After a while.
Zuo Chen did not deny it: "Yes, but they all failed."
Qu Jian'er frowned. She didn't know if what he said was true or false, or if Zuo Chen was lying to her.
She pulled out her outdated mobile phone.
Qu Jian'er's QR code hovered between the two of them: "I understand, scan the code. I'll add you as a friend, and I'll let you know as soon as I have any definite news."
While waiting, she always felt like a concubine waiting to be favored by the king.
She jolted awake, quickly banishing the terrible thought, unaware of Zuo Chen's barely suppressed laughter.
Zuo Chen, unusually, did not refuse a friend request from an outsider: "What are Master Qu's conditions?"
Qu Jian'er waved her hand: "After I help you through this difficult time and you see my sincerity and ability, we can discuss the terms."
Zuo Chen paused, his eyes darkening. Though his words carried a hint of doubt, his tone was certain: "Oh, what difficulties could I possibly face?"
Qu Jian'er ruthlessly exposed: "I understand. You don't want outsiders to know about your spiritual power, but it's actually a riot."
Zuo Chen's smile gradually froze.
He never imagined that Qu Jian'er could see through the secret he had kept hidden for 29 years.
If he only sees evil spirits and suffers everywhere, he can still endure it.
However, his unstable mental state meant that he had to use sedatives even for normal business negotiations.
This is because his mental energy has been turbulent since childhood, rather than the chaos of an ordinary person.
But now.
Qu Jian'er pointed out this secret that outsiders didn't know!
A murderous intent surged into his heart.
The thought of eliminating any future trouble fueled the flames, burning them inch by inch, almost extinguishing his reason.
Fortunately, he held back.
Zuo Chen narrowed his eyes, abandoning any respectful address: "Please keep this a secret."
Qu Jian'er sensed danger and looked at Zuo Chen, who was trying his best to hide his ruthless nature: "Protecting the privacy of our guests is the duty of a good person like me. The magnetic field strength of the world is often very high during the 15th of each month. A person's spiritual power, which can also be called the sea of consciousness, will be affected by the magnetic field fluctuations."
Zuo Chen felt uneasy as soon as he heard the word "good person," but he still listened patiently to the end.
Qu Jian'er overlooked Zuo Chen's murderous intent. The reason she deliberately provoked Zuo Chen's alarm was because she wanted to test the bottom line of his morality and rationality.
In this way, she could run rampant under the protection of the other party's shadow.
Qu Jian'er thought to herself: With Zuo Chen's money-making ability, giving him a reward is a piece of cake, isn't it? From poverty to wealth, all I need to do is cure his mental turmoil!
She took out four red talisman papers that she had drawn earlier and quickly folded each one into a triangle.
Qu Jian'er blinked: "I won't go into details. Here, put them in the four corners of the bedroom."
Zuo Chen stared intently: "Is this all?"
Qu Jian'er just smiled and remained silent.
He simply indicated to Zuo Chen that he could go get a good night's sleep.
Everything will be a little better after you wake up.
Under Qu Jian'er's resolute assurance, Zuo Chen stood up and went upstairs with a mixture of belief and doubt.
When Uncle Fu asked whether they should activate the backup plan, Zuo Chen shook his head. He knew that using the old methods to avoid riots would mean he didn't trust Qu Jian'er.
After receiving Zuo Chen's denial.
Uncle Fu was still worried and reminded him, "Young Master's mental strength is not like his usual strange constitution. Isn't it too much of a gamble to rely on just a few pieces of paper?"
Zuo Chen took off his glasses: "I've survived until now by gambling with death, haven't I? Go and entertain the guests; we can't let people think the Zuo family is being disrespectful."
Uncle Fu left with a worried expression.
Zuo Chen, on the other hand, wanted to work while sitting on the sofa.
He didn't really believe in Qu Jian'er's abilities, but reality left him no choice but to believe.
Zuo Chen leaned back against the chair, looking like a solemn god draped in an immaculate white robe.
After taking off my glasses.
No matter how relaxed his expression was, his gaze was as sharp as an awl when he was thinking.
It exudes a barely concealed aggressiveness.
Every month, he suffers from excruciating pain that keeps him from having a good dream.
Suddenly, a soft meow interrupted Zuo Chen's myriad thoughts.
A snow-white, long-tailed cat jumped onto the table; it had two vertical, azure eyes as blue as the sea.
Zuo Chen's expression softened instantly, revealing a smile that was enough to amaze everyone.
When he reached out to touch the white cat, it let out a sharp cry and instinctively avoided his touch.
As always, Zuo Chen is not liked by animals.
He felt a pang of regret, as dejected as a phoenix untouched by the world. Sadly, this rarely known tenderness of his was known only to him and the white cat.
Is the powerful and decisive Master Zuo a cat lover?
Such an extreme contrast is unbelievable.
To prevent the cat from getting out of control and hurting itself, Zuo Chen chased it to the side room next door.
When the antique clock strikes 12 o'clock.
Zuo Chen, who was working, fell asleep without realizing it. The mental pain he usually experienced did not overwhelm him, nor did it drive him to the point of wanting to destroy everything around him.
I slept well all night.
Before Zuo Chen woke up.
Qu Jian'er asked Uncle Fu to bring over the four talismans, and happily stuffed them into her pocket.
She left behind a dozen or so new talismans.
Qu Jian'er said, "Please tell your eldest young master that the condition is that I become a guest of honor of the Zuo family. Also, I will come here once a month from now on. And every month, it must be like today, until I say stop."
Zuo Chen was unharmed overnight, and Uncle Fu had long since secretly admired Qu Jian'er.
Upon hearing this, Uncle Fu nodded repeatedly.
I watched Qu Jian'er ride away on her bicycle.
As dawn broke, when Zuo Chen came downstairs in surprise, Qu Jian'er had already disappeared.
