They came back early today, and Shen Zhaozhao wanted to invite Chu Yu to have dinner together, and then apologize to him at the dinner table.

But she stood outside Chu Yu's room and knocked on the door for a long time but no one responded. She was a little confused. Maybe Chu Yu was really angry.

Just as she was thinking this, footsteps were heard behind her, and Chu Yu stood directly behind her and pushed the door open.

Perhaps because he thought she was blocking the door, he reached out and pushed her aside. The force was not strong, but it was extremely insulting.

"you……"

Without waiting for Shen Zhaozhao to utter a second word, he went straight in and closed the door. The dust that had accumulated on the door for who knows how long was all shaken to the ground.

Shen Zhaozhao also suffered a setback.

From then on, she and Chu Yu fell into a long cold war, so long that Shen Zhaozhao used her spiritual power to steal the account books of the corruption of the Leyang County Magistrate; so long that she and Jiang Heng found evidence of Mu Chunrong's murder; so long that the Magistrate and Mu Chunrong were executed.

She didn't say a word to Chu Yu.

After finding out the details of the disaster relief funds in Leyang County, Jiang Heng would return to Beijing to report to the emperor soon. He invited Shen Zhaozhao to a restaurant and took out a red lacquer box.

"Zhao Zhao, I heard you say before that you were looking for a jade ruyi. When I was on my way back to Guangyang County, this thing suddenly fell on me." Jiang Heng opened the box, "It happens to be a jade ruyi as well. Take a look and see if it is what you are looking for?"

In fact, he was very conflicted last night about whether or not to take out the jade ruyi, because he had a hunch that this was the jade ruyi that Zhao Zhao was looking for.

Once she found it, he would never see her again. He selfishly wanted to keep her in this world, but what reason did he have?

She was like the bright moon in the sky, with her own world, which he could not reach. She did not belong here, nor did she belong to him.

Shen Zhaozhao reached out to take it out and have a look, but the jade ruyi flew out of the box directly, circled in the air, and then landed steadily in her hand.

It seems to be spiritual!

Shen Zhaozhao and Jiang Heng looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

Jiang Heng felt as if a stone was pressing down on his heart, making it almost impossible for him to breathe. He could only force a smile and said, "Looks like I have to congratulate Zhao Zhao."

Shen Zhaozhao was so happy that she and Chu Yu could go back soon, and she would be able to see her senior brother and Yu Miaoyi soon.

She almost jumped up, but she just said modestly and sincerely, "Brother Jiang, thank you!"

Infected by her smile, it seemed as if a breeze blew away the haze in Jiang Heng's heart.

If she is happy, he will be happy too, even if they will never meet again in this life.

Shen Zhaozhao returned to the inn holding the red lacquer box. After many days, she knocked on Chu Yu's door again.

Chu Yu quickly opened the door. When he saw it was her, he said nothing and stepped aside to let her in.

Shen Zhaozhao opened the box as if presenting a treasure and held it in front of him: "Ding ding ding, look what this is!"

Chu Yu glanced at him calmly, and asked without any sadness or joy: "How did you find it?"

He had expected this day to come, so he didn't feel any emotion.

Shen Zhaozhao smiled at him and began to take credit: "Of course I helped Brother Jiang a lot, and he gave it to me! I didn't expect that he would have this thing. It's such a coincidence."

It is fate, it is indeed fate.

Chu Yu sneered inwardly. He didn't know whether Shen Zhaozhao was Yu Ruyi's destined person, or Jiang Heng was Shen Zhaozhao's destined person.

Seeing that Chu Yu didn't say anything, Shen Zhaozhao took out the jade ruyi and handed it to him: "I'll keep it for you!"

He seemed to be burned and shook her hand away heavily: "Don't touch me."

The jade ruyi slipped from her hand, and when it was close to the ground, it emitted light and flew back into her hand.

It was a close call, luckily Yu Ruyi has spiritual powers.

Shen Zhaozhao also got angry: "What are you doing? Do you still want to go back?"

"I..." Chu Yu closed his eyes, hesitating to speak.

He couldn't touch the jade ruyi, at least not in front of her.

After a long silence, he slowed down his tone and said, "Take the Jade Ruyi first. It will teleport us back and we need an open area to make a passage. We will leave tomorrow."

Shen Zhaozhao nodded and asked, "Can we leave later tomorrow? I want to see Brother Jiang off first."

Chu Yu half-closed his eyes and said nothing.

Since he didn't say anything, she just assumed he agreed.

"Yeah!" Shen Zhaozhao happily returned to the room holding Yu Ruyi.

Chu Yu glanced at the butterflies fluttering in Shen Zhaozhao's hair. She was so stupid... cute?

The next morning, Shen Zhaozhao saw Jiang Heng and Mu Yang off.

Mu Yang's wealthy father and the prefect of Leyang County have been escorted to Shangjing. Mu Yang has become listless, so Jiang Heng decides to take him to Shangjing to meet his father.

Shen Zhaozhao's fair little face was as crystal clear as white jade, and her big, bright eyes showed some reluctance: "Brother Jiang, I'm really glad to have met you in this world. After we say goodbye today, I only wish you a bright future and no worries."

Jiang Heng raised his hand and rubbed the top of her head, saying softly, "Goodbye, Zhao Zhao."

Shen Zhaozhao originally wanted to avoid it. She didn't like others touching her head. This action seemed a bit intimate.

Besides, she is not even seventeen yet, so she can still grow taller. I heard people say that if your head is touched too much, you won't grow taller.

The most important thing is that her hair will become oily, and the dust removal method cannot remove the oil. She is a lazy person and does not want to wash her hair...

But during these days together, Jiang Heng was a nice person and he even gave her the Jade Ruyi, which was a big favor for her. She paused, but in the end she did not dodge and accepted the pat on the head from Jiang Heng.

After Shen Zhaozhao and Chu Yu finished their lunch, they found a vacant space and planned to go back.

She took out the jade ruyi tremblingly and swallowed unconsciously.

She was quite nervous as she was about to go back.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Shen Zhaozhao began to concentrate and circulate his spiritual power, as success or failure depended on this move.

A figure flashed by, and she felt a flash before her eyes, and her spiritual power dissipated.

The jade ruyi was held by a hand wrapped in colorful sleeves. It kept vibrating, as if it wanted to fly away, but was trapped tightly.

Shen Zhaozhao looked up along the colorful sleeves and wondered if her eyes were really seeing things. How come the peacock was also here?

"Hey, Hua Kongque, why are you trying to steal our Yu Ruyi?"

Su Li waved his jade dragon bone fan in a leisurely manner: "First, I am not a peacock, I am a phoenix; second, I did not rob, I took it directly; third, who said that this jade ruyi belongs to you?"

Here comes another one fanning himself in late autumn to try to be cool. Shen Zhaozhao pursed his lips in disdain.

Chu Yu didn't want to waste any more time talking, so he drew his sword and stabbed at Su Li's hand holding the jade ruyi, but he blocked it with his bone fan.

With a "click", Su Li triggered the mechanism, revealing the sharp blade at the tip of the fan bone.

Suddenly, the situation was tense.

Neither of them had any magic power, so they could only fight head-on. The sword flashed like snow, and Chu Yu stabbed at Su Li's arm. The jade ruyi was thrown into the air by Su Li and then flew towards Shen Zhaozhao.

Su Li was stunned, how could this happen?

He became brutal again and stepped forward and grabbed Shen Zhaozhao's arm.

Shen Zhaozhao waved his spiritual power, pushed Su Li away several meters, and then rushed towards Chu Yu.

Chu Yu subconsciously held her in his arms, but when he remembered something, he quickly pushed her away, but Yu Ruyi had already touched his body.

Shen Zhaozhao only felt that the space around her seemed to be distorted, and even Chu Yu in front of her became blurry, making it difficult for her to see clearly.

When everything became clear again, she discovered that there were golden lines on Chu Yu's forehead, which made his whole face look enchanting and extremely tempting.

Shen Zhaozhao calmed himself down and stopped looking at him, his thoughts a little confused.

The ones on his face... were demonic patterns. She had seen them on the faces of several demons when she died in battle in her previous life.

Chu Yu is a demon!

She originally thought that he just had an erratic personality, but she didn't expect that he had such a special identity.

Her heart sank as if filled with cold lead, and the three big words "She's finished" kept appearing in her mind.

She was really finished. Chu Yu's secret was discovered by her and she would definitely be silenced.
