Half a month later.
Chen Yu looked up from the piles of books, fumbled on the desk for a long time before finding her cell phone under a lecture notebook, which had a message just sent to her.
Lou Ming: Shall I pick you up after class?
Chen Yu: Okay, (*^__^*) hee-hee…
After replying to the message, Chen Yu looked at the time and found that it was already two o’clock in the afternoon. After reading the notes in front of her that seemed to be impossible to finish, she scratched her hair irritably and let out a whimper.
Chen Yu’s leaves this semester were too long, and there was only a month left for the final exam. This directly caused her to plunge into the ocean of learning without having time to do anything after returning from Qingmang Mountain.
No, before studying, she did do one thing. As soon as her spiritual power recovered, she went to the Underworld with Lou Ming to visit Elder Wu.
Unfortunately, they were not able to see Elder Wu’s soul. All they heard was Elder Wu’s legend.
The original words of the legend teller, Xiang Nan, were like this: “The ghost that Niu Tou and Ma Mian captured and brought to the Underworld three days ago was your grandfather, right? He’s called Wu Li. He has not yet reincarnated, but you can not see him. He came to the Underworld and offended Mingwang on the first day.
Chen Yu has always known that Elder Wu was fond of tricking people, but to her surprise, he even trapped himself: “How did he offend Mingwang?”
“It is said that he acted frivolously toward Mingwang’s daughter.” Xiang Nan said cautiously, “I heard that if it were not for your grandfather’s great merit, if he were someone else, Mingwang would have let his soul scatter there and then.”
“Mingwang’s daughter?” Chen Yu exclaimed incredulously, “The old man is too old for it.”
“It’s true. Everyone in the Underworld knows it. A new ghost named Wu Li set his eyes on Mingwang’s daughter on the grounds of his merit,” Xiang Nan confirmed.
“Then…” Chen Yu stammered, “Then did Mingwang detain him?”
“Not at all. It’s only because your grandfather is in the Underworld, he can not return to the River of Forgetfulness without the special pass approved by Mingwang, so you will not be able to see him,” Xiang Nan explained.
So just like that, Chen Yu and Lou Ming’s trip was in vain. When they left the Underworld, Chen Yu specifically instructed Xiang Nan that once there was news of Elder Wu, he would immediately send a message to her, so that she could rush to the Underworld as soon as possible.
This wait lasted two weeks. To this day, Chen Yu still hadn’t received any news about Elder Wu from the Underworld, but some gossip in the Underworld would always abound from time to time, informing her that Elder Wu was still in the Underworld causing ruckus here and there.
Chen Yu collected the review materials on the table, picked two of them to review over the weekend, and carried the rest back to the dormitory. Today was Friday, so she had a class later. After the class, she could go straight home for the weekend.
When Chen Yu returned to the dormitory, her three roommates, who were particularly careful about their image outside and completely liberated their nature when they returned to the dormitory, were frantically fighting for something. Moreover, there was a faint scent in the air.
“What are you guys eating?” Chen Yu put the book on the desk and asked suspiciously.
“Shishi, you’re back?” The three people didn’t even have time to wipe the residue on their mouths. After giving Chen Yu a glance, they went back to grabbing something.
“What’s so delicious? Look at how you guys are fighting over it.” Chen Yu was curious and walked over.
“Hahaha, the last piece is mine,” Fang Feifei shouted happily.
“The fattest one is also you.” Han You retorted, disgruntled.
Chen Yu glanced at the box on the table and recognized it: “Sufang Pavilion’s dim sum. Although this restaurant’s dim sum is delicious, you don’t have to fight over it to this extent.”
“Shishi.” Zhang Muwan came over and put her arm around Chen Yu’s shoulders. “Do you often eat the dim sum from this restaurant?”
“Yes, ah.” Because the dim sum of her Third Brother’s family was basically from this restaurant, Chen Yu could often eat it.
“Oh My Gosh.” Fang Feifei made a gesture of holding Chen Yu’s thigh. “Shishi, let me hug your thigh.”
“Say, what exactly is the identity of your boyfriend?” Han You also approached her. “Is he the young proprietor of Sufang Pavilion?”
