Tai Yinzi quietly stood in the club’s lobby, watching the club owner playing with the bronze sheet. He didn’t make any noise.

Luo Qiu stopped playing with it after 10 minutes.

“Tai Yinzi, you did well with efficiency this time, although it was crude.”

Tai Yinzi acted humbly then… This was the first time he received appreciation from his boss since he became one of the Black Soul Envoys.

He looked delighted.

Since he came to the club, he was even suppressed by that slave b*tch Qin Chuyu.

Now the recognition from Boss Luo made him remember of the days he was praised by his sect master 500 hundred years ago.

‘What the hell… why does a Taoist with 60 years cultivating experience still have vanity?’

‘More praise please!’

“Master! I’ve thought a lot these days and recognized that I still have lots of weaknesses. From now on, Old Taoist will work harder for the club, to pay back Master’s trust and expectations on me!”

“Oh… Good.” Luo Qiu glanced at this old ghost.

He had no expectations from the beginning… and Tai Yinzi was just the material for Luo Qiu to research the procedure of the transformation of Black Soul Envoys.

“OK, I’m looking forward to your results.” Boss Luo nodded.

Tai Yinzi took a deep breath and made a deep bow to the servant girl, saying respectfully, “Thank you for the teachings. Tai Yinzi will remember it!”

You Ye felt a little surprised, and opened her mouth; but soon it turned to a smile. Then she nodded.

“Master, Old Taoist is going to seek for potential customers right now! And will make you satisfied!”

“Go ahead.” Luo Qiu waved his hand.

Tai Yinzi transformed into a black wind and blew out of the club. After that, Qin Chuyu slowly opened her eyes, saying indifferently, “A traitorous guy will never succeed.”

After, this Taoist cultivator closed her eyes again.

Luo Qiu didn’t take much attention to her words… because it was not important for the club to know if Tai Yinzi was a traitor.

Whether he betrayed them or not, Luo Qiu could easily know, if he wanted.

“Don’t cook dinner this evening.” Luo Qiu gave the bronze sheet to You Ye, ordering her to put it at the basement’s first floor, then said, “I have to welcome a guest.”

…

…

It turned out the customer was Lizi.

Ren Ziling said she would treat Lizi a meal.

For thanking Lizi’s help.

Ren Ziling raised the wine glass at the dinner table, “Let’s toast for revealing the disgusting matters of the cram school and root out a cancer in society!”

Luo Qiu hadn’t seen Ren Ziling’s laugh like this for a long time.

The last time he saw her laugh like this was several years ago.

At that time, she showed delightfulness each time when his father arrested a prisoner.

“Yeah, sure.” Lizi nodded. Even with pan-fried sliced fish in her mouth, she could still speak fluently, “But it’s a pity that we didn’t find out the reason of the students’ deaths by jumping from the building.”

Ren Ziling also felt it to be regrettable, “Yeah, the cram school had been shut down, but the mysterious teacher will go into hiding just for this period.”

“Officer Ma is still investigating this issue right? Those evil-doers will never escape from justice.” Lizi comforted her.

“Right.” Ren Ziling calmed down her mood, “Let’s skip this topic on this happy evening. Let’s talk about something good! Brat, do you still remember Lui Yinyu?”

“The girl of the Lui Village?” Luo Qiu gaped.

“Yes!” Ren Ziling smiled, “She emailed me today, saying that she’ll come to the school around here starting next week!”

“Really?” Luo Qiu nodded, smiling, “That’s good.”

“Yes, hopefully she will have a new life!” Ren Ziling shook the wine glass, “She is going to your school! I promised to treat her to a dinner upon arriving. By the way, you won’t refuse to show her around your school, will you?”

Luo Qiu… Boss Luo had already dropped out of school.

But he didn’t tell them—Of course, he didn’t plan too now either. Luo Qiu nodded and agreed… he knew that girl wouldn’t tell them.

“Why did you agree so quickly?” Ren Ziling gaped, “I thought you’ll feel bothered and refuse it, so I had prepared a lot of words for you.”

“Well… I refuse.”

“…F*ck!! Can you save my face in front of the guest?!!”

“Eat some food.” Luo Qiu didn’t answer but passed some food to Ren Ziling.

“Thank you!” Ren Ziling raised her eyebrows with satisfaction.

Was this what family meant?

Lizi watched and listened to their conversation, and felt something she couldn’t sense spreading from the table.

It made her feel a bit lost.

“Lizi, don’t be shy. Why did you stop eating your favorite food? Not to your liking?” Ren Ziling asked her.

Lizi waved her hand, “No! Sister Ren, the food Luo Qiu cooked is pretty good, I seldom have had such tasty food these years… I’m just unwilling to eat it all at this time.”

“What kind of taste?” Ren Ziling gave a start.

Lizi held up her bowl, and showed a yearning gaze, saying, “There is a warm taste.”

“Er…” Ren Ziling was stunned and quickly had a taste. After a while of chewing, she asked back, “Is it because of the chili?”

Lizi laughed out loud.

“Stop being weird.” Ren Ziling shook her head, “Take more and you can come for dinner any time. Don’t be shy, take it as your own home.”

Lizi nodded slightly.

But she knew that she wouldn’t always come here.

“Where is your hometown?” Luo Qiu suddenly asked Lizi.

Lizi answered after thinking, “It’s a very cold place and constantly snowing.”

Ren Ziling was shocked, “Lizi, I remember your hometown is Hainan on your resume?”

“That’s only my household register.” Lizi shook her head, and blinked eyes, “But it’s not where I grew up… I’ll tell you that later.”

“Where? Don’t be so mysterious.”

Lizi said softly, “Mystery will make you remember me.”

“What the hell? It sounds like you may disappear at any time.” Ren Ziling shook her head, “OK, stop talking, let’s eat.”

Lizi answered with an okay.

…

…

The dinner took a long time.

When she left, Lizi refused Ren Ziling’s request to send her back home; she went downstairs herself… she was used to being alone.

Eating alone, sleeping alone, staying in her rented room alone… Even staying home for half a month… however, she wouldn’t stay in a single place for too long.

She finally turned around and overlooked the floor of Ren Ziling’s home, looking at the light that brought her warmth, comparing it with the cool sky after the rain. Then she muttered to herself, “Well… what about staying for a little while?”

She smiled suddenly, taking out an orange-flavor lollipop and put it into her mouth. Opening her arms, she walked along the white line of the street.

Humming an unknown song.

She suddenly jumped on one foot, like a kid playing hopscotch.

She thought there shouldn’t be many people that knew her.

She was still alone.

She was Lizi, who had been living in this world for 197 years.
