After being reborn, she went on a killing spree in both the Yin and Yang realms.

"Ah."

Jing Yucheng continued driving without any change in expression.

Huh? What kind of answer is that?

Should I agree or not?

Ling Yue couldn't help but take a closer look at Jing Yucheng's face and found that he wasn't actually unhappy, but she could definitely sense his unhappiness.

"Sit still, don't make a fuss, I'm driving."

Ling Yue then sat properly, and the car noticeably sped up, arriving at the Ghostly Realm in no time.

After the car came to a complete stop, Jing Yucheng said to the back seat, "We're here. You can get out now."

Her tone was somewhat cold, and she didn't even glance at Chu Ping.

Chu Ping shrugged nonchalantly, "Have a good time, you two!"

After saying that, he got out of the car in a cheeky manner.

Goodness, does this person have a split personality?

I recall that female version of Chu Ping, with a fiery and alluring appearance, a cold and ruthless personality.

This guy is completely different from the male version of Chu Ping from before, who was cheeky and had a carefree attitude.

When Jing Yucheng saw that everyone had left, Ling Yue was still staring intently at their backs, as if she was reluctant to part.

"Xiaoyue, are you close to that person?"

"How did you know each other?"

Jing Yucheng wanted to have a proper talk with Ling Yue; he disliked deception and betrayal.

Ling Yue then looked at Jing Yucheng, and only then did she realize what was happening, so she laughed rather unkindly.

"I knew you were angry, didn't I? Hehehe, are you jealous?"

The thought of a female version of Chu Ping made Ling Yue laugh again, and she decided to tease Jing Yucheng.

Jing Yucheng didn't answer immediately, and somewhat awkwardly looked away from Ling Yue, glancing elsewhere.

Seeing him like this, Ling Yue didn't want to tease him for even a second longer. Instead, she reached out and forcibly turned his face to face.

"What are you thinking about!"

"Master Chu Ping is nearly two hundred years old!"

"Emmm, how am I supposed to explain this to you? I don't know what he originally looked like, nor do I know why he can stay so young."

"And, I'll let you in on a secret, he's intersex, you know, he can switch between being a man and a woman!"

As Ling Yue spoke, she unconsciously moved very close to Jing Yucheng, as if afraid that someone might be listening in.

Jing Yucheng didn't seem to show any shock or doubt towards Ling Yue's incredible remarks. He seemed to have a really strong ability to accept things and a very high level of trust in her.

"Baby, I miss you."

Ling Yue: ……

"I'm seriously sharing a secret with you, so please concentrate..."

The rest of the words were cut off by Jing Yucheng...

At this moment, Su Shiming and Seventeen had just finished eating outside, toothpicks dangling from their mouths as they swaggered back to the Ghostly Human World.

I recognized the car from a distance. When I got closer, I realized it was the car of the missing person's cousin!

In a moment of excitement, he let go of Seventeen's shoulder and ran over.

There's someone in the car! Without thinking, he excitedly knocked on the car window, then covered the window with his other hand to block out the light, and peered through the window to see what was happening inside.

This sight stunned him, and he quickly turned his back. Not suitable for children.

Seventeen, who had followed, was also curious and wanted to see what was going on inside the car, but Su Shiming pulled her aside.

Oh dear, they really have no sense of propriety. The young couple hasn't seen each other for so long, shouldn't absence make the heart grow fonder?

A moment later, Ling Yue ran off the car with a flushed face. When she saw Su Shiming and Seventeen, her face turned red even more.

Just as Su Shiming was about to laugh awkwardly, Jing Yucheng got out of the car. Su Shiming was inexplicably glared at by him and smiled apologetically at Jing Yucheng.

"Haha, what a coincidence, cousin! When did you get back from your business trip?"

Why didn't you ask me to pick you up?

Jing Yucheng glanced at the young girl beside him and said meaningfully, "Will you have time to see me?"

"Bro, this is my girlfriend, Seventeen. Isn't she beautiful?"

Jing Yucheng had already noticed the difference in Seventeen, and simply nodded in acknowledgment.

Seventeen didn't know why, but she always felt that this person had a very strong aura. Then she greeted Jing Yucheng obediently, "Hello, cousin, I'm Seventeen, and I'm Xiaoming's colleague."

Upon hearing this, Jing Yucheng raised his hand to cover the stray hairs that had stood up on Ling Yue's head due to her panic, his smile full of doting affection, "It seems that our little Yue has grown a lot while I was away."

Ling Yue looked up at him with a silly smile, suggesting that everyone go back inside the store to chat, but Jing Yucheng refused.

"Baby, I have work to do, so I can't stay with you. I'll come find you tonight."

That's right, he just got back, and there must be a ton of work waiting for him, so we didn't keep him.

Su Shiming saw that Jing Yucheng's car had already driven far away, but Ling Yue was still standing there like a statue, not returning to the shop for a long time.

"Oh, you seem so reluctant to leave. Why don't you come with my brother? There aren't many orders at the store anyway."

Ling Yue snapped out of her daze and quickly shook her head. She couldn't let love cloud her judgment. "Something happened at your grandfather's house. Come on, let's go inside and talk about it."

They had just finished lunch, and at this time, there were no customers in the Ghostly Human World.

As soon as Ling Yue entered, she saw Chu Ping sitting at the bar closest to Chen Wenli, sipping his drink and chatting with Chen Wenli.

Ling Yue hadn't expected Master Chen to be so magnanimous, to forgive and forget so quickly, and to get along peacefully with Chu Ping.

I still remember the first time the two met, Chen Wenli was choked by Chu Ping and suspended in mid-air.

"Let's have a short meeting while everyone's here."

Ling Yue had previously mentioned the suicide of the maid at the Jing residence in the group chat, and everyone gathered around upon hearing it, clearly quite interested in the matter.

"Is everyone here?"

What about our original aspirations?

Li Sijun quickly replied, "He asked for a week's leave, saying he was going to accompany his master to work in another city."

Well, that makes sense. He was originally a junior monk from Baiyun Temple who came to the Ghostly Human World part-time. He can't abandon his main job to do a side job, can he?

"Regarding the matter of the Jing family's maid hanging herself, does anyone have any clues?"

Ningxia, who had been fiddling with his laptop, suddenly looked up and asked, "Does this count as us taking the order? Will there be any payment?"

Well, this guy really is in charge of finance; all he cares about is money...

Ling Yue scratched her forehead, a little embarrassed, and said, "I haven't thought about the money..."

"Boss, this month's financial situation doesn't look too good."

Ling Yue: ……

Forcing a smile, he said, "Okay! I'll go negotiate! We have to close this deal!"

Su Shiming couldn't help but tease, "Little sister-in-law, even if you can't win her over, as long as you ask, my brother will definitely give you the money!"

After all, money is the last thing he lacks.

"Shut up and get down to business!"

"Master Chen, what's your opinion?"

Ling Yue looked at Chen Wenli, who had been silent all along, wanting to hear his opinion.

"Are you sure it was suicide?"

This question really stumped Ling Yue. Judging from the situation at the scene, her neck was hanging from the chandelier, but it was impossible to tell whether it was the primary crime scene or a staged suicide.

But you'd have to ask the police...

Ling Yue remembered that Jing Yangsheng seemed to have some connection with that side, and she believed that he was also investigating the matter without her having to ask.

"The body has been taken back to the police station."

Are there surveillance cameras at the scene?

Chen Wenli became somewhat anxious when he saw that Ling Yue knew nothing about the matter.

"I have to go back to the Jing residence. Please excuse me."

Ling Yue was about to say that Grandpa Jing had already arranged for someone to investigate, but she opened her mouth and then didn't say it.

Chu Ping then spoke slowly, "I asked some of my old friends who are still alive, and in this world today, the only people who can freely control and collect ghosts are the Qin family. However, the Qin family's secret technique has been lost for a long time, so we can't be 100% sure it's the Qin family."

Qin family?

At this moment, Seventeen suddenly asked, "The Qin family of Kyoto?"

"Who else could it be but the Qin family?"

Ling Yue was completely confused, wondering if she was just too ignorant.

Chu Ping took a sip of wine to moisten his throat, and his interest was piqued.

"The Qin family of Kyoto has served in the military for generations and has made outstanding military achievements. They enjoy a high reputation in Kyoto and even throughout the country."

"I think you've gone stupid from reading too much! You're completely oblivious to what's going on around you, only focused on studying the classics!"

Ling Yue knew this guy was being sarcastic. Aside from entertainment gossip, she didn't really know much about other circles...

"and then?"

The main point is to ask sincere questions.
