After the plane landed, the Xia family sent a car to pick them up.
Ah Hu kept Ruan Mingying's instructions in mind: observe more and ask less, so as not to annoy the Third Miss.
Ruan Mingying was very anxious. She wanted to give Mingzhuo some freedom, but she was also afraid that Mingzhuo would end up in the hospital for no reason, just like last time.
What would she do if something happened to her younger sister?
However, being too strict will only push the younger sister further away. After all, she has missed sixteen years of companionship, and the cultivation of feelings cannot be achieved overnight.
The family was so anxious and worried that they couldn't even enjoy their dinner that night.
Mingzhuo, on the other hand, was completely relaxed. Dinner was served on Gu Xu's private jet, and it was just as good as what she would eat at home. She enjoyed her meal very much.
However, with every bite, she could taste the money, and she couldn't help but sigh once again, "Mr. Gu is really rich!"
It was already eleven o'clock when the car entered the Xia family villa.
The main building of the Xia family villa was brightly lit, and many people were walking around inside.
Ah Hu was puzzled. Was this a banquet? But if it was a banquet, it should have ended by now. Mr. Gu and Miss Gu's arrival at this time was far too late.
The door opened, and all the servants and bodyguards remained outside, so Ah Hu could only suppress his doubts and stay behind.
The moment the door opened, he saw that there were people dressed as monks and Taoist priests in the living room!
Ah Hu: "???"
I don't understand it at all.
As soon as He Wangyao entered the room, she stuck close to Gu Xu.
He kept his father's instructions in mind: the first rule to save his life was to cling to Gu Xu's leg, and the second rule was not to stay more than three meters away from Ming Zhuo!
Although those ghosts were targeting Xia Siru, who knows if she might find him more palatable and turn her attention to him instead?
Everyone in the room turned their attention to the three people who had entered.
Mingzhuo glanced around but didn't see any familiar faces, but someone laughed: "It's you."
He was a young man in his early twenties, with a calm and capable demeanor and a naturally smiling face. Mingzhuo was certain he didn't recognize him.
"Excuse me, may I ask who you are?"
Liang Xing was somewhat surprised, not expecting to see the little girl who had spoken so arrogantly that day. He introduced her with a smile, "I am Liang Xing from Hengyue Sect, hello junior sister."
Mingzhuo: "...Hello, I am Mingzhuo."
How did I inexplicably become a junior sister as soon as I arrived?
Liang Xing then turned his gaze to Gu Xu. He had a gut feeling that something was off about this person; his aura was cold and sinister, yet he also possessed an invulnerable holiness. However, cultivators often have special constitutions. "May I ask who this gentleman is...?"
Upon seeing his expression, Gu Xu guessed what he was thinking and said calmly, "I'm just an ordinary businessman."
Liang Xing suddenly realized that Ming Zhuo was in charge of these three.
He was worried that his junior sister was inexperienced, so he sincerely reminded her, "These three fierce ghosts today are quite unusual. Junior sister, don't be careless. Just follow behind me, and I will protect you."
The other five or six monks and Taoists pricked up their ears to listen to the conversation, and immediately understood what was going on.
This young girl with a delicate face poses no threat, but it is Hengyue Sect that makes them wary and cautious.
Xia Yuan said that whoever can resolve this matter and save his daughter's life will be rewarded with ten million yuan, or he can name any condition.
There is naturally a competitive relationship between peers, after all, who doesn't want to rise to prominence?
However, Liang Xing's insistence on bringing along a child made some people look down on him, thinking that he was blinded by lust and would not amount to much.
Xia Yuan came downstairs and immediately saw Gu Xu standing in the crowd. He was flattered and asked, "Mr. Gu, what brings you here?"
Gu Xu nodded slightly. "I'm here to bring A Yao and the Master. You don't need to entertain me. Business is important."
Xia Yuan's heart tightened, and he dared not be careless. He quickly invited everyone up.
Xia Siru's room was large and luxuriously decorated, showing that she was very pampered in this family.
The person is still conscious, sitting on the luxurious bed, hugging their shoulders and trembling uncontrollably.
The previous visitors had already shown their skills; the room was filled with signs of their presence, and even glutinous rice and other grains had been scattered around.
The sorceress also burned talisman ash water and told Xia Siru to drink it quickly.
Xia Siru was terrified and cooperated perfectly, silently picking up the bowl and preparing to drink it.
Mingzhuo raised his hand and pressed down on the bowl. "Miss Xia, wait a moment."
The sorceress immediately became displeased. "Everything should be done in order of arrival. I have already completed the exorcism ritual for Miss Xia. As long as she drinks this bowl of talisman ash water, evil spirits will not be able to approach. Don't ruin my ritual."
Mingzhuo smiled, picked up the bowl of talisman ash water, and splashed it on the ground.
The fortune teller was furious. Did this person even know the rules? Even if it was a competitor trying to steal business, this was unacceptable!
"you……"
Mingzhuo pointed to the ground, "Are you sure you want to give these yin worms to Miss Xia to drink?"
The person next to them shouted, "What's that?"
The sorceress looked down and saw the black talisman ash falling to the ground, rolling and twisting, turning into ugly, black worms.
She screamed in fright and sat down on the ground with a thud.
Xia Siru looked at the worms wriggling on the ground and smelled a stench like rotting corpses. The thought of almost drinking it made her feel nauseous.
"Who are you, and why are you trying to harm me?"
Mingzhuo: "It has nothing to do with her. It's not that she wants to harm you. It's just that these treacherous insects are good at taking advantage of loopholes."
This sorceress wasn't entirely a fraud, because she was born with psychic abilities and could see ghosts, but that was about all she could do. A simple trick could easily deceive her five senses.
