Wen Xi stared at him, making Wen Chenxi feel uneasy. He then reluctantly replied, "Okay."
Wen Chenxi breathed a sigh of relief and continued to drive Wen Xi back to the Wen family villa.
"Little sister, we're home now. Go back and have a good sleep."
Seeing him motionless, Wen Xi felt relieved and sighed softly, "You're not going home again! It's rare for you to come back, so it's okay to stay overnight. I'm at home, so even if a ghost comes, it won't be able to stop me."
Wen Chenxi shook his head seriously, "Little sister, you haven't seen the power of that evil spirit. He has possessed many people in succession, causing dozens of deaths. We haven't arrested him yet. Now we have classified him as an SSS+ evil spirit, and he has made the headlines of the wanted list. I can't let myself down and bring danger back home."
Seeing that he was so obsessed, Wen Xi stopped trying to persuade him. After getting off the car, he looked back and said, "Second brother, don't take all the responsibility on yourself. Once your spirit is crushed, they are very likely to possess you!
If you need help, I can help you. Of course, we are brothers and we have to settle accounts clearly. You need to pay me a fee."
Seeing his lovely sister talking to him jokingly on purpose, a warmth appeared in Wen Chenxi's eyes as deep as the sea.
"I know that the person who Ling Feng is so eager to recruit into the Special Management Bureau must be extremely capable, but I can't bear to let my sister be involved in danger!"
Wen Chenxi closed his eyes, his sorrow evident in his expression. "Did you know that there used to be ten Special Management Bureaus?"
Wen Xi blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "So far, I have only met members of the First and Fifth Divisions."
"Well, after the Fifth Division, there are still a few more, but between them... the Second, Third, Fourth Divisions, these team members... my colleagues... they're all dead or missing. Now the Special Management Bureau is like a pile of loose sand, and its strength has greatly decreased."
Wen Chenxi opened his eyes, his eyes filled with deep gloom and sadness. "Fortunately, you rejected Ling Feng. Otherwise, I wouldn't have allowed you to join the Special Management Bureau. Nowadays, evil spirits are getting more and more powerful, and even the ghost domains are appearing more and more frequently. It seems that there are even more powerful guys behind them controlling them. Xiaoxi, promise your brother not to get involved, okay?"
Wen Xi looked at him with clear eyes and said slowly, "I can only promise you that I won't join the Special Management Bureau. As for the rest... Second brother, you can't stop me. Just like darkness, even though it fears light, it will inevitably follow the footsteps of light. Even if I do nothing, some things will automatically come to me."
Wen Chenxi stretched out his finger and flicked her forehead. "You are still young, why do you speak so arrogantly? Forget it, forget it. You should go home quickly. Remember, don't tell Dad that I am back for the time being, understand?"
"I know!"
Wen Xi rubbed his forehead, which didn't hurt at all, waved at him, turned around and went home.
Wen Chenxi was left staring at the direction she left, unable to come back to his senses for a long time.
When I got home, the living room light was still on.
Wen Qinglian was sitting on the sofa in her nightgown. When she saw her come back, her eyes lit up and she quickly stood up and walked over. "Little sister, you're back? It's all my fault. I was busy with the hotel's affairs and didn't send you back in person."
"It's okay, I'm not a child anymore."
"You went out today... to deal with those ghosts?"
Wen Qinglian hesitated for a while, but still asked.
"Well, it's all resolved. There are no ghosts in the hotel anymore. From my live broadcast that day, the spell should have been broken, right?"
Wen Qinglian nodded and said, "Yes, the hotel's business has returned to normal. We even have more guests booking rooms than before. Many of them come for the supernatural. It's really strange. Aren't young people these days afraid of ghosts?"
Wen Xi smiled and said, "Young people like to seek excitement, as long as there is no danger of falling stars."
Wen Qinglian looked at her, her expression softening. "Well, the falling star is definitely not going to happen. It's just that the person who planned it is so abominable. When Dad was at the board meeting this morning, someone even brought it up. Look, he's been so busy that he hasn't come back yet. I'm afraid he'll have to stay at the company tonight. I've been busy too late."
"To protect against risks?"
Wen Xi sat on the sofa, eating the fruit on the table, and said calmly, "Is it because of the resort hotel that the Gu family built in the western suburbs?"
Wen Qinglian sighed, "Yes, in the short term, our hotel's turnover has indeed increased, but the popularity brought by the supernatural events is short-lived. The resort hotels in the suburbs are clearly targeting us!
Back when that piece of land in the suburbs was looked down upon by everyone, they came to us and promised that if we took it and built a hotel, there would never be another hotel of the same size there. Now, they have reneged on their promise.”
Wen Qinglian's eyes became increasingly cold. The Gu family's small moves had been endless in recent years, and this was just their first step!
When a piece of watermelon was brought to her mouth, Wen Qinglian was stunned. Looking at Wen Xi's smiling face, she changed her usual strong woman appearance and obediently ate the watermelon fed to her by her sweet, soft and lovely sister.
"Don't worry, sister. They won't be able to make any waves."
Wen Xi smiled mysteriously, "I've already calculated that even if they buy that piece of land, all construction work will have to be suspended, and... it will be suspended indefinitely."
Wen Qinglian swallowed the watermelon in her mouth and asked in surprise, "How could that be? They were in such a hurry to finish the work that they had no time to spare. I just asked someone to find out the news today."
Wen Xi said casually, "That's not real-time news. In fact, they should have discovered it a few hours ago!
While digging, they discovered a collapsed area and a strange entrance. After the workers went down to investigate, they discovered… a rather large burial complex beneath the ground. One worker couldn't resist and sent it to the media. They should be reporting on it live right now. You can watch TV, sister."
Wen Xi's words were calm and composed, but in Wen Qinglian's heart, there were huge waves.
She had seen Wen Xi exorcise ghosts and trusted her sister unconditionally.
Without saying much, she picked up the remote control and turned on the TV in the living room.
The news channel was broadcasting live, and the reporter rushed to the front line. Under the dim light, he could see a group of workers chattering into the camera on a piece of land in the western suburbs.
The reporter summarized, "Today, in the western suburbs of Changjing City, a resort hotel was under construction when the ground suddenly collapsed. Fortunately, no one was injured!
Driven by curiosity, the workers took the lead in exploring and unexpectedly discovered an ancient tomb complex. Archaeologists arrived overnight and preliminary research shows that the underground tombs are the tombs of ancient princes. The scale is very large. Only time will tell us when and who the tombs were.
