No one notified me in advance. Everyone in the end times is crazy.

Chapter 326 What? Jealous?

"Cui Ji! Have you been laughing for a little too long?"

"Sorry." Cui Ji apologized and turned around to face Jiangnan.

She sat on the chair, her hands on her waist, her face puffed up.

Cui Ji couldn't help but burst out laughing and said jokingly, "You look like a hen about to lay eggs now."

"What? You actually said that to me!" Jiangnan rolled up his sleeves, threw Cui Ji to the ground, and punched his shoulders.

Cui Ji looked at her with a smile in his eyes and said, "Are you giving me a massage?"

"What? Fight to the death, you bastard!"

When Jiangnan clenched her fist to hit his chest, Cui Ji's hand passed through her hair and reached behind her head, and he pressed her head into his arms first.

"you…"

"Don't move. I'll help you clear the damage Hua Su has done to your soul."

"it is good."

"Don't be nervous, just give your body to me."

Jiangnan's body was completely relaxed and he lay in Cui Ji's arms.

"Cui Ji is emotionally stable and reliable, and he even has a faint scent of ink on him, which always makes me feel at ease."

Luo Shiyu squatted down beside the two of them, looked at Jiangnan and asked, "Teacher, are you falling in love with him?"

His gaze turned to Cui Ji, who was hugging Jiangnan tightly on the pretext of clearing erosion.

"Do you like my teacher? If so, go after her. I always feel that she would be happier with you than with me."

At least you wouldn't act like a child with her, embarrass her, make her look worried, make her squat under a tree and wipe her tears, make her...

"Tap-tap-tap-"

Tears dripped onto the back of his hand, and Luo Shiyu realized that he was crying.

I cry all the time and always make my teachers worry about me, even though I'm clearly not a child anymore.

"Jiang... Nannan, fell asleep? No wonder, you must not have slept well last night after having a nightmare."

Luo Shiyu's attention was drawn to Cui Ji's voice. He watched him caress Jiangnan's sleeping face, then gently pick him up, place him on the bed, and lean over...

Luo Shiyu rushed over and tried to catch Cui Ji's illusion, and stopped him: "Stop! What are you going to do to my teacher!"

Luo Shiyu breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the other party just leaned over to cover Jiangnan with the quilt.

"You are a gentleman."

Luo Shiyu stood in front of the bed and continued, "I'll stay here! Let's see who dares to touch my teacher."

After an unknown number of hours, Luo Shiyu went from standing to sitting, yawning non-stop out of boredom. He looked at Cui Ji, who had been standing there working, and complained, "You're too much of a gentleman. You're just fiddling with those tattered books and don't even look back at my teacher."

"Hmm~ I had a really good sleep."

Luo Shiyu heard the voice and looked at Jiangnan who was sitting up and stretching. He went over to complain: "I told you that he..."

"you're awake."

Luo Shiyu was startled and looked at Cui Ji who appeared beside him.

【When did this guy come here? 】

Jiangnan jumped out of bed, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip, and then spoke: "You're awake. I slept well. I didn't dream about Hua Su this time. You really are worthy of being the Judge. You are reliable in your work."

"This is only temporary. If you want to completely eradicate the problem, you can give me the token."

Jiangnan took off the jade pendant from his waist and asked, "Is this it?"

"Correct."

Jiangnan placed the jade pendant in Cui Ji's palm, then immediately took it back, saying mischievously, "No!"

"Stop messing around! Hua Su's soul is sleeping here, and it's a real threat to you right now."

[A token? A soul? Why does it feel like a ghostly token from my current plane? Is it a coincidence? Or…]

Jiangnan thought for a moment and said with a smile, "Could you trouble the great judge to send her to the afterlife?"

"you sure?"

"Yes, she was sleeping in here, just to find a suitable person to take over and be reborn. I ruined her chance and set her free."

"This is far from as simple as you think. If she wanted to take over someone else's body and be reborn, why would she need to offer a sacrifice? And why would she wait so long to choose you, who could potentially surpass her and become the Heavenly Dao?"

"Hey? Why?"

"Until you figure everything out, I think it's best for you to keep Hua Su's soul as a bargaining chip."

"As a hostage?"

"Correct."

"A clear list of threats?"

"Yes."

Jiangnan shook his head and rejected Cui Ji's approach.

"How can Li Danqing tell if I've been corrupted by Hua Su? All they have to do is look at my actions, words, and demeanor. As long as I can act like one, then I'm Hua Su, too."

"What do you want to do? Play a risky game?"

"The other party has already found me, so naturally I have to play a good show with him!"

"It's mainly because I have so many things I want to know. The mysteries that are bothering me are growing. Maybe making a list can help me find the answers."

Cui Ji suddenly grabbed Jiangnan's wrist and tried to dissuade him, "How are you going to pretend to be someone you don't know at all? Even if you can deceive the world, the relationship between Hua Su and Lie Danqing alone is enough to deceive you!"

Jiangnan smiled and teased, "What? Are you jealous?"

"Nonsense!" Cui Ji looked away and said stubbornly, "I'm just worried that you'll lose your innocence."

Jiangnan joked, "How much is innocence worth?"

Cui Ji's grip on her wrist suddenly increased, and he spoke word by word, "What did you say?"

"Hiss~ It hurts, what are you doing?"

"Repeat what you just said."

"I'm just kidding. I definitely know how to take care of my own body!" Jiangnan changed the subject and asked, "Why are you so excited? Are you angry?"

Cui Ji released his hand, closed his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "No."

"really?"

"Ah."

"You looked completely different just now than usual!"

"You're wrong."

"Oh~ I never thought that such a stable guy would lose control of his emotions because of worrying about me." Jiangnan said as he used his hand to lift a strand of his hair and swept it across Cui Ji's face.

Cui Ji said, "It's itchy, stop it." But he didn't try to stop her at all.

Jiangnan laughed and increased the movement of his hands, saying, "Are you convinced?"

"Impressed."

"Then show me the Book of Life and Death."

"What do you want the Book of Life and Death for?"
