Wen Qi was disturbed. She made an impatient "tsk" sound and said, "If you have something to say, just say it quickly. I don't have time to entertain you." She had finally got a break and didn't want to be affected by irrelevant people.

Wen Ge took a deep breath. She had never been so angry in her life, but now she was in the Feng family, so she couldn't do anything and could only endure it for the time being.

Wen Ge gritted her teeth, roughly took out a red invitation from her bag and threw it at Wen Qi.

Wen Qi raised his hand to take the invitation, opened it and saw that it was an engagement party.

Wen Ge got even angrier when she didn't hit Wen Qi, and she started to speak in a sarcastic tone, "Take a good look at the groom's name, Xu Kaisheng. Looks familiar, right? I heard that your mother who died a long time ago arranged a marriage for you, but it's a pity that he doesn't seem to like you that much. Instead, he kept pursuing me. I waited until you got married before I agreed to Xu Kaisheng's pursuit."

Wen Qi frowned and tried hard to recall the existence of Xu Kaisheng. It took him a while to dig it out from the corners.

The Xu family's status in Yunhai City is slightly higher than that of the Wen family, but not much higher. The marriage between the two families is considered to be a good match.

The so-called child marriage was a joke between Wen Qi's mother and the mistress of the Xu family when she was still alive.

The parties involved didn't take it seriously, but Wen Ge used it as a weapon to attack Wen Qi, which was really funny.

As far as she could remember, Xu Kaisheng had met Wen Qi several times, and every time he looked affectionate and wanted to save her from danger. The simple Wen Qi was really moved, but before this feeling could bear fruit, she was told that she would marry Feng Ce soon.

It hasn't been long since Xu Kaisheng got engaged to Wen Qi's stepsister. Does that mean their affection is all fake and they can use it whenever they want?

What.

Wen Qi snorted inwardly, threw the invitation on the table, and said, "Got it."

Wen Ge found that she couldn't read Wen Qi's expression. In just a few days, Wen Qi seemed to have become a different person. She asked worriedly, "Will you go to the engagement party?"

Wen Qi smiled, "Of course." Not only would she go, she would also give the two of them a gift that they would never forget.

Wen Ge snorted, turned and left.

Wen Qi stood up and walked to where Wen Ge had just stood, bent down to pick up a hair, and went back to the room with a smile. She was going to prepare a return gift for her dear stepsister.

After Wen Ge left Feng's house, she became angrier and angrier. Just then, some of her friends invited her to a party, so she went. She partied until the early morning, when Xu Kaisheng arrived and took her home.

After Wen Ge became an adult, she lived separately from her parents. Her coming-of-age gift was a large flat in the city center, with a market value of tens of millions.

Xu Kaisheng used Wen Ge's fingerprint to open the door, helped Wen Ge, who was so drunk that she couldn't walk steadily, into the living room, and threw her on the sofa. Then he turned to the kitchen, got a glass of ice water, and quickly and accurately poured it on Wen Ge's face, without wasting a drop.

Wen Ge choked on her saliva, and the cold water sobered her up immediately. She stood up shakily and threw a tantrum at Xu Kaisheng, "How dare you splash me! You want to die!"

Xu Kaisheng grabbed her hand and pressed her hard on the sofa, saying in a sinister tone: "Remember this, we are about to get engaged, and everything you say and do outside must conform to my identity as Xu Kaisheng's fiancée. If I see you hugging and kissing other men again, I will strangle you to death!"

Wen Ge was frightened, her voice trembling a little, "I know."

Xu Kaisheng snorted angrily and let her go.

Wen Ge didn't dare to stay with him, so she stumbled back to the bedroom and only felt relieved after closing the door.

She sat down with her back against the door, her face twisted as she cursed Xu Kaisheng in her heart. It was not until she felt colder and colder that she remembered that her face and clothes were still wet.

Wen Ge got up and went to the bathroom. She had just taken off her wet skirt when her eyes swept across the mirror. She was stunned for a moment, thinking she had seen it wrong, and she turned her head to look again.

The person in the mirror had a thin neck, a big belly, arms that were like skin and bones, gray skin, and a pair of blood-red eyes without whites, staring at her greedily.

Wen Ge's pupils shrank and he knelt on the ground, "Ah——!"

Xu Kaisheng in the living room heard it, stood up irritably, walked angrily to the door of Wen Ge's bedroom, and kicked her.

The fragile door slammed against the wall with a clang. Xu Kaisheng strode in, shouting, "Fuck you, why are you screaming in the middle of the night?"

Wen Ge was startled again and screamed even louder. She was suddenly scolded, but not only was she not angry, she even rolled out of the bathroom and threw herself on Xu Kaisheng and refused to let go, her face pale, "There's a ghost!"

Xu Kaisheng was about to shake the man off, but when he heard the words, he paused. The hair on his body stood up and he looked around in horror. "Stop joking." As he spoke, he clenched the Guanyin around his neck.

Wen Ge pointed to the bathroom fearfully and said, "In the mirror. Let's go. Let's ask a celestial master to come and take a look tomorrow."

Xu Kaisheng hesitated for a moment, then grasped Guanyin tightly as if he were grasping a life-saving straw and nodded.

Wen Ge breathed a sigh of relief and turned to walk towards the door.

The bedroom door closed automatically without any wind and with a clang.

Wen Ge screamed again, shaking and crying.

Xu Kaisheng's face turned pale. Although he had known about the existence of ghosts for a long time, this was his first time to come into contact with one. However, he had never been directly attacked by a ghost, so he was a little more rational than Wen Ge. "Don't you have anything to protect yourself?"

Wen Ge was completely shocked, and it took her a while to realize that her mother had indeed gone to a Taoist temple to buy her a bracelet that had been blessed, but she thought it was ugly and never wore it.

Where did she put the bracelet?

Wen Ge pounced on the bedside table, opened the drawer, and lowered his head so that his face almost touched that of the hungry ghost who was sticking out his tongue.

In an instant, Wen Ge smelled the fishy stench in the hungry ghost's mouth, and even felt his face being licked by the hungry ghost's tongue.

Wen Ge screamed in fear, her body fell backwards, and the back of her head hit the ground, but she didn't care and used her hands and feet to crawl towards Xu Kaisheng, "Save me..."

Just as Xu Kaisheng was about to go over, the hungry ghost in the drawer crawled out first. Xu Kaisheng's legs went weak and he couldn't move anymore.

Wen Ge held his strength and wanted to climb faster.

But she was obviously not as fast as the hungry ghost, and her ankle was grabbed after she moved twice.

Wen Ge froze. The touch on her ankle was cold and sticky, and the chill seemed to penetrate her skin and flesh into her bones in an instant.

The hungry ghost grabbed Wen Ge and dragged him into the drawer little by little.

Wen Ge could no longer scream, her whole body was limp and she couldn't move at all, but her tears were still flowing.

Seeing this, Xu Kaisheng gritted his teeth, shouted, and rushed forward holding the Guanyin.

Fortunately, Guanyin was very powerful. He did not directly touch the hungry ghost. He only grabbed Wen Ge's hand. The hungry ghost on the other side let out a shrill cry as if he was electrocuted.

Xu Kaisheng breathed a sigh of relief and ran out dragging Wen Ge, who was about to faint from fright.

At the other end of the Feng family, Wen Qi, who sensed the change in aura through the talisman, said "tsk" in dissatisfaction and opened the "Secret Book of Metaphysics" again. He was clearly doing it according to the Hungry Ghost Curse, so why was the effect so weak?
