Chapter 323
Tushan Nine
After Wang Dongqing proposed, they didn't get married right away.
Because Maomao said there was no rush, and she found it a bit troublesome, they first obtained the marriage certificate and postponed the wedding ceremony.
King Wintergreen
Now Maomao is also pregnant, and the two consider themselves fulfilled.
Both of Tushan Jiu's pregnancies were diagnosed by Maomao taking her pulse, but doctors cannot treat themselves; Maomao herself is pregnant, yet she cannot tell from her own pulse whether the baby is a boy or a girl.
She wanted to prepare things in advance, so she planned to go find her master this weekend.
Toward Ice Mountain
Although Maomao is pregnant, she is also someone who can't sit still; because she is slow to notice, she only realized she was pregnant after already being over two months along, and after the checkup the doctor said the fetus was very stable, so she also didn't plan to rest, and today she came to the meeting as well.
At the office now, they have to hold a summary meeting every month, summarizing the month's task situation, and also cross-check the list of missing souls sent up from the underworld.
And this regulation, as expected, is again the work-mode plan set by the AI.
Angry, Tushan Jiu directly summoned Song Jiuan up with a soul-summoning incense.
All this extra work she has to do is entirely thanks to that AI; she wants to smash that AI!
But after Song Jiuan came up, without waiting for her to speak, he first gave a summary of Yi'an Company's overall revenue, in which the AI, as mainstream technology, accounted for seventy percent of the company's income.
Tushan Jiu took a deep breath, then gave a slight smile, "Okay, thanks for your hard work, keep it up, goodbye!"
As soon as the incense went out, the soul was sent back down.
After Mu Mu and a few others found out about this, they laughed for a long time.
Even though it's been a long time, whenever they hold a meeting they occasionally recall it, and they just can't laugh enough, really can't laugh enough.
After the meeting ended, several people walked out, and suddenly their phones rang—a mission came in.
It was a paranormal incident at a bar in the city center.
Upon seeing the bar's name, Xiang Yichu frowned slightly and turned to look at Mu Mu beside her.
Mu Mu couldn't be bothered to look; she was waiting for Xiang Yichu to just tell her directly.
Seeing Xiang Yichu look at her, she asked, "What's wrong? Is the mission difficult? Are there fierce ghosts around?"
Xiang Yichu shook her head, "No, you take the lead later; you're more familiar with this."
Mu Mu looked puzzled, pulled out her phone and glanced at it, "What do you mean by 'occasionally familiar with the route'? Lingering, reluctant to leave?... Let's go, Xiang Bing Shan, you wouldn't... that thing happened so long ago, you actually still remember it!"
What a coincidence—the bar named Lingering is exactly the bar where Mu Mu previously ordered male models.
A year ago, she once got curious about what the bar was like inside, so she went to play there twice.
But the third time she went, the boss saw she was still playing alone and suggested she try 'accompanying play', saying there were many types and there would surely be one she'd like.
The bar's offerings were quite elaborate—werewolf abs, fox scholar, and so on.
She was curious, so she wanted to see what they were like.
So she scanned to pay and ordered one of each type.
Surrounded by a group of male models, she looked at this one, then that one, feeling it was just so-so, not as handsome as the boss had said, and none of them were as good-looking as the Xiang Bing Shan at home.
Moreover, the muscular guy with wolf ears she thought was a bit too bulky, giving off an over-exercised vibe; she personally didn't like that type, and she still preferred the lean muscle of Xiang Bing Shan—the kind that looks slim in clothes but shows muscle when undressed.
But she'd already spent the money, so she couldn't let it go to waste.
So she had the ones who were good at games play with her to rank up.
The rest formed the atmosphere crew, cheering her on.
She always played games seriously and completely failed to notice that several men were staring at her, even sitting sneakily beside her.
Seeing she still hadn't noticed them, a man called the fox scholar said this place was boring and took off his clothes.
In a gap, Mu Mu happened to see his abs.
She looked a bit longer, comparing him in her mind to Xiang Yichu again; although they were quite similar, she felt he wasn't as fair as Xiang Yichu, and she still preferred Xiang Yichu!
Seeing that she had only glanced at him, the man showed little interest, yet he was still somewhat unwilling to give up, thinking about how to attract the attention of this beautiful, wealthy lady.
But just as he was trying to attract Mu Mu, a man walked over to this side.
Xiang Yichu stood opposite them.
He didn't speak, just watched his character die and wait to respawn, then leaned over to the other guy and kept praising how well Mu Mu played.
The fox scholar, already upset about not attracting a beauty's attention, saw that another, even more handsome man had joined the booth, and immediately frowned, asking who he was.
This successfully shifted Mu Mu's attention over here.
For some reason, upon seeing Xiang Bing Shan's dark face, Mu Mu instantly stood up, stood at attention, and asked him how he had come.
How did he come?
It's just because he received a payment reminder!
Upon hearing it was a payment reminder, Mu Mu hurriedly pulled out her phone to take a look.
Ah!!!
She had just used intimate payment!
Going to the bar, Xiang Yichu didn't object, because he knew about her previous two visits.
But ordering male models was something he found a little hard to accept.
As for why he couldn't accept it, he didn't know either.
Anyway, seeing a man approach her made him feel suffocated and very irritable.
But he knows she has now fully adapted to this society, and that she is an individual with her own life and thoughts; he merely took care of her for a while when she was still a puppet.
He has no reason, position, or identity to interfere in her own affairs.
At that moment, the moment this idea arose in him, his heart became even more irritable.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the man who had taken off his clothes.
Just now, Mu Mu seemed to have been looking at him for a long time; does she really like him?
Xiang Yichu slipped his hand into his pants pocket, slowly clenched it into a fist, and only said: "Be safe, come home early."
Having said that, he turned and left with a blank expression.
He felt his emotions were off; he needed to calm down and sort things out.
If it were merely the affection between family and friends, he might evaluate whether the other person was worthy of Mu Mu's liking, or observe his character for fear that Mu Mu would get hurt.
But, he had none of those.
Whenever he thought Mu Mu might like that male student, all he felt was an almost uncontrollable jealousy.
