With a clanging sound, against the backdrop of the night, a mysterious girl slowly emerged, her feet guided by iron chains.
Upon seeing Yan Chiyu, her spirits immediately lifted: "Ayu!"
The girl raised her slender, pale arm, as white as lotus roots, and greeted, "Your friend? Is it the one I mentioned last time?"
She seemed to have forgotten that she was restrained by chains, and in her excitement, she wanted to rush over. But then her feet, which were clamped by the chains, tightened, and as pain struck, her body lurched forward due to inertia.
Yan Chiyu raised his hand and waved, and Jiahe still fell, but this time the fall was more graceful. She sat cross-legged and said apologetically, "Please excuse me, I was just a little excited."
After a brief incident...
The group sat down at the stone table, while Jiahe squatted on the stone steps in front of the hall. The steps were covered in snow, reflecting the girl's jade-like bare feet.
Jiahe rested her chin on her hands, her snowy eyes fixed on Wuyue, never leaving her for a moment.
She swayed her body from side to side.
"Can you tell what her true form is?"
Wu Yue was lost in thought when she suddenly heard Yan Chiyu ask her a question, and she felt a strange sense of fear, like being called on by the teacher in class.
"Ah... let me see." The girl turned around and looked at Jiahe, her eyes focused and peaceful.
A few breaths later, Wu Yue said, "I know of four races that resemble mermaids. Jia He should be a mermaid from the Di people."
Long Jingyuan was very curious about Wu Yue's criteria: "Why?"
“She’s pretty,” Wu Yue said matter-of-factly.
In her mind, the mermaids of the Di people were the closest to the aesthetic standards of modern people.
Of course, these are all results she speculated and guessed.
Long Jingyuan smiled and looked at Yan Chiyu's face.
The boy turned his head, his deep eyes like the cold moon reflected on a dark pool in the night, soft and stunning, as if to drag people into the abyss: "Wu Yue. Can you destroy this place?"
"ha?"
*
What did I, a VIP, miss this time?!
The Witch God doubts himself every day.
[Wu Yue: I'm clearly a weak woman, how could you possibly see that I could destroy mountains and the earth?]
[hhhh, the witch god destroyed the mountain, he'll be imprisoned for life]
...
Wu Yue took the new address her mother had sent her and hailed a taxi back.
Before leaving, Yan Chiyu specifically warned her: unless it is a special period, try not to ride the Deer-like flying boat in the night sky.
She had the ability to remain undetected, but for some inexplicable reason, she listened to Yan Chiyu and obediently hailed a taxi.
Around nine o'clock, upon arriving at the new home, Wu Yue first went back to the bedroom to unpack her luggage, packing each item separately.
When she had almost received everything, Luo Shiming, the white-haired man, called, and Wu Yue put the call on speakerphone.
"Hey boss, I recently bought a really cool motorcycle with my part-time job. I was thinking of picking you up, but I've been waiting all day and you haven't shown up. Are you sick? Or did you take a day off? I'll buy some fruit and come see you."
Oh my god, I'm going to cry.
Everyone else is fighting monsters and encountering ghosts, but the white-haired guy's simple and honest nature is heartbreaking.
"Sorry, I forgot to tell you."
Wu Yue closed the cabinet and continued, "I came to Beijing as an exchange student. I probably won't go back until after my final exams. Take good care of your car, I'll take you for a drive when I get back."
"Okay. Don't worry, boss, I'll clean the car and wait for you to come back. And..."
"What?"
"Scorpion and I are planning to retake the high school entrance exam, but there's an entrance test that's a bit difficult. Boss, you're a top student, we underlings can't let you down!"
Wu Yue paused slightly, holding her phone. "Good luck. Send me your address; I have something to send you."
"Okay, okay, boss, I'll send you a WeChat message. -- Ah, Scorpion, give me back my phone, I'm on a call with the boss -- beep beep beep beep..."
The line went dead on the other end of the phone, and Wu Yue hung up.
Outside the door, there was a knock from Mother Witch.
