their respective positions. From Old Mrs. Wu’s room came two coughs: “Girl, it’s so late and you’re making so much noise, quiet that thing down.”"Yes..." I walked towards the kitchen. How many bowls...That strand of silk was stuck to Mu Wanchen's finger, one end nowhere in sight, but the silk floated and swayed, guiding us.
Professor Ou didn't go home right away. He first went to the supermarket to buy a bunch of household supplies and food, then went to the gym.
“We really got the short end of the stick following him. We've been walking for ages and are starving... Let's find somewhere to eat,” I asked Mu Wanchen.
He lowered his head and looked at me: "Are you hungry"
"It's past seven o'clock already, of course I'm hungry... If my stomach gets too grumbly, even the Female Gu might get upset." I mumbled.
He chuckled lightly: "Saying things like this now, you seem to have lost that initial anger."
"Isn't that right! I'm used to it…… Spiders, snakes, these things crawling all over me, I'm not afraid anymore." I looked around and said to Mu Wanchen, "Let's go to that store, you haven't taken me out for a meal yet, how about we have dinner together"
"Sure," he replied without hesitation.
Originally, I planned to continue "tracking" after dinner and go to Mr. Ou's house, but I underestimated my self-control.
The shop I found was a self-service Chinese hot pot restaurant. Watching Mu Wanchen pick up dishes and put them down, I felt like he was acting like a doting house husband. I couldn't help but keep giving him orders, just wanting to see the slight furrow in his brow as he worked.
"You, you go get me another spoonful of ice cream." I pushed the small glass bowl toward him.
"Still eating" He frowned at me, "Women should eat less cold and damp things."
"Wow, you're taking me out to eat for the first time and you won't let me enjoy myself. In the future, how dare I go out with you again"
"I'll deal with you later." He looked at me.
I stuck out my tongue. With so many people around this week, and some even sneaking glances at him, I doubt he'd dare "deal with" me here, right
He just grabbed a small glass bowl and got up to help me get ice cream, when two young women at the next table started whispering: "Such a handsome man, it's so satisfying to command him!"
"Don't be silly, she already has someone. Stop obsessing over her."
"It's so enviable, he's so handsome and has such a good figure..."
Hehehe, I grinned triumphantly, biting down on my ice cream spoon.
"So tall and handsome, he must be very capable..."
Pffff... I almost chipped a tooth.
Am I being too conservative How come most girls nowadays are so tough
After I finished the third scoop of ice cream, under Mu Wanchen's stern gaze, I paid and left.
We only realized we were tailing Teacher Ou as we walked out of the store, but her car was already gone.
"emmmm... how about we head home" I looked up at Mu Wanchen.
He said with a mix of anger and amusement, "Little Yin Lu, after you've eaten your fill and patted your little tummy, you just throw down your tools and stop doing your duty"
"No need to rush right now, go home and warm up in your bed~," I said with a smile.
He wouldn't take this joke seriously, he just looked at me with his eyes downcast, a hint of pity in them.
It made me feel like this is what being in love is like.
My phone rang out of place. What idiot is being so inconsiderate at this time—
My phone rang with an unfamiliar number, persistently ringing as if it wouldn't stop until I answered, no matter how long.
Just now the atmosphere was so good, this should be put in an idol drama, the next scene would be a kiss, right
I was actually broken by this phone call.
"Hey!" I barked, my voice laced with irritation.
If these were loan sharks preying on students or women, I'd be ready to give them a piece of my mind.
" …Yin Luo, your tone… Am I interrupting something"
I almost dropped my phone, it was Teacher Ou! I was just about to give up on tracking him down when he called.
Hearing his voice, I felt a little guilty and quickly whispered, "Hello, Teacher. I thought it was a telemarketing call, so I was a bit rude."
"I'm not here to chat," Lao Ou said coldly, "It's just that something's wrong at home. Perhaps I need you to take a look."
"No way!! Teacher, you're a scientist, how can you believe something like this old tradition What if I can't even explain why..."
"Are you coming or not Enough with the chatter!" he said, his voice getting a bit sharp.
I looked at the time, it wasn't even nine yet. Going home to sleep at this hour seemed a bit early. It's rare for Mu Wanchen to accompany me out, let's find something to do.
"Okay, give me your location..."
Just now I was saying I'd follow him home, and now here I am, standing right at his front door and ringing the bell.
The world is ever-changing.
Mr. Ou's home is definitely that of a hidden rich person. He drives luxury cars and lives in a villa, but he doesn't look like a nouveau riche type. The whole house looks antique and old-fashioned, with a fully Chinese style decoration.
He quickly opened the door, his voice a little hurried. "Starting yesterday, something's been off with my family. I thought it was just an argument and everyone letting off steam. When I left this morning, I didn't notice anything unusual either, but when I got back just now, the house was in complete disarray! And—"
Before I could finish my sentence, a tremendous crash of breaking glass echoed through the house, startling me.
He looked grave, reaching out to twist open the latch on the gate. He spoke in a low voice, “Ever since I met that strange woman, I've felt something off about my surroundings. If it's really some kind of traditional mystical force at play, I want you to take a look and confirm it. If this goes on any longer, I'm going to have to call the police.”
What, what
I was totally dumbfounded. The moment I pushed open the front door, a vase suddenly flew towards me!
Mu Wanchen reached out and pulled me into his embrace. The vase shattered against the doorframe, showering us with porcelain shards. Teacher Ou's face was livid as he shouted from inside, "If you don't stop, I'm calling the police!"
I lifted my head from Mu Wanchen's arms and saw the Chinese-style mansion before me had become like a junkyard.
The crashing sound just now should be the breakage of the fish tank in the middle of the living room.
The ground was covered in shards of glass, and fish were struggling on the floor, but there was no one to be seen in the room.
"Don't come in! Don't let them in! How could these demons get into our house! Haichen, quickly drive them away! Oh—these ghostly howls are coming from where" A woman's sharp voice echoed through the house.
I turned my head to the sound. A woman with delicate makeup, wavy short hair, and a startled expression emerged from behind the sofa.
Well, wearing a silk suspender nightgown in such cold weather, this life is really interesting.
Have I discovered something amazing
"That... Mr. Ou, your girlfriend has a really great figure." I grinned awkwardly.
Mr. Ou glared at me: "This is my mother!"
Poof…
I almost choked on my words, awkwardly blurted out, "Your mother is so young, no wonder you are so handsome, good genes."
“Cut to the chase, she's been rambling about ghosts and goblins all day. No matter how much I tried to reason with her, she wouldn't listen! She even claimed something had entered her home! It's like she's possessed. You've treated many cases of hysteria before, so I wanted to ask you to take a look at what's going on!” Teacher Ou sounded exasperated.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!ake charge. If you have something, tell me, your eldest grandson. Don't just look at me – I'm young and handsome, but I understand the ways of the world and can handle things."I couldn't help but thin...
