Chapter 127 It's You
He stuffed the bag at Zhong Jiayi and shook his head with an expression that said, "You're hopeless." "Anyway, this episode is over. Just treat it as a vacation. It should take half a month to edit and release it. Think it over carefully."
He turned around and left with his luggage.
Now, the airport is bustling with people.
Zhong Jiayi, who had an invisibility talisman, just watched the crowd pass by her.
In the crowd, Gu Ji was pushed to the front. For a moment, Zhong Jiayi remembered that in that insect valley, Gu Ji led her out of the siege.
It seems like I can only see her back forever.
Why can I only see her back?
"Actually, I can help you." Charlie appeared again.
Zhong Jiayi was startled. She turned her head with a frightened look in her eyes.
Charlie's smile was tinged with conspiracy. "If you're willing, I can help you. I know a kind of witchcraft. If you use it, the person you like will be completely devoted to you for the rest of their lives. They can't live without you."
"It has to be me...?"
"yes."
Her hair brushed against Zhong Jiayi's arm. "It has to be you."

After having dinner with the Jun family, Gu Ji returned home and had a good sleep.
Although you can stay awake after reaching the Tongyou Realm and replenish your physical strength through spiritual energy or Yin energy, as a human being, there is nothing more relaxing than taking a good night's sleep on a soft bed.
In particular, grandma and Uncle Ye also rewashed their bed sheets, which had the scent of laundry detergent and the sun, and the room was also cleaned very cleanly.
Gu Ji lit a stick of incense for Lingyan and then slept for a full fifteen hours.
Ye Qingtong was even more amazing, she slept for a full seventeen hours.
Grandma was so scared that she thought something happened to them. She was afraid of disturbing them, so she went upstairs and downstairs, and then lingered at their door.
Gu Ji woke up to the sound of worried footsteps.
She opened the door just in time to meet her grandmother.
Grandma looked into her sleepy eyes and asked, "Did I disturb you?"
"No, I'm almost asleep. It's very comfortable, hehe."
While Gu Ji was washing up, grandma kept talking about how they had been away from home for the past few days and was busy in the kitchen.
The aroma of the food passed through Gu Ji's nostrils, making him feel happy and safe.
"A new neighbor moved in upstairs from us with a kid who's younger than you. I think he's in high school. Judging by his uniform, he's from No. 3 Middle School. Oh, that kid is so polite! Sometimes I even hear him practicing the piano at home. Yeah! We're such good friends!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Ji heard the sound of a piano coming from upstairs.
Grandma immediately raised her hand and pointed upstairs: "Well! Listen, isn't it played very well?"
Gu Ji listened carefully. Although he didn't understand what was good, he felt that the music was played smoothly and emotionally.
She nodded and spit out the foam in her mouth. "It's really good."
"Right! Every time he sees me, he calls me grandma. He's so sweet. But his parents are nothing! To be more precise, they're his biological father and stepmother. Don't they say that if you have a stepmother, you have a stepfather? In the seven days you were gone, I saw that man beat the child four or five times, twice to death. I rushed over to ask about it, and the house reeked of alcohol."
"His stepmother is even more excessive. She didn't even bother to act. She said in front of us that she wished the child was dead. After all, he's not her biological child. You said it wasn't excessive!"
Gu Ji frowned, "Too much!"
After washing her face, she asked, "Grandma, are you telling me this because you want me to help the child?"
Grandma rubbed her hands a little embarrassedly. "Well, you and Qingtong have set up some kind of celebrity company, right? I've seen a lot of young kids acting on TV now. You could try to sign them. They're very good-looking! But this is just a small suggestion from Grandma. I also know not to meddle in other people's family affairs, so I wanted to let you take a look. If you can help, then we can."
Grandma has always been a very sensible old lady and she really doesn't meddle in other people's business. Since she spoke up, it means that she really likes the child.
She supports me unconditionally, so it's okay for me to satisfy my family's small requests.
Gu Ji walked over and nudged his grandmother's face. "Okay, wait until Sister Qingtong wakes up so we can discuss this together, okay? After all, she is the founder, and I am just a shareholder."
After Ye Qingtong woke up, Gu Ji told her about this.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qingtong refused immediately.
She was in her pajamas, poking a piece of watermelon on the coffee table with a toothpick, then sat down on the sofa and turned on the TV.
"Grandma, I'm not overthinking it, but right after we left, someone suddenly moved into the house above ours that had been empty for years? I remember the upstairs owner went abroad, and they didn't sell the house. Did this family buy it or rent it?"
With more experiences, she had to think more.
She doesn't believe there are such coincidences in this world.
"Besides, the sound insulation on our floor is very good. Who wouldn't close the doors and windows when practicing piano at home? Who is he deliberately letting hear by leaving the windows open every day?"
Grandma defended herself: "It's so hot, it's normal for people to open the window to practice piano. It's for ventilation. I haven't heard it at night, only during the day."
"He doesn't go to school during the day?"
"I heard it on weekends. Sometimes I heard it very early in the morning, around five o'clock, and I would play it for half an hour." Grandma glanced at Gu Ji, trying to ask for help.
It's only been seven days, why has my granddaughter suddenly become so serious?
A little scared.
"Don't look at the time!" Ye Qingtong snorted, poking another piece of watermelon and bringing it to her grandmother's mouth. "No. 3 Middle School is a key middle school. As far as I know, they have to arrive at school at 6:45 in the morning, have 20 minutes of morning reading, and then go for morning exercises. It takes more than ten minutes to drive from here to No. 3 Middle School, and the bus takes 35 minutes. So he has to leave at 6:10 at the latest, and that's assuming there's no traffic. What time does he get up? No breakfast? Getting up so early in the morning just to practice piano for half an hour, and you happened to hear it?"
"Besides, who in their senior year of high school has time for this? Even if he really loves her to death, his dad and stepmother treat him so badly, why do they allow him to play the piano at home so early in the morning? Isn't that noisy? Isn't that contradictory?"
Gu Ji silently gave a thumbs up, it was amazing.
Ye Qingtong raised his eyebrows and waved his hand, saying, "It's no big deal."
After listening to this, my grandmother was silent for a while. The more she listened, the more she felt that there was some truth in what he said. "But... why did he have to go to so much trouble..."
Ye Qingtong shrugged: "Who knows? He might be close to me, close to Jiji, or for the sake of our Ye family's assets. After going through so much, we should be more careful."
The more I thought about it, the more it made sense. Grandma exclaimed, "Listen to our two great grandsons. Let's eat first. Your father has an appointment tonight, so the three of us will eat."
The moment the dish is served and the first bite of rice is taken into the mouth.
Suddenly there was a loud bang from upstairs.
Then came the man's angry voice, which most people couldn't hear clearly, but Gu Ji heard it clearly.
The man said, "If I don't beat you to death today, I'm not your father!"
