Chapter 409 The Coward's Black Moonlight Witch 40
During lunch, Chu Bojian looked at his arms from time to time, thinking about where to put the tattoo.
Shen Xinran noticed his strange behavior and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Chu Bojian said with a hint of joking, "What do you think of me sticking a green dragon on my arm?"
Shen Xinran pursed his lips and said bluntly: "Ugly."
Chu Bojian was puzzled. "Why is it ugly? I think it's cool."
Shen Xinran pressed her lips into a straight line, "I think Meimei looks better, why don't you put on Meimei!"
Tan Shuai was confused as he listened, "What is Meimei?"
Chu Bojian replied unhappily, "A pink jellyfish."
Shen Xinran's eyes sparkled as she stared at Chu Bojian intently, "When are you going to post a beautiful picture? I want to see it."
Chu Bojian: "...I suddenly don't want to post it anymore."
Shen Xinran grumbled, "You are so fickle."
He Baifeng picked up a piece of food for Shen Xinran and said with a smile: "Your body was given to you by your parents, why do you stick those things on it!"
That afternoon, Xu Peng found Chu Bojian, handed him a tattoo sticker, and said with a smile, "I'm really nice, I even personally delivered it to you."
Chu Bojian felt a little embarrassed and said, "You'd better take it back. I suddenly don't want to stick it on anymore."
Xu Peng asked in confusion: "Why?"
Chu Bojian explained, "I'm still studying, and posting this would have a bad influence."
Of course, more importantly, he was afraid that Shen Xinran would see him wearing the Qinglong sticker and would clamor for him to wear the Meimei sticker.
Others all stick dragons and tigers, but if he sticks a jellyfish, he will be laughed to death if he tells others about it!
Xu Peng didn't embarrass Chu Bojian, but nodded, "Okay then, next time you want to post it, tell me."
…
Whenever He Baifeng performed a ritual, Tan Shuai would take the initiative to follow along. Every experience made him terrified, but as long as he thought of Tan Jing, he would grit his teeth and persevere.
Tan Shuai's life is full of challenges every day, and Wang Yaling and Tan Xiangdong's lives are also quite difficult.
At first, the two of them only ran a small business selling vegetables, but later, they adopted Tan Jing and started wholesale vegetables, and their business grew bigger and bigger.
As the Chinese New Year approaches, they have ordered a large quantity of vegetables from other places, hoping to make a fortune by taking advantage of the holiday business opportunities.
In order to save costs, they did not choose a transportation company, but instead found a familiar truck driver to help deliver and pick up the goods.
However, the truck driver had a serious car accident on the highway due to fatigue driving, and their vegetables were scattered all over the ground and all frozen.
Tan Zhidong found the vegetable supplier, but the supplier said that the vegetables had already been loaded and that the risk was borne by the supplier, and refused to pay compensation.
Wang Yaling found the truck driver again, but the driver was still lying unconscious in the hospital. His family members were crying and demanding compensation for the medical expenses.
The two of them were so busy with this matter that they were exhausted.
What’s worse is that customers complained that the vegetables sold previously contained excessive pesticide residues, and the matter was even reported to the regulatory authorities.
After receiving the report, the Municipal Supervision Bureau took immediate action and ordered their shops to close and suspend operations for rectification.
Tan Zhidong sat on the sofa, his face full of fatigue. "I really don't know what happened recently. Why do bad things happen one after another?"
Wang Yaling also sighed, "If it really doesn't work, let's find someone to calculate it and see if it's Tai Sui."
Tan Jing walked out of the room, her eyes flickering, as if she had thought of something but didn't dare to say it out loud. She smiled at Tan Zhidong and said, "Mom and Dad, I'm going to my violin lesson."
Tan Zhidong nodded and said, "Go ahead."
In the past, whenever Tan Jing went to class, he and Wang Yaling would pick one of them to walk her to school. But today, neither of them wanted to leave; they were simply not in the mood.
Tan Jing went downstairs alone, carrying her violin case. As soon as she left the complex, she saw a middle-aged man wearing a large hat standing in the shadows at the edge of the building, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
The middle-aged man's eyes were sharp. He didn't say anything, but just nodded slightly, motioning Tan Jing to come over.
Tan Jing's heart beat faster, but she knew she couldn't refuse. She took a deep breath, tried to look calm, and then walked towards the middle-aged man.
Chu Bojian was sitting with some friends playing cards when he heard one of them say, "Do you know that Xu Peng is dead?"
Chu Bojian was stunned, and the cards in his hand almost slipped. "How could he be dead? We just met two days ago."
Another person shook his head and sighed, "I heard that he returned home and remained unconscious, and then gradually stopped breathing, as if something had sucked out his energy."
The person who spoke first interrupted, "How can there be so many supernatural things? In my opinion, he just got sick and didn't make it..."
Several people kept talking, but Chu Bojian's mood suddenly became very heavy. Life is unpredictable, and you never know which will come first, tomorrow or an accident.
That day, He Baifeng was invited to perform a ritual at a family's home and earned two thousand yuan with her superb acting skills. After returning home, she put the money she earned into an iron box at the back of her wardrobe.
With nothing to do, she started counting the money, but when she counted, she found something was wrong. The money here was nearly 20,000 more than she expected.
If it was just two thousand more, she might have suspected she had misremembered it, but this was twenty thousand, there was no way she could have misremembered it.
Only Shen Xinran knew where her money was, so He Baifeng went straight to Shen Xinran and asked, "Niuniu, did you put the extra money in grandma's money box?"
Shen Xinran was eating a lollipop. She nodded and said in a relaxed tone, "I put it in there."
He Baifeng was originally skeptical, but when she heard Shen Xinran say this, her eyes widened instantly, "Where did you get so much money?"
Shen Xinran frowned and pondered for a moment, then took out his notebook and read the words on it: "For helping Teacher Chen see Zheng Tong, he gave me five thousand. For helping Zheng Tong reincarnate, Teacher Chen gave me another ten thousand. For helping my classmates deal with the black zombies, he gave me fifteen hundred..."
With each income that Shen Xinran softly read out, He Baifeng's heart was in turmoil. "How do you know this?"
Shen Xinran blinked and answered as if it was a matter of course: "Always."
He Baifeng's brows were tightly knitted together. She gently touched Shen Xinran's head and said with a stiff smile, "Niuniu, be good. Don't do these things for others in the future."
Shen Xinran tilted his head, looking puzzled, "Isn't this good?"
He Baifeng hugged Shen Xinran into her arms, her voice soft but firm, "But grandma just wants our Niuniu to grow up safely."
She knew in her heart that this was not a good thing. She even felt that this might be a punishment from God for deceiving others over the years.
Shen Xinran frowned slightly, "But I have already promised Teacher Chen to help Zheng Tong reincarnate."
He Baifeng comforted softly: "Okay, then we will not help you anymore after we helped you this time. Grandma has also retired from the business."
Although Shen Xinran didn't know why He Baifeng asked her to do this, she nodded readily, "Okay then."
