Chu Nian turned around, intending to follow the butler upstairs, but as soon as she reached the top of the stairs, she saw a man blocking her way: he was dressed in a vest, shirt and trousers, looking quite stylish, and with his stunningly handsome face and tall, dashing figure, Chu Nian was immediately struck by his appearance.
She was stunned for a moment, and said with no small amount of anger, "Lou Qianzong, what are you doing?"
Her shout startled everyone in the hall, who all turned to look at her. Only then did they see a stunningly handsome young man standing on the stairs.
Zhou Qianqian immediately fell in love again.
The Chen siblings were also visibly amazed. However, Chen Boteng was not only amazed but also pleasantly surprised, while Chen Baiying was amazed but also a little puzzled: Why did it feel like another uninvited guest had arrived?
Dr. Liu and the housekeeper were completely stunned: they probably never imagined that a man could be so beautiful!
Upon hearing Chu Nian's words, Lou Qianzong chuckled wickedly and said, "I heard that Mr. Chen's mansion has a nice environment, so I came to visit."
Who would believe that?! Chu Nian asked, "What do you mean?"
Lou Qianzong: "If you can move here and stay for a few days, why can't I?"
Chu Nian's eyelids twitched: This guy must be someone sent by the plot to annoy her!
But Lou Qianzong's words made Chen Boteng extremely happy. He said, "What, Mr. Lou, are you also thinking of coming here to stay for a few days?"
Lou Qianzong: "What, it won't work?" He was already preparing to cast a spell in secret. If Chen Boteng dared to say "no", he had plenty of ways to make Chen Boteng change his mind and say "yes".
Chen Boteng laughed and said, "Mr. Lou, what are you saying? If you could come and stay at my Chen residence for a while, I would be more than happy to do so."
Chen Baiying was puzzled as to when her brother had met such a stunningly handsome man. Hearing Chen Boteng's words, she asked curiously, "Brother, won't you introduce this gentleman to me?"
Chen Boteng quickly smiled and said, "Oh, this is Mr. Lou Qianzong, a singer who recently started performing at our New Jue Nightclub as a long-term resident singer..."
“A singer,” Lou Qianzong replied calmly.
Chen Boteng: "Yes, a singer."
Chu Nian chuckled twice: How come this guy is so good at patting himself on the back!
Lou Qianzong questioned, "What are you laughing at?"
Chu Nian: "In this era, the singers in nightclubs are called 'songstresses'..."
Lou Qianzong: "I'm a man, and besides, all the songs I sing are top-notch. To me, being a singer is the worst compliment I can get."
Chu Nian: "How arrogant!" Turning to Chen Boteng, she said, "Mr. Chen, since Lou Qianzong has moved here, what about the apartment he's currently living in..."
“It’s already ruined.” Lou Qianzong interrupted Chu Nian’s words again, his voice cool.
Chu Nian turned to look at him with some surprise: she didn't think those Taoist priests, after failing to besiege her and being seriously injured, would be foolish enough to go on to besiege Lou Qianzong. They couldn't even maintain the existing grand formation of the Chen Mansion anymore, so how could they possibly have the strength to besiege Lou Qianzong?
Lou Qianzong calmly smiled and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Chu Nian: "How was your apartment destroyed?"
Lou Qianzong: "Who would have thought that apartment building was so flimsy? I accidentally sneezed and it shattered."
Chu Nian continued to glare: Your apartment is more fragile than a fragile heart!
Lou Qianzong: "We'll have to trouble Boss Chen to pay the landlord's compensation."
Chen Boteng nodded repeatedly, just like a devoted fan, and said, "No problem."
Chu Nian looked at Chen Boteng with a puzzled expression: "Do you know that your male lead persona has completely collapsed?"
She said, "Mr. Chen, you're so easy to talk to, you'll easily go bankrupt." Lou Qianzong's apartment was undoubtedly deliberately vandalized by him.
Lou Qianzong laughed and said, "Miss Niannian, I will not take Mr. Chen's benefits for nothing, so please stop trying to sow discord."
His voice was cool, melancholic, and tinged with sarcasm, instantly penetrating to the heart of anyone who heard it.
Having won the Best Actress award three times in a row, Chu Nian was quite aware of the impact of her voice and tone on others, and she was so angry at this guy's actions that her lips twitched.
She openly sowed discord, but Lou Qianzong used a subtle and pervasive approach, which was also a form of sowing discord.
Few people in the room had a good impression of her to begin with, and Lou Qianzong's words struck a chord with them. Even Chen Baiteng, who didn't have a bad impression of her, looked at her differently than before.
Lou Qianzong turned around and went upstairs very naturally, saying, "Let's go, take me to pick a room."
The butler assumed the words were directed at him, because Chen Boteng had previously told him to take Chu Nian upstairs to choose a room. However, he had only gone up two steps when he saw Chen Boteng already striding up the stairs...
How could Chen Boteng be so carefree? Two zombies were suddenly moved into his house, but instead of being afraid, he was very excited and even told the housekeeper to add extra dishes for dinner.
Chu Nian had originally chosen a room with good lighting and ventilation, but Lou Qianzong said he wanted it, so the room became his. Chu Nian could only stay in the room next door.
After the sedative wore off, Chang Fenglin woke up and learned from Chen Baiying that two guests had moved into his house. One was a handsome man, for which Zhou Qianqian had shamelessly stayed at Chen's mansion until night; the other was Luo Nian.
Chang Feng was so frightened that he almost went crazy again.
Fortunately, because someone had to work at the nightclub that night, the Chen Mansion opened for dinner two hours earlier than usual. After dinner, Chen Boteng happily became the driver and drove Lou Qianzong (and Chu Nian) to the nightclub.
Zhou Qianqian said she wanted to go to a nightclub, and shamelessly got into the car, sitting in the back with Chu Nian.
After everyone left, Chang Fenglin secretly packed his things, planning to run away: he wasn't as foolish as the Chen siblings, who would believe that Luo Nian just wanted to talk to him; this female ghost definitely wanted to kill him.
He was right: there are many ways to talk things out!
Meanwhile, Chen Baiying had already gone to a small hotel not far from the Chen Mansion. The Maoshan Taoist priests were still there, and perhaps they had some way to deal with the female corpse. Her brother was like he was possessed, actually agreeing to let the female corpse move into the Chen Mansion. Did he think the house wasn't messy enough?
It was the dead of night.
In the desolate wilderness, Chang Fenglin frantically fled, carrying his suitcase. He had planned to leave by boat, but after walking towards the dock for a long time, he somehow ended up in the mountains.
He had never been to this wilderness before, and the howling night wind sounded like the wailing of ghosts, making him tremble with fear.
He sensed that Luo Nian's female corpse had caught up with him, so although he was afraid and knew that it was not advisable to stay in the deep mountains and forests for long, he still ran forward desperately. The more he ran, the more desolate the place became, and the steeper the hillside became.
Soon after, he saw a dilapidated courtyard.
