Chapter 151 Like Ants
“Knock, knock, knock!”
With trembling hands, Huo Yuheng suppressed his discomfort and knocked on Huo Qinghuang's door.
If he didn't interrupt the conversation between the master and servant, he would probably wake up tomorrow morning to see the explosive news that all the members of the Qiu family had died inexplicably.
"Go open the door."
Inside the room, Huo Qinghuang glanced at the door calmly and instructed Yu Niang.
“Crunch!”
The door opened, and as soon as Huo Yuheng walked in, he saw Huo Qinghuang sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking at him with a smile.
Just then, the door closed with a click.
Only then did he realize that it was the female ghost Yu Niang who opened the door, and he felt a chill on his back.
But he was also a man who had seen big scenes, and he didn't want to lose his tall image as an old father in front of his daughter, so he forced himself to calm down, coughed twice, and said: "Qing Huang, are you free now? I have something to discuss with you."
As he spoke, he moved in the direction of Huo Qinghuang without leaving a trace.
These ghosts and monsters are so scary. It’s safer to be with my daughter.
Huo Qinghuang suppressed her smile, nodded, and said, "Just tell me what you want to say, don't hesitate."
"Well, okay, here's the thing. Director Long from the 749th Bureau wants to do a deal with you. If possible, he wants to meet with you in person."
Huo Yuheng didn't beat around the bush and spoke directly.
Then, he recounted everything he had seen and heard at the 749 Bureau today.
"The treasure trove of Bureau 749?"
Huo Qinghuang seemed to be thinking about something, then nodded, her lips slightly curved: "Since Director Long wants to meet, then let's meet."
The 749th Bureau should be the highest department in charge of aliens in the Dragon Kingdom. She wanted to see what good things could be found in the treasure house of a country.
"You agree?"
Huo Yuheng said in surprise.
He was a little surprised.
After all, in his opinion, making an amulet should be a very time-consuming task. Director Long wanted a large amount of money, and he originally thought that Huo Qinghuang would not make the effort.
Unexpectedly, she agreed immediately without any hesitation.
"It's a simple matter, why don't you agree?"
Huo Qinghuang raised her eyebrows slightly and asked back.
It is not difficult to make an amulet. As long as there is a carrier, she only needs to inject spiritual power.
Of course, the reason why the amulets she made were so powerful was that her spiritual power was tainted with a hint of divinity, making it far more powerful than ordinary people could imagine.
Seeing that Huo Qinghuang had no intention of forcing him, Huo Yuheng finally felt relieved and said, "In that case, I will contact Director Long right away."
After saying that, he left.
After he left, Yu Niang showed up and looked at Huo Qinghuang's indifferent face, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself.
"Anything else?"
Huo Qinghuang raised her eyelids slightly and asked lightly.
"Uh, that..."
Yu Niang hesitated for a moment, but still said, "Can you give me one of the amulets made by the master?"
Although she is a thousand-year-old evil spirit, her soul is trapped in the painting of ladies and is not free.
It’s okay inside the picture, there is no external interference and the strength is not affected.
But once the Ladies' Painting appeared, his strength dropped sharply. Otherwise, if he had dealt with Master Liu in the Qiu family, he would never have been able to come to the Huo family to cause trouble.
"Is a mere amulet worth your concern? Take it!"
Huo Qinghuang shook his head, took out a talisman and threw it to Yu Niang.
"Thank you, Master!"
Yu Niang took it quickly and hung it around her neck impatiently.
With the amulet, it means that she is a ghost with an owner. She can go to more places and even if she meets those stinky Taoist priests, she can escape safely.
"As long as you work for me faithfully, you will get the benefits."
Huo Qinghuang said lightly.
"Yes, Yu Niang would never dare to disobey the master's order."
Yu Niang lowered her head respectfully.
Although she had only recently recognized Huo Qinghuang as her master, Yu Niang had already deeply understood her methods.
This is a cold-hearted person. Apart from caring a little about the Huo family, anyone else is like an ant to her.
Especially towards ghosts, they have no mercy at all. If they are not satisfied with something, they will swallow them up in one gulp, leaving the ghosts no place to seek justice, let alone the next life.
"Um."
Huo Qinghuang nodded, closed his eyes and continued to transfer spiritual energy.
…
As night falls and the lights come on, the prosperous imperial capital is ablaze with lights, creating a lively scene.
A stretched Bentley slowly drove up to the entrance of a five-star hotel owned by the Huo family.
The car door opened, Liu got out and stood respectfully beside the car.
Huo Yuheng then got out of the car and looked inside with a smile.
The doorman's eyes lit up and he ran over happily: "Good evening, Chairman!"
As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but drift towards the inside of the car.
The only person who can be treated like this by the chairman must be a lady!
However, the next moment, the doorman's eyes froze.
A slender girl in a black dress got out of the car.
The girl is tall and looks like a fairy walking out of a painting. Her temperament is as cold as frost, as if she is out of tune with the surrounding environment.
The girl is beautiful, but her age doesn’t match that of their chairman’s wife!
Could it be that the chairman is having an affair? !
The gossip fire in the doorman's heart suddenly burned fiercely, and when he looked at Huo Qinghuang again, there was a bit of contempt in his eyes.
What’s the point of being beautiful? Aren’t you still the mistress of a married man?
Huo Qinghuang glanced at him indifferently, with a slightly cold look in her eyes.
Huo Yuheng was unaware and said to Huo Qinghuang, "Director Long is already waiting inside. We shouldn't be too slow, so let's go in quickly."
Huo Qinghuang nodded slightly, and just as he was about to raise his foot, a short-haired man in casual clothes came up and said with a smile:
"Deputy Minister Huo, Miss Huo, Director Long is waiting inside. Please follow me."
"Oh? Do you know what we are here for?"
Huo Qinghuang glanced at him with interest. This guy with a flat head didn't look like an ordinary person, but rather quite smart.
"Hey, I'm not really sure about this, but Director Long told me to treat you well and make you feel at home. If you have any other requests, feel free to ask."
The short-haired guy grinned and said.
Huo Qinghuang stopped, glanced at him speechlessly, and said, "If I remember correctly, this hotel is owned by the Huo family, right?"
"It's the Huo family's property. If you like it here, Dad will give this hotel to you and put it in your name."
Huo Yuheng responded promptly, showing his wealth and power.
"Well, maybe our director was so busy that he forgot..."
The guy with the flat head dug his toes into the ground awkwardly, wishing he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
What's the big deal about entertaining people on their territory?
"Let's go. Director Long is a very important person and has a lot of things to do. We can't keep him waiting for too long."
Huo Qinghuang waved her hand and walked into the hotel.
Huo Yuheng and Liu followed.
The guy with the flat head was immediately delighted and trotted after him.
The doorman was left standing there dumbfounded, wishing he could slap himself twice.
