Making Money Hard? I'm Raking It In By Drawing Souls in the Human World

Zhong Wan's life philosophy: Being poor is scarier than ghosts! A middle-aged leftover woman who has been unemployed for a year and is about to live on the streets, Zhong Wan gritted her teeth ...

Chapter 227 Is it some kind of gullible little thing?

Chapter 227 Is it some kind of gullible little thing?

Pei Xingyu's shout was undisguised, and his excited voice instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Fortunately, there were few people around the south gate of the base at that time.

The few staff members who happened to pass by recognized Pei Xingyu, and upon seeing this, they simply smiled kindly and did not approach to disturb him.

Zhong Wan smiled and turned her head to look. She immediately saw Pei Xingyu running towards her like an excited husky, his target Zhong Suisui on her shoulder.

Sure enough, as soon as Pei Xingyu ran up to her, before she could even stand up straight, she eagerly reached out her hands: "Quick, Sui Sui, let your brother hug you!"

Meow~

Zhong Suisui called out demurely, tilted her head and rubbed her cheek against Zhong Wan's, then leaped and landed precisely in Pei Xingyu's arms.

"Aww~ Sui Sui!"

Pei Xingyu was overjoyed, feeling instantly healed from all the suffering he had endured these past few days.

He excitedly lifted Zhong Suisui up with both hands, then lowered his head and buried it in its fluffy, chubby little body, taking a deep breath.

【Meow! 】

Zhong Suisui immediately bristled. It hurriedly stretched out its four paws and tried to push Pei Xingyu's big head, but it didn't use too much force or make a sudden movement. Instead, its throat was full of helpless gurgling sounds.

Zhong Suisui tilted her little head, looked at Zhong Wan, and called out in a wronged tone.

Meow~

Zhong Wan watched the interaction between the person and the cat and laughed happily, but showed no intention of intervening to save the cat.

Even Su Mu, who was standing next to her, couldn't help but show a faint smile on his face.

Suddenly, she noticed the fleeting bright spot.

The smile on Su Mu's face vanished instantly, and his whole body tensed up.

Her eyes sharpened instantly. She glanced around, then abruptly turned her head, her gaze instantly becoming piercing as she looked at the slightly swaying shadow of the tree.

With a slight movement, she instantly shielded Zhong Wan completely.

Almost at the same moment she looked over, she heard a rustling sound.

That sound...

Su Mu frowned slightly: "Someone is taking pictures secretly."

Her voice was completely calm, and she didn't make any big movements. She simply looked up and pressed the miniature communicator next to her ear, whispering, "Chen Mo, at two o'clock, on the sidewalk tree, someone is taking pictures. Take care of it."

Pei Xingyu, who was still holding Zhong Suisui and sucking on her breath, froze upon hearing this, and the smile on his face instantly vanished.

He's a person who works in the entertainment industry, and he has an instinctive wariness of cameras and paparazzi.

He instinctively pulled Zhong Suisui into his arms, and just as he raised his hand to lower the brim of his hat, he realized that he hadn't had time to put it on at all, so he could only turn to the side in frustration.

Zhong Wan was genuinely surprised to hear this. She curiously followed Su Mu's gaze, her eyes filled with confusion.

Su Mu seemed to mistakenly think she was nervous, and without turning his head, he whispered to reassure her, "It's okay, Chen Mo and the others will handle it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhong Wan saw movement under a tree across the street. Suddenly, a man wearing a gray cotton coat and a black baseball cap staggered out, as if he had been pushed.

Chen Mo followed him out. Chen Mo raised his hand and casually placed it on the other person's shoulder, but the force was not to be underestimated.

He deftly took the camera from the man's hand, then half-pushed, half-invited him to a regular black minivan parked by the roadside.

The car door slid open, and Chen Mo quickly exchanged a glance with the person inside before stuffing the person and camera inside.

The car door slammed shut, and the car was quickly driven away.

The whole process was quick and efficient, taking only a dozen seconds, as if nothing had happened.

Pei Xingyu stared in disbelief, clutching Zhong Suisui tightly in his arms. He turned to look at Su Mu, swallowing hard. "Sister Su... Su Mu, is that all?"

Su Mu glanced at him calmly and said casually, "Yes, they will handle it and make sure the photos don't get leaked."

Zhong Wan breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. Although she didn't really care about being photographed, it was still good to have less trouble.

Especially with Pei Xingyu,

His constitution...

Zhong Wan shook her head and looked at Pei Xingyu with a teasing smile, "Looks like a top star is a top star after all. Even picking up someone is such a big... well, quite a fuss."

Pei Xingyu shook his head helplessly upon hearing this: "Auntie, please stop teasing me."

As he spoke, he glanced in the direction the car had gone and complained with lingering fear, "I'm almost traumatized now. It feels like there are cameras everywhere I go."

Su Mu glanced at him calmly and added, "Occupational risks, you'll get used to it."

Her tone was calm, as if she had just said it casually.

Seeing Pei Xingyu saying he was still shaken but holding Zhong Suisui and rubbing her repeatedly, Zhong Wan smiled and said, "Alright, let's stop talking here and go back to the hotel."

【Meow! 】

Zhong Suisui nodded vigorously in agreement, and her small body disappeared instantly.

Pei Xingyu stared blankly at his empty hands, then quickly turned around and looked around: "Sui Sui?"

"Where is Sui Sui?"

Her previously relaxed expression turned anxious: "Auntie, Sui Sui is missing!"

Seeing this, Zhong Wan quickly patted the large pocket on her down jacket to indicate, "Don't worry, Sui Sui is here, she's not lost."

Upon hearing this, Pei Xingyu quickly looked over and, seeing her bulging pockets and the little cat ears peeking out from them, breathed a sigh of relief: "Really, you scared me!"

"That little guy appeared way too suddenly!"

【Hmph (¬︿¬☆).】

Zhong Suisui was not happy to hear this, and gave a haughty snort, her ears instantly shrinking back.

Pei Xingyu shook his head with a helpless smile, then turned around and eagerly opened the back door of the car: "Auntie, Sister Su Mu, please get in the car."

Several people boarded the car one after another and closed the doors.

While fastening his seatbelt, Pei Xingyu looked at Zhong Wan in the rearview mirror and asked, "Auntie, isn't Sui Sui stuffy in your pocket the whole time?"

【Meow! I won't get bored!】

Zhong Suisui's little head popped out from the edge of the pocket in a flash, her two little paws clutching at the bag, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Pei Xingyu. [Mommy's pocket is so warm!]

Well, it probably didn't feel cold outside either.

However, Zhong Suisui really liked this small space. When she nestled inside, she felt both safe and warm.

Pei Xingyu had no idea what it was thinking, but looking at its bright eyes, he couldn't help but tempt it, "My pocket is bigger than your mother's, Sui Sui, do you want to come in and take a look?"

【don't want】
