Chapter 41 Charlatan

"Hey charlatan, are you home?"

"Bang bang bang..."

Tang Wan'er pounded on the door, as if afraid the person inside wouldn't hear her.

While banging on the door, they also shouted "charlatan!"

"Hey charlatan, I know you're in there, hurry up and open the door!"

Perhaps because the noise disturbed the neighbors, a middle-aged woman from next door opened her door, glanced at them, and spoke in a very unpleasant tone.

"It's the middle of the night, aren't you sleeping? Aren't other people sleeping? It's really unlucky to be neighbors with this kind of charlatan!"

Gu Panzi awkwardly apologized to the woman, who huffed and sweared a few words before closing the door again.

Tang Wan'er knocked on the door for a long time but no one answered, so she had to pick up her phone and make a call.

The call was answered quickly, and then a woman's voice came from downstairs.

"Hello?"

"Hey charlatan, where are you? Aren't you home? I'm right outside your door!"

The footsteps downstairs grew closer, followed by a slightly cold voice, "Why are you here in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?"

Tang Wan'er said to the woman with a playful smile, "This..."

"Didn't I come here to patronize your business?"

The woman had a cold expression and was extremely beautiful, especially her fair skin, which seemed to glow.

That kind of pale, fair skin that everyone envies is not something everyone is born with.

As Gu Panzi watched the woman slowly approach, all she could think was, "Is she a celestial being descended to earth?" She couldn't help but marvel at how someone in this world could be so beautiful.

The woman didn't even glance at Gu Panzi, walked straight to her own door, and ignored Tang Wan'er as she took out her key and opened the door.

"Do I need you to patronize my business?"

Tang Wan'er pulled Gu Panzi inside.

Gu Panzi was a little scared when she went in because the house looked gloomy.

The house was filled with various Buddha statues, many of which were very ferocious, and there were also many talismans pasted on the walls and some objects.

This looks even scarier than scenes from horror movies.

Tang Wan'er sat down at one of the tables and started playing with an ornament in her hand.

"Hey charlatan, do you have a lot more fun stuff here? Want me to get one?"

Want to play a game?

The woman walked over, snatched the item from her hand, and placed it back on the table.

"You'd better not touch my things. If you get targeted by evil spirits, don't blame me for not warning you."

Tang Wan'er glanced at Gu Panzi, who was standing somewhat reserved beside her, and said, "By the way, I still don't know your name!"

Gu Panzi pushed up her black-rimmed glasses. She was rather introverted and not very good at getting along with people.

"My name is Gu Panzi."

"My name is Tang Wan'er, and this is my friend, the charlatan!"

The woman glared at her fiercely before turning her gaze to Gu Panzi. "Don't listen to her nonsense. My name is Shen Kun."

Gu Panzi smiled awkwardly, never expecting that this beautiful girl would have such a cool name.

Hello, it's nice to meet you!

Shen Kun ignored her polite words and began to carefully examine Gu Panzi.

"Is your luck really bad? You seem to be under a dark cloud, and you have a tough fate that brings misfortune to those who are close to you. So whether they are relatives, friends, or lovers, they will all stay away from you."
