A feast with no good fortune

bt, burn more paper money. I also gave you the amulet to ward off evil spirits, at least you are a member of the Mu family, can't even stick on a talisman""I, I..." Achi stammered, too anxious to spea..."What's wrong with me having a boyfriend" I furrowed my brow in confusion.

Jiang Qiyun's face was cold, and the icy pressure enveloped us. I felt like I couldn't breathe standing beside him, let alone Hou Shaowen, that spoiled playboy.

"Um...cough...it's nothing, I was just a little surprised. The data showed that you've never been close with the opposite sex, so..."

"Data I was taken aback, and after a moment of reflection, understood his meaning: "Hou Shaowen, what do you mean You've been investigating me!"

Hou Shaowen hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, it wasn't me! You misunderstood. It was Zhong Shu who didn't trust the two of you young people, so he sent someone to investigate. Knowing that your family has a scholarly background, he felt relieved to entrust you with the task. He was afraid of implicating you; that formation was really sinister!"

I let out a cold snort. Boss Zhong, that old fox, would actually care so much about others What a joke! He must have investigated our foundation thoroughly!

"Miss Mu, Miss Xiao Qiao, please don't be angry, don't be angry! We really didn't mean any harm—ah!!" Hou Shaowen suddenly exclaimed.

Jiang Qiyun beckoned with his finger, and the hood of his car suddenly flew open as if struck by a heavy blow, causing him to let out a startled cry.

"….Young Master Hou, you take your time fixing the car. We're leaving first." I glared at him. This guy was truly annoying!

I pulled Jiang Qiyun away hurriedly, grumbling in frustration, "This guy, if it wasn't for the fact that he's a big customer, I wouldn't want him to set foot in my shop again…"

"...His family has too many karmic hindrances. At best, they will fall apart and relatives will turn against each other; at worst, there will be bloodshed, and the family will be destroyed." Jiang Qiyun said lightly.

I smiled. "My brother said the same thing... Our family has quite a few karmic burdens. Look at my dad, my brother, and me; almost all of us are destined to end our lives alone."

Jiang Qiyun's face turned unpleasant, he squeezed my hand but didn't say anything.

>>

Mr. Zhong looked at us happily: “You two nephews are truly extraordinary. You came out and helped me find Old Chen back, and even got back the things he stole! It's really amazing, your family lineage is strong!”

My brother replied lazily: "Our family's business is commerce, these are just extras. Mr. Zhong, please don't overpraise us."

Boss Zhong was a little embarrassed, and he turned towards Old Man Chen who was kneeling on the ground, revealing a terrifying smile: "Master Chen, look, I've already given you the deposit, and this matter has dragged on for so long. Shouldn't you help me resolve it"

Mr. Chen, who was over fifty years old, of course knew that Mr. Zhong, a local snake, had connections in both the white and black worlds and could easily cut off a few of his fingers.

He knelt on the carpet and said with a smile, "Boss Zhong, to be honest, my ability is limited. I'm just throwing stones to ask for jade. The rest will definitely be handled by these two young heroes. I'll return the 200,000 deposit properly, consider it as me working for nothing and learning a lesson!"

I rolled my eyes at him. This old charlatan's audacity is truly despicable, trying to throw out a bait Besides swindling and cheating, what else can this guy do

Mr. Zhong, of course, didn't buy it: "I heard that once a master sets up an array, outsiders shouldn't interfere. You taking the root carvings from the array means you've already interfered in this matter. Now wanting to withdraw is probably not easy..."

His tone grew increasingly dangerous, Mr. Chen's face paled, and he kept pleading with me with his eyes.

“Zhong…cough, Uncle Zhong.” I called out with a smile, and Boss Zhong immediately turned towards me with a grin. “Little Qiao, what can I do for you”

"... We've already taught Old Chen a lesson. He's truly incapable of breaking this formation. Just let him off this once." I pleaded for Old Chen.

Mr. Zhong smiled kindly: “As long as Miss Xiao Qiao speaks, I have nothing to disagree with, it’s all up to you!”

He waved his hand, and two bodyguards dragged Old Chen out. Boss Zhong smiled and asked, “Since you don’t know about this formation, Miss Qiao, do you have any way to resolve it”

"Zhong Shu, did you bring the data" I asked.

Boss Zhong immediately had his men bring over a brown paper bag. It was filled with photos he'd collected from various sources. Some were taken by workers on their phones when they discovered the formation, while others were remnants of the formations after they were pushed down. There were also pictures of the scenes where accidents happened and people died.

"As you requested, I've developed all the photos we could gather. These are them." Boss Zhong shook his head. "Six people, all six are dead."

Jiang Qiyun lowered his eyes to look at the first picture. At that time, the formation hadn't been destroyed yet. It was a photo dug up by an excavator. There were seven pillars lying messily on the ground, and almost every pillar had an object beside it, one of which was the root carving stolen by Old Chen.

"What about the other stuff, where did you put it" I asked, looking up.

"Where would I dare to leave it All of it was pushed down by bulldozers and piled at the construction waste site." Boss Zhong shook his head and sighed: "If you have some free time after dinner, why not come with me to the construction site and take a look"

"...Okay." I knew this wouldn't be a pleasant dinner. This Zhong boss had already been waiting impatiently and would definitely urge us to go see his construction site.

Most current development projects rely on bank loans, with surprisingly high interest rates. The losses incurred from halting work for a single day are substantial, making it crucial to complete projects as soon as possible.

We followed him to the other side of the city, where he was developing high-end residences and villas. The site was huge and under construction at this point, with only the workers' living quarters lit up.

As soon as I got out of the car, I saw a figure climbing onto the second-floor roof of the makeshift shack.

"Boss Zhong, who is that" I asked hurriedly.

Mr. Zhong didn't know these workers at all, so he immediately sent someone to call the foreman over.

During these few minutes of waiting, we witnessed a bizarre sight. The person who had climbed onto the second-floor roof suddenly began dancing wildly and jumping on top.

—— It was a kind of abnormal jumping, his feet lifted off the ground and landed heavily, his hands waving wildly as if an invisible wire was pulling him up and down.

"Hey! What are you doing!" Zhong's bodyguard yelled from afar.

The man seemed not to hear, and continued to jump up and down with his whole body, landing heavily on the blue tin roof. The force of each impact seemed as if it might pierce right through!

I suddenly tightened my grip on Jiang Qiyun beside me, my voice trembling slightly as I said, "Jiang...Qiyun, did I...did I see things wrong Over there—"

My brother also saw something amiss, he immediately took out his tactical flashlight from his car and turned it on full blast towards that direction!

My blood ran cold. I wasn't mistaken, the man was jumping and contorting his body in such a bizarre way because he had a hand, dripping with blood, on his head!

That hand grabbed his hair, lifting it up and down, as if he were a small animal being tossed around. Finally, the hand loosened its grip—
