Chapter 144: Master Jiang Seeks Help
Li Zhi put down her phone, turned to look at Xie Tingzhou who was sitting next to her, and said, "Qin Huan wants to treat us to lunch at noon, and I promised him."
Xie Tingzhou raised his eyebrows, "Why are you treating us to a meal?"
"He is leaving in the afternoon and thanks me for helping him." Li Zhi replied.
Xie Tingzhou nodded and said nothing more.
Li Zhi withdrew her gaze and continued to eat the breakfast that the father and son brought back for her.
When she finished her breakfast and was about to drink some water, her cell phone on the coffee table suddenly rang.
Li Zhi paused as she picked up the mineral water bottle, unscrewed the cap, tilted her head back and took two sips, then stretched out her other free hand to pick up the phone.
She leaned back slightly, leaning lazily on the back of the sofa, unlocked the screen and opened WeChat.
It was a message sent to her by Master Jiang Tianshi.
Master Jiang: [Master Li, good morning.]
Li Zhi took another sip of water, tapped the screen of her phone with one hand, and sent him a message, "Good morning, Xiao Jiang."
Jiang Tianshi: [Good morning, good morning, have you had breakfast?]
Li Zhi: [Just finished eating.]
Master Jiang: [Oh, I just finished eating. Did you have fun?]
Li Zhi looked at his inexplicable concern and raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly. "I'm very happy. But, Xiao Jiang, if you have something to say, just say it."
Jiang Tianshi: [Haha, Master Li, as expected, I can't hide anything from you.]
Master Jiang Tianshi: [I'm having some trouble here, and since you're here, could you spare some time to come and help me out...]
Li Zhi: [What happened to you? Tell me first.]
Jiang Tianshi: [Ouch, I type slowly. If it’s convenient for you, I can call you.]
Li Zhi: [Okay, go ahead.]
The next second, Master Jiang Tianshi called her.
Li Zhi leaned over, put down the mineral water bottle in her hand, raised her hand and pressed the answer button.
"Master Li." Master Jiang Tianshi's voice came from the other end of the phone.
Li Zhi leaned back on the sofa again. "Tell me, Xiao Jiang, what's the matter?"
Jiang Tianshi responded, "Didn't I tell you yesterday in the live broadcast room that I came here to take a job privately?"
"Yes, and then what? Did you encounter any trouble that couldn't be solved?" Li Zhi asked.
"My employer told me that his house was haunted, so he asked me to come and see what was going on."
"I went to check and saw that it was his old man who had passed away just seven days before his death and was causing trouble."
Jiang Tianshi coughed lightly and continued, "But I didn't expect this old man to be so fierce. He was actually a fierce ghost. I fought him last night, but I couldn't beat him and was slightly injured."
Li Zhi raised an eyebrow and immediately grasped the key point, "It's actually a ghost?"
Jiang Tianshi nodded. "That's right. What's very strange is that the employer told me that his old man died of natural causes at the age of 100, and even had a happy funeral. He shouldn't have become a ghost."
"It's my fault that I'm so inexperienced and helpless right now, so I'm bothering you, Master Li. Could you spare some time to come and help me solve this problem?"
"As for the money, Master Li, don't worry, I will give you all the reward. I don't want it."
"Master Li, what do you think...?"
"Okay, I get it, but I can't go there until the afternoon," said Li Zhi.
Jiang Tianshi's eyes lit up, and he quickly replied, "It's okay, it's okay, any time is fine, as long as you can come!"
"Send me the address and I'll come directly to your place this afternoon," said Li Zhi.
"Okay, send me a message before you come." said Master Jiang Tianshi.
Li Zhi nodded, greeted him, and then hung up the voice call.
Xie Tingzhou saw her hang up the phone and asked, "What's wrong? Are you going out this afternoon?"
Li Zhi put down her phone, turned to look at him, and nodded slightly, "Yes, Master Jiang Tianshi encountered some problems, I'll go over and help him solve it."
"Did you encounter a ghost?" Xie Tingzhou said.
"Well, he couldn't win and got injured." Li Zhi paused, then suddenly thought of something and continued, "I'll leave my son to you this afternoon. Take him here to play with Pei Yuanzhi and the others."
Li Yanjing came over and said, "I want to go with you."
As if he guessed that Li Zhi would refuse, he quickly took out the crescent moon and stopped her from saying anything, "Sister Xianyue is very powerful, isn't she? She can protect me!"
Li Zhi sighed softly, "What are you going to do? You can't help me exorcise ghosts. Can't you just play with your dad here?"
Li Yanjing tilted her head, blinked her big round eyes, and said in a baby voice, "I just want to see how you drive away ghosts, Mom."
Li Zhi met Xie Tingzhou's eyes again and understood from his eyes that he also wanted to go with them. He immediately said to the father and son, "Alright, then you can come with me. And bring Xianyue with you. Let her protect you."
Li Yanjing's eyes lit up instantly, "Okay! Daddy and I will be good and won't cause any trouble for you!"
Li Zhi curled the corners of her lips, "Yeah."
......
noon.
Li Zhi told Pei Yuanzhi and the others to bring Xianyue with them for dinner, and then the family of three came to the restaurant booked by Qin Huan.
It wasn’t far, just in a Western restaurant in the resort.
Qin Huan looked at Li Zhi and the other two who came in, stood up from his seat, and waved at them, "Here!"
Li Zhi noticed him and immediately walked towards him.
After they were seated, Qin Huan poured them each a glass of water and then handed the menu to Li Zhi, "Order whatever you want."
Li Zhi nodded, reached out to take the menu, lowered her eyes and began to read.
After ordering, Qin Huan took a sip of water. Suddenly, something occurred to him and he asked, "By the way, Miss Li, I haven't asked you yet. Are you a local?"
"No, I'm from Beijing." Li Zhi replied.
Qin Huan's eyes lit up and he put down his water cup. "That's great. I'm in Beijing too. This way, it will be convenient for us to meet in the future!"
He paused, realizing that his words were somewhat ambiguous. Afraid that Xie Tingzhou, who was sitting next to Li Zhi, might misunderstand him, he quickly changed his words and said, "I meant that if I need your help with something, this would be convenient."
Li Zhi looked at him and said, "Don't worry, Lucky, you won't need my help in the future."
Qin Huan touched the back of his neck and coughed lightly, "Then we can be friends. When I have time, I can treat you to a meal or something."
Li Zhi didn't refuse, because she knew that he didn't have many friends. She helped him and they got along well, so it was normal for him to want to be friends with her.
She raised her fair chin slightly and said, "Okay, we'll talk about it when the time comes."
"Okay." Qin Huan turned to look at Xie Tingzhou, raised three fingers, and said, "Don't worry, brother. I have absolutely no improper thoughts about Miss Li. I just want to make friends..."
