Are you worried about Lan Qi?
You looked up at me and said, "Yes, I'm afraid that even if he has these, he'll want more."
I blinked. I didn't understand what You was saying, but I thought Lan Qi shouldn't be that kind of person.
However, I dare not say this to You, because You would definitely not be happy to hear it.
"What are you thinking about?" I looked up and saw a face so close to mine, its chilling breath almost touching my face.
You lifted my chin, her dark eyes scrutinizing me. "Still thinking about other men while I'm here?"
"I didn't." I looked back at You, staring intently into her eyes.
"No?" You asked in a light, cheerful tone.
"Mmm." I nodded emphatically, determined not to admit that I had just been thinking about Lan Qi.
You looked at me suspiciously, and I almost lost my composure because of her gaze.
You gently lifted my chin, preparing to kiss my lips.
"Ring ring ring".
The ringing of the phone interrupted You's actions, and You frowned as she searched for the source of the sound.
When my phone rings, I'm stunned for a long time, wondering who could be calling me.
I picked up my phone and saw an unfamiliar number on the screen. Who could it be?
"Hello?"
"Are you Miss Xin?"
I was taken aback when I heard the name, but then I remembered that the name on my ID card in the human world was also Nv Xin.
"What is wrong with me?"
The voice on the other end of the phone was that of a young man; it sounded somewhat familiar.
"Hello, I'm Zhang from Meile Appliances."
"Meile Appliances, Xiao Zhang?" Before my brain could process what was happening, I heard the voice on the other end of the phone say again.
"I came to your house before to install appliances for you."
Now that you mention it, I immediately remembered that guy on the second floor who seemed a bit odd.
"What do you need me for?"
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment, then spoke as if making a very difficult decision, "You're right, I really am in trouble."
"Hmm?" Could it be that the evil spirit on him hasn't left yet?
"I wonder if it would be convenient for us to meet in person?" I could hear the weariness in Xiao Zhang's voice.
"Okay." I nodded, thinking it was a good deed after all. "Come to my house."
"Okay," Xiao Zhang said and then hung up the phone.
"You, do you still remember the guy who came to install our appliances that day?"
"The person on the second floor has a lot of yin energy?" You asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Yes, that's right." I nodded. "I asked him a question at the time, but he didn't believe me."
"What does it matter?" You said in a nonchalant tone.
"It's nothing to do anyway, so let's help if we can." I sat in front of You, propping my chin up and looking at the person opposite me. "We don't have anything else to do right now, do we?"
"Don't get hurt."
"How could that be? Can't I even handle a mere ghost?" I opened my eyes wide and took You's hand again. "Besides, I still have you."
As I was chatting with You, we heard the sound of a car outside, followed by the doorbell ringing.
So fast?
I got up to open the door for Xiao Zhang, and You, worried about me, followed me.
As soon as I opened the door, I saw Xiao Zhang's red sports car, which was extremely ostentatious.
I was slightly taken aback. I didn't expect Xiao Zhang to be so rich.
"You should park your car in the garage first," I said, pointing towards the garage.
"Okay." Xiao Zhang nodded and went to park the car.
Xiao Zhang's complexion was completely different from when I first met him.
With bluish eye sockets and a yellowish complexion, Xiao Zhang was indeed wearing a cotton-padded coat, even though the weather wasn't cold.
After Xiao Zhang parked his car, I led him into the living room.
When Xiao Zhang entered, he tugged at his clothes and looked around uneasily before saying, "To be honest, I haven't been acting right lately."
"Yes, you're being haunted by a spirit." I didn't waste any words with Xiao Zhang and told him directly.
Xiao Zhang wasn't surprised when he heard me say that. He said, "To be honest, before you, I also went to see several masters, monks and Taoists. They all said the same thing and prepared a lot of things for me. I spent a lot of money, but it didn't work at all."
After Xiao Zhang finished speaking, he looked at me uneasily and then at You beside me. "If you can cure me, I guarantee you'll be well paid."
Xiao Zhang's problem isn't serious; after all, it's just a mere ghost, and I don't even need to deal with it directly.
I grabbed a piece of paper, scribbled a few lines on it, folded it, and handed it to Xiao Zhang, saying, "Take this, and I guarantee nothing else will happen."
Xiao Zhang took what I had written, looked at it in disbelief, and asked, "Are you sure? This is it?"
"Okay." I nodded. "I guarantee there won't be any problems if you keep it with you."
Seeing my confident expression and the powerful aura of You beside me, Xiao Zhang had no choice but to believe me. "Then I'll go back and try it first, and I'll come back to you if there are no problems."
"Okay." I nodded.
Xiao Zhang carefully stuffed his things into his pocket and hurriedly left.
Actually, what I write is not important. The paper and the ink are not important. What is important is the magic I have cast on that paper.
"You, how much money do you think Xiao Zhang will give us?" I asked after Xiao Zhang left.
"Money? We're out of money? I still have some things with me."
"Hey, what's the point of just selling things all the time?"
"Um?"
I've discovered an easy and fun way to make money.
"I want to open a psychic shop," I said with a smile that curved my eyes.
"A psychic shop?"
“That’s right. You see, there must be a lot of people like Xiao Zhang in the mortal world. We can help them solve their problems and collect payment. It’s easy, simple, and profitable.” I couldn’t help but get excited. This idea had stirred up my childhood dream. I remember how much I envied those kinds of people when I read tomb raiding novels. Back then, I was so immature that I even considered becoming a monk.
"If you want, I have no objection," You replied, rubbing my head, though he didn't understand what I was so excited about.
"Okay." I hugged You and spun her around. "Then you have to protect me."
"Okay." You smiled, raising the corners of her mouth.
I reckon Xiao Zhang will call me tomorrow.
The next day, Xiao Zhang called early in the morning.
"You're amazing! You're truly incredible!" Xiao Zhang's voice was full of energy.
"Does it work?" I lay lazily on the bed.
"Mmm." I could almost picture Zhang's happy smile on the other end of the phone from his tone. "You're a lucky charm, are you free now?"
"Could you come later, around midnight?"
Actually, I'm fine, I just don't want to get out of bed.
"Okay." Xiao Zhang thanked me repeatedly before hanging up the phone.
"Breakfast is ready," You's voice came from downstairs.
"Coming." I got out of bed, slipped on a pair of slippers, and went downstairs.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw white porridge and side dishes on the dining table, as well as scallion pancakes that I had made myself.
I first went up and hugged You, then stood on tiptoe and kissed her, saying, "Thank you."
"Eat up." You's mood visibly improved after receiving my hug and kiss.
