After Xiang Yin left, Xiang Yan lay in bed for a while. When he found that he was not sleepy, he tidied himself up and got up.
When they finished packing and went downstairs, Xiang Yan glanced at the time and found that it was only 8 o'clock in the morning, which was much earlier than the time they got up on holidays before. Xiang Yan, Xiang Yin and Xiang Shi were all lazy in bed on holidays and usually went to bed late before getting up.
Xiang Yan opened the refrigerator and took out the ingredients. He walked into the kitchen and started making breakfast, while paying some attention to Bai Jing.
When Xiang Yan saw Xiang Yin and Su He walking towards the food area of the commercial street through Bai Jing's eyes, he smiled and shook his head, "They are all children, they like to eat."
There were a lot of people in the food area, and Xiang Yan felt relieved, so he withdrew his attention and concentrated on making breakfast.
Because of his unreliable parents, Xiang Yan has maxed out his housekeeping skill points since he was a child. Although he is not proficient in everything, he is good at housework and cooking.
When thinking about the time when he first started learning to cook, Xiang Yan couldn't help but think of his parents and what happened in the mirror maze before.
Although Xiang Yan actually had a rough guess about what happened back then, he still wanted a specific answer.
[Dear, your parents will be back soon.] The system heard what Xiang Yan was thinking and spoke out.
[Yeah, I know.] Xiang Yan nodded calmly.
Xiang Yan's parents will return to China for work reasons in a while. Originally, Xiang Yan had no plan to meet them. After all, there was nothing much to talk about, and it would just be awkward if they met.
However, after the incident in the mirror maze, Xiang Yan suddenly felt that he should have a good talk with them, not only about what happened in his childhood, but also about other things.
“……” He lowered his head slightly, and his hanging hair covered Xiang Yan’s obscure expression.
"elder brother?"
Xiang Shi's voice woke up Xiang Yan who was in deep thought. When Xiang Yan looked up, he saw Xiang Shi standing at the kitchen door, looking at him worriedly.
"Huh? Awake? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Xiang Yan restrained the expression on his face, revealed a faint smile, and asked Xiang Shi with a smile.
"I can't sleep." Xiang Shi shook his head slightly, walked to Xiang Yan, stretched out his hand to grab the corner of Xiang Yan's clothes and shook it, "We will always be with brother."
Xiang Yan was stunned, and his eyes widened slightly, as if he was a little surprised by Xiang Shi's words. Then he reached out and rubbed Xiang Shi's hair, and replied softly: "Yeah."
…
Kangling ghostland.
Lin Gui and Qi Qi stood with their heads down in an empty hall. In front of them was a high platform, on which stood a tall chair surrounded by black roses. A man in a black robe embroidered with gold and red patterns was sitting on it, looking at Lin Gui and Qi Qi.
"Domain Lord, this is what happened." After Lin Gui explained to the man on the platform what happened to them, he lowered his head and looked at the black ground in front of him, not daring to look up.
Qi Qi, who was standing next to Lin Gui, did not seem nervous at all. He stood there lazily, and after listening to Lin Gui's words, he simply responded, "Lin Gui is telling the truth."
"Really..." The man on the podium said lightly, then fell silent and stopped talking.
Lin Gui felt the silent atmosphere around him and lowered his head lower, fearing that the domain master would punish him for his poor performance.
But in fact, the man on the platform was not as angry as Lin Gui imagined. He had already anticipated that Lin Gui would not bring the ghost catcher back, so he would not punish Lin Gui for it.
As for why he didn't speak? He was just distracted.
Territory Lord: Silence, silence...
"..." Looking up at the silent Territory Lord, Qi Qi, who knew the Territory Lord's true character, curled his lips slightly, then raised his hand and saluted the man on the high platform, "Since the Territory Lord has nothing else to tell you, I will take my leave first."
"...Yeah." The man on the platform seemed stunned for a moment, then raised his hand and waved, signaling Lin Gui to follow Qi Qi to retreat.
After Lin Gui followed Qi Qi away in confusion, the man on the platform raised his hand to support his chin and stared at the patterns on the pillars of the hall with boredom.
Territory Master: Stare——
"If you are so bored, why not come and help me process the documents?" A clear and elegant voice came from behind the podium. As the voice fell, a green figure came into view.
"...I can't." The domain master turned around and replied to the person who came with confidence.
As the lord of Kangling Ghost Domain, he has no idea how long he has lived. Even if he could read before, he has long forgotten it after such a long time. Asking him to handle the documents would only cause trouble for him.
"Heh." The man in green snorted, raised his leg and walked to the side of the Territory Master, and said, "If you don't know how to do it, you can learn it, so that you won't always be idle."
"..." The Territory Lord looked at the man in green clothes with a rejection look, and slowly said: "Isn't it enough to have you?"
The man in green shirt paused, then looked helplessly at the domain master of Kangling Ghost Domain, "...I really don't know what I did in my previous life to meet a boss like you."
"I have good benefits." The domain lord's simple words choked the man in green.
After all, ghosts also care about treatment. Who will follow you if there is no benefit?
The author has something to say: This is a short chapter. Xiuzi is rushing to finish his homework. He has to hand it in all at once these days. I am really... QAQ
