Chapter 111 Daily Life After the Events Are Over

Early spring in City C wasn't particularly cold. The trees outside had already sprouted new buds, plum blossoms were in full bloom, and occasionally one or two peach blossoms, perhaps out of curiosity, would bloom early to peek at this beautiful world.

All of this was shut out by a glass door, along with the noise of car horns.

Inside the room, Yue Yiyue stared nervously at Gluttony across from him.

Binge-eating, on the other hand, looked quite relaxed, opening his thermos and taking a sip of water.

Yu Man watched Gluttony's hand movements with some wariness, staring intently at the object in his hand.

The emerald green backing card landed on the table. Gluttony glanced at Yue Yiyue and, seeing that he still looked terrible, breathed a sigh of relief: "Ten thousand."

Yue Yiyue was getting a little frustrated. Winning seemed a long way off, but he could only get up and draw new tiles, praying in his heart for a good hand, preferably a Red Dragon.

Upon seeing the cards in his hand, Yue Yiyue pouted and said, "Ten thousand."

Before they could even complain, they looked up and saw Yu An, who had been in prison with them all along, and their eyes immediately fell on the sign.

How could two people be so unlucky?

Fortune's wheel keeps turning, why can't it turn on them?!

Even Zhou Qingyi, a beginner, won several times, and they stayed there, firmly rooted to the spot.

Something's not right!

This is really not right.

Seeing Yue Yiyue's dejected look, Gu Nanqiu leaned closer to him with concern, her hand restlessly caressing his, and she smiled like a cunning fox: "Baby, do you need me to lend you some luck?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Yiyue pushed Gu Nanqiu aside as if he were guarding against a thief: "Don't look at my cards..."

"Pfft—" Gluttony couldn't help but laugh out loud, then a moment later said sarcastically, "You don't even have this much trust? Really, how affectionate you are~"

The tune went through seven or eight twists and turns.

Seeing this, Yue Yiyue belatedly realized that bulimia and forensic medicine were becoming more and more alike. When dealing with people he didn't like, his words were like poison, never saying a kind word.

Yue Yiyue got so angry that he threw away all the cards in his hand.

"I won." Gu Nanqiu smiled slowly as she saw the card Yi Yue played, and pushed the cards in front of her forward: "Thank you, baby. You really have a telepathic connection with me, knowing that this is the card I was missing."

The binge eating instantly stopped.

The forensic doctor rubbed Bing Shi's shoulder, signaling her to say less and to hit her first, then took over Gu Nanqiu's position. After the clattering sound of the cards being shuffled, a new round began.

The aroma of food filled the air, but Yue Yiyue, his eyes bloodshot from losing, lay on the sofa with a sorrowful expression: "I'm no good. My luck is just too bad. I'm not playing anymore. I'm quitting."

Gluttony scoffed, "Indeed, something like this can be played with by building a house out of mahjong tiles."

Looking at the delicious-looking food on the table brought back memories from several years ago.

I swallowed hard, but decided to eat first and think later!

After we finished eating, the mahjong machine's button bell rang.

Yu An looked at Yue Yiyue, who had snatched her place in a flash: "Didn't you say you weren't going to fight?"

“I think this spot has good feng shui, and this time Gluttony didn’t sit next to me.” Yue Yiyue looked like she had done a rational analysis, and firmly sat down in what she called the feng shui treasure spot: “If I still lose, I’ll be a dog!”

Four hours later, in a great mood, Gu Nanqiu picked up her coat and said, "Little dog, what do you want to eat?"

Yu An, utterly defeated, slumped onto the table: "Little dog, do you agree? Twenty consecutive games without a chance to get up."

Is this correct?

"This isn't right, is it?"

Yue Yiyue couldn't figure it out either, but the forensic doctor and Zhou Qingyi kept winning and leaving.

Surely it's not that she doesn't know how to play mahjong?

But Zhou Qingyi had only just learned it.

New player protection period?

"Puppy?" Gu Nanqiu leaned over and pinched Yue Yiyue's nose: "Let's go out for a late-night snack, don't overthink it."

"Maybe you're just having bad luck today."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Gluttonous's smug voice came over: "It could also be because I came."

"I told you I was cursed to kill you, and look what happened, you've lost so badly at cards."

Gluttony was about to say something more when a slipper flew and hit him in the face.

The next second, Yue Yiyue pressed Gluttony down on the sofa and grabbed a nearby pillow to smash it.

The forensic doctor, standing to the side watching the two men fight fiercely, asked: "Aren't you going to pull your wife away?"

Gu Nanqiu shrugged: "Why don't you go and pull your wife away?"

The forensic doctor sighed: "Yue Yiyue hitting me was just something he did on a whim. You should handle this."

Zhou Qingyi, who had just been grinning broadly, saw Yue Yiyue pressing down on the Gluttony Hammer and quietly hid behind Yu An: "This seems to be the first time I've felt Yue Yiyue's terror?"

That's the gluttony that's made countless soups for people...

That's the Gluttony that has bred many monsters, and even the Greedy Lord is somewhat afraid of it.

Looking at Zhou Qingyi's timid appearance, Yu An recalled the opponent's nonchalant and disdainful expression when he won the game.

"Don't just look at how Yue Yiyue beat up Gluttony. The one standing over there is Pride. His region has a 40% mortality rate, second only to Gluttony and Lust at its peak. Moreover, according to current intelligence, Yue Yiyue beat up four of the Seven Deadly Sins!"

"It's easy for Yue Yiyue to beat up anyone!"

Yue Yiyue, who had just finished beating up Gluttony, heard this as soon as she stood up. She was confused for a moment, then shook her head frantically: "I didn't, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!"

"When did I..." Yue Yiyue was about to defend himself when Yu An covered his mouth: "So you should show some respect to Yue Yiyue, understand?"

"Don't think that just because she won the game today, she's weak. She's just had a bit of bad luck in other areas."

"After all, all her luck in life was tied to her fighting skills..."

Hearing this, Gluttony, whose clothes were slightly dirty, wanted to defend herself, saying that she was just joking around with Yue Yiyue and it wasn't a real fight, but the forensic doctor glared at her.

She shut her mouth, looking aggrieved, and sidled up to the forensic doctor: "I won't make you soup tomorrow."

"I'm not going to cook eggplant and pork for you anymore."

Standing to the side, Yu Man, who had been inexplicably dragged into the rumors, finally couldn't take it anymore and slammed her hand on the table with a deafening roar: "Are we going to eat our midnight snack or not!"

"If you're not going to eat, I'll head back now."

"Eat, eat, eat! I declare binge eating is on the bill!"

"If I don't eat her out of house and home, I'm a bastard." Yue Yiyue was the first to react. She gritted her teeth and said, "Quick, Nanqiu, find that ridiculously expensive place."

"I'll book a private room, and then! I also want that flashy, gold-flecked thing!!! It costs over nine thousand per session, right? I'll have it ten times tonight!!!"

"Yue Yiyue, don't go crazy." Gluttony rolled his eyes: "Do you really think Gu Nanqiu is nothing..."

Before she could finish speaking, Gu Nanqiu said with a smile, "Yes, ten times the gold powder, and then Boss Gu said... yes... deduct it from her, and also her bottle of Romanée, the 1997 bottle, open three bottles as well."

"Gu Nanqiu!!!"

Not understanding how binge eating had broken down to this extent, Yu An already had a happy smile on her face, and she sidled up to him, shouting "Thank you, boss!"

He immediately turned to Yue Yiyue and explained, "That wine costs over 200,000 yuan a bottle, and the boss drank three bottles in one night. He's really generous."

Despite losing the game, Yue Yiyue's mood immediately improved upon seeing Yue Yiyue's frustration with his gluttony.

And she secretly decided that she would only sleep in a separate bed with Gu Nanqiu for one week.

After all, today's defeat was too crushing. It felt like even in her dreams, next to Shui Gu Nanqiu, the other party was grinning and saying that she had a perfect hand...

The room was getting a little too noisy. Gu Nanqiu threw the clothes in the corner into Gluttony's arms: "It's just a meal. Besides, you haven't seen Yu Man in a long time."

Upon hearing this, Gluttony fell silent.

Ten minutes later, the group headed to the restaurant they had booked in a lively atmosphere.

A gentle evening breeze blew, and Yue Yiyue looked up at the full moon hanging in the sky. It was probably over.

It took more than half a year of effort.

Gu Nanqiu noticed Yue Yiyue's movements and put her arm around him: "What are you thinking about?"

Yue Yiyue tilted his head and leaned against Gu Nanqiu in a somewhat lazy manner: "I just never thought I could live such a life."

"My aunt is coming to see me tomorrow and will introduce you to one of my parents."

Speaking of this, Yue Yiyue sighed, "Aunt Zhang was hospitalized because of me. I have no memory of what happened before, and I don't understand how a perfectly healthy person could..."

"Later, when my memories returned, I realized that the fish head had actually chased me several times before that. You shielded me twice, and Auntie shielded me once."

The moon was bright and the stars were few; Yue Yiyue felt unusually melancholy tonight for some reason.

Perhaps she lost too much at mahjong today. After all, she's grown up and has stumbled along the way, but she's never lost that many times.

Gluttony walked ahead and clicked her tongue, saying, "Fish Head is dead, that's settled. If we were to delve any deeper, we'd be locked in a life-or-death struggle again."

Before Yue Yiyue could retort, Gu Nanqiu became agitated: "Who are you sworn enemies with?"

"Forensic doctor, you need to watch what your wife says; what she's saying isn't right!"

"What gives you the right to be my wife's sworn enemy?"

"This belongs to me."

Zhou Qingyi followed behind, her expression somewhat complicated. She hadn't misjudged him back then.

Yue Yiyue tamed a loyal cat in this way.

Thinking of my older sister...

Fortunately, she didn't end up on the opposite side.

Looking at Zhou Qingyi's appearance, Yu An was about to go and talk to him when Yu Man pulled her aside.

Yu An was somewhat confused. He looked up at Yu Man, who still looked pure and untainted, and waited for her to give instructions.

After waiting for a while, Yu Man just kept walking forward on her own. Yu An pondered for a moment, then came to her senses. No, her sanity was stable now, she had returned to normal, and she was no longer Yu Man's subordinate like before. Why was she so concerned about the other party's every move?

It really is...

“Mr. Zhou, I’ve heard a lot about you before, let’s chat—” Yu An realized what was going on and casually put her arm around the other person: “How did you get involved with greed?”

"Did Yue Yiyue beat you up?"

“I had just regained a little bit of my humanity at that time, and I think I heard something about you from other monsters.”

Yu Man's face turned extremely ugly in an instant.

Yue Yiyue suppressed a laugh and snuggled into Gu Nanqiu's arms: "Thank you."

"What are you thanking me for?" Gu Nanqiu looked at the person in her arms with a mischievous look on their face, and she vaguely felt that she might be spending another few days alone in an empty bed...

"Everything I have now is thanks to you." Yue Yiyue didn't know how to say it. The things between them were too complicated, and if you looked into them deeply, they could indeed be a deadly feud.

But in the end, when they looked into each other's eyes, into those eyes that were focused intently on them, they both uttered a simple phrase: "Never mind—"

She made amends, didn't she?

Gu Nanqiu seemed to understand what Yue Yiyue hadn't finished saying, and pressed her warm lips to Yue Yiyue's cheek, which was a little cool from the wind: "No, you would be happier without me, but I'm too selfish."

I only realized I loved her belatedly, so all I could do was clumsily try to make amends.

Fortunately, she has a generous lover.

Fortunately, her lover will fall in love with her no matter what.

The forensic doctor stopped in his tracks as the two of them nestled together. With a soft click, a new photo appeared on his phone.

Gluttony was somewhat dissatisfied: "Why do you always side with Yue Yiyue? Do you secretly have a crush on her too? Don't tell me it's because you had a bad experience with her and I had to be your substitute."

The forensic doctor sent the photo to the person, saying, "If it weren't for her, you wouldn't be seeing me now."

Her tone carried a strange displeasure, and her fingers gripped the symbol she had personally carved when she made the contract with the other party: "Don't talk nonsense anymore, I don't like hearing it."

Gluttony clicked his tongue and muttered "crazy man" under his breath.

"Yue Yiyue, what are your plans for this period of time?" The forensic doctor adjusted his glasses: "Go get a physical examination when you have time to stabilize your sanity level. Mother Goddess instructed me to do it."

"Well, I'm meeting my aunt tomorrow, going back to the orphanage the day after, and school starts next week..."

"Then let's do it in four days." Yue Yiyue mentally reviewed his recent plans. "Perfect timing. I have a few questions I'd like to ask you—"
