Chapter 31: Chapter 31: There Is a Ghost in Your House

Pang Hu excitedly slapped his thigh, "Master Xiao Qi, are you saying you agreed to this?"

"Yes, I’m going to the Xu family this afternoon. Since Aunt Wang is afraid of offending the Xu family, she doesn’t need to show up, and I won’t mention her."

Yun Qiuce was puzzled, "So, what do you plan to do? Just directly tell them their house is haunted?"

Yun Qi, immersed in her game, paused for a moment when she heard this. Her eyes darted around as she absentmindedly praised, "Good idea, Uncle, you’re so smart."

In the afternoon, just like last time, Yun Qiuce secretly sneaked Yun Qi out while the Old Master was asleep.

Pang Hu called Wang Meixiang, and upon hearing she didn’t have to show up, Wang Meixiang was ecstatic and repeatedly said she wanted to personally visit to thank them.

But Yun Qi ruthlessly refused.

Yun Qiuce still had some sway; even without a prior appointment, the name of the Yun Family’s Fourth Young Master got them in quickly.

Xu Shixiong was not home, but Mo Wanting was, along with the Xu family’s young masters and young ladies.

Unlike the Yun family’s Chinese-style courtyard, the Xu family lived in a Western-style Half Mountain Villa. Through the large living room’s floor-to-ceiling windows, one could see the distant mountains’ mist, hills, and pine forests.

The butler led Yun Qiuce and his party towards the front hall.

Mo Wanting, sipping her coffee, remarked in surprise, "We have no dealings with the Yun family; what brings Yun Qiuce here?"

"The Yun family claims to be the Xuan Sect, but I think they’re just bluffing. Their ancestors were probably deceitful street sorcerers who gave themselves a fancy title after prospering," Xu family’s eldest son Xu Leiyue said.

"Hahaha, perhaps Yun Qiuce is out of pocket money and came here to scam us," a girl’s voice echoed from upstairs.

Xu Xueyan, clad in a sexy tank top and tight shorts, with her long legs crossed, lazily sat on the sofa.

She was the Xu family’s third young lady, pampered since childhood, and had quite a headstrong personality.

"Do you know Yun Qiuce?" the older brother asked.

"He’s my senior, though only in the sense of ’an idle student.’"

As Xu Xueyan’s voice fell silent.

The butler led Yun Qiuce inside, and everyone immediately stopped talking, casting unfriendly looks at Yun Qiuce, Pang Hu, and the fair-skinned young girl beside them.

Yun Qi wore a blue and white striped dress with a matching headband, and she walked like a fluttering butterfly.

Yun Qiuce briefly introduced himself and Pang Hu, then pulled Yun Qi over, looking somewhat solemn, "This is Yun Qi, the fifth-generation heir of our Yun family, my little niece."

The Xu family thought back to their previous discussion about the Yun family and was amused by Yun Qiuce’s wording and tone.

"Fifth generation... heir, hahaha," Xu Xueyan laughed the loudest.

Xu Leiyue snorted coldly and muttered under his breath, "Some really take scams as a family business."

Before Yun Qiuce could react, Mo Wanting quickly put on a dignified and generous demeanor, scolding, "No nonsense."

Then she turned to Yun Qiuce with a smile, speaking kindly, "What brings Young Master Yun suddenly to our house?"

If it were the old Yun Qiuce, he would have turned and left without a second thought. But seeing Yun Qi’s calm demeanor, he could only suppress his anger and grumpily said, "Your house is haunted. We’re here this time to help you with ghost hunting."

"Pfft!" Xu Xueyan spat out a mouthful of coffee, stuck her tongue out at everyone, tilted her head towards Yun Qiuce, and a flash of disdain passed through her eyes, "Senior, do you remember me? We were in the same high school."

Yun Qiuce had no impression of her, but it wasn’t unusual for children of prestigious families to attend the same school, "You’re younger than me, we weren’t in the same grade, I probably hadn’t met you."

"But I’ve heard of you, Young Master Yun’s fame precedes him. I never thought you would come to my home to hunt ghosts. As far as I recall, that wasn’t part of our school curriculum."
