You Have a New Job (Continued)

Fu Hua spoke dryly, trying to look away to avoid losing his composure.

Fu Hua slams her hand on the table again.

"How dare you! I, the mighty Immortal Crimson Heron, invincible throughout the world, how could I possibly Inner Demon!?"

"If Ji Lin has Inner Demon, why can't Crimson Kite have them too?"

"Ji..."

[Fu Hua] almost blurted out in his excitement, but quickly swallowed it back.

She looked at A-Lin, who was staring blankly, and then at Ji Lin, who was fast asleep. She couldn't say anything bad about him, and she couldn't say anything bad about him either.

After hesitating for a long time, Fu Hua said tentatively:

Even if... even if you say that...

"How could the dignified Immortal Crimson Heron, who resides in Great Void Mountain, be so easily infiltrated into his home and impersonated? Besides Inner Demon, can you explain the current situation?"

It's been set up; Fu Hua has been set up.

She was, of course, proud and confident, so she could only follow this line of thought, scratching her head in bewilderment:

"That seems to be true. I've been staying here the whole time, and no one has ever been able to sneak into our house. Apart from Inner Demon, there's really no other way to explain your appearance..."

"So it's Inner Demon."

Fu Hua forcefully drew a conclusion.

As for which is the Inner Demon and which is the true self, that's a matter of opinion.

Fu Hua didn't seem completely convinced. Although she couldn't refute it, she instinctively tried to find a flaw and stammered:

"But... but..."

"No buts. It's almost dawn, let's hurry up and prepare dinner. Everyone's been up all night, you don't want to see Xiaoxuan, A-Lin, and Ji Lin go hungry, do you?"

"Oh right, right, hurry up and cook! Especially Ji Lin, she's hiding in a corner crying late at night, grieving over some trivial thing like whether she's a demon or not. Sigh, what a fool. Xiaoxuan, you should quickly make her a good, nourishing meal."

"She cried?"

Fu Hua said in surprise.

Immediately, Fu Hua, Cang Xiaoxuan, and A-Lin exchanged glances, and they vaguely understood the answer to one of their previous guesses.

'If A-Lin is human, then Ji Lin is a demon.'

'The distinction between human and demon is no longer important. Ji Lin is Ji Lin; what kind of person she is needs no further explanation.'

Aside from the fact that Fu Hua's hostility towards her had lessened considerably, this incident had no other impact.
