It's already past six o'clock now, and Xu Jing and Zhang Xinyu are probably awake by now.
I called Xu Jing and Zhang Xinyu respectively and said that I had something to discuss. They both agreed and made an appointment to meet.
For this kind of matter, it is better to have an interview. After all, I have to hand over the jade pendant to the two of them.
Xu Jing's home is close, her home is near No. 5 Middle School, so she said on the phone that she could come down and meet her soon.
We arranged to meet at the gate of No. 5 Middle School. Ye Yuyou and I found an open-air stall selling soy milk and fried dough sticks for breakfast near No. 5 Middle School.
About twenty minutes later, Xu Jing called.
"Ye Yan, I've arrived at No. 5 Middle School, where are you?"
"Ah, it's so fast. Ye Yuyou and I are having breakfast. Please wait for me for a while, and we'll be there soon."
"No need, you eat your food first, and I'll go find you. Where are you now?"
"Isn't there an animation peripheral store near No. 5 Middle School? Turn right from that store and there is an open-air stall selling soy milk and fried dough sticks about a hundred meters away. Do you know this place?"
"I know, I know this place very well, I'll go find you right now."
Five minutes later, a pretty girl walked over from a distance.
"Xu Jing!" Ye Yuyou stood up and waved in the direction of Xu Jing. After Xu Jing saw Ye Yuyou waving, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and then she walked quickly in our direction. .
"Do you want me to have breakfast?" Xu Jing came over, pulled up a stool, and sat next to us.
"Of course. Here, it's all ready for you." Ye Yuyou pointed at the table and said.
Xu Jing was not pretentious. She picked up a fried cake, took a bite, and said vaguely: "What does Ye Yan want from me?"
I watched Xu Jing swallow the fried cake and said with a smile: "I have something to tell you. I will give you this jade pendant first."
"This is?"
So I repeated what the girl in white said earlier.
"Xu Jing, do you want to live a peaceful life in the future, or continue on like us? No matter which path you choose, we respect your choice!" I said seriously.
Xu Jing put down the fried cake, wiped her hands, touched the crystal clear jade pendant, and then fell into thinking.
Ye Yuyou and I were not in a hurry, just eating breakfast and waiting for Xu Jing's reply.
After about two minutes, Xu Jing said: "Ye Yan, maybe power will make people intoxicated, maybe power will make people thirsty, but on the way to pursue power, you will definitely encounter countless life and death crises, maybe one will not..." Be careful, you will die in the next second."
"Rather than pursuing power, I want to live a peaceful life. I just want to be safe with Zhang Hao and spend high school and college life peacefully. Then I can graduate, find a job, and be a housewife in the future." , husband and godson... spend the rest of your life peacefully..."
"So, I choose the first path." Xu Jing looked at me seriously and said.
"Yeah." I nodded, and then said with a smile: "Zhang Hao, I really don't know what to say about him. I'm so lucky to have found such a good girlfriend like you."
Hearing this, a blush appeared on Xu Jing's beautiful face.
Xu Jing is quite thin-skinned, after all, she is only fifteen years old, so I stopped teasing her, and said seriously: "In this case, Xu Jing, then you put this jade pendant away and wear it with you at all times, except for some Except for taking it off on special occasions, don't forget to wear it at ordinary times. Also, don't release ghost energy, and stop practicing ghost energy..."
"Yeah, I understand." Xu Jing nodded and said, "I didn't plan to practice ghost energy in the first place, so don't worry, thank you, Ye Yan, Yu You."
Although we met because of the jade pendant, we still had a lot to talk about when old classmates met, so we chatted for a while again.
"Xu Jing, where did you report?" Ye Yuyou asked.
"Ninth Middle School." Xu Jing replied: "Haohao also applied there. If nothing else happens..." At this point, Xu Jing blushed again: "Our high school should also be the same school."
"Wow."
I whistled briskly on the side.
Ninth Middle School is also a provincial key school, but it was just promoted from a city key point to a provincial key point four years ago. In fact, the Ninth Middle School is still a good school, but it is still a bit poor with Xu Jing, because Xu Jing’s grades are still good in the class. Yes, if she wanted to take the exam, the fifth middle school would not be a problem. Xu Jing applied for the ninth middle school, but she probably still wanted to go to the same school as Zhang Hao. Compared with Xu Jing, Zhang Hao's grades were still a bit worse.
We chatted for half an hour before parting ways, and it was almost the time we had made an appointment with Zhang Xinyu.
"Then I'm going home." Xu Jing waved to us.
"Be careful on the road."
After Ye Yuyou and I paid the bill, we walked towards our home. Because Zhang Xinyu's home is quite close to our home, we made an appointment to meet at a nearby KFC at 8:30.
We arrived at KFC first and took a seat.
Although we have already had breakfast, it seems a bit inappropriate if we order nothing and occupy someone else's seat in vain. Moreover, Zhang Xinyu may not have had breakfast yet, so it is always good to order something.
What's more, we now have a small amount of money in our pockets, and this little money is not a problem!
After our orders were served, Zhang Xinyu opened the door.
"You came at the right time." I glared at him and said fiercely: "Just in time for dinner!" Having said that, I still helped Zhang Xinyu pull out the chair next to him.
"Hey, there's actually something to eat. I just didn't have breakfast." Zhang Xinyu smiled and shamelessly picked up a burger! After unpacking, he took a bite and while eating, he said shamelessly: "You came out to me just to treat me to a meal? That's funny!"
"Damn, you're quite thick-skinned!" I rolled my eyes at him and said, "Ahem, tell me something serious and listen carefully."
"Okay, you tell me." Zhang Xinyu ate hungrily, as if he was reincarnated by a starving ghost. He didn't know how long it had been since he had eaten.
As before, I repeated it again, but because I had already told Xu Jing once, I had experience this time and explained the whole thing more clearly. As the saying goes, practice makes perfect.
"What, you went to take the commission and you didn't call me?" Zhang Xinyu shouted, spitting a bunch of crumbs on my face.
"Spray my face..."
I glanced at Zhang Xinyu resentfully, then patted the crumbs on my face and said, "Aren't we just standing in front of each other? It's my first time to accept a commission. Who knows if it's dangerous or not, and I don't know what your attitude is." Ah, are you going to choose to take away the jade pendant and live the rest of your life peacefully, or are you going to choose to be like us?"
"Of course it's the latter!" Zhang Xinyu said without hesitation: "To hell with the peaceful life! Becoming stronger is better than anything else. At least no one dares to bully me. Only when my strength improves will I feel at ease!"
"...Have you considered?"
"Think about it!" Zhang Xinyu nodded vigorously.
"..."
"Have you really thought about it? Are you sure?" I confirmed again.
"Absolutely and definitely." Zhang Xinyu answered word by word and seriously.
I looked directly at Zhang Xinyu and saw that his determined eyes were full of fighting spirit. After a long silence, I nodded and said, "I understand."
Although I want Zhang Xinyu to spend the rest of his life in peace, I respect Zhang Xinyu's choice.
"Yes." Zhang Xinyu nodded and said, "Ye Yan, when will you receive another commission?"
"Tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." I thought for a moment and said, "Because I just picked up one yesterday."
"Then you can help me make introductions when the time comes. I also want to join the Ghost Slayer Club."
"Well, then next time I receive a commission, I will inform you in advance and we will go to No. 8 Middle School together."
"OK."
"Then we won't be able to use this jade pendant. I have to return the jade pendant to Brother Liuliu and the others." I took the jade pendant back from the table and put it away.
This jade pendant is too precious. I dare not delay. I must return it to the girl in white as soon as possible. If it is lost and broken, I will blame myself to death.
"Yeah." Zhang Xinyu nodded.
"I'll leave you to deal with these things on the table. We've already had breakfast, so we won't eat any more." Ye Yuyou and I stood up.
"Don't worry, leave it to me!"
I put the jade pendant away, and then left the KFC with Ye Yuyou. Before leaving, Ye Yuyou secretly took away a chicken wing. This girl is really greedy!
Zhang Xinyu took a sip of Coke, then looked at the two retreating figures outside the door. After a while, he murmured.
"Idiot, how can I just watch you take risks alone."
...
The jade pendant had to be returned immediately, so Ye Yuyou and I immediately walked in the direction of Yangcheng No. 8 Middle School. Just halfway through, we heard my cell phone ring.
I looked down at the screen and saw that the caller was Lin Wei...
