Ji Ruwen looked at Shi Xi, who was engrossed in eating, with a sense of déjà vu, as if she were watching a piglet that hadn't eaten for three days.
"..." Is this guy possessed by a pig spirit?
Shi Xi didn't care about him. He was so engrossed in practicing his magic today that he didn't even think about lunch. He was so hungry that he could eat a whole cow raw.
Gan Sui noticed two cartoon bandages on Shi Xi's neck, his eyes darkened slightly, and he asked, "What happened to your neck?"
He remembered that Shi Xi didn't have this thing on her yesterday.
Add to that the table full of dishes: stir-fried pig's blood with spinach, stir-fried wood ear mushrooms with eggs, black chicken soup... almost all of them are blood-nourishing.
It seems that a lot has happened during his absence.
Hearing him say that, Ji Ruwen looked over as well.
Shi Xi subconsciously touched the band-aid. When he came back, he found that Ruan Jingshan's teeth marks had not faded and had turned into a bluish-purple color. He put on the band-aid to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.
Shi Xi coughed awkwardly, "I fell."
Did you fall?
How could someone fall and hit their neck like that?
Upon hearing this, Ji Ru immediately looked at Qi Tingsong sitting next to Shi Xi, only to find that the other man's complexion was also not good, with obvious dark circles under his eyes, as if he had not slept well all night.
"I'm finished eating, so I won't bother you any longer."
Not wanting to watch the young couple showing affection in front of him any longer, Ji Ruwen adjusted his glasses, got up, and left.
Gan Sui frowned as he watched him leave.
His initial assessment doesn't seem to have been very accurate...
Gan Sui looked at the spinach in his bowl, then put it aside with disdain; he didn't like this dish.
Qi Tingsong didn't care about Ji Ruwen's departure. His gaze shifted from Shi Xi's neck to her pocket, and he noticed that the area was smooth, which made him feel a little better.
The relationship between the keeper and the earthbound spirit was too intimate. They spent every day together, eating and sleeping together. As far as he knew, there were several cases of keepers being with earthbound spirits.
But none of them met a good end; some died, others went insane…
A spirit bound to a master is essentially a spirit that has been put in shackles. However, if the spirit's obsession is too deep and it also wants to suck the blood of its master, the consequences could be unimaginable if it loses control.
"There's some progress on the Qiu family's matter," Qi Tingsong suddenly said.
Shi Xi leaned back in her chair, turned her head slightly to look at Qi Tingsong, and asked, "You found the person?"
“No.” Qi Tingsong looked at Shi Xi. “I found someone nearby.”
Shi Xi immediately understood what Qi Tingsong meant.
Generally, the perpetrator will return to the crime scene.
Qi Tingsong continued.
Since leaving the Qiu family after the assessment, he had sent people to secretly observe the area until recently when he discovered that someone was lurking around the villa every day.
And they even burned things outside the villa.
It's obvious something's wrong.
"Shall we go over there now?" Shi Xi suggested.
Qi Tingsong glanced at Shi Xi, then at Gan Sui, who was planning to follow, and smiled, "Okay."
"However, some preparations need to be made."
"What preparations?" Gan Sui asked Qi Tingsong.
“What he burned were love letters, for Qiu Cijing.” Qi Tingsong glanced at Gan Sui.
Upon hearing Qi Tingsong's words, Shi Xi immediately understood the other party's identity, guessing that he was one of Qiu Cijing's ex-boyfriends.
“So…” Qi Tingsong put his hand on Shi Xi’s shoulder, seemingly unaware of the displeasure in Gan Sui’s eyes, “we’d better put on a show to lure him out.”
"What do you want to act in?" Gan Sui asked bluntly.
Qi Tingsong looked at Gan Sui.
What does he want to act in?
He naturally wanted to play the role of the wife beating up the male mistress.
