That evening, Jiang Nuo returned home.
Si Yan, dressed in silk loungewear, was curled up on the sofa, lost in thought, as if contemplating something very important.
" Si Yan," he called out.
Si Yan immediately turned around, sat up wrapped in the blanket, and reached out to him for a hug, " Nuonuo came home so late today."
He seemed dissatisfied, saying, "Now that Nuonuo is becoming more and more famous, she's busier than me."
Jiang Nuo changed her shoes in the entryway, ran over and hugged the person, then relaxed and lay down on the sofa.
"I wasn't busy filming today; I was picked up by person Number One."
After a long day of running around, Jiang Nuo was exhausted and wanted to sleep as soon as she lay down. She simply hugged the person, closed her eyes, and pretended to doze off, while rambling on about what she had done that day.
"Oh, right, I'm going to repair the Dragon Vein, so I'll be away from home for a few days."
Si Yan's eyes widened. " Nuonuo wants to go too? Why?"
also...?
Jiang Nuo opened her eyes and looked at him, "You're going too?"
Si Yan nodded blankly, then realized what he meant.
I was still thinking about how to explain it to Jiang Nuo.
Now the two of them are on the same itinerary again.
Si Yan was both amused and exasperated. She leaned in and kissed Jiang Nuo's face, making a sticky, affectionate gesture.
" Nuonuo, tell me first, why did you agree to Number One?"
If it were anyone else, after all, it was the Supreme Bureau in Huaxia, and they would go even if they didn't want to. But Si Yan didn't think Jiang Nuo would agree for this reason.
Jiang Nuo thought to herself, "If the Dragon Vein isn't repaired, this world is doomed. I finally got back from that wretched place, and I haven't lived enough yet."
However, 0732 clearly wouldn't let him give that explanation.
Jiang Nuo thought for a moment, then smiled and kissed Si Yan's lips, "Because I have great love in my heart!"
Si Yan: "..."
"That's a lame joke."
"Then just pretend you believe it. Anyway, I can't tell you the truth."
Si Yan pouted, "You're certainly honest."
They weren't willing to come up with a better reason either.
"And what about you? What are you doing?... No, let me guess."
Jiang Nuo stroked Si Yan's cheek, her eyes slightly narrowed. "Could it be a secret mission for a high-ranking member of the Dao Xuan Association?"
Si Yan shook her head.
"No."
"Alright then, I won't guess anymore."
Jiang Nuo leaned against him, continuing to feign sleep with her eyes closed. "You say."
Si Yan pursed his lips. "The spiritual source of the Dragon Vein might be able to suppress the Spiritual Power within me."
"Then... I'll separate the Love Soul from the Spirit-Suppressing Stone and return it to you... Waaah!"
Si Yan clutched her head, looking aggrieved. " Nuonuo... it hurts."
You're stupid!
Jiang Nuo withdrew her hand and pinched his face again. "Just for this reason? The reason is not sufficient at all. It's rejected."
" Nuonuo, listen to me."
Si Yan hugged him and rubbed his forehead against the spot where he had been hit, his cheek almost buried in Jiang Nuo's shoulder.
"The association received a very strange case today. A child has been possessed by a strange spirit. The spirit is ugly, eats human hearts, and says..."
"They said he came from a game world, and because he failed to complete the tasks assigned by the system, he returned here after death."
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt the person in his arms stiffen.
Jiang Nuo opened her eyes, a faint smile in them. " Si Yan, you've tested me many times already."
"You can guess why I'm still testing you."
A wave of sadness and disappointment welled up in Si Yan's heart for no reason. She curled up in Jiang Nuo's arms and said, " Nuonuo, don't talk to me like that."
"My previous investigation was driven by fear."
He reached out and cupped Jiang Nuo's face in his hands, looking up to meet her gaze. "I thought you weren't the Jiang Nuo I knew, but another soul."
"I was afraid you would suddenly leave, so I investigated where you came from."
Jiang Nuo covered his hand, gently biting her fingertip, then nibbling on it. "And now?"
"I want to know what kind of suffering Nuonuo went through in that place that doesn't belong to this world."
Jiang Nuo sighed softly, pushed his fingers away, and hugged Si Yan, kissing and nuzzling him. "It's all in the past, there's nothing to know."
"However... I am quite interested in that person you just mentioned."
Si Yan: "He... he's strange, he seems to hate... no, he's afraid of you."
Fear led to rejection and dislike.
Jiang Nuo lazily hummed in agreement, "It would be strange if I didn't dislike it."
Si Yan added, "A similar case occurred more than ten years ago. The person turned into a monster, just like the ones we see today. Everyone says they died in that place and came back."
"They speculate that there might be a connection between the real world and that place."
"I didn't come back from the dead, don't worry."
Jiang Nuo clearly missed the point, or perhaps she simply didn't want to delve deeper.
The cell phone on the coffee table rang at the same time.
The two exchanged a glance and realized it was their respective agents calling.
Jiang Nuo muttered, "They're quite in sync."
Two minutes later.
"A guest on a dating reality show?"
Si Yan and Jiang Nuo sat up in surprise almost simultaneously.
Si Yan was puzzled. "This dating reality show is always designed to help the guests develop romantic relationships. Nuonuo and I are already together."
Yang Hong on the other end of the phone said, "It's just a guest appearance for one episode. We'll select well-known couples from the entertainment industry to participate, to promote the development of guests on the variety show."
Si Yan thought about it carefully, "A public-funded display of affection!"
Yang Hong: "... You can understand it that way."
Si Yan looked at Jiang Nuo, who looked distressed and said, "Why do we have to work again, Brother Cui..."
Cui Ming: "Hey! Just think of it as you and Si Yan going on a trip to a different place! There are no ghosts in this variety show."
"Travel dating..."
Jiang Nuo's eyes lit up, and when she met Si Yan's gaze, she tilted her head as if asking for his opinion.
So Si Yan agreed first, "Okay, I'll participate."
Jiang Nuo immediately responded to Cui Ming, "Okay, okay, I'll go too!"
"Okay, you guys go online later and check out Weibo."
