Chapter 209 Master Gu is so calm!
His joke made Gu Yunxi laugh.
"You know what, you can really see the marks on your face. If you want my amulet to save your life, it really won't protect you. You'll be tormented by nightmares every night!"
[Another person tormented by nightmares. Looks like they haven't done much wrong.]
[He's Boss Ran's son, you know. His father doesn't seem to have done much wrong, so it looks like this karma is coming back to haunt the kid.]
"Nightmare...? How did you know?"
Ran Yuanzhou's face suddenly turned deathly pale. Staring at the beautiful woman in the camera, he felt a chill run down his spine!
"I not only know you have nightmares every day, but I also know you're a murderer."
Upon hearing this, the man was so frightened that he lay face down on the table, burying his head in the camera lens.
He even heard strange noises. "Master... I... I didn't kill anyone, I really didn't kill anyone, I didn't mean to."
[Seriously? The streamer's few words scared him like this? Isn't this just asking for trouble?]
[A while ago, paparazzi reported online that his ex-girlfriend had been murdered again. Could the killer be the person in the video?]
[Not necessarily. His ex-girlfriend was a minor internet celebrity, and it seems the breakup was unilateral. However, she hasn't updated her public WeChat account since then.]
Wait, did anyone hear that strange creaking sound coming from that man's direction besides himself?
I darted forward, slammed the doors and windows shut, leaped onto the bed, and huddled under the covers. The ghost was coming.
Xiao Wu, who was on duty in the western district of Chongqing and watching the live broadcast, immediately became vigilant.
After the woman disappeared, her family reported the case to the police, and the case was filed, but there has been no progress to date.
Unexpectedly, her ex-boyfriend appeared. If it weren't for the information provided by netizens, she wouldn't have recognized him as the handsome and eye-catching young man who often appeared on screen.
His intuition told him that tonight's live stream would definitely be rewarding.
He opened his phone and started calling for help, after all, the girl was a minor internet celebrity and her family was wealthy, so he was pressuring her to get help.
Solving this case is secondary; at least I did a good deed.
No one knows whether his ex-girlfriend was murdered or disappeared on her own initiative. They also kept a close eye on Ran Yuanzhou, but he had no clues.
I never expected him to reappear on camera looking like an old man; there's definitely something wrong with him.
Ran Yuanzhou stood ramrod straight, his body drenched in cold sweat. Hearing the noise behind him, he froze in fear.
Someone was knocking on the door. To be precise, I didn't know what was knocking. At first, it was like raindrops, very light, but gradually the raindrops got bigger and bigger, as if it might break down the door at any moment.
Even the doorknob started to shake from side to side. Could it be... could it be her?
It shouldn't be her. Although I have nightmares every night, she has never appeared in my dreams.
Suddenly, he grabbed his phone and crawled under the table. "Master, no, great immortal, something seems to be in trouble here. Something is trying to get in. I don't want to die. I'm only twenty-six. Can you save me?"
Meanwhile, Gu Yunxi on the other end of the camera continued to sip her tea with a smile, unhurried and even cracking sunflower seeds.
Netizens noticed that Master Gu looked like he was watching a good show; he's usually very serious during his live streams, and rarely shows this expression.
Presumably, everything is under his control.
Ran Yuanzhou stared at the female anchor, whose life or death was none of his concern, his teeth grinding together and his hands unconsciously clenching.
If he can put it off until tomorrow and then immediately go to find this woman, that's outrageous. Doesn't he have any sense of public morality?
He banned her account, cutting off his livelihood, and started imagining how to kill Gu Yunxi.
[Master is so calm. I think this man is terrified. Could it be that his ex-girlfriend was really harmed by him?]
[If everyone's saying that, then the person outside must be a vengeful spirit coming to claim a life. I need to find another place to watch the live stream; the living room is too cold.]
"You think you're so great? Tell everyone about your ex-girlfriend."
As soon as Gu Yunxi spoke, the knocking stopped.
Ran Yuanzhou breathed a sigh of relief. Was this the power of metaphysics?
What he didn't know was that the person knocking on the door wasn't his ex-girlfriend's spirit at all.
"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
The man crawled out from under the table, slumped into a chair, looking as if he had just been caught in the rain. He was about to make up a convincing story to fool these people.
But the moment he sat down, his mind seemed to go out of control, and he blurted out everything he had ever done.
His ex-girlfriend, Beibei, was from out of town. Her family wasn't well-off; they ran a small business and managed to get by.
After graduating from university, his girlfriend Beibei did not rush to work, but instead started a live streaming job like everyone else.
She is very pretty, with an oval face, round eyes, and a pair of dimples on her cheeks when she smiles.
Ran Yuanzhou stumbled upon her live stream and discovered that she was different from other girls. She wasn't wearing fancy clothes or using special lighting; she was just sitting quietly in front of the camera.
Wearing a white dress, with her long hair cascading over her shoulders and adorned with pretty butterfly hair clips, she held up a book and was actually sharing historical knowledge with a small group of online friends.
She had seen all kinds of beauties, but this one was different. Whether it was her uniqueness or her refined and elegant beauty, she deeply attracted Ran Yuanzhou.
He immediately sent dozens of "cloud-piercing arrows," which propelled the girl's live stream to the top of the trending searches.
Watching her live stream, Feng Beibei was so surprised that she covered her mouth with her hand, repeatedly saying, "Thank you so much, brother! This is too much! You've gone to so much trouble!"
She receives small tips during her daily live streams, and there's also support for new streamers in the backend. Earning two or three hundred yuan a day is quite a lot for her.
She didn't know what to do with such a big fan on the top of the fan club. Ran Yuanzhou kept sending her messages, wanting to add her on WeChat.
He also lied and said that he was particularly fond of history, asking her to tell him more about it when she had time.
Feng Beibei, new to the internet, was naive and accepted Ran Yuanzhou's friend request without any suspicion.
The naive girl couldn't resist the sweet talk and flattery of the playboy, so she agreed to his request, and the two got together.
They moved in together in less than three days.
Unexpectedly, she became pregnant in less than a month.
Ran Yuanzhou arrogantly handed over a check, demanding that she have an abortion and leave him.
After all, the women he had slept with before would have left eagerly upon seeing a check for 100 million yuan.
However, Feng Beibei was different; he underestimated the Feng family's upbringing.
Ran Yuanzhou had no mother, so he never experienced maternal love. His father changed women more often than he changed clothes, and no woman ever treated him sincerely.
For Feng Beibei, the child was the fruit of their love. Even if she left Ran Yuanzhou, she would never harm the child; it was a life.
She didn't agree to Ran Yuanzhou's request, nor did she accept the check; she simply left him.
Ran Yuanzhou was displeased. He thought about it and felt something was wrong. What if this woman gave birth to the child behind his back?
Using the child to blackmail him, demand the Ran family's assets, or even make him take responsibility would be completely pointless.
So he lied and said that the two of them had reconciled, and Feng Beibei happily came to keep the appointment wearing the white dress that they had first met.
