Chapter 175: Sleight of Hand



"You're right. Look, isn't that your territory? Anyone who went there would be beaten. Only your apprentice can squat there and ask for money." The person opposite shook his head.

Old Liu looked towards his former territory and saw a young man squatting there in a daze.

In the past, he would have kicked the person out immediately. But now, he didn't have the time or the leisure to do so.

"Hey, I gave up that territory a long time ago. I don't want it anymore. If you want it, it's yours."

"No, I don't want to. I have to go to work now!" The person next to him waved his hand quickly. Now that he has a decent job, he doesn't want to continue standing by the wall in the sun with a tattered cotton jacket and doing nothing.

After experiencing life and death again and again, he found that the past days were too boring and simply wasted. Now, he has the opportunity to start over, and he must cherish it.

"Old Liu, why don't you talk to that guy?"

Old Liu looked disdainful. "What am I saying? There are people looking for work everywhere right now, and yet he comes here to sit there in a daze. Either he's mentally ill or he simply doesn't want to do this. Either way, I'm not interested. Okay, I'm in a hurry, I'm leaving!"

"Oh, I'm almost late too!"

After the two left, Duan Wei, squatting by the city wall, stared blankly at everything before him. Previously, he had approached Xu Xuening to remarry her, but was beaten. After that, he noticed that Xu Xuening was always followed by two bodyguards, so he gave up the idea. He wanted to go back and look for the old woman again, but found that she hadn't left him anything and was thrown out.

He walked confusedly on the street, unable to figure out why he had ended up like this.

Duan Wei, who once again wanted to find a woman to support him, found that the current era was so difficult.

Everyone was busy looking for a job, and no woman was interested in him.

After not showering for over a month, Duan Wei was even chased here as a beggar. He had thought about finding a good job before. With his good looks and his eloquence, it would be a good idea to find a daughter of a leader to coax her.

But the strange thing is that no matter how many times he looked for them, those companies that wanted to arrest people on the street just pushed him away as if they couldn't see him.

He even danced in front of others without letting them see him.

Could it be...that he turned into a ghost?

This is impossible! How could a ghost not be afraid of the sun? How could a ghost be hungry?

Duan Wei thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure out what went wrong. However, he really needed a job to provide him with food and drink!

Those people pretended not to see him, so he simply ran into the kitchen to get food. But when the people in the kitchen saw him, they beat him out with sticks.

Duan Wei, who was desperate, finally found this place and followed a group of wild dogs to find food.

Duan Wei was biting a piece of steamed bun while thinking about the reason. He couldn't figure out whether he was alive or dead.

Looking at Duan Wei's expression, Wei Zizhou stared at him for a long time and nodded. He took out his phone and called the other party.

"Something?" Xie Yan was discussing with Xu Xuening about going out to play during the holiday. When he saw the call from his love rival, he suddenly felt depressed.

"It's okay, I'm hanging up." Without waiting for Wei Zizhou to speak, Xie Yan was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait, who said I was fine? No, I'm fine."

Wei Zizhou quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Are you okay? If you are, go to the hospital. If not, don't bother me." After saying that, Xie Yan added, "Don't bother my wife either."

I think the latter is the key point! Wei Zizhou thought speechlessly.

He quickly opened his mouth and told Duan Wei what he had seen. If he could stand in front of Xie Yan, he would definitely be able to judge whether this matter was related to Xie Yan.

"You did this, didn't you?" Wei Zizhou asked uncertainly.

"What do you want to ask? Since you can see him, if you want to save him, go ahead. I'm not stopping him, I'm just teaching him a lesson for a few months."

After hearing Xie Yan's implicit admission of what he had done, Wei Zizhou became even angrier. "I knew you were playing a trick on me by getting married that day!" He wondered why everyone around him looked at him with sympathy, but he didn't understand what they were talking about. Xie Yan's wedding was clearly downstairs from him, yet he couldn't see it at all that day. Sure enough, this guy was up to something.

Xie Yan neither admitted nor denied it. After Wei Zizhou had finished cursing on the phone, he said, "My sons are all my biological children. There's no way I'm letting you near my wife."

"Hey, explain it to me clearly, hey hey..."
