Chapter 87

"What? You said you're going to Z City on a business trip and asked if I have any work for you?" Xu Kai had an expression on his face like he had just seen a ghost. He took out his phone and looked at the lunar calendar several times.

What day is today anyway?

How could Song Jixing be leaving Y City?

"After the event ends, I want to take a break for about half a month or so, but I might also come back early." Song Jixing added.

Considering that she would be staying in Z City for a while, Song Jixing decided to earn some money. Better safe than sorry!

Only then did Xu Kai not look as horrified as before. He knew Song Jixing would never work this hard!

Turns out she was taking a month off and picking up jobs on the side!

Xu Kai considered himself not a harsh agent. Plus Song Jixing's performances have been quite good lately, starring in one big production after another, with directors singing her praises nonstop.

It was time to relax and take a break.

Xu Kai thought for a bit, "There are many mountains in Z City. Are you going there for a mountain getaway?"

Song Jixing: "I do plan to go to the mountains." To see the reservoir in the mountains.

Xu Kai nodded, "The air quality is better in the mountains. Breathe in more fresh air and have a good rest." Then he spent half a day lining up two jobs for Song Jixing.

One was the opening of a shopping mall where she only needed to make an appearance and walk the red carpet. The other was promoting a travel brand.

Song Jixing had done well in a previous travel reality show that was very popular. After the island opened up, many people went there to relive Song Jixing's journey, attracting many advertisers.

After discussing some work arrangements, Xu Kai drew up contracts for Song Jixing to sign, and asked about her departure time to book plane tickets and hotels for her. Those were part of an agent's daily duties. ๐—ณr๐šŽ๐žw๐ž๐š‹๐—ป๐—ผvel.๐—ฐo๐ฆ

Song Jixing: "I'll book everything myself this time. I plan to drive there myself." She would be going with fellow sect members, so flying was out of the question. Song Jixing planned to drive on the highway.

Xu Kai asked, "You're not bringing Xiao Wang?"

Of course not -

Song Jixing had no plans to bring Xiao Wang from the start, since fellow sect members would be coming too. But now that Xu Kai mentioned it, it seemed very inappropriate for her to not have her assistant for work.

Although she could bring her senior sect brother, he did not look like her assistant at all.

To avoid drawing too much attention, Song Jixing decided to still bring Xiao Wang for work. "Xiao Wang can come along for work. I'll go on vacation by myself for the rest of the time." Song Jixing quickly changed her tune.

But Xu Kai still felt something was off: "Are you really going on vacation? Or are you going to do something else? Just by yourself?"

Song Jixing: "I won't be alone. Sect members will be there too. We're just going to the mountains to take a look."

Xu Kai's eyes which were wide open instantly relaxed back.

Going back to the sect, that explains everything.

Still, Xu Kai was very curious. "Which mountain did you guys cultivate at? Is it lively there? Can you take me to visit if convenient?"

Song Jixing: "A small, undeveloped mountain that's hard to climb. Outsiders are not allowed in."

I see.

Xu Kai sighed, but he wasn't too disappointed either. Considering the thing Song Jixing kept at home, there were probably more of those on the mountain. What if he got scared to death there?

Better not to go!

While Song Jixing was busy over here, Shen Feixian still had much to do over there.

As the first successful case of Qingyun Cram School, Wang Lun's progress attracted the attention of many parents. Many wanted to send their kids there to study.

Some wanted to learn soccer, some martial arts, some simply to strengthen their body, and even some who wanted to send their fat kids there to lose weight.

Not for anything else - they had heard that the teacher was extremely attentive and the cafeteria food was quite bad.

Parents submitted registration forms of all kinds. Shen Feixian earnestly sifted through them and picked five or six students out, rejecting the rest. He then handed over the remaining matters to Qi Yun and WenRen He.

On the day before leaving, Shen Feixian went out specially to buy some carbonated drinks, seventeen or eighteen kinds, and put them out on the table to let Bai Ling try.

Bai Ling tasted all kinds of modern fermented drinks but was not very satisfied. The only one she was somewhat surprised by was the sparkling wine. She liked the feeling of little bubbles bursting between her teeth.

But she currently did not have any spells for Song Jixing to buy her things, nor did she earn money herself. The wine at home was drink one bottle less one bottle.

Shen Feixian: "Elder Bai, this time I'm going out with martial sister to do something and will be passing by some beverage factories. I heard there are a lot of such sparkling drinks there. Would Elder Bai like to try them?"

Bai Ling had just finished a glass of sparkling water. Hearing this, her expression was somewhat doubtful, but she glanced again at the colorful drinks on the table.

"If Elder Bai is willing to come, you can help martial sister and me along the way. I can buy thousands of pounds of sparkling water for Elder Bai..." Shen Feixian said with a smile.

After listening, Bai Ling still sounded somewhat doubtful. "Just to work?"

"I can also take Elder Bai sightseeing and try the delicacies here. I heard there's a food festival where we're going with thousands of tasty foods and all kinds of wine..."

Bai Ling immediately put down her glass heavily. Her mind was set. "Let's go! Let's go now!"

It was hard enough coming to the mortal realm to play. How could she be cooped up at home!

Upon hearing this, Xiang Zhi immediately went back to pack.

The two did not have much stuff, just daily necessities and clothes filling up half a suitcase.

Shen Feixian and Song Jixing had even less. All their things did not even half fill the trunk.

Before leaving, WenRen He sent over a jar of matcha sauce, for when the group got hungry on the road. All the matcha sauce at school was personally made by WenRen He.

Bai Ling rolled her eyes at the sight. Shen Feixian smilingly accepted it.

-

On the highway to Z City, Song Jixing mobilized her spiritual power to look at the surrounding mountains.

The aura in Z City was clearly richer than Y City, with overflowing aura casually seen in the mountains. She had barely seen any in Y City, perhaps due to arrays being more formidable.

The day before setting off, Song Jixing booked a large apartment online in the city, with four to five bedrooms, very spacious and cheaper than a hotel.

After putting their luggage down, Bai Ling impatiently urged Shen Feixian to bring her out to play.

Shen Feixian bid Song Jixing and brought Bai Ling and Xiang Zhi out.

Song Jixing did not feel lonely alone in the apartment. She had many things to do.

She first sent Xiao Wang a message with her lodging address. Then she went to a nearby car rental place to rent a car, immediately driving off.

The reservoir was in the mountains, a over two hour drive from the city.

By the time Song Jixing arrived, it was already dark. Neither smoke nor lights around, deathly still.
