The Villain's Mom Becomes Famous for Fortune-Telling and Gossip Ch. 54

The little white radish did a quick flip, sitting up with sparkling eyes, and nodded vigorously while holding onto Yu Yuan's fingertip.

"So, the rumors about the haunted guesthouse were also your doing?"

The tuft on the little radish's head drooped, and it sneakily glanced at Zhou Yu, who couldn't see it. It reluctantly nodded. But then, as if thinking of something, it angrily stomped its little feet, stomping on Yu Yuan's palm with tiny force, like a ticklish sensation.

Zhou Yu had a bad feeling. As he looked down, he met Yu Yuan's eyes. He stammered, "Master?"

Yu Yuan raised an eyebrow. "You've been keeping a cat at the guesthouse?"

When his master mentioned his useless cat son, Zhou Yu didn't hesitate to nod quickly. "Yes, yes."

Upon hearing this, the little white radish in Yu Yuan's palm became even angrier.

Yu Yuan listened to the little creature's continuous accusations and couldn't help but laugh. "The nearby feng shui is good, which naturally nurtured a group of little wooden demons. But since the guesthouse was built here, it disturbed their sleep. In order to drive humans away, these little wooden demons started scaring people from time to time."

As she spoke, she glanced toward the back of the house, where a small black cat with yin-yang eyes peeked out, sneaking around like a dog. When it saw Yu Yuan looking over, its cat eyes widened in shock, and it quickly darted back out of view.

Yu Yuan's smile deepened. "Your little cat isn't ordinary. It can see these little wooden demons. It's also clever, knowing that these little creatures are the ones causing trouble for the guesthouse's business. So it often sneaks out to scare and tease the little demons."

Thus, the grudge between the two sides was completely formed.

The little wooden demons had low spiritual power and were only about the size of an egg since they had just formed. They couldn't stand up to the little black cat. If Yu Yuan hadn't arrived in time, they would have had to move out.

After hearing Yu Yuan's explanation, Zhou Yu's eyes widened in disbelief, his expression matching that of the little black cat peeking from the window.

He never imagined that, after all these years of searching for supernatural events, the real supernatural incident would be right under his nose! And the little fat cat he had raised could not only see these things but was also trying to drive them away!

Yu Yuan patted the little white radish in her palm and reassured it, "Don't worry. This place will soon be turned into a Taoist temple. My ancestor has immense merit, so living here will not only be peaceful but also beneficial for your cultivation."

The little white radish, understanding, happily bounced a few steps. Then, it pressed its tiny hands together in a decent bow, jumped out of Yu Yuan's hand, and skipped out of the courtyard.

Before leaving, it made a face at the window where the little black cat was and wiggled its little behind joyfully as it hopped away.

As they left the guesthouse, the sun had already risen high into the sky. Tang Xiangbei glanced at Yu Yuan, who was resting with her eyes closed in the back seat, wanting to speak but hesitating.

Yu Yuan opened her eyes slightly and caught the curious, probing look from Tang Xiangbei.

Tang Xiangbei: "......"

Yu Yuan curled the corners of her lips into a faint smile, her voice lazy. "I don't have any master-disciple connection with you, and you're not particularly interested in metaphysics either."

At this age, young people probably just think it was cool to deal with ghosts and spirits. If we're talking about interest, it probably didn't even measure up to Zhou Yu's one-tenth.

She continued with a reminder, "Your fate is ordinary, so avoid places with heavy yin energy. When you go back, take more hot baths and get some sunlight. Don't go to those places again."

"I understand," Tang Xiangbei pressed his lips together, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

"You're thinking about why the protective talisman didn't react when you ran into the ghost wall at the abandoned school, right?"

Tang Xiangbei quickly turned his head, his surprised gaze meeting Yu Yuan's closed eyes.

"The ghost at the school meant no harm. It was just circling around to scare you off, so the protective talisman wasn't activated."

But the one called Lu Yan was a different story...

Yu Yuan silently opened her eyes, her gaze falling into the void as her fingers, tucked into her pocket, turned slightly cold. The talisman containing the powerful ghost gave off a chill.

Lu Yan had accidentally touched the ghost's taboo. If she hadn't arrived in time, Lu Yan, the precious grandson of the Lu family, might not have survived.

Tang Xiangbei instinctively clenched the protective talisman in his hand, unsure of what he was thinking.

A few minutes later, someone called him away. Zhou Yu glanced back at Yu Yuan, who was still resting with her eyes closed, and asked softly, "Master, it's almost noon. How about I take you out for a meal?"

Yu Yuan didn't refuse, her voice laced with a sense of lazy drowsiness as the warmth of the sun made her feel a little heavy. "Before eating, let's stop by the Golden Sun Elite Kindergarten next to Xinfa Building."

Kindergarten?

Zhou Yu didn't ask why, as the car was already heading toward Xinfa Building.

"Go pick up my son."

"SCREECH—"

The sudden screech of the brakes, along with the momentum pushing them forward, nearly threw Yu Yuan out of her seat if it wasn't for the seatbelt fastened around her chest.

"Master... Master..." Zhou Yu's face turned pale. He didn't have time to ask why his master was suddenly a mother and was nearly scared out of his wits by the ghostly figure on the windshield.

In front of him, a female ghost appeared on the glass—her body entirely naked, her face twisted in an agonizing expression. Her messy chestnut-colored hair hung down, half of her skull was caved in, looking like a deflated ball, with black blood and white brain matter mixed together in the hollow, her bloodshot eyes bleeding, making her look horrifying.

Yu Yuan's eyes widened slightly in surprise. "Zhang Qing?"

This ghost was familiar to her. As someone who had also been exploited by the previous manager "Sister Xin," Zhang Qing was far more pitiful than the original character.

On the first day of her crossing into this world, she had coincidentally encountered Zhang Qing's "ghost blocking the eyes" from her manager. After that, it was the death of Manager Xin.
