"That's all for now, we'll head back first."

As Xiaobaicai said goodbye to Su Yue, she followed Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi. After they finished their late-night snack, they said goodbye to each other and went home.

Su Yue smiled and said, "Yes, please visit our cake shop more often when you have time!"

Yue Jiuling picked her teeth with a toothpick, watching the two say goodbye with a smile. She said to Ya Zi, "Hey, Long Er, keep an eye on Xiao Baicai tonight, keep an eye on him."

Ya Zi crossed his arms and chuckled, saying, "Hehe~ Don't worry, I know what to do, don't fret."

Wu Jing, who overheard their conversation, was a little confused. She asked curiously, "What are you talking about? Why are you looking at the little cabbage?"

"Hehe~ Well, we're not telling you that~"

Yue Jiuling smiled at Wu Jing with a mysterious smile, leaving Wu Jing completely bewildered.

While they were having a late-night snack, Yue Jiuling and Ya Zi didn't interact with Su Yue much. However, Wu Jing and Xiao Baicai quickly became familiar with Su Yue, so they didn't notice that Ya Zi and Yue Jiuling had any dissatisfaction with Su Yue.

"Hey, let's hurry back. I'm a little worried about leaving Duck Duck home alone."

On her way back, Little Cabbage suddenly thought of her lonely duck at home, and said worriedly, "I hope it won't run around and make a mess of the apartment."

Upon hearing Xiaobaicai's words, Yue Jiuling said, "Don't worry, your duck is very smart, there's nothing to worry about."

Ya Zi also said, "That's right, it's not an ordinary duck. If it could be given a chance, it would definitely be able to cultivate into a spirit very quickly."

"Really?" Upon hearing Ya Zi's words, Little Cabbage ran to his side in surprise and whispered, "Should I send it to the demon realm so it can cultivate properly?"

After learning that ducks could potentially become spirits, Xiaobaicai decided to send it to the demon realm so it could cultivate. After all, becoming a spirit would bring many benefits, and it would be better than being an ordinary duck.

"Hmm, are you really going to send the duck to the demon realm? Are you willing to do that?"

Yue Jiuling had excellent hearing and overheard Xiaobaicai's words. So the three of them went together and discussed the matter in hushed tones. Wu Jing saw their actions but didn't join in, because she knew they were definitely discussing some secret matters, things that weren't suitable for her to know.

Yue Jiuling always thought that Xiao Baicai bought the duck to keep as a pet, but she never expected that Xiao Baicai would be willing to send it to the demon realm.

Little Cabbage nodded and said, "Of course I'm willing to part with it. Why wouldn't I? Once it becomes a spirit, I'll have another monster friend. Wouldn't that be even more fun?"

Yue Jiuling understood: "Oh~ I thought you just kept it as a pet for fun. But if a duck wants to survive in the demon realm, it's probably going to be a bit difficult. After all, it doesn't have any cultivation and has only developed a little intelligence. Why don't you keep it for a while longer and wait until it gets stronger before talking about anything else?"

"Oh, okay then."

Xiao Baicai had originally planned to send the duck to the demon realm when he went back that night, so that the duck could become a spirit as soon as possible and he could have another monster friend. However, Yue Jiuling told him that the duck's cultivation level was too low and it would be difficult for it to survive in the demon realm.

When she got back to her apartment, it was already very late. Wu Jing was exhausted after a long day, so she organized all the documents she had received, took photos of them, and sent them to headquarters.

After she finished all those things, she took a shower and prepared to go to bed.

Yue Jiuling had already finished washing up and was lying in bed playing on her phone. She wanted to find Yue Jiunian and the others, but she couldn't find them. Her phone was off when she called, and she didn't reply to her messages. She didn't know where they had gone.

"Tsk~ How annoying, where did it run off to? Where did it go?"

Yue Jiuling grumbled into her phone, but after thinking it over, she decided to just ignore it. After all, she wouldn't die, so whatever.

After rolling around in bed for a few minutes, Wu Jing also finished her shower and came out.

Wu Jing tidied up her things and then said to Yue Jiuling, "Jiuling, it's time for bed. I'm turning off the lights."

Yue Jiuling had been waiting there for a while. She said, "Turn it off. It's so late. If you don't sleep now, you'll die of exhaustion."

After she finished speaking, she pulled the blanket over herself, looking like she was going to sleep.

Although Yue Jiuling said that, after Wu Jing fell asleep, Yue Jiuling secretly got up. She looked at Wu Jing, who was sleeping like a log, and after confirming that she would not wake up easily, she gently pushed open the bedroom window and jumped out!

After returning to the apartment, Ya Zi told Xiao Bai Cai to take a bath first. When Xiao Bai Cai came back and saw that the duck was already sleeping peacefully, she quickly finished her bath and prepared to go to sleep as well.

After Xiaobaicai came out of the bathroom, Yazi slowly went in to take a shower. But when Yazi finished showering and came out, he saw Yue Jiuling outside!

"You're here~ Actually, you didn't need to come, I could have done it myself."

As Ya Zi dried his hair with a towel, he walked towards Yue Jiuling. When he got close to Yue Jiuling, he could smell the fragrance of her shower gel, so he simply stood there and didn't move.

Yue Jiuling could also smell the shower gel on Ya Zi's body. It was minty and very refreshing. She sniffed the minty scent in the air and said, "Hmm, it's okay. I was just worried that there might be more people coming."
