Yang Han followed behind Huo Jixiu with trepidation.
Ever since he showed Huo Jixiu the trending topics about Gu Yichen and Miss Mu, his mood has been very off.
Especially the black wooden prayer beads on her wrist, which trembled violently as if being pulled.
As soon as I entered the office, the Buddhist prayer beads were flung away, and a chilling sensation instantly swept through my entire body.
Many items were shattered by an invisible force, which was very strange. Huo Jixiu also seemed to have become a different person, which made Yang Han feel afraid.
Just as he was calling Mu Tiantian, Huo Jixiu suddenly stood up from his wheelchair, which shocked him greatly.
Afterwards, Huo Jixiu drove to Gu Yichen's company.
To avoid any danger, Yang Han gritted his teeth and rushed ahead of him to get into the driver's seat, hurrying along as fast as he could, afraid of being held back and incurring his wrath.
He just hopes Huo Jixiu will recover quickly, otherwise he really can't continue being his assistant; it's too hard on his heart.
...
Looking at Gu Yichen, who was bordering on obsessive, Mu Tiantian was somewhat confused. "Gu Yichen, do you really like me by treating me like this? People have to be responsible for their actions. The person you should be responsible for is Zhao Qing, not me. Let me ask you, what will you do if Zhao Qing really gets pregnant?"
Without hesitation, Gu Yichen uttered words that left her incredulous: "Only you can give birth to my child."
The meaning is very clear.
If Zhao Qing is really pregnant, he will not hesitate to make her abort.
"What if she refuses even if it means death?"
Gu Yichen's eyes darkened slightly. "The decision is mine."
He wasn't joking.
Mu Tiantian suddenly found him somewhat terrifying and couldn't help but scold, "You're really sick, seriously sick."
As soon as she finished speaking, she raised her hand, preparing to cast a spell to shatter the array that was trapping her.
However, before she could even make a move, several screams were heard, and the sorcerers who had set up the formation were all blasted away by an invisible force.
The formation that had trapped Mu Tiantian was now gradually disappearing.
Gu Yichen turned around when he heard the voice, and Huo Jixiu was standing straight in front of him.
Huo Jixiu's first words were, "How come you're still alive?"
Gu Yichen stared at his legs in disbelief, "How could you..."
In an instant, Huo Jixiu teleported in front of Gu Yichen, smiling as he said, "How come I'm standing up? I told you I would definitely kill you."
The next second, Gu Yichen's neck suddenly tightened, and he felt a sense of weightlessness.
Huo Jixiu effortlessly lifted him up by grabbing his neck with one hand.
Veins bulged on Gu Yichen's forehead, his consciousness gradually blurred, and an immense sense of fear welled up from the bottom of his heart.
Seeing this, Mu Tiantian quickly ran over and hugged Huo Jixiu from behind, saying softly, "I want to leave here. Take me with you, okay? Don't worry about him anymore."
Her arms were trembling slightly; she was genuinely afraid that Huo Jixiu would kill Gu Yichen without a second thought.
Huo Jixiu didn't loosen his grip, but he didn't tighten it either. He placed his other hand on the back of her hand and chuckled softly, "You want me to let him go? Do you remember what you promised me? That you would never see him again in this lifetime."
"I promise you, I will never see him again in this lifetime. Didn't you say you wanted to get married? Let's go get our marriage certificate now and not waste our time on him." Mu Tiantian quickly agreed with him.
Upon hearing this, Huo Jixiu released his hand. Gu Yichen coughed violently, unable to exert any strength due to lack of oxygen, and could only lean against the wall to try to breathe.
Mu Tiantian breathed a sigh of relief, but he showed no intention of leaving. Instead, he took another step closer to Gu Yichen, and her heart skipped a beat.
Huo Jixiu reached out and hooked the red rope around Gu Yichen's neck and shoulder, pulling out a jade Guanyin from his collar.
Just as he grabbed the jade Guanyin and tried to pull it off his neck, Gu Yichen used all his strength to tightly grip Huo Jixiu's wrist, wishing he could break it.
But no matter how hard Gu Yichen tried, it was to no avail. He deliberately provoked him with harsh words, "If you have the guts, then kill me. Do you dare?"
Huo Jixiu narrowed his eyes, his gaze turning cold and sinister. "It seems you really want to die."
Mu Tiantian snatched the jade Guanyin and tore it off, then quickly grabbed Huo Jixiu's hand, afraid that he might do something else.
She looked at Gu Yichen and said resolutely, "Two years ago, you were possessed by a ghost because you helped me. So, to repay your favor, I gave you a jade Guanyin to protect you from evil spirits. Two years ago, I calculated that the plane would crash. I secretly threw away your plane ticket, which can be considered as saving your life. The two are even, and we are even. I want to take back this jade Guanyin."
"Gu Yichen, I've never liked you. Even without Zhao Qing, we would never have been together. I only considered you a friend, but now, I think we can't even be friends anymore. From now on, let's not see each other again. Goodbye." As soon as Mu Tiantian finished speaking, she pulled Huo Jixiu away.
I'm afraid that if I delay even a moment, something might go wrong.
Yang Han stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do for a moment, until Mu Tiantian called out to him, "Assistant Yang."
Yang Han then came to his senses and followed them out.
Gu Yichen leaned against the wall and slowly slid down to the ground, his mind filled with the scene of meeting her. She was wearing sunglasses, a Taoist uniform, and carrying a small box with Bagua (Eight Trigrams) on her back; she exuded "professionalism" from head to toe.
He initially thought the exorcist he had found was a man, but it turned out to be a woman. He couldn't help but doubt her abilities. He looked her up and down, somewhat worried, and asked tactfully, "Miss, this villa area used to be a cemetery. Can you handle it?"
Mu Tiantian pushed up her black sunglasses, glanced at the refined gentleman, and said calmly, "Mr. Gu Yichen, right? Wasn't the situation of your villa already explained in the email? There's no need to repeat it. Since I'm here, of course I can handle it. Are you doubting my professionalism?"
Hearing her gentle, slightly sweet voice, Gu Yichen suddenly felt a little embarrassed and smiled, "Of course I'm not questioning your abilities, Miss Mu, right..."
"Please call me Master Mu," Mu Tiantian corrected earnestly.
"Good Master Mu, I wonder if you have ever handled a case like mine in a villa area?" Gu Yichen hurriedly explained, "I'm not doubting your abilities, I just hope to find an experienced exorcist who can solve this quickly. I hope you can understand, Master Mu, I need it as soon as possible."
Mu Tiantian smiled confidently, "Of course, no problem at all, but it will cost extra. How fast do you want it to be?"
"At most three days."
“Double the price,” Mu Tiantian said bluntly. “Besides, I don’t need three days.”
Gu Yichen agreed. Even if Mu Tiantian's ghost-catching price went up again, it would still be more reasonable than hiring other exorcists.
Afterwards, he followed her around the villa area to check things out; he needed to understand the situation before continuing construction.
Mu Tiantian gave him a talisman for protection, but an accident still happened.
Many evil spirits rushed out and charged at Gu Yichen, their ferocious expressions suggesting they wanted to devour him.
Without a second thought, Mu Tiantian stepped in front of him. She had taken off her sunglasses at some point, and her bright almond-shaped eyes appeared before him.
She made him look into her eyes.
He felt as if he were trapped inside, unable to look away.
Her voice seemed to bewitch him, making him unable to control himself and do as she said, looking only into her eyes and ignoring everything around him.
No matter how the evil spirits howled in his ears, he was unaffected.
Her gaze seemed to possess a great sense of security, protecting him from the evil spirits.
After he came to his senses, Mu Tiantian had already subdued the evil spirits.
She waved in front of him and called out, "Mr. Gu? Are you awake?"
Her hands were very white and slender, and for some reason, he subconsciously took her hand in his.
Mu Tiantian was startled and quickly pulled her hand back, asking warily, "Are you possessed by a ghost?"
"No..." Gu Yichen smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I... I don't know what happened just now."
Mu Tiantian leaned closer, observing his peach blossom eyes that seemed to look at dogs with deep affection. He didn't seem to be possessed by a ghost, so she thought it was probably just a subconscious action when he had just woken up. She didn't pay much attention to it and said indifferently, "It's okay. I just used a little magic on you so you weren't scared by those evil ghosts. Otherwise, you would have fainted long ago."
From that moment on, he began to fall uncontrollably in love with her.
Two years ago, after being possessed by an evil spirit, the possession became increasingly irreversible...
The shrill ring of the cell phone snapped Gu Yichen out of his daze.
He answered the phone, about to ask who it was, but his throat was still hoarse and he couldn't speak.
"Yichen, the results are in. Zhao Qing is not pregnant." Han Muqi's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Gu Yichen didn't speak, but just gave a bitter smile.
But Han Muqi's next words gave him a jolt.
"Zhao Qing just encountered a ghost at my hospital and her mental state was severely affected. She was terrified and said something like, 'She didn't have sex with you. You were drunk and unconscious that day and couldn't do anything. She deliberately made marks on herself to deceive you.' She even begged Jiang Han to let her go. She also has many large and small marks on her body. I guess Jiang Han did something to her to make her so afraid."
Gu Yichen gripped his phone tightly, chuckling softly, his voice hoarse and chilling.
Han Muqi sensed something was off about the voice on the other end of the phone and called out, "Yichen?"
Thud—
Gu Yichen slammed his phone to the ground, tilted his head back helplessly, and looked at himself with an unreadable expression in his dark eyes.
His lips moved slightly, and he murmured softly, "Damn it..."
