Ming Zhuo put away his phone and glanced at Yang Juntong, whose face was full of anticipation. "Are you sure your agent will contact me if they find out about you?"
Yang Juntong said confidently, "Don't worry, Brother Jian and I have a life-or-death bond."
Although he had forgotten many things, he was certain that he remembered his agent was reliable!
Mingzhuo waited a while, thinking that the other party should have seen the text message, and then made another call.
A dozen seconds later, she said, "Oh, it's a friendship that started when the phone was off."
Undeterred, Yang Juntong had He Wangyao try several more times, finally confirming the fact.
Ming Zhuo saw that they had arrived at Qinghui Residence and shoved the emerald diamond bracelet and its box into He Wangyao's hands.
"I'll leave you here tonight; I'm going home to sleep."
She yawned, about to say something, when she turned her head and saw the car behind her stop, revealing Li Wenhe's face, and she immediately sobered up a bit.
"How did you get here?" She remembered that Li Wenhe's house wasn't on the way here, was it?
Li Wenhe said casually, "It's nothing. I just moved and wanted to let you know."
He's been having a major fight with his family lately. His father, who's rarely seen, has been coming home frequently, but it's all because of his illegitimate son and his mistress. It's really ironic.
He didn't want to deal with the man's endless harassment, so he simply gave the servants a day off and locked the villa gate.
I've temporarily moved to a nearby apartment-style villa, which is quite convenient as it's well-maintained and at least offers some peace and quiet.
Most importantly, it's very close to where Mingzhuo lives.
Pei Di opened the car door and walked over: "Boss, I'm here to sleep with Li Wenhe tonight to help him get used to his new place."
"Oh, that's good. You two should go back and get some sleep." Mingzhuo nodded.
Li Wenhe remained motionless: "What exactly happened? What do you mean by 'soul leaving the body'?"
His gaze fell on the box in He Wangyao's hand. "Was it brought back from Xiangshi along with this jade bracelet?"
This question is easy to explain: "Jade and other precious stones are spiritual objects produced by nature. Wearing them can nourish one's vital energy and naturally nourish one's soul."
Yang Juntong's memory was hazy, but he vaguely remembered that two forces were pulling him, and then he crawled into the jade and diamond bracelet.
After that, he followed Assistant He and flew all the way to Yunwu City.
Li Wenhe frowned: "So you're planning to go to Hong Kong? In any case, you have to take me with you this time."
He came along specifically to say hello and to make a statement, as he didn't want to be left behind every time.
These days he has been studying the profound, obscure and difficult scriptures left by his uncle very diligently, and he has never slacked off in drawing talismans, all in order to improve himself quickly and be able to put them to use.
Pei Di: "I'll do whatever the boss says!"
Gu Xu got out of the car and stood behind Ming Zhuo.
He didn't participate in the discussion; he was just listening. Yet, he easily became the center of attention.
Mingzhuo didn't find it strange, after all, he himself thought she was a person of exceptional talent and intelligence.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Gu Xu said calmly, "Let's go back to sleep tonight. Zhuozhuo is already very tired."
Mingzhuo nodded frantically. Mr. Gu was so considerate: "I'm going to sleep now. We can talk about even the most important things tomorrow, okay?"
After saying that, she yawned and walked into the courtyard of Qinghui Residence.
Li Wenhe glanced at Gu Xu, then had no choice but to get into the car and leave with Pei Di.
Yang Juntong had been very discreet in not saying anything, but seeing Mingzhuo leave, he felt a sudden surge of anxiety.
It feels like something bad is about to happen; I have a chill down my spine.
"No, how could she just leave me like that? The night is so long, isn't she afraid something might happen? That's how it's always portrayed in movies and TV shows!"
He Wangyao: "I have a lot of experience with this. When you find that there is a conflict between the TV series and Ruan Mingzhuo's approach, listen to Ruan Mingzhuo."
Yang Juntong: "...Who is Ruan Mingzhuo?"
"I'm the boss!" He Wangyao proudly puffed out her chest.
Gu Xu: "..."
Although he couldn't see or hear what Yang Juntong was saying, he could roughly guess what it was.
He couldn't help but remind her, "Although Luowu Residence is impervious to all evil, it is not absolutely safe. Zhuozhuo must have put something in the box."
He Wangyao opened it and found a talisman inside.
He took a picture and was about to send it to ask when Mingzhuo sent him a voice message.
"Oh, right, I put a high-grade defensive talisman in the box. It can withstand three attacks. Keep him in the bracelet and he'll be fine tonight."
He Wangyao felt much more at ease after hearing this.
"Since the boss says it's nothing, then it's nothing. Okay, go wash up and go to bed!"
——
Inside a high-end VIP ward in Xiangshi.
Several Taoist priests formed hand seals to protect the magic array, but the jade tablet continued to vibrate more and more violently.
The agent, Brother Jian, was so nervous that his heart was in his throat, and he was almost in tears.
In the past two days, he has been racking his brains to think of all the people he and Yang Juntong had offended, listing one suspect after another, and then eliminating them one by one.
Competition among peers for resources and endorsements is inevitable, but Yang Juntong doesn't have a monopoly in the entertainment industry, so there's no need to go to such lengths.
Besides, he had investigated and it shouldn't have been done by a competitor.
This is very confusing. Who exactly is determined to kill Yang Juntong?
——
Yang Juntong lay peacefully inside the bracelet.
He is a living soul, very sensitive to his surroundings. From the moment he entered this villa, he felt that it was very clean and gave him a sense of peace.
