"Tsk tsk! No wonder the boss trusts Xiaocao the most; she's really so worry-free!"

Fatty watched in the direction where Xiaocao disappeared into thin air and couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha! I'm leaving too. First, I'll find that Red Dust guy, and then prepare the Cicada Wings."

With that, Mu Qingcheng left too.

Fatty turned his head to look at Zhuge Wushuang, intending to hear what she had to say, only to see Zhuge Wushuang pull out a longsword from her ample bosom.

How did she even fit it in there!

"It's been a long time since I've had a good stretch; Moonlight really doesn't understand a woman's heart at all!"

Zhuge Wushuang murmured wistfully.

Oh no, this mad woman is about to go crazy.

Fatty's heart was in his throat, a hint of fear in his eyes.

"What are you staring at? Hurry up and get ready! Didn't you hear Moonlight say Christina is sending over the Dragon-Seeking Jade?"

Zhuge Wushuang glared at Fatty and roared.

Fatty shivered and hurried off to prepare.

Honestly, he just wanted to quickly get away; as for what to prepare, he wasn't too clear himself.

Yang Yan slowly made his way to the apartment, and halfway there, he seemed to remember something and stopped in his tracks.

He thought he should go and tell Su Ye.

Last time when he left, he only gave her a simple goodbye, and she probably wasn't too happy about it.

At the "Yang Family Noodle Shop," Su Ye was there waiting for Yang Yan as usual.

When Yang Yan appeared at the street corner, Su Ye's face broke into that charming smile reserved just for this man.

Yang Yan also smiled softly at Su Ye, then found a single seat and sat down.

Without asking much, Su Ye went to cook noodles for Yang Yan.

Just like before, Yang Yan slurped his noodles, while Su Ye sat quietly across from him, looking at him with a face full of happiness.

"How have you been lately? No trouble?"

Yang Yan asked while eating his noodles and looking at Su Ye.

Hearing Yang Yan's question, Su Ye gave a gentle smile, gesturing to him that she hadn't had much trouble lately, just missed him a bit.

Yang Yan said nothing, bowing his head to continue eating his noodles.

Su Ye continued to watch him silently.

When Yang Yan left the "Yang Family Noodle Shop," it was already the afternoon.

Back at the apartment, Cai'Er and Zhou Hanyu had already returned.

At the moment, the two were busy with something in Zhou Hanyu's room, from which occasional bursts of happy laughter could be heard.

Yang Yan went and knocked on the door, and it was Cai'Er who opened it.

Seeing Yang Yan, the young girl sweetly called "Dad" and then ran back to Zhou Hanyu's side.

"Where's your sister?"

Yang Yan asked Zhou Hanyu.

"She went to the company, just left a short while ago. Why, do you need to see her?"

Zhou Hanyu asked.

"No, just asking."

With that, Yang Yan turned and left the room.

Meanwhile, he secretly prayed for Nine Treasures in his heart.

He had seen these two girls changing clothes for Nine Treasures.

There were quite a few clothes at their feet!

Ah!

Suddenly feeling so bored!

Lying on the bed, Yang Yan couldn't help but sigh, and before long, he drifted into dreamland.

While Yang Yan was snoring loudly, a certain shrine in the Island Country was filled with kneeling people.

They were all dressed in white priest robes, worshiping a gourd.

In front of the gourd were two naked young girls and a large urn of wine.

Their limbs were bound to a table with ropes, and their mouths were gagged with white cloth strips.

"Please, esteemed one, come down. We have prepared the finest offerings for you."

The priest kneeling on the ground chanted loudly.

As the chanting of the priest grew louder, the gourd began to shake violently.

The priests, seeing this, chanted the mantra even more fervently.

"Who? Who is calling me?"

Suddenly, a deep voice came from within the gourd, as if coming from the depths of hell.

"Your most humble servants! According to the prophecy on the stone tablet, the time has come. We follow our ancestors' contract to awaken you and welcome your arrival,"

an elder priest said tremblingly.

"Has the time come?"

A handsome youth appeared before the gourd, his once translucent body quickly becoming solid.

Seeing the youth, the priests became even more excited, prostrating themselves on the ground in submission.

The youth glanced at the two girls and the urn of wine before him, suddenly showing a wicked smile.

With a gentle wave of his hand, a pitiful scream erupted from the girls.

The two crimson streaks on their chests splattered blood, cut away by the youth using Qi Force.

He placed the two red beans into his mouth and, picking up the wine, drank it down.

"Where will that thing appear?"

The youth finished the wine and asked softly.

"According to the stone tablet's reaction, it will appear in Huaxia."

The elder priest replied respectfully.

"Huaxia, huh? That's quite a troublesome place!"

The youth sighed wistfully, seemingly lost in thought.

"Your Excellency, that's what the stone tablet foretold."

The priest said.

"So be it! Prepare to open the Ghost Gate; we shall make a trip to Huaxia."

The youth said calmly.

...

When Yang Yan woke up, it was already 7:30 in the morning.

He stretched long and wide, then waved his hand to open the curtains.

Though it was already winter, a bright sun could still be seen in East Sea City.

"That was such a good sleep; it's been a while since I slept so well."

Yang Yan gently moved his somewhat stiff bones, murmuring in admiration.

Upon leaving the room, he saw Zhou Hanyu and Cai'Er with Nine Treasures in the dining room having a sumptuous breakfast.

"Dad, you big lazy pig, you finally got up."

Cai'Er looked at Yang Yan and sweetly complained, then continued to devour a bowl of soy milk in front of her.

"Cai'Er is always the early riser."

Yang Yan chuckled.

He noticed Cai'Er seemed to be competing with Nine Treasures.

Both of them had large bowls filled with soy milk.

"Since you're up, aren't you going to wash up? I have to go to school soon. Aren't you taking me?"

Zhou Hanyu, with half a fried dough stick in her mouth, said indistinctly.

"Uh..."

Yang Yan almost forgot about it.

Having been in Cainan all this time, he forgot he was actually Zhou Hanyu's chauffeur.

"I'm going to be late, let's go! You can eat breakfast when you get back. We'll save some for you."

With that, Zhou Hanyu got up, grabbed her backpack, and went out the door.

Seeing this, Yang Yan curiously asked:

"What about Cai'Er?"

"Do you think everyone is like you, shirking responsibilities? Cai'Er also has to study. Yesterday, my sister found a kindergarten next to my school for her. Starting today, Cai'Er also has to study, so you'll be picking up and dropping off both of us."

Zhou Hanyu said proudly.

"What? Cai'Er has to go to school too? How didn't I know!"

Yang Yan frowned, directing his questioning gaze at Cai'Er.

Though he knew Zhou Hanyu wouldn't make this up, he instinctively felt a little skeptical about this quirky second miss.
