She took off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, and pulled the quilt over her. "Good night, Jiang Yubai."

"Good night." Jiang Yubai was in a good mood.

Jiang Yubai made the bed on the floor, took off his shoes and clothes, and lay down, closing his eyes.

The missing part of his soul was very slowly coming together, and he seemed to be human again.

The breathing on the bed not far away was light.

Jiang Yubai opened his eyes, and a red vertical pupil flashed by.

He looked at the figure on the bed, and suddenly a desire arose in his heart.

In the darkness, desire is fermenting.

I want to sleep with her, I really want to.

He closed his eyes. The estrus season was approaching. In ten days at most, he would have to return to Yingshan.

People say snakes are cold-blooded, but he wanted to get close to her, to take her back to Yingshan, to build a yard at the foot of the mountain, to hold her and be with her.

But she seemed to like traveling, so he changed his mind and wanted to accompany her to see the mountains and rivers and eliminate all the evil spirits.

She is not the kind of monster hunter who kills monsters on sight, but can she accept being with a monster?

Will she like herself?

Jiang Yubai was lost in thoughts all night.

When daybreak came, he thought, I have to give it a try to find out.

When her breathing changed, Jiang Yubai opened his eyes first, "Qingran, good morning."

When Hua Qingran heard his voice, she was still a little shocked. "Good morning."

Having just woken up, her voice was a little soft and tender, unlike her usual cold voice.

Jiang Yubai sat up, without looking at the bed, and put away the quilt. "I've put away the quilt. I'll wait for you in the yard."

"good."

When Jiang Yubai went out, the old man was making breakfast in the kitchen. He went to the well in the yard to fetch water for washing, and then fetched another bucket for her.

To thank them for getting rid of the demon, the old man made some pancakes with the fine flour at home and cooked some porridge.

After expressing his thanks, Hua Qingran held the porcelain bowl and drank the porridge.

Seeing that Jiang Yubai didn't touch the bowl of porridge, the old man couldn't help but ask, "Master, is this porridge not tasty?"

Jiang Yubai shook his head, "No, it's a little hot, let it cool down."

Hua Qingran raised his eyes to look at him and took another sip.

Although it was a little hot, she felt that the hot porridge in spring was very warming to the stomach.

"Okay, Master, remember to drink it."

"Well, thank you for the treat."

Hua Qingran reached out and touched the wall of his bowl, which was the same temperature as his own.

Jiang Yubai looked at her and said, "I have been sensitive to temperature since I was a child and I don't like to drink hot drinks."

"oh."

After breakfast, the old man took away the dishes and went to the kitchen.

Jiang Yubai put a piece of silver on the table, and a hand appeared in his sight, doing the same thing as him.

He curled his lower lip imperceptibly.

Hua Qingran smiled and said, "Let's go, we still have to hurry."

"Um."

After putting up a speedy talisman, the demon and the man reached their destination, Xiyun City, before nightfall.

After some inquiries, Hua Qingran took Jiang Yubai to the Binmanpeng Inn where her monster catcher friend Lin Yingzhi was.

Jiang Yubai skillfully gave the silver and asked the shopkeeper to open two upper rooms. He then handed one of the wooden signs to Hua Qingran.

"Thank you." Hua Qingran took it and touched his palm. She looked up at him and asked, "Why are your hands so cold?"

"My temperature is low, that's normal."

"People with low body temperature are usually weak. You should put on more clothes."

Jiang Yubai withdrew his hand, "I'm fine, I'm not cold."

Hua Qingran thought of something, "Oh."

She turned around and went upstairs, knocking on the door of Room 5, "Lin Yingzhi."

Soon the door opened and Lin Huo's excited face appeared, "Qing Ran, you're finally here!"

Jiang Yubai looked at him, and when he saw the eagerness in his eyes, he suddenly felt a sense of crisis.
