Chapter 129 The Little Wang Next Door
"Puff—cough cough cough! Is there something wrong with her—puff cough—"
I almost choked to death on the tofu.
Qin Qinsen couldn't suppress his laughter, but considering that the elders of the Teng family had already gone to bed, he didn't dare to laugh out loud. He could only make a sound like a leaking air, and his body kept shaking. It was obvious that Shangguan Yue's behavior hit his funny bone.
Teng Su pressed and rubbed his brows with his fingers, trying to ease the bad feeling. "I told her she's mentally ill, but you didn't believe me."
Just as one person was laughing silently and the other was feeling helpless, the person involved called.
"Ahem, Shangguan."
Not knowing what was said on the other side, Qin Qinsen's smile became even more pronounced. He even bit his lower lip while Shangguan Yue was speaking to suppress the laughter that was about to come out.
[…I heard you laugh.]
"No, I'm eating. You heard it wrong."
You're just laughing!
The first thing Shangguan Yue did when she returned home was to take off her bracelet and lock the doors and windows, as if she was worried that Luo Nanchen would turn into Spider-Man and crawl into her house along the wall.
It was clearly a plot that was supposed to be about something that was definitely going to kill someone, so why did it suddenly jump to a story about a domineering CEO and pure love? She was so scared that she suddenly had an idea and said she had a crush on Xiao Wang.
She just didn't believe that Luo Nanchen would castrate himself for love.
What's more, that person doesn't like her at all.
He suddenly grabbed her hand in the car and said things like, "My heart was moved the first time I saw her," "No one has ever touched my heart like this," and "Every move of hers is pure and lively."
Thinking of Luo Nanchen's pretended affection just now, Shangguan Yue clenched the curtains tightly and almost vomited.
After the murder at her previous residence, she had moved to her current apartment with the help of Fang Nanxing and Yun Yao. It wasn't too close to the city center, but it had convenient transportation, and the property management was well-equipped with security and strict management, making it very friendly to single women.
But now, through the sixth-floor window, you can still see the Bentley parked on the street and the man leaning on the car door.
Shangguan Yue leaned against the wall, looking sideways at the street through the white gauze curtains. Luo Nanchen was on the phone, not knowing what he was saying. He kicked the car door in frustration.
Then, he glared fiercely at where Shangguan Yue was.
That look seemed to pierce glass and shatter her eyes. It was filled with viciousness and calculation—not the behavior of someone who had failed in their confession.
Holding the phone in her right hand, Shangguan Yue's voice trembled unconsciously when she thought of Luo Nanchen's eyes before he left.
"He...seems to know which room I live in."
The look just now was very precise, without any hesitation.
But besides Fang Nanxing and Yun Yao, only Qin Qinsen and perhaps Teng Su knew about her move. These people were not big mouths, and they would not tell Luo Nanchen where she moved to.
Qin Qinsen's voice came from the receiver:
"Don't worry. If he's capable of pulling off these stunts, he'll definitely have a way of finding out where you live. Your home is safe. Is the talisman I asked you to put on the door still there?"
Shangguan Yue hurriedly moved the decorative pendant hanging behind the door, revealing the yellow talisman pasted on the door. Seeing that it was intact, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, it's the same as always."
[That's fine. This talisman can ward off evil and ensure safety. No one with malicious intentions can even enter the door.]
With Qin Qinsen's repeated assurances, Shangguan Yue finally put her mind at ease.
Just thinking about going to work again tomorrow and facing Luo Nanchen made Shangguan Yue feel very uncomfortable and had no motivation to go to work at all. But Fang Nanxing and Yun Yao's persuasion kept lingering in her ears - if you don't solve the problem after you have discovered it, it will be too late when the chronic disease breaks out completely.
After coaxing herself to wash up and lie down in bed, Shangguan Yue turned on the starry sky light.
Looking at the stars on the ceiling, she tapped her chest slowly, her eyelids gradually becoming heavy. Before falling asleep, Shangguan Yue's mind suddenly flashed something, but she was too tired to catch that thought.
Let’s talk about it tomorrow, it can be solved.
"...Who on earth gave Luo Nanchen such great advice? He looks like he's about to have diarrhea after eating something wrong, but suddenly becomes constipated when he gets to the door. Hahahahahaha - what's wrong with Shangguan Yue's brain? This is a brilliant description."
Qin Qinsen rolled over with laughter while holding his cell phone.
At this moment, he was lying on the sofa in his home, next to him were Boss Huang, who was rarely away from Siyun Hall, and Jiang Wei who had come to visit suddenly.
"Master Qin." Jiang Wei didn't know what was going on, but that didn't stop him from stating his purpose. "A few months before Yuxia Mountain was sealed, someone taught She Yizhi a forbidden technique that required him to sacrifice nearly a hundred lives every five years. Otherwise, the gates of the underworld would open wide, and evil spirits would wreak havoc on the world. She Yizhi always wanted to prove that he was more suitable to be a ferryman than Yu Li'an, so he reported the incident and began planning to seal off Yuxia Mountain. The technique She Yizhi used to seal memories would be unlocked every five years, and once the forbidden technique was completed, the memories would be sealed again."
Qin Qinsen lowered his head and sent a message, saying, "Tell me something I don't know."
Jiang Wei understood what he wanted to hear and looked troubled. "I can't find out who it was. I just know there was such a person. There are no photos, no surveillance footage, no records at all."
"Have you asked other people in Xuanmen?"
“I have no recollection.”
"Then why did you ask Boss Huang to bring you here?" Qin Qinsen put away his phone and looked at the uninvited guest.
He was quite smart. He knew that Huang had a good relationship with Boss Huang, so he pulled him away to prevent him from closing the door to visitors.
Jiang Wei naturally knew that Qin Qinsen was not as easy to talk to as he appeared, so he immediately stated his purpose, "She Yizhi has an accomplice who has contacted you before."
Qin Qinsen was confused. "No, I haven't met many people like that."
"You worked at Luo's, didn't you?"
Jiang Wei's words drew a sneer from Boss Huang.
"Our Master Qin was very impressed by the days when he got up early to punch in for security." Boss Huang couldn't help laughing when he recalled the days when Qin Qinsen was in a hurry to get to work at 8 am.
After kicking the heartless Huang Baopi, Qin Qinsen signaled Jiang Wei to continue.
"He refused to say who it was, but we found out that although the Luo family and the Linhai Group were collaborating, they were also wary of each other. Each side sought help from other masters. Linhai found Wu Liangqi, no one else. But the Luo family reportedly contacted many people in the Xuanmen sect, and even contacted Ning'an Temple."
Qin Qinsen said disdainfully, "It's clear you really don't understand. You actually dared to go to Ning'an Temple. You're not afraid that Master Fahui will point out all your little tricks and perform a physical salvation."
Besides his profound Buddhist knowledge, Master Fahui's most powerful attribute was his eyes. Since childhood, Master Fahui had practiced the secrets of Buddhism, using his eyes to read minds and remain immune to all evil. Those with excessively evil intentions were rendered indistinguishable from nakedness in his eyes.
That's why Qin Qinsen said that Luo knew nothing.
After the Yuxia Lake incident, Qin Qinsen had a completely new understanding of the monks in Ning'an Temple - Ning'an Temple was basically full of warrior monks! He also didn't know that the little monks were cute and wouldn't chase ghosts with big clubs.
Recalling the scenes from the temple's surveillance footage, Jiang Wei's lips curled up slightly, "Yes, Master Bufang asked them to... leave."
"So which immortal is hiding in the Luo family that I haven't discovered even after I've come into contact with him?"
"Do you still remember...Little Wang next door?"
