Chapter 81: Chapter 56 [Pah, Little Jerk]

Chapter Fifty-Six [Pah, Little Scumbag]

Chen Yan asked suspiciously, "Is it... still the same house?"

"Yes," Boss Fang responded with certainty.

Chen Yan fell silent.

Is he targeting Luo Qing again?

Wasn’t it just yesterday that he said they’d reconciled, pleaded for mercy, and even paid some money?

How did it change overnight? Could it be that Boss Fang just found out Luo Qing had cheated him?

"Can I ask what happened?" Chen Yan frowned.

President Fang’s voice was muffled: "He screwed me over. Everything I told you about yesterday, he denied it all today."

What kind of move is this?

Chen Yan was also puzzled.

He thought for a moment: "I need to think about it. I’ll get back to you later."

After saying that, Chen Yan hung up the phone and walked along the roadside, pondering.

To mess with Luo Qing again, this kind of thing doesn’t really bother Chen Yan.

After all, that guy is a scoundrel who doesn’t know how many deceitful and harmful things he’s done— just based on that spiked sandalwood incense, such a skillful trick, he’s definitely conned many people!

However, Chen Yan needed to think a bit more about how to proceed.

Targeting Luoyun House’s shop again... doesn’t seem to be meaningful.

The business of Luoyun House... its name and reputation are already ruined, targeting the shop again actually wouldn’t hurt Luo Qing much.

As he wandered and thought, Chen Yan decided to go to Luoyun House again to scout around.

Who knows, he might come up with something.

When he picked up his phone to call for a car, he saw a message pop up on WeiXin.

Upon seeing it, it was from Lu Sisi?

Hmm, this bunny-like girl hasn’t contacted him the past few days.

Lu Sisi sent a photo, a selfie.

From the photo, it seemed the girl was playing on a pirate ship ride at an amusement park. Her smile in the photo was like a blooming flower, even her eyes were filled with joyous vitality.

Chen Yan’s expression involuntarily softened, and he sent a message: "You went to play on the pirate ship?"

Lu Sisi replied instantly: "Yes, I mustered up the courage and finally went on it, it was scary but also quite fun."

Chen Yan laughed and sent: "Did you play anything else?"

Lu Sisi replied with a few more selfies.

On bumper cars, in the Ferris wheel, and some rafting project...

These are the things Lu Sisi would never have dared to try since she was a child.

Alright, this girl is experiencing a vengeful playdate after being oppressed by bad luck till she was eighteen.

"Did you try bungee jumping?"

"No, there’s no bungee jump project at the amusement park here in Jinling Prefecture.", Lu Sisi replied honestly.

Thinking about the day they parted, when the girl suddenly rushed over and hugged his waist, and the kiss on his cheek.

Chen Yan, almost on a whim, sent: "Where are you now?"

"Watching a movie," Lu Sisi quickly replied.

Then, the girl seemed to fear he might misunderstand and quickly added: "I’m watching alone."

Chen Yan smiled, not pointing out Lu Sisi’s little mind, and sent: "What do you plan to do after the movie?"

Lu Sisi didn’t reply immediately this time. After a while, WeiXin kept showing "the other party is typing...".

After a long time, she finally sent a few short words: "Can I come see you after the movie?"

Chen Yan’s eyes softened, he took a deep breath, and sent: "When does your movie end?"

Lu Sisi instantly replied: "It just finished now!"

Chen Yan arranged to meet Lu Sisi near the grand temple gate at Qixia Mountain.

Anyway, he planned to check around Luoyun House later, and today he wasn’t intending to act on anything drastic, so without much burden or pressure, it was just perfect to stroll with Lu Sisi.

Regarding Chen Yan’s decision to meet at the temple gate, Lu Sisi didn’t show any disagreement—perhaps in the girl’s eyes, someone like Chen Yan who knows spells appearing in a temple might seem normal?

In the afternoon, the major temple was still bustling with many worshippers and devotees.

After meeting up, Chen Yan led the girl inside the temple together.

As they entered, Lu Sisi quickly ran to the incense counter, scanned twenty yuan, exchanged it for twenty coins, and handed them all to Chen Yan.

Chen Yan, inexperienced, didn’t understand at first, but after entering the temple, he bowed to Buddha all the way, from the main hall to the ancestral hall, from Buddha to all kinds of Bodhisattvas...

As Chen Yan knelt and bowed, Lu Sisi smiled brightly while stuffing coins into the merit boxes.

Actually, Chen Yan didn’t originally believe in these things, but with his recent experiences, having started his own cultivation, he maintained some respect for these things—there are no gods or Buddhas in this world.

But perhaps the Domain Realm has some?

After the round of worship, Chen Yan looked curiously at Lu Sisi: "Why didn’t you worship? Don’t you believe in this?"

Lu Sisi stood close to Chen Yan, slightly leaning against him, and whispered: "I used to worship Buddha often, praying for protection to end my bad luck...

I’ve worshipped countless times since I was little, but it never worked, so I stopped believing in it later."

Chen Yan gave the girl a deep look, then reached out and ruffled her hair, messing it up on purpose, smiling: "You don’t have to worry about these things anymore! Come on, I’ll take you to eat stinky tofu."

Seeing Chen Yan smile and walk ahead, Lu Sisi gently smoothed her hair that Chen Yan had messed up.

Her eyes, gazing at Chen Yan’s back, seemed to sparkle.

I no longer believe in gods or Buddhas...

Because in my heart, all the gods in the sky can’t compare to you...

Leaving the grand temple, the young couple wandered to the nearby commercial block where Luoyun House is located.

Chen Yan and Lu Sisi walked side by side, eating all the way: fried stinky tofu, crispy roasted sausages, stir-fried yogurt...

Though they knew these things might not be clean or nutritious, what mattered was the lively atmosphere.

Lu Sisi, with her extremely gentle nature, would always sweetly smile and obediently say "Sure" no matter what Chen Yan said or did.

They clearly bought too much food and couldn’t finish it all, but whenever they encountered new food, Chen Yan would still turn to Lu Sisi and ask: Shall we try this?

And Lu Sisi would always gently nod, her smile radiant: "Sure."

Even when Chen Yan, acting childishly, picked up a cheap plastic golden cudgel at a toy stall and waved it around—such a childish act, Lu Sisi watching Chen Yan still showed no less affection in her eyes.

Unknowingly, the two reached a street corner. By the roadside was a shop called [Guangsheng Number],

Chen Yan had been here a few days ago; he had bought the talisman paper, cinnabar, and brush and ink used to draw talismans to trap mice and prank Luo Qing.

This shop, a competitor to Luoyun House on the commercial street, seemed quite large, selling various runes, cinnabar, warding talismans, and even offering services like fortune-telling and Feng Shui.

Given Chen Yan’s prolonged cultivation, passing by such a shop felt like encountering his professional field, so he habitually took Lu Sisi inside for a look.

Upon stepping past the shop’s threshold, he saw a curtain at the back of the shop lift, and a woman slowly walked out.

Chen Yan glanced casually and was momentarily stunned.

The first thought that crossed his mind was...

What a stunning beauty, and she wears glasses... Holy, New World, team leader...

A small, palm-sized face with a sharp chin, the glasses perched on her nose not only failed to obscure her beauty but inexplicably added a touch of allure.

Such a woman, any man seeing her at first glance would feel amazed.

Some people naturally carry a special kind of charm with their looks and figure.

In the past, it was called sexy; now it’s known as inherently seductive.

Lu Sisi, with a girl’s unique sensitivity, caught Chen Yan’s gaze and followed it over, feeling a bit panicked.

It was purely because Lu Sisi, a petite girl who could see her own toes, saw a woman who couldn’t see her toes, inducing a natural wariness as if encountering a natural enemy.

Chen Yan only glanced twice before retracting his gaze.

This was his principle in life.

The first look is a male instinct. The second look confirms the correctness of that instinct.

Not looking a third time is self-restraint.

Chen Yan smiled and patted the slightly complicated-eyed Lu Sisi, pulling her to leave but then heard a voice from behind the alluring mature woman.

"Elder Zi, wait."

From behind the curtain, a middle-aged man in a mandarin jacket followed out.

Upon hearing the term "Elder Zi," Chen Yan was thoughtful!

He thus paused, holding Lu Sisi’s hand, pretending to browse the unity locks and blessing charms displayed on the counter.

"Elder Zi, the talisman paper you brought is indeed from my shop. But as you know, this street sees heavy traffic. My business, though not as good as Luoyun House, has always been decent. Due to high turnover, it’s impossible to trace the source for the buyer."

Chen Yan heard this and felt intrigued—Luoyun House!

The alluring mature woman listened and faintly smiled, nodding: "Understood, I was just casually asking, thank you, Boss Zhou."

"Take care, Elder Zi, and please continue to patronize my business in the future."

While the shop owner spoke politely, his actions were indifferent; greeting her, he didn’t wait for her to leave and directly turned back inside.

The alluring mature woman seemingly didn’t mind and slightly smiled—competitors are enemies, especially on the same street; her strong ties with Luoyun House probably explain the coldness towards her.

Standing outside the shop, she looked at the crowded street and sighed softly.

Her intention wasn’t really to find the other side for revenge.

It was because the rune left behind was something she hadn’t learned. This rune aroused the skillful woman’s interest, leading her to inquire casually.

Since she found nothing... it was fine.

Just when she was about to leave, in her peripheral vision, she noticed a young couple standing by a counter inside the shop.

The boy was slender and handsome. The girl had a face full of affection, gazing at the boy with what seemed like light in her eyes.

Noticing the girl’s stance, she subtly leaned against the boy...

The boy seemed deeply interested in the items in the counter. The girl’s whole heart, however, was fixated on the boy, her eyes filled with attachment as she stared at his side profile.

Observing this scene, the woman couldn’t help but sigh lightly.

Being young... is wonderful.

Years ago, she too was like this girl, having her whole world filled with that one person...

·

Despite her age, the woman felt a touch of sentiment, leading her to linger and watch.

Focusing on the boy, she silently activated her spiritual light and used the Qi Observation Skill to take a closer look.

Once she did, the alluring mature woman’s face immediately turned stern.

The girl had such deeply affectionate eyes, yet the boy’s fate showed an abundance of recent romantic dalliances...

Pah, so he’s a little scumbag!

The initial thought of bestowing some fortune evaporated instantly.

Shaking her head, the woman walked away.

Chen Yan, once the woman left, slightly frowned.

Just now... his primordial qi responded; was this Elder Zi woman using the Qi Observation Skill to check me?
