An Chen understood and took the phone.

Immediately afterwards, his expression became blank.

Time: 3:23 am.

Mr. Huang: I'm Jingjing. /playful

Mr. Huang: Let me show you around for the next few days.

Mr. Huang: Come to think of it, I don't have An Chen's contact information yet.

Old Huang: Sister Jiuge, could you please give me An Chen's business card? /Looking forward to it

Mr. Huang: After all, he's my future boyfriend.

Old Huang: It's a little embarrassing to admit, but I think I fell in love with An Chen at first sight. /shy

Old Huang: Hehe, you've noticed I'm interested in An Chen, haven't you? And from yesterday's chat, you can tell An Chen has feelings for me too. /shy

Old Huang: Sister, you must support me!

Old Huang: Tomorrow morning, I'll bring a driver to pick you up. This time we're going to a haunted house. I'm definitely going to use the suspension bridge effect to get An Chen this time. /Excited/Striving/Excited

Huang Lao: Sister Jiuge, please remember to reply to me in time.

Old Huang: I will also bring a handsome and outstanding guy to Sister Jiuge. Please look forward to it, Sister.

Huang Lao: ...

An Chen turned off his phone screen before finishing reading the entire content.

He sighed and handed the phone back to Jiu Ge, who was staring at him pitifully.

"I understand, let's run away then." An Chen was suddenly no longer surprised by Jiu Ge's reaction.

"However, I'll still explain: I'm not interested in her." He gave a helpless, bitter smile.

Jiuge was so frightened by these messages early in the morning that she wanted to run away with herself.

"Really?" Jiuge still looked pitiful.

“Really, I won’t like anyone else.” An Chen shrugged.

“Although I don’t think you’re that kind of person, the internet says that men are all creatures who think with their lower bodies and are all womanizers.” Jiuge rubbed against An Chen’s chest again.

Around 3 a.m., she was awakened by a series of messages.

As soon as I turned on my phone, I was struck by lightning at the opening ceremony.

"And Jingjing said you must have feelings for her..." Jiuge's tone turned sour.

She searched her browser for a lot of news about boyfriends, women who covet boyfriends, and similar things.

The search results displayed on the browser when searching for "even minor illnesses can be fatal" made Jiuge's heart pound.

When I came to my senses, it was already almost five o'clock.

“I…” An Chen choked.

"I'm not a creature that thinks with my lower body." He rubbed his temples.

Browsers are a menace.

What has Jiuge been watching online all this time?

"Then what do you use to think?" Jiuge looked up from An Chen's arms.

An Chen gently pinched Jiu Ge's nose, thought for a moment, and said, "Maybe it's still the lower half?"

"..." Jiuge let go of An Chen's clothes and drifted backward at the speed of light with red eyes.

“I was just kidding… I use my brain to think…” An Chen said seriously.

Chapter 119 Pioneering

After An Chen ran away with Jiu Ge, he came up with a lame and outrageous but irresistible excuse and used Jiu Ge's phone to send a message to Jing Jing to get rid of her.

The reason why Old Huang kept An Chen and Jiu Ge behind this time was probably just to test them, and if the test was successful, he would act as a pimp.

Unfortunately, his youngest daughter, Jingjing, fell in love with An Chen right away, and the well-planned scheme ultimately turned into Jingjing's personal "blind date".

For Jiuge and Anchen, this situation definitely needs to be prevented.

On her way home, Jiuge, with a serious expression and acting mysteriously, went to the bank to transfer some money.

When she left the bank, she looked relieved and at ease.

"Who did you transfer money to?" An Chen couldn't help but chuckle as he watched Jiu Ge try out the ATM repeatedly, peeking around curiously.

"It's a secret." Jiuge crossed her arms and turned her head away, her face full of arrogance.

"Is it for Su Zhi?" An Chen tilted his head, mimicking Jiu Ge.

"How did you know?" Jiuge asked warily.

Did An Chen install some kind of camera on her?

"...I still vividly remember how you gently moved the front side mirror of their rented car, and it broke on the spot." An Chen recalled as he spoke.

The memory is still very clear.

Given Jiuge's personality, she certainly wouldn't break other people's things and think it's perfectly normal.

"..." Jiuge didn't refute.

She lowered her head, lost in thought.

"Alright, let's take a taxi." An Chen grasped Jiu Ge's hand and squeezed it gently.

With a wave of his right hand, a passing taxi smoothly stopped in front of them.

When they returned to the community, Zhang Zhidong and Mao Maotou seemed to still be busy.

There are few living people in the neighborhood, but a lot of spirits.

Perhaps it was because countless wandering spirits gave Zhang Zhidong and Mao Maotou a free, super-strong "recommendation spot" on the day of the Ghost Festival that the Spirit World Clinic was still bustling with customers the day after the Ghost Festival.

Despite the discomfort caused by the high fever, a group of spirits, large and small, gathered around Zhang Zhidong, just like the people who had lined up tirelessly under the scorching sun at the Red Mandarin Duck Temple.

Selectively ignoring the spirits around her, Jiuge stared wide-eyed at the mountain of spirit coins piled up next to the Spirit Realm Mental Clinic.

"So many spirit coins! Zhang Zhidong is really amazing." She tugged hard at An Chen's sleeve, urging him to look over.

"That's really impressive."

Although that's what he said, An Chen didn't really feel anything, since most of these spirit coins would end up going to him anyway.

"But what I find even more impressive is that recently, various events seem to have some connection to Zhang Zhidong."

As he spoke, he squinted and glanced at Zhang Zhidong a few more times.

“Indeed, it’s very suspicious.” Jiuge nodded, agreeing with this statement.

That seems to make sense.

"But the most urgent matter is my missing colleagues," she emphasized with a serious expression.

"Yes, I know." An Chen nodded.

Because they were worried about missing the milk candy, An Chen and Jiu Ge did not linger at the entrance of the community.

After lingering for only a short while, the two held hands again and walked towards the apartment.

Without Huang Lao, Jingjing, Zhang Zhidong, and Mao Maotou, and with no extra spirits bothering her, Jiuge was very content.

Holding An Chen's hand, she couldn't help but hum a nursery rhyme softly.

"A flat head, tiny ears, nimble hands and feet, and it runs like a spinning top."

An Chen glanced at Jiu Ge, who looked relaxed, and his expression showed a hint of surprise.

If his memory serves him right, this song is from "Little Ear TuTu".

I never expected that Jiuge had seen this.

As they approached the apartment, a disheveled spirit suddenly charged straight at Jiuge.

"Aww!!!" Caught off guard, Jiuge suddenly threw herself into An Chen's arms.

An Chen instinctively hugged Jiu Ge.

"Waaaaaah... I'm so sorry, I scared you all, I'm so sorry, I scared your boyfriend, I'm so sorry, I didn't know you had a boyfriend, I was just too excited when I saw you, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!!!!" The disheveled spirit cried while revealing its big, watery eyes.

An Chen fell silent.

He had seen countless spirits of all kinds, strange and wonderful, with different quirks and personalities, but this was the first time he had ever seen one like this.

Patting Jiu Ge's trembling body to comfort her, An Chen began to consider whether to directly drive the spirit away or hand it over to Zhang Zhidong.

"Hua Ji?" Jiu Ge recognized Hua Ji's voice.

Taking the opportunity, she nuzzled against An Chen's chest again, then cautiously turned her head.

"I'm so sorry, it's Huaji!!!!" Huaji's voice grew louder and louder.

"Didn't you recover?" Jiuge asked in shock.

That day, after she played that magical song "I'm Really Not Bad" for Huaji with the mindset of a hero going to his death, Huaji seemed to be purified and her heart was as still as water.

Releasing An Chen, Jiu Ge turned her head and explained seriously, "This is the spirit that Zhang Zhidong brought to me that day to train my courage. It is very timid, extremely insecure, and has serious psychological problems."

“I see it now.” An Chen suddenly felt admiration for Zhang Zhidong.

"I'm sorry!!!!!!!!! I'm a coward!!! I have low self-esteem!! I have problems everywhere!!! I don't deserve to be a spirit!!!!" Hua Ji screamed.

An Chen calmly covered Jiu Ge's ears.

……

When she arrived at her doorstep, Jiuge used her free hand to brush her hair back.

Then she sighed and said, "I thought she had overcome her psychological barrier."

After trying every possible way to appease Hua Ji, so much time has unknowingly been wasted.

“‘It’s easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one’s nature’—this saying applies to all living things. You’re already amazing.” An Chen patted Jiu Ge’s head.
