As Qiao Ruoxi walked to the gate of the courtyard, she saw the man looking up, hands on hips, and cursing "national quintessence" towards the sky.
She also looked up and saw the corners of a red skirt fluttering at the edge of the rooftop. She vaguely felt that the spiritual power around her was fluctuating unusually, and she was somewhat familiar with this spiritual power.
"What happened?" Qiao Ruoxi asked.
When the man saw a little girl named Qiao Ruoxi coming over, he didn't show any suspicion and just pointed at the top floor and started cursing.
"I've had enough of this kind of neighbor. It's a misfortune for the family to have a daughter like this. She quarrels with her parents all day long over a man, disturbing the peace of the entire building."
"If you say she wants to commit suicide, then so be it. Can't she jump somewhere else? And she was wearing a red dress. I don't plan to live here for long. If she falls to her death in my garden, how can I sell the house in the future?"
Qiao Ruoxi shielded the sun with one hand and looked at the rooftop, while counting with her fingers on the other hand, and gradually narrowed her eyes.
"That family's surname is Tong, and the girl's name is Tong Xiaomei, right?" Qiao Ruoxi asked the man.
The man was startled and looked Qiao Ruoxi up and down: "How do you know? Who are you?"
Qiao Ruoxi didn't expect that Tong Xiaomei also lived in this community, and she happened to see her about to jump off the building. Perhaps this was also a kind of fate.
Qiao Ruoxi took out her student ID: "I'm a student at Beijing University of the Arts. Tong Xiaomei is my classmate. I came here specifically to see her. Could you please help me open the door? I want to go and persuade her."
The man took Qiao Ruoxi's student ID and took a look at it. He completely lost his guard against Qiao Ruoxi, opened the backyard security door, and let Qiao Ruoxi in.
As he led Qiao Ruoxi through his living room, he repeatedly told her, "Let me warn you, don't touch anything. You won't be able to pay for anything if you break it."
Qiao Ruoxi looked around and saw that the house was decorated in an extremely luxurious way. Pei Yao was so itchy that he wanted to destroy it several times, but was stopped by Qiao Ruoxi with a look.
"This is the most luxurious decoration I have ever seen. Uncle, are you very rich?" Qiao Ruoxi put what she learned in the acting class into practice and smiled innocently.
The man was in high spirits after hearing this. "Of course. The furniture is all top quality. And that painting, you see? It's worth 50 million. Have you ever seen so much money in your life?"
Pei Yaori cried out in pain and rushed towards the painting: "I took a picture of that on the black market!"
This time Qiao Ruoxi was too late to stop it, and saw the painting fall from the wall with a "bang", and the glass shattered all over the floor.
The man's eyes widened. "There wasn't any wind just now, how did it fall?" He waved his hand again and said, "Actually, I've been unhappy with that painting for a long time. If it weren't worth 50 million, I would have thrown it away. I'll come and clean it up later."
As he said this, he continued to lead Qiao Ruoxi out.
After sending Qiao Ruoxi to the elevator, the man frowned and said, "Little girl, the world is in chaos these days, and people's hearts are complicated. If you said something that provoked her and caused her to jump, her parents would definitely put the blame on you and blackmail you for the rest of your life. In short, I advise you to stay out of it."
Qiao Ruoxi smiled and said, "Uncle, you are so kind. Thank you for your reminder. However, Tong Xiaomei is my classmate. I can't watch her die at such a young age. Everyone should have the right to choose their life a second time."
The man was slightly startled, then scratched his head and waved his hand: "Alright, whatever you want, I won't care anyway."
As soon as he entered the elevator, Pei Yaori started to speak in a sarcastic tone: "Uncle, you are so nice. He is so nice. How could he cheat on me like that?"
Qiao Ruoxi also suppressed her smile and said calmly, "Do you know what's the fastest way to get closer to someone?"
Pei Yaori: "Give money?"
Qiao Ruoxi shook her head: "It's a compliment that comes with a sense of recognition."
"Just praise me if you want, why do you have to agree with me?" Pei Yaori looked puzzled.
"For example, if I compliment you on your great figure, would you be happy?" Qiao Ruoxi asked.
Pei Yaori said "Pooh": "I reasonably suspect that you are mocking me."
"What if I compliment you on being handsome and rich?" Qiao Ruoxi asked again.
Pei Yaori touched his hair and said, "That's definitely a good compliment!"
Qiao Ruoxi curled her lips and said, "Think about it yourself."
As soon as he finished speaking, the elevator made a "ding" sound and reached the top floor.
Qiao Ruoxi pushed open the door of the safe passage leading to the rooftop. Before she reached the rooftop, she heard the heart-wrenching cries of a couple.
"Xiaomei, don't scare mom and dad. Come down quickly, okay? I'll agree to anything you say. We'll sell the house tomorrow and give you all the money, okay?"
"Xiaomei, Dad agrees that you should marry him. Doesn't he want to debut as a star? Dad has a friend who runs an agency. Dad can introduce them to each other and help him become a big star, okay?"
Tong Xiaomei's red dress fluttered in the wind, and her smile was sad.
"Dad, Mom, why didn't you say these things earlier? It's too late now! Shuyang no longer loves me because I didn't help him. He fell in love with someone else, and that girl is even pregnant with his child. There's no chance anymore. Everything is too late. There's no point in me living anymore!"
His heels were originally touching the edge of the rooftop, but he took a step back after saying this, causing the couple to scream again: "No!"
Qiao Ruoxi stepped onto the rooftop and saw the inferiority complex ghost lying on Tong Xiaomei's shoulder, repeating in her ear over and over again: "Jump down quickly, jump down and you can stay with him forever!"
"Even if you jump, you won't be able to stay with Gao Shuyang. You are a ghost and he is a human. You will only be separated by Yin and Yang. You will watch him with other girls every day but be powerless to do anything. Is this what you want?" Qiao Ruoxi spoke suddenly, attracting everyone's attention.
Even the self-deprecating ghost shrank back, hiding most of his body behind Tong Xiaomei, and looking at Qiao Ruoxi warily.
Without the voice of the inferiority complex ghost in her ears, Tong Xiaomei also sobered up for a moment and looked at Qiao Ruoxi in surprise: "Qiao Ruoxi, why are you here? Why is it you!"
"She said she was your classmate, so I brought her up here. Little girl, few men are good. It's not worth committing suicide for a man."
"Why is this bastard here too?" Pei Yaori pointed at the entrance to the rooftop.
Qiao Ruoxi was also a little surprised, but before she could think too much about it, Tong Xiaomei started making a fuss again.
When the couple saw Tong Xiaomei come back to her senses, they were about to take a step forward to pull their daughter back, but Tong Xiaomei suddenly became extremely excited and took another half step back, scaring the couple so much that they quickly took several steps back.
Qiao Ruoxi frowned.
The situation is obviously not optimistic. If Tong Xiaomei is completely possessed, she will jump down directly.
