Lu Zhixing said that and opened the CP super-topic for the two of them, then shoved the phone into Xi Yu’s hands.

Xi Yu didn’t understand what was going on. He took the phone, and the first thing he saw was a collection of photos of himself and Lu Zhixing.

It was obvious that they had been screenshots taken from the livestream. Some of them were quite blurry.

One of the clearer ones showed him feeding Lu Zhixing a spiritual fruit, with Lu Zhixing unable to finish it and the fruit still resting against his lips.

Xi Yu was shocked.

“They even captured this?” Xi Yu said awkwardly. “Then doesn’t that mean everyone knows I was giving you special treatment?”

“Keep scrolling.”

Xi Yu nodded and slid his finger down.

“Why are some of the words in these pictures upside down?”

Lu Zhixing’s face slowly turned red.

Xi Yu still hadn’t realized how serious the situation was. After finally finding one that wasn’t upside down, he opened it and read aloud.

“‘Xi Yu used a spell to bind Lu Zhixing. His fingertips slid down from Lu Zhixing’s Adam’s apple, and then he lowered his head and kissed…’”

Xi Yu stared in disbelief, his voice changing completely.

“Kissed him?”

……………………….

Xi Yu realized something was wrong and immediately shut his mouth, but he read extremely quickly. Before his brain could process it, his eyes had already taken in everything that came next.

Something about blood boiling with desire, something about dampness and confusion…

Wait.

Was this right?

What was this?

This was Weibo, not a king-size bed in a hotel!

The phone had become a hot potato. Xi Yu immediately tossed it back to Lu Zhixing. The tips of his ears were completely red, and, in an obvious attempt to prove that nothing was going on, he even shifted to the side to put some distance between himself and Lu Zhixing.

Follow Your Heart, Follow Your Jade…

Now he understood.

So it wasn’t a typo.

That “Jade” was his Jade!

Was the human world really this open now?

Could that kind of thing actually be posted openly on Weibo?!

The fans screamed excitedly. Seeing that the person they had just been enthusiastically greeting had suddenly lowered his head and even looked like he wanted to cover his eyes, they became even more excited.

Shen Qing and Luo Yuan weren’t surprised. They had watched the entire livestream and already knew about the CP fans.

They just hadn’t expected there to be this many.

Jiang Shuhe and Lu Zheng exchanged a glance, and they saw excitement in each other’s eyes.

After descending the mountain, the several guests waved together, bringing the livestream to an end.

Once it was over, Xi Yu escaped into the car as if fleeing for his life. He even forgot to say goodbye to Lu Zhixing.

Only after he could no longer see the fans did the heat in his face finally subside a little.

Otherwise, his head would be filled with that fanfiction from just now.

Lu Zhixing watched Xi Yu’s back and pursed his lips, the atmosphere around him becoming somewhat gloomy.

So annoying.

I want to be with Master every second of every day.

Jiang Shuhe pulled Lu Zhixing along, completely unaware of his low mood. She mysteriously said,

“Mom prepared a gift for you.”

Luo Cheng’an sat in the back seat.

“Eh? This isn’t the way home.”

Their house was on the left. They were currently heading to the right.

Luo Yuan was driving, and Shen Qing turned around.

“It is the way home.”

Only when they arrived in front of a luxurious villa did Luo Cheng’an realize what was happening.

He exclaimed happily, “We got a new house?!”

The butler opened the door, and Luo Yuan parked the car in the garage.

“We didn’t change houses before because we didn’t want to alert the enemy. But living there always felt uncomfortable. Now that the crisis is over, of course we’re getting a new home.”

He had already started preparing this place when he learned that there was something wrong with their previous house.

Luo Cheng’an ran into the living room and looked around.

“It’s so pretty.”

The layout was even better than the previous house. Although the decorations were simple, the overall atmosphere was fresher and cleaner.

It was minimalist in style, but everything inside was imported, and the expensive quality was obvious at a glance.

Xi Yu didn’t care much about interior decoration. He simply looked around the house.

Seeing this, Luo Cheng’an stood up from the sofa.

Shen Qing and Luo Yuan also cautiously looked over.

There was only one reason.

Xi Yu looked exactly like he had on the day he first returned home.

Back then, after looking around for a while, he had told them that they didn’t have much time left to live.

The three of them stared at Xi Yu.

Luo Yuan was especially nervous. He had chosen this villa himself. Please, let it not be bad!

Luo Yuan was a businessman, and many businessmen believed in feng shui. But Luo Yuan was relatively unaffected by it. At most, he would buy a couple of money trees. Most of the time, he still believed that hard work brought rewards.

But things were different now.

He had almost been killed.

He was especially afraid that the feng shui would be bad. Affecting his business was secondary. He absolutely could not let it affect his family’s health.

Shen Qing wasn’t much better. Her heart was practically in her throat, afraid that someone might try to harm their family again.

Xi Yu walked around the entire house, then looked at the three of them.

“It’s pretty good.”

The moment Xi Yu finished speaking, the three of them simultaneously let out a sigh of relief.

Xi Yu didn’t mention that there were some minor problems with the house’s layout.

Although the layout was average, the location was excellent. It faced the sun, making it less likely to attract evil spirits.

Actually, in an ordinary house, as long as people lived there regularly, there usually wouldn’t be much of a problem. At most, if the location was bad or the layout was poor, the residents might experience some minor bad luck.

A house as terrible as their previous one couldn’t have become that way without human interference.

Even if a house were built on top of an abandoned hospital or a graveyard, as long as people lived there regularly, they generally wouldn’t be harmed.

The dead would be taken away by the Black and White Impermanence. Even those who died with many regrets could usually reincarnate.

Unless, like Zhao Qi before, someone had been murdered with hatred in her heart, dying while carrying two lives, leaving her soul trapped with unfinished attachments.

Only when various factors came together could a vengeful ghost be formed.

Xi Yu moved his fingertips slightly and adjusted the layout that was affecting the house’s financial fortune.

Perfect.

Xi Yu asked, “Where’s my room?”

“I’ll take you up to see it,” Luo Yuan said.

Shen Qing said, “I’ll go too. We can take a look, then come back down for dinner.”

The production crew had returned all the belongings they had taken away, and Xi Yu planned to put his things away first.

Besides the butler, the Luo family had quite a few servants. But Xi Yu wasn’t used to having other people handle his belongings.

Luo Cheng’an knew about this habit of his. He took Xi Yu’s backpack and asked Luo Yuan,

“Dad, my brother and I are on the same floor, right?”

The villa had five floors and a spiral staircase, but climbing the stairs wasn’t convenient right now with all their bags. Luo Yuan pressed the elevator button and took the two of them to the third floor.

Hearing Luo Cheng’an’s question, he laughed.

“More than that. Your two rooms are right next to each other.”

Xi Yu stepped out onto the third floor. His pace slowed, and his eyebrows lifted slightly.

Luo Cheng’an had already exclaimed,

“There are only two rooms?”

The enormous third floor had more than a dozen rooms originally. They had been combined until only two rooms remained.

There were solid-wood double doors, one on the left and one on the right. Something was hanging on each door as well.

Xi Yu pointed at the door with the piece of warm jade hanging from it.

“This is mine?”

Luo Cheng’an touched the pure-gold safety lock hanging on the other door and looked eagerly at Shen Qing.

“This is mine, right? It’s mine, right?”

Shen Qing stood at Luo Cheng’an’s doorway while Luo Yuan pushed open Xi Yu’s door.

Inside the two enormous rooms, the decorations, furniture, ceiling chandeliers, and wall paintings were all completely different styles.

The only thing they had in common was that it was obvious everything had been carefully selected.

Even the bouquet of flowers beside the bed still had morning dew clinging to it.

“We personally chose all the furnishings and decorations in here, your father and I,” Shen Qing said, looking at Xi Yu somewhat nervously. “Xiao Yu, do you like it?”

She had raised Luo Cheng’an herself, so she knew exactly what he liked.

But Xi Yu hadn’t grown up by her side. All she could do was try to guess his preferences through their brief interactions.

She was afraid Xi Yu wouldn’t like it.

Afraid that he would resent her because of it.

Xi Yu was her biological son, yet for so many years, she hadn’t fulfilled her responsibilities as a mother.

After Xi Yu returned, she wanted to do everything she could to make up for it. But the child had grown up. And Xi Yu wasn’t as simple-minded as Luo Cheng’an.

There was no way to become close overnight.

Xi Yu walked into the room.

Honestly speaking, aside from Lanxing Hall, this was the room he had seen that suited his tastes the most.

Luxurious without being excessive.

“I really like it. Thank you,” Xi Yu said.

“We’re family. No need to thank us.” Luo Yuan waved his hand, his entire face glowing with happiness. “As long as you like it. As long as you like it.”

Luo Cheng’an looked eagerly at Shen Qing and Luo Yuan.

Shen Qing felt a little disappointed. Xi Yu was still somewhat distant toward them.

But she comforted herself that this was simply Xi Yu’s personality.

Actually, he was still very good to them.

Ever since he came back, he had been helping them. It was only because of him that their family had been able to remain safe and sound.

“Put your things down, then let’s go eat,” Shen Qing said.

Luo Cheng’an’s eyes widened.

“Wait, why did no one ask whether I like it?”

…………………….

Shen Qing rolled her eyes elegantly.

“If you don’t like it, go sleep on the street.”

With that, she took Xi Yu’s hand.

Luo Cheng’an looked at Luo Yuan and complained,

“Dad, look at Mom~”

Luo Yuan said, “Little mouth~”

Luo Cheng’an was mortified.

“How come you learned that from my brother too? I’m going to talk! I’m going to talk!”

“Brother, wait for me! Mom, ask me! Ask me if I like it!”

Shen Qing teased him.

“Little mouth~”

Luo Cheng’an stomped his feet angrily and grabbed Shen Qing’s arm, acting spoiled.

Xi Yu couldn’t help laughing.

The Luo family’s parents really were such wonderful people.

They didn’t treat Luo Cheng’an cautiously because of everything that had happened. Instead, they interacted with him just as they always had.

That was good.

If they had changed the way they treated Luo Cheng’an because of all the things Luo Shujing had confessed, that would have been wrong.

After being reborn once, he had actually been able to experience what a normal family was like.

No.

A truly wonderful family environment.

It felt so good.

He had once…

Once had this too.

His mother had been the gentlest goddess of them all, yet she had been torn apart and devoured by the demon race.

He shouldn’t have needed to envy anyone.

He could have been just like Luo Cheng’an.

Xi Yu lowered his head and rubbed Liuyun.

As if sensing his emotions, Liuyun tightened slightly around his arm, seemingly trying to comfort its master.

Xi Yu’s melancholy lasted only for a moment.

Faced with a table full of delicious dishes that looked, smelled, and tasted wonderful, he became happy again.

Immortals didn’t need to eat, but immortals still had the seven emotions and six desires.

One of those desires was the desire for good food.

And he was no exception.
