222 Cave demon cave demon, I am Cave Two.

Bai Yu closed his eyes, arms crossed over his chest, turned his head away not to look at Tushan Jiu, 'You guys like this have zero respect for foxes! I'm angry.'

'Just teasing you.' Tushan Jiu.

Bai Yu jumped in anger, 'Calm my ass!'

He pointed at Tushan Jiu and said, 'You still dare to say!'

Tushan Jiu glanced out the window; the sun had already set.

A ghost-head knife appeared out of thin air, grasped in her hand; Tushan Jiu's gaze suddenly shifted—'The real ghost has come.'

'You still deceive......' Bai Yu turned his head back and saw a male ghost with blood-red eyes and a deathly pale face appear inside the house.

He flashed into the house at great speed, reaching out to grab Lai Hanwen.

Bai Yu was hit head-on, 'Ouch mom!' then darted behind Tushan Jiu, 'Wow, there really is a ghost, Jiu sis! Quick, Jiu sis, quickly take care of him!'

Tushan Jiu naturally didn't need him to say—this is points; why not catch it and keep it for the New Year?

And Lai Hanwen, upon seeing that male ghost, instantly widened his eyes.

'Song, Song Qiang?'

Lai Yunzhi also couldn't believe it—how could Song Qiang appear here, and obviously he's not human at all!

Tushan Jiu showed no mercy, directly swinging her knife.

Song Qiang's head rolled onto the ground, his body frozen there motionless.

'Tu, Tushan Master, this, this, what's going on?'

After being driven out of the opera troupe by you all, he drank too much, accidentally slipped and fell into the water and drowned; after death he turned into a ghost resenting the Lai family, he's been lingering outside your house for several days, but because of 'her' presence he never dared to come in; just now 'her' aura disappeared, so he rushed in.

Lai Yunzhi angrily said: 'This Song Qiang still has the nerve to come for revenge! Clearly he's unambitious, relying on his recent fame from a play, he got swollen-headed, even went to his fans for money—someone of his character, how could we possibly keep him?'

Tushan Jiu raised an eyebrow.

She took out a talisman, collected Song Qiang's soul into it, then tilted her head to glance at Bai Yu: 'This is what I and Madam Bai meant when we said you're no good—look, you really aren't, right?'

Bai Yu: '......'

Lai Mimi on the chair slowly woke up, seeing Bai Yu leaning against the wall, she screamed: 'Ah!!! Bai Yu! Come quickly, I saw the living Bai Yu!!!'

That shout startled everyone in the house.

Although Bai Yu was startled, in front of fans he must keep his composure.

He clenched his fist to his mouth, gave a light cough, then straightened his posture, hands in pockets, 'Hello, I'm the living Bai Yu.'

Tushan Jiu really couldn't bear to watch, she told him to wait outside in the car.

Lai Yunzhi and Lai Hanwen hurriedly followed Tushan Jiu to see her out.

Bai Yu, seeing Tushan Jiu leave, quickly asked Lai Mimi whether she wanted a photo or an autograph, quickly took the photo and got the autograph, then chased after Tushan Jiu.

The location of the Yicheng office, Tushan Jiu didn't know, she also didn't intend to hand it over here, after all she will work in Nan Cheng in the future, or rather she wants to add performance to her own unit.

After settling the bill, Tushan Jiu and Bai Yu had a meal, then she told him she'd be returning to Nan Cheng tomorrow.

However, Bai Yu, who was listening to music, said he also had something to do in Nan Cheng tomorrow, asking her to give him a ride.

Tushan Jiu wondered, isn't it that he never accepts work notices during vacation? Why is he only taking half a break now?

But that's their own business; she didn't pry further, took out her phone and sent a message to Xie Shiyu, saying to add Bai Yu when filing the report.

Xie Shiyu didn't reply; he must be busy, so Tushan Jiu didn't message him again.

In the afternoon, she video-called him and saw he was outside; she asked what he was up to, he said he just came out of a government meeting, preparing to return to the company, and there's another meeting tonight, so they might video chat later.

Just thinking about this Tushan Jiu made him feel something off, because he had heard the loud sound of an airplane taking off then.

But since she couldn't figure out Xie Shiyu, she simply stopped thinking about it.

However, she still decided that after returning to the hotel that night, she would prepare that thing.

Bai Yu opposite her glanced at Tushan Jiu, then lowered his head to continue playing with his phone.

Actually he was sending a message to someone.

【Cave demon cave demon, I am Cave Two, target has no suspicion, over, over!】

The other side quickly replied with six points.

After dinner, Bai Yu escorted Tushan Jiu back to the hotel.

While on the road, Xie Shiyu had already called Tushan Jiu back, saying he saw her message, added Bai Yu's name, and arranged the flight for tomorrow at 10 a. m.

At that time, she wasn't in a hurry, but Xie Shiyu still said something.

That is, he can't go pick her up tomorrow because he has things to do, but he already told Xie Jingzhou and Xie Jingting to pick her up.

The Bai Yu driving, his fox ears are sharp; hearing that, he pursed his lips.

Tushan Jiu expressed understanding, saying she could return on her own, no need for them to make a special trip.

But Xie Shiyu insisted, so Tushan Jiu didn't refuse further.

After returning to the hotel, Tushan Jiu first took a shower, blew her hair half-dry, then went to the study in the suite.

After closing the study door, she didn't come out until an hour later.

The next day Bai Yu came to pick her up, and they boarded the flight back to Nan Cheng.

On the plane, Bai Yu was even more excited than when he returned from Jiangcheng last time, chattering nonstop.

Tushan Jiu gazed absentmindedly at the clouds outside the window, her fingers lightly stroking the bracelet on her wrist, her brows and eyes full of smiles.

The plane landed, but not at the private airstrip; instead at Nan Cheng public airport.

The flight attendant explained that the private airstrip's runway was under maintenance, so landing wasn't possible; they could only request to land here.

Tushan Jiu said she understood.

After waiting for the plane to come to a complete stop, Tushan Jiu told Bai Yu to disembark.

Bai Yu said no rush, he needed to make a call, let her go first.

Tushan Jiu glanced at him, then thought, "Indeed, this acting still needs improvement."

She turned and, under the flight attendant's guidance, exited the cabin door.

Through the passage, Xie Jingzhou and Xie Jingting stood at the exit, surrounded by coming-and-going travelers.

The two stood out like cranes among chickens at the exit, especially noticeable—they were the two most handsome guys!

Tushan Jiu felt this scene was somewhat familiar.

Exactly the same as the day she came to Nan Cheng.

Xie Jingting took the lead and waved at Tushan Jiu, "Sister-in-law! Over here!"

Tushan Jiu smiled at him and walked toward them, "Coming!"

Xie Jingzhou also came over, saying the same words as that day: "Sister-in-law, big brother has an important meeting and can't make it; we'll pick you up and take you home, let's go."

Tushan Jiu nodded, "Mm, he told me, I know, let's go."
