The matter with Zhao Xiaodao has temporarily come to an end.

With such an experience, her new movie is already buzzing even before its release. When it hits the theaters, these past couple of days will surely come back into the spotlight.

As long as the quality isn’t particularly bad, the box office won’t be an issue.

Lu Zheng and Lin Wan didn’t stay any longer and returned to Hai City that night, enjoying a peaceful two-person world without crossing over.

"Come on, let’s cross over."

"I’m not going; there’s something else today."

Early in the morning, Lu Zheng was ready to take Lin Wan to Tonglin County for breakfast, but Lin Wan shook her head and refused.

"It’s Saturday today."

"There’s a case to follow, the Interpol from Lighthouse Country will arrive on a noon flight," Lin Wan said.

"Another international assassin?" Lu Zheng recalled a past case in Beidu.

"Where are so many international assassins from? It’s just plain and simple economic crime, involving Lighthouse Country and a South American country; it’s considered a triangular crime relationship," Lin Wan explained.

So, after getting dressed and stretching a slightly fatigued body, Lin Wan leaned over, gave Lu Zheng a kiss, and headed out to work.

"Done using and now I’m ignored, huh," Lu Zheng muttered, decisively crossing over.

Tying up his hair, changing into a scholar’s robe, and putting on the outermost wolf fur coat, Lu Zheng leisurely walked out of the bedroom.

"Aunt Liu, is there any breakfast left?"

"Yes, yes, I’ll serve it for you!"

Lu Zheng stepped into the front hall to see Yue Honghai eating bread with porridge, accompanied by a large plate of braised beef offal and a plate of pig head meat.

"Young Master, join us!" Yue Honghai said happily.

Yue Honghai had been leading quite a happy life lately. After returning from Phoenix Mountain, he immediately went to the Lu River God’s Mansion to chat with He Dingshan.

On days when there’s nothing to do, he either goes to Yu Ling Garden to listen to opera or goes to Yu Ling Garden to listen to opera.

It’s as if he’s moved into the garden.

"There may be many operas at Yu Ling Garden, but they’ve been performed so many times. Aren’t you tired of listening to them?" Lu Zheng asked helplessly.

"There are also new operas, and occasionally there are troupes from other places on stage," Yue Honghai explained, then added, "Aren’t you always going to Le Ping Building Hall to tell stories?"

Lu Zheng rolled his eyes. How can that be the same? I’m there to understand local customs and culture!

"By the way, Young Master, I want to return to the East Sea in the next couple of days," Yue Honghai said.

"What’s the matter? Don’t tell me you’ve spent all of the money from selling pearls again?" Lu Zheng asked offhandedly.

"Yeah!" Yue Honghai nodded emphatically.

"What?" Lu Zheng looked up abruptly, nearly losing the half bread and half meat in his mouth.

Not to mention how much money Yue Honghai initially had, just that he returned from the East Sea last time with pearls and coral, which were sold to professional merchants in Yizhou Prefecture for over ten thousand guan.

For an average person, that amount could sustain a lifetime.

"Spent it all," Yue Honghai repeated.

Lu Zheng couldn’t help but take a deep breath, giving a thumbs up in admiration, "You’re so generous!"

Yue Honghai chuckled, seemingly proud, and waved his hand, "It’s nothing, just giving rewards casually, it’s not worth much."

Indeed, it’s not worth much; they were all casually picked up from the sea.

Yue Honghai asked cautiously, "So, can I go?"

As Lu Zheng’s guest, he needed the host’s approval to leave. Last time he returned to the East Sea, he specially sought permission from Shen Ying at Peach Blossom Plain because Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan were not around.

"You can go!" Lu Zheng waved his hand, pondering whether the opera troupe at Yu Ling Garden had become wealthier than their counterparts in Zhongjing.

Yue Honghai grinned, showing a mouthful of shredded meat, "I’ll be quick!"

Lu Zheng was at a loss, sighing helplessly, feeling as if he lived less lavishly than Yue Honghai.

"Young Master, why the sigh?" Yue Honghai asked.

"It’s nothing," Lu Zheng shook his head, "I just feel like making money is too easy for you..."

Yue Honghai was puzzled, "Young Master, the ordinary treasures you got from the East Sea Jade Dragon Palace are also worth a lot once sold, aren’t they?"

Lu Zheng smacked his lips, his collection addiction instantly taking the higher ground in his mind and immediately said, "Those are family heirlooms, how can they be sold for money?"

During two trips to the East Sea Dragon Palace, Lu Zheng and his team had made significant acquisitions.

Coral, pearls, agate, jade pendants, each a precious item, large and attractive. Bringing just one of these to Blue Star could astonish people.

However, having come from a humble background, Lu Zheng couldn’t bear to sell such things for money.

Yue Honghai curled his lips, "How did those mortal items suddenly become family heirlooms? You can’t eat them or drink them; what’s the use of pressing them at the bottom of a jewelry box?"

Lu Zheng, "..."

"Finish eating quickly, the boss of Yu Ling Garden is still waiting for you."

"Huh? Young Master, how did you know?"

...

After sending Yue Honghai off, Lu Zheng took a turn at Renxin Hall, and then found Shen Ying at Peach Blossom Plain, who was instructing Yang Caiyi with Si Lingxi.

Under a casual pointer by Si Lingxi and a random demonstration, a thread of spiritual qi seeped into the earth at Yang Caiyi’s fingertip, and a pale purple flower sprouted out of thin air.

The "Upper Yuan Spirit Light Three Treasures Birth Scripture" also has certain effects in the realm of Spiritual Birth.

"Squeak squeak..."

But such a scene clearly exceeded the comprehension scope of the two little pandas. The two little creatures surrounded Yang Caiyi, staring at her hand, seemingly wanting to lick it.

Zhi Ma and the Ginseng Doll were also nearby.

With Liu Qingyan and Du Yueyao not around, they boldly came out.

Yang Caiyi didn’t let the two little pandas lick her hand; instead, she pulled a large apple out of her sleeve, split it casually into two halves.

The two little pandas instantly forgot their curiosity for the flower, each taking a half and munching away briskly.

Zhi Ma and the Ginseng Doll leaned back disdainfully, showing disdain for the pandas’ intelligence.

Then, Shen Ying took a porcelain bottle from her bracelet, popped the cork, and released a fragrant aroma.

The next moment, Zhi Ma and the Ginseng Doll leaned forward, transformed into two afterimages, and with a swish, appeared beside Shen Ying, one massaging her back, the other her legs, very diligently.

As for the two little pandas, they looked at the apple in their paws, lifted their heads to sniff the air, glanced at the porcelain bottle in Shen Ying’s hand, unsure of which to choose.

"Such foolish creatures!"

Shen Ying sighed, flicked her fingers lightly, and two drops of stalactite spiritual liquid flew out from the bottle’s mouth, entering the mouths of both pandas on the left and right.

The pair promptly exhaled satisfaction, then snuggled back into their half-eaten apples, crunching away fervently.

Finishing their apples, and weary under the flush of stalactite spiritual liquid, the two little pandas swiftly climbed a tree, seeking a suitable branch, limply hanging their limbs and tail, slipping into slumber instantly.

Everyone, "..."
