t easy to mess with, I'm a bit afraid of dealing with them."Hee hee hee hee." She laughed, swaying her body as she took two steps: "Don't rush to refuse... The world is round, going round and round, y...I really want to take the elevator, anyway I'm not afraid of ghosts now.
But after thinking about it, I still have to be more respectful.
After all, it's still a mortal body of yin and yang two qi, dare not die.
My brother saw me slowly climbing the stairs and laughed, "You're tired from being so busy every night, aren't you Can't even climb properly Want me to carry you"
I glared at him: "How can a woman's stamina compare to a man's You work out so much every day, and I haven't exercised nearly as much. Of course, I'm much less physically fit..."
"Making love is also a way to exercise your lung capacity, you've been exercising quite a bit." He smirked and reached out to pull me up.
I panted, peppering him with questions: “ ... I really don't understand how you can stand it. Every night I stare at Jiang Qiyun and still feel like it's not enough. How can you stand only seeing Lin Yanqin every few days Don't you miss her”
My brother shrugged. "I'm not as clingy as you, besides, being a little cold towards her is good for her."
"Huh What benefits"
"To keep her from running out and upsetting her mother, I need to be cold toward her. That way, she'll naturally become more sensible. If I lose my head, her innocent nature will surely follow suit." My brother answered calmly.
"... I always thought you were a troublemaker."
"That's for outsiders. When have I ever wished for chaos among my own people I know you worry about me, but rest assured, I know what I'm doing." He smiled and ruffled my hair.
I feel that he has matured a lot this year. Not only is he becoming more like a homeowner, but his thoughts are also becoming more meticulous.
I'm exhausted after climbing to the 16th floor. My brother called Archie, but it rang and rang without anyone answering.
"What are we doing... I forgot the house number," my brother frowned and said.
I looked around. There were six houses in a row, and the gate of the innermost house had a very small mountain-sea town hanging above it.
"Is that the one Not many commercial properties these days have a mountain and sea view...It must be Archie's place."
My brother went up and knocked on the door, pressing his ear against it and listening: “ ... Seems pretty noisy in there. What's going on Why aren't you opening the door Even before dark that plump little temptress has arrived”
I placed my hand on the doorknob and didn't feel any oppressive ghostly energy. Suddenly, there was a loud "BANG!" from behind the door, which startled us back several steps.
The phone by the door rang, and Archie asked in alarm, “….Who”
"What are you up to! Open the door or I'm leaving!"
"Wait, wait... I'll open the door for you..."
Chains rattled behind the door, and Archie carefully opened the security window to peek out. He immediately let us in.
"What the heck! You're scaring yourself in broad daylight!" My brother asked, annoyed.
He hurriedly slammed the door shut, with the charms we gave him still stuck to it. He checked them carefully and seemed a little calmer: “My, my youngest daughter seems to be ill. I'm so busy running around, I wanted to take her to the hospital but was afraid to open the door... Master, please help me! I'm almost driven mad by that female ghost!”
She definitely came last night! I was creeped out all night, watching over my two daughters and couldn't sleep! Maybe she stuck talismans on the door and didn't dare break in... This morning, I saw about a suicide jump in our community WeChat group... The woman who jumped lived downstairs from me!
He panicked and complained to my brother.
I stood to the side and took in his home. The decor was quite luxurious, with girls' toys scattered everywhere. In the kitchen, there were piles of takeout containers. He said he only dared to order takeout for the entire day at noon every day, even firing his nanny.
Archie has two daughters. The elder one is in elementary school, while the younger one is five years old and still in kindergarten.
At this time, his youngest daughter had a fever, a raging one that made her babble incoherently. It was heartbreaking to hear.
"Your daughter is sick, don't you take her to the hospital" My brother frowned.
"I dare not... I'm taking two kids out, afraid that female ghost will notice me..." he said nervously.
I let out a sigh and said, "What terrible thing did you do to be so afraid Just tell me the truth."
“Xiao Qiao, there's no need to ask further. This fellow earns money by exploiting the dead and drains wealth from both worlds. He must have a heavy karmic burden… Ah Qi, if it weren't for your two children, we wouldn't bother with you!”
Achoo crouched down, clutching his head and staring at his bloodshot eyes with frustration. He rubbed his head remorsefully and muttered, "The Patriarch is right, I've definitely lost a lot of good fortune doing this line of work..."
"Surely not!" my brother snarled coldly.
"Yes, or no... Actually, my divorce from my wife was to protect assets. I was worried about retribution, and the children losing their support, so I transferred most of the property into her name. If anything happened to me, bankruptcy or whatever, she would have enough money to raise the kids... We actually still get together sometimes, cough..." Archie said dejectedly.
"I was with the young girl at the company, with a bit of a lucky mindset. I thought that because I was single and no one cared... I just played around, she might have taken it seriously."
I never intended to marry her. I even tried to find an excuse to break things off. She sensed it and would often threaten me, saying she'd expose the company's finances and industry secrets. To get her to stop harassing me, I hired someone...to drug her and take those kind of photos, threatening her with them. When she pressured me into marriage again, I told her the company had received these photos. How would she explain it…
She didn't know that this was my arrangement, and she didn't dare to bring up the topic of getting married again...That's all I did, Madam. This time, I really told you everything without holding back..."
My brother snorted. Ordinary people's debts are nothing more than money debts and love debts. This guy, Archie, doesn't look like much, but he has both kinds of debts covered.
I looked at his little daughter lying on the sofa, feverish and convulsing. I said with concern, "Hurry up and take the child to the hospital. A high fever that doesn't go down is very dangerous."
Achi was terrified. He didn't dare to go out, but he was also worried that his youngest daughter would burn down the house.
I said, "…Look, brother, you take both kids to the hospital now. Have Archie notify the children's mother to come to the hospital and look after them."
My brother paused for a moment: "What about you"
I'm waiting here for that female ghost. Let's settle this and be done with it, so as not to let things get complicated overnight.
"Alright." My brother gave me a worried look. "Be careful."
As twilight descended, Archie whispered to me, "Miss, are you hungry Shall I order some takeout"
"Well, let's summon it then." I pulled a talisman out of my satchel.
I opened the door and placed the talisman under the doormat, just as I turned to close it, the elevator behind me made a soft "ding" sound.
The elevator doors opened, but no one stepped out. Only a cold wind carrying a chill and sullen, resentful aura blew in.
Archie jerked, as if struck dumb, and pointed a trembling finger down the corridor outside. "What... what's that monster..."y is full of rumors; if you like to hear them, I'll chat with you alone later Gossiping can also be a way of cultivating oneself, it refines the mind and prevents envy, jealousy and hatred, which are...
