In the morning, on the same food street, Ya Zi and Yue Jiuling were buying snacks. They had been wandering around the food street for several days in an attempt to catch the girl who knew the Ghost Gu, but they hadn't seen her since.
Ya Zi sat in a milk tea shop, drinking a cup of milk tea. He looked at the hand-pulled pancake shop across the street, which had been closed for several days, and said, "Hey, Jiu Ling, do you think that girl might not be in J City anymore? We've been waiting in front of her shop for so long, but we haven't seen her come in. We haven't even seen her at the management office. I'm starting to suspect that she might not be coming to rescue her brother and has run away on her own."
Although the shop owner wasn't the murderer, everyone had kept him locked up in order to lure out the real culprit. However, after being locked up for so long, the girl still hadn't shown up. So now, not only Ya Zi suspected that the shop owner had been abandoned by his sister, but the people in the management department also had the same idea.
Yue Jiuling took a bite of an egg tart, chewing with her puffed-out cheeks, and said, "Probably not. I thought the siblings seemed to have a pretty good relationship that day, so how could they give up so easily? Let's wait and see, keep a close eye on them, maybe she'll make a move soon."
Ya Zi watched Yue Jiuling eat egg tarts. He saw that Yue Jiuling's mouth was full of crumbs as she ate, and he thought that the person in front of him was cute no matter how he looked at her. He picked up a tissue next to him and handed it to her, saying, "Here, look at you, your mouth is full of crumbs."
Yue Jiuling was unaware that she had become adorable in Ya Zi's heart. All she knew was that she needed to eat a lot more. She picked up the food she had ordered from the table and ate voraciously, looking like she hadn't eaten for days and was about to starve to death, which surprised Ya Zi greatly.
"Um, Jiuling, I've noticed you seem to be eating a lot more lately. What's wrong with you?"
Ya Zi watched Yue Jiuling eat through a straw. He felt that Yue Jiuling had changed recently. Her appetite had increased a lot. Before, she would eat a portion for one person, but now she was eating a portion for almost three people. This change made Ya Zi wonder if there was something wrong with her health.
Hearing Ya Zi's question, Yue Jiuling knew she had been discovered, so she said somewhat helplessly, "Well, it's like this, it's probably because of the weather lately, which has made me have a particularly good appetite, so that's why I ate so much..."
Actually, Jiu Ling didn't want to eat more this month, but the two divided souls in her body were quite greedy and strongly urged her to eat more. Otherwise, she wouldn't have eaten so much at all.
However, the cravings are only temporary. Once they've tried all the foods they like, Yue Jiuxing and the others won't be so greedy anymore. So, Yue Jiuling has been eating all sorts of foods lately until she's tried everything she likes.
After finishing a box of egg tarts, Yue Jiuling ordered a glass of watermelon juice and then took out her phone to complain to Yue Jiunian about the suffering she had endured that day.
Yue Jiuling: Are you there? I'm so pitiful. If I keep eating like this, I'm sure I'll get fat...
Yue Jiu Nian was studying with Liu Zhan in the garden when she saw the message and replied almost instantly: Hahaha~ You guys didn't eat too much again, did you? Hahaha~
Yue Jiuling expressed her suffering: "Ugh ε-(′?｀; ) I'm having such a hard time. They're so greedy. I'm afraid I'll become a big fat person this month. Even my colleagues say I eat too much."
Yue Jiu Nian: Hahaha~ Keep it up, just bear with it a little longer (?ì _ í?)
Yue Jiuling: ( ；′Д｀) Oh dear~ By the way, what do you think about the house I told you about last time? There are too many people, it's not suitable to live with outsiders, I still want a house.
Yue Jiu Nian: Oh, the house? I forgot to tell you, we already have a house, and it's in J City, not far from your department. It was a gift from Jiang Nian's uncle. Let me tell you, this uncle's family is really rich. They probably have a stake in half of the real estate companies in our province. I'll take you to see the house in a few days.
Actually, Liu Zhan's father had already given Yue Jiu Nian a house the day before yesterday, as a way to thank Yue Jiu Nian for saving Liu Zhan, but Yue Jiu Nian forgot to tell Yue Jiu Ling.
When Yue Jiuling saw that she already had a house, she immediately put aside her unhappiness and said: Really? That's great! When are you free? I want to move in right away!
Yue Jiu Nian: It'll be soon. I have my exam in a few days, so don't rush me.
Yue Jiuling could only suppress her excitement for the time being: OK, then I'll wait a little longer.
Ya Zi didn't know who Yue Jiuling was chatting with, but seeing her suddenly become happy, he asked curiously, "What's wrong? Did something happy happen?"
After finishing her watermelon juice, Yue Jiuling ordered a few pieces of fried chicken and said, "It's alright, but I might have to move soon and stay at my friend's place."
"Moving? What kind of friend is it?"
For some reason, Ya Zi was a little unhappy when he heard Yue Jiuling say that she was moving to live with her friends.
Yue Jiuling picked up the fried chicken and dipped it in ketchup: "Well, actually you've met that friend before, the one we ate together last time."
"Oh, it's her."
After learning that Yue Jiuling's friend was the girl he had met before, Ya Zi was no longer unhappy. He knew that he now had different feelings for Yue Jiuling, but he was not entirely sure what those feelings were, so he nodded and said, "So you're going to live with her from now on?"
