“Of course it’s a man,” Li Muge answered without hesitation.
I returned home.
To dispel Yun Qi's suspicion that she had a lover, Li Muge specially arranged for Shao Junhao to disguise himself as a Taoist priest when he met Yun Qi.
"Ding-dong-"
The doorbell rang.
Li Muge opened the door to her home, and her smile froze instantly.
Shao Junhao was wearing a yellow Taoist robe, holding a copper coin sword in his hand, and had a long white beard stuck to his face.
Damn it, he even wore his hat crookedly.
The guy looked smug.
Li Muge was utterly speechless. Even if this guy wanted to appear more mature, he could at least put on some wrinkles or something.
Now what, Tianshan Child Granny, oh no, Shao Junhao is a man, so he should be called Tianshan Child Elder.
"So, Li Muge, have you been captivated by my charm? Let me tell you, I specially acted like Uncle Ying to meet your request. Now I've got your Chun Chun all wrapped around my little finger."
"Stop pretending! Change your clothes, or you'll definitely give yourself away." As soon as Li Muge finished speaking, Yun Qi got up from the sofa.
Upon seeing Shao Junhao, Yun Qi's lips twitched: "Li Muge, this Taoist priest looks quite professional!"
Yun Qi was quite worried.
Is this person really a Taoist priest?
If it's not a monster, then he should find a highly accomplished master to take a look.
Shao Junhao didn't understand at all that Yun Qi was being polite to him. His eyes lit up with the joy of meeting a kindred spirit: "Mr. Yun, we are truly kindred spirits."
Li Muge: "…………"
Yun Qi smiled and said, "Mr. Shao, right? You have a nice beard. Where did you buy it?"
Shao Junhao blurted out, "Not counting the wigs I bought at the wig shop in the commercial building, they were a great deal."
After he said that, the atmosphere in the living room became awkward.
Shao Junhao opened his mouth as if to say something, but then realized that anything he said or tried to explain would only make things worse.
It's all my fault for having such a big mouth; I can never keep my mouth shut.
Yun Qi was wearing a blue tracksuit, but his noble temperament could not be concealed. His eyes were half-closed, and his scrutinizing gaze alone made Shao Junhao feel guilty and break out in a cold sweat.
I don't know what happened, even though I know that the current Demon Lord is just a mortal.
Why is the air pressure so eerie?
At the crucial moment, Li Muge brought over tea and broke the deadlock.
"Yun Qi, really, why are you speaking so bluntly? Give the Taoist priest some face."
"Besides, if someone doesn't dress up in a more mature way, how can others trust that the Taoist priest is a master with the ability to exorcise ghosts?"
"Our top priority is to find the murderer who killed Sun Sisi back then and break the curse on you."
“Yes, yes, Mr. Yun, you don’t know, it’s tough making a living for us ghost hunters these days. If we dress up more maturely, our clients’ trust in us is off the charts.” Shao Junhao immediately chimed in.
Yun Qi didn't know why, but watching Li Muge and Shao Junhao's tacit cooperation in covering for each other made her feel particularly uneasy.
Seeing that Li Muge was about to serve the tea to Shao Junhao first.
He immediately began coughing violently, attracting Li Muge's attention.
"What's wrong?" Li Muge quickly handed the tea to Yun Qi: "Drink some water, Yun Qi. You should get more rest right now."
"It's nothing," Yun Qi said, deliberately feigning weakness. "It's just that my back still hurts a little."
Li Muge was sitting on the sofa when she heard what Yun Qi said. She immediately became nervous and started to take off Yun Qi's clothes.
Shao Junhao almost choked on his water: "Hey, hey, what are you doing? It's broad daylight, and you're all so impatient. Okay, even if you're impatient, you should at least look at me, a living person!"
The two people on the sofa were stunned.
Li Muge rolled her eyes at Shao Junhao, first using her spiritual power to examine Yun Qi's back, and only after confirming that he was not seriously injured did she feel relieved.
Yun Qi was very satisfied; good thing his wife's attention had returned to him.
But his smile immediately vanished.
Li Muge actually told him to stay home and rest, and then she went out with that Taoist priest named Shao, Yun Qi, to investigate Sun Sisi's case.
Would he agree to that?
I definitely can't agree to that!
"Mu Ge, I feel much better now, I feel really great. I'll go with you. Master Shao can try to find out the case files from back then at the police station."
"Why should I?" Shao Junhao was unwilling, but when he looked up and met Yun Qi's cold gaze, he instantly backed down.
"Okay, okay, that's settled then."
After saying that, Shao Junhao ran off in a flash.
The door opened and closed in one smooth motion.
"Strange, why is Shao Junhao running so fast?" As soon as Li Muge turned around, Yun Qi's innocent look returned.
"I don't know, maybe something's wrong. Not all cultivators are so unpredictable and hard to fathom. Alright, let's go investigate the case, let's hurry!"
Yun Qi's lips slowly curved upwards, forming a beautiful arc.
---
Sun Sisi's parents live in an old-style neighborhood.
Because they were a family who had lost their only child, the two elderly people lived a hard life, but fortunately, they had the help of Sun Sisi's boyfriend.
"Mom and Dad, it's just a few bags of rice, I can manage by myself."
Gao Changdong was wearing a black shirt and had a very honest-looking face.
Moreover, seeing how satisfied Sun Sisi's parents were with Gao Changdong, as if he were a perfect man, was quite remarkable.
Yun Qi stood beside Li Muge, looking at the harmonious family: "Should we go find Gao Changdong to find out the specifics of the brawl?"
"No."
Li Muge shook her head.
"What can we possibly get out of Gao Changdong by simply asking him like this? Even if you want to ask, you can choose not to let us ask."
Li Muge finished speaking.
The two of them went to find Xia Wei.
At that time, Xia Wei opened a clothing store and was doing quite well.
Upon learning the purpose of Li Muge and Yun Qi's visit.
A hint of sadness flickered in Xia Wei's eyes; her attire revealed her to be an extremely refined woman.
"Sun Sisi was a very good person. She was lively and outgoing, like a little sun."
"It's a pity she has bad taste in men."
"What, Miss Xia means?" Li Muge and Yun Qi were sitting opposite Xia Wei?
Xia Wei sneered: "Sisi was good in every way, but when it came to men, she was a complete love-struck fool. No matter how I tried to stop her, she insisted on jumping into Gao Changdong's fire pit, and now look what happened, she's lost her life."
Perhaps thinking of what happened to Sun Sisi before her death, Xia Wei took out a cigarette case.
"Gentlemen, would you mind if I had a cigarette?"
Li Muge and Yun Qi both subconsciously shook their heads.
The clothing store was exquisitely decorated, and Li Muge's gaze was fixed on the cashier counter.
A photo of Sun Sisi and Xia Wei from their student days is displayed on top.
Sun Sisi's face was round and chubby, making her look very cute, not at all as frightening as she appeared in the hospital.
Li Muge felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on her heart, making it hard to breathe.
