Yes, this was the first time she had ever eaten so unrestrainedly and unconventionally in front of Gu Yuqiu.

"Um……"

As Su Yan thought about these things, she suddenly felt a little annoyed.

Her gaze fell on Gu Yuqiu's front, looking at the exceptionally clean plate. She frowned slightly and asked, "So you didn't eat anything at all?"

Gu Yuqiu nodded, then shook her head, and said, "I ate quite a lot of vegetables."

Three lettuce leaves and four mushrooms, that makes a total of seven, which is quite a lot, isn't it?

"Eating hot pot but not eating meat..."

Su Yan sighed inwardly, feeling quite helpless, and then said, "Shall I make you some noodles?"

Gu Yuqiu had no habit of compromising herself, so she simply hummed in agreement.

Su Yan got up and walked towards the kitchen, saying, "You need to tidy up that table."

"Need not."

Gu Yuqiu said, "There are people who specialize in this."

Su Yan stopped and turned her head to look at her with some surprise, saying, "I remember you don't like strangers touching your private parts, right?"

"Shen Muchan is not a stranger."

Gu Yuqiu's tone was natural, or rather, matter-of-fact.

Su Yan was silent for a moment, then asked, "Has Shen Hong been working as your maid here all these days?"

"Yes."

Gu Yuqiu casually said, "It's just that she's not very competent. If I had paid her to come, I would have fired her long ago. She's clumsy and inefficient."

Su Yan thought to herself, how could she possibly be willing to be a maid?

More importantly, who in this world, besides you, is worthy of Crimson's service?

Su Yan suddenly asked, "So how do you plan to resolve her issue?"

The "she" in this sentence refers, of course, to Crimson.

As for what it was, what else could it be but that life-or-death battle?

"Since I promised her, there's no way I can go back on my word."

Gu Yuqiu said, "Just beat her one more time."

Su Yan asked, "Not kill her?"

Why did you kill her?

Gu Yuqiu countered, "From beginning to end, she was the one who was thinking about me, while I have never suffered any loss at her hands. Is it necessary to kill her?"

Su Yan said, "If Xinglu heard you say that, she would definitely be furious."

In tonight's final battle, others may not see the details, but she certainly will.

Therefore, she knew very well that apart from Stardew being beheaded, the Antichrist, the Twin Serpents, and the Calamity had all been defeated with great dignity.

At least Gu Yuqiu didn't hold him by the head and use him as a lamp.

Why should I care what a crazy woman thinks of me?

Gu Yuqiu found this statement rather strange and said, "Even if I were a man now, a madwoman like Xinglu wouldn't be interested."

Su Yan raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "In many people's eyes, I am also a madman."

Gu Yuqiu said, "Since we two lunatics are together, is there any special allowance we can get?"

"you……"

Su Yan couldn't help but sigh and said, "I really don't know where you get all these strange things from."

After saying that, she realized that she had sighed too many times that night, which was very unusual.

I don't know if these sighs are out of helplessness or something else.

Without trying to figure it out, she went into the kitchen before Gu Yuqiu could speak again and began preparing a hearty bowl of noodles.

Gu Yuqiu watched her back for a while, then turned around and went back to the living room, sitting on the sofa as usual.

But tonight was different. She picked up the unfinished book that was lying to the side, wanting to start reading from the bookmark, but found that she had lost the mood and could no longer read.

Even mahjong, which she usually enjoys immensely, lost its former appeal after only managing one and a half rounds, and she had to give up out of boredom.

This lack of enthusiasm wasn't because Su Yan hadn't finished cooking the bowl of noodles and was starting to feel hungry, but rather a very real problem.

After she passed away, who should inherit what she left behind?

To put it another way, she was thinking about how to distribute her inheritance.

Now it seems that Lin Mushi has undoubtedly received the greatest share, but this legacy is too heavy, and she is not a particularly smart person, so the road ahead may not be easy.

Shen Muchan and she were acquaintances. These past few days, whether out of anger or other reasons, she had done her job as a maid diligently and deserved recognition.

Next comes the pine syrup.

As her only comrade-in-arms in this life, cats are naturally inclined to knead and are difficult to tame, but Songtang has accompanied her for so long without hesitation, coming all the way from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, without ever having any real regrets.

No matter what, she had to leave something good for Songtang, otherwise she would feel guilty in her next life.

Finally, there's Su Yan.

The only person she admired and liked in her life, whom she then became a stranger to, whom she thought would remain strangers for life, is now sitting with her again.

However, she didn't think about Su Yan for long.

The reason is simple.

She has given her the most precious affection, and that is the best, incomparable to anything else.

Just as she was about to finish thinking about these things, a voice came and interrupted her.

"It's ready, come over quickly."

Su Yan called out to her, "Eat it while it's hot, don't just sit there like an idiot!"

Gu Yuqiu was slightly taken aback, then laughed.

I'll leave again next late spring.

These worries can be dealt with next year.

Right?

……

……

As night deepened, the long street was covered in snow.

Shen Muchan left the barbecue restaurant, took the white cat off her head, and held it in her arms as usual.

The special agents had already opened their umbrellas and were waiting for her.

"No."

She waved her hand, signaling the man to move aside, and said, "Let Lu Xiu come see me."

The agent responded and immediately dialed the number without hesitation.

Songtang looked up at her, her eyes slightly cold, thinking, "What are you trying to do now?"

"I'm not an idiot."

Shen Muchan walked through the wind and snow and said, "Of course, it's not about joining forces to deal with your master."

When she said this, she didn't try to lower her voice; even with the wind trying to mask it, it still clearly reached the ears of everyone around her.

Songtang meowed, as if to say, "So what are you trying to do?"

Shen Muchan said, "Please ask him to do something for me."

Songtang was even more puzzled, wondering what Lu Xiu could possibly do to help her.

Shen Muchan did not answer the question.

Thirteen minutes later, when her shoulders and hair were covered in snowflakes, and she had turned white-haired along with the white cat, Lu Xiu finally finished his work and came to the long street.

It was late at night. Xinchu is a city that developed in the 1980s. There are no traces of old history, and you can't find any Western-style buildings. All you can see are modern high-rise buildings.

The white light of the streetlights reflected the falling snow, creating a feeling of tranquility and solitude rather than eeriness.

"What is it?"

Looking at the girl walking in the snow, Lu Xiu said seriously, "I'm very busy right now, please don't cause me any more trouble."

Shen Muchan didn't look at him, but put her hands behind her back and said, "I have a grudge against Gu Yuqiu."

Lu Xiu was speechless, thinking to himself that this nonsense was truly astounding.

Who in this world doesn't know that you and she have a grudge?

Just like when a person is getting ready to sleep, they naturally walk towards the bed.

"Today, I diverted your attention and got the Pope to go directly to the Special Affairs Bureau; that was her idea."

Shen Muchan said indifferently, "This is the content of my deal with her."

Lu Xiu frowned, wondering why he was telling him all this.

"And what I got from her was..."

Shen Muchan glanced at him and said with a smile, "An opportunity to kill her."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Xiu was stunned.

He had considered many possibilities, but he never expected things to turn out this way. Yet, he felt it was perfectly reasonable, the only logic that was both unexpected and logical.

Given Crimson's temperament, it's impossible for him to be afraid of death when facing his enemies.

He had never understood why Shen Hong was willing to help Gu Yuqiu, and this was the reason he hadn't considered this point.

"If, and I mean if."

He looked at Crimson and said slowly, "This is your own business. The Special Affairs Bureau has no intention of interfering. I can speak on behalf of the Director on this matter."
