After a one-sided torture of the ghost, Yue Jiu Nian won without any suspense, and then slept for most of the night on the train before arriving at the station.
Yue Jiuling had already finished get off work and was waiting at the station to pick someone up. The moment she saw Yue Jiunian, she rushed forward to greet her. Yue Jiunian thought Yue Jiuling was there to welcome her and was about to give her a big hug, but before she could even embrace her, Yue Jiuling pushed her away and took the 'Shuang'er' from her hands.
"What the hell, is this how you treat me?"
Yue Jiu Nian said, feeling wronged, "Without me by your side for so long, don't you miss me at all?"
Yue Jiuling rolled her eyes, perfectly expressing her disdain for Yue Jiunian: "Miss you my ass! Why would I miss you? I only miss my darling, mwah mwah~ My darling Shuang'er, I miss you so much~."
Seeing Yue Jiuling kissing Shuang'er passionately, just like he had when he first found her, made him chuckle. It seemed he wasn't the only one who missed Shuang'er.
Holding Shuang'er's trembling hand, Yue Jiuling said, "By the way, besides finding Shuang'er, did you gain anything else on this trip?"
Yue Jiu Nian shook her head, carrying her luggage as she walked towards the station exit, saying, "No, although I've found that cave, I didn't find the true body inside, and there wasn't even a trace of its aura left. I guess the true body was moved a long time ago. I just don't know who stole our true body."
Yue Jiuling followed behind Yue Jiunian and said, "Alright, we'll find it eventually, don't rush."
Because it wasn't appropriate to always bring outsiders back to the staff dormitory, Yue Jiuling took Yue Jiunian to stay in a hotel and also went to a restaurant for a meal.
"This is the place. The food here is especially delicious, and they also have pickled fish and boiled fish."
Yue Jiuling led Yue Jiu to the place where they had dinner last night, then introduced her to the local delicacies and ordered some dishes.
Suddenly, Yue Jiuling, who was seriously ordering food, was tapped on the shoulder from behind: "Jiuling? What are you doing here?"
When Yue Jiuling turned around, she saw that it was Ya Zi and an old man.
"Hey, what are you doing here? Are you eating too?"
Ya Zi had originally arranged to have dinner with Lao Gu Dong, but he didn't expect to run into Yue Jiu Ling here, so he came up to say hello.
"Yes, we're here to eat too. Did you just arrive as well?"
When Yue Jiuling saw Ya Zi, she said, "Oh, right, we just ordered some food, do you want to join us?"
Ya Zi nodded immediately upon hearing this and readily sat down, saying, "Okay."
At this time, the restaurant was bustling with business and almost all the seats were occupied, so Yue Jiuling invited him to join her, since they were colleagues and it wouldn't hurt to share a table.
Ya Zi had the same idea. He figured he'd be starving by the time those people finished eating and left, so he figured he might as well eat with them since they were already so familiar with each other.
Lao Gu Dong and Yue Jiu Nian had no objection to sharing a table, and after introducing themselves to each other, they started placing new orders.
"This beef looks pretty good, shall we have some?" Yue Jiuling said, pointing to the menu.
Ya Zi peeked over and said, "Hmm, let's have one then. By the way, do you want to order a fish? Don't you guys love eating fish the most?"
"Hmm, I'd like a boiled fish dish, it tastes really good."
Yue Jiu Nian didn't offer any suggestions on what dishes to order, since she liked the same dishes as Yue Jiu Ling. As for the old antique, he was even more casual, since he rarely ate and was open to any kind of food, so the task of ordering was left to Yue Jiu Ling and Ya Zi.
After ordering, everyone waited quietly for the food to be served. Yue Jiuling was scrolling through videos on her phone when she turned to Yue Jiunian and asked, "When are you planning to go?"
Because Yue Jiu Nian was about to take her exams, she asked her when she was going to City C.
Yue Jiu Nian gets a headache just thinking about the exam. She said, "Tomorrow, I guess. I just got back here and I really don't want to keep running around like this. It's too tiring."
"Alright, I'll take you to the station first thing tomorrow morning."
Ya Zi, who was listening nearby, chimed in, "Jiu Ling, is something wrong with your friend? She seems quite troubled."
Yue Jiuling introduced Yue Jiunian to Ya Zi and the other person, saying that she was a friend, so Ya Zi assumed that they were close friends from the same clan.
Yue Jiuling rested her chin on her hand and said, "Oh, it's nothing, it's just that this unlucky girl has an exam in a few days."
"Is the exam held at a school in the human world?" Ya Zi asked curiously.
"Yeah, I'm really getting annoyed."
Yue Jiu Nian rubbed her hair, turning it into a bird's nest, and said, "Why is there so much trouble in the human world?"
“Hahaha~” The old antique laughed when he heard this and said, “It’s normal. The human world has always been like this. Studying and taking exams are very important in their eyes, unlike our demon world, where strength speaks for itself. But it’s good that they are like this. They prefer peace and reduce killing.”
Yue Jiu nodded and said, "That's true, each has its own advantages, but alas, I'm just unlucky."
After the meal, the four of them parted ways and went home.
Yue Jiuling led Yue Jiunian to find a hotel: "I said, aren't you rich now? Why don't you buy me a house here? When we're all here, we'll have a place to stay."
Yue Jiu Nian had already considered this issue. She was unlikely to live in City C; she would definitely be with Yue Jiu Ling. In addition, she would likely have to travel frequently. Therefore, she had long had the idea of buying a house for Yue Jiu Ling here, but she just hadn't had time to go and buy one.
