After leaving Zhenyunxuan, Xiao Xingyu went out and never came back.

That night, Zhang Moyan tossed and turned in bed for half the night. For the first time in her life, after watching a horror movie, there was no image of the movie in her mind. She kept checking the time on her mobile phone and listening carefully for footsteps on the stairs outside the door.

It was past twelve o'clock and Xiao Xingyu still hadn't come back. She couldn't help but send him a WeChat message.

"Aren't you coming back yet? When will you be back?"

Several minutes after sending it, I realized that I forgot to use honorifics. However, the time to withdraw the message had passed. I felt embarrassed to send another one, so I just gave up.

After holding the phone for a long time, Xiao Xingyu didn't reply, and Zhang Moyan became more and more anxious.

After an unknown amount of time, WeChat rang. It was Xiao Xingyu calling her! Zhang Moyan perked up and quickly picked up the phone.

"Teacher Xiao, why haven't you come back yet?" Zhang Moyan spoke before the other party could say anything.

The person on the other end of the phone paused, then said, "Oh, I'm not going home tonight."

The voice sounded a little tired.

"You... aren't going home?" She asked timidly, stunned. "Are you still with that Jiang Dazhu?"

"Yeah, that's right. You might not be able to go home for the next day or two. You should make your own plans to kill time!"

Zhang Moyan was stunned for a moment, then mustered up the courage to ask, "Oh, Teacher Xiao, what took you so long to see my message?"

"Are you waiting for my reply?" Xiao Xingyu's voice seemed to rise a little, and then he laughed, "I was busy just now, and I'm free now. I'll take a break and then I'll be busy again later, so I won't go back!"

"Still busy..." It was obvious that Xiao Xingyu wanted to hang up, but Zhang Moyan couldn't help asking, "Teacher Xiao, what are you busy with?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone, just three or four seconds, and Zhang Moyan seemed to understand everything. Suddenly, she had the urge to hang up and not listen to anything else.

But that would be rude.

"What am I busy with? This..." Xiao Xingyu seemed a little hesitant, "I'd better not tell someone as simple as you."

really!

Teacher Xiao was at a loss for words. Things must be just as she thought!

Zhang Moyan felt goosebumps all over her body, and her throat was tight. Jiang Dazhu, that beast, had already tortured Teacher Xiao once, and now he wanted to torture her again. How despicable!

After taking a deep breath, even though she knew it was a whim, she still said, "Teacher Xiao, can you come back?"

"Huh? What's going on?"

"Well... my little aunt asked me to go see a horror movie with her this afternoon. You know, it's last year's box office champion, 'The Haunted Mansion: Forbidden Zone.' I usually don't dare watch horror movies, and the scenes in that story are so similar to your house. I'm a little scared living alone in your building!"

"Is that so?" Xiao Xingyu seemed to think for a moment, "Then there's nothing to be afraid of. Movie scripts are all made up, and ghosts are all played by people. If you're really scared, just sleep with the lights on!"

The implication is that he can't come back.

"I'll try my best to go back tomorrow. If not, just let Sasa come and sleep with you..." Xiao Xingyu said this when a very rude and irritable man's voice rang out from the other end of the line: "Xiao Xingyu, what are you doing? You still have time to chat on the phone? All your time now is mine!"

Then Xiao Xingyu cursed: "Fuck, are there still human rights?!"

Then Xiao Xingyu's voice came back: "Okay, I have to get busy now. You should get some rest early! Don't let your mind wander. I'm hanging up now!"

Finished hastily.

Zhang Moyan clutched the phone whose call had ended, her whole body cold.

Who was that rude man on the phone? Why did he speak to Xiao Xingyu in that manner? Xiao Xingyu was such a proud person, yet now he was being ordered around by him, and was being tortured physically and mentally...

Zhang Moyan's hands trembled as she checked the auction prices for Kangxi Langhong on her phone. She even found the price of the Guanyin vase. It wasn't as expensive as she'd thought: 584,600 Hong Kong dollars. She even calculated the exchange rate, which translated to 475,900 RMB.

In other words, everything Teacher Xiao is enduring now is actually for something worth less than 500,000 yuan.

It’s not worth it, it’s not worth it!

But Xiao Xingyu was right, this wasn't a matter of money. There was no other way, as this was the only thing in the world that looked exactly like the broken Lang Hong.

Jiang Dazhu must have used this trump card to do whatever he wanted to Teacher Xiao. How despicable! That man's voice is so despicable!

Even if Xiao Xingyu doesn't like women, he should at least be worthy of someone like Dean Geng! How could this be possible? As soon as he heard the name Jiang Dazhu, he felt that Xiao Xingyu would suffer a lot...

Zhang Moyan was so overwhelmed with thoughts that she felt breathless and her heart ached.

Although it was not she who broke Lang Hong, at this moment, she felt that she and her little aunt had pushed Xiao Xingyu into the fire pit!

It would have been better if she turned back the moment her aunt dragged her to Zhenyunxuan, or if she had called out to Lin Yin to kick them out after entering Zhenyunxuan. At the very least, she should have tried her best to stop Xiao Xingyu when he proposed to go find Jiang Dazhu.

She hated and regretted it so much. She regretted that she was like a fool at that time and did not stop him and let him go.

She was even angry with Lin Yin.

What kind of relative is this? She knew Jiang Dazhu would make unreasonable demands on Teacher Xiao, but she didn't do anything to stop him. How could this be possible!
