Chapter 369: Picked up the phone by some strange coincidence



"I just saw it. A sly-looking kid picked it up and immediately stuffed it into his pocket. He doesn't look like a good person. How could he possibly return it? This woman knew she couldn't get it back, so she wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to extort money!"

"What are you trying to blackmail?"

The middle-aged male ghost was indeed attracted by his words, but he was still a little confused.

"She's blackmailing the business community. If she were to run into a timid boss, he'd probably give her some benefits. But if she were a principled boss, she wouldn't get anything out of it."

Upon hearing this, Wei Mian couldn't help but look at the young man carefully.

Judging from the way this man is dressed, he should be a second-generation rich kid. His family has some business and he must have seen a lot of things.

"What are the characteristics of the person who picked up the wallet?"

Wei Mian's lips moved, but she didn't make any sound. However, her voice was clearly heard by the young male ghost.

"She's in her twenties, with shifty eyes, a little over 1.60 meters tall, skinny, wearing a fluorescent green down jacket with a white chest bag hanging on her chest."

The young male ghost replied very naturally.

After he finished speaking, he realized something was wrong. Why was the voice just now wrong? It seemed to sound like a woman?

"Brother, was it you who just spoke?"

The middle-aged male ghost was puzzled, "I didn't say anything!"

The young male ghost looked around. People were coming and going around him, and some were even coming over to watch the fun. Obviously, no one was looking at him, but he really heard someone talking just now.

He was so scared that he couldn't help but hug his shoulders. Oh, it was really scary.

Wei Mian told Zheng Hao what he had just heard. The young man immediately guessed the source of the information and turned to the young security guard and said, "I heard someone saw it. A short man in a fluorescent green down jacket picked it up. He had a white chest bag on his chest. You can check the surveillance cameras in other places to see where this person went."

When the security guard heard this, he quickly took out his intercom and asked other people in the security room to help retrieve the surveillance footage.

According to the time the girl said she lost her wallet, they checked the surveillance footage and soon found a young man dressed similarly in a nearby camera.

The crowd who heard the news all exclaimed how lucky they were that someone actually saw it.

The young security guard also felt lucky. He would have been tortured to death by this woman, otherwise it would have caused some bad public opinion and he would have had to bother explaining it. He kept thanking the witness in his heart, thanking him for not only seeing it but also remembering the man's clothes and appearance.

The girl who had been sobbing just now stopped crying. Her face flushed red and she kept looking at Zheng Hao shyly.

The security guard wanted to take her to the monitoring room to watch the video that had just been retrieved, but the girl kept hesitating after being called several times.

After a while, he came close to Zheng Hao and whispered, "That..."

The old men and women who hadn't left yet couldn't help but look over, making her face even redder and her voice a little more shy.

"Can you add me on WeChat? I'll be there to thank you when I find my wallet."

The old man, who had always disliked her, now had disgust clearly in his eyes.

Humph, you were so anxious just now because you couldn't find your wallet. Now that you have the news, instead of rushing over, you are asking for the young guy's contact information!

Even the security guard was speechless.

But there were also people who were just watching the fun, wanting to see how Zheng Hao would react to the girl's confession.

Wei Mian also looked at him with an expression of anticipation.

But Zheng Hao instantly put away the gossipy look on his face, cleared his throat seriously, and lowered his voice intentionally to make it sound particularly deep.

"Donor, I am a person from outside the world, and I practice the way of ruthlessness."

girl:"……"

"Puff"

Some people who couldn't hold back their laughter suddenly burst out laughing, felt it was not good, and covered their mouths tightly again.

The girl felt like she was slapped hard in the face. She was unwilling to give any excuse and even pretended to be a Taoist priest. Why didn’t she say she was a monk?

snort!

She snorted heavily and turned away.

After walking a few steps, he saw that the security guard still hadn't caught up, so he turned around and scolded him impatiently, "Are you going or not? Why are you taking so long?"

The onlookers looked at each other, and then laughed out loud when the others left.

Wei Mian looked again at the place where the two male ghosts had just stayed, but there was nothing there.

After everyone left, Zheng Hao resumed his cheerful demeanor. He leaned closer to Wei Mian and whispered, "Master, was there a ghost over there just now? It seems to be gone now."

Wei Mian gave him an appreciative look and said, "You've made progress!"

"Hehe, it's all thanks to my uncle's good teaching!"

Zheng Hao does not have the third eye, but he can make accurate judgments based solely on the perception of Yin energy. This shows that Wei Mian's teachings during this period have been very effective.

The two men walked into the supermarket talking and laughing. After they walked away, the young male ghost dragged the middle-aged male ghost out from behind the stone pillar. He let out a long sigh and patted his chest with lingering fear.

"That was a close call. I feel like those two aren't ordinary people. Let's make a bet. That woman is definitely not an ordinary person! What do you think?"

"No bet!"

Wei Mian's house was particularly lively during the Chinese New Year. Not to mention the people coming to pay New Year's greetings, even ordinary days were noisy.

With Zheng Hao, this restless guy, leading the others astray, it was only a week or so, but Liang Haoran's personality became much more cheerful.

It would have been fine if the Zheng Hao brothers just came by themselves, but they also packed a lot of food from the Zheng family. Someone delivered it on time every day, so the two little paper figures didn't have a chance to show off their cooking skills.

The three of them lived in Bishui Garden for a week. Finally, Wei Mian felt it was too noisy and sent everyone back.

As soon as the person left, Wei Mian received a call from Hou Xiangqin.

"You've really grown up so fast now. You're not even going home for the New Year? Look at yourself. It's been a few years. Ever since you left, you haven't come back!"

As soon as the phone was connected, Hou Xiangqin's not-so-friendly voice came over.

The smile on Wei Mian's face immediately faded. She didn't want to answer the call when she saw the caller ID, but suddenly she thought of Wei Jingxing who had come to see her daughter before, and she picked up the call for some unknown reason.

"It's not the first year I haven't been back. Why are you asking me now?"

Hou Xiangqin said confidently, "In the first few years, I thought you were young and ignorant, but now you're in your twenties, you can't be so ignorant! People think I, Hou Xiangqin, have raised an ungrateful person!"

Wei Mian really didn't want to waste time talking to her. "What's the matter? Why did you suddenly ask me to go back for the New Year? Why don't you just tell me your purpose? I don't believe you would ask me to go back for no reason."

As soon as Wei Mian finished speaking, Hou Xiangqin became unhappy.

"What purpose could it be? Your uncle Chen raised you for over ten years. Was it easy? Our family wasn't well off to begin with, but they saved their money to feed you. You're such a heartless girl! You've been away for years without even coming back to visit us. You bought things and mailed them to outsiders without even thinking about us. You're truly heartless!"

Wei Mian snorted, perhaps this last sentence was the reason for the call.
