"Things that won't listen to reason."
The little glutinous rice ball-like pink and white face gradually turned serious, and a cold glint flashed in her beautiful eyes. Lin Wanyue put away the magic weapon she had just taken out and instead took out a purple talisman.
"Oh my!" Laifu, who had been laughing and joking along the side, immediately said as soon as he saw the paper being taken out, "We're leaving now, goodbye!"
After saying that, he grabbed Hu Jiuyuan, who was still confused about what was going on, and broke through the roof at top speed, fleeing quickly towards the Lin family's location.
"It's not you... Hey hey hey, what's going on?" Hu Jiuyuan was full of questions. He tried to shake off Laifu's hand, but was instead grabbed by the collar.
Laifu felt he had never run away so fast since becoming a ghost. As he ran, he had to explain to Hu Jiuyuan, who was struggling desperately beside him, "Idiot! Don't ask so many questions, just run! We ghosts have lives too!"
Hu Jiuyuan: "?"
He was prepared to run away, but the female ghosts clinging tightly to the little boy inside the house had no intention of escaping at all.
Their laughter, which was already almost deafening, nearly shook the walls of the house when they saw the talisman Lin Wanyue took out.
"She's just a little girl, what does she think she is?"
"You dare to scare me with a piece of scrap paper? Do you think you're some rich young lady?"
Hahahaha!
Qi Sichen couldn't hear their laughter, but he could vaguely feel an uncomfortable cold wind.
Unrepentant!
Lin Wanyue silently recited the incantation in her mind and no longer held back. She pinched the talisman between her two small fingers and silently chanted the spell to make it work.
A light, invisible to ordinary people, emanated from the talisman as if it had been suddenly illuminated, surging out in all directions like a tidal wave.
Swish—
The bodies of those female ghosts were instantly shattered by the light waves.
Their sharp, mocking laughter came to an abrupt halt at that moment.
The silks and satins that faintly shimmered with dark patterns on their bodies, and the gold, silver, and jeweled ornaments on their heads, were all shattered and completely destroyed in the impact.
Qi Sichen glanced down and noticed that his long hair, which hung down in front of his chest, had stopped trembling slightly, and the uncomfortable cold wind seemed to have disappeared as well.
He quickly turned to look at the little boy lying on the bed and found that the child was sleeping peacefully under the covers, no longer in pain.
Qi Sichen reached out to touch his forehead. Although he still had a slight fever, his breathing was steady, and he seemed to have recovered by half.
Lin Wanyue felt a little regretful that she had wasted a purple talisman on these useless female ghosts. If she had known that they couldn't even put up a fight and were even more useless than Lai Fu, she would have just wasted her energy and cut them down with her peach wood sword!
"Phew!" Lin Wanyue blew a breath in annoyance, making some stray hairs on her forehead fly upwards.
“He’s mostly recovered and should wake up tonight.” Lin Wanyue, always kind to beautiful women, offered, “Tell them to prepare some food for you tonight. He’s so thin, he’ll definitely be hungry when he wakes up.”
"Okay." Qi Sichen nodded. Seeing that Qi Yuan was not as upset as before, his trust in Lin Wanyue had increased from two or three points to eight or nine points.
He stood up, took a piece of paper with his birth date and time written on it from a drawer, and handed it to Lin Wanyue: "Can you tell his fortune?"
"What do you want to know?" Lin Wanyue took the fortune-telling booklet, glanced at it briefly, and found that this person's fate was definitely one of wealth and nobility!
It's just a pity that he was born a little late, at midnight.
In the Eight Characters system, the hour of Zi (11 PM - 1 AM) is considered a Yin hour. Regardless of one's character, from a purely qualitative perspective, such individuals tend to be more delicate, sensitive, and thoughtful.
Qi Sichen pondered for a moment before saying, "How long will his lifespan be? When will his health improve?"
"..." Lin Wanyue puffed out her cheeks without making a sound.
She has been telling fortunes for people in front of her shop every day for several months now. People who come to her for fortune telling, besides asking about their future and financial prospects, basically ask about their marriage.
Aside from parents who want their children to be safe and healthy, other people only care about these three things.
So this person must be Lin Weiming, the young man!
Lin Wanyue carefully examined the birth chart sticker, then turned to look at the face of the young man lying on the bed who hadn't woken up yet, comparing their faces.
"If you can't read, I'll read it to you, Qi Yuan..." Qi Sichen's pleasant voice rang out.
"Who do you think you are?" Lin Wanyue turned her head away unhappily: "I can read! I know every single one of these characters!"
Although this older brother is very handsome and good-looking, he actually looks down on me!
"Oh, really?" Qi Sichen raised his beautiful eyebrows slightly, a smile playing on his lips.
Perhaps because Qi Yuan's flushed face, which was lying on the bed, was gradually recovering from his fever and his condition was clearly improving, he felt relieved. Looking at Lin Wanyue's slightly puffed-up face, he actually wanted to laugh.
This person doesn't even believe in himself!
Lin Wanyue stared in disbelief, feeling even more furious.
"He was born at an inauspicious hour and has a naturally wealthy destiny, so he's prone to attracting ghosts. The fact that he's still alive is truly remarkable; most people would probably die after being haunted by so many ghosts for several years..."
Lin Wanyue didn't say the words that she should have died long ago, but although she didn't finish her sentence, her meaning was very clear.
Qi Sichen was pleased and not angry at such a young girl. Instead, he nodded and said, "That's right, this child has indeed been weak and sickly since birth. She was like this when she was born, and we have invited many doctors, but they could only barely keep her alive and did not see much effect."
Lin Wanyue slightly raised her eyelids, thinking that he said this because he didn't quite understand how dangerous this young man was.
Having been haunted by more than twenty female ghosts for so many years, and still managing to survive with barely any hope, those doctors must have put in a tremendous amount of effort.
However, what Lin Wanyue couldn't understand was that although this young man's birth date and time were somewhat problematic, he generally wouldn't attract so many ghosts, let alone so many female ghosts.
Lin Wanyue told Qi Sichen about her problem.
She touched her chin and glanced at Qi Sichen's overly handsome face. Suddenly, a brilliant idea flashed in her little mind.
"..." Qi Sichen was also clueless about this. Seeing her like this, he couldn't help but ask her curiously, "Have you thought of something?"
Lin Wanyue didn't intend to hide it, so she told her directly.
"I think it's all because you're too good-looking! All those female ghosts want to be his stepmother, that's why they keep bothering him. Otherwise, why would so many female ghosts who look rich insist on following him?"
