very day..."As for who you love and who you're with, I don't mind... A man like you, many women would find normal.She spoke softly, both alluring and vulnerable.Not only did he say it, but he also put...The Hou family has almost become our biggest client. They trust me and my brother deeply, even asking my brother to help them choose a feng shui ornament when they changed their office.

As soon as I stepped into the house, Hou Shaowen immediately presented me with a jewelry gift box and eagerly said, "Miss Xiao Qiao, this time I have something to ask for your help. Please don't refuse... That is, I praised you both so highly in front of my friends that you must live up to my words!"

I frowned. "Never heard of making a quiet fortune You don't need to advertise for our family, just shut your mouth!"

Hou Shaowen looked at me in astonishment and whispered to my brother, “Miss Qiao used to be so delicate. How come she’s become so fierce now!”

My brother gave an awkward smile and didn't dare say it was because of "family discord".

I sat down and took a sip of tea, sighing as I said, "Young Master Hou, what favors do you have for me this time"

"Uh... Little Qiao, don't be angry. I didn't just bring you guys up to brag! It's because I have a relative elder who takes good care of me. His project also ran into some problems, so I recommended you guys." Hou Shaowen spoke to me cautiously.

I know I was losing my temper, after all, this is a business. Every customer who comes to our door is important, especially since he's a major client.

"Well, Young Master Hou, please take your time and speak." I poured him some tea.

He saw my face and tone had softened, and he began to recount in detail: There was a Mr. Zhong who recently developed a project encountered some problems. He didn't know if it was revenge from an enemy, but someone drew a strange array on his construction site. He called a truck to remove it, and then accidents happened one after another at the construction site. He hired several masters to take a look, but they all shook their heads saying they were powerless.

Later, Hou Shaowen introduced him to the Shen family, but Shen Qingrui replied that she was unwell. When Zhong Boss was in a desperate state, an old man surnamed Chen told him that this was a tiger's disaster hurting people and needed one million to resolve it. As a result, after collecting a deposit of 200,000 yuan, the old man actually ran away!

Boss Zhong was furious and called some of his men to kidnap Old Chen at his home. However, both groups of men that went never returned!

He did some digging and found out that this old man Chen was actually from a notorious haunted village. This scared Mr. Zhong, so he wanted to bring in a master to take a look. Hou Shaowen recommended us.

"I think that old geezer Chen is putting on a show to swindle us. What ghost village, what not...There aren't that many ghost villages!" My brother said nonchalantly, with his legs crossed.

I'm not really interested in this. There's nothing fishy about it that would allow my brother, the little con artist, to make a big profit. If it's just about exorcism and ghostbusting, that's not our specialty.

Hou Shaowen was good at reading people's expressions. He smiled and said, "Miss Xiao Qiao, Mr. Zhong said that if you can help him solve his troubles, a million yuan in compensation is definitely not a problem. If you are further interested in helping him with Feng Shui guidance for his projects, he will give you another villa to choose from."

My brother glanced at me, he was a little tempted. We're not interested in living in a villa, but the price is exorbitant, wouldn't one villa sell for millions if it changed hands

“Alright, let's see what we can do to help. If we're out of our depth, we'll know to call in someone more experienced.” I hesitated before saying that.

"That's great! I knew Miss Qiao, you have a kind heart and are very hospitable!" Hou Shaowen immediately took out his phone and said, "To be honest with you, Boss Zhong has already set up a banquet at Haiyanlou waiting for us!"

I felt like I had been played, but since I had agreed to go take a look, I went upstairs to change my clothes and grab my compass.

As I pushed open the door, a ray of sunset fell across the windowsill. Jiang Qiyun was sitting there, his long legs casually bent, fiddling with my little compass in his hand.

Living in the same room while treating each other as if transparent is a high-difficulty behavior. I can endure not talking to him, but I can't completely avoid eye contact.

I walked over and pulled the compass from his hand. He glared at me as I packed my bag.

"Where are you going" he asked.

I ignored him, pulled open the wardrobe and started changing. A tracksuit would be more convenient for a getaway, right

"Mu Xiao Qiao." His voice began to carry a hint of impatience. He reached out and grabbed my arm, pulling me before him. "It's fine if you give me the cold shoulder, but you have to explain your whereabouts."

I chuckled and said, “Relax, I’m not going to a gynecology hospital. I'm just waiting for you guys to help me with an abortion. Why go through all this trouble and spend money at the hospital”

His eyes were filled with anger. He grabbed my waist and asked coldly, "Are you angry with me because of the child, or because of Qingrui's nonsense"

I lowered my eyes and honestly nodded. “Yes, all of them. Can you let me go My brother is still waiting for me.”

"If it was because of Qing Rui, I have already punished her, and I do not allow her to offend you again... If it was because of the child—"

I smiled and looked at him, asking softly, “So what about the child”

"...There's no way around this. We can still have children in the future," he said, his words still chillingly cold.

I took a deep breath, pressing down on the sour and bitter anger churning inside me, forcing out a smile: "If you're speaking as an Emperor, then I unconditionally obey. Because I am your sacrifice, whether you want me to open my body or use me as a breeding machine, I accept it… But if you're speaking as my husband, my lover, the father of our children, all I can say is... we have no future."

I gently took a step back, broke free from his grasp, and hurried out of the room.

》》》

The Heyan Building is outrageously expensive, my brother drove us down there and Mr. Zhong personally came out to greet us. He directed his subordinates to park our car for us, then politely led us into a luxurious private room.

Hou Shaowen called him Zhong Shu, and he also required us to address him that way. My brother and I exchanged glances - this guy was a real slick operator. He immediately tried to take advantage of the situation and build relationships.

To be honest, this incident really hit me hard. I used to think that paying attention to Feng Shui was enough, but I didn't expect there to be such mystical things. Zhong Shu sighed, "That old man Chen said something about a Tiger煞 hurting people. My construction site is now at a standstill, and several people have died. The safety supervision department came knocking and ordered us to rectify the situation..."

"Zhong Shu, that old man Chen, can you tell us more about him" I'm most interested in that old geezer.

"Sure, he claimed his name was Chen Guosheng. He was quite talkative and seemed to have some skills. He didn't look like a con man... But after receiving the deposit, he disappeared. I sent people to his hometown to apprehend him, but both groups never returned..." Zhong Shu rubbed his temples in pain.

"Where is his hometown" I pressed.

"Oh, it's an immigrant village, I think it's called 'Shiquan溝 New Village.'"

Hearing this, my brother suddenly pinched me under the table.

Within this Shiquan溝 New Village, there are still descendants who migrated from Huangdao Village back then!acher and the principal Grandma is over ninety years old, would she receive themI strode into the shop.
