What if you were targeted by a cool and aloof beauty?

“…” An Chen looked at her seriously, his expression not like he was joking.

"Oh...right, is the car almost here?" Jiuge stammered, poking An Chen's pocket.

"Let me see." An Chen decided not to tease Jiu Ge any further.

Everything should be done in moderation.

"There's still one kilometer left, and the driver is at the intersection." He was starting to regret ordering a ride online.

Just as An Chen picked up his phone to check the distance again, two empty taxis sped past, honking their horns at him and Jiu Ge.

"Mmm." Jiuge leaned closer to An Chen's phone, afraid that An Chen would continue talking about the previous topic.

"Oh, right." Suddenly, An Chen turned around abruptly.

"W-what's wrong?" Jiuge was so frightened that she took a few steps back.

“I saw Hua Zhijian at school, he’s Hua Zi.” An Chen suddenly remembered this.

He could no longer sense Hua Zhijian's presence while the meeting was in progress.

Because he felt the potential danger had temporarily disappeared, An Chen forgot about it for a moment.

"Is he from our school? No... or did he transfer here?" Jiuge frowned every day, feeling that something was not quite right.

In China, transferring to another university is extremely difficult.

It's fair to say that out of ten people who want to transfer schools, ten will not be able to do so.

If it weren't for her family's strong connections, she wouldn't have been able to transfer.

"What is he doing at our school?" Jiuge asked, tugging at her hair, her face full of confusion.

During the school term, it is difficult for students' parents to come in, let alone students from other schools.

“He’s here to see his girlfriend,” An Chen said, glancing at his phone screen again.

The driver was still slowly making his way forward at a snail's pace.

"He has a girlfriend?" Jiuge opened her mouth.

"Has he abandoned the previous curly-haired spirit?" She looked incredulous.

“Judging from his words, the curly-haired spirit is his girlfriend.” An Chen pinched Jiu Ge’s cheek.

He only let go when Jiuge's brows stopped furrowing.

"Oh, oh." Jiuge touched her face tenderly.

Although An Chen didn't use much force.

"Wait, how did you manage to talk to him? Did he come looking for you? And isn't he supposed to be unable to see that female spirit?" The next second, she realized the problem.

“Yeah, so it’s weird. He found out through the curly-haired spirit that you and I saved him, and he also told me that the curly-haired girl was a student at the fake capital university, and he insisted that I hid his girlfriend.” An Chen leaned against the wall and raised his chin.

"What? You hid the curly-haired spirit?" Jiuge's reading comprehension went awry again.

“No, that’s just his wild guess,” An Chen denied immediately.

"Don't focus on strange points." He took Jiuge's hand and squeezed it gently.

"So the strange things are that the curly-haired spirit disappeared, she knew about both of us, Hua Zi could recognize you, his girlfriend is from our school, and she even suspects that you hid the spirit."

Jiuge licked her lips and began to analyze the situation seriously again.

Ugh, how terrifying, especially the fact that my girlfriend is from a fake university.

"Drip drip!"

A white private car stopped in front of the two of them.

“Yes, and he was very cold.” An Chen led Jiu Ge into the car.

"Speaking of which, I don't know why, but you're also very cold right now, like you just went into a freezer." Jiu Ge tilted her head and said something that sent chills down An Chen's spine.

Chapter 257 Come on, open your mouth (Seeking monthly tickets and subscriptions)

"Meow meow meow meow?"

As soon as An Chen and Jiu Ge arrived home, Nai Tang frowned and jumped onto An Chen's shoulder.

"Meow meow meow meow? Hmm? Aww? Ah?" It kept sniffing An Chen's scent.

While sniffing, it also made all sorts of sounds.

"So that's what it can be called?" Jiuge took the milk candy off An Chen and put it on the ground.

It makes meowing, grunting, howling, and ah-like noises. If you scare it, it might even let out a "wah!" sound.

She touched Milk Candy's little paws and noticed that the paw pads Milk Candy had touched An Chen's had become icy cold.

Jiuge frowned.

An Chen's unusual body temperature was clearly not just her imagination.

“Cats can make many sounds, but they usually choose the sounds that humans like best.” An Chen smiled and sat down on the sofa.

He took out his phone and glanced at the new notification in the class group chat.

In no time, the phone became ice-cold.

"Wow! Old Wu!" Upon hearing this, Naitang obliged and shouted at the top of her lungs.

"Yes, that's it. I have indeed heard stray cats meowing when they're in heat. It sounds really creepy." Jiuge squatted down and tapped Naitang's head, then stood up and touched An Chen's hand.

It was very cold and icy, like it had just come out of an ice cellar.

After a moment of hesitation, she took the kettle and went to the kitchen.

Listening to the hissing sound of the kettle boiling water, Jiuge thought of the heat emanating from Zhang Zhidong.

If Zhang Zhidong were to stay at An Chen's house for a few days, would An Chen be able to return to normal?

"Should I call Zhang Zhidong over to give it a try?" Jiuge pushed open the kitchen door and asked An Chen, who was resting with his eyes closed on the sofa.

After realizing something was wrong when she got on the bus, she cast many spells on An Chen from her seat.

Whether it's breaking a curse, purifying, or healing.

They tried everything they could think of and used, but An Chen's condition did not improve at all.

As time went on, the coldness on his body actually intensified.

Jiuge also considered contacting Hua Zhijian.

However, when the two returned to the community, An Chen could no longer sense Hua Zhijian's presence.

It was as if they had vanished into thin air.

Even if you find Hua Zhijian's phone number in the association and call it, it will show as a disconnected number.

"Ninety-nine percent of the time it's useless, and it'll just make them worry unnecessarily," An Chen sighed.

Hua Zhijian is now in a state of mental dementia and half-dead, and has even disappeared...

It's really strange that I ended up like this after just chatting with the other person and touching their arm.

It didn't seem like a curse or anything like that; it was just like how Zhang Zhidong could radiate heat, and the spirit would feel a little cool.

He straightened up and touched the sofa.

Fortunately, the sofa leather only got a little cold, and nothing else strange happened.

Even so, the thought of spirits gave An Chen a terrifying idea.

Place your hand over your heart.

Currently, he can still feel his heartbeat.

"Meow..." Milk Candy jumped onto the sofa and leaned against An Chen.

Fortunately, it's not quite autumn yet. Even though it's next to An Chen, it only feels like the air conditioning is on again at home.

"Are you starting to feel unwell?..." Jiu Ge glanced at An Chen uneasily a few times.

She poured the boiling water into a cup and carried the plate back to the sofa.

"Thank you." An Chen picked up the cup and prepared to drink.

"Wait, it's still boiling water." Jiuge's eyes widened, and she reached out to stop An Chen.

But the next second, the water in An Chen's hand had turned into lukewarm water.

"Shall we go find Hua Zhijian? He's the one who infected you, right?" Seeing An Chen's condition, Jiu Ge couldn't help but feel uneasy.

“Or come with me to the association hospital in a few days. Dr. Frog happens to be seeing patients for a day next week.” She touched An Chen’s face, her brows furrowing even more.

Even my face felt icy cold...

"Don't worry too much, it shouldn't be a big problem in the short term. I'll have Qin Ye go see Hua Zhijian tonight. If he's at school, we'll go there directly. There's always a way. If all else fails, we'll go see the Frog Doctor you mentioned."

As he spoke, An Chen squeezed Jiu Ge's hand.

Jiuge's hands are warm, but the temperature drops sharply after a short contact with me.

He let go and moved back a little.

Seeing this, Jiuge also moved closer to An Chen and reached out to hold his hand.

"Won't he die?" She held An Chen's hand and blew on it, but the effect was almost negligible.

An Chen's hands were still as cold as if they had been frozen for a long time.

Jiuge has been well taken care of since she was a child.

Although she is thin, she rarely gets sick because she has always been well-nourished.

Even if the butler accidentally falls ill, he will definitely contact the genius doctor known as "Doctor Frog".

No matter how serious or minor the illness, the frog doctor can always find a way to cure it.

"No, and there's Meng Ninghua too. We can ask her for help then. There are always plenty of solutions," An Chen reassured him after a moment's thought.

"Mmm." Jiuge nodded.

After letting go of An Chen's hand, she ran to the kitchen and took out the entire kettle.
