Zhou Li strode over and angrily asked, "Nie Weixing, if you don't want to sleep with me, just say so. Do you have another woman on the side?"
"First you turned off our water, then you cut off our electricity, and now you're pretending there's a ghost in the house and hiding behind the sofa. You're disgusting!"
Nie Weixing didn't answer Zhou Li's question. His face was deathly pale, and he muttered, "Ghost! There's a ghost! There's a ghost!"
Zhou Li angrily ripped off her face mask and threw it at Nie Weixing's face.
She angrily returned to her bedroom and slammed the door shut.
"Pah! You call me a monster just because I put on a face mask? I think you'd prefer those vixens outside."
"Wife, don't go! There's a ghost!"
Seeing Zhou Li return to the bedroom and close the door, Nie Weixing hid behind the sofa with his arms crossed, even more frightened.
He felt unsafe inside and wanted to rush outside, but he was also afraid of the dark.
Tang Xiaopiao and Zhong Chuhong stood discreetly at the bathroom door, watching Nie Weixing hiding behind the sofa like he was a dead dog.
Chung Chu-hung thought coldly to herself, "Ha! Now you're scared? Back then, you helped Zhou Meihua take my life, and after I died, you helped Zhou Meihua give false testimony and ordered someone to break my mother's right leg. Why weren't you scared then? Why were you so arrogant back then?"
Seeing Nie Weixing like this, Cherie Chung felt incredibly excited.
This kind of bad guy should be scared more, scared to the point of incontinence, made to live in constant fear, and finally killed.
"Nie—Wei—Xing—"
Chung Chor-hung appeared and walked step by step toward Nie Weixing, making terrifying sounds and calling out to Nie Weixing in a mournful voice.
"Nie—"
"guard--"
"star--"
Like calling back someone's soul, the voice is roundabout and eerie, making one's hair stand on end.
Fearing that Nie Weixing might not be able to see Chung Chuh-hung's performance clearly in the dark, Tang Xiaopiao picked up Nie Weixing's phone, which he had dropped on the ground while running too fast, and turned on the flashlight.
The phone's light was shone entirely on Cherie Chung's face, which lacked facial features.
"Ah..." Nie Weixing stared wide-eyed, his mouth agape, like a cat trembling all over, watching fearfully as Cherie Chung approached step by step.
Chung Chor-hung was dressed in red, her hair was disheveled, and her face, devoid of features, was stained with blood, with an eyeball occasionally popping out and moving.
As they walked, Cherie Chung suddenly turned her neck, raised her hands, twisted her neck off, and threw it at Nie Weixing's feet.
"ah!!!"
Nie Weixing let out a scream, rushed to the door, frantically unlocked it, and ran out.
I ran to the door to take the elevator, only to find that it wasn't on my floor. After hurriedly pressing a few buttons, I was so scared that I tumbled and crawled down the stairs.
Nie Weixing's home is on the 12th floor. When he ran down to the 1st floor, he was covered in bruises and had a wound on his forehead that was bleeding.
It was only 10:30 p.m., and the streets were bustling with people.
Nie Weixing, with shampoo foam on his head, barefoot and naked, rushed all the way to the bottom of the apartment building.
Chung Chor-hung and Tang Xiaopiao were chasing after him. Chung Chor-hung kept shouting, "Nie Weixing, give me your life!" Nie Weixing tumbled and crawled all the way to the street.
He rushed into the street, running until he was out of breath, before stopping to catch his breath.
At this point, Cherie Chung and Tang Xiaopiao stopped chasing and hid under the shade of trees on the street to watch Nie Weixing make a fool of himself.
Sure enough, Nie Weixing gasped for breath before realizing he was standing on the street. At that moment, he was surrounded by a crowd of people. They looked at his disheveled hair, covered in foam, and naked body, and started talking amongst themselves.
"Is this guy crazy? Why did he come out like this? Oh my, that clump of grass down there is quite lush."
"I don't know. Judging from his appearance, he probably ran out while taking a shower. Oh, could it be that someone's lover was taking a shower at their lover's house and her husband suddenly came back?"
"What you said makes sense to me. My God, people's values are so warped these days. These kinds of people are really parasites on society."
"Hey, isn't this lawyer Nie Weixing from the law firm? What happened to him?"
"Ah, it really is Attorney Nie Weixing... Attorney Nie, what's wrong?"
...
When Nie Weixing saw that everyone around him was looking at him and heard their discussions, he felt ashamed and ran away, covering his private parts.
Someone in the crowd had already called the police, saying that officers should come quickly because a mentally ill person had appeared on Yangliu Street.
Soon, police cars arrived with sirens blaring and arrested Nie Weixing, who had already run to another street, and took him to the police station.
At the police station, Nie Weixing cried loudly, recounting what had happened to him that night, saying that his house was haunted by the red-clothed female ghost who had spoken to him in the elevator.
"Officers, that female ghost has possessed me! Please, please save me!"
"Help me, I'm too scared to go home!"
The police had no choice but to find him a piece of clothing and a pair of pants and let him sleep in the lobby of the police station for the night.
The next morning, Nie Weixing, sporting huge panda eyes, rushed out of the police station and went to find the master who had given him the talisman.
...
Lu Chi went to school for two classes in the morning and returned to the [Haha You] company cafeteria for lunch.
I received a call from Li Ren'an, the captain of the criminal investigation team, while I was having dinner.
“Lu Chi, do you remember Nie Weixing, the guy I told you about before? The one who encountered a female ghost in red in the elevator after working late one day. Last night, he was so scared by the female ghost in red that he didn’t dare to go home and slept on the bench in our police station lobby all night.”
“Officer Li,” Lu Chi said somewhat displeased, “handling cases is your job as police officers, not my responsibility. Don’t assume that just because someone reports a crime, they’re a good person. The woman in red didn’t bother anyone else but him; maybe he owes her some kind of debt. Please investigate thoroughly before you speak!”
After hanging up the phone, Lu Chi continued eating.
I drank a glass of iced cola.
I woke up from my afternoon nap and saw that it was 2:30. Zhou Fu, the housekeeper from the old house, called.
"Young Master, I've found the villa you asked me to look at before. If you have time this afternoon, I'll take you there to see it. If you're satisfied, we can sign the contract."
"Ah...oh, okay, where is it? I'll come right away."
"In the Banshan Yunnuan Villa District."
Lu Chi then remembered that he had told Zhou Fu last week that he wanted to buy a detached villa so that he could set up a recording studio there to record songs.
Lu Chi specifically asked Zhou Fu to keep an eye out for houses in the same neighborhood as his good brother Zhang Hu.
It has to be said that Zhou Fu is really efficient; he managed to find such a house for him.
