“Is this thing really useful?” asked Xiao Xian suspiciously.
“Since Sister is so powerful, the things she gave must not be bad either.” Xiao Ru looked at her sister unhappily and said, “If you don’t believe me, you can choose not to wear it. If you really bump into them, you can’t blame others.”
When Xiao Xian heard that, she hurriedly pouted and said, “I’ll wear it.”
The old woman pinched the talisman in her hand and smiled at Lu Sheng. “Thank you, Miss. Sorry for the trouble!”
Lu Sheng smiled. “You’re welcome. Since we’re fated, take these as a greeting gift.”
The old woman nodded slightly. She seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly asked Lu Sheng, “Oh right, has your boyfriend arrived?”
“He should be here soon.” Lu Sheng took out her phone and looked at the time. It was nine.
At this moment, Chu Sihan called.
After Lu Sheng answered the call, she asked, “You’re here?”
“Yes, I’m at the village entrance. Where are you?”
“Wait for me at the village entrance. I’ll come and fetch you now.”
“Okay.”
Lu Sheng had already hung up.
“Your boyfriend is here? Grandma will fetch him with you.”
The old woman picked up the torchlight on the table and wanted to follow her out.
“No need, Grandma.” Lu Sheng smiled and rejected her. “I can go alone.”
“How can that do? You’re going out alone at night. What if something happens?”
Lu Sheng chuckled. “Don’t worry, Grandma. Be it humans or ghosts, they can’t do anything to me.”
“Sister.” Xiao Xian put down her bag of snacks and looked at her with interest. “You’re so good-looking. Is your boyfriend very ugly?”
“Xiao Xian!” Xiao Ru frowned. “You can’t be so rude.”
“I was just asking.” Xiao Xian pouted. “Those good-looking girls often have men with beer bellies by their sides. They’re ugly and fat.”
Lu Sheng did not bicker with her and only said lightly, “My boyfriend is more good-looking than me.”
Xiao Xian was not a bad child, but she was a bit rebellious.
“Really?” Xiao Xian’s interest was piqued. “You’re already so good-looking. Is there anyone more good-looking than you?”
Lu Sheng looked even better than the celebrities on television. She was also the most good-looking person she had seen so far.
“Yes.”
Lu Sheng stood up and looked at the three of them. “Then, I’ll go out first and come back later.”
“Bring your torchlight. There are a lot of gravel on the path. Don’t trip.”
The old woman passed the torchlight to Lu Sheng.
“Thank you, Grandma!”
Lu Sheng did not refuse and reached out to receive it.
When Lu Sheng reached the village entrance, Chu Sihan was standing alone.
“Sihan,” she called.
Chu Sihan looked up and asked for the details. “What happened? Why did you come to this small village alone?”
“It’s a long story.” Lu Sheng pulled him back and said, “Ling Fei and I went to see the Shen family’s mother-daughter pair with Auntie Bingxin today. Perhaps they’ve started to hate us. I saw that something was amiss and followed them over. I didn’t expect them to drive for six hours to this small village.”
“The Shen family’s mother-daughter pair?” Chu Sihan frowned. “Why are they here?”
Lu Sheng sneered and said, “I heard that there’s a powerful ghost-raising master here.”
How could Chu Sihan not understand?
He smiled. “Do they really think they can deal with you with such unspeakable methods?”
How naive!
