, the auspicious beast's grandeur of attracting wealth.

"Host host! I miss you so much! How have you been lately? Have you been to any fun small worlds? Without that smart, cute, and powerful pixiu lord keeping you company, don't you feel lonely, empty, and bored?"

Ling Gun Gun fired off questions like a barrage; after asking, he didn't wait for Jin Chen's answer, but went on to share his vacation life nonstop, chattering and gesticulating.

"Let me tell you, host! This place is amazing! Everywhere are sparkling energy ores—tasty and pretty! The boss takes me every day to find the richest veins! I can nibble different-flavored crystals each day! I feel I'm a big step closer to transforming…"

Jin Chen's head was buzzing.

He sincerely looked toward Ling Gun Gun's back; Bai Ze appeared relaxed, his expression calm, free from the Quick Transmigration Bureau's burdens, his whole demeanor much more relaxed, even showing a leisureliness rarely seen usually.

"You really don't find it noisy?" Jin Chen asked from the heart.
