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

She had never experienced the hardships of studying, but she had certainly tasted the bitterness of love.

People often say that the quality of a thing depends entirely on one's state of mind. If a person has a bad attitude, even a good thing cannot be sustained. As long as one views a bad thing with a good attitude, even a bad thing can turn into a good thing.

Jiuge knew that the "get lost" wasn't directed at her personally, but because the message was sent to her, she couldn't truly ignore it.

Gritting her teeth, she deleted all the chat history on the new account. After searching for tutorials, she simply cancelled the entire account.

This is the consequence of trusting strangers too much. Jiuge has decided that she will never easily open the Pseudo-Capital Tree Hole APP again.

Just as she was squatting on the ground, her eyes vacant, frantically kneading the milk candy-shaped hair ornament like An Chen usually did, An Chen, who had just finished raking in a huge pile of spirit coins from Zhang Zhidong, pushed open the door and came in.

Zhang Zhidong is indeed remarkable. He is well-liked in both the spirit world and the world of the living. Even the spirits who are afraid of the heat emanating from him regard him as their guardian deity.

They believe that as long as they carry the golden light and warmth to a spiritual clinic in the spirit world to worship, or stay there a little longer, they will have a better life in their next life.

In terms of superstition, it's the same for both spirits in the underworld and people in the living world.

An Chen had a handful of eerie spirit coins in his pocket. After glancing at Jiu Ge, who seemed off, he went back to his room and found a lighter.

He went outside, found a secluded spot to burn the offerings for himself, waved goodbye, and returned to his apartment.

"There is an evil spirit."

Upon re-entering the room, the moment his feet touched the ground, he uttered a terrifying-sounding statement with a blank expression.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Jiuge stood up.

"where?"

Jiuge's expression was alert, and her eyes regained their luster.

Without the slightest hesitation, she turned and walked toward the cabinet filled with crystals.

"Just kidding." An Chen shrugged and plopped down on the sofa.

Upon hearing this, Jiuge was stunned.

She turned and glared angrily at An Chen, her cheeks puffing out in a huff.

The dog is still An Chen, focused on strange and vulgar tastes.

And she even had the nerve to tell her to get lost, wasn't she afraid of getting a concussion from punching herself in the head...

Satisfied with his glance at Jiu Ge's reaction, An Chen slowly began, "I think..."

"I want to talk to you."

Jiuge spoke first.

"?" This time, it was An Chen who was stunned.

I feel like I've seen this scene before.

"Do you want to go on a date with me now?" Jiuge glanced out the window.

It's a cloudy day today, and the sun isn't very strong.

Just the two of us.

As she spoke, Jiuge crossed her arms, gave a cold snort, flicked her hair, and her ears turned slightly red.

An Chen must take responsibility for what happened to her.

"A date?" An Chen wondered if he had misheard.

"Anyway, you took advantage of me first and even said I was your wife, so it's not too much to ask you to go on a date with me, right?"

"Not excessive..."

An Chen thought for a moment and then answered.

"Don't bring those two spirits at the door, and drive away any other spirits as well."

"It's not impossible."

"So it's a date then?" Upon hearing An Chen's words, Jiu Ge couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Well, I noticed you weren't quite right, so I was wondering if you wanted to go out for a walk or something." An Chen shrugged, looking somewhat helpless.

"Since you've invited me, I'm willing to take pity on you and keep you company."

With another cold snort, Jiuge shrugged, genuinely feigning reluctance.

"..."

An Chen fell silent.

The temperature outside was not as high as usual, and the air was cool and refreshing.

Apart from the location where Zhang Zhidong and Mao Maotou were, the rest of the place was suitable for human survival in the summer.

To dress up nicely for their first official date, Jiuge went back to her room to change into a white lace short-sleeved top, paired with a white belt and light-colored denim shorts, and wore a beige beret.

Since discovering that Naitang was shedding a lot of fur, she has rarely worn black clothes.

Even if you wear them, you still have to use a lint roller to scrape them up and down, left and right, for a very long time.

"Is it pretty?" Jiu Ge asked An Chen shyly as she stepped out of the room.

"You're a clothes hanger; you're beautiful, tall, slim, and fair-skinned, so you look good in anything."

Shrugging, An Chen reached out and opened the door.

“If you feel that anything is not in the right combination, I can go and change it.” Jiu Ge pinched the brim of her hat and tilted her head to look at An Chen.

"I wouldn't mind if you wore a burlap sack and came out with me."

An Chen almost burst out laughing when he imagined Jiu Ge wearing a burlap sack.

"Can I wear a burlap sack?" Jiuge blinked, seemingly genuinely considering whether or not to change into a burlap sack before going out.

She had no idea what An Chen's aesthetic sense was like.

They say everyone has their own interpretation of Hamlet, so maybe An Chen, with his peculiar taste, really does like dressing up in a burlap sack.

"..."

An Chen was speechless again.

I must remind Jiuge in the future not to trust others easily.

Otherwise, she'll be the one counting the money for the seller after she's sold out.

……

When they arrived at the community entrance, Zhang Zhidong, who was sitting some distance away, greeted An Chen and Jiu Ge from afar.

After glancing coldly at the spirits who had gathered in a circle at a distance, without even saying hello, Jiuge tugged at An Chen's sleeve and walked away with him expressionlessly.

"Wouldn't people in the community or passersby be alarmed if they noticed that the temperature in that area was always off?"

When she looked up to ask the question, Jiu Ge still clung tightly to An Chen's clothes.

"Zhang knows he might be the first to help report it, since his own family is the most abnormal one."

An Chen glanced at the clothes that were almost torn out of shape, then at Jiu Ge, and frantically hinted to Jiu Ge to let go, so he slowed down.

Didn't I emphasize that most spirits wouldn't drift over if I followed her? Why is she still so afraid?

"Will anyone in higher positions care?"

As if she hadn't seen An Chen's actions or his expression, as if nothing had happened and she knew nothing, Jiu Ge didn't let go.

Chapter 49 The Spirit Behind the Fortune Telling Stall

"They probably won't care," An Chen sighed.

For the sake of the clothes' safety, he decided to keep pace with Jiuge.

The previous incident involving Hua Zi is a case in point.

The popular childhood trauma program "Out of Science" provides many typical examples.

There was never a single leaf on the roof of the ancient temple. After a comprehensive analysis, it was finally concluded that the leaves had been blown away by the wind.

Things the elderly man touched and his cotton-padded clothes spontaneously combusted. After extensive research, it was finally concluded that his granddaughter started the fire.

The reason why men aren't afraid of electricity is because their hands are calloused; the water monster is actually an airship; white radishes turn into carrots because the wrong seeds were planted; the reason why old people don't drink water year-round is because they drink a large bowl of soup before meals; the blue ice you lick is actually urine that has been chemically treated and dropped from airplanes...

If someone were to investigate this area of ​​the community, they would likely conclude that the problem stemmed from factors such as lighting or terrain.

Sometimes An Chen would wonder if the people who produced the show were actually enthusiasts of mysterious phenomena.

The program explores the mysteries of the world, but when it encounters things that are too outrageous to explain, it uses strange explanations to gloss over them. As a result, some of these so-called scientific explanations become more and more terrifying the more you think about them.

"What are you thinking?"

Seeing An Chen deep in thought, Jiu Ge couldn't help but feel curious.

The few spirits scattered along the roadside had indeed retreated to the edge, and none of them approached her.

"I'm wondering why I easily become the center of attention when I stand next to you..."

Coming to his senses, An Chen glanced around and noticed that everyone's eyes were on him.

The spirits have stopped coming, but the number of living people is increasing.

Perhaps because everyone here is a free spirit, it wasn't so obvious when we were at the breakfast shop.

"You mean you're not going to take me out anymore?"

Jiu Ge was somewhat shocked, and the hand gripping An Chen's clothes tightened even more.

First she was incredulous, then she suddenly realized, and finally her expression turned pitiful as she looked at An Chen.

Jiuge herself couldn't help the fact that she easily attracted attention...

"Don't look at me like that..."

An Chen suddenly felt a lot of pressure.

It was as if he had bullied Jiuge.

The men and women watching the two of them also had strange expressions.

"I won't refuse to go out with you over something so trivial."
