"What do you mean?"

Lin Shouyue, who caught the interest in her eyes, began to feel his scalp tingling.

Reason told him that even Fan Ning would not do anything too extreme in public, but what if?

Everything is going smoothly, what if something happens?

"What do you want to do...what do you want to do to me...?" Lin Shouyue cautiously tested and silently took a step back.

"..."

"She's not interested in you!" Ling You was helpless. He silently glanced at Fan Ning, who had a villain filter on him without knowing when, and couldn't help laughing as he looked at her.

Fan Ning immediately gave the system a bad review.

[Where's the promised filter bonus? Why hasn't Lingyou responded? Bad review! ]

The system felt wronged: [Don’t you even consider who he is? No system can stop someone who has been “brainwashed” like him! !]

Fan Ning tutted his words and sneered: [Don't give me excuses. Remember my compensation. Also—if you're new, practice more.]

system:【……】

"Yes, I'm not the one interested in you," Fan Ning smiled, clasped his hands together, and the wind around him began to rustle. "...Do you want to meet her?"

With these words, Lin Shouyue pursed her lips and started to get nervous again.

He didn't want to anger Fan Ning at this moment, which would lead to complications. But when he said this, coupled with her smile but sinister expression...

I couldn't bring myself to ask that question.

"What are you afraid of? You don't show any piety at all," Fan Ning said ambiguously, and began to raise his hand to fiddle with the sound of the wind around him.

By the way, he whispered: "Don't you want to meet him?"

Ling You couldn't help but sigh at Senior Sister Qiu's good temper. She was really willing to help when there was something she needed!

"Wait, wait..." Seeing that the situation was starting to go wrong, Lin Shouyue could no longer hold back his facial expression. He swallowed and expressed his opinion as tactfully and calmly as possible, while at the same time turning his gaze to Ling You for help.

"Can you tell me who you were talking to?"

With a "gulp", Lin Shouyue slowed down for a moment, and inexplicably had the illusion that he was witnessing something extraordinary.

"Aren't you obsessed with her?" Fan Ning replied concisely. After saying that, he nodded and added, "I've thought about it. You want me to convey a message, but the requirements are quite high. I can't let the market price go down because of you..."

"So, let the real owner talk to you."

"..."

"Wha, what?"

Lin Shouyue’s eyes widened.

His mind was completely sunken by these words, and he was completely unable to process the information, but his hands honestly began to tidy up his clothes, and he even remembered the bloodstains on his face.

Ling You couldn't bear to watch it anymore and handed someone a handkerchief.

Perhaps I was infected by his emotions and swallowed the truth that was on the tip of my tongue.

...It's a bit too cruel to let him know that the person he has been longing for is right next to him, watching him act stupidly.

"Clothes, face, oh yeah, face..."

"What should I say when we meet? How is Senior Sister now?"

"What if Senior Sister doesn't want to see me..."

"..."

"Lin Shouyue," a gentle voice came over along with the breeze.

The person who was chattering just now was stunned all of a sudden. He stood there stupidly and could only respond when he opened his mouth.

"I'm so sorry for putting you in this predicament, and I'm so sorry... Even though I'm so sad, hearing you say these words again, I still feel genuinely happy."

"Senior Sister Qiu..." Lin Shouyue stood up. The moment she heard these words, the corners of her mouth slowly curled up. "I'm honored... No, I'm very happy to hear this."

He looked ahead, his eyes sparkling, his palms facing upwards as if grasping something. "If my coming here can bring you even a little bit of pleasure... then I think it's worth it."

Tears streamed down Lin Shouyue's face. It was such a strange scene, but Ling You felt a pang of pain in his heart when he saw it.

"Give them some space," he put his arm around Fan Ning's shoulder and walked out. The people at the foot of the hill were gradually moving up, and if they went any further, they would meet.

"If I also... forget it."

Ling You said this sentence for some unknown reason, but before he finished speaking, he gave up because he couldn't expect Fan Ning's response.

He smiled to himself, feeling somewhat melancholy: "I really can't imagine you making such a decision..."

"Because I won't face this kind of choice," Fan Ning understood what he meant and glanced sideways.

The person and soul behind me were still telling something, in the wind, under the trees, out of everyone's sight.

Fan Ning suddenly reached out and pressed Ling You's heart.

She tilted her head and smiled, blinking her right eye, her tone particularly mischievous: "No one can take away what I want, even humans."

"If you die accidentally, I also happen to know some techniques to summon spirits. It would be a pleasure to keep you company. It wouldn't have any effect on me."

"..."

Ling You: "...I should be moved, but I just can't do it."

Fan Ning: "If you die..."

"..."

"...Can't I just not die?" Ling You rolled his eyes at her, his face expressionless, but with a hint of helpless indulgence in his eyes. "At least, in order to avoid having to try your necromancy, I will try my best to stay alive."

Ah, actually, the art of summoning souls can also be useful even if the souls are not dead. Fan Ning thought about it, and his eyes vaguely fell on Ling You beside him.

He kept walking forward, thinking that the matter was over, and he never expected that the person next to him could still have strange ideas just one step away.

"Fan Ning..."

The atmosphere between the two was interrupted by the monk who happened to bump into them at this moment. The monk's face was solemn, and it was obvious that he had thought of countless possibilities on the way here.

Fan Ning stopped and looked at him, and then heard the sound of more people coming.

"Now that things have come to this, we must eliminate the ghost blocking our way," someone said in a high-sounding voice, his face tense, looking very dissatisfied with his previous hesitation. "Junior Brother Li has been bewitched and has been trying to make the opposite decision from us. If it is really Senior Sister Qiu, I'm afraid it's just a lonely spirit that wants to push us into destruction!"

Ling You sensed something was up when he heard this. He turned around and saw Fan Ning glance at everyone without surprise, and now he was yawning with drooping eyelids.

...If she really had no ability, she would probably be facing a "righteous gang fight" soon.

Ling You thought for a moment, then calmly stood in front of Fan Ning and pointed at the scene behind him: "What if it really is that Senior Sister Qiu herself?"

"..."

Everyone looked at Lin Shouyue crying and laughing in front of the empty tree roots on the hill, and their faces became more determined.

"Impossible! Could it be that you too have been bewitched by that evil spirit? If it really was Senior Sister Qiu..."

Fan Ning suddenly added: "If that's true, what do you want to do?"

The monk hesitated for a moment, his eyes fixed on the bizarre scene before him. Ultimately, he chose to trust his own judgment. With his eyes open, he swore loudly, "If it really is Senior Sister Qiu, I will kowtow to you and admit defeat!"
