《Soon To Die》 CH 1 Posted on November 14, 2021by UntamedS The holidays for popular artists were generally ridiculously little. Like Lu Wenxi, he could only sleep for 3 hours in two days, it was generally a common occurrence, but the company suddenly gave Lu Wenxi a full seven days of vacation. It wasn¡¯t to let him rest, but to let him hide from the press, for him to be a quiet beautiful man. He didn¡¯t take drugs, didn¡¯t gossip, didn¡¯t fight, or make a mess everywhere, it was because his acting skills were poor. A movie just recently released, titled ¡°The Patriarch¡±, was in the midst of a key promotional period. The film¡¯s director, screenwriter, and production team were all top-notch, and the cast was full of big names, with international action stars in the lead roles, making it a big production with a big cast and huge investment. The initial publicity was also a particularly big battle, occupying the headlines of all major platforms. Lu Wenxi, who got the leading role in the movie, was the young Patriarch in the movie. In history, this person was a hero in the past, a master of martial arts in the Republic of China, and in turbulent times, he became the spiritual leader of people, being decent and serving people with virtue. In the early days, there were many films featuring this character. It happened that such a character was turned into a rebellious teenager by Lu Wenxi, taking the style of ¡°young and dangerous¡±, and the hero was turned into a rebellious person. After watching the movie, the descendants of the hero took Lu Wenxi directly to court, saying he had tarnished the image of the hero and posted a lawyer¡¯s letter on Weibo. Fans also began to troll like crazy, saying that Lu Wenxi¡¯s face was paralyzed, his acting was so bad that it was embarrassing, and that all the screenshots of him in the movie only had one expression, and he couldn¡¯t do anything else but stare. His anti-fans launched a crazy attack for Lu Wenxi to get out of the entertainment industry and continue being a rich second generation, which promptly reached the front pages, and the company felt the powerlessness of a public relations team for the first time. The producer tried his best to promote the movie, but he didn¡¯t suppress Lu Wenxi, he didn¡¯t know whether Lu Wenxi was popular or whether he was really ¡­ It was a long story. After Lu Wenxi got his vacation, he was ¡°escorted¡± to the suburbs to ¡°recuperate¡±. He was a special rich second generation, ranking first in the rich list, Lu Wenxi¡¯s father was properly on the list, and his name was a household name-Lu Yushang. Many people said, Lu Wenxi was a young master that came to the entertainment industry to play. When Lu Wenxi entered the entertainment industry, he got first tier resources that many struggling actors couldn¡¯t reach. The result was good movies and good scripts. In addition, this person¡¯s reputation had been bad, it wasn¡¯t surprising that he was hacked on a large scale this time. This apartment was one of the many properties under the name of Lu Wenxi, after it was renovated, he had never lived in it. If not that a few days ago when he was packing things, he suddenly saw the apartment¡¯s door card and key, he would have forgotten that he had such a house. When the doorbell rang, Lu Wenxi was unpacking the express delivery. He wasn¡¯t doing it because he lacked people, but because he enjoyed the feeling of unboxing packages, there was a sense of thrill of exploring the unknown. This was also considered a way for him to decompress. He kept buying things and left them in the living room. He couldn¡¯t remember what he bought. So when he opened it, he was quite surprised. He clapped his hands and stood up, walked to the door and pressed open the visual intercom, but that no one was at the door. The screen switched from the doorway of the unit downstairs to the doorway of his own home, all empty, which made him ¡°tsk¡±, he turned off the visual intercom, and turned back to continue fighting with the boxes. As a result, just when he turned around, the doorbell rang again. He quickly turned around and immediately clicked on the screen to see, after switching between the two places, there was still no one. At this point, he was a little annoyed. Before he came, he deliberately asked his assistant to handle things, he didn¡¯t like to be disturbed, especially by the paparazzi and stalker fans. His orders were uniformly placed on the floor of the property, written in the name of his assistant, and every morning when his assistant came to bring him food, he would carry the packages up. It was hard to believe that after only one day of living here, the paparazzi had found out? Were they so capable? He wanted to curse into the visual intercom, but after thinking carefully, he gave up, he was undoubtedly exposed. When he went to unpack the courier again, the doorbell rang twice more, but he stopped paying any attention to it. Waiting for 10 minutes, he got up, went to the door to open the visual intercom, switched on the screen again to observe, but also turned on the video function, to see if anyone would come back, he wanted to catch them. Immediately he switched it on, the doorbell rang again. In both screens, there wasn¡¯t a single person. ¡°F*ck¡­¡­¡± Lu Wenxi cursed, speculating whether the doorbell was remotely manipulated. He opened the door of his house to confirm, to see if the doorbell had been tampered with, but as soon as he opened the door, cold wind blew in. The cold wind was very strange, it wasn¡¯t too much to say that it was gloomy. The wind almost passed through his body, chilling Lu Wenxi to his bones, his body in that moment felt like it had entered an ice cellar. There was still unpacked bubble wraps on the floor of the house, but it was also blown away. The wind swung in the house, made a spin, then disappeared. Lu Wenxi was stunned for a while, then peeped out to see, but there was no one in the corridor. He stood at the door again and looked at the doorbell of his house, it didn¡¯t look like it had ever been taken apart. Even though this was in the suburbs, it was also a first-tier city, with good residential properties and good confidentiality. If someone wanted to come up, he had to swipe his card on the door of the community and the door of the unit, and the elevator card corresponded to the floor where he was located. If he applied for a new card, he had to bring a real estate license. The general paparazzi shouldn¡¯t be able to get in, so it was very likely that the doorbell on the first floor had been tampered with. He sighed and went back to the living room, ready to ask his assistant to find another property tomorrow. It wasn¡¯t that he couldn¡¯t find it himself, but if he did, it would definitely lead to unnecessary trouble, and he had decided to be a dedicated ¡°shrunken turtle¡± now. When he rolled up his sleeves to continue to unpack the courier, he suddenly heard the sound of walking in the hallway, Lu Wenxi had been paying attention to the movement of the door, so he immediately noticed. In fact, the sound of footsteps was very light, the strange thing was that this person walking, seemed to be dragging something, the thing scratched the floor tiles, making a screechy sound. Lu Wenxi was listening attentively, and then he heard a knock on the door. He couldn¡¯t help but laugh, this time it was a knock on the door, there couldn¡¯t be no one there, right? He immediately turned back, opened the visual intercom, he finally saw the person. It was a teenager. With simple short black hair, no make-up, but he still looked like a trainee. The teenager had a pair of sword eyebrows, his eyes weren¡¯t big or flashy, but when he looked carefully, his eyes were very beautiful, with narrow phoenix eyes, he looked heroic. He had a high nose, but his lips were very thin, with sharp features, he was a uniquely handsome teenager. The teenager only wore a simple white sweater, with not even a letter on it, holding a feng shui compass-like thing in his hand, the teenager lowered his head, looking at the pointer. Lu Wenxi looked at the teenager for a while, and couldn¡¯t help but laugh mockingly. He reached out and opened the door, quietly looking at the teenager standing in the doorway, the teenager seemed more handsome in person, his skin was very good. But the moment the teenager raised his head, Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t smile again. The teenager¡¯s pupils were extremely black, like unmelted ink, it was pitch black, hollow and bizarre. His gaze was more piercing than the winter. After a moment of reprieve, Lu Wenxi asked: ¡°How did you get up here?¡± The young man was also looking at Lu Wenxi, he seemed to have never seen such a fancy man, he couldn¡¯t help but look at him a few more times. Lu Wenxi¡¯s hair was dyed silvery white, with a bit of cherry blossom pink at the end, and was organized by Lu Wenxi¡¯s stylist to the top of his head, revealing his full forehead. His jacket was also silver-white, at a glance, there were also blue, pink, yellow and flowery green colours. Also because of this jacket, let Lu Wenxi looked like a blooming flesh pink rose. Obviously he was afraid of the cold that was why he was wearing a jacket, but with the torn jeans, in the teenager¡¯s opinion, it was weird. The teenager finally put his eyes on Lu Wenxi¡¯s face. In the entertainment industry, Lu Wenxi¡¯s acting skills and personality couldn¡¯t stand the test, but his face could. Lu Wenxi could be popular in a short time, because he had a beautiful smile and a charming face. He had thick eyebrows with a pair of peach blossom eyes, the bridge of his nose was straight and the tip of the nose was rounded and slightly upturned, the side view of the shape of his nose was perfect to be used as an example by plastic surgeons. Even in his ¡°vacation¡±, he didn¡¯t forget to put on makeup, his lips were painted with an orange powder, which matched his snow white skin. There was a trending topic on Weibo, the side faces of male celebrities, and Lu Wenxi was steadily chosen as No. 1. His jawline was very beautiful, and because he hadn¡¯t had plastic surgery, his expression was natural and there were no ugly photos with a stiff face, so the face fans were been Lu Wenxi¡¯s main fans. Nothing about Lu Wenxi convinced anyone, but his face naturally convinced them. Perhaps because he knew he was handsome, so Lu Wenxi had a confident and relaxed expression. The young man finally spoke: ¡°This poor Taoist tracked an evil spirit all the way here, this evil spirit should have entered into the house, can you let this poor Tao ¡­¡­¡± The young man¡¯s words hadn¡¯t finished, when Lu Wenxi coldly interrupted: ¡°Evil spirit? Also poor Taoist?¡± ¡±Well, the compass shows ¡­¡­¡± ¡±Are you a paparazzi or a trainee?¡± ¡±Poor Taoist is ¡­¡­¡± ¡±Oh, where is the whole program team? Where is the camera?¡± Lu Wenxi interrupted the teenager again, looking a bit aggressive. The teenager didn¡¯t speak, he just calmly looked at Lu Wenxi, anyway, this person wouldn¡¯t let him finish his speaking. Lu Wenxi was also looking at the teenager, the more he looked the angrier he became: ¡°Look, I don¡¯t know which company you just signed with, you came to me to show your acting skills, to take advantage of my situation? Why don¡¯t you do something serious?¡± He said, and looked at him properly. He found a chain hanging around the waist of the teenager, with one end on the ground. That was the source of that sound. The young man¡¯s expression, from polite and humble, gradually became a little cold, he seemed displeased, his thin lips pursed into a straight line. Adjusting his mind, he said: ¡°Poor Taoist has been tracking the evil spirit up to here, the compass shows that the evil spirit is in your home, can you let this poor Taoist go in for a moment, and get the evil spirit out immediately.¡± The young man¡¯s voice wasn¡¯t as cold as he looked, but very warm, and his tone was mostly respectful. When speaking in a courteous manner, he had a kind of literati elegance. ¡±Yo, you¡¯re still quite into the scene.¡± Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t help but laugh, then he took out a card from his pocket, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll assume you are a Taoist priest, there¡¯s no money in your pocket, so you can take this card, which is estimated to have fifty to sixty thousand yuan, the password is my birthday, go online to find out, this time, are you satisfied?¡± The young man looked at Lu Wenxi and didn¡¯t say anything for a long time. Lu Wenxi stared at the teenager, carefully measuring the teenager¡¯s eyes, wanting to determine whether the teenager was wearing contacts, he still had a mischievous smile. The teenager didn¡¯t take the card, but instead took a yellow slip of paper from his pocket, and handed it over, Lu Wenxi understood, he quickly took the slip of paper, took a signature pen and signed a name on the yellow strip, then handed it back to the teenager. The teenager was stunned for a moment as he took the signed charm seal. Lu Wenxi was very generous and said: ¡°If you wanted an autograph, you should have said so earlier. What, you still want a special signature? What kind of words do you want written?¡± The young man took the seal and looked at Lu Wenxi again, slightly squinting his eyes, his eyes seemed to flash with a strange light, it became bright for a moment. A moment later, those eyes returned to normal again, he sighed, ¡°It¡¯s a pity.¡± ¡±Hmm?¡± Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t understand. ¡±You can take this to save your life, maybe it can keep you alive for more time. After the talisman seal is used, I will sense it, and if you can delay longer, I can still come and save you.¡± After saying that, he handed the talisman seal to Lu Wenxi again, he turned his head and left. Lu Wenxi watched the young man leave. The chain was only finger-thick and was rolled and tied around his wrist, looking like a very chic bracelet. After the teenager turned around, Lu Wenxi noticed that the teenager also had a fan pinned behind him. It wasn¡¯t until the teenager entered the escape tunnel that he was able to determine that the teenager had climbed the stairs up. This was the 22nd floor. After closing the door, Lu Wenxi looked at the charm seal in his hand, sneered, and casually threw it at the front door. He entered the room, opened the suitcase, took out an anti-eavesdropping detector from the inside, screwed up the telescopic rod, opened the door again, and scanned it in the corridor without finding anything. In the whole corridor, only the ceiling corridor monitor was on. He watched it for a while, then went back to his home. No wiretaps. No pinhole camera. There was nothing on the teenager that could hold a camera either. He wasn¡¯t a paparazzi, just a private student in a strange dress code? But the way the teenager looked at him, it didn¡¯t look like he was looking at an idol at all. He stood in the doorway for a moment, then looked at the seal in the entranceway and took a look at it. The seal was yellow paper with strange patterns drawn on it with red paint, which looked particularly cheap, except that the signature on the back was a bit of an eyesore. ¡°It can¡¯t really be ¡­¡­ a Taoist priest, right?¡± Lu Wenxi rubbed his earlobe and entered the living room, sitting on the sofa and looking back and forth at the tailsman. ¡°Uh ¡­¡­ Did what I said hurt? It won¡¯t cause psychological shadows for the young Taoist priest, right? But even if he¡¯s really a Taoist priest, I guess he¡¯s still a little liar.¡± Believing that there were ghosts in the world, it was better to study the core socialist values. After being puzzled, he suddenly heard the sound of something falling down in the bedroom, which startled him. Because the arrival of the teenager, coupled with the biting cold wind, he was a bit nauseous, thinking about it, his scalp went numb. Hearing a sound in the empty bedroom, he was so scared that his heartbeat went out of rhythm. After hesitating for a while, he took the talisman and tiptoed to the bedroom door, doing a half-day psychological construction before pushing it open. The moment the door opened, he saw the newly bought floor sweeping robot bumping around inside, with his selfie stand upside down. Lu Wenxi was very narcissistic. The kind of narcissism known in the industry. He could stay in front of the mirror, taking thousands of selfies and staring at his face. Even in this situation, he didn¡¯t forget to bring his selfie stick and camera. He walked over to pick up the selfie stick, watched the sweeping robot pass smoothly and continue working, and felt ridiculous that he really thought his home could be haunted. After casually putting the seal on top of the sweeper, he went straight back to the living room and continued to unpack the boxes. About an hour later, his cell phone suddenly rang. He only brought his personal cell phone, not many people knew his number, and it was usually very quiet, so it sounded especially abruptly at this time. He didn¡¯t hesitate, he directly got up and brought the phone, glanced at the caller ID, seeing that it was his friend Yuan Yefu calling, he immediately pressed answer. ¡±Old Yuan, something wrong?¡± He asked. ¡±Brother Lu, let¡¯s not be argue with that bastard.¡± Yuan Yefu directly replied, it must have been intended to comfort Lu Wenxi, but it made Lu Wenxi confused. ¡°With who?¡± Lu Wenxi asked breathlessly as his entire body slumped on the sofa. Yuan Yefu on the other side of the phone suddenly realized that Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t know what had happened and didn¡¯t respond. The agent and assistants around Lu Wenxi were very professional, he was always the first to know everything, if Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t know, it could only be Lu Wenxi¡¯s team were deliberately concealing it. The reason for the concealment was very simple, they were afraid of the poor temperament of Lu Wenxi getting him into trouble. ¡±Ah ¡­¡­ nothing, brother Lu, where are you? Do you have time to come out to play?¡± Yuan Yefu replied with a dry smile. ¡°It¡¯s no problem, but tell brother first, who are we not going to argue with?¡± Yuan Yefu made a wise decision in a flash and hung up. Just pretend that this call was never made. Lu Wenxi looked at the phone screen and raised his eyebrow, knowing that if he called back, Yuan Yefu would play dead or play dumb. After hesitating for a moment, he opened Weibo. CH 2 Posted on January 4, 2022by UntamedS Warning: Mentions Of Su!c!de Lu Wenxi had a small Weibo account. After logging on to Weibo, he first went to check the hot search list, seeing that the first few weren¡¯t about him, he breathed out a sigh of relief. Many people dreamt of being on the hot search list, but people like Lu Wenxi, who was on the cusp of a storm, was afraid of being on the list, for the simple reason that as long as there was news about him, it would lead to a wave of scolding. Clicking on a hot search, he saw someone¡¯s post: ¡°I heard that someone praised Lu Wenxi.¡± Such a comment was ranked first in the comment section. He went to check the trending topics, #recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry # was still very lively. He didn¡¯t look much, his fingers quickly moved over the screen, he looked for a while, and found nothing, he suddenly thought of something, was Yuan Yefu teasing him? Clicking on the search bar again, he found it at once. Hot search number one: Ge Xinlong angrily criticized Lu Wenxi¡¯s poor acting skills. Liu Wenxi had to think for a while to remember who Ge Xinlong was, and then went in along the first point of the hot search to find out who Ge Xinlong was. A big fat man, in his fifties or sixties, he often played eunuch roles and treacherous court officials, he even did some walk-ins in TV dramas. To Lu Wenxi, this Ge Xinlong was just a background actor, but in the eyes of the majority of netizens, he was an old-timer, which showed the strength of an actor. Lu Wenxi was recently being severely criticized by netizens, so it instantly went to the top of the hot search list. As he watched the video, he couldn¡¯t help but roll his eyes, he threw his phone aside, laid down on the sofa and pretended to be a corpse, then he twisted his head, and saw a Ukulele sitting not far away. He stared at Ukulele for a while, he suddenly sat up, brought his phone and logged into his Weibo account, then he quickly made a post. Lu Wenxi: Going live in 5 minutes, I have something in mind to say. [sad] [sad] [sad] After posting that, he stood up, took a look at the living room, it looked too messy, so he decided to go into his bedroom and put the phone on the selfie stand, his agent called, but he ignored it. Then he took out his laptop from his bag and after opening it, he logged into the live stream and prepared to watch the comments on his laptop. When he was ready, he opened the live room and immediately, a large number of viewers came in. Lu Wenxi had been in the limelight lately, and fans were lining up to take a number plate and curse him. The first ones were definitely ¡°Weixi¡±, these were Lu Wenxi¡¯s true love (face) fans, the comment screen was harmonious like a chat room where cute girls gathered. Who am I: WENXI WENXI, calling out your name, your lips should keep smiling, love you, love you, BIUBIUBIU ~ Love me the most Wenxi: Wenxi, Wenxi, don¡¯t be disturbed by those people, you are the best! A second to smile and open up: Xixi, I will always support you. He looked at the screen blankly. Lu Wenxi¡¯s clothes weren¡¯t formal, but he still looked stylish. He was adjusting the angle of the camera, and seemed quite concerned about the lighting. At this time, someone in the live room asked the burning question in everyone¡¯s minds. Cherry blossoms quietly blooming: Is Lu Wenxi responding to Ge Xinlong? Lifetime anti-fan: #recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry# Wave, hey, hey, hey: # Recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry # When Lu Wenxi looked at the screen again, he found that the anti fans had started to dominate the screen, and the true fans started to fight with the anti fans, because there was no one to help him moderate the room, these anti-fans weren¡¯t kicked out. He just looked at the comments for a while, then finally, he seriously looked at the camera: ¡°Alright, thank you all for supporting me in this situation, you¡¯re all willing to stay with me, I¡¯m grateful.¡± Because there were too many people leaving messages, the comments moved at a faster speed, and from the computer, he could see that the comments were blocking his face, he immediately clicked on the blocking mobile comments function, now the comments only showed on the right side, after all, narcissists didn¡¯t allow their faces to be blocked by other things. Just when everyone thought he was going to start apologizing, he brought the ukulele from his side and spoke up: ¡°I¡¯m sure you all know that my single has just gone online, yes, it¡¯s ¡°Like Like You¡±, this song, I put a lot of effort into it, and it¡¯s free to download ¡­¡­ ¡± He introduced his new song, not a word about his acting, not to mention the intention to apologize, just when everyone was madly protesting, he had grabbed the Ukulele and started singing. Don¡¯t rush: He¡¯s taking advantage of the popularity to promote his new song. Lonely Heart: Lu Wenxi, you aren¡¯t even ready to respond to Senior Ge Xinlong? His words are very reasonable, I hope you realize your shortcomings. Thousands of miles: I took my pants off, and you show me this. Six six: I came in to see the hilarity, the result, I actually listened to the song? Also unexpectedly ¡­¡­ it¡¯s very good? Acacia: Lu Wenxi, you sing so well, why do you want to act? Lifetime anti-fan: #recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry# You¡¯re disgusting!!! Lifetime anti-fan: #recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry# You¡¯re disgusting! Lifetime Anti-fan: #recorded kissing scene, get out of the entertainment industry # You¡¯re disgusting!! At this time, the comments in the live room changed abruptly. My Goddess: I wipe, wipe, the door behind Lu Wenxi opened by itself. Waving everything: It really opened! It¡¯s pitch black inside, it¡¯s scary! The light in the darkness: f*ck f*ck f*ck! The door opened by itself, not like it was blown open by the wind. When Lu Wenxi saw that comment, he couldn¡¯t help but turn around to look at the door, and the music came to an abrupt halt. That was the door of the other room, it was closed before, he remembered that when he adjusted the phone, he had deliberately checked if the door was open, because it would affect the light on his side. At first, he thought it was the robot sweeping the floor, so he took his mobile phone, turned the camera, as he explained to everyone: ¡°Don¡¯t be afraid, it should be the robot sweeping the floor¡­ er, the robot sweeping the floor is in the living room? However, there is really no one else here, so it must have opened by itself. ¡± Saying that, he took the phone to the door, turned on the light and pushed the door completely open. The cloakroom was open, there was no cabinet door, all the partitions were clearly visible, there weren¡¯t even clothes inside, it was an unobstructed view, making it impossible for anything to hide. ¡°Look, no one.¡± Lu Wenxi went back to his bedroom, ¡°I don¡¯t stay here often, I just came over two days ago, the living room is filled with express boxes, so it¡¯s a little messy.¡± After saying that, he nonchalantly closed the door of the checkroom, and then clipped the phone on the selfie rack, sat back on the bed and grabbed his Ukulele again. When the live broadcast ended, Lu Wenxi¡¯s song hadn¡¯t finished, he had been logged out of his account. Then he was bombarded with calls from his agent. When he answered the phone, he heard Han Fanming¡¯s angry voice: ¡°Lu Wenxi, are you f*cking heartless?¡± ¡°It¡¯s just to promote the new song.¡± ¡°The plans I made for you before were all said to the dogs, weren¡¯t they?¡± ¡°I think if you enter the entertainment industry, your assessment would be even worse than mine.¡± Lu Wenxi replied somewhat helplessly, still holding the Ukulele in his hand and playing it. He wouldn¡¯t even scold Han Fanming, because he knew he couldn¡¯t. Han Fanming was panting on the other end of the phone, obviously angry. No matter which agent met such a disobedient person, he would collapse like him. Lu Wenxi sang for a while before he spoke, ¡°Do you think it would be better if I changed this section to this ¡­¡­¡± ¡°Come to my office tomorrow!¡± Han Fanming hurriedly hung up the phone. Lu Wenxi pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, he stopped concentrating for a moment, but he quickly readjusted and kept playing the Ukulele. He kept singing. To vent his emotions. Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t look at his phone again that night, he just sang until he was tired, then he washed up and went to bed. But he didn¡¯t know, the hot search list and popular posts had changed. The first hot search: Lu Wenxi live haunted house. Hot topic: #LuWenxi house haunted The first on the hot search list on Weibo was the video sent by a technology emperor. Liu Wenxi¡¯s live video was replayed and intercepted when Lu Wenxi was singing and when the door opened, at normal speed, it seemed normal. But then the video was slowed down and zoomed in partially, and then the round door handle that was closed tightly seemed to turn before the door opened. It was slowed down to the point that it gave people goosebumps. Some people said in the comments that it was a targeted hype to try to suppress the hateful comments. But more people chose to believe. The reason was simple, from Lu Wenxi¡¯s phone angle, thee was only one person in the room, with how fast the speed was, no one could disappear that fast, after all, the cloakroom had no other doors or windows. The point was: Lu Wenxi¡¯s acting skill was so poor, if he was really acting for others to see, it was impossible for him perform so naturally. Because of this focus, everyone firmly believed that Lu Wenxi¡¯s house was haunted, it wasn¡¯t for show. The person in question, Lu Wenxi, was lying in bed, sleeping particularly well. He removed his makeup, his hair was unstyled, he looked cozy, lazy, and sleepy, he actually gave a kind of big brother next door feeling. He turned over, then heard a loud noise from outside, as if something collapsed, which scared the sleeping man. Half-asleep, he couldn¡¯t tell whether the sound was from his dream or whether there was really a strange sound. After listening for a while and hearing no other movement, he soon fell asleep again and woke up in the morning, having forgotten about it. When Lu Wenxi entered the bathroom to wash up, he heard the doorbell, he checked the time and knew it was his assistant who had come, so he ignored it. After a while, his assistant opened the door himself and came in. The reason he rang the doorbell was to prepare Lu Wenxi mentally and not to let the others catch him in an embarrassing act. Lu Wenxi¡¯s team weren¡¯t many, but it wasn¡¯t little. Two assistants, a makeup artist and costume stylist, an accompanying photographer, a bodyguard and driver. Only one assistant came this time, another assistant had already arrived at the company ahead of time and was probably talking to his agent, so that Han Fanming could calm down before Lu Wenxi arrived at the company. Because it wasn¡¯t suitable to post photos recently, the photographer took a vacation and didn¡¯t come. Entering the house, assistant Yin Hanwei looked at the dining room, noticing that one of the dining room chairs had fallen over and another was leaning against the wall. ¡°The boss wouldn¡¯t have eaten secretly, would he?¡± Yin Hanwei asked, pointing to the dining room. Before he moved, they helped Lu Wenxi clean up the rooms, and the dining room tables and chairs were neatly arranged. Lu Wenxi, a person with almost no life skills, couldn¡¯t have cooked and used the dining room table, which could only mean he ordered take-out or something like that. Artists needed to control their diet, Lu Wenxi was no exception, a few more bites made him look swollen, as long as he looked fat, it couldn¡¯t be hidden from the camera. Makeup artist Lin Xiao took a look and turned Yin Hanwei, ¡°Just pretend you don¡¯t know, the boss has been under a lot of pressure lately.¡± ¡°Boss ¡­¡­ is this place really haunted?¡± Yin Hanwei murmured, while looking around, ¡°Just now, when I opened the door, a big gust of abnormally cold wind blew out, I thought the windows were open, but it wasn¡¯t.¡± ¡°You¡¯re also in the entertainment industry, how can you believe that?¡± Lin Xiao laughed and began to open her makeup case and take things out. Yin Hanwei deliberately dodged a little bit. He remembered the last time he was forced to stop by a paparazzi, Lin Xiao¡¯s cosmetic case fell, and Lin Xiao cried miserably holding the cosmetic case. Later, according to statistics, Lin Xiao¡¯s loss after such a fall reached at least hundreds of thousands, with a wave of his hand, Liu Wenxi gave Lin Xiao 500,000 yuan to buy it again, and Lin Xiao was a little better, but she became more careful. That was only for travel, all of Lin Xiao¡¯s cosmetics together, could probably be a down payment for a house. When Lu Wenxi wiped his hair and came out, he took a look at the dining room chairs and couldn¡¯t help but frown: ¡°Why did you guys come and make such a mess in the room?¡± It had to be a fight to get the chairs like this, right? Lin Xiao immediately changed the topic: ¡°Boss Lu, I¡¯ll leave you a few beauty instruments for night use, this one is for the eyes.¡± Lu Wenxi casually glanced at it, ¡°hmm¡±, then he sat in front of Lin Xiao, and let Lin Xiao apply his makeup. During that period, the driver, Brother Liu called, Yin Hanwei directly put it on loudspeaker, ¡°Driver Liu, what¡¯s wrong?¡± ¡°Don¡¯t come down yet, there is a bit of chaos downstairs, it¡¯s filled with reporters.¡± When he spoke, he also blew a breath into the phone, with Lin Xiao¡¯s understanding of him, he was probably smoking outside. Yin Hanwei quickly moved to the windows, looking at the battle downstairs, he couldn¡¯t help but stare: ¡°What¡¯s going on? Our location was exposed? Maybe they came to see the haunted house?¡± ¡°It¡¯s not for the boss.¡± ¡°Then?¡± ¡°I heard that an actress living in this neighborhood committed suicide, she¡¯d been dead for a while, but she was found in the morning. The police has started controlling the scene downstairs, I don¡¯t know the specific situation.¡± Lu Wenxi was still trying to stay in place, when he heard the news, he couldn¡¯t help but freeze, he immediately remembered someone ¨C Deng Xuanhan. On the day he came to live here, he bumper into Deng Xuanhan. They weren¡¯t familiar with each other, but they were in the same industry. When they looked up, they saw each other, so they greeted. Deng Xuanhan mentioned that since he was her neighbor, she¡¯d visit when she was free. She asked which unit he lived in and the floor, he answered. After the two separated, Deng Xuanhan didn¡¯t come to say hello. Only a day or so had passed, Deng Xuanhan committed suicide? Yin Hanwei and Liu Xiao asked about the situation, then they made a quick decision: ¡°Lin Xiao, give the boss a mask and a jacket, I asked Brother Liu to drive the car to the underground parking garage, once we get out of the elevator, we¡¯ll immediately get in the car. The news of the actress committing suicide is very big, soon this place will be surrounded, we won¡¯t be able to get out.¡± Now, there were many policemen downstairs, and only a few journalists. It was estimated that they had been following Deng Xuanhan for a long time, so they happened to be ahead. It was only a matter of time before more reporters arrived. Lin Xiao immediately nodded, Lu Wenxi also stood up, went to the living room, put on a black jacket and a hat, and wore his mask, he was ready to leave. Lin Xiao hurriedly packed her things, they quickly walked to the elevator that led directly to the underground parking garage, as the elevator door opened, Brother Liu was parked not far away. When he entered the car, Lu Wenxi took off the mask and let out a sigh of relief. Taking out his phone, he wanted to log into his Weibo account, then he remembered Han Fanming changed his password, he sighed and logged into his backup account. Sure enough, the news of Deng Xuanhan¡¯s su!cide occupied all the popular pages, and no one was paying any attention to him anymore. He roughly scrolled around and found that the latest news showed that Deng Xuanhan had died at about 7 pm yesterday, the way she died was sl!tting her wrists in the bath tub, still wearing the dress she wore at the award ceremony, but there were no photos, people could only photograph the hem of her gown. Last night at 7 pm, he was unpacking the packages ¡­¡­ Suddenly, he had goosebumps all over his body. The visual intercom was an electronic screen that shows the time, and at the time he was harassed by the doorbell, he deliberately looked at the time, it was 7:37 pm. Did Deng Xuanhan come to look for him? CH 3 Posted on January 23, 2022by UntamedS When Lu Wenxi arrived at the company, he was more relaxed. He was an atheist and didn¡¯t believe in ghosts and monsters, so he thought the timing was just a coincidence. Besides, it was just a stranger who committed su!cide, even if it was a peer, it had nothing to do with him, he felt no grief, at most, he was a little sorry. After entering the company, he noticed that everyone avoided him as if he had the plague, feeling helpless, he took the elevator directly to the 7th floor. He quietly walked towards Han Fanming¡¯s office. His assistants stopped at the door and went to the adjacent lounge. When Lu Wenxi entered the office, he saw that he wasn¡¯t the only one who came, Yu Yan was also there. Yu Yan was under the same agent as him. Unlike his overnight success, Yu Yan rose up bit by bit, and he got to this stage with the accumulation of his works. Only one year ago, he transferred to Han Fanming and began to enjoy the company¡¯s first-tier resources. He couldn¡¯t talk to Yu Yan. Or rather, not many people could talk to him. He walked in and sat down, Han Fanming sat diagonally across from him, still fiddling with his phone in his hand, he didn¡¯t attention to him. Yu Yan, who was sitting next to him, was also using his mobile phone, but instead of reading the news, he was playing a game similar to ¡°Connected¡±. From time to time, his phone emitted a ¡°biubiu¡± electronic sound. He looked at them, a little hesitant, thinking whether to take out his phone and play a game, to follow the trend? Han Fanming turned off his phone and put it aside, looking at Lu Wenxi, his gaze seemed a bit complicated. After a moment¡¯s hesitation, he finally spoke, ¡°Have you heard about it?¡± ¡°Heard about what?¡± ¡°Deng Xuanhan is dead.¡± ¡°I didn¡¯t do it.¡± As he sat on the side, Yu Yan couldn¡¯t hold back his laughter. Han Fanming was speechless. He didn¡¯t say a word for a long time. He finally moved on, ¡°Do you ¡­ have any thoughts?¡± ¡°Did you invite me to analyze the cause of death?¡± ¡°Are you really stupid or are you playing dumb? I¡¯m asking you, do you have any feelings? I don¡¯t want you to be attacked by fans then you get depressed and commit su!cide.¡± Lu Wenxi looked him, ¡°Look at it like this. For example, if you were as handsome as me and so rich, will you be willing to commit su!cide?¡± Yu Yan held back his laughter until he started making weird noises. Han Fanming glared at Yu Yan before continuing, ¡°I wanted to scold you, but I was afraid to stimulate you and make you k!ll yourself too. But now it seems that I was overthinking, so let¡¯s talk about the things you did last night, okay?¡± ¡°I was just promoting the new song.¡± ¡°I know you like to sing, and I also know that you entered the entertainment industry to be a singer, so I gave you a customized plan, but you never cooperated, in all my years of being an agent, I have never met an artist like you.¡± Lu Wenxi liked to sing and disliked acting. He was born in a businessman¡¯s family, he once followed Lu Yushang to several dinner parties, watching people drink, toast, and say flattering words. At that time, he became disgusted with these greasy people, and secretly decided that he didn¡¯t want to become such a person. He didn¡¯t have a passion, he just liked singing, so he signed up with the company and debuted, only to start receiving training for an acting career. The script ¡°The Patriarch¡± was received with reluctance and stubbornness, and Lu Wenxi really didn¡¯t put much effort into acting. But when the overwhelming curses came, it still left him dumbfounded. ¡°Now the market isn¡¯t the same as before, it¡¯s still awkward, not many people will buy albums, most of fans still don¡¯t want to spend money to listen to songs, the current state of simply being a singer, you can go and see for yourself.¡± Han Fanming said as calmly as possible. ¡°I¡¯m not short of money.¡± ¡°Yes, you aren¡¯t short of money, you want attention, right? If you have no fame, who will know your songs? If you put out a song, maybe it won¡¯t even be as popular as anything an Internet star does. Nowadays, many new singers are participating in variety shows, reality shows, or acting in TV shows and movies.¡± Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t speak. ¡°Look at you, I found you the best resources, a good team, yet even a powerful director couldn¡¯t save you, have you seen your angry expression in the film, was someone pinching your neck? You aren¡¯t prepared to cherish the movie resources, I can¡¯t let you participate in reality shows, with your temper, you can only participate in ¡°Change X¡±.¡± Liu Wenxi looked at the other side, and saw Yu Yan shaking with laughter. Technically, he didn¡¯t make a sound, but the phone¡¯s ¡°biubiu¡± sound was gone. Obviously, he hadn¡¯t played for a long time. He raised his hand and pointed to Yu Yan: ¡°Why is he sitting here laughing?¡± ¡°He¡¯s here to save the day.¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°The contract for your next script hasn¡¯t been decided yet, so there¡¯s still room for maneuvering. You¡¯re on the cusp of a storm and it was already pointed out that you¡¯re a bit gangly, so the next script isn¡¯t quite right for you, why don¡¯t you just pass it to Yu Yan?¡± Lu Wenxi¡¯s next script was titled ¡°For Justice¡±. The content of the movie was the same as the name, it was the story of a police officer. The main character of the story, at the beginning, was a young man with passion, who had just become a police officer, he was obsessed with being a good police officer, saving victims and fighting against criminals. The main character wasn¡¯t around when his mother died, and lost his first love, and finally got together with a female forensic scientist. The story was very positive, the script was tear-jerking, the main character¡¯s inner conflict, struggle, stubbornness all needed to be well acted. The role Lu Wenxi was about to play, was the male lead. Originally, Han Fanming had a good plan, Lu Wenxi would first star in a popular film as the main supporting character, get some fame, and then take the lead to become a film¡¯s male lead. In this way, the exposure would be enough, maybe he could get a wave of fans and become famous at once. The result was that he made such a mess, he was a little afraid that when Lu Wenxi finished acting, he would be scolded for ruining the image of a police officer. Lu Wenxi finished listening and turned his head to look at Yu Yan. Yu Yan didn¡¯t look at him, and continued playing his game, as if he was just a bystander. Yu Yan was a person with very personal characteristics, with deep and three-dimensional facial features, he looked he was mixed-race, and he had a tall figure. Because of long-term exercise, his figure was also kept well. Many people had mentioned that Yu Yan was a walking hormone. He was very manly and handsome, he was really in line with the positive image of this film. ¡°The main character is a weak chicken.¡± Lu Wenxi retorted. Han Fanming was stunned. ¡°The protagonist was very weak at first, and he was almost transferred to civilian work. It was all supported by his will. His size ¡­ is suitable for being a security guard.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not easy, you actually read the script in advance.¡± Han Fanming replied mockingly. ¡°I don¡¯t want to be scolded all the time.¡± ¡°Then what do you think?¡± Han Fanming asked him. Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t respond. Han Fanming didn¡¯t wait for him and continued, ¡°I transferred Sister Xia to someone else.¡± Lu Wenxi was stunned, ¡°Why? She didn¡¯t make any mistakes, and I was the only one home last night.¡± ¡°That team of yours is too indulgent and they let you run amok all day long. She was the oldest yet she didn¡¯t try to stop you, instead she came over to plead for you, so I transferred her to someone else, she can try to be an agent.¡± Sister Xia wasn¡¯t young, she was already 33 years old this year. She was Lu Wenxi¡¯s life assistant from the beginning of Lu Wenxi¡¯s debut, and Lu Wenxi¡¯s relationship with her was good. Lu Wenxi felt a bit uncomfortable, he wanted to say something, but he remained silent. To be an agent, it was good for Sister Xia, right? Han Fanming was only 31 years old this year, but he was already an established agent, Sister Xia and Han Fanming had no difference, education, means and contacts, Sister Xia had also accumulated a lot. Sensing that the atmosphere wasn¡¯t very good, Yu Yan paused his game, got up and organized his clothes, ¡°I¡¯m going out first.¡± ¡°Go and have breakfast.¡± Han Fanming responded. ¡°Mhm.¡± After saying that, he left Han Fanming¡¯s office. Han Fanming watched Yu Yan leave, and only then did he speak again, ¡°Let¡¯s talk about your new project, I¡¯m going to train you again, this time, you absolutely can¡¯t disgrace me again, at the very least, you have to try.¡± ¡ª Lu Wenxi walked out of the office more than half an hour later, and as soon as he went out, he saw Yu Yan leaning against the door, still playing his mobile game, looking like a bad student who had been punished by the teacher. He looked at Yu Yan sideways and didn¡¯t make a sound. Yu Yan glanced at him and spoke up first, ¡°My schedule is full until next May.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± This sentence was quite straightforward, Yu Yan was telling Lu Wenxi that his schedule was full, he had no time to take over Lu Wenxi¡¯s script. Han Fanming called Yu Yan over mostly to scare Lu Wenxi. ¡°You ¡­¡­ just went along with him?¡± Lu Wenxi looked at Yu Yan, he was a little puzzled, after all, he was gay, there were times he suspected Yu Yan was secretly in love with him, or he was in love with Han Fanming. ¡°Turn.¡± Yu Yan raised the corners of his mouth as he looked at Lu Wenxi. Liu Wenxi was cooperative. He turned a circle in front of Yu Yan, he couldn¡¯t let Yu Yan stand as punishment for half an hour for nothing. If he wanted to see, he should enjoy it. He had liquid foundation on his face, his hair wasn¡¯t styled, and he was wearing a simple black jacket and ripped jeans. Yu Yan looked at him for a while, then he put away his phone, moved his shoulders, and turned his head to the lounge and knocked on the glass door, soon his team members came out of the lounge and followed Yu Yan out. Yin Hanwei and Lin Xiao had just learned that Sister Xia¡¯s salary for the month was held back by Han Fanming because she helped Lu Wenxi plead for mercy, and she was then sent to be a newcomer¡¯s agent, so both of them looked a bit dejected. This time Han Fanming was determined to teach Lu Wenxi a lesson, so there was no room for maneuvering. Assistants and agents, many people felt that agents were more noble, and the basic salary of agents were twice as high as that of assistants, but in fact, they also followed the artists. To be the agent of a newcomer, the artist¡¯s share of the bonus was pathetic, the agent could only grit their teeth as much as possible to promote the artist. To be Lu Wenxi¡¯s assistant, the end of the year artist bonus, was worth a few years of wages. In addition, Lu Wenxi was rich, during the New Year, he always gave them a generous red envelope, so their income was very substantial. So they didn¡¯t know whether to congratulate Sister Xia, or feel sorry for her. Sister Xia was like a grandmother, she had really spoilt Lu Wenxi. Leaving the company, Brother Liu drove his car to Lu Wenxi¡¯s main apartment. On the way, Lu Wenxi received a phone call from Lu Yushang. When the old man spoke, he liked to use an official accent, and he spoke to Lu Wenxi in the same way: ¡°Son, have you been wronged? Don¡¯t be a star, come home, dad will give you 300 million, start your own business, OK?¡± ¡°I¡¯m fine.¡± Lu Wenxi replied. ¡°Then I¡¯ll add another 100 million, dad will send you a few experienced seniors to help you, to make sure you won¡¯t lose money.¡± ¡°Dad, I know a man like you who doesn¡¯t have a mistress or a wife has money to spend. But money is a good thing, save it for something else, don¡¯t break the capital chain and collapse all of a sudden.¡± ¡°Little brat! Is this how to talk to your old man.¡± ¡°Well, since you¡¯re so lively, I¡¯m relieved, okay, I¡¯m hanging up.¡± As he hung up the phone, Lu Wenxi was a little sad. Leaning in the armchair of the car, he suddenly felt helpless, but he knew it was mainly mental fatigue. Han Fanming asked him what he was thinking, he couldn¡¯t answer because he didn¡¯t know, his mind was a bit confused. There were times when he looked at the Internet and felt that he didn¡¯t have the talent to be an actor, he wanted to try singing, but when his new song came out, the response was mediocre, it was a bit of a blow. Doing business like his father? He really didn¡¯t like those kinds of social occasions. After driving around the apartment, Brother Liu turned the car around and headed for the house in the suburbs. With the news of Deng Xuanhan¡¯s su!cide in the limelight, there were still reporters stationed near Lu Wenxi¡¯s residence, and a large number of fans gathered nearby. The last time Lu Wenxi¡¯s car went in through the entrance, someone smashed the car with an egg, and then his fans fought with the anti fan who threw the egg, the scene was a spectacle. It was better to avoid it, so Lu Wenxi intended to hide again. If one more egg was thrown at him, he would get out of the car and go fight, and then the public opinion would be even more terrible. When they arrived at Lu Wenxi¡¯s house in the suburbs, Yin Hanwei asked, ¡°Boss, do you need any food sent to you?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t want to eat.¡± ¡°You haven¡¯t eaten all day.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay, there are apples in the room.¡± Yin Hanwei hesitated for a moment then he tried to comfort Lu Wenxi: ¡°Actually, boss, you don¡¯t need to pay too much attention to that old guy¡¯s words, a group actor has a salary of a few tens of thousands at most, to criticize a lead actor with a million-dollar salary, that doesn¡¯t even need to be taken seriously.¡± ¡°I already know, you can go.¡± He immediately remembered something, ¡°Transfer 500,000 to Sister Xia, tell her that the year-end bonus is being paid in advance.¡± This money, which was to compensate Sister Xia for her salary, was also considered an apology. ¡°Well, I also have to go meet Sister Xia to sort things out, during this period, I¡¯ll keep an eye on things and find you another assistant.¡± ¡°Mm.¡± ¡°Also, don¡¯t eat indiscriminately to relieve stress, we cleaned up the table.¡± ¡°¡­¡­¡± Lu Wenxi looked at Yin Hanwei, a little puzzled, he wanted to ask, but Yin Hanwei had already left. After everyone else left, Lu Wenxi sank down on the sofa for a while, then stood up, entered the gym and started working out, which lasted from 1pm until after 4pm. After catching his breath, he walked to the dining room, poured himself a glass of water, and waited until his sweat was almost dried and the water was almost warm, then he drank it all. The whole house was silent yet he vaguely heard the sound of the wind. Yes, in the room without open windows and air conditioning, he heard the sound of the wind. He looked around suspiciously, but saw nothing unusual, and he didn¡¯t care, so he turned on the floor sweeper, and went to take a shower. After eating an apple, he went straight into the bedroom and went to sleep. Lu Wenxi was woken up by hunger, his stomach grumbled uncomfortably. As he laid on the bed, he stared at the ceiling, then took out his phone to look at the time, it was only 9 o¡¯clock in the evening. He put the phone back under the pillow, he hesitated for a bit before he took it out. Turning the screen on, the light from the phone illuminated the bedroom, then he turned his head and looked over at the bed. The curtains were covered, and the only light in the room was from the phone, so there couldn¡¯t have been any other shadows, but he distinctly saw a figure crouched beside his bed, with two hands on the side of the bed and its chin was on the back of its hand, looking straight at him. It was just a black shadow, like the black shadow of a suspect in Detective Conan, it didn¡¯t have eyes, but he was able to determine that the blurred black shadow was looking at him. Afraid, he felt a chill go down his back, his body instantly stiffened, he didn¡¯t dare move. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, it was almost echoing through his eardrums, his eyelids seemed like it was beating with his heart. There was nothing around him, but he felt surrounded by an evil spirit. Strange things were happening one after another, he could no remain longer calm ¡­¡­ He remembered what the young man said again, and then suddenly had a guess. An evil spirit rang his doorbell, he couldn¡¯t see the evil spirit, so the visual intercom didn¡¯t show anything, as a result, when he opened the door to look out, he may have really let something in, that cold wind, maybe it was the evil spirit that came in. After that, the little Taoist priest who chased the evil spirit came after him and tried to drive the evil spirit away, but he was driven away by him. Stunned, he subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva, in order to show his courage and disdain for the black shadow, he slowly raised his right hand and raised his middle finger towards the black shadow. The black shadow froze. After a moment, the black shadow suddenly got up, and quickly lunged towards Lu Wenxi. CH 4 Posted on February 24, 2022by UntamedS ¡°F*uck!¡± Lu Wenxi shouted out, he was so scared that his body leaned back and fell from the bed, then he was about to crawl towards the door, only to be tangled in the quilt on his body. At this moment, his tears were going to come out, if there was a camera next to him, it would certainly capture his almost distorted expression. Struggling to break free from the quilt, he began to mutter: ¡°Fu ¡­ Fu ¡­ What about the sweeping robot!¡± The sweeping robot, after turning on the switch, it always moved by itself. If he didn¡¯t pay attention to it a little, it would wander to other places. Now that Lu Wenxi wanted to find it, it disappeared. When he didn¡¯t want to see it, it hung in front of Lu Wenxi, either stuck in the corner or in his slippers. Now ¡­ he really didn¡¯t know where it went. What was that thing then? Lu Wenxi untangled himself from the quilt and moved around the house looking for the sweeping robot, as he turned back, he saw that the black shadow also followed him out, it was holding the door, looking in his direction. When he couldn¡¯t find the sweeping robot, he touched his body and started to feel remorseful again. When he screamed in fear, he threw his phone away, the dark shadow stood in the bedroom door, blocking the way back, even if he wanted to go back and get his phone to call for help, he couldn¡¯t. He began to think, should he ignore it and continue to look for the floor sweeper, or simply rush out the door to escape? Just as he hesitated, his hand slapped on the wall, turning on the light, and he once again looked in the direction of the dark shadow, and found that in the light, the dark shadow was much lighter, though he could still see a blurred shadow. He didn¡¯t move and the dark shadow didn¡¯t move, they were relatively still for a harmonious 10 seconds. ¡°You¡¯re Deng Xuanhan?¡± Lu Wenxi finally was able to calm down a little, after exhaling, he looked around the house, trying to find the sweeping robot. In fact, he was considered calm at this point because he felt that he had something that could save his life, and he could also run for his life. If he was caught by the ghost and he really couldn¡¯t find anything that could save his life, he couldn¡¯t pick up a stone and throw it at it either. So he decided to find the amulet and destroy the ghost, if it didn¡¯t work, at least his death wouldn¡¯t be so wimpy. Another thing was, he remembered that ghosts needed to ring the doorbell before they entered the house, he opened the door, so the ghost came in. This allowed him to consider that these ghosts might not be able to pass through the solid objects, if he chose to run, he¡¯d look for opportunities to lock the ghost in a sealed environment, which might also stall for time. At this time, the sweeping robot hit the wall in the fitness room for a while and came out slowly, Lu Wenxi immediately saw that the talisman was still on top of the sweeping robot. He hurriedly ran over and picked up the seal, and when he looked up, the black shadow was already in front of him and blew a gust of wind, seemingly trying to blow the seal away. How would Lu Wenxi let air blow away his saving grace? As he firmly grabbed it, he saw the black shadow try to hide, he quickly raised his hand to the black shadow¡¯s body and pressed. His hand passed through the black shadow, but the charm seal didn¡¯t, it steadily stuck to the black shadow¡¯s body. The black shadow began to struggle after getting stuck, and it seemed to be very uncomfortable, it stumbled and fell down, rolling on the ground. After the seal was affixed to the black shadow, it began to burn, and the flame was actually blue, the quiet room looked eerie until it burned out. He didn¡¯t stay idle, he backed up to the door and touched the pocket of his trouser, but the elevator card wasn¡¯t there, it was probably in his jacket, the jacket was on the sofa and he wasn¡¯t ready to go past the dark shadow to get the elevator card. He quickly took the key from the entrance, and opened the door. He was about to go down the stairs when he looked up and saw black shadows in the corridor. There was a wolf in front and a tiger at the back. Was he such a bad actor that ghosts were grouping up to abuse him? After a moment¡¯s hesitation, he opened the door and went back to the house, it would be better to deal with the half-dead one at home. After entering the house, he went directly into the dining room, pulled the sliding door, looked around to make sure there were no other black shadows, breathed a sigh of relief, then he stood in front of the sliding glass door, looking at the black shadow huddled up in the living room, it looked like it was in a dying state. Then he turned back, took an apple from the dining room, washed it and started eating. He was so hungry, he had only eaten an apple all day, yet he was able to run through brute force alone. Sitting in the dining room, he suddenly realized that yesterday¡¯s chair was most likely dragged out by the black shadow. It could touch that ¡­¡­ but it still couldn¡¯t open the door? During that live broadcast, it was also the black shadow that opened the cloakroon door? Thinking of this, he got up and locked the sliding door again, then he sat back in the dining room and continued to eat apples. When he suddenly saw a ghost squatting next to his bed, Lu Wenxi was really frightened. Now, he was able to calm down, especially after seeing that the ghost was actually so weak, he wasn¡¯t that scared. He habitually crossed his legs and placed an arm on the dining table, thinking about what to do next. The ghost had been in his house for two days and didn¡¯t seem harmful to him, so was it not aggressive? Should he go back to his room, take his cell phone and call Yin Hanwei to come? He was still thinking of what to do when he heard a knock on the door. Lu Wenxi suddenly realized that it might be the little Taoist priest who came before, so as he nibbled on an apple, he opened the glass door of the kitchen and passed the dark figure lying in the living room that hadn¡¯t moved, then pressed on the visual intercom, as he saw the figure of the little Taoist priest, he quickly opened the door. After opening the door, he noted that the little Taoist was panting, well it would be strange if he didn¡¯t pant after climbing the stairs to the 22nd floor. ¡°Okay, take it with you.¡± Lu Wenxi pointed to the living room and said, ¡°There are other ones in the corridor. Please clear all the ghosts in this area.¡± The youth entered the house and stood in the doorway then he looked at Lu Wenxi suspiciously, his eyebrows knitted slightly, ¡°You can see it?¡± ¡°You can¡¯t see?¡± ¡°If your yin and yang eyes aren¡¯t opened, it¡¯s impossible to see them.¡± Lu Wenxi was also a little surprised, he pointed to the black shadow in the room, ¡°It is that black shadow, can¡¯t you see it?¡± The little priest looked into the living room, looked around the room, and then once again looked at Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi was also looking at the teenager, meeting the youth¡¯s gaze made him very uncomfortable As the teenager stepped into the room, he said, ¡°Sorry to offend.¡± Then he held up the fengshui compass, entered the living room and followed the compass display, then he stood less than a step in front of the black shadow, and then asked Lu Wenxi: ¡°Here, right?¡± This time Lu Wenxi also realized that something was wrong: ¡°You really can¡¯t see? Aren¡¯t you a Taoist priest?¡± The young man spoke in an unperturbed tone, ¡°People and ghosts have different auras, so people can see people, ghosts can see ghosts, and if people can see ghosts, then they are not far from death.¡± ¡°What do you mean?¡± ¡°Last time I came, I noticed that you were closer to death, I predicted that you wouldn¡¯t live long. Now, you can actually see the ghosts, proving that the death aura in your body is getting heavier.¡± ¡°Death Aura? What does that mean?¡± Lu Wenxi pursued his lips, his response made him feel strange. No one could accept suddenly being told that they wouldn¡¯t live long. The young man put the compass back in his backpack, the backpack seemed very old, the zipper wasn¡¯t very sensitive, so the teenager struggled with it for a while. Lu Wenxi also noticed that the bottom of the backpack seemed patched, it definitely wasn¡¯t the bag¡¯s natural state. Placing the compass aside, his hands started moving, his fingers were flexible, and the strange gestures were very continuous, but he looked quite handsome. ¡°Naruto?¡± Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t help but ask. He ignored him and finished his hand gestures, then he placed his fingers in front of his eyes and quietly muttered: ¡°Open.¡± Lu Wenxi leaned against the wall, hands around his chest as he looked at the teenager in the middle, then he heard the teenager speak: ¡°Why are you crying?¡± Crying? Lu Wenxi was sure he wasn¡¯t crying. Was it possible that the ghost was crying? The teenager didn¡¯t get a response, he turned his head and looked at Lu Wenxi: ¡°What did you do to her?¡± ¡°What did I do to it?!¡± Lu Wenxi thought their world views were extremely different, a ghost came to him and scared him, but the results looked as if he bullied the ghost, he quickly responded with displeasure: ¡°I woke up from sleep and saw this thing squatting by my bed staring straight at me, I gave it a middle finger, it pounced, I ran out and put the talisman you gave me on it. ¡± Lu Wenxi raised his middle finger to the teenager: ¡°Just this gesture.¡± ¡°Does this gesture have any special meaning?¡± The teenager asked particularly serious, as if he really didn¡¯t know the meaning of a middle finger. ¡°Ah ¡­¡­ is ¡­¡­ it means I love you.¡± Lu Wenxi hesitated to answer, obviously joking, who would confess to a ghostly shadow? But the teenager believed h9m. ¡°She is your former lover? Since you guys are in love ¡­¡­¡± ¡°So I haven¡¯t even had a lover, how did my lover die?¡± Lu Wenxi felt that his question was ridiculous, however, he quickly responded, ¡°A female ghost? Is she Deng Xuanhan?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± ¡°You don¡¯t know Deng Xuanhan? The former film queen ah!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know her.¡± ¡°Do you know me?¡± ¡°We met yesterday.¡± Lu Wenxi was kind of sure that this teenager didn¡¯t know him at all, which gave him a sense of frustration. At this time, he looked at the black shadow again, then he asked Lu Wenxi again, ¡°You can¡¯t hear her speak?¡± ¡°I can¡¯t.¡± ¡°Then talk among yourselves, she seems to know you.¡± The teenager said, walking towards Lu Wenxi. After standing face to face, Lu Wenxi found that the two of them were about the same height and had similar figures, only their temperament was completely different. If Lu Wenxi was a gangster, then the teenager was a gentleman, but he also a mysterious aura. As Lu Wenxi sized up the teenager, the teenager lifted his hand towards his brow. The temperature of the teenager¡¯s fingertips was cool, but it made his heart swell. Immediately after, Lu Wenxi heard the sound of a young girl crying, seriously, looking at this black shadow and hearing the sound of a young girl crying was bizarre. ¡°Can you hear her now?¡± The teenager asked him. ¡°I can.¡± He replied. The teenager gave way and let Lu Wenxi talk to the ghost himself ¡°Only a quarter of an hour.¡± ¡°A quarter of an hour is ¡­¡­ fifteen minutes, right?¡± ¡°Yes.¡± This was really a new experience, he was about to ¡­¡­ chat with a ghost? ¡°You ¡­¡­¡± Lu Wenxi was stuck for a long time before saying, ¡°Are you Deng Xuanhan? The voice isn¡¯t alike ah.¡± ¡°No, I am Vesi ¡­¡­ oooh ¡­¡­ Deng Xuanhan left this morning, I am your fan ¡­¡­ I ¡­¡­ saying your name, mouth ¡­¡­ mouth keep the shape of a smile ¡­¡­¡± the ghost spoke while crying. The amount of information, was a little big ah ¡­¡­ One, the fuzzy black shadow lying here, was his fan, and she also said the fans¡¯ favorite slogan. Two, Deng Xuanhan really came, but left in the morning, indicating that there were two ghosts in his house yesterday. Three, he bullied the ghost into tears. ¡°You¡¯re a new ghost?¡± Lu Wenxi felt her name was especially interesting, now that the fear was gone, he didn¡¯t think there was much differences between a ghost and a human. ¡°I just became a ghost¡­¡­ oooh ¡­¡­ I didn¡¯t expect to scare you, when I noticed that you could see me, I immediately lost control and wanted to pounce on you, I¡­ ¡­before ¡­¡­ didn¡¯t know you could see me. I was wrong ¡­¡­ Boss Lu, forgive me ¡­¡­¡± ¡°Come on, don¡¯t cry, talk properly.¡± Lu Wenxi felt much lighter, he walked to the coffee table and reached for something before he stopped to ask, ¡°Do you need tissues?¡± ¡°There¡¯s no need, my obsession isn¡¯t strong, so I can¡¯t touch it.¡± This sentence seemed to be some kind of hint, but Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t care, he sat on the sofa and patted the side, ¡°Come sit.¡± The dark shadow seemed moved for a moment, then she sat up and asked, ¡°May I?¡± ¡°No nonsense, hurry up.¡± ¡°Mmm!¡± The black shadow nodded vigorously, then her head fell off, she hastily picked it up, pressed it on top of her next, then with a good and obedient expression, she went to sit next to Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi held his forehead with one hand, a little shocked by the scene just now, but he quickly moved on. ¡°Don¡¯t cry, tell us what is going on.¡± Lu Wenxi pretended to be calm. ¡°Okay.¡± The young female ghost gradually stopped crying, and formally spoke, ¡°I only started to follow you the day before yesterday, I was waiting in front of your company, then I entered your nanny car, and then came to this house. Last night, it was after you were disturbed by the doorbell, Deng Xuanhan came in, she seemed to carry resentment and had signs of becoming an evil spirit, she wasn¡¯t quite in control of herself.¡± ¡°So Deng Xuanhan did come in? Is she different from you?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right, generally after death, the soul will remain on earth for 3 years, some souls will stay for a while, some go directly to reincarnation. The later it is, the more unstable the soul is, the more likely it is to become an evil spirit, and after 3 years, it becomes completely and utterly evil. I heard that ordinary souls who stay for a long time will experience the feeling of their souls being burned, the average soul can¡¯t support it, and after two years it starts to be hard to bear, thus choosing to reincarnate. ¡°What about you?¡± Lu Wenxi asked as he looked at the blurred shadow. ¡°I¡¯ve been dead for more than 1 year, I just want to stay for a while longer, then go to reincarnation, I want to reincarnate with no regrets, so I came to be your personal ghost.¡± Lu Wenxi accepted this without difficulty, and moved on: ¡°Last night, the open door and the dining room table chairs were caused by you?¡± ¡°Not me, it was Deng Xuanhan, a normal soul can touch earthly things, but we can¡¯t move it, we can be trapped by earthly things, when you closed the door, we were locked in.¡± ¡°Didn¡¯t you say that ¡­¡­ ghosts can walk through walls?¡± ¡°If you think about it, if we can go through the wall, can I be on the 22nd floor? I¡¯d easily fall downstairs. Also, if ghosts were so powerful, would the mortal world be so peaceful?¡± ¡°How are you and Deng Xuanhan different?¡± ¡°She must have died with hate, so once she died, she entered the state of half evil spirit, half soul, otherwise that little Taoist priest wouldn¡¯t catch her.¡± Lu Wenxi turned to look at the teenager and saw the teenager quietly standing aside as he waited, he was staring at the sweeping robot that was moving not far away. He didn¡¯t know if it was because the teenager¡¯s temperament was too unique, or if it was because he thought he was handsome, Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t help looking at him a few more times. Seemingly aware that Lu Wenxi was looking at him, the teenager turned to look at him, and he subconsciously avoided his gaze. But after he looked away, the teenager¡¯s gaze didn¡¯t move away from his body, making him uncomfortable all over. ¡°Let¡¯s continue.¡± Lu Wenxi said to the teenage ghost, ¡°Deng Xuanhan last night ¡­¡­¡± ¡°She seemed to be trying to shut herself from hurting people, so she wanted to enter the cloakroom, but then she didn¡¯t walk in and entered a blurred state of consciousness. After that she had thought of hurting you, I fought with her, in the kitchen, she hit the chair.¡± ¡°So you even protected me?¡± ¡°It¡¯s mot worth mentioning, I¡¯m a true fan, heh heh heh.¡± The young female ghost laughed shyly. Lu Wenxi nodded, he didn¡¯t understand why Deng Xuanhan came to him, they weren¡¯t familiar, and they had no grievances or similar interests, he frowned slightly as he thought about it. ¡°Boss, do you have a girlfriend?¡± The young ghost suddenly began to chat with Lu Wenxi. ¡°No.¡± ¡°Then what type of girl do you like?¡± ¡°Quiet and less problematic.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± ¡°You peeked at me when I was bathing, right?¡± Lu Wenxi had been wanting to ask this question since just now. The voice of the young female ghost suddenly disappeared, making Lu Wenxi suspect that it was true, after a while, the young ghost spoke again: ¡°I looked at it¡­¡­ before, the door was open ah ¡­¡­¡± ¡°Your reason is quite good, why didn¡¯t you shut the bathroom door?£¡¡± Lu Wenxi was a little angry. No matter who it was, knowing that they were peeked at while they bathed, they wouldn¡¯t be in a good mood, the fact that he didn¡¯t punch the ghost now showed his great mental state. ¡°Boss I was wrong!¡± ¡°You still know that I am your boss! Then you should know what temper your boss has, right?¡± ¡°Boss, you don¡¯t know, other stars are surrounded by a group of private ghosts, but you have less around. You usually have a purple gold aura, so getting close to you makes ghosts uncomfortable, that¡¯s why followed you, I accidentally found that you suddenly had a death aura recently, that¡¯s why I bravely followed you.¡± Lu Wenxi heard the word ¡°death¡± again, he frowned and asked: ¡°Tell me about this death thing.¡± The young man that had been staring at the sweeping robot, heard him and looked up at a person and a ghost in the living room not far away. CH 5 ¡°I always thought it was strange too!¡± The young female ghost immediately said something about the death aura on Lu Wenxi, ¡°According to reason, with so much death aura, you should have died long ago, yet you are still alive and well.¡± ¡°In your opinion, I should be dead?¡± Lu Wenxi pursued. ¡°Yes, of course the living have energy, the yang energy on newborn babies are lighter, so they can see us, when they get a little older, they stop seeing us. Only people who have been sick for a long time, or people who are injured and dying, will have this aura that¡¯s on you. After the death aura gets too thick, it¡¯s the end.¡± ¡°I was fine a few days ago, what changed in the past few days?¡± ¡°Well, originally it was the purple and gold aura, only few people in the world have this aura, so you looked so handsome that I couldn¡¯t wait to cross in front of you to ask for a hug. But all of a sudden, really all of a sudden, the purple and gold aura turned to a death aura. Two days ago it was quite little, today ¡­¡­ ¡°The ghost pointed to Lu Wenxi¡¯s body,¡± you can see me, that means the death aura has increased, you¡¯re almost the same as a ghost.¡± Originally when Lu Wenxi heard the man say he¡¯d die soon, his heartbeat increased by seven to eight points, now it was ¡°thumping¡±, the bad feeling was getting stronger. If he had a major disease, it would be reasonable, or if he was suddenly attacked, he may accept this statement. But he was now very healthy, there was nothing wrong with him, except for his diet, there was really nothing else. If it was really because of the weight control, it should be a lack of nutrition, it hadn¡¯t reached the point of death ah! ¡°Why is it like this?¡± Lu Wenxi was puzzled. ¡°I don¡¯t know, I¡¯ve been dead for more than 1 year, it¡¯s my first time seeing such a situation.¡± The young ghost replied. Lu Wenxi rubbed his brow and tried to calm himself down. What would happen if a person suddenly got a prophecy of his own death? Anyway, Lu Wenxi was baffled. First, he saw a ghost, and now he was told he was going to die, Lu Wenxi¡¯s brain immediately became mush, but even though he realised that his time might soon be up, Lu Wenxi still immediately spoke: ¡°Even if you¡¯re dead, I have to tell you, you¡¯re wrong you know? I haven¡¯t come to this house for a long time, and I almost didn¡¯t come back today, so wouldn¡¯t you have been stuck here for a long time? Why did you die and return to chase stars? Can¡¯t you go see your parents? ¡° ¡°It¡¯s hard to see them sad because I died, I don¡¯t want to go back, so I found something else to do.¡± Lu Wenxi had never experienced this feeling, he hesitated for a moment, then he apologised: ¡°Sorry, I was wrong, but you still have to leave my house later.¡± ¡°Then can you swipe your card and send me down with the elevator? Even as a ghost, going down the stairs is quite tiring.¡± ¡°You¡¯re a ghost and you still care about that? Why didn¡¯t you get tired of watching me shower?¡± The ghost was speechless. After a moment¡¯s hesitation, she got up and walked towards the door, taking one step and three steps back. She couldn¡¯t help but say as she stood in front of the door, ¡°Boss, don¡¯t be upset, I think you¡¯re much better than the rumours.¡± ¡°The rumours that I swear, have a bad temper, and have poor acting skills are true.¡± ¡°But it¡¯s actually quite cute, and I like you anyway.¡± ¡°Okay, got it.¡± Lu Wenxi said and stood up, walked to the door and opened it, ¡°Bye bye.¡± ¡°Bye boss.¡± After saying this, she quickly went to Lu Wenxi¡¯s side and seemed to want to give Lu Wenxi a kiss on the cheek, but she was afraid that her body would touch Lu Wenxi and make him feel uncomfortable, so she held back and retreated, and finally left Lu Wenxi¡¯s house. After Lu Wenxi closed the door, he pinched his brow, then stood next to the man and asked, ¡°Is it painful to have your kind of talisman on a ghost?¡± The man turned his head to look at Lu Wenxi, he seemed quite surprised, he had thought Lu Wenxi would be more concerned about the matter of his body¡¯s death aura, but the first question was actually this. ¡°I can¡¯t answer that.¡± ¡°Why?¡± ¡°I haven¡¯t died, nor have I been hit by it, so I can¡¯t answer.¡± ¡± ¡­¡­ I guess it¡¯s quite hard ¡­¡­¡± Lu Wenxi felt a little self-condemnation, the other was after all his fan, she also protected him. He actually let her roll all over the ground, his heart was uncomfortable for a while and that emotion also showed on his face, the other man saw it clearly. ¡°Do you know the reason why I have a death aura?¡± Lu Wenxi lifted his arm, as if he also wanted to see the death aura on his body, but saw nothing. The young man¡¯s eyes was fixed on Lu Wenxi¡¯s arm before he answered, ¡°Do you have any major illnesses?¡± Lu Wenxi thought carefully and asked, ¡°Do haemorrhoids count?¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t.¡± ¡°Then no.¡± After thinking about it, he hurriedly stressed again, ¡°Don¡¯t tell anyone.¡± ¡°What?¡± ¡°It¡¯s ¡­¡­ haemorrhoids.¡± ¡°Can I get anything out of telling anyone?¡± ¡°I also don¡¯t know if this kind of news can be reported by the media.¡± The atmosphere was awkward for a moment. Lu Wenxi was born gay, he realised it himself from the time he understood it and was a bottom. At first he didn¡¯t panic, nor did he care much, growing up in a place that had a group of rich kids who were more playful, there were really some gay and bisexual people, there wasn¡¯t much discrimination, and acceptance was very high. But he hadn¡¯t been open about his preferences, nor had he been in love. Mainly, he tried to research and found that many were wandering all over the place. It was rare to find an attacker. It was really ¡­ Everyone was a fellow ¡°0¡±. [TN: Attacker ¡ª Top, 0 ¡ª- Bottom.] He didn¡¯t want to come out. He was afraid that a group of bottoms would line up to ask him out, and then they would be disappointed to find that he was also a bottom. A 184 cm tall male, who was slender but also had pectoral muscles, abdominal muscles, biceps and a very good body was a 0 ¡­¡­ A number ¡­¡­0 with haemorrhoids ¡­¡­ This was also the reason why Lu Wenxi was still single even though he was extremely handsome. The man raised his hand and put it on Lu Wenxi¡¯s wrist, pinching the pulse. After Lu Wenxi was touched by cold fingers, he subconsciously wanted to withdraw his hand, but was pinched, then he noted that the teenager seemed to be checking his pulse, he quietly continued to raise his hand and wait. After a while, the teenager let go of Lu Wenxi¡¯s hand, came closer, raised his hand and pinched his lower eyelid. The man was looking at his eyes, but he was staring at his face. The distance was so close, he was able to see that the teenager¡¯s skin was indeed delicate, all natural collagen, not at all something an injection could do. His cold expression looked very stylish, he was curious what this face would look like if it smiled. Would it be handsome? Or cute? ¡°Open your mouth.¡± ¡°Want to kiss?¡± Lu Wenxi asked. The man raised his eyes and looked at Lu Wenxi, he didn¡¯t seem to find the joke funny, nor was he angry, he just looked at him indifferently for a moment and replied, ¡°I need to check your tongue.¡± ¡°Oh.¡± Lu Wenxi responded, then he opened his mouth and stretched out his tongue for him. After surveying it, the teenager signalled that he could close it: ¡°Except for a little anaemia, there is nothing wrong with your body.¡± ¡°You know the art of healing?¡± ¡°When I was a child, my family elders taught me, and I study Chinese medicine in university.¡± The teenager replied. Young Taoist priest. University student. Lu Wenxi felt that these two identities were a bit incongruous, but he was more concerned about other things: ¡°You must be really skilled, right?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± The teenager replied. ¡°How old are you?¡± ¡°Virtually twenty.¡± ¡°Oh, nineteen?¡± ¡°No, eighteen years old.¡± ¡°So you added two years ¡­¡­ you must be a Capricorn, right?¡± The teenager stared at Lu Wenxi, hesitated for a moment and remained silent. Liu Wenxi laughed, he wasn¡¯t reserved when he saw a handsome man. Fortunately, he was an adult, otherwise he would feel guilty. ¡°Give me your birth date and eight characters.¡± The teenager said, then he took out a book from his bag, looked around, and finally entered the dining room, put the book on the table, and took out a brush from his bag, as well as a bottle of ink, he opened the lid and looked at Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi quickly said his birth date, followed by an additional sentence: ¡°I am five years older than you, and I¡¯m a Scorpio.¡± The young man ignored that and began to deduce his fortune. Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t bother, he just watched the teenager writing those things he couldn¡¯t understand. The teenager obviously didn¡¯t have a particularly flashy costume, but as he wrote, he naturally had a refined temperament, some people were born with this kind of aura, the teenager could be considered one of the best he had seen. It was also the first time Lu Wenxi felt that a person with a brush, writing a few words, could actually look so attractive. ¡°I never asked, what is your name?¡± Lu Wenxi asked the teenager. ¡°Xu Chen.¡± ¡°Oh, quite nice.¡± Unlike Lu Wenxi, which was so awkward, ¡°Did you find anything?¡± ¡°You, although destined to have no children, are also considered lucky. The person who can have the purple gold aura, in ancient times, wasn¡¯t only the emperor, it could also be a nobleman. By definition, you will live to the end of your life and should not die young.¡± Xu Chen put down his pen and looked at Lu Wenxi. Hearing ¡°destined to have no children¡±, Lu Wenxi¡¯s heart wavered for a moment, but he still maintained his composure. ¡°Is there more?¡± He asked. ¡°You are an unconventional person, but you are suspicious and smart.¡± Xu Chen looked at Lu Wenxi frankly, then continued in that cold tone, ¡°The way you look at me is very mocking, the same as yesterday.¡± Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t help but laugh, he pulled out a chair and sat opposite Xu Chen then he confessed his thoughts: ¡°Yes, I¡¯ve been wondering, is it you and that ghost want to scam me? First you brought her, put her in my house, then made as much noise as possible, so that I¡¯d find out, then you¡¯d come over here to heroically save ¡­¡­ then you¡¯d tell me that I won¡¯t live a long life, I¡¯d take out a large sum of money for you to help me resolve it.¡± As Xu Chen listened, he surprisingly showed no mood swings, he just began to pack his things. Lu Wenxi watched his movements and didn¡¯t say anything, keeping a smile on his face and still with a playful look in his eyes, as if he was looking at a small liar, waiting for the small liar to confess. ¡°Before you die, you will continue to see ghosts and monsters, ordinary spirits will not hurt you, and you can¡¯t fight the really evil spirits, so take it easy.¡± Xu Chen finished packing and put his things back in the bag. ¡°You won¡¯t defend yourself?¡± ¡°After all, in your opinion, your idea is right, which is easier to accept than the news that you are dying soon.¡± ¡°Then can you tell me why I would suddenly be covered in death aura without any symptoms?¡± Xu Chen seemed a little hesitant, he looked back at Lu Wenxi, hesitated for a moment before answering, ¡°Actually, I¡¯m too lazy to explain.¡± ¡°Ha?!¡± ¡°Explaining to people who don¡¯t understand always takes more words, not to mention that you don¡¯t trust me.¡± Xu Chen still had his own personality, being looked at with such mocking eyes was uncomfortable. But Xu Chen had his own connotation, he wouldn¡¯t lose his temper, he just wanted to leave, but Lu Wenxi didn¡¯t relent. Liu Wenxi always knew that he had money, and he was really suspicious. When someone approached him and befriended him, he had to think about whether the other was up to something. Yesterday, he was smart enough to open a live broadcast, trying to promote his new song through popularity. He really didn¡¯t know what would happen in the later period if Deng Xuanhan didn¡¯t die and nothing else took away the attention of the masses. The two people just stalled for a while, Xu Chen adjusted his posture and patiently said: ¡°The world is big, there are all kinds of evil methods, if someone uses your birth date and wants to steal your fortune, they can also cause you to become like this now. In that case, you can see who suddenly has good fortune when your fortune is down and who knows your birth date.¡± ¡°Steal fortune?¡± ¡°After all, the Purple Gold Aura is the envy of many people, and those who have it usually have very good luck.¡± Lu Wenxi suddenly remembered his encounter in the past few days, it really was ¡­¡­ hard to say. Previously there were others whose poor acting skills were criticised, but for him to be criticised to this extent, there was really no one before or after, it was comparable to a first-line star havig a cheating scandal. ¡°Is that so?¡± Lu Wenxi muttered. ¡°Also, if it¡¯s someone who has a grudge against you, or against your family, they can also do the trick, such as taking one of your hairs. If it is against your family, it will exterminate your family. If it¡¯s extinction, it¡¯ll start with the younger generation first, and after your death, your elders will also suffer until the whole family is exterminated.¡± ¡°My family has a single lineage of three generations.¡± ¡°Then think about it, who hates you so much that they are willing to use the method of damaging yin and virtue to cause your death.¡± Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t help but laugh mockingly: ¡°There are too many people who hate me, those fans who have cursed me to death, maybe our country¡¯s population will have to plummet by more than 100,000 people.¡± ¡°You are quite popular.¡± This really didn¡¯t sound like a compliment. ¡°In our line of work, it is just like this, being watched by many people, how many people hate you, how many people like you. If there aren¡¯t even people who hate you, it¡¯s a real fail.¡± ¡°Oh, I¡¯m done explaining.¡± Xu Chen finished, turned his head and walked away, ignoring Lu Wenxi¡¯s sentiments. Lu Wenxi was quite calm, but when he saw Xu Chen was leaving, he suddenly panicked and immediately called out, ¡°Wait a minute.¡± Xu Chen ignored him, after all, he had been continuously insulted, as a self-respecting teenager, how could he be willing to stay? Lu Wenxi immediately stood up and chased him to the door, reaching out to hold Xu Chen¡¯s wrist, before he could touch it, he felt the wind flick his hand away, he looked at his hand in surprise, then looked at Xu Chen. Xu Chen also stopped, looked back at him, and asked, ¡°Anything else?¡± ¡°Is it too late to apologise?¡± Lu Wenxi suddenly conceded, ¡°It doesn¡¯t matter to me, can you ¡­¡­ go with me to see my parents?¡± Lu Wenxi¡¯s attitude softened, originally he had a mocking expression, such a pitiful concession would soften most people. ¡°I have class tomorrow.¡± Xu Chen replied. ¡°Then leave me your contact information, I¡¯ll contact you when you don¡¯t have class.¡± ¡°How do you have the confidence that you can survive that many days?¡± This sentence, really stung Lu Wenxi. Looking at Xu Chen¡¯s eyes, there was a little impatience, and pity, as if he was looking at a dead person. This kind of look was too hurtful. ¡°How about you give a price, or if you have any requests, I can do whatever I can.¡± Lu Wenxi began to try to negotiate conditions, before he acted so noble, now when talking, he no longer had that aura. Suddenly, he felt that he was really smart, this kind of psychic couldn¡¯t be provoked. Even if he really came to cheat money, if he angered him, he might really do something to add trouble to his family. What was more, after what just happened, the teenager was probably a genuine Taoist. ¡°There is nothing I want.¡± Xu Chen replied. ¡°How about this, I¡¯ll give you half a million, take a leave of absence, before I die, accompany me to see my parents, can you?¡± Lu Wenxi asked without giving up, he was beginning to accept that he would die. ¡°No.¡± ¡°Then three million? It can¡¯t be more.¡± ¡°I won¡¯t go.¡± ¡°F*ck ¡­¡­ is five million okay?¡± Xu Chen seemed to dislike this kind of bargaining, he turned his head to leave, the result was that Lu Wenxi became even more anxious, he followed behind Xu Chen, all the way to the corridor, before yelling: ¡°Don¡¯t go, 20 million, okay? Before I die, come help me drive away ghosts from time to time, and by the way, visit my parents, I will give you 20 million!¡± Xu Chen¡¯s footsteps paused, then he stopped and looked back at Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi immediately held his breath, he was so nervous that he didn¡¯t dare to swallow, and then he heard Xu Chen ask: ¡°Do you need an invoice?¡± CH 6 Posted on April 22, 2022by UntamedS Lu Wenxi was shocked for a while, he couldn¡¯t say a word and his mood was a bit complicated. But Xu Chen was very serious, he kept looking straight into his eyes, his gaze was frank and unadulterated, like an ignorant little lamb, he kept waiting for his answer. In fact, Lu Wenxi had been suspicious because he noticed that when Xu Chen came for the first time, he didn¡¯t bring a bag. This time he brought a bag. Had he come to cheat him? He had guessed that he wanted to measure his eight characters, so he brought his tools? And invoice? But he didn¡¯t dare to speak, he was afraid that if Xu Chen left again, and then he found out that it was he who wrongly blamed Xu Chen, he wouldn¡¯t be able to find tears to cry. ¡°You ¡­¡­ this is quite formal.¡± Lu Wenxi sighed. ¡°I have seen teachers and uncles use it when people come to them to check the feng shui in their offices and homes.¡± [TN: feng shui (/?f????u?i/), also known as Chinese geomancy, is an ancient Chinese traditional practice which claims to use energy forces to harmonize individuals with their surrounding environment. ] Lu Wenxi had heard of this, when people built new buildings or bought houses, they always went to find people to check the feng shui. When his father bought a new building, he also looked for one of them. Even before the start of filming, they had to find one for the opening ceremony and good omen. So he understood, hesitated for a moment, then nodded. He pointed to his home and asked: ¡°Can we go back inside and talk carefully?¡± ¡°Okay.¡± After agreeing, Xu Chen added, ¡°If you need an invoice, I need a while before I can give it to you.¡± ¡°It¡¯s not necessary, I don¡¯t even know if I¡¯ll live long enough for you to give me the invoice.¡± The two went back inside, Lu Wenxi unlocked the door, and then saw the sweeping robot. He immediately moved to put it to the side. He didn¡¯t know how Yin Hanwei set it up, but just after he picked it up, the sweeper robot shouted, ¡°I¡¯m being attacked, come and protect me.¡± Lu Wenxi put it aside carelessly, pressed the switch and turned off the sweeping robot ¡°Now you¡¯re dead.¡± Xu Chen kept watching, his eyes was fixed on the sweeping robot as he followed Lu Wenxi into the house. ¡°Since you said I¡¯m not going to live long, it means I don¡¯t need protection for long, I will tell my assistant about this, and he will manage the accounts. I¡¯ll pay you a 5 million deposit first, and when I die ¡­ Fu-ck, this is fu-cking ¡­ Forget it, I¡¯ll pay you another 15 million after I die. We can make a written document, give me your card number and mobile phone number. ¡± Liu Wenxi didn¡¯t like talking about death now that there was a possibility he was going to die. Lu Wenxi walked to his room, brought out a folder from his suitcase, took out a checkbook and started to fill it out, he waited for a while, when Xu Chen didn¡¯t move, he couldn¡¯t help but look up at Xu Chen in doubt. ¡°I don¡¯t have a card and I don¡¯t have a cell phone.¡± Xu Chen replied. ¡°Then you want to take it all in cash? Will you drive a truck to get it?¡± ¡°Then can you help me pay my tuition first?¡± Lu Wenxi froze once again and sized up Xu Chen, the clothes and bag on his body were really old and presumably very cheap. Such a boy, his tuition fee hadn¡¯t been paid yet? ¡°Then why didn¡¯t you want the money I gave you yesterday?¡± He asked. ¡°That kind of money, I don¡¯t want it.¡± He realized that when he gave Xu Chen money yesterday, he was mocking him, and Xu Chen was probably disgusted and didn¡¯t want to accept it, he sighed, ¡°You¡¯re like this, yet you¡¯re still quite noble.¡± Xu Chen bit his lip and said nothing. He didn¡¯t like the prickly tone in his words. Lu Wenxi raised his hand and beckoned to Xu Chen, ¡°How do I pay the tuition? If it accepts online payment, I can transfer it now.¡± Xu Chen took out a book from his bag, flipped it open and looked at it, then he handed it to Lu Wenxi. The words were written with a ballpoint pen, it was standard block letters and it looked like it was printed letters, consistent and meticulous. There were a bunch of numbers written in the notebook, what to pay attention to when remitting money, how to fill in the remarks, and Xu Chen¡¯s student number. Lu Wenxi looked at what was written on the book, opened the app, remitted the money according to the way it was written, and then pointed to the amount of money written on it: ¡°Is it okay to pay according to this amount of money?¡± ¡°Mm.¡± Lu Wenxi finished paying and showed his phone to Xu Chen: ¡°It¡¯s done, do you have living expenses now?¡± Xu Chen didn¡¯t say anything. ¡°Did you have dinner tonight?¡± Lu Wenxi asked again. Xu Chen still didn¡¯t say anything. What a poor little Taoist ah ¡­¡­ ¡°Let¡¯s go, brother will take you to dinner.¡± Lu Wenxi put the phone into his pocket, took out his wallet from his bag, opened it and pulled out five notes and gave it to Xu Chen, ¡°I don¡¯t have much cash, so I¡¯ll give you these first.¡± Xu Chen hesitated for a moment, but still reached out to take it and put it into his pants pocket. Lu Wenxi wore his black jacket, put on a hat and a mask, his disguise was complete. The two of them walked out of the door together, he led Xu Chen to the elevator door and pressed the down button. Xu Chen stood behind Lu Wenxi, quietly watching Lu Wenxi¡¯s movements, and then noticed that the elevator door opened and Lu Wenxi walked straight in. After entering, Lu Wenxi found that Xu Chen didn¡¯t move, so he held the elevator door with his hand, ¡°Aren¡¯t you coming in?¡± ¡°What is this?¡± Xu Chen asked, pointing at the elevator. ¡°This is the ¡­¡­ elevator.¡± ¡°What¡¯s it for?¡± ¡°For going downstairs.¡± Xu Chen was puzzled for a moment, but still followed Lu Wenxi into the elevator, and just after standing firmly, the elevator door closed and then it moved. The numbers on the display changed, then the elevator doors opened again and Lu Wenxi walked out. Xu Chen followed him out and found that they had reached the 1st floor, his eyes opened wide in surprise as he surveyed the surroundings. When Lu Wenxi looked back at Xu Chen, surprisingly, Xu Chen¡¯s eyes were bright for a moment, like he had just discovered a new continent, or a young boy that saw his hero. This little Taoist ¡­¡­ had never been in an elevator, he didn¡¯t even know about it. Feeling doubtful, Lu Wenxi looked in his eyes: ¡°Were you living in a Taoist temple before? On the mountain? You just came down?¡± ¡°Well, it¡¯s my first time coming down the mountain.¡± Xu Chen answered truthfully. ¡°No wonder, but if your uncles earned money, why didn¡¯t they help you pay for your tuition?¡± Xu Chen pursed his lips, just now he still looked excited, but now he became solemn again, he stopped speaking and quietly followed behind Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi began to guess, he was afraid that his family didn¡¯t want him to go to college, so this little Taoist priest decided to find his own way. In his mind, he immediately imagined a child in the mountains, who was eager to go to school but was refused, he couldn¡¯t help feeling sorry for Xu Chen. Lu Wenxi glanced at his phone, it was already 10:47 p.m. He began to think, what other stores could be open now? Were the reporters gone? Would he be recognized if he came out like this? Then not far from the street lamp, he saw two dark shadows, one was a little taller, the other was a little shorter, obviously a man and a woman. The man had one hand supporting the street lamp, the woman was standing under the lamp, they seemed to be chatting, and then they kissed. Lu Wenxi froze, suddenly remembering that he could see ghosts, he looked around, a little farther away on the sports field, there were several black shadows playing basketball, of course, someone must have burnt a ball for a ghost, so the round ball was also a black shadow. After a moment, Lu Wenxi turned his head and asked Xu Chen: ¡°After these people die, they¡¯re allowed to fall in love?¡± Xu Chen was stunned for a moment, then he frowned, he didn¡¯t know whether he was thinking, or he didn¡¯t like the question. Just as Lu Wenxi continued to look around, Xu Chen answered, ¡°I guess it¡¯s possible.¡± ¡°Then can they snap?¡± ¡°Snapping means?¡± ¡°Making love.¡± ¡°¡­¡­¡± Xu Chen was speechless for a moment before answering, ¡°I don¡¯t know.¡± His expression wasn¡¯t very good. Lu Wenxi concluded that this one was an ascetic person. [TN: characterized by severe self-discipline and abstention from all forms of indulgence, typically for religious reasons.] Lu Wenxi put his hands into the pockets of his clothes, lowered his head and walked forward, he turned back after a while and asked Xu Chen, ¡°What do you like to eat?¡± ¡°Anything.¡± ¡°At this time of the day there are probably only a few stores open, let¡¯s go to KFC.¡± He took Xu Chen out of the neighborhood, he asked him to wait at the door, then he went into KFC to order a bunch of things, and finally ordered a rice set. When checking out, the waiter looked at Lu Wenxi several times, as if he recognized him. Lu Wenxi still looked nonchalant as he stood at the pick-up point and waited. After the waiter entered the back to take the meal out, he brought a few other waiters, they looked at Lu Wenxi, probing, there was a bold waiter, who turned her camera and acted like she was taking a selfie, in fact, she was just trying to get Lu Wenxi into the camera frame. Lu Wenxi pulled off his mask, took off the hat and faced the girl¡¯s camera, when he smiled, the girl screamed. After the photo, Lu Wenxi wore his disguise again, carried his things and walked out of the KFC. Xu Chen seemed confused as he looked at him, he asked Lu Wenxi: ¡°They can also see the death aura on you?¡± ¡°Can¡¯t be.¡± ¡°Then why were they screaming?¡± Lu Wenxi couldn¡¯t answer, he was stuck for a while, and finally chose not to speak, explaining the intricacies of stardom to someone who didn¡¯t even know what an elevator was a few moments ago, seemed very difficult, Xu Chen estimated that he wouldn¡¯t understand such things as chasing stars. On the way back, Lu Wenxi saw another swaying black shadow. In fact, after knowing that these spirits weren¡¯t harmful, Lu Wenxi wasn¡¯t too afraid, when he saw them, he remained quite calm. As a result, the black shadow seemed a bit confused, it saw Lu Wenxi and paused, and then it suddenly rushed towards Lu Wenxi. Lu Wenxi was a little surprised, he subconsciously took a step back, and heard Xu Chen speak: ¡°Offend.¡± Then, Xu Chen quickly took a step forward, pressed the back of the black shadow¡¯s head, and pressed it hard towards the ground, he was extremely fast, so fast that it seemed to be just a moment, Lu Wenxi only saw a blurred shadow and watched Xu Chen fiercely press it to the ground, the black shadow didn¡¯t resist as it fell down. Then, he saw Xu Chen take out a blank yellow paper, he threw it into the air and the yellow paper actually froze in the air. Xu Chen took the fan from behind him, unfolded the fan, the fan had complex patterns on both side. Xu Chen recited some words, and then Lu Wenxi saw a pattern on the fan floating up out of thin air, and then, it printed on the yellow paper. When Lu Wenxi looked at the scene before him, he felt that the special effects of TV dramas now seemed terrible. Before, when he saw Xu Chen with a fan, he always thought that this boy would suddenly sing ¡°Ali Ali¡± with it. As a result, this was how the fan worked? Xu Chen put the fan away, and then took the yellow paper in mid-air and stuck it to the black shadow on the ground, still in an unperturbed tone, he said a sentence that made Lu Wenxi¡¯s heart tremble: ¡°Rest in peace.¡± The black shadow gradually dissolved, turned into pieces and disappeared in the night. It seemed to be a black flame that just ignited, and that rune lit up with a blue fire, which looked a little scary in the silent night. From the beginning, to the end, it seemed to last only a breath of time. Lu Wenxi waled closer, that black shadow was just finished off by Xu Chen, and the other black shadows around, quietly shivered. ¡°Just now this ¡­¡­ is the evil spirit?¡± As he spoke, Lu Wenxi realized his voice was shaking. It happened right in front of his eyes, the shock was too much. ¡°That¡¯s right, but it¡¯s very low level, a very stupid kind.¡± Xu Chen replied, pinning the fan behind his back again. Lu Wenxi suddenly wondered if his head would have been shattered if Xu Chen had also pressed his head like that when he provoked him earlier. He subconsciously looked around, hoping that no one else saw this scene. He didn¡¯t see anyone, not even a hidden reporter¡¯s car, only then did he relax. He suddenly felt that Xu Chen¡¯s move was just like a performance show, it really shook him up. ¡°Why did it rush to me?¡± Lu Wenxi asked. ¡°You are covered in death aura, evil spirits can possess you.¡± ¡°I can be possessed?!¡± This bad news shocked him. ¡°That¡¯s right, but he won¡¯t succeed if you are strong-willed and in good health.¡± ¡°It¡¯s easy for it to succeed if I¡¯m not determined and not in good health?¡± ¡°That¡¯s right.¡± ¡°F-uck ¡­¡­¡± he hurriedly followed up, ¡°Then what should I do?¡± ¡°Sickness, injury, can lead to weakness, overwork will also do the same, also, don¡¯t overindulge in se-x, it hurts the body. And, try not to encounter evil spirits.¡± Lu Wenxi pursed his lips, suddenly feeling like he was being mocked, which made him a little uncomfortable. He turned his head to look at Xu Chen, but he still had the same blank expression. After standing there for a while, he continued walking home. He felt that his entire world changed overnight, he was surrounded by ghosts, and was walking side by side with a strange little Taoist priest. He was like a protagonist in a movie, right? If this were to be put in ancient times, wouldn¡¯t he be a hero of the chaotic world? When he got back home, Lu Wenxi gave most of the things he bought to Xu Chen, opened the rice, took out the chicken leg and gave it to Xu Chen, and ate the rice inside with a few pieces of vegetables. Xu Chen kept staring at him then he asked suspiciously, ¡°You won¡¯t eat?¡± ¡°Professional relationship, I¡¯m already ki-lling myself by eating at this time. Eating these high-calorie foods again will hurt me. You can eat.¡± Lu Wenxi replied. Xu Chen took a piece of chicken nuggets, ¡°Teacher said these foods are not healthy, I can¡¯t eat much.¡± After saying that, he took a bite, then another bite, then he took another piece. Lu Wenxi guessed that this little Taoist priest had never eaten KFC, and looking at Xu Chen¡¯s current expression, it seemed he really liked it. He thought this kid was quite interesting, he wasn¡¯t too old, but he had an old-fashioned aura. He seemed like a pure lamb, obviously very tender, but he had long claws. After casually eating a few bites of rice, he felt full and stopped eating, then he suddenly remembered something: ¡°I¡¯m dying, must I control my diet? I should indulge myself and eat something random before I die!¡± After that, I took a chicken wing and ate it. After eating it, he felt too guilty to continue eating: ¡°What¡¯s terrible is if I don¡¯t die and I indulged too much. How would I face it afterwards? Won¡¯t someone hold a photo saying that the famous star was self-indulgent and let loose, won¡¯t I be mocked? ¡° Xu Chen just gnawed on the chicken wings and stared at him, because he didn¡¯t understand the meaning of his words, he didn¡¯t answer. Lu Wenxi went to the bathroom and washed his hands, then came out and stood at the door, ¡°Where do you live?¡± ¡°Not far from here is my school.¡± ¡°Oh, how did you come yesterday?¡± ¡°The compass showed me, so I followed the hints and came here, found that the spirit had not yet turned into an evil spirit, and wanted to purify it, but she got away.¡± ¡°Then stay with me today, stay in the guest room, I can find a pajama for you to wear, we both have a similar figure.¡± Lu Wenxi said. ¡°Okay.¡± Xu Chen was still eating. After a while, Lu Wenxi brought a pajama, Xu Chen looked at it and hesitated for a while, ¡°Can I not wear it?¡± ¡°What? It doesn¡¯t look good?¡± Lu Wenxi unfolded the pajamas and showed them to Xu Chen. The pajama was white with a dark blue print style, it was very good, and was a major international brand, but the print was a woman¡¯s body, each posture was different, equally s-exy and provocative. ¡°It¡¯s immoral.¡± Xu Chen answered.
