Chapter 20 Jealousy



When Cecil opened the door cautiously, there was only a woman sitting blankly beside the bed in the dark room.

Seeing him come in, she pressed her temples, frowned, looked puzzled, and spoke with a tone of drunkenness and confusion: "......Cesar? Why are you here? Where is this? Why is it so noisy downstairs?"

The moonlight shone through the window and onto the bed, spreading on the woman's long golden hair behind her. Her dazed expression added a bit of cuteness to her. Her exquisite and perfect face was extremely moving even with this expression.

"Nothing, Miss Filia, aren't you asleep?"

But Cecil did not dare to relax and kept a wary look in his eyes, fearing that Filia in front of him was also possessed.

As soon as he entered the room, he felt a strong smell of death in the room. Something must have entered the room.

He looked around and heard Filia's puzzled voice again: "Mr. Cecil? What happened? I woke up when I heard some noise downstairs. Is there a power outage?"

She seemed to sober up a little, and slowly stood up with the help of the bedside table, but she was still staggering.

Cecil didn't sense any ghost breath from the other person, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

Just as he was about to reach out to help the woman who looked shaky, she raised her hand and refused: "It's okay, I'm awake now, but I'm a little confused about the current situation."

In fact, Yu Li was afraid that the man would get jealous and bite her again.

Seeing that she could stand up straight, Cecil paused, then slowly retracted his hand, his eyes were heavy and his tone was solemn: "Miss Filia, the situation is a bit complicated now. Qiao Xi is possessed by a ghost and is now in danger."

He paused for a moment before continuing: "This may be a little hard for you to believe, but this is..."

"No, I believe it."

Yu Li covered her head with her hands, her face looking somewhat distressed, "Qiao Di told me that before, but I didn't dare to believe it myself. But if you said it, then it must be true."

The speed of acceptance was too fast. Cecil had never met someone like Yu Li. He was stunned for a moment, and the words he had prepared were stuck in his throat. Then he came to his senses, nodded, and breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for your trust."

[Hahaha, you are stupid, my sister can even deceive ghosts. ]

[I'm sorry, Mr. Cecil, the person standing in front of you is the wife of the biggest boss. ]

[I am dying of laughter. Seriously. This is the first time I have seen an NPC like Filia. She is so interesting. Her acting skills are even better than some players.]

[If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten that this was an NPC. I almost thought she was a player. ]

[I'm the same as above, really, I've never seen such a plot. 】

[This is all thanks to our Boss Kashiwa’s love-induced brain attack (looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and sighing)]

Cecil handed Yu Li a cross with a serious expression: "Take this first. Let's go downstairs and gather together. We can solve it in the morning."

Dawn, sun, and light are always the best ways to deal with demons and ghosts.

Yu Li nodded and took it. Just as they were about to leave the room together, they heard a sudden commotion downstairs.

There seemed to be a loud bang as if a door had been slammed shut, and the sound of various seats colliding with each other. There were continuous sharp screams and cries from women, and someone was vaguely heard shouting, "Josie! Let go of Jody!"

Cecil's expression changed instantly.

Oh no! This is the evil spirit deliberately leading him away!

Before he could say anything, Yu Li spoke first: "Go down quickly and take a look. I'm still a little fuzzy and walk a little slowly. It should be no problem for me to follow you and go down slowly."

"Okay, you have to be careful too. The evil ghost may come up again." Cecil handed her a candle, then turned around and walked quickly downstairs.

Watching him leave, Yu Li put away her confused expression.

By candlelight, she looked down at the cross in her hand and placed it on the table beside her with a calm expression.

Evil ghost?

There was already one person following her.

-

And downstairs.

As soon as Cecil went downstairs, he saw a very chaotic scene. Jiang Xi was lying on the ground unconscious, with the blood on her head becoming increasingly thick. Qiao Ge was lying in her arms, also unconscious.

Hou Liang covered his shoulders and tried to walk out, his face looking extremely frightened.

Seeing Cecil coming down, he spoke as if he had seen a savior, pointing outside the door and saying in a panic: "Cesel, Jody was dragged out of the door by Qiao Xi!!"

Hou Liang's eyes were red, and he quickly recounted what had just happened: "Everything was fine, but suddenly Qiao Ge walked out like a possessed person and was about to open the door. Qiao Di was about to stop her, but Qiao Xi was outside the door. She grabbed Qiao Di's hair and walked out! Alia and I were hit by a chair."

"They must have gone to the lake!! Josie went to the lake before! Go save Jody!"

Cecil frowned and looked at the unconscious Jiang Xi on the ground. Just as he was about to speak, a white and slender hand had already reached out to Jiang Xi's mouth and nose.

The woman's brows were full of seriousness. Feeling that the person on the ground was still breathing, she breathed a sigh of relief, her frown loosened, and she looked up at them. Her gentle voice had the power to soothe people's hearts: "It's okay, she just fainted."

Yu Li stood up and said, "Mr. Cecil, you and Jody's father go over first. I'm here."

There are indeed evil spirits waiting for him to destroy.

Cecil could only nod and said with gratitude: "Okay, I'll leave this to you, Miss Filia."
