Chapter 323 I’m Really Used to This
"I foolishly thought you were suppressing your anger! Turns out you were just playing a trick on me!" Jiangnan said as he picked up a book and wanted to hit Cui Ji, but after thinking about it, he put it down.
"Why don't you throw it away?"
"You're not even angry, why should I throw it?"
"Getting angry won't solve the problem. It's already happened, so it's better to stay calm and deal with it calmly." Cui Ji looked at the mess, shook his head helplessly, and said, "I'll be busy from now on."
"I'll help you. No! I'll take responsibility for my actions."
"Yeah, I believe it."
In the following days, Jiangnan helped sincerely.
Help him serve tea and water, organize the materials on the bookshelf, massage his shoulders from time to time, and chat with him.
Although he is still naughty occasionally, fortunately he doesn't get into big trouble.
With Jiangnan's company, Cui Ji was not as bored as before and gradually got used to the days with Jiangnan around.
But how could the judge in charge of the Book of Life and Death not know Jiangnan's identity? He had his own selfish motives and always took Jiangnan to eat food from the underworld. As long as the quantity was large, he might be able to keep her.
Cui Ji would often involuntarily stare at Jiangnan who was sleeping beside him, and occasionally stroke her cheek.
As for why he did this, he didn't understand.
I just know... I'm used to it.
Three years passed quickly in this simple companionship.
Jiangnan held a stack of books in his arms, placed them on the table, and said, "I have sorted out the information you will need next and put it here."
"You've worked hard." Cui Ji said, picked up a fruit and handed it to Jiangnan, and continued: "Eat some fruit and take a rest."
Jiangnan replied, "Okay!" He snatched Cui Ji's chair and sat on it to eat fruit.
Cui Ji was already used to this, so he smiled and asked, "Is it sweet?"
"Ah."
"Eat more, don't be polite to me."
"I definitely won't be polite!"
"That's the truth."
"Of course!"
The smile on Cui Ji's face disappeared. He picked up the pen in his hand and looked around vigilantly.
Jiangnan also became nervous and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Space is distorting. Something is coming."
"what?"
"not sure."
"That…"
"Here they come!" Cui Ji subconsciously went to protect Jiangnan who was sitting there.
After seeing who was coming, Cui Ji felt a pang of pain in his chest. He knew that Jiangnan was about to leave.
Luming hopped his hooves, opened his arms and said, "Nannan! Do you miss your master? My dear baby, come and let your master hug you!"
Jiangnan smiled awkwardly at Cui Ji and explained, "Sorry, my master has always been like this."
"It's okay, I'm quite energetic."
Jiangnan noticed that Cui Ji was in a bad mood and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
"No, you should go back now, right?"
"Ah."
Cui Ji smiled falsely and said something against his will: "Congratulations."
"What's there to congratulate about?"
"nothing."
Lu Ming patted the deer's back and said to Jiangnan, "Come on up, it's time for us to go home."
"I'm coming!"
Jiangnan got on the back of the deer and said goodbye to Cui Ji: "I'm going home first! I will definitely come to bother you when I have time."
Cui Ji smiled and said, "Okay."
Because he knew that what Jiangnan said was true and they would meet again.
The man and the deer left the space crack, and the environment returned to calm again.
Cui Ji remained in the same posture as he said goodbye to Jiangnan and was in a daze for a long time.
"Is my Yinlusi so quiet?"
He moved the chair back and placed it beside him as usual, only then he remembered that the man had left.
"I'm really... used to it."
The scene switches to Jiangnan who has returned to her residence. She looks at the trampled grass and asks, "Has anyone been here?"
"Yes, I have already sent a group of children away."
"I've been away from here for so long."
"Yes."
Before Lu Ming had time to take a sip of hot tea, a new list appeared again.
"Hey~ I haven't had time to get close to my good disciple yet, why are you busy again?"
"Go ahead and do your work. I'll be the one to look after the house."
"A good child really makes the teacher worry less."
Lu Ming hugged Jiangnan and left.
A few days after Lu Ming left, a loud noise was heard from the tower.
Jiangnan rushed over to check the situation and saw Ge Xianyue with a confused look on her face.
When the other person saw her, his eyes lit up instantly and he went over to greet her: "Sister Nannan!"
Jiangnan took a half step back, not being held by his hand, and asked warily: "Why are you here?"
"I sneaked here using the method that Brother Liedanqing told me."
"List it all? The first way now?"
"Yes. By the way! He also asked me to bring something for you." Ge Xianyue said, fumbling for a jade pendant and handed it to Jiangnan.
Jiangnan looked at the jade pendant in his hand and asked, "I don't know him, why did he give me something?"
"I don't know. He always speaks in a vague and confusing way."
"For example?" Jiangnan said, casually hanging the jade pendant around his waist and then paid no more attention to it.
"For example, this tower... eh? It looks different?"
"What's the difference?"
Ge Xianyue looked around and said with certainty, "The layout over there is completely opposite to this place. The photos displayed are all of men."
Jiangnan didn't care much about this sentence and said perfunctorily: "Oh".
"What's your reaction?"
"Normal reaction. What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to thank you for the handkerchief."
"I received your thanks. Go back now. It will be troublesome if you sneak out and get caught."
"You let me go just after I arrived?"
"Or else? Should I still invite you to stay for a cup of tea and chat?"
"Yes you can!"
Jiangnan really couldn't believe that there were such shameless people in the world. As the host here, he naturally had to invite others to be guests in the yard.
Ge Xianyue admired Jiangnan's courtyard and praised, "Sister Nannan, this is where you live. It suits you so well."
"Really? I've lived here for a long time, so I don't feel anything. Wait here for me."
Seeing Jiangnan leave, Ge Xianyue set her eyes on the tree, broke off a branch and secretly hid it in her sleeve.
Jiangnan came back with tea and said, "Sorry for the long wait."
Ge Xianyue sat on the stone bench and said politely, "It didn't take long."
"Try it and see if you can get used to it."
Ge Xianyue opened the lid of the teapot and was greeted by a fragrant aroma. She then asked, "What kind of tea is this?"
"Albizia Julibrissin tea."
"This tea is great! It can calm the mind, soothe the liver and relieve depression, promote blood circulation and reduce swelling. It can also improve mood, relieve mild insomnia, and promote metabolism."
"I don't really understand these things, I just picked them up and made tea."
"I was born into a family of traditional Chinese medicine practitioners, so I know a little bit about it. What about my sister Nannan? What kind of family does she come from?"
"My family is very ordinary, a small farmer."
"It's okay, I think we're a good match."
"what?"
Ge Xianyue quickly covered up what she had blurted out: "No, nothing, I was just kidding."
Jiangnan smiled awkwardly: "Is that so."
