The next morning, when Lu Xiaoxiao woke up, she saw that it was already bright outside. She reached out to look at her watch and saw that it was already half past eight. She immediately got out of the quilt.
Then she saw that the place where Zhang Xu slept was empty. It was obvious that Zhang Xu had gotten up long ago. So after putting on her coat, she quickly put away the bedding, opened the door and walked out.
When she left the house, she saw Zhang Xu doing boxing in the living room. She was sweating and had obviously been doing it for a long time, so she asked Zhang Xu, "When did you get up?"
"We'll be up at six o'clock. Go wash up. We'll be leaving soon."
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao said okay, and then she went to the kitchen to wash up.
When she finished washing up and came out of the kitchen, she saw that Zhang Xu had already prepared breakfast for her, so she picked up dinner and started eating.
After she finished her breakfast, she said to Zhang Xu, "We can go now."
"Okay, I'll go find the landlord and check out. You wait for me outside the yard for a while."
After hearing what Zhang Xu said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded, then she went back to the house to get her bag, and waited for Zhang Xu outside the yard.
A few minutes later, Lu Xiaoxiao saw Zhang Xu walking towards her, so she asked him, "Can we go now?"
"Sure, Monkey and the others are waiting for us at the city gate."
"Then let's go find them."
"Okay." After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he took the little girl and walked towards the city gate.
When they arrived at the city gate, they saw the four monkeys standing in front of the jeep, but none of the old ghost and his companions were there.
So Lu Xiaoxiao asked Gray Cat, "Where are the old ghost and the others? Why aren't they with you?"
"They took the train back to Beijing in batches."
"You bought the tickets for them?"
"Well, they said they'll ask you to reimburse them."
Lu Xiaoxiao was speechless after hearing what Gray Cat said, but she still took out three hundred and fifty from her bag and handed it to Gray Cat, and then said to Gray Cat: "Next time if they ask you to ask me for reimbursement again, you don't have to pay attention to them, because they don't lack money at all, so you understand what I mean?"
"I understand. Next time I will definitely make a killing from them."
After hearing what Gray Cat said, Lu Xiaoxiao nodded in satisfaction, and then she said to Zhang Xu: "Let's go."
"Okay." After Zhang Xu finished speaking, he asked everyone to get in the car, and he sat in the driver's seat, started the car and drove out of the city.
Four days later, Lu Xiaoxiao and her group finally returned to Beijing, but since they arrived in the middle of the night, they all stayed at Lu Xiaoxiao's house and planned to return to the base tomorrow morning.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?" After taking a shower, Lu Xiaoxiao saw that the lights downstairs were still on, so she opened the door and looked downstairs. She saw Zhang Xu sitting on the sofa in the living room, so she went downstairs and asked Zhang Xu.
"You're not sleepy yet. If you are tired, go to bed."
"I'm not sleepy either. If you have anything to say, you can talk to me. Maybe I can help you."
"It's okay, just leave me alone for a while."
"Okay, I'll go upstairs and go to bed first. Don't sit in the living room for too long. After all, there are still a lot of things waiting for you to deal with tomorrow."
Zhang Xu nodded after hearing what the little girl said. Then after the little girl went back to her room, he relaxed, leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes.
It wasn't until he heard the grandfather clock strike three that he got up and went upstairs to bed.
