Chapter 54: Show off your skills
Father Meng and Mother Meng looked at each other and saw the same suspicion in each other's eyes.
"Xuanlang, it's already this late, and you're still in the mood to make such a joke." Father Meng scolded directly, "Your sister is still lying in bed!"
"Uncle Meng, Aunt Meng, you can't judge people by their appearance like this!"
Before Meng Kairui could even open her mouth, Zhao Xuanlang jumped in, "This is my boss! She's incredibly capable! If she hadn't come to my rescue earlier, I wouldn't be standing here talking to you guys right now."
Father Meng suppressed his displeasure and said, "Xuan Lang, I know you want to help us. But everything should be done in moderation. Our family is really not in the mood to joke with you right now."
Mother Meng even ordered them to leave. "Xuan Lang, it's not convenient for us to receive you right now. Please go back first!"
"No, I--" Zhao Xuanlang wanted to say something.
But Zhong Nianyao grabbed her collar and pulled her aside. "Mr. Meng, Mrs. Meng, you don't believe me because I'm young?"
She wasn't angry about the suspicions of Meng's father and mother. If she were in their shoes, seeing a twenty-year-old girl claiming to be a master here, she would also be suspicious.
"Little girl, we don't know what kind of abilities you have, but our family affairs are not something you can interfere with."
Father Meng glanced at Zhong Nianyao and started to persuade her directly, "Besides, you are so young, you probably don't want to die here!"
It's not that they hadn't invited masters before, but as soon as those masters entered their home, they would just shake their heads, without even looking at them, and leave in a hurry.
He didn't know what abilities this little girl had, but since so many masters couldn't solve this problem, what abilities could a young girl like him have to solve it?
Hearing this, Zhong Nianyao's expression remained unchanged. She simply glanced around and said, "Your house is filled with yin energy. If someone were to live here, it would do serious harm to their health!"
After saying that, without even looking at the expressions of Meng's father and mother, he took out a piece of talisman paper from his bag and threw it into the air.
Everyone was a little puzzled by Zhong Nianyao's behavior.
Immediately, they saw the talisman paper spontaneously combust in mid-air without any fire. However, what shocked them most was not this, but the fact that as the talisman paper burned, the already low temperature in the room began to slowly rise. In the end, they even felt a hint of heat.
The temperature was surprisingly the same as the temperature outside.
Because the temperature in the house has always been low, even in such a hot summer, they did not turn on the air conditioner in the villa. This also caused the temperature in the room to be a little high as the temperature rose.
This also made Meng's father and mother, who were wearing long sleeves, immediately feel the heat and even began to sweat slightly.
The sticky feeling on their bodies not only did not make Meng's father and mother feel uncomfortable, but even a surge of joy surged from the depths of their hearts. They had not felt such warmth in this room for half a month.
"Master, you must save my daughter!" Mother Meng stepped forward and grabbed Zhong Nianyao's hand. "She is still young. If she continues like this, her life will be in danger."
After this incident, both Meng's father and mother, as well as Meng Ruikai, had a 180-degree change in their attitude towards Zhong Nianyao.
The masters of the past would turn around and leave immediately upon entering the room and feeling the chill. But this little girl, young as she was, restored the room's temperature in the blink of an eye. Such a skill was not possessed by ordinary people.
Now they really believe that the little girl in front of them might be able to help their daughter.
"I just said my boss is awesome!"
Zhao Xuanlang, standing aside, looked very proud. "Back then, my life was exchanged for someone else's, and it was the boss who saved me."
"Master..." Father Meng had just opened his mouth when he saw Zhong Nian Yao raise her hand to stop him.
"Don't call me Master," Zhong Nianyao raised her hand and shook her head, "Just call me Miss Zhong."
She wasn't familiar with the Meng family, so it was impossible for her to ask them to return her name. However, she also didn't like being called "Master," so it was best to just call her "Miss Zhong."
"Okay, Miss Zhong," Father Meng said quickly. "You must help my daughter. She's been possessed by some unclean thing, and now she's skin and bones. If she continues like this, she'll definitely die."
Mother Meng grabbed Zhong Nianyao's hand and refused to let go, her eyes full of pleading.
"Now that I'm here, I won't stand idly by." Zhong Nianyao pulled her hand back and continued, "I've already heard what happened from your son. But now, I need to see your daughter first to confirm what exactly happened."
"Xiaorou is upstairs."
Mother Meng quickly said, "I'll take you upstairs now."
Soon, the group headed upstairs.
Zhao Xuanlang was naturally among them, and this matter had nothing to do with him. But he couldn't resist his inner curiosity, so he wanted to take a look.
Moreover, he felt that as Zhong Nianyao's younger brother, he should naturally help at this time.
Although the Meng family didn't want to air their dirty laundry in public, this person had been introduced by Zhao Xuanlang. Furthermore, Zhao Xuanlang and their son had grown up together, and they knew him well; he was definitely not someone who would talk nonsense. Therefore, they didn't stop him.
Not long after, the group arrived at the door of a room.
Unlike the rising temperature inside the house, they could feel a hint of chill coming through the crack of the door just by standing at the door before even opening it.
That kind of chill was different from the chill they had felt when they entered the room just now. This kind of chill was as if it could freeze people to the bone.
"Why is it so cold?" Zhao Xuanlang couldn't help but rub his hands together, then turned and looked at Meng Kairui, "Xiao Rou must be freezing to death living in this room! Don't you guys know to turn on the heater for her?"
"We've thought about what you said." Meng Kairui smiled bitterly and shook his head, "But no matter how high the heating is, it's useless."
