Song Jie knew that the Qingtian Hunter Agency wouldn't allow him to exploit a loophole, so he kept those thoughts to himself.
Old Bao slowly said, "Since someone has entrusted our Qingtian Hunter Agency to protect you, you might encounter danger during this period."
Mo Fan had already received Tang Yue's notification before arriving, so he knew that the Black Vatican was going to make a move against him and Song Jie.
"How about this—Lingling, call Dasheng and the others back. The two of them will be protected by your team," Old Bao instructed.
"Okay!" Lingling nodded obediently. Both Song Jie and Mo Fan were her companions; she didn't want anything bad to happen to them.
After discussing a few matters with Lingling and the others, Song Jie left the Qingtian Hunter Agency.
When he returned home, Li Rui informed him that they were already taking action and that Fu Tianming and Jia Wenqing were both under surveillance.
Song Jie told Li Rui that if they made contact with anyone, she should inform him immediately.
After a brief conversation, they ended the call.
Song Jie was certain that Mu Yuang would soon contact Jia Wenqing and Fu Tianming.
By then, he could simply lie in wait and let them walk right into his trap.
As long as he could control Mu Yuang, he could use Little Hei to track down that Blue Deacon.
At that point, wouldn't the 120 million reward be within easy reach?
Surely, the Black Vatican would never expect him to have such a counterplan!
Therefore, Little Hei was the most crucial link in his entire strategy.
However, all of this was still just a plan. Whether it would work remained to be seen.
If they didn't make contact soon, it wouldn't matter; according to the events in the novel, Mu Yuang would definitely appear during Mu Nujiao and the others' Main Campus assessment.
Song Jie wasn't afraid of him coming—he was only afraid they wouldn't dare to show up!
"My Summoning Element is almost ready to break through to the Advanced Level. I need to speed up my cultivation!"
Once his Summoning Element advanced, he would be able to fully unleash the power of his Demonification.
Just the thought of it made him excited.
A few days later, Song Jie had been focusing solely on cultivation in his rented room. Nothing unusual had happened.
Today, however, was Mu Nujiao's birthday. Mu Lei had also come over to join them.
Song Jie and the others had prepared a large table of dishes, with a massive cake set to the side.
"Sister Mu, come put on your crown!" Ai Tutu called cheerfully.
Mu Nujiao walked over, and Ai Tutu immediately placed a birthday hat on her head.
Mu Lei lit the candles, while Song Jie stood by Mu Nujiao's side.
"Sister Mu, make a wish!" Ai Tutu urged.
Mu Nujiao nodded, smiled at Song Jie, and closed her eyes.
As Ai Tutu and the others began singing "Happy Birthday," the warm melody filled the room.
When Mu Nujiao opened her eyes and blew out the candles, the applause and laughter followed.
Then, Ai Tutu—being her mischievous self—scooped up a handful of cream and flung it straight at Song Jie's face.
Splatt!
The cream landed squarely on him.
"Hahaha!" Ai Tutu burst into laughter at Song Jie's expression.
But her laughter didn't last long—Song Jie grabbed his own handful of cream and smeared it right on Ai Tutu's face.
"Song Jie! I'll fight you!" Ai Tutu shrieked, retaliating immediately.
Mu Nujiao and Mu Lei exchanged helpless looks and stepped aside to let them play it out.
After a while, when both were covered in cream and exhausted from laughing, everyone finally sat down to eat.
"I'm so full!" Ai Tutu leaned back in her chair, rubbing her stomach contentedly.
"Aren't we going singing later? You two should shower first in that state," Mu Lei said with a grin.
"I'll go first!" Ai Tutu jumped up before Song Jie could react.
Song Jie didn't mind; he simply helped Mu Lei carry the plates to the kitchen.
While they washed the dishes, Mu Nujiao, as the birthday girl, relaxed on the sofa watching TV.
Mu Lei leaned toward Song Jie and whispered, "Don't say your brother doesn't create opportunities for you."
"Huh?" Song Jie blinked in confusion, not understanding what he meant.
When they were done cleaning up, everyone returned to the sofa.
After a while, Ai Tutu finished her shower and came out of the bathroom, her hair still damp.
Song Jie picked up his change of clothes and walked toward the bathroom.
As they passed each other, a soft fragrance lingered in the air.
Once inside, Song Jie was about to put down his clothes when he suddenly noticed a pair of pink underwear with cute cartoon patterns hanging there.
He froze in shock.
Just then, Ai Tutu rushed back in—she had forgotten something!
When she saw Song Jie staring in surprise, her face turned crimson.
"Pervert!!"
Without hesitation, she punched him on the back, snatched her underwear, and stormed out.
Song Jie rubbed his sore shoulder with a helpless grimace.
Did he want to see that? No! He was forced to!
He sighed and shut the bathroom door.
Meanwhile, Ai Tutu, holding her undergarment, blushed furiously.
He kissed her before… he saw her naked before… and now he'd seen her underwear too?!
Damn you, Song Jie!
She clenched her fists. She would never forgive him this time!
"Ai Tutu, we should head out first—otherwise, there won't be any private rooms left," Mu Lei called.
"Oh right! Let's go now before it gets too crowded!" Ai Tutu quickly agreed.
"Jiao Jiao, you stay and wait for Song Jie to finish up. We'll go ahead," Mu Lei said.
Mu Nujiao nodded.
After changing her shoes, Ai Tutu left with Mu Lei.
Now, only Song Jie and Mu Nujiao were left in the apartment.
Song Jie had heard the conversation outside and finally understood what Mu Lei meant earlier.
"Jiao Jiao," he called softly.
Mu Nujiao looked up from her phone and walked over. "What's wrong?"
Before she could react, the bathroom door opened, and Song Jie suddenly pulled her inside.
"Song Jie…" Seeing his bare chest, Mu Nujiao's cheeks instantly turned red.
Song Jie said nothing. He lowered his head and kissed her, their bodies pressed together tightly.
The sound of splashing water soon filled the small room.
After a while, Song Jie carried Mu Nujiao out, her face still flushed red—they had just showered together.
"How embarrassing…" she whispered. "Song Jie, Tu Tu and Brother Lei are still waiting for us."
Song Jie smiled gently. "Let them wait. We'll have our own world for two."
Mu Nujiao's heart trembled. Like a frightened kitten, she buried herself in his arms.
Song Jie held her close and walked toward his bedroom.
Nestled against his chest, Mu Nujiao could clearly hear the rapid beating of his heart...
