She called softly, “s.h.i.+xin?”

Fan s.h.i.+xin opened his eyes and asked, “Yes? Young Madam, you’re awake.”

“Yes, let’s have a simple breakfast before heading back to the city. Let me drive later. You can put your mind at ease and take a nap.” She got out of bed to boil some water and made two bowls of instant noodles, which they devoured before getting ready to leave.

“Sister w.a.n.g, sorry to have imposed on you these past few days. We’re going back now.”

Madam w.a.n.g asked in astonishment, “You’re leaving so soon?”

“Yeah. The truth is out, and I’ve already performed a ritual by the reservoir. The spirits there have all gone to reincarnate. There won’t be any more unexplained deaths of men in this village. I’ll get the police to publish a clarification.”

Greatly surprised, Madam w.a.n.g said, “Really? That’s wonderful, I no longer have to live in fear from now on.”

“We’ll leave the blankets and the remaining food items here. Do keep them for yourself if you don’t mind.”

“I don’t mind them at all. You bought those with money. We can’t let it go to waste. Why don’t you guys take them with you?”

“Nah, we don’t need them anymore, Sister w.a.n.g. Alright, we’ll be leaving now. My car is parked by the village entrance.”

An Xiaoning was not wearing her mask because it was no longer necessary.

“Alright, then. I’ll see you out.”

Madam w.a.n.g walked them to the village entrance. An Xiaoning got inside the driver’s seat and stared at the women and children who were approaching her from afar. She waved all of them goodbye before driving away.

She said to Fan s.h.i.+xin, “I initially thought that we’d have to stay here for at least a month. Seems like changes are truly unpredictable.”

“Young Madam, it’s all thanks to your ability to communicate with spirits. If you didn’t possess that natural gift, I doubt we’d even get to the bottom of the matter after investigating for two months.” Fan s.h.i.+xin reclined his seat and continued, “I really can’t stay awake anymore. Young Madam, I’ll be taking a nap now.”

“Alright, go get some sleep. I’ll wake you up when we’re home.”

Fan s.h.i.+xin went to sleep peacefully after hearing her words.

An Xiaoning drove throughout the four-hour journey home. By the time they arrived in the city, it would be almost one o’clock.

She focused all her attention on driving.

There was no delay in the journey at all, apart from when she had to use the washroom.

They arrived in A City at 12:04 pm.

It was just the right time for lunch.

Feeling a little hungry, she decided to have lunch before heading home. She had begun craving for some delicious food after having had simple meals during her stint at the village.

Hence, she pulled over in front of a restaurant.

She then woke Fan s.h.i.+xin up and said, “Time to wake up.”

Fan s.h.i.+xin opened his eyes and scanned the surroundings outside the car, only to discover that they were already in A City. He asked, “Young Madam, do you want to have lunch here?”

“Yes, let’s eat before heading home. It’s almost one anyway. Qingyan is definitely at the office now.”

Noticing that she was about to alight from the car, Fan s.h.i.+xin stopped her. “Wait a minute.”

“What’s the matter?”

“Look who’s there…”

An Xiaoning looked in the direction that Fan s.h.i.+xin was staring, only to catch sight of Pei Yi.

Thinking that her eyes had been playing tricks on her, she squinted to take a closer look and realized that it was really Pei Yi.

“Why is he in A City?”

“Not sure. Isn’t he forbidden from showing up in S Nation openly?”

“He must have sneaked in here,” said An Xiaoning, who knew that Pei Yi had never visited S Nation before. Was he here for something urgent? An Xiaoning could not figure out what his agenda was.

Thinking that it was necessary for her to find out more, she put on her mask and said, “Let’s go take a look.”

The two of them alighted from the car and began walking toward the restaurant.

However, An Xiaoning did not choose to sit right in front of Pei Yi. Although she was wearing a mask, she did not wish to cross paths with him in plain sight, especially since she was with Fan s.h.i.+xin.

Besides, there were also other patrons in the restaurant.

An Xiaoning and Fan s.h.i.+xin sat at a table in front of Pei Yi’s. Due to the part.i.tion between the two tables, Pei Yi did not discover them.

On the surface, Pei Yi seemed to be dining alone.

An Xiaoning sent him a text message and asked, “Where are you now?”

He replied, “If I told you, would you tell your people to arrest me openly?”

“I saw you just now. What are you doing in S Nation?”

“I’m giving myself a break by coming out for a breather.”

An Xiaoning replied, “Guess where I am now.”

As soon as she sent the text message, An Xiaoning noticed a change in Fan s.h.i.+xin’s expression. She turned around and met Pei Yi’s eyes. “You’re… smart.”

“Care to share a table?”

“No, let’s eat separately.”

Pei Yi scoffed because he had understood that she wanted to avoid suspicion.

“Suit yourself,” he said before returning to his own seat and continuing to have his meal.

After placing their orders, An Xiaoning and Fan s.h.i.+xin waited patiently for the food to arrive.

“s.h.i.+xin?” asked a woman’s voice.

The two of them looked over to see that it was Wu Pingyang.

Fan s.h.i.+xin suddenly realized the restaurant was rather near the hospital that Wu Pingyang was working at. “You’re here for lunch too?” he asked.

Wu Pingyang nodded and s.h.i.+fted her gaze toward An Xiaoning. Staring at the beautiful woman before her, she said subconsciously, “Who’s this…?”

An Xiaoning opened her mouth slightly, not forgetting that she was still wearing her mask.

However, she decided that it was better for her to keep quiet. After all, if she were to reveal that she was An Xiaoning disguised under a mask, Wu Pingyang would definitely start suspecting something.

After all, why would she need to wear a mask when she’s out with Fan s.h.i.+xin?

Wu Pingyang would definitely suspect that we have an ulterior motive and secret.

Hence, she decided to keep her mouth shut in order to prevent over-complicating things.

She allowed Fan s.h.i.+xin to do the talking instead.

“She’s… someone whom Young Madam had a.s.signed to work with me. We just came back. We were hungry so we decided to stop by for lunch,” Fan s.h.i.+xin explained.

Because of the pause Fan s.h.i.+xin had made in his speech, Wu Pingyang found it a little suspicious and sat down straight beside him. “Let’s eat together.”

She then called the waiter over and placed her orders.

Things began to get a little awkward. Although An Xiaoning detested dining with strangers, she had no choice but to concede since Wu Pingyang was Fan s.h.i.+xin’s girlfriend.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you were back?” she asked.

“I just arrived in A City and I haven’t gone home yet.”

Wu Pingyang asked, “Did you order drinks?”

“No.”

“Shall we order a bottle of liquor?”

Fan s.h.i.+xin said, “You may order one if you’d like to have some drinks, but the two of us are going to sit it out.”
