Humans have Three Souls and Seven Spirits, ghosts have Nine Netherworld Obsessions and Five Aggregates of Fire. But from the time I was born, I was missing an Earth Soul.
From a young age, I ...
Xiao He's home is in Jinsha Community.
Because it's an old neighborhood, the security situation here is terrible, with frequent thefts.
According to Su Mingyang, just a few days ago, the resident in the next unit left for work and his home was burgled. All his valuables were stolen, the door lock was pried open, and the scene was a mess.
When we arrived, we found a police car parked under one of the buildings, and an old woman was holding the police officer's hand, crying and saying that her money had been stolen from her home.
When going upstairs, you can still see groups of thugs wandering around in the hallway from time to time.
He had brightly colored hair, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and was swearing loudly.
"Are you sure Xiao He is home?" I asked Su Mingyang.
"Yes, I just sent her a message saying I'm at home."
At this point, Su Mingyang couldn't help but ask, "Could it be that you've made a mistake? How could Xiao He possibly use a curse?"
Luo Tianhe spat, "Why is it impossible? It's easy to draw a tiger's skin but hard to draw its bones. You can't see into a person's heart. How long have you been with her? How much do you know about her?"
Su Mingyang was about to retort when Luo Tianhe suddenly looked ahead and exclaimed in surprise.
"This place actually has such a rare find."
I followed his gaze and saw a woman gracefully walking towards the exit of another stairwell.
She was graceful and light-footed, like an elegant cat.
She wore a fitted black dress that perfectly accentuated her slender waist, and the hem of the dress swayed gently as she walked.
She wore a pair of red stilettos, and her long, wavy hair was casually draped over her shoulders, the ends of which were slightly curled and swayed gently in the breeze.
However, her makeup was too heavy.
But the more I look at this woman, the more familiar she seems.
I feel like I've seen this somewhere before.
"Wife."
With a smile, Su Mingyang opened his arms and rushed towards the beautiful woman, hugging her tightly.
Xiao He?
Luo Tianhe and I looked at each other, and we both saw surprise in each other's eyes.
We've met Xiao He before, she doesn't look like this.
Could it be that she had plastic surgery?
When Xiao He saw me and Luo Tianhe, his eyes darted away and his smile became somewhat stiff.
I guess it's because she was thinking about what happened at the karaoke bar last time.
However, since Su Mingyang was here, we all pretended nothing had happened and greeted each other with smiles, out of respect for him.
"The house is a bit messy, please don't mind."
Xiao He opened the door as he spoke.
As soon as the door opened, a strange smell wafted out.
"It smells so good."
Luo Tianhe sniffed hard.
"We burned sandalwood incense at home."
Xiao He stood in front of the door, leaning slightly forward, one hand on the shoe cabinet, the other hand raised, and very slowly pulled the heel of her high heel off her foot.
I don't know why, but when I saw Xiao He take off her shoes, my heart started pounding.
I clearly don't have a [Earth Soul], so I should be completely clueless about the emotions between men and women, but at this moment I feel inexplicably dry-mouthed and my throat feels like it's choked by something.
I glanced at Luo Tianhe instinctively.
Good heavens, his eyes widened, staring intently at Xiao He's beautiful legs encased in black stockings, his mouth slightly agape, completely mesmerized.
I nudged him several times with my elbow before he snapped out of his daze.
"Holy crap, that's amazing!"
Luo Tianhe swallowed hard, muttering to himself, his drooling expression resembling that of Pigsy seeing a ginseng fruit.
I glared at him and said in a low voice, "You shouldn't mess with your friend's wife. You better watch yourself."
This guy has been in the underworld for so many years, he's seen all kinds of beautiful women, so it's quite surprising that he would lose his composure like this.
Stepping into Xiao He's home, the scene before one's eyes can only be described as a complete mess.
In the living room, clothes and shoes were scattered everywhere, and the sofa was piled with all sorts of clutter.
Several pairs of stockings were casually draped over the sofa armrests.
Various cosmetic bottles were scattered on the ground, some of them even broken, with cosmetics spilled all over the place, emitting a pungent smell.
In the corner, a pile of snack bags and takeout boxes formed a small mountain.
I carefully sat down on the sofa, and as soon as I sat down, I felt something hard pressing against my bottom.
I reached under my bottom and touched something, and it turned out to be a uniquely shaped little dolphin.
It's really baffling that this thing was just carelessly tossed on the sofa.
Su Mingyang shrank his neck, his voice trembling slightly, and complained, "Wife, why did you turn the air conditioner on so high? It's so cold."
As he spoke, he crossed his arms over his chest and kept rubbing his arms.
Only after he pointed it out did I notice that it felt a bit cold as soon as I came in, but I had been distracted by other things and hadn't paid much attention to it.
Now, if I feel it carefully, the chill comes from all directions, and I can't help but shiver.
That's when I realized that Xiao He's house had two large air conditioners, and the temperature was set to the lowest setting.
The air vent was directly facing the sofa, blowing out cold air.
Su Mingyang reached for the air conditioner remote, wanting to turn the temperature up a bit.
The instant he pressed the button.
"Don't turn it off!" Xiao He suddenly screamed.
That sound startled us.
Su Mingyang also shuddered, his hand slipped, and he almost dropped the remote control.
She explained with a wronged expression, "I didn't turn it off, I just wanted to turn the temperature up a bit, it's too cold."
