Chapter 31 Of course I chose to forgive her [New book, please collect it! ]
"Do you think I'm unlucky this year? Every time I go out I run into ghosts, and each ghost is different. Now, I stay at home and don't go out, but I still run into something like this."
Wang Longqi looked at Li Chu and Li Xinyi with a bitter face, and said angrily.
Li Chu thought about it and felt that if a vengeful spirit came to his home... it would be quite good.
It is very convenient to kill monsters and level up.
But on second thought, I have to find a way out before I get involved with this evil spirit, so I decided to give up.
This is too troublesome.
But you’re also right, there is no such thing as something good that comes without hard work.
If Wang Longqi could see what he was thinking, he would definitely be impressed by his divine cause and effect logic.
Li Chu was lost in thought, while Li Xinyi curled her lips at Wang Longqi: "Humph, if you weren't so heartless and disloyal, how could you have ended up like this?"
From Chaotianque's perspective, she must of course protect Wang Longqi's life and prevent the people from being harmed by resentful spirits.
But from a woman's perspective, she extremely despised Wang Longqi's shameless behavior.
"I swear to God, I don't know why Meixiang is resentful of me. I wasn't the one who abandoned her after having sex with her." Wang Long swore with his seven halberd fingers, "Li Chu, remember what I told you two days ago, there were prostitutes and madams in Chun Man Lou who were saying bad things about me behind my back. That person was Meixiang!"
Li Chu nodded.
"Alas..." Wang Longqi sighed again, "Back then, she and I were in love under the moonlight, and we fell in love with each other and promised to spend our lives together. But who would have thought that after I was bewitched by the female ghost, she not only didn't care about me, but also deliberately avoided me and ridiculed me behind my back! It was from then on that I saw her true colors and completely distanced myself from her."
"She is the kind of person who will use you when she needs you and ignore you when she doesn't. Yesterday morning, she suddenly asked the maid to ask me to go to Chun Man Lou for a chat. Maybe she was short of money again. After all, we were..."
Having said this, he suddenly glanced at Li Xinyi. A cultivator from Chaotianque still had dignity, so he retracted some of his vulgar words and thought for a while.
"After all, we have been friends for many years. She is ruthless, but I am loyal. But just as I was about to accept it, I suddenly remembered Zhao Liangcai. Once he knew that I had been to Chun Man Lou during this period, he would definitely go to Miss Gongsun to make up a story about me. So I said I would make an appointment another day and only asked the little maid to take back a hundred taels of silver to her."
"You said that I did my best for her. But she actually complained about me before she died, and even turned into a ghost to seek revenge on me. It's really hard to understand."
After listening to his words, Li Chu thought for a moment and said, "If she comes to see you at night, you can try to explain to her. Maybe you can purify her resentment."
In his opinion, since the lady was able to dispel her resentment because of a stranger face, then purifying resentment might not be that difficult...
"Forget it." Wang Longqi shrank his neck and said, "You should just give her a quick death. I will go to her grave and explain it to her slowly someday."
"We can't relax at Chun Man Lou either." Li Xinyi said, "From what you said, it seems that Miss Mei Xiang's resentment towards you is not that strong... Then maybe her resentful spirit will still appear in Chun Man Lou."
"Yeah." Li Chu agreed with her.
Li Xinyi said, "How about we split up into two groups, one person stays here to protect him, and the other stays in Chun Man Tower?"
Li Chu pondered for a moment and felt something was a little wrong.
The last time Li Xinyi dealt with the vengeful spirit, something unexpected happened...
Before he could decide whether to object, Wang Longqi shouted, "Okay, then let Li Chu stay with me!"
The tone highlights urgency.
Li Xinyi raised her eyebrows: "What do you mean?"
Wang Longqi blinked and said weakly, "What do you mean?"
"You are so anxious to have Taoist Master Li stay here, because you think he is better than me?" Li Xinyi asked.
Of course!
That’s what I think!
Wang Longqi said with confidence in his heart.
Loud thief.
However, he should just think about such dangerous remarks in his mind, and he certainly wouldn't be so foolish as to say them out loud.
He smiled tactfully and said, "No, to protect me, we have to stay in the same room late at night. We are a man and a woman, and it will definitely have a bad influence. My father taught me since I was a child that reputation is more important than Mount Tai!"
Li Xinyi nodded with satisfaction.
Of course she knew it very well in her heart.
Li Chu is indeed stronger than himself.
but.
How can this be known to outsiders?
If word gets out that I, the dignified Chaotianque Purple Guard, rely on outsiders to solve cases, how can I become famous?
She glanced at Li Chu, who was still thinking about something and looked unconcerned.
Li Xinyi smiled slightly. The little Taoist priest's character of not caring about false reputation was really great.
Love it.
At this time, Li Chu raised his eyes and said to Wang Longqi: "Why don't we go to Chunmanlou together."
"Ah?" Wang Longqi was startled, then a strange smile appeared on his face: "We should do it together... It's not good, Miss Li is still here... Or are you guys not shy about this anymore?"
Li Xinyi scolded: "What are you thinking about!"
She immediately understood what Li Chu meant.
Chun Man Lou is dead, Wang Long Qi is alive.
Bring him back to Chunmanlou. No matter who the evil spirit is resentful of, he can only come here.
Once the vengeful spirit appears, things will be simple.
…
When Wang Longqi went to Chunmanlou, it was just like going home. He walked through the main door and walked to Meixiang's room with ease. He leaned back on the bamboo chair out of habit and said leisurely, "Hongzhi, serve the tea."
Hongzhi is the name of the little maid.
After calling out and getting no response, he realized that this place was different from his previous experiences here.
"Alas." He sighed again, and said with deep emotion: "Why is Meixiang doing this?"
Li Xinyi said quietly, "She hanged herself by standing on this chair."
"Eh——" Wang Longqi quickly stood up and moved to another place to sit.
After a while, Chun Sanniang came again with her maid Hongzhi.
When Chun Sanniang saw Wang Longqi, she rolled her eyes at him. Meixiang was the girl she had raised since she was a child, so she definitely had feelings for her. Seeing Wang Longqi at this moment, she couldn't help but feel angry.
Wang Longqi begged for mercy: "Sanniang, please don't be so cold to me. I am already sad enough about Meixiang's death."
"Oh, Master Wang Qi, you still have a heart? Why didn't you pay attention to that person when he was alive? Now that he's been forced to death, you come here to pretend."
Chun Sanniang hugged her arms, and her slight anger and resentment were also full of charm.
Wang Longqi spread his hands and called the little maid, "Come, Hongzhi, tell Sanniang carefully, did I give you a hundred taels of silver yesterday and ask you to take it to the girl? I didn't say anything harsh, I just said that we'll see each other another day, there's no need to rush...right?"
After saying that, he confessed that Meixiang had said bad things about him behind his back, explained why he distanced himself from her, and how magnanimous he was.
Wronged.
After hearing this, Chun Sanniang's face changed. "Which madam is plotting against her? I will teach her a lesson when I get back. But Master Wang Qi, you made her pregnant and just wanted to get rid of her with a hundred taels of silver. Isn't that too disrespectful? If you don't know about this, you will say you are kind and righteous. If you know about this, you will just think you are humiliating our girl."
"Ah?" Wang Longqi's face changed suddenly after hearing this: "Meixiang is pregnant?"
Li Xinyi said, "The government office conducted an autopsy and found that Miss Meixiang was indeed two months pregnant."
"Two months?" Wang Longqi was shocked again.
"I just found out about this this morning. The girls in our building have always had their own ways to ensure safety when they go out and come in. They will never easily get pregnant." Chun Sanniang said, "I think Meixiang also wants to redeem herself, so she would find a way to get close to you and borrow your seed to marry into a wealthy family. She didn't dare to let me know about this. If I knew, I would definitely stop her. This silly girl, how can a man have a conscience."
Li Chu looked at her silently.
She quickly added, "Master Xiao Li is so handsome, so of course he's counted separately."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Wang Longqi shook his head repeatedly.
Chun Sanniang said, "She has always been in love with you, how could she be someone else's?"
"I haven't... met her since half a year ago, let alone taking advantage of the opportunity. This is absolutely impossible!" Wang Longqi denied it flatly.
Chun Sanniang frowned, then suddenly looked at the little maid Hongzhi.
The little maid was trembling all over.
"Is Meixiang having an affair with someone else?" Chun Sanniang asked.
The management of prostitutes in Chunmanlou is quite strict. An ordinary good girl can certainly welcome guests with a smile, but if a prostitute does so, it is tantamount to lowering her own status.
Therefore, Chun Sanniang made a rule that after a prostitute was recruited, there could only be one man in the room for a period of time. If she wanted to change to the next man, she had to end things with the previous man.
Any violation will result in severe penalties.
It is precisely because of these rules that the prostitutes in Chunmanlou are admired by everyone.
Because the literati and scholars knew that as long as they could win over the girl, they would be her only ones, even if it was only temporarily.
This mentality is completely different.
The little maid stammered, "Actually...actually the young lady has always been in love with more than just Young Master Wang...and the child...is definitely not Young Master Wang's."
Chun Sanniang asked: "Who is the other person?"
"Yes..." the little maid said, "That person is... Young Master Zhao Liangcai from the Zhao family."
"It's him." Wang Longqi was suddenly struck by lightning and collapsed in his chair.
This feeling is similar to that of a wife cheating on you, and the person she cheated on you is your lifelong enemy.
No wonder Meixiang dared to ignore me, it turned out that she had already climbed up to another higher branch.
Li Chu cast a look at him.
Be strong.
Chun Sanniang looked at Wang Longqi with a complicated expression: "Master Wang, I was wrong about you just now. I apologize to you. Also, I didn't know about Meixiang's matter. Now..."
"Now that everyone is dead, why should I care about these things?" Wang Longqi smiled bitterly.
"Of course I choose to forgive her."
