Hua Jian never talked about what happened under the pool .
Ming Shu asked him once and he didn’t answer . After that Ming Shu stopped asking him and just laid in his room and ate her snacks .
Lu Jiu came in twice . During the second time, Hua Jian left with Lu Jiu and when he got back, it was already nighttime .
Hua Jian opened the door of the office and immediately saw the little girl lying on the sofa . She had fallen asleep while hugging a bag of snacks .
Hua Jian lowered his noise and walked to her side . He lowered his head and looked at her for a monet . Then, he carried her up .
“What are you doing?” The little girl’s voice sounded . There was no sleepiness in her voice and she even grabbed her snacks tightly .
“Go home . ” Hua Jian didn’t release her and just replied indifferently .
Ming Shu didn’t say anything . She leaned on his chest . Hua Jian couldn’t see her expression too .
Hua Jian carried her out . There was already no one outside . Only the reception was still at work . When the reception saw Hua Jian carrying Ming Shu out, his expression turned weird . After that, he looked down as though he didn’t see anything .
When they were downstairs, they saw Lu Jiu . Lu Jiu was shoceked at first . “Boss, are you going back?”
“Yes, hurry up and get the registration out . ” Hua Jian replied calmly . He didn’t give any strange expression just because he was carrying Ming Shu .
Lu Jiu nodded . “What about that An Zhiling?”
“Get her a job and observe her for now . ”
Ming Shu raised her head slightly . Did they know of her abilities already? Ming Shu thought about it . The female protagonist seemed to be from the Evil Spirit Office too…
Lu Jiu watched as Hua Jian and Ming Shu leave . He stratched his head . “Boss treats this demon differently…”
Not only did An Zhiling started work at the Evil Spirit Office, Ming Shu started work there also . She was unwilling to do it at first but when she saw the benefits in the contract, she relented .
After all, she was poor .
But…
Ming Shu looked at her identity information that she just got . She slammed it on Hua Jian’s desk . “Why are you my guardian?”
I have lived for so long already . Why do I need you as my guardian?
Hua Jian explained calmly, “you age needs a guardian . ”
Ming Shu pushed against the table and smile . “Can’t you give me a different age?”
Hua Jian started talking nonsense, “an adult identity is harder . ”
Of course, I did it so that I can be close with you .
If not, who will want to be your guardian?
All villain lack love . I will not argue with an idiot .
Ming Shu’s smile got brighter . ” Are you kidding me? Do you mean that you just keep accepting adolescent demons? Are adult demons all dead?”
“Yes . ” All dead . Whatever . I am not the one that died .
Ming Shu: “…”
Ming Shu took some snacks to calm herself down . Why is this little demon so composed?
Ming Shu walked out of the office and welcomed everyone’s gaze . An Zhiling walked over from the side and looked at her cautiously . “Erm, Lu Jiu said that we are in charge of tidying the documents . ”
For the past few days, An Zhiling broke down due to the death of her friends but she has gotten better over these few days . Distress and sadness only lasted for a while . A living person should always looked forward .
“Oh . ” But I want to eat snacks .
If I don’t work, there will be no snacks…
Ming Shu admitted defeat and went to tidy the documents with An Zhiling .
“Jian Ying, why do you think captain wants to keep Tao Xi? And that An Zhiling . She is just a normal person . Do we have no requirements for hiring people?”
Jian Ying shook her head . “I don’t know . Maybe the captain has his own plans . ”
Jian Ying looked at Ming Shu and An Zhiling . Viciousness appeared in her eyes .
“Sigh, seriously . Why is the captain treating Tao Xi so nicely…” There were many woman in the office which likes Hua Jian . They were in envy and jealous of Tao Xi .
Jian Ying looked at the direction of the office . The office was transparent . The man was standing by the window and making a call . Although she could only see his side profile, it was still so attractive .
Jian Ying gipped the pen in her hand tightly . She didn’t hear anything the person beside her said .
An Zhiling was serious with her work . She listened to other people well too .
“You are called Tao Xi right?” An Zhiling arranged the documents while talking to Ming Shu, “my name is An Zhiling . ”
“Yes . ”
An Zhiling looked at Ming Shu . She leaned over, “why can’t I tell that you are a demon?”
At Wan Yue village, she got the ability to see everyone’s information on top of their head . If they were humans, there would be a human written on them . However, if they were demons, theyr information would be listed out such as what their true form was, how long have they lived…
But for this person, she couldn’t see anything . There was no human sign too .
Just like the man… that suddenly appeared in her house .
“Maybe I am too pretty . ” Ming Shu smiled . “Also, didn’t Lu Jiu tell you to not anyhow say things out?”
An Zhiling stunned for three seconds before understanding what she said .
Lu Jiu had warned her against speaking of her ability .
An Zhiling lowered her head and didn’t dare to talk anymore . She arranged the documents quickly .
An Zhiling was still going to school so she didn’t spend much time in office . She could only come once or twice every week . Also, Lu Jiu didn’t plan to give her much work to do . However, this caused people in the office to be unhappy .
“An Zhiling, didn’t I ask you to put this document in the red cabinet? Why did you put it in the blue cabinet?”
A long-hair lady slammed a document in front of An Zhiling and looked down on her . She said sarcastically, “since you are so busy everyday, why are you still here? You can’t even do such a simple thing . ”
An Zhiling was puzzled, “I…”
“Why? do you still want to argue with me?” The lady interrupted An Zhiling . “Who gave you the face to not admit your mistakes?”
“Mengjie, don’t talk so much . She just came . She is not familiar yet . ” Jian Ying came from behind and pulled the lady . She persuaded her, “our work is a bit complicated . She needs time to settle down . You should pardon her . ”
Mengjie sneered . “Of course she is not familiar . Ever since she started work here, how many days has she came? What does she think this place is? Since she is here, she should have the responsibilty . How can I trust her and pass my work to her?”
“Okay okay, she just came . ” Jian Ying patted Mengjie’s shoulder and appeared to be consoling An Zhiling, “Zhiling, take care of it the next time . Although arranging the documents wrongly is a small matter, but if you make a mistake next time, it would create a lot of trouble . After all, this is not a normal place . ”
Jian Ying seemed to be comforting An Zhiling but in actual, she was telling her that she neglected her work . If something happens next time, it would be her fault and they would only blame her .
An Zhiling didn’t have the chance to explain herself . Her face was red as she just stood there . She apologized cautiously, “I am sorry…”
“Tao Xi!”
Mengjie exploded again . She called Ming Shu who was almost floating passed them .
Ming Shu turned her head . She gave a small smile . “Why, do you want to bully me too?”
Mengjie: “…”
Mengjie said angrily, “what do you mean by bully you? Have you finished your job? Why are you leaving office again!”
