Of course, for Little Wei and the others, they were completely at a loss for words.
"He runs so fast—this is the fastest ghost I’ve ever seen," Jiang Chu remarked from the side, sighing in amazement.
The ghosts she had seen at home before were nothing compared to this one.
"Now I’m a bit confused—who exactly killed him in the first place?"
This guy’s escape speed was practically unmatched in the entire army.
Fu Yuanzhong withdrew his gaze, his earlier relaxed demeanor from shopping completely gone.
"This is trouble. We need to deal with it as soon as possible."
Fu Yuanzhong had a sense of justice in him.
Some ghosts could be left alone, but ones like this—the kind that harmed people—were a danger to the world if left unchecked for even a moment.
"Let’s not worry about that for now. Let’s go buy groceries first," Youyin said with a light smile.
She knew those two were the main characters. Even if their behavior was utterly baffling, not every author had high standards—you couldn’t expect every writer to be intelligent.
This situation was pretty much par for the course.
"Alright." Fu Yuanzhong naturally knew Xu Yichen wouldn’t be easy to handle.
But it didn’t matter—they had Jiang Xixi on their side. Remembering what had happened back at the house, Fu Yuanzhong felt no pressure on his shoulders.
He wasn’t stupid. The resentment clinging to Xu Yichen had to come from either a ghost or Zhao Xi.
Whether the ghost lived or died wasn’t his concern.
Might as well take it easy for now, prepare some talismans, and seal that thing away later.
Little Wei was about to continue following the trio around the supermarket when Youyin abruptly pulled her away.
"What are you doing?" Little Wei pouted, looking at Youyin with puppy-dog eyes.
"We’ve barely had any time alone together," Youyin said, a hint of dissatisfaction in her voice.
Little Wei: "..."
"I’m a ghost," Little Wei blinked.
Youyin couldn’t help but laugh.
"I know that, but I’ve always thought of you as just like me," Youyin said, taking Little Wei’s hand.
She wanted to pinch Little Wei’s cheeks, but the supermarket was full of cameras. If someone saw the footage, they’d probably think she was insane.
"So what’s the point of being alone like this?" Little Wei asked again.
Youyin squeezed her hand.
"Just seeing you makes me happy."
Even though she hadn’t been able to accept her own sapphic identity before, after all these days, Youyin found herself embracing it without any hesitation.
Honestly, even she couldn’t believe it.
"Besides, you could kiss me first," Youyin said.
Little Wei: ???
No, no, no—she didn’t like taking the initiative.
Being proactive was exhausting. She preferred letting Youyin make the first move.
Lying back and enjoying the ride was a beautiful thing—why should she do all the work?
"You can’t do it? Not up to the task?"
Little Wei hadn’t expected that her simple refusal would make Youyin so bold.
Unbelievable.
"Are you provoking me?" Little Wei was speechless.
This woman was seriously shameless.
Before Youyin could react, Little Wei grabbed her head and planted a fierce kiss on her lips.
Youyin was left dazed, nearly breathless from the sudden intensity.
"What was that for?" Youyin touched her lips, her face flushing.
This was her first time being kissed.
Even if it had been completely unexpected.
"What’s wrong? You told me to kiss you—are you regretting it now?" Little Wei couldn’t understand.
Hah. Women were all the same.
Once they got what they wanted, they lost interest.
"No, it’s just… a little strange," Youyin said, rubbing her face, a sweet smile tugging at her lips.
Living like this wouldn’t be so bad.
"What’s strange about it?" Little Wei pursed her lips.
"Maybe I’m just not used to it," Youyin said, though her smile remained.
She really, really loved days like this.
Little Wei was about to say something else when she suddenly remembered—
Wait, if they left, didn’t that mean Jiang Chu and Fu Yuanzhong were alone together?
The thought sent a thrill of excitement through her bones.
"Si, Si—what are those two kids up to now?"
Had they started kissing yet?
"They’re picking vegetables. The scenario you’re imagining isn’t happening, so give it up. Jiang Chu’s been burned by love before—she’s not that naive. And Fu Yuanzhong’s personality is what it is. If you’re expecting sparks between them, you might as well expect pigs to fly."
Little Wei: ???
"Then why don’t you fly up a tree and show me?" Little Wei shot back.
Si: ?
"You’re about to get smacked," Si said, exasperated.
Could this girl go one day without being a brat?
"Hmph, I don’t believe you. I’m going to sneak a peek." With that, Little Wei dragged Youyin back toward where they’d left the other two.
Before long, they spotted Fu Yuanzhong pushing a shopping cart while Jiang Chu picked out groceries.
Just vegetables and such.
God knew how awkward Jiang Chu felt.
Why had their ancestor and Youyin just run off like that? She couldn’t leave either, so she was stuck here watching Fu Yuanzhong shop.
Fu Yuanzhong noticed Jiang Chu’s nerves and softened his expression.
"No need to be so tense. I don’t bite," he said, patting her shoulder.
The touch only made Jiang Chu stiffen further, but as Fu Yuanzhong resumed shopping, some of her tension eased.
"Are all Taoist priests like you?" Jiang Chu asked, trying to lighten the mood.
Whether in history books or novels, the image of Taoist priests was nothing like Fu Yuanzhong.
"I’m a Taoist, not a monk. Besides, with modernization and technology, we have to study too. Some of this stuff is actually pretty interesting." With that, Fu Yuanzhong pulled out his tablet and handed it to Jiang Chu.
"Take a look at my notes."
Jiang Chu hesitated before accepting it. Opening his note-taking app, she was met with hundreds of pages of data and research.
So much.
"Is this all your usual work?"
She even spotted a section on the Bagua formation.
"Yep. Some things can be explained scientifically, and honestly, studying is kind of fun for me," Fu Yuanzhong said casually.
Watching him speak so confidently, Jiang Chu couldn’t help but compare him to her ex.
Her former boyfriend was nowhere near Fu Yuanzhong’s level.
Even if Fu Yuanzhong weren’t a Taoist, he’d probably make an excellent scientist, right?
Jiang Chu didn’t understand the data, but she was deeply impressed.
And Fu Yuanzhong had just handed her his tablet—something so important—without a second thought.
It stirred something in her.
At the very least, her ex had never let her touch his phone.
Not that she’d ever wanted to snoop.
Suddenly, Jiang Chu remembered their ancestor’s words, and her expression turned awkward.
No matter what, someone as outstanding as Fu Yuanzhong would never like someone like her.
Better to just stay friends.
"I just think you’re amazing, but honestly, I don’t get any of this. I only graduated from a second-tier university."
Jiang Chu couldn’t help feeling inferior.
"Second-tier? That’s fine. Even most grad students wouldn’t understand this stuff. I just wanted to help you relax."
