titude, or because of the money" He clasped his hands on the desk and said seriously: "If it's because of my attitude, I apologize. Some things happened around me, I can't help but be wary of stranger...I smiled. "Sorry, I wouldn't want to see you at all. I don't remember inviting you over. Uninvited You really have thick skin."

Qi Ke Xin sneered, "Of course it's coming. Some people even dream of climbing up to Yan Huan, without weighing their own worth, hum..."

"Nobody weighs as heavily as you do, and your skin is thicker than brick." I frowned back at her.

She hummed and said, "Yanhuan, people here don't seem to welcome me. Let's go eat somewhere else"

Lin Yanhuan frowned slightly.

I hurriedly said, "Lin Yanhuan is a guest in our family. You go eat by yourself. Don't be so shameless, it's embarrassing to watch."

No sooner had his words left his lips than a low growl came from behind the door.

Such a feral warning startled Qi Ke Xin, and she immediately saw the sharp, wild glint in Xiao Nie's eyes.

Little Nie is a beast that has achieved enlightenment through its physical body. It retains its wildness, and there's also an aura of the Immortal Realm about it, making Princess Gui within Qi Ke Xin feel a little uneasy.

She subconsciously took a step back and coquettishly said to Lin Yanhuan, "Yan Huan, look, this place even has such fierce pets. Let's change places to eat, okay If they tear my clothes, they can't even afford to pay for them."

Lin Yanhuan whispered, "Who taught you to be so rude"

"I..." Qi Ke Xin bit her lip angrily.

Little Ni saw that she wasn't going to leave, and suddenly leaped towards her, bouncing off a pillar, and pounced.

Heaven, I can't really kill her! This is under the Emperor's feet, on the edge of the Imperial City!

"Little devil!" I cried out in a hurry.

Little Xie’s teeth were all out, and when he heard me calling, he flashed his claws and grabbed at Qi Ke Xin’s chest.

Qi Ke Xin quickly retreated, avoiding being caught by Xiao Nie. She clearly looked frightened: "What kind of cat is so ferocious!"

She probably doesn't even know what a lynx is After all, the internet wasn't around a few hundred years ago.

"Look, Yan Huan, this thing is too wild—" A claw mark from the little fiend tore three holes in her dress.

I reached out my hand, and Xiao Nie jumped into my arms—it was actually very heavy!

Anything that has attained enlightenment can transform its form. Right now, it's shrunk to the size of a large cat. The weight... my brother said that holding it in his arms was like holding a big winter melon, heavy and solid.

Xiao Nie glared at Qi Ke Xin, with a ferocious look of bared teeth.

"You're the one who's wild. My cat is very well-behaved, you see how polite it is to Lin Yanhuan... As for you... Who made you so full of yourself I guess it sees you as something like a fox."

I smiled and patted Xiaonie's head.

Qi Ke Xin's eyelid twitched, I felt like she was about to explode.

She was used to commanding troops and resisting foreign invaders in her lifetime. Now, inside Qi Ke Xin's body, she had to follow the rules of the world, which must have been very suppressing.

And we turned her into ashes...Did she know about this

That shadowy figure should be the convenience store's "owner." His ancestors left behind secrets about collecting bones, and then disappeared without a trace. Over time, he returned from overseas, wanting to use this secret to achieve certain purposes.

That old rouge appeared over ten years ago. The bones here have also started absorbing the lifeblood of living people for over a decade... What does he want to use the Ghost Princess for

My brother saw that I hadn't gone in, so he came out to see what I was doing.

He went around the screen wall and saw me blocking the door, preventing Qi Ke Xin from coming in. He laughed and said: "Why don't you come in! Standing at the door is it more beautiful Who is that, dressed like a wild chicken, Lin Yanhuan, you are too unkind. My sister invited you to dinner at home, and you brought an outside woman, this is too cheap, right!"

Qikexin knew my brother was deliberately slandering people. She was about to speak when Lin Yanhuan opened his mouth and said, "Why don't you go back first today It's impolite to come uninvited."

"What are you doing! Are you going to leave me behind, Yanhuan I waited so long for you to be free..." Qi Ke Xin pressed down her anger and acted coquettishly.

Lin Yanhuan said lightly, "Yes, Yanqin is here too. I'll go home with Yanqin later."

The Ghost Princess is amazing, despite so many people chasing her, she can still stand here with a thick face.

I leaned sideways to Lin Yanhuan and said, “Please come in, Yanzhi personally cooked two extra dishes for you to try.”

Lin Yanhuan laughed and said, “Give me I thought I wasn't included.”

He stepped through the door, and my brother immediately blocked Qi Ke Xin, gruffly whispering, "Don't play games here. Getting exposed wouldn't benefit you either, would it!"

"Do you want to die Dare you destroy mine—" Qi Ke Xin suppressed her voice.

"What's yours So soft-spoken, can't hear you~~" My brother laughed and snorted coldly: "If you have the guts, speak up. If not, get out of my sight!"

The big door slammed shut with a bang, and Lin Yanhuan's two bodyguards stood guard at the entrance, leaving Qi Ke Xin standing outside.

Lin Yanhuan let out a sigh of relief, loosened his tie, and frowned: "If my actions weren't too sensitive right now, I'd really have to discipline her. She's getting more and more disobedient, she doesn't even know the occasion!"

I muttered to myself: She's toned it down quite a bit! If she were still the Ghost Princess from before, you'd have had a real headache.

"Xiao Qiao... I'm starting to think there's something wrong with her... she wasn't like this before." He smiled.

"In short, the farther away you are from her, the better. If she intends to harm you, you might not even realize you've fallen into her trap." I slammed a pair of chopsticks down in front of Lin Yanhuan.

At our house, there are no social hierarchies at mealtimes. We all sit around a large round table. Grandma eats in her room and keeps an eye on the kids while she's at it. My older brother sits at the head of the table, I sit to his left, and to my left is Lin Yanhuan.

Lin Yanhuan took the chopsticks and smiled: "This is the first time I've ever eaten something you made... Which ones are made by Yan Qin I'll eat those last."

"Huh What do you mean Are you used to saving the good stuff for last" I didn't understand what he meant.

Lin Yanhuan shook her head and said, "I'm afraid I'll spoil my taste buds and won't be able to taste other dishes."

"Brother!" Lin Yanqin was furious.

"Hahaha... My dear sister, you know me best!" My brother laughed heartily, without giving any face.

Lin Yanhuan ate politely, chewing slowly. After Dabao and Laoso finished eating and went out to cut fruit and make tea, he slightly tilted his head and looked at me: "About my aunt setting you two up... it's best to wait a month before getting involved."

"Why"

"Because things are heating up right now, it's best to wait until he's desperate before offering favors. That way, you'll get twice the results with half the effort."

"...What's making such a commotion" I frowned. "Could it be lots of ghosts"

Lin Yanhuan smiled. "The abbot of Dingguo Temple took a look at it for him and said that thing is called 'Touman'.... ordinary people can't figure it out, but you... should be able to handle this."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate! had no signal underground just a moment ago, but now all the messages and my brother's call have arrived."Hello..." I nervously answered the phone."Xiao Qiao, where have you been There's a problem at...
