The next day, Pi Sheng woke up with messy hair, feeling utterly devastated. He'd been having nightmares for most of the night! The dreams were so vivid; he didn't even know what was chasing him.

Logically, he shouldn't be afraid of anything, but he just felt terrified and extremely frightened, as if something terrible was making him tremble uncontrollably.

Fortunately, the morning sunlight shone in, and he barely managed to wake up.

Murong Xue had gotten up early and had just finished applying skincare products. Since she wasn't planning on going out, she hadn't put on makeup.

She was startled when she came out of the bathroom and saw Pi Sheng's face.

"Ah Sheng, what's wrong? You look terrible! You actually have dark circles under your eyes?"

Murong Xue curiously leaned over to take a look.

Pi Sheng blinked, his mind still a little foggy.

"I...no way? I just had a dream, and I'm a little tired."

"You look terrible. Why don't you take a break today and not go to the office?"

After hearing this, Pi Sheng thought for a moment and shook his head, "I have an appointment with a client today, I have to go."

He circulated his divine power to recover, and soon he was full of energy again, but his complexion was still not good, as if his spirit had been damaged in some way.

Pi Sheng looked in the mirror and saw that his complexion was not good. He thought about it and worried that the client might think he was nervous and not confident about the deal, which would make things difficult.

"Ah Xue, how about you do my makeup too, so my complexion looks better?"

"Huh? Really? Are you sure you're alright? Should I send Dad instead?"

"It's okay, I can do it. I'll come back to rest early after I sign the contract."

"Okay, then. Remember to call me if anything comes up."

As Murong Xue spoke, she pulled Pi Sheng to sit in front of the dressing table, took out her makeup bag, and gave Pi Sheng a little boost in complexion.

"My wife's cooking is really good!" Pi Sheng praised her repeatedly, then got up, hugged and kissed Murong Xue before letting go to change into his suit.

Murong Xue covered her mouth and laughed, then went to Pi Yuhan's room to check on the child.

Pi Sheng thought last night was just an accident, so he didn't take it to heart and leisurely drove out the door.

Two hours later, Pi Sheng finally completed the journey that usually takes twenty minutes, after a difficult walk.

Only now did he believe what Shan You meant by bad luck.

My car broke down, my tires went flat, I was rear-ended, I was staged for an accident, and I even ran a red light because of a sudden malfunction. I was caught by the traffic police, got points deducted and fined, and have to go to the traffic police station to handle it another day.

It was truly a journey of overcoming numerous obstacles before finally arriving at the company.

His assistant was practically on the verge of a breakdown waiting at the company. Luckily, the client was delayed due to traffic, otherwise things would have been much more difficult.

As soon as Pi Sheng arrived at the underground parking lot, his waiting assistant stopped his car and told him to take the elevator up while he went to park.

Pi Sheng knew it was too late, so he immediately got out of the car and hurried to take the elevator, but he stopped just as he was about to enter the elevator.

Given how unlucky he is today, it's quite possible that the elevator will suddenly break down.

He thought for a moment, then turned and walked towards the stairwell. There were no surveillance cameras in the stairwell, and after checking that no one was around, he flew up as fast as he could.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he reached his floor.

He took out his phone and found Dan Yu.

Who on earth is messing with me?!

After a while, Dan You replied.

—Guess why I can't say? Is it because I'm having bad luck? (Written by Shang Yun)

—It's very upsetting.

—Think about whether you did anything wrong or offended anyone?

Pi Sheng was frustrated. He had been working diligently lately and hadn't offended anyone. Besides, the only person who could contact Shan You was a mythical beast.

What sin has he committed against any mythical beast?

—I don't know. I'm busy with work every day and haven't seen any mythical beasts except for Qi Jingtai. Could it be him? Impossible! I just started working with him and I haven't provoked him!

—I don't know. If you're paid to do something, you're not going to ask questions like that.

Pi Sheng pondered for a while, then suddenly remembered yesterday's dream and the feeling of fear.

Depend on!

Bai Ze's passive talent will make all beasts tremble.

No, Bai Hao is sick in the head!

When did he provoke Bai Hao?

But... it's okay, Bai Hao wouldn't put him through that.

—Bai Hao, right?

——???(???ω??)????！

Pi Sheng understood; it was Bai Hao, that black-hearted beast.

Pi Sheng immediately video-called Bai Hao.

Bai Hao was leisurely teaching Bai Moxuan new knowledge when he received a video call. He glanced at it and hung up immediately.

It's just bad luck for him; it won't interfere with his important business.

Pi Sheng made more than a dozen calls but no one answered, which made him extremely angry. Just then, his assistant came up and said that the client had arrived.

Pi Sheng put his phone away for the time being, as he was going to visit the Qin residence after he finished his work.

Bai Hao's phone rang more than a dozen times. Bai Muqiu blinked, used his divine power, and then learned about the trouble Bai Hao had caused Pi Sheng. However, strangely, he didn't know the reason for it.

Long Chengxiu was training the cubs in the yard, while Qin Nan was making snacks to send to Geng Chen and Shen Yan.

Bai Muqiu leaned closer and asked, "Brother Hao, how did Pi Sheng offend you? I didn't even know about this. What happened?"

Bai Hao glanced at him indifferently. Not to mention Bai Muqiu, even if it weren't for Bai Moxuan, he wouldn't know.

"It's nothing, it concerns Ranran. He has Qin Nan's bloodline, so naturally you wouldn't know."

"Oh, right!" Bai Muqiu suddenly realized, "The little cub is not only Bai Ze, but also... uh, has Brother Nan's bloodline. So, is the cub you're raising now Bai Ze? Or is it like Brother Nan?"

"It should also be Bai Ze."

"Could it be Brother Nan?"

"It shouldn't be. Anan was born to face a calamity, while I was born to fulfill a destiny. The calamity has passed, so it won't be."
