Chapter 499:
The Demon Realm.
Inside a cave filled with demonic energy, the great demon king of the demon realm, Xinmo, was meditating cross-legged. In front of him was a black pool. The water in the pool was stagnant, but it was constantly flowing, as if something was swimming in it.
Suddenly! Just as the black pool was flowing, a stream of black water flew out! The black water splashed onto the inner demon's face, instantly waking him from his meditation.
"Gone? How could there be no remnant soul? Impossible! This is impossible. It was definitely with her, it must be with her, so how could it be gone?! Could I be mistaken?"
The inner demon, with its terrifying red eyes wide open, angrily muttered to itself as it stared at the black pool.
The human realm.
Early in the morning, Yue Jiuling went to work as usual. However, when she arrived at the office, she found that she had arrived much earlier than usual. Apart from Yinni and Ahui, no one else was there. She also learned that Yazi had taken the day off and was not at work.
"Huh? Did Young Master Long take the day off today?"
Upon seeing the leave request written by Ya Zi hidden on the computer, Yue Jiuling realized that Ya Zi might have gone back to the Heavenly Realm to inquire about the Heart Demon for her.
Because Ya Zi verbally asked for leave from Yin Ni before leaving, Yin Ni had no choice but to write a leave slip for him.
"Yes, he went out last night and told me that if he didn't come back to work today, I should write him a leave note."
While typing, Yinni said, "I don't know where he went. I called him to ask what reason he should write on his leave slip, but I couldn't get through. Oh well, I'll just write any reason for him. Just say he's sick and needs to rest."
"That's fine. Anyway, there's nothing much going on lately, so let him take the leave."
Yue Jiuling returned to her seat, put down her bag, and went to the balcony to see the little flower fairy. She smiled and said, "By the way, our little flower fairy, you didn't sing today?"
Because of Bai Xinyu's incident, no one had time to tease the little flower fairy, so the little flower fairy hadn't been singing much lately. However, seeing that everyone was doing well today, Yue Jiuling, in a good mood, went to the balcony to see the little flower fairy.
Hi, Sister Yue, hello there~
The little flower fairy had just woken up. Hearing Yue Jiuling's voice, it opened its eyes, waved its little leaves, and sighed, "Sigh, I've been so tired lately, and the weather's gotten cold. I don't even want to sing anymore."
"Don't be afraid, let's go inside and sing, then it won't be cold."
Yue Jiuling found the little flower fairy's old-fashioned words amusing. She brought the little flower fairy into the office and said, "Alright, let's sing. Just sing your favorite song."
"Alright," the little flower fairy was led into the office, and felt less cold. It stretched out its little leaves, swaying its head and singing, "Where is spring? Where is spring? Spring, please come quickly! I'm freezing to death!"
Listening to the little flower fairy's song, Yue Jiuling said, both amused and exasperated, "I mean, how much are you looking forward to spring?"
"Of course! This awful winter is freezing me to death!"
The little flower fairy put her hands on her hips with her tiny leaves and said, "Hmph, it's not even New Year's yet. It might be even colder during New Year's!"
"Alright, you're pitiful too. Since you're so afraid of the cold, I'll let you stay in the office."
Yue Jiuling stroked her chin and looked at the little flower fairy, saying, "As long as you behave well, we'll let you live here, okay?"
"Okay, okay, I'll definitely be good!"
The little flower fairy was delighted to hear this, but just as she was feeling happy, she heard a voice say, "Oh dear, what's wrong with this little thing today? It's being so well-behaved! And it even said it would be good?"
As Ye Dongfeng clocked in, he glanced at his desk and said, "Good morning, Jiu Ling, Yin Ni, and A Hui~"
Ah Hui was wiping the windows when he turned around and greeted Ye Dongfeng, "Good morning~"
Yin Ni didn't look at Ye Dongfeng. He was helping Ya Zi write a leave request and was about to sign it. When he heard Ye Dongfeng's words, he nodded and said, "Good morning. By the way, where did you go last night? Why didn't you come back again?"
"Ugh, don't even mention it. My mom kept me here for a heart-to-heart last night. I don't know why my parents have been arguing these past few days, so I'm staying home to ease the tension and won't be going back to the dorm."
Ye Dongfeng sat down in a chair and sighed, "Ugh, what a headache. Those two old folks, they're always giving us trouble."
"Haha, that's quite interesting, your family."
Mu Xiaoyi and Bai Xinyu came in one after the other to check in. Mu Xiaoyi was the first to speak. She took out a few steamed buns and shared them with everyone, saying, "These are from when I bought them. Let's all eat together?"
"Thanks."
Yue Jiuling went to get some steamed buns to eat. She placed the little flower fairy in front of Ye Dongfeng so he could play with her, while she went to get more buns. However, the little flower fairy clearly didn't like Ye Dongfeng and wouldn't let Yue Jiuling leave: "Sister Yue, tell him to go away, he's so annoying~"
"Oh dear, you're so fierce! You little rascal, weren't you just saying 'be good' a moment ago?"
Ye Dongfeng loved to tease this little flower fairy. He would tease her whenever he could find someone in the human world, and he had to make her angry. The angry little flower fairy would wave her little leaves and try to hit him.
"Jiuling, thank you for yesterday."
After swiping her card, Bai Xinyu rummaged through her bag for a while and finally found all sorts of restaurant coupons. She excitedly ran over and said, "Jiuling, thank you so much for yesterday, you and Young Master Long. If it weren't for you, I would definitely have become a demon. So to thank you, I've decided to treat you to a big meal. These are coupons from various restaurants. I've been saving them up for a long time. See what you want to eat, it's on me. Although I'm very poor, I can still afford these."
