The gossip-loving, complaint-filing Old Ancestor VS the hilarious, dandy Young Master (also the Grandmaster of the Xuanmen).
Qi Jing is the thousand-year-old ancestor of the Qi family, summon...
Qi Jing nodded. "Gu Xuanyi was very annoyed with me at that time. He thought I was not smart enough and insisted on proving to me that such a thing must exist. Then he ran away on his own and came back a few months later with a ghost in his hand."
"Uh....could it be that young master?"
"That young master." Qi Jing muttered, twitching his cola straw. "He was already very weak, and Gu Xuanyi forced him to talk about his love history. I didn't want to hear it, so I opened the ghost gate and sent him to reincarnation..."
Gu Zhou was speechless. "So you gave him the jade to make amends?"
"That's about right. Actually, if you count it, the young master was almost there by then, but he was caught by Gu Xuanyi, and then I sent him to reincarnate..." Qi Jing lowered his head, feeling heartbroken. He felt like he had separated a pair of affectionate ghosts.
Gu Zhou sighed, "Alright, I'll pay for the jade, just consider it as an apology."
"It was your turn to go out. It was Gu Xuanyi who caught the ghost, not me." Qi Jing said in a low voice. He didn't blame him in the first place.
Gu Zhou didn't want to dwell on this. He said, "But according to the timeline, shouldn't he have been reincarnated long ago? Or is this his second reincarnation?"
"The soul he has there is in very bad condition. Even if he goes to the underworld, he still needs to recuperate. Plus, he needs to wait in line for reincarnation, so the time is about the same."
Gu Zhou sighed, "That ghost is quite powerful. They haven't given up searching for it for over a hundred years, and they haven't been caught."
"Ordinary Taoist priests can't catch him. Plus, things were pretty chaotic for a long time afterwards. Who has the time to care about a harmless ghost?" Qi Jing held his chin up. "I just don't know what will happen to them in the future."
Gu Zhou didn't care about this. He took a wet tissue and wiped Qi Jing's hand clean. "If you have time to worry about others, why not think about me? We've been in a relationship for such a long time and there's no progress at all."
Qi Jing withdrew his hand instantly and looked at Gu Zhou angrily. He was indeed the reincarnation of Gu Xuanyi. Even without Gu Xuanyi's memory, his behavior was still the same. He only knew how to force him.
"You're still angry. I've already handed over my pocket money and given you my dowry. If you're still dissatisfied, tell me."
Qi Jing shook his head, "Anyway, I don't want to be with you until I'm sure."
"Why?" Gu Zhou asked, thinking of the ways of death Qi Jing had mentioned, "Are you still afraid that I will die?"
Qi Jing nodded, "Let's wait and see if I'm not sure."
"Then can you calculate it for me?"
"No." Qi Jing refused, "Gu Xuanyi won't let me."
Gu Zhou was unhappy. "You are calculating for me now, not for him. Why can't he give up just because he says so?"
Qi Jing insisted, "Gu Xuanyi said that every time I calculate it, I forget it."
"Forget?" Gu Zhou was unsure, "You didn't forget me, did you?"
"Yeah." Qi Jing sighed, "I don't know why, but that's what Gu Xuanyi said. If I figure out something bad and he doesn't remember you, Gu Xuanyi will be so angry that he will die."
Gu Zhou complained, "If that were the case, I would be pissed to death. Why can't you just let me calculate it?"
"I can calculate, but it's never good." Qi Jing muttered, and then sighed, "Forget it, I won't say anymore. It's annoying."
Gu Zhou also felt very upset. Qi Jing was not willing to be friends with him, and he couldn't let Qi Jing tell his fortune to dispel Qi Jing's uneasiness. What was going on?
Gu Zhou still couldn't help but complain, "Look, they are both ghosts and humans, and they get along so well with each other. Why can't Gu Xuanyi marry you in the afterlife?"
"He wants to come."
"Then what?"
"I pinned him down and beat him up..."
Gu Zhou sighed. Sure enough, there are differences between people. "Gu Xuanyi is not very good."
"You are even worse!"
"It hurts." Gu Zhou covered his heart, "Am I really not as good as Gu Xuanyi?"
"He lived longer than you. He was ninety-seven when he died, and he was a ghost for almost five hundred years."
Gu Zhou thought about it and raised his eyebrows proudly, "I'm young, so you should take better care of me and love me."
Qi Jing looked at him suspiciously, then cupped his cheeks and said, "Looking at my face, I'm younger than you."
"Honestly, how old is this body of yours?" Gu Zhou asked him. No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Qi Jing was very young, especially his face, which looked so youthful.
Qi Jing shook his head. "I don't know. It's been like this since I can remember. Big brother said I lost my memory after falling, and Gu Xuanyi said I'm not Big Brother's biological brother."
"Then you have quite a few secrets. You have no memory and no soul, and you are immortal yet prone to memory loss."
"I think so too, but I just don't know where my soul is. Maybe if I find it, I'll know everything."
"Didn't you do the math?"
"How to calculate your own fortune, don't calculate your own fortune."
Okay, Gu Zhou had no choice but to clean up the trash after Qi Jing finished the last piece of fried chicken. "Lunch break is quite long, do you want to take a nap?"
"No, I'm on my phone."
Qi Jing took out his phone and browsed it. He liked this more and more. There were all kinds of weird things. It was just that the beauty filter was too heavy and he couldn't see the face. Otherwise, it would be more fun.
Gu Zhou didn't bother him and took out a notebook from the study. He was now a goal-oriented man and had to make plans for the future. He couldn't always spend the family's money on buying things for Qi Jing. He wanted to use the family's funds to make a lot of money.
After browsing for an hour, Qi Jing's eyes felt a little uncomfortable. He rubbed his eyes, turned off his phone and looked at Gu Zhou's computer. The densely packed small characters made him dizzy.
Qi Jing asked him, "What are you looking at?"
"It's just some information to see which areas have more development prospects." Gu Zhou answered, sliding his finger on the mouse. Although the Gu family is rich, he can't do it blindly. He has to be sure.
Qi Jing didn't understand, "Why are you looking at these?"
"Start a company to make money." Gu Zhou answered confidently, reached out to pull Qi Jing over, and started talking to Qi Jing.
Not surprisingly, Qi Jing didn't understand a word and could only respond vaguely, looking at Gu Zhou with empty eyes.
Gu Zhou soon ran out of words. He reached out and pinched Qi Jing's cheek. "Just know that all the money I earn is yours."
"I can make money by myself." Qi Jing pulled his hand away with a serious expression. He was not a fool who knew nothing.
Gu Zhou raised his eyebrows, "Making money by fortune-telling?"
"Yeah, I'm pretty good."
"And then, how much does it cost to calculate a life?"
Qi Jing raised his finger, "Five hundred."
"Five hundred?"
Qi Jing nodded, "Five hundred is a lot."
Gu Zhou said disdainfully, "Five hundred was a lot before, but now it's just the price of a meal of fried chicken. Remember to raise the price later."
"Then how much of an increase is appropriate?" Qi Jing has never spent any money on his own since he came back, and has no idea about current concepts.
Gu Zhou thought for a moment and said, "If you meet me, I'll give you a price. If you want to settle it, just do it. Don't worry about the rest."
