Chapter 205 - Playing with each other

Jiang Luo and Lu Youyi chatted unproductively until midnight before going to bed and woke up late the next morning, not opening their eyes sleepily until the sun was shining on their bottoms.

The two men shuffled through the washing up and walked to the living room only to find that everyone else was already up.

Sai Liaoer is sitting on the sofa in a dumbfounded state, his eyes straightened out as if he were demented. Ye Xun and Zhuo Zhongqiu are looking at him, tsking and sighing, with their mobile phones in their hands, snapping pictures of Sai Liaoer.

Jiang Luo took a slice of bread from the table and put it in his mouth, curiously walked to Sai Liaoer, bent down and shook his hand in front of Sai Liaoer. Sai Liaoer did not respond, his eyes did not move, and Jiang Luo wondered, "What is wrong with Sai Liaoer?

Zhuo Zhongqiu laughed and slapped Ye Xun on the back, "He froze up early in the morning when he found out he was Bai Wuchang, Ye Xun thought he had forgotten that he was Bai Wuchang because he had fallen asleep. He told him what Black had said last night that he would stay in hell after he died.

Ye Xun said helplessly, "I didn't mean to do it, I didn't think he wouldn't know he was Bai Wuchang."

Zhuo Zhongqiu's words struck a nerve with Sai Liaoer, who looked up in resignation, "I don't want to be Bai Wuchang ......"

What kind of person works part-time without pay when they're alive and keeps working for no pay when they're dead?

Jiang Luo gave him a sympathetic look, but couldn't resist gloating and laughing.

Sai Liaoer whimpered, "No wonder I feel so sleepy and tired every day, and I shiver when I hear about work, but it's all because I'm working every night for no pay! I'm still a kid!"

Sai Liaoer had no memory of being Bai Wuchang, but when Ye Xun told him that he was Bai Wuchang, he was stunned but did not doubt it for a moment. Subconsciously he knew that Ye Xun was right and that he was Bai Wuchang.

Sai Liaoer is even more scared.

Even if he was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes every day, why did he have to stay and work after he died?

Sai Liaoer's eyes go black and his mind wanders when he thinks about it.

The little curly-haired boy was sobbing with bitterness. The look on his face was so amusing that Zhuo Zhongqiu could not help laughing. Jiang Luo couldn't help but smile too. He went back to the table to pour a glass of water when he saw Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian coming out of the corridor.

Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian, both with dark, blue circles under their eyes, look exhausted and appear to have been up all night.

Jiang Luo said with novelty, "You guys didn't sleep well last night?"

Ge Zhu coughed, he had a small cold, his face was slightly pale and he said weakly, "I had a nightmare last night and couldn't sleep afterwards, Wen Ren stayed with me all night."

Jiang Luo asked with concern, "What nightmare? Do you want me to do some calculations for you?"

"No, it's just a dream."

Ge Zhu hastily refused. He sat down at the table and ate wanly, sighing heavily after two bites, looking as if he could not eat.

Jiang Luo worriedly went to sit beside him and patted Ge Zhu's shoulder, "What's wrong?"

Ge Zhu smiled reluctantly at Jiang Luo and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.

Wen Renlian picks up a cup of chai tea and stands up, walking unnoticed behind Jiang Luo and gently patting him, gesturing for him to follow him.

Jiang Luo didn't rush off, but poured Ge Zhu a cup of hot water to wash down his cold before following Wen Renlian away from the table.

Ge Zhu looked at the cold punch with a touched face and a quick flash of weakness in his eyes as he picked up the cup and drank the medicine down in one go, a bitter taste flooding his mouth.

LOL.

On one side is family, friends and the whole future, and on the other is the bond of brotherhood. Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian were up all night worrying. If Chi You had threatened them with danger to themselves, the two would never have compromised, but to threaten someone close to them ...... was a complete poke in the eye.

Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian have their own principles and morals, and they may hold onto useless goodness, but goodness is never something that should be abandoned. They cannot stand by and watch the future turn into what Chi You dreamed of, watching countless people being tormented by ghosts and monsters.

They are successfully threatened by Chi You, but don't want to count their best buddies out either. The two of them are in a dilemma and their hair is falling out, but Wen Renlian says Jiang Luo doesn't necessarily have no feelings for Chi You. They come up with a plan to test Jiang Luo today to see if he still likes Chi You.

If they like it, they can breathe a huge sigh of relief and feel good about setting Jiang Luo and Chi You up. If they don't like it ...... they will have to work hard to see if they can get Jiang Luo to fall in love with Chi You again.

Sad.

Ge Zhu was on the verge of tears when he thought of Jiang Luo as a good brother and the evil spirit as a vicious character.

He was just afraid of pushing Jiang Luo into the fire.

On the balcony, Wen Renlian and Jiang Luo are talking about Ge Zhu's "nightmare".

Wen Renlian's acting skills are so perfect that no one can tell if he wants to act. His brow furrowed in worry as he whispered to Jiang Luo, "He woke up at two o'clock last night from a nightmare because it was so real that Ge Zhu dared not sleep after he woke up.

Jiang Luo was curious, "What kind of dream?"

Wen Renlian sighed and said partly vaguely, "There was a scene in the dream where I dreamt that you and Chi You got married."

Jiang Luo was stunned and then asked, pretending not to care, "I'm married to Chi You?"

"It was probably because we talked about your relationship with Chi You in the car yesterday that he dreamt about you two in his dream," Wen Renlian said, raising his hand to take a sip of his chai tea and sounding helpless about Ge Zhu's dream. After he woke up, he told me that the dream was as if it was real. You know how people dream, sometimes they have precognitive dreams. Occasionally a dream fragment will somehow happen in reality, and when it does, there will be a feeling of dj vu. The thing about dreams is that they're inherently metaphysical, and Ge Zhu woke up afraid that he'd had a precognitive dream too."

Wen Renlian Yu Guang keeps a close eye on Jiang Luo.

Jiang Luo seems casual, but his ears are already perked up and there is no look of rejection on his face.

Wen Renlian was relieved, and then he was happy.

Jiang Luo, who wanted to know what happened, couldn't resist urging, "What happened? You stayed up all night because of a dream?"

"Isn't it because you want to break up with Chi You?" Wen Renlian laughed bitterly twice, " Ge Zhu thought that you obviously didn't like Chi You in reality and he still dreamed that you were with Chi You, so he didn't dare to dream any further. Otherwise, if he really had a precognitive dream and got you and Chi You together, wouldn't that be a disservice to you?"

As he speaks, he unobtrusively continues to gauge Jiang Luo's expression.

Jiang Luo's heart moved, thinking that this was a good opportunity to make peace with the situation, and he smiled lightly to set the stage for his change of attitude, "What's that? It's none of his business whether the dream is real or not, even if it is. Chi You and I have always had a rocky road, always splitting up and splitting up again. Whatever happens, it's possible. Even if I do get married to Chi You afterwards, like in his dream, I don't blame him."

A twinkle in Wen Renlian's eye.

Hearing Jiang Luo's words, Wen Renlian would bet his head that Jiang Luo definitely still has feelings for Chi You.

When I spoke to Jiang Luo earlier, he said categorically that he wanted to break up with Chi You. Since Wen Renlian could only hear Jiang Luo's voice and could not see his expression, he really thought that Jiang Luo had no more feelings for Chi You.

With this subconscious preconception, Wen Renlian did not pay attention to Jiang Luo's expressions in the car yesterday and did not see anything wrong.

But now it became clear that Wen Renlian, with his intelligence and sensitivity, had easily spotted the change in Jiang Luo's attitude towards Chi You.

Coupled with Chi You's words last night about "getting him to admit willingly that he likes me", Wen Renlian thought he had guessed the truth when he thought about it.

Jiang Luo is in love with Chi You, but he doesn't know it yet, so he wants to break up with Chi You?

The more I thought about it, the more right I felt, Wen Renlian said tentatively, "Your marriage to him was only part of Ge Zhu's dream, the rest of the dream I haven't finished with you yet ...... Ge Zhu didn't just dream of you and Chi You being together, she also dreamed of you and Chi You breaking up. Chi You messed up the whole world after breaking up with you."

Jiang Luo dawned on him, "That's the real reason he's too scared to sleep, isn't it?"

Wen Renlian sighs, "Right."

Jiang Luo's expression became deliberately grave as he stroked his chin, pondered for a long time, and said seriously, "It's not impossible. Chi You likes me too much, and if I were to leave him, he might actually do something like this to take it out on me."

Wen Renlian was startled, "What then?"

"I'm not going to break up with him," Jiang Luo said majestically, "for your sake, for the sake of everyone else, and in a way, it's good that Chi You and I are wrecking each other."

Wen Renlian said with emotion, " Jiang Luo ......"

Jiang Luo smiled slightly and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, it's all I have to do."

The two men chatted for a few more moments and returned to the living room together. Wen Renlian exchanged glances with Ge Zhu between the gaps and gave a slight nod.

This means that Jiang Luo and Chi You can be matched up.

Ge Zhu was so pleased that the corners of his mouth were grinning from ear to ear.

As soon as they knew Jiang Luo had feelings for Chi You, they were free to go for it! After that, all Jiang Luo had to do was to find out that he liked Chi You within 15 days, and to confess his feelings to Chi You!

If only this could be done, the catastrophe of the metaphysical world would never come again. With this in mind, Ge Zhu was so full of energy that he could not wait for Jiang Luo to understand what he wanted to do.

But unbeknownst to the others, Ge Zhu and Wen Renlian's fifteen-day deadline put the goal of obtaining Teng Bi's birth date and date of death at the top of their list. Once they were all together, Lu Youyi urged Ge Zhu to call Ge Wuchen to ask for information about Teng Bi.

After hearing that Ge Zhu needed information about Teng Bi and wanted to revive him, Ge Wuchen was silent for a while and said indifferently, "I know, I will try to find out his birth date and time of death. But I may be able to find the birth date and time of death, but the time of Teng Bi's death is much more difficult. I am afraid no one else knows except the master, because Teng Bi was brought back by the master."

No one in the room dared to ask Chi You, Lu Youyi looked at Jiang Luo expectantly, who coughed his throat and waved towards Ge Zhu.

Ge Zhu honestly handed him the phone.

Jiang Luo put the phone to his ear, " Ge Wuchen, give the phone to Chi You."

Ge Wuchen said, "Master Jiang, the master is not with me."

Jiang Luo was stunned, then his eyes darkened, "Then where did he go?"

"You don't know?" Ge Wuchen seemed to ask casually and rhetorically, but the words sounded like a secret mockery to Jiang Luo's ears, meaningful, "The master went alone to find a place with a strong ghostly aura, and was not with us. Every time after devouring a ghost, the master would disappear for a period of time, and no one knows where he has gone during this time. Master Jiang, please forgive me for not knowing the master's current whereabouts either."

Jiang Luo tugged up a smile and said gently, "It's okay."

The next second, he hung up and threw the phone at Ge Zhu.

Ge Zhu hastily caught it and shuddered at Jiang Luo's smile. He changed the subject stiffly and said, "Let's wait for Ge Wuchen's news for a few days. There is no need to hurry."

He looked at Lu Youyi and said in one word: "Now that there is hope, let's take it one step at a time, not in a hurry."

Lu Youyi nodded dutifully, "I know."

He clutched the large sword Teng Bi had given him in his arms and said earnestly, "It is not only Teng Bi's matter that requires us to be anxious, but we cannot slacken off in the matter of the Fatal Man either. The Fates have indirectly killed Teng Bi, and I will avenge Teng Bi's death."

In just a few days, Lu Youyi seems to have grown up a few years, and has become much more understanding. This change is neither good nor bad, but if Teng Bi were to see it, he would probably say "sorry" with a guilty conscience.

Jiang Luo pulled his thoughts back from Chi You, he sneered and suddenly remembered something, " Wen Ren, I asked you to investigate Ji Yaozi's origins earlier, have you come up with any results?"

Wen Renlian nodded, got up and took a file out of his bag and handed it to him, "So much has happened in the past month that I had forgotten about this. This is everything I've found out about Ji Yaozi. Also, Ji Yaozi went back to the funeral shop about a week ago."
