To dispel her gloomy mood, Yanluo went downstairs to cook.
There was also breakfast prepared by Chi Miaomiao and Shang Xinci on the table. Yanluo felt it wasn't enough for everyone, so she put their breakfast in the microwave to heat it up, and then went to the refrigerator to see what she could make.
Su Qing's flight landed at Dali Airport. After collecting her luggage, she picked up her phone to check for messages.
Actually, she was more looking forward to Yanluo's reply. Yanluo's reply made her somewhat happy, but she was still mostly sad inside.
After getting into the pre-arranged car, Su Qing watched the scenery rushing past on the roadside, but her thoughts remained in Guangzhou.
Su Qing was upset because Yan Luo didn't tell her that she also liked Tu Luoxue. If she had told her, she would definitely have agreed to be with her.
Her ideas differed from Yanluo's.
Yan Luo cared too much about Su Qing's feelings; he was afraid that Su Qing would accept him because she loved him.
Su Qing's love is selfless and all-encompassing, and it is extremely rare to have such love.
Yanluo loves everyone very much; he can't bear to part with any of them.
The emotions contained within are extremely contradictory and complex.
Both of them greatly underestimated the love the other had for them.
Su Qing arrived at the inn she had booked. This was not her first time in Dali; she had come several times with her mother-in-law, Zhang Qian.
The guesthouse has a very interesting name: "Waiting for You in the Romantic Scenery of Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moon". It is run by a female owner and is not far from Erhai Lake. When business is good, the rooms are always fully booked.
Yang Sisi, who was looking through the accounts at the front desk, saw Su Qing walk in. She immediately got up, walked out of the front desk, and hugged Su Qing.
"Xiao Qing!!"
Su Qing smiled and hugged Yang Sisi, her voice slightly tired, and said, "Sisi, I'm here."
Yang Sisi hugged Su Qing tightly, and said reproachfully, "Didn't you say you'd arrive this afternoon?"
Su Qing and Yang Sisi separated.
"Don't bother making the trip. It's already troublesome enough that I came by myself."
Yang Sisi pinched Su Qing's cheek, "What nonsense are you talking about, silly girl."
Su Qing and Yang Sisi were quite destined to meet. After graduating from high school, Su Qing was taken on a trip by Zhang Qian, and their first stop was Dali.
Yang Sisi was a mature and intellectual woman. She noticed a subtle melancholy on Su Qing's gentle face and tried to talk to her.
The mother and daughter stayed in Dali for about two weeks. Su Qing's mood improved a lot after chatting and being comforted by Yang Sisi. After that, Su Qing would come to Dali to accompany Yang Sisi whenever she had time.
The reason it's described as "accompanying" is because Yang Sisi was unwilling to leave Dali.
Dali held great significance for her. Su Qing made progress in several conversations, and Yang Sisi was waiting for someone—a man who would never turn back and who already had a family.
It is said that Dali was the place where she first met the man she loved, and many stories happened there afterward. So Yang Sisi spent all her savings to open this guesthouse in Dali.
After the New Year, the start of the school and work season arrives, and Dali also enters the off-season for tourism. There are not many guests in the guesthouse. After putting away her luggage, Su Qing and Yang Sisi left the guesthouse to go out for dinner.
Yang Sisi had a really cool motorcycle. Wearing a helmet, Su Qing sat behind her, listening to the whistling wind and looking at Erhai Lake along the way. The simple yet magnificent scenery eased some of the bad mood in her heart.
Riding their cool motorcycles, they quickly arrived at a restaurant. Every time Su Qing came, Yang Sisi would bring her here. It was a little unspoken understanding between the two of them, using a meal to bridge the gap and eliminate the awkwardness that had arisen from not seeing each other for so long.
In the same spot with the same food, Yang Sisi sat opposite Su Qing, smiling at her. Su Qing's current state was almost the same as when she first met her.
"Xiaoqing, what happened to you?"
Su Qing came not only to comfort herself with "romantic tales," but also to confide in Yang Sisi, because she had been enlightened by Yang Sisi a few years ago.
"I can't hide it from you after all, Sister Sisi."
Bai Ningbing felt she needed to learn to drive. Looking at Chi Miaomiao calmly driving in the driver's seat and Tu Yier playing around with Shang Xinci in the back seat, Bai Ningbing had the idea of getting a driver's license.
Chi Miaomiao couldn't help but sigh, the scene of Su Qing asking her questions last night still lingering in her mind.
Su Qing holds a very important place in Chi Miaomiao's heart.
Su Qing's gentleness and intellect filled the void left by Chi Miaomiao, who had lost her family at a young age and whose relationship with Ye Yao had been ambiguous over the years. This made Chi Miaomiao very afraid of losing Su Qing because she knew the truth and kept it a secret.
Chi Miaomiao and Su Qing have a very good relationship. Su Qing really treats her like an older sister, always thinking of her needs and indulging her.
Su Qing's distressed state last night broke Chi Miaomiao's heart.
Seeing Chi Miaomiao's downcast expression, Bai Ningbing said, "Don't think too much about it, she will definitely come back."
Chi Miaomiao pouted and nodded; she also believed that Su Qing would come back.
After spending the morning playing with Tu Yier, Chi Miaomiao still had to go to the Ghost Hunting Bureau for training with Yan Luo in the afternoon.
When they got home, Yanluo was carrying the last dish out of the kitchen. Seeing that he looked to be in good spirits, everyone felt relieved.
Tu Yier ran to Yan Luo's legs in her slippers, wanting a hug. It seemed that no emotion could escape Tu Yier's eyes. She could see that Yan Luo's relaxed appearance was actually a way of hiding her sadness.
Chi Miaomiao and the other two went upstairs to pack their things, while Yan Luo and Tu Yi'er remained downstairs.
"Uncle, do you miss Auntie?"
Tu Yier didn't know what had happened; she only assumed that Su Qing was away on a long trip and Yan Luo missed her.
Yanluo picked up Tu Yier and smiled.
"Yes, does Yi'er miss her aunt?"
Tu Yier nodded.
Seeing this, Yanluo patted her little head and said gently, "It's okay, I'll be back in a few days. Yi'er, can you go upstairs and call my sisters down for dinner?"
Actually, there was no need to call them; Tu Keke and Man Sui came as soon as they smelled the scent, appearing like ghosts behind Yan Luo and Tu Yi'er.
Tu Keke called out loudly upstairs, "Dinner's ready!" and then skipped and hopped with Man Sui to the kitchen to get the bowls and chopsticks.
Although Su Qing was absent from the lunch table, the atmosphere was still quite good overall. Tu Keke and Man Sui's cheerful and playful demeanor was infectious.
In the afternoon, Yan Luo and Chi Miaomiao arrived at the Guangzhou Ghost Hunting Branch.
Zhang Bichen returned from the capital with news: in order to eliminate future troubles and to learn about the Corpse Demon Organization's combat strength and plans, the higher-ups decided to dispatch the First Squad and other ninth-tier squads to cooperate with the Ninth Squad in striking first and annihilating the Corpse Demon Organization.
Nine Rank 9 squads will arrive in Guangzhou next week. Now that the country has the time, it must properly address the hidden internal problems within the country.
We must ensure that the people of Longxia live a happy and peaceful life.
