Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Gu Zhi fainted for no reason. When he woke up, he was the only one left in the room. Ming Shu was nowhere in sight.
Gu Zhi: “...”
She left him again after sleeping with him!
What happened just now?
Gu Zhi checked his body. He was still in one piece. Nothing strange appeared on his body.
His body was normal...
He couldn’t have fainted from the kiss, right?
Gu Zhi went downstairs. It was dinner time. He Ren’nian hugged his new fling as he chatted with the others.
When he saw Gu Zhi, he waved at him.
Gu Zhi kept his hands in his pockets and walked over arrogantly. “Did you see Qian Sui?”
“No.” He Ren’nian shook his head. “Isn’t she always with you? Hmm... you two...”
He Ren’nian winked at him.
Any man would know what he meant.
Gu Zhi raised his collar. He didn’t want anyone to see the marks that she left on him.
She gave them to him. How could he show it to other people?
[Lord Nine, do you know what this is?]
What?
[Acting calm when you are not.]
Gu Zhi sneered. Should I display my happiness to you?
[...] Lord Nine, you are impressive. I can’t afford to offend you.
“Gu Zhi, come and have a chat with us!”
“Gu Zhi, I never saw you after you graduated. I heard that you didn’t go back and inherit your family business. What are you doing now?”
Someone waved and called Gu Zhi.
Gu Zhi looked at them arrogantly. He Ren’nian placed his hand on his forehead. This guy was preparing to mock people again.
“Nothing much. I just arrest rich second generations like you who have nothing better to do.”
Everyone: “...”
“Cough, cough. Everyone, don’t bother with him. His desires were not fulfilled,” He Ren’nian said. “What were we talking about...”
“Gu Zhi, do you have a girlfriend now? I saw it in your friend circle,” someone said. “Why didn’t you bring her out to show us?”
There were a lot of people here when Ming Shu and Gu Zhi arrived but Ming Shu came in with Meng Han so they didn’t know her relationship with Gu Zhi.
He Ren’nian: “...”
This little ancestor was looking for his girlfriend. How dare you talk about this now.
Gu Zhi replied, “Why must I show you?”
Those people that wanted to see his wife must have evil intentions toward her.
I will not show her to you all.
Hmph!
His wife belonged to him.
Everyone: “...”
“Don’t talk about it. He is in a bad mood. Are you looking for a scolding? You should know what his temper is like,” He Ren’nian whispered to the person.
“We’re just curious...”
“It is hard to see Gu Zhi so we would definitely be curious to hear that he has a girlfriend.”
“After so many years, his temper is still the same...”
“Sigh, last time, girls like us treated his as our idol. We felt that he was so handsome when he acted all arrogant and proud. Now, I just feel that his face is handsome. Not many people can stand his temper.”
Women who had entered society were harder to fool than the girls in school.
They admitted that he was handsome, but that temper...
Gu Zhi didn’t hear everything but he heard most of it.
He was too lazy to bother with these mortals.
He needed to find his wife.
Gu Zhi turned and saw Meng Han and his family. The stupid little boy even made a stupid face at him.
He felt his anger gushing out.
This stupid little boy...
“Mister Gu.” Yao Ying wore a red dress with a V-neck and walked seductively toward Gu Zhi. She opened her red lips. “Can we talk somewhere else?”
“I’m not free.” I’m looking for my wife.
Yao Ying’s face turned dark when she got rejected, but she regained her composure quickly.
“Mister Gu, don’t you want to know what happened to Qian Sui?”
Gu Zhi looked at Yao Ying.
Yao Ying smiled at her calmly.
Yao Ying saw Gu Zhi pondering and got more confident. “If Mister Gu wants to know, I can tell you everything about Qian Sui...”
However, she was wrong about what Gu Zhi was thinking of.
Gu Zhi was wondering how he could kill this bug when there were so many people here.
...
At the Ghost Face Mountain...
The mountain was not developed yet so old trees shot up into the sky and vines hung everywhere. The sounds from birds and insects echoed in the forest.
Once she went up the mountain, Ming Shu felt the heavy Yin Qi in the air. She could see ghosts floating around the mountain. There were lots of them here.
She walked all the way to the middle of the mountain.
Ming Shu saw a lady sitting on top of a huge rock.
Her figure was vague. She looked like an illusion.
“Huh...” The lady looked over and let out a gasp of surprise.
She sized up Ming Shu. Ming Shu looked at her too.
This lady gave her a different feeling. She was different from the other ghosts. She couldn’t feel how strong the lady was.
A minute later, the lady opened her mouth. “The Qian family? Why are you looking for me?”
“You are Liu Quan?”
“How can you not know who you are looking for?” Liu Quan smiled coldly.
“I want to ask you something.”
“Ask me?” Liu Quan appeared shocked. “What can I tell you?”
“Do you know the Qian family very well?”
Liu Quan’s figure was faint so Ming Shu couldn’t see the expression on her face.
After a while, Liu Quan laughed sweetly. “You should know whether I know about the Qian family.”
“I want to know everything about the Qian family.”
Liu Quan stopped laughing.
“What did you say?”
“I want to know everything about the Qian family.” Ming Shu repeated herself. She added, “I don’t know much about the Qian family.”
“You...”
Ming Shu knew that Liu Quan was looking at her intently.
After a while, Liu Quan sneered. “The Qian family is degrading. Didn’t Qian Li teach you anything?”
Qian Li was the name of the Host’s father.
“He disappeared.”
Liu Quan: “...”
From the start of the conversation, even when she talked about her father disappearing, this girl in front of her was calm and just smiled gently.
Liu Quan couldn’t underestimate her.
“What do you want to know?”
Ming Shu smiled. “I want to know everything.”
Liu Quan kept quiet for a moment. “That is all? You have no other purpose?”
“What other motives do you think I have?”
“You all are bad people,” Liu Quan scolded. Ming Shu didn’t know who she was scolding.
After Liu Quan finished scolding, she started talking about the Qian family.
No one knew when the Qian family appeared.
The Qian family grew stronger and before the ghosts knew it, the Qian family was a huge, powerful family.
Why were they only famous among ghosts?
The Qian family was lowkey among humans. They were not after money or reputation.
A thousand years ago, ghosts were more powerful. No humans could touch them.
There were lots of Taoist masters from different factions who tried to catch ghosts. The competition was strong.
Someone noticed the existence of the Qian family and realized that they did things differently.
The Qian family only serviced those ghosts that had a strong obsession after death.
Of course, they would kill those ghosts that wanted to take over the world and murdered humans.
No matter how powerful a ghost was, they were nothing in front of the Qian family.
Many people were jealous of the Qian family.
Hence, people attacked the Qian family.
However, the art of managing ghosts used by the Qian family was an innate ability.
