Chapter 150: Thicker Skin Than City Wall
"The Infant Bone Gathering Evil is made from the bones of babies under one year old. It carries a lot of resentment. The longer you hold this thing, the more likely it is to be haunted by evil spirits."
"If you wear this hairpin every day, you will die suddenly in one or two months at the least, or half a year at the most."
"Even if you don't wear it, you will put it in your dressing box and put it in your room. It will only cause you to be haunted by evil spirits for a little longer, but you will still die."
"I guess you encountered some danger after you went out today?"
"Yes... I was almost hit by a speeding carriage today. At that time, I just thought I was careless, but now I think about it... I don't know why I was distracted and walked into the middle of the road!" Zheng Fangfang said in a panic with a pale face.
She pulled off her hairpin and was about to throw it away, but Yun Qingqing grabbed her wrist and stopped her.
"It's useless to just throw this stuff away. Luckily, you only had it for a day. Let me clean it. Just go back and get some sun."
Yun Qingqing took the hairpin in her hand, and a golden light flashed at her fingertips.
I saw a burst of black mist coming out of the hairpin, and at the same time a hair-raising cry was heard in the air!
The black fog gathered together and turned into a ferocious shape and pounced towards Yun Qingqing, trying to wrap and swallow her.
But she was prepared. She threw out a talisman and absorbed all the black fog in a moment.
Zheng Fangfang hid behind Yun Qingqing, watching in amazement. When everything calmed down, she finally felt fear and anger.
"Yang Tong! Why do you want to hurt me like this!" She looked at her fiancé with gritted teeth.
Yang Tong's expression had changed several times during the process of Yun Qingqing subduing the infant evil, and his mind was in a state of confusion. At this moment, he immediately put on an expression of aggrieved.
"Fangfang, listen to my explanation. I don't know what's going on here either! I bought this hairpin because I thought it suited you. I never thought it was an evil thing!"
"Don't you know how I treat you? We'll be married soon. What good will it do me to hurt you?"
He spoke so sincerely that Zheng Fangfang hesitated again.
Yang Tong suddenly pointed at Yun Qingqing angrily and said:
"Besides, I clearly bought this hairpin at a jewelry store on the street. It's a store with official documents. How could it sell evil things?"
"Isn't this woman really using her witchcraft skills to bully us and scare us?"
Qing Jue twisted his arm fiercely and said angrily:
"How dare you slander our Pavilion Master in front of me? If you fart again, I will pull out your tongue!"
Yang Tong gasped in pain and closed his mouth.
But Zhao Yuling grabbed Zheng Fangfang with a frightened look on her face:
"Fangfang, don't you know what kind of person Brother Yang is? He will never hurt you! It's all my fault today. I shouldn't have dragged you to this store. This place... is really evil! Let's go quickly!"
She turned around and begged Yun Qingqing again:
"Master, we don't know how we have offended you. Isn't it okay for us to be afraid? Please let us go. We will not pursue this matter any further, okay?"
"If you are not satisfied, we can also compensate you with some silver. Just tell me the amount."
Yun Qingqing glanced at her coldly:
"Qingjue, turn up the left sleeve of this man."
Qingjue did as he was told without saying a word, and before Yang Tong could react, his sleeves had been turned up.
"Wow, it's quite elegant. There are even patterns embroidered on the inside of the cuffs! I'll learn something from it!"
Qingjue looked at the inside of the sleeve and smiled.
"I know this bird, it's a mandarin duck~. Hey, there's a word next to it, let me see... it says 'Yu Ling'! You're quite interesting, you're already engaged, why isn't the name of your fiancée embroidered on your body?"
Following Qing Jue's teasing words, the three people's faces turned pale.
Zheng Fangfang took a quick step forward and grabbed Yang Tong's sleeve. Her face turned from pale to blue, and she raised her hand and slapped him hard.
"Mr. Yang, explain to me what is going on!"
"What else could it be? This robe was sewn by your best friend herself. Can you guess whether there will be pairs of embroidery on the cuffs of your best friend's robe?" Yun Qingqing said with a smile.
Zheng Fangfang turned her head abruptly and glared at Zhao Yuling, causing her to step back and shake her head in panic:
"Don't listen to her nonsense..."
Zheng Fangfang rushed forward and grabbed Zhao Yuling's arm, then turned up her sleeves. Sure enough, she saw the same mandarin duck embroidery inside, and the words "Yang Tong" were clearly written on it.
She was so angry that she grabbed Zhao Yuling's collar and slapped her left and right.
"Zhao Yuling, how can you be so shameless! I've been so good to you, how dare you do such a thing behind my back!"
Zhao Yuling initially backed off because she felt guilty, but after being slapped several times, she became furious and pushed Zheng Fangfang to the ground.
"Zheng Fangfang, stop flattering yourself! You still have the nerve to say you're nice to me? I'm telling you, the thing I hate the most since I was a child is your smug face!"
"What did you say?" Zheng Fangfang looked at her in disbelief. She was so stunned that she even forgot to stand up.
Zhao Yuling pointed at her and screamed:
"You just rely on your family's money, don't you? Since we were little, you've always acted like a rich person, buying those good things that a poor family like me can't afford to touch, just to humiliate me!"
"Don't you think I don't know? You say that your sisters should have what you have, but in fact you just want me to curry favor with you and satisfy your hateful vanity!"
"What?" Zheng Fangfang was stunned. "I treat you as my own sister. I feel that I can't do without you in everything I have. How can you see it like this?"
"Isn't it! Stop pretending to be innocent!" Zhao Yuling's face was full of sarcasm.
Zheng Fangfang was so angry that she was shaking, her chest heaving violently, and she pointed at her and could hardly speak.
At this moment, a sarcastic laugh sounded, and Qing Jue folded his arms and spoke:
"Oh, this person is really shameless! If you look down on people's filthy money, why didn't you refuse the things they gave you?"
"Don't you know why you didn't refuse? He was obviously greedy for money, but you still had to lick him and pretend to be his friend. In the end, you still had the nerve to blame him!"
"I think you, a woman, are more shameless than a city wall!"
Zhao Yuling's face turned red and white, but this young man with fox eyes was so handsome and he even spoke up for Zheng Fangfang, which made her feel even more humiliated.
"You know what? You don't need to interfere in our affairs!" She gritted her teeth and argued.
He turned around and glared at Zheng Fangfang again:
"Let's not talk about anything else. It's obvious that Brother Yang fell in love with me first! But you dress up and flaunt yourself in front of him all day long, buying him this and that to show off how rich your family is! You even go to his house to please his parents. You are deliberately seducing him. How dare you criticize others!"
"Brother Yang obviously loves me. If it weren't for our parents' orders, how could he possibly ask to marry an ugly and vain woman like you!"
Her desire to use a man to save face was written all over her face.
Yang Tong met Zheng Fangfang's gnashing eyes and said hurriedly:
"Fangfang, don't listen to her nonsense. It's true that she gave me this robe, but I didn't know what she meant by that! I didn't even notice the embroidery inside. I'm also a victim in today's incident..."
"What!" Zhao Yuling was annoyed when she heard it. "How dare you do it and not admit it? It was you who first swore to marry me, but later you went to the Zheng family to propose marriage! I came to you to ask for an explanation, but you said it was all for my good life!"
"You planned to marry this woman first, then find a way to kill her, and then get her dowry and property and then come to my house to propose marriage!"
"Brother Yang, you swore to yourself that you would never betray me, why are you putting the blame on me now?"
