After their vigorous activities, the two lay on the bed for a while.


Lu Qingjiu was wet and sticky, so he went to shower in the bathroom, but Bai Yuehu was already asleep when he came back. Obviously, his body hadn’t fully recovered yet, and there was visible fatigue between his eyebrows even in his sleep. If it hadn’t been for the satiated expression on his face just now, Lu Qingjiu would have felt that he may have worsened Bai Yuehu’s injuries. He briefly checked Bai Yuehu’s body and confirmed that his wounds had not reopened, then covered him with a blanket to prevent him from catching a cold before softly exiting the room.


Yin Xun sat at the door, feeding Xiao Hua lettuce. He heard Lu Qingjiu’s footsteps and said: “Are you guys done?”


Lu Qingjiu: “…It’s done.”


Yin Xun said, “You guys should be careful.”


Lu Qingjiu said, “Are you reminding me or Bai Yuehu?”


Yin Xun looked back at Lu Qingjiu with a subtle look, and said, “I thought I would remind Bai Yuehu, but after thinking about it, maybe it’s more practical to tell you this.”


Lu Qingjiu laughed: “Okay, you talk too much. Go to town tomorrow to buy some meat, let’s have some barbecue tomorrow.” Since Bai Yuehu would probably be craving meat in the next few days, he would prepare a feast so Bai Yuehu could eat however much he wanted.


Yin Xun nodded eagerly in agreement, and then said that it was getting late so he would go back first.


“Okay, go.” Lu Qingjiu said.


Yin Xun left and Lu Qingjiu returned to the house. He laid beside Bai Yuehu, tossing and turning without being able to fall asleep. Then he found his grandma’s diary and read it carefully several times. It wasn’t until it approached midnight that he felt a little sleepy and finally fell asleep.


The next day, Lu Qingjiu got up early. After making breakfast and feeding Bai Yuehu, he went to town with Yin Xun and bought a large amount of meat. All kinds of meat like pork, beef, chicken, and lamb were brought, as well as assorted  dried seafood and mushrooms.


When he was shopping, he happened to meet Hu Shu and his partner. Lu Qingjiu happened to think of something and paused to have a few words with them.


“Weather? The weather in the town has been quite hot these days.” Hu Shu obviously didn’t understand Lu Qingjiu’s question and asked blankly, “What’s wrong?”


Lu Qingjiu shook his head, and said he was just casually asking.


Hu Shu was inexplicable: “Just asking?”


Lu Qingjiu: “Yeah.”


“By the way, if you are free the day after tomorrow, I wanted to invite you over for a meal.” Hu Shu said, “I haven’t thanked you for the kindergarten incident last time.”


“The day after tomorrow?” Lu Qingjiu thought for a while and decided to go back and ask Bai Yuehu.


Hu Shu nodded in agreement.


The two finished buying their items and returned home with large and small bags. After they got home, they saw Bai Yuehu still fast asleep. Lu Qingjiu didn’t bother waking him either and started processing the ingredients together with Yin Xun. The meat was marinated, the shrimp was thawed, and the vegetables were washed. In the past, almost all barbecues were grilled over charcoal, but this time, he used a roasting pan. Lu Qingjiu also prepared lettuce to cut through the greasy dishes. He had prepared a lot of spicy cabbage and planned to eat them together.


When it was ready, Lu Qingjiu woke Bai Yuehu up. Bai Yuehu opened his eyes to see Lu Qingjiu and was still in a daze as he leaned in to kiss the corners of Lu Qingjiu’s lips. Those ears, that were very different from his cold appearance and style, also stood up, reminding Lu Qingjiu of some scenes unsuitable for children.


When emotions were at their peak, Bai Yuehu’s ears would appear. When Lu Qingjiu was no longer able to hold it in, he would reach out and grab it and even lower his head to take a bite. It tasted soft and fluffy, and it felt strange when he chewed it. Moreover… Bai Yuehu’s body would tense at this time, reminding Lu Qingjiu of the feeling of having his dragon’s horns touched.


He didn’t know why a dragon, who was such a cold creature, would have such a pair of cute furry ears.


Thinking of this, Lu Qingjiu touched the confused Bai Yuehu with pity, and said, “Yuehu, come have dinner.”


Bai Yuehu was still confused, but he answered obediently, “Okay…”


Lu Qingjiu said, “Be good, you can sleep more after eating.”


Bai Yuehu nodded, and nuzzled against Lu Qingjiu’s ears and temples for a while before fully waking up.


After washing up, the two went to the living room and took their chopsticks to eat.


Although barbecue was not cooked as meticulously as other dishes, its quantity was the biggest advantage. After roasting it to a nice brown colour, it would be placed among the lettuce along with some spicy cabbage and a little garlic or green pepper before sending it into an open mouth. It was very satisfying.


He didn’t go to the market today, so he couldn’t buy fresh shrimps, only some frozen shrimps as a substitute. However, dipping them in some chili was still delicious. As for vegetables, almost all of them were swept up by Lu Qingjiu. After washing the white round mushrooms, they were roasted in a pot. After a while, there was plenty of juice; the essence of the mushrooms, which made for a delicious sauce. As for the lactone tofu wrapped in tin foil, having it with pickled pepper and green onion and various spices, it was spicy and refreshing. After having too much barbecued meat, a bite of this could counter the greasiness.


While eating, Lu Qingjiu told Bai Yuehu about the person who came by pretending to be him the other day. After hearing this, Baiyuehu looked solemn and repeatedly asked for details. When he heard that Lu Qingjiu had hugged  him, Bai Yuehu’s face became very cold.


“He hugged you?” Bai Yuehu asked.


“Yeah.” Lu Qingjiu nibbled the roasted dried eggplant. For some reason, Bai Yuehu’s solemn gaze made him feel a little frustrated, “I didn’t realise it at the time.”


Bai Yuehu asked, “Didn’t realise?”


Lu Qingjiu: “Um… I’ll realise it next time.”


Bai Yuehu didn’t speak, frowning as if thinking about something.


Lu Qingjiu’s back felt prickly from his gaze. He gave a smile to ease the atmosphere and changed the subject: “By the way, Hu Shu and the others want to invite us over for a meal, he asked if the day after tomorrow is okay…”


Bai Yuehu said: “Okay.”


Seeing Bai Yuehu agree, Lu Qingjiu thought that they had moved on from the previous topic. He was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Bai Yuehu say: “You really didn’t realise it?”


Lu Qingjiu: “…”


Bai Yuehu was hung up on this issue, and his beautiful brows scrunched up: “I’m still a little different from him, right?”


Lu Qingjiu stopped talking and silently swallowed the food he was chewing. After being quiet for a while, he took a piece of tissue to wipe his mouth clean and then leaned over and said a few words in his ears.


After Bai Yuehu heard Lu Qingjiu’s words, his brows instantly relaxed and he smiled softly. Yin Xun, who was eating by the side, stared blankly at them, wondering what Lu Qingjiu had said to coax Bai Yuehu.


“You promised,” Bai Yuehu’s eyes curved and his ears twitched, “You can’t break your promise.”


Lu Qingjiu looked helpless: “Okay…but at least wait for your injuries to heal?”


Bai Yuehu said: “I am fine now.”


Lu Qingjiu said, “Shut up, I almost saw your stomach last night.”


Bai Yuehu: “…”


Lu Qingjiu: “Oh, maybe it’s not your stomach, but intestines.” The wound on Bai Yuehu’s belly was really horrible. If it weren’t for him being a dragon, he might have been dead 10,000 times over. Lu Qingjiu didn’t dare to change his sleeping position last night. He was afraid that when he laid on Bai Yuehu, some organs would fall on him. Just thinking about this scene sent shivers up his spine.


The two reached a dirty and shady deal, leaving only the single dog Yin Xun beside him gnawing on lettuce leaves. At this moment, he finally understood what Zhu Miaomiao meant by dog abuse…


The barbecue was considered over at midnight, when Bai Yuehu ate all the food. Because it was late, Lu Qingjiu told Yin Xun to clean up tomorrow morning and then everyone went their respective ways to rest.


Lu Qingjiu replied to Hu Shu the next day, saying that they could make it and asked for the time and place.


“Tomorrow afternoon, we have a break.” Hu Shu said, “Let’s go to the barbecue restaurant next to the police station. Their lamb skewers are absolutely amazing. You must try it.”


“Okay.” Lu Qingjiu agreed.


“Then we will see you there.” After Hu Shu and Lu Qingjiu agreed on a time, they hung up.


To be honest, when he came to Shuifu Village, apart from his neighbors, Lu Qingjiu really didn’t make any friends. Now with the knowledge that the villagers were actually not alive, it extinguished any ideas he had. From their previous encounters, Lu Qingjiu had a good impression of Hu Shu and Pang Ziqi. Both of them were relatively responsible police officers, there is no harm staying in touch. Moreover, they should have an internal system to know the latest news about non-human beings.


That afternoon, Lu Qingjiu brought Bai Yuehu and Yin Xun there on time, but when he arrived in town, Hu Shu called and said that there was something urgent and the meal time needed to be pushed back.


“When do you think you’ll be done?” Lu Qingjiu asked.


“You might as well come to the police station. Pang Ziqi and I will be on duty today.” Hu Shu said, “We will get off work at around eight o’clock. When we get off work, we can go eat skewers.”


Lu Qingjiu: “…Are you sure?”


Hu Shu said: “Yes, our leader is not here, it’s okay.”


Lu Qingjiu felt it was strange: “Didn’t you say that today you’re off shift?”


Hu Shu helplessly explained that something happened to the colleague on duty today and he had to temporarily leave. He and Pang Ziqi were called over. Although there was usually nothing happening in the town, they couldn’t relax in case of an unexpected situation.


Lu Qingjiu felt that Hu Shu’s words were reasonable, so he drove to the police station.


Before coming here, Lu Qingjiu had never been to the police station, but after he came, he became a frequent visitor and even made two police friends.


The police station in this town was very small, plus there were no major cases. The previous case of the bodies in the wells had been transferred to the city for investigation.


When Lu Qingjiu walked in, he immediately saw Hu Shu and Pang Ziqi sitting in front of the computer. When they saw Lu Qingjiu coming, they greeted him enthusiastically.


“Sit down, I’ll pour you a cup of tea.” Hu Shu greeted him warmly and got up to pour tea for the three of them. Although it was hot outside, the air conditioner inside was turned on and it was quite chilly.


“What are you doing?” Lu Qingjiu asked.


“Writing a report,” Hu Shu replied, “They found something in town a few days ago…”


Lu Qingjiu said, “Found something? What? It’s not a corpse or anything, right?”
