"Why did you keep this from Sister Ji?"
Qian Hanying, who had overheard Qian Huailin and Ji Qian's conversation, was very confused by her brother's inconsistent statements. She even emphasized one point:
"Although Sister Ji may threaten and intimidate others, she is truly a good person!"
"This has nothing to do with whether she is a good person or not."
Mr. Qian saw right through his son's little scheme:
"Are you worried that they'll be too afraid to deal with Wan Niang?"
Qian Huailin does not deny this:
"Father, Mother, you've seen what these people are like. Apart from that little girl surnamed Han, the others are all cowards!"
When this matter was mentioned, Qian Huailin was quite disappointed: "Especially that Xu Qi, who is clearly well-versed in the law and has a natural talent, is ridiculously afraid of ghosts."
That day he told me that when he was a child, he was even so scared by a ghost that he wet his pants... Oh, he told me not to tell anyone!
Qian Huailin looked up at his family members, whose expressions were unreadable, and sighed helplessly:
"Sigh, never mind, let's just keep this to ourselves and not let anyone else know about it."
Qian Huailin was unaware that his words had already been broadcast live across the country.
Congratulations, the whole country knows now!
[Xu Qi: Some people are alive, but in reality they are already dead.]
[It's over, my aloof male god is gone forever.]
[Xu Qi: Am I handsome? I earned it with my guts.]
That's enough, I feel sorry for him!
[Does anyone understand? I thought I'd found a great idol, but I woke up to find he's a comedian.]
While the barrage of jokes on the screen was in full swing, Qian Huailin's discussion continued on the other side:
"Moreover, Wan Niang's situation is different from other evil spirits."
She is not only an evil spirit, but also the key element of the dual formations of gathering evil and transforming yin.
I've read in ancient books that both of these magic arrays can transform negative emotions generated by living people into power, and I'm worried that Wan Niang may have the same ability.
If my guess is true, then having Ji Qian and the others face Wan Niang with fear will only be counterproductive.
"It would be better to keep it from them from the beginning. If Ji Qian's power can be used normally, he might actually be able to defeat Wan Niang."
After explaining the reasons, Qian Huailin reiterated, "Therefore, they absolutely must not know about this!"
Ji Qian: Sorry, I overheard you.
"Is this very dangerous?" Thinking of the help those living people had given her family these past two days, Madam Qian felt a pang of reluctance.
Qian Huailin saw through his mother's thoughts and quickly comforted her, "Don't worry, I've made all the preparations. Even if Ji Qian is no match for Wan Niang, I will have my own way to protect them."
Having said that, Qian Huailin couldn't help but feel a little helpless: "I am ashamed to say that if I weren't so dull-witted, I wouldn't have had to drag innocent people into this mess."
"Sigh!" The five members of the Qian family sighed in unison and then fell into a long silence.
Seeing that there was no more important information, Ji Qian stood up, patted Director Liu on the shoulder, and said, "I'm sorry."
Then she turned and walked out of the monitoring room, leaving Director Liu standing there in disbelief.
Director Liu was stunned for a moment before turning to the equally astonished assistant director: "Is she apologizing to me?!"
The assistant director was still in shock and only gave a blank "hmm".
After receiving confirmation from the assistant director, Director Liu felt a smug smile creep up his face: "At least this girl has some conscience."
Welcome to "The Making of a Masochist"
I would call Ji Qian a master of PUA (Pick-Up Artist) techniques.
[Ji Qian, please start teaching! I'll definitely sign up!]
[I just don't understand. Director Liu seems like a pretty shrewd person, so how come he becomes so stupid when he's with Ji Qian?]
[What you didn't understand before: Under the absolute suppression of force, humans will lower their intelligence in order to survive.]
In short, it's self-pity/psychological manipulation.
Qian Huailin was completely unaware that Ji Qian had spied on his secret conversation. In fact, he felt a little relieved when he saw Ji Qian skip over him.
Ji Qian walked straight up to Qian Handuo. To this female ghost she had once fought, Ji Qian's first words were neither accusation nor interrogation, but rather:
Are you satisfied with the tombstone I picked out for you?
Although Qian Handuo didn't understand Ji Qian's intentions, she still nodded honestly.
Ji Qian was satisfied with this, but still ruthlessly pulled Qian Handuo's "tombstone" out of the ground.
Before she left, she explained something to Qian Handuo:
"This is just a temporary loan; I need to return it now that I've finished my business." With that, she picked up the stone again and ran off into the distance.
While Ji Qian was returning the large rock to its rightful owner, Mi Yesi sidled up to Han Mengyao and asked mysteriously, "Don't you think that rock looks familiar?"
Normally, stones all look similar, so even if you've seen them before, you wouldn't have a strong impression of them. But the stone that Ji Qian found was different.
The stone is about half a person's height, light gray in color, and evenly covered with tiny white spots.
Moreover, if you look closely, you'll find that the stone has a faint green tint.
Han Mengyao hadn't paid much attention to the stone before, but when Mi Yesi mentioned it, it actually looked somewhat familiar.
Before Han Mengyao could even ask, Ying Xu, who had overheard their conversation from the other side, quietly crept over:
“I also feel like I’ve seen that stone somewhere before, but I just can’t remember where.”
Zhao Chengyuan, who had been silent all along, finally came over.
In fact, he and Ying Xu set off at almost the same time, but in order to maintain the image of a composed senior, he deliberately slowed down his pace.
Seeing the expectant looks in the eyes of the three people in front of her, Mi Yesi felt her gossip-loving soul was greatly satisfied, so she stopped keeping them in suspense:
Before the show started filming, Director Liu went on a segment for "1616 Breaking the Copper Eye".
