Rebirth: A Super Foodie and Her Cat Demon Husband

Li Zeen simply pushed his glasses, curled his lips, and said calmly, "This is a really big project. If I do it here, I might not be able to make it to the end. Do you want to bring people to the department?"

Tang Ziji shook his head. "I'm afraid it's too late. Look at the death energy around us. It's all directed at her. I used magic to purify the resentful spirits from her body, but I can't get rid of these death energy. Once the spell expires, these death energy will counterattack her. I'm afraid it will take her life."

At this point, a look of embarrassment finally appeared on Li Zeen's face. His brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of hesitation and worry, as if he was weighing something extremely difficult.

Tang Ziji was incredibly perceptive, instantly understanding what Li Zeen was thinking. He raised his lips in a confident smile and said to Li Zeen, "It's okay. With this little girl here, you'll be safe. She'll be the new head of logistics for our department. As long as she's around, you won't be burdened." As he spoke, Tang Ziji tilted his head slightly, looking at Liu Yuanyuan with a hint of teasing in his eyes.

Li Ze'en, half convinced, slowly turned his head, his gaze settling on Liu Yuanyuan. He surveyed her, sighed softly, and said helplessly, "Even without her, wouldn't I still have to do this job? Stop talking about useless things." As he spoke, he gently placed his bag on the ground and walked steadily behind the eldest aunt of the Lu family. At the same time, he picked up the chocolate Tang Ziji had tossed him, swiftly tore open the wrapper, and popped the chocolate into his mouth.

In an instant, something magical happened. Li Ze'en's eyes suddenly lit up, a glint of madness in them, as if ignited by some kind of fanatical passion. His face was filled with disbelief, and he whipped his head around, staring intently at Tang Ziji. Then, pointing a finger at his own mouth, he eagerly asked, "What's going on with this chocolate? How can it contain such rich Qi? Who developed it, and how did they do it?" His voice trembled with excitement, his eyes filled with a thirst for discovery.

Tang Ziji looked at Li Zeen and just smiled lightly, saying in a very relaxed tone: "No one has developed it. It's purely natural, do you believe it?" There was a hint of mystery in his smile, which made it difficult to grasp.

"That's impossible!" Li Ze'en said loudly and decisively with an extremely firm tone. In his opinion, how could such a magical chocolate not have been carefully researched and developed?

"Forget it. Stop asking me questions. As long as you know this thing exists, you won't collapse here due to exhaustion. Get to work." Tang Ziji obviously had no intention of revealing the truth to Li Zeen, and his words were full of perfunctory meaning.

Seeing Tang Ziji's reluctance to speak, Li Ze'en stopped asking. After finishing his chocolate, he turned to look at Liu Yuanyuan again, his face revealing a row of neat, white teeth as he gave her a friendly smile that seemed to hold a hint of recognition for his new colleague. Then, he slowly squatted down and, with both hands, steadily opened the handbag he had brought, preparing to tackle the thorny patch of skin on Aunt Lu.

Liu Yuanyuan, carrying the food, came to Tang Ziji's side, and after collecting the Qi gathered in her eyes, she began to eat voraciously. She was worried that if Li Zeen really needed her to provide Qi, she would have to be careful not to fail.

While Liu Yuanyuan was eating, she did not forget to put some in front of Tang Ziji.

Tang Ziji smiled as he watched Liu Yuanyuan, whose plump figure had returned after eating, and stuffed the food back into the plastic bag in front of her. After the previous round of feeding, he felt full, so he shared Liu Yuanyuan's thoughts: it would be better to let her accumulate more Qi.

Liu Yuanyuan quickly ate her fill, and to her surprise, she still had half a bag of food left. So, she walked to the only window of the small room and, under the rare warm sunlight of winter, closed her eyes and began to meditate.

She wanted to convert the food she ate into energy as quickly as possible, then condense it into her own Qi, and then absorb some energy from the heaven and earth from the sunlight at this moment.

Liu Yuanyuan quickly entered a state of meditation, her perception of the surroundings gradually dissipated, and her body and mind were focused on the faint light in her body.

Tang Ziji and Li Zeen both turned their gazes to Liu Yuanyuan at the same time. They both sensed the fluctuations of Qi in Liu Yuanyuan's body.

Tang Ziji could directly see the fluctuations of Liu Yuanyuan's Qi. He knew exactly what Liu Yuanyuan was doing, so he wasn't surprised.

But Li Ze'en was completely unaware of this and was greatly surprised. He unconsciously glanced at Tang Ziji again. Seeing Tang Ziji's calm expression, he instantly realized something. So, while he was treating the eldest aunt of the Lu family with a scalpel and silver needles, he teased Tang Ziji, "Your little fiancée does have some skills. Did you teach her? Would you like to teach me too?"

Tang Ziji shook his head and said, "I didn't teach her, but she had this opportunity. Besides, what she can learn, none of us can learn. At least within the scope of what we know, she is unique. It's good for you to know this, and don't let anyone know."

Li Zeen raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's the same as yours. You can't tell the department about it?"

Tang Ziji nodded without hesitation and said, "That's right."

Li Ze'en put on an indifferent expression and shrugged his shoulders, but he didn't stop working at all. He said, "Okay, I'll do whatever you say. After all, you are my boss and you saved my life. Whatever you say, I'll do it."

Tang Ziji didn't deny him but just smiled helplessly.

Liu Yuanyuan didn't know how long she had been meditating here. When she came to her senses, she saw Li Zeen squatting in front of the bag of food she had brought with a pale face, eating desperately.

Tang Ziji, standing by, looked helpless as he hurriedly offered him water, fearing he might choke. Meanwhile, on the ground beside him, the eldest aunt of the Lu family lay quietly with her eyes closed.

The air around became clean and clear, with only dust floating lightly in the sunlight.

She immediately stood up and walked over to the two of them with some worry. She looked at the eldest aunt of the Lu family and asked uncertainly, "How is it? Is the problem solved and the question answered?"

Li Ze'en simply nodded randomly. Tang Ziji then spoke up, "The skin issue has been resolved, so the ghost has dissipated. I've also sealed the death energy back into the bracelet. However, there's been no progress. Be prepared; your aunt is very likely going crazy."
