Chapter 22
It is neither a ghost nor a soul, but seems to be a spiritual being with thoughts born out of some powerful belief.
This is outrageous.
"Ms. Zhao, the pendant on your bag is very beautiful. Can you lend it to me to have a look?" Jin Chaochao asked.
Zhao Yuexi held the pendant in her arms, "No, this is my most precious thing, I never show it to anyone."
Jin Chaochao stared at the cold light that flashed in the pendant, pursed her lips, and said nothing more.
Since there is no danger, it is probably not her responsibility.
The banquet is over.
Xiang Tianze stood at the door of the banquet hall, watching Jin Chaochao get into Fu Tingyuan's car, and the smile on his face disappeared in an instant.
Fu Tingyuan actually dared not to give him face. He had inquired about Jin Chaochao and found out that she was just a girl from the countryside. She had no background and no skills.
Fu Tingyuan had no choice but to marry her.
How could a woman like this dare to reject him?
At this time, a middle-aged man passed by Xiang Tianze.
He raised his hand and grabbed the man's arm, then said with a smile, "Old Liu, I have something to tell you."
Liu Pinghou was Xiang Tianze's man. When he heard the boss' order, he immediately responded.
"Just tell me, I will definitely get it done for you."
Xiang Tianze leaned over and whispered in Liu Pinghou's ear, "Help me..."

As soon as Jin Chaochao returned to the Fu family, Qin Zhengnan called.
"Miss Jin, my uncle has been buried. The venue here has also been set up. When can you hold the ceremony?"
He was quite anxious because everything concerning the Qin family was of great importance.
Jin Chaochao glanced at the sky and said, "It's too late today, so it's not suitable. I'll be there on time at noon tomorrow."
"Okay, then I'll prepare everything now!"
Hang up the phone.
Jin Chaochao thought about the store, so she looked at Fu Tingyuan and said again, "I have something else to ask you!"
Fu Tingyuan was unbuttoning his shirt collar. Hearing this, he raised his head and said, "You say!"
"Do you have a construction team? Help me dig something!"
Fu Tingyuan wanted to say, are you sure you didn’t find the wrong person?
His company is so big and has so many businesses, but it has no construction team.
Even if there is, it is not his business.
But what he said to her was, "Dig what you want and dig where you want!"
Jin Chaochao told him about the purchase of the store.
After hearing this, Fu Tingyuan's cold eyes were full of impatience, but his hand reached into his pocket obediently, took out his mobile phone and called his assistant.
"Find a construction team and have them be on standby at *** Street tomorrow morning."
The assistant was confused. "Construction team? There are shops everywhere. Are there any shops that need renovation?"
Fu Tingyuan's tone was always serious and indifferent, "Dig for things and decorate the store at the same time."
Jin Chaochao saw that Fu Tingyuan had made all the arrangements and gave him a thumbs up, "Mr. Fu is really great. With you, I can save a lot of trouble."
Fu Tingyuan's face was dark, and his narrow eyes squinted at the woman, "Stop flattering me, I don't buy it."
As he finished speaking, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.
Jin Chaochao's gentle eyebrows relaxed, her eyes full of doubt, "Then what did Mr. Fu think of it? Tell me, I will help you next time!"
Fu Tingyuan gave her a cold look, then turned and left with his phone in his hand arrogantly.
Jin Chaochao looked at his back, tall and slender, very handsome.
You know what, it’s quite pleasing to the eyes.
After all, my grandma has high standards and is good at judging people. She is really picky about her marriage partner.
Jin Chaochao returned to the room.
Grandma floated out of the painting, "What's wrong? You look so worried."
Jin Chaochao told her grandmother about the spirit she found on Zhao Yuexi.
After hearing this, grandma thought about it for a long time.
"The thing you're talking about might be a spirit called Nian." Grandma said with a serious expression, "They are not souls, nor are they ghosts, nor are they humans. They are a spirit that transcends nature, born from human obsession."
Jin Chaochao was very curious, "Born out of obsession? But I don't feel any danger!"
Grandma smiled and said, "Because of love, there is no danger."
Jin Chaochao raised her eyebrows: "Born for love?"
Grandma seemed to recall something, and said in a leisurely tone, "I once saw one, it was a puppet. The man's wife passed away, and he missed her very much, so he took his wife's favorite puppet when she was alive to express his longing. He gave the puppet a name, made beautiful clothes for it, bought it a hat, shoes, and jewelry, talked to the puppet, and treated it like a person."
When something is given deep love, it will develop intelligence.
This thing is hard to come by because only true love can give birth to it.
It is a rare and precious item that is only seen once in a century.
Once the thought is conceived, the person will live happily for the rest of her life because she will no longer feel lonely.
Jin Chaochao thought of the pendant hanging on Zhao Yuexi's bag, which seemed to be an anime character.
The clothes that the anime character wore were very delicately made, and he wore a golden locket around his neck, which looked like it was made by himself.
I never thought there would be such a thing in the world.

The next morning.
When Jin Chaochao arrived at the store, Chen Yun had already packed her suitcase and was waiting at the door.
"Boss, you're here. This is the money from yesterday's clearance sale!" Chen Yun handed several thick stacks of banknotes to Jin Chaochao.
Jin Chaochao counted them and found that there were quite a lot.
She handed half to Chen Yun, "Have you cleared out all the goods in the warehouse?"
"All cleared!" Chen Yun held the money and was so happy that she didn't know what to say.
Jin Chaochao actually kept his promise and gave her half of the commission.
"Okay, this money is enough for you to find a good job. I'm going to renovate my place, so you don't need to look after the store anymore!"
Chen Yun said with a smile, "Boss, I have made an agreement with the owner of the milk tea shop next door. I will go to work for him after I leave your place. We can still be neighbors in the future. If you need anything, just call me."
Jin Chaochao made an OK gesture to her.
At her instruction, the construction team began digging the floor of the shop.
"When you dig about six feet, be careful to take out the things inside and don't damage them," she warned.
The boss of the construction team was a strong man with a full beard. He smiled flatteringly, "Don't worry, Miss Jin. We will definitely be careful."
After all, the boss is generous, and they have to do things to satisfy him.
After giving the instructions, Jin Chaochao took a taxi to Qin's house.
It was such a coincidence that when she followed the housekeeper into the Qin family, she heard a woman's sharp noise coming from the hall.
"The marriage is settled. Liu Zhishu will marry here as planned!"
Qin Zhengnan looked at the woman who was speaking harshly in front of him, and raised his thin lips slightly, "You don't have the final say on this marriage now!"
He wanted to wait for Jin Chaochao to come over and calculate for him which of the two girls was more suitable to be Mrs. Qin.
