"Huh? It's nothing!"
Shen Xiyue was startled and immediately shut her mouth, taking a step behind Yan Ning.
Yan Ning calmly replied, "We're enjoying the night view. You two continue chatting, don't mind us."
"Oh dear, you guys be careful not to catch a cold."
Jiang Lan nodded with some confusion, glanced at them, and walked away.
After confirming that she had left, Shen Xiyue continued the previous topic:
"After he kissed me, my mind went blank. I struggled desperately, but he was very strong and I couldn't push him away."
"His lips were burning hot, constantly rubbing against mine; the feeling was so real."
Recalling that scene, a trace of panic still lingered in Shen Xiyue's eyes.
"I used all my strength to finally push him away, and then I woke up immediately. I looked at my phone, and it was exactly 4:00 a.m."
"When I woke up, I could still hear the voice of the man from my dream. He kept telling me to come find him."
"He also said his name was Chu Yi."
Shen Xiyue frowned, her eyes filled with unease. Her eyes reddened, and she said in a voice trembling with tears:
"I'm going crazy, sister, what's going on?"
Yan Ning pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "Sister, you've been entangled by Yin Tao Hua. This matter is a bit difficult to handle."
Shen Xiyue's eyes widened, and she quickly asked, "What is Yin Peach Blossom? Is it a dead person? That's terrifying!"
Yan Ning nodded and continued, "That's right, Yin Taohua is a dead person whose face can be clearly seen. He comes to your dreams to lock your soul. If you agree to him or go to him as he asks, he can take you away."
Yan Ning paused, frowned, and continued, "Generally speaking, these kinds of people will only bother you once or twice, and leave on their own when they see that you're not taking the bait."
"But there must be something to it about this kind of thing that keeps bothering you every day. It might be related to the feng shui of your home."
Shen Xiyue remained silent for a moment, somewhat doubtful, and retorted, "Is what you're saying true? You're not lying to me, are you?"
"My dad had someone specifically check the feng shui of our house, and it's excellent!"
Yan Ning smiled and said calmly, "Before I was found, I learned some fortune-telling and physiognomy. I just did a quick calculation with my fingers."
"You were born at 12 noon on September 19th. You often suffer from migraines, and even after seeing a doctor, the condition cannot be cured."
"Three months ago, you were hit by an electric scooter that suddenly flew out from the side of the road, and you broke your leg, right?"
Shen Xiyue was stunned by her words and her eyes widened in surprise.
She doesn't have many friends, and she took leave from school after breaking her leg last time.
How would Yan Ning know? Where did she hear it from!
Yan Ning remained calm and continued speaking slowly:
"You have a quiet personality and love to stay in your room watching anime in your spare time. You are also keen on shipping couples, and when you see a character you like, you can't help but buy related merchandise."
"You've never been in a relationship in all these years. In your mind, men are immature and arrogant, just a bunch of idiots."
"Don't say anything... I believe you!"
Shen Xiyue hurriedly interrupted Yan Ning, her voice trembling slightly.
She felt a chill run down her spine, as if she were a book that had been turned over, and Yan Ning was clearly reading out the secrets of each page.
She even felt that Yan Ning would read out her ID number any second now!
Yan Ning's lips curled into a faint smile, and she said softly:
"So you can completely trust me, I genuinely want to help you."
Shen Xiyue raised her head and looked into Yan Ning's eyes. She had never seen such bright and clear eyes before, like a clear spring with no impurities.
Shen Xiyue felt something deep inside her quietly melting, and a strange sense of trust welled up inside her.
She nodded, a hint of expectation in her voice, and asked earnestly, "So what should I do now?"
Yan Ning blinked, affectionately linked her arm with Shen Xiyue's, and said with a smile:
“From now on, I, Yan Ning, am your good friend. Tell your mother that you are going to invite me to your house to play.”
———
After informing Ye Wenxiu, the two arrived at the Shen family home without incident.
Yan Ning saw a magnificent villa.
The Shen family villa covers a vast area, with lush greenery in the courtyard.
When the servants saw Shen Xiyue return with Yan Ning, they were all stunned for a second, their expressions somewhat surprised.
As Shen Xiyue led Yan Ning upstairs, she casually remarked:
"Normally, it's just my mom and me living at home, and a few aunties help with the housework."
“My dad is too busy with company affairs to get away, and my brother spends all his time hanging out with his friends, he’s not serious at all.”
Yan Ning followed behind, observing the surroundings discreetly.
She examined the feng shui of their house. The villa had a clever layout and an excellent location, so in theory, there shouldn't be any evil spirits there.
They arrived at Shen Xiyue's room, which was spacious and beautiful, but the lighting was somewhat dim.
Upon opening the door, one can see that the room is filled with dolls and millet.
The dolls were all different shapes and sizes, dressed in beautiful clothes, with big, open eyes.
Yan Ning frowned slightly, looked around, and keenly sensed that her room was filled with a faint, eerie aura.
It was much colder here than elsewhere, and a chill crept across their skin.
Yan Ning's face darkened, and she said in a cold voice, "The male ghost that's been haunting you is hiding in your room."
Upon hearing this, Shen Xiyue's expression changed, and she said in a tearful voice:
"What?! It's in my room! How terrifying! What am I going to do?"
Yan Ning walked around the room, her eyes taking in every corner.
Finally, she stopped in front of an ancient-style doll.
The doll is dressed in exquisite ancient costume, with its eyebrows and eyes lowered, appearing harmless.
She reached out and deftly lifted the doll, saying calmly:
"Xi Yue, can I borrow a light?"
"Huh? Let me look for it."
Shen Xiyue was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly searched the room and found a lighter, which she quickly handed to Yan Ning.
Yan Ning took the lighter, pressed it lightly with his thumb, and a flame immediately shot out.
She pointed the flame at the antique-style doll and said in an icy voice:
"Come out or not, or I'll burn you and your doll to death."
As she spoke, she slowly brought the flame closer to the antique-style doll.
At that moment, the doll's eyes suddenly flashed strangely.
The next second, a wisp of smoke drifted out and quickly hid in the shadows of the room.
The wisp of smoke swirled in the air a few times before gradually taking shape.
It was a man wearing a white long gown.
The man was very handsome, like a figure in a painting, with a high nose bridge and rosy lips.
His dark eyes glared fiercely at Yan Ning, his whole body radiating intense hostility.
