36 need not have feelings
ond, but I can never walk out of this street.I was wrapped in fur, with only a slit to look out from, dragging my long tail behind me like a clumsy, giant, fluffy animal, carefully making my way into...I touched Jiang Qiyun's seal, hesitating whether to summon a ghost messenger to collect his soul.
Seeing this old woman rant and rave about her son and daughter-in-law, I hesitated.
I am not a devout or kind person. When my family sacrificed me, I had grown distant from human emotions, even harboring resentment towards them.
But my dad and brother, despite the strong opposition from our family, took me in to live with them. It was only then that I gradually began to understand what it meant to have a family.
There's no woman born cold-hearted in this world, she just hasn't had her heart warmed yet.
The old woman's shriek abruptly ceased, and she began to tremble violently. Her body seemed to be scorched, wisps of black smoke rising from it.
Song Wei's voice sounded behind me: "Xiao Qiao, what's wrong... I, I have goosebumps for no reason, is it that this house has... ghosts!"
Ghost!
I almost laughed out loud, she came up with such a cute term.
The slight chill behind me told me without looking that it was Jiang Qiyun.
He usually doesn't appear before me during the day, what day is it today
His powerful aura shocked the old ghost to the point of near annihilation.
" ...Such a small thing, what are you dawdling about" He stood behind me, very close, his voice almost echoing above my head.
"She hasn't hurt anyone yet, I feel a bit sorry for her..." I explained in a low voice.
"Pity" Jiang Qiyun's voice was cold as ice: "You should ask her what she has done... forcing her daughter-in-law to miscarry two girls in a row. This is karmic retribution, isn't it"
I was speechless. Looking back at the old woman, she had curled up into a ball, sobbing and wailing: "Spare me... Spare me..."
"Don't believe what ghosts say, and don't have any feelings for them." He said coldly.
My heart skipped a beat. How did this sound like a warning
In my eyes, Jiang Qiyun is also a ghost. In fact, he is not a ghost but a deity from the Netherworld.
I saw that the old woman was about to be completely consumed, and I hurriedly asked, “Don’t you spare her”
Jiang Qiyun glared at me: "Do I need to get involved in this"
This guy...doesn't he need to be this arrogant...
I silently recited the Bao Fa, and with two puffs of sound, two ghost officers in soap-colored robes appeared, tremblingly bowing to Jiang Qiyun before locking up this Earthbound Ghost.
They were still the two ghost officers who appeared last time when I was exorcising ghosts at the Hou residence. I smiled and said, “How come it’s you guys again”
The chain-wielding ghost messenger's voice trembled as he spoke: "That... my colleagues said, said... that Young Mistress is deeply favored by the Underworld Emperor. She must be difficult to serve, and we are afraid of accidentally angering you, so..." He trailed off, unable to finish his sentence.
Okay, these two little guys, one is cute and the other is goofy. They definitely seem like new people who are often bullied.
So I'm still considered "well-loved"
Jiang Qiyun hummed softly, and the two little ghost attendants were almost scared out of their wits. I quickly signaled them to leave.
Being favored, that phrase inexplicably put me in a good mood, making me smile involuntarily.
"What are you laughing at Move it!" Jiang Qiyun said impatiently.
I walked out of the bathroom, and in the living room, Song Wei was staring at me blankly, holding her phone: "Xiao Qiao, you... if you don't come back to your senses, I'm going to call 110..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"It's alright...that ghost is already taken care of. Do you still want this house"
Upon hearing that there were really ghosts, Song Wei screamed and rushed out the door. After she had a dream about that sickly ghost last time, she began to believe that there were ghosts in this world. Even though the house had been dealt with, she didn't want it anymore.
We took the elevator down. Jiang Qiyun stood silently beside me, completely ignoring Song Wei. Anyway, only I could see and touch him.
Song Wei was now covered in anger, she rushed to the middle-aged man's face and slapped him, then angrily scolded: You swindling businessman, you even dare to sell us a house that has killed people!
The middle-aged man was dumbfounded by her scolding. He suddenly jumped up and asked, "You, how do you know—"
I gave him a withering look. “I saw your mother, her head covered in blood and brains, muttering your name and your wife’s name.”
The middle-aged man's face turned pale, his legs went weak, and he collapsed to the ground, muttering, "My, my mother... she hasn't really left..."
I wanted to give him a lesson and said, “You're so filial, aren't you You didn't even know your own mother was hurt; and how do you handle such things You haven't even sent the elder off!”
The man whispered that he didn't have a funeral prepared. When his mother had an accident, he and his daughter-in-law happened to be traveling out of town. By the time they returned, his mother had already started bloating and decaying. Seeing her like this would be embarrassing for anyone at a funeral, so his daughter-in-law said they wouldn't have a funeral. They quickly took her to be cremated.
I shrugged and said, "It's none of our business. We don't want this house. If you move in, someone will die, and it will be on your head. You better just leave it empty."
A middle-aged man grabbed my arm suddenly, just about to speak when he tripped and fell to the roadside.
I turned around, Jiang Qiyun looked at that man with displeasure. When he got up, his head was bleeding.
"I quietly backed away two steps. He had warned me not to let other men touch me, wasn't this level of contact too much I just hoped he wouldn't take his anger out on me.
“That, little girl, no, no……Master, can you do a ritual for me…… I, how could this house be worth 2 million I worked so hard to earn money to buy a house, and then this happened……I will definitely pay a hefty reward, a hefty reward!” He knelt down before me.
This happened in the community, drawing stares from others. Some even whispered if this was a power play.
I'm a little annoyed: "I'm not a master, you need to move this house and redesign it, these are two separate things, plus you have to invite someone to ward off bad luck. All of this will cost a lot of money. If you really need help, here's the person's contact information."
I handed my brother's business card to him.
Song Wei cursed him, saying something so vicious that she'd be careful of retribution. Then she took my arm and walked away.
I'm a little embarrassed, Jiang Qiyun is right next to me, but because Song Wei is here, I can't talk to him.
This doesn't seem quite right. He's not exactly easygoing, and showing up in broad daylight might mean he has something to ask me.
"Song Wei, that... I have something to do today and can't go shopping with you, okay" I quickly explained, lest Song Wei, that little troublemaker, drag me out shopping again.
Song Wei narrowed her eyes at me, making me feel a little guilty. She smiled wickedly and said, “Xiao Qiao, you still say you’re not a love dog, tell the truth”
My god, Jiang Qiyun is right behind me! You old fox, can you be any more obvious!
"It seems like I need to find a boyfriend too, huh Mmm, uh—" fate, so we should just accept it and let go.My dad rubbed his hands together, looking a bit embarrassed as he said, "Old Lady Wu is a distant relative of the Shen family. You know that, right""I kno...
