What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

Chapter 14 It's not good here.

It seems I've fallen into a dream.

With a sigh, Jiu Ge punched An Chen away, then pushed open the coffee shop door and walked out.

The view outside the door has transformed into an amusement park.

Ferris wheel, carousel, log flume, drop tower, haunted house.

The signs on the side were filled with all sorts of entertainment options.

Laughter and cheers filled the air, and countless smiling men and women were seen from all directions.

"..."

Looking at the old lady with her arm around the middle-aged man's waist, the old man holding a young girl, and a circle of alien creatures, Jiuge felt a little ashamed.

In the distance, a man who looked exactly like An Chen—wearing a suit, holding a bouquet of flowers, and looking at her with a doting expression—ran towards her.

This is so jarring...

Seemingly unable to bear it any longer, Jiuge calmed herself down, waved her hand, and punched the ground so hard it shattered.

wake up.

Then, she stood up, looked at the terrified woman in front of her, and said coldly, "What exactly do you want?"

……

An Chen withdrew the aura he had previously released and walked towards the abandoned building in the distance.

Just as they were about to enter the abandoned building, Jiuge came out carrying a spirit that looked like an auntie.

The black mist on the spirit has disappeared, indicating that the purification was successful.

"So fast?" An Chen was somewhat surprised.

He thought that Jiuge wouldn't come out until at least he went in.

Although he already had a general idea of ​​how powerful Jiuge's purification ability was, An Chen was still genuinely surprised by its efficiency.

He couldn't help but doubt Jiu Ge's original intention in asking him to cooperate.

"..." Jiu Ge glanced at An Chen, her expression stiffening slightly as she recalled the scene in her dream.

"Let's go back. That passerby is fine now, and she'll probably go home on her own soon. I've also set up a hidden barrier here, so ordinary people can't get in."

As if he hadn't noticed Jiu Ge's strange expression, An Chen made this suggestion.

This spirit had no phantom aura about it. He noticed it as soon as he saw Mao Mao's mother, and staying here any longer would be a waste of time.

If he gets back early, he can make a few more transactions in the middle of the night and might even get some unexpected gains.

“It…” Jiuge glanced at the aunt’s spirit with a look of disgust, then pressed her temples with her free hand, as if she had a headache.

After purifying the aunt, she was almost sent away on the spot by the other party's bizarre behavior.

Is there something wrong with it?

An Chen glanced at the spirit aunt but didn't sense anything unusual.

“It’s not good here.” Jiuge pointed to her head, looking somewhat troubled.

Upon hearing this, An Chen recalled the romantic nightmare described by Jiu Ge.

"...Let it go and harm other spirits," he said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Jiuge's mouth twitched slightly.

After thinking for a moment, she let go of his hand, her face ashen.

After all, holding on to it indefinitely isn't a solution, so we can only make do with the other spirits...

"Hey"

As soon as she was put down, the aunt's spirit screamed and jumped up on the spot.

Jiuge turned her face away, seemingly unwilling to continue watching the scene before her.

"Want to date me?" The aunt flew quickly toward An Chen and asked him the question right in his face.

"roll."

An Chen punched his aunt on the head without any expression.

"I've never been in a proper relationship."

The aunt, who had been punched by An Chen, fell to the ground and muttered to herself while holding her head like a child.

"It seems that after it turned into an evil spirit, it pulled the unconscious person into its own consciousness and fell in love with it..." Jiuge's expression was somewhat unpleasant.

"The association didn't tell me that this spirit had mental problems before it died," she explained softly.

No wonder the association required it to be destroyed when the mission was issued; they probably wanted to prevent the mentally unstable spirit from turning into an evil spirit and causing some terrible trouble.

"..."

"Whoosh."

Just as the two fell silent, a leaf as sharp as a blade slashed straight at the aunt's spirit.

Jiuge moved swiftly, grabbing the aunt's arm and dodging to the side.

A leaf fell to the ground and made a small hole.

Startled, the aunt quickly floated into the abandoned building.

"Why are you protecting this spirit?" a sudden female voice asked.

A man and a woman appeared in front of Jiuge and Anchen.

These two must be the other two association members from the pseudo-capital that Jiuge mentioned before.

An Chen thought to himself and took a few steps back, not wanting to get involved.

“It’s no longer an evil spirit.” Jiuge exuded a stern aura as she coldly stared at the chestnut-haired, bespectacled woman in front of her.

“Then it’s a spirit with mental problems, and it might turn into an evil spirit again in the future.” The short-haired girl poked at her glasses and met Jiu Ge’s gaze without fear.

She had long disliked Jiu Ge's aloof personality. She even refused tasks specially assigned to her by the association, claiming they didn't conform to her principles. Did she really think she was so great?

"With my purification power, you don't need to worry. Besides, before it became an evil spirit, it didn't affect any living people. The mission issued by the association should have mentioned that, right?" Jiuge sneered, her voice even colder than before.

"you!"

Not knowing how to refute, Su Zhi was somewhat exasperated.

She stomped her foot and looked at the boy next to her.

"Alright, alright, Su Zhi, don't get so excited." A man with a small ponytail and glasses gently patted Su Zhi's shoulder.

Su Zhi gets extremely excited whenever she sees Jiu Ge, so he always takes her to different places to do missions, trying to avoid the two of them running into each other.

Unfortunately, Su Zhi's reaction was too strong this time, and he couldn't stop her, so he had no choice but to chase after her.

"Li Zhi, don't speak up for her. This mission to exterminate the evil spirits was originally ours, but she snatched it away in the end." Su Zhi looked at Li Zhi, her expression very displeased.

The reward for this mission included a beautiful magical artifact that she had been looking forward to for a long time and that she really liked.

She and Jiuge didn't get along to begin with, and they would basically clash every time they met. Now that what she deserved had been taken away, she was even more unhappy.

"If you want a magical artifact, I can give it to you." With a sigh, Jiuge waved her hand, releasing a barrier to surround the abandoned building.

She disdained such things; in Jiuge's mind, one can only rely on oneself.

"Who cares about that junk?" Su Zhi put her hands on her hips, her expression suddenly turning disdainful.

Just as she was about to say something more, her pupils suddenly dilated, and her gaze fell on An Chen, who was watching from the side.

"Oh, I heard you found a partner. So it's him."

Hearing Su Zhi's remarks, which sounded like those of a young, vicious female supporting character, An Chen felt a physical headache.

He just wants to be treated like a nobody and doesn't want to get involved in any disputes.

Chapter 15 Your colleague's spiritual power isn't very good.

"I was quite surprised when I heard that Jiuge found a partner." Li Zhi stared wide-eyed at An Chen with curiosity.

Everyone in the association knew about Jiu Ge's aloof personality, and countless people tried to get close to her, but none succeeded. He had also tried to befriend Jiu Ge before, but failed easily.

When the association held an online meeting to inform everyone that Jiuge had a partner, no one in the room believed it.

"This is none of your business."

Jiuge stopped and gestured to Anchen to follow.

"I thought you were the type who would never have any contact with men in your life," Su Zhi said, taking a few steps forward and continuing to mock.

Li Zhi tugged at Su Zhi, seemingly not wanting her to continue.

"Jiuge's partner, let me tell you. Don't be fooled by her good looks; she has a very strange personality."

Su Zhi continued to spout childish, villainous remarks, but An Chen and Jiu Ge did not turn around.

"you!"

She stomped her foot, took out a few leaves from her pocket, covered them with spiritual energy, and threw them at An Chen.

An Chen and Jiu Ge turned around at the same time.

Just as Jiuge reached out to smash Li Ye, the leaf collapsed to the ground, its spiritual energy dissipating, when it was only a meter away from An Chen.

“Your colleague’s spiritual power isn’t very strong,” An Chen said calmly, glancing back at the ground.

"..."

"..."

"..."

All three of them were stunned.

Leaving Su and Li standing there dumbfounded, An Chen and Jiu Ge turned and walked away.
