Chapter 509: Do You Want to Have a Child With Me?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
After registering their marriage in the morning, Han Jun still went to work as usual in the afternoon. She went to work and Xu Qian watched the weather in a seven-story building at the end of the financial street.
This old building was the first modern-styled commercial building in Wangdong City. It had an extraordinary significance in Wangdong City. It had been standing on this street for more than 150 years. It was once the site of the Dongfang Family pawn shop.
Later on, the Dongfang Family grew bigger and bigger. The seven-story building looked too small, so they built another skyscraper and moved their headquarters.
The old building was sold to many bosses. More than 80 years ago, it was bought by another boss who made gold jewelry. But the boss of that company was a pervert. When he was fooling around with his secretary in the building, he was met by his pregnant wife.
No one knew what happened that day. In short, by the time the subordinate realized that something was off and ran to the boss’s office to check on the situation, the boss and his mistress were already lying on the ground dead. The lady boss, who was about to give birth, was hung dead by the ceiling light.
What was even more amazing was yet to come.
At that time, when the police brought the forensic doctor to the scene for investigation, they actually discovered that the child in the lady boss’s stomach was still alive. That child was finally dissected and named Qiao Qisheng.
This child was later placed in the care of a relative in Yang City. When he grew up, Qiao Qisheng personally founded a jewelry company and it was now the world-renowned jewelry brand “Crown for Love.”
Ever since the murder case happened in that old building, it had not been peaceful. In the past few decades, there had been countless companies entering this building, but some strange things had always happened. However, they were all small pranks and no lives had ever been lost.
But recently, strange things happened frequently in this building. There were even deaths. First, the lift fell for no reason, causing the five employees who took the lift to die. Two days later, there was a fire in the room for no reason and almost burned the employees who worked overnight.
The company was filled with panic and rumors. Helpless, the boss could only spend a high price to invite the head of the Kunlun Xu Family to check on the situation.
When Xu Qian pushed open the door to the office where Boss Qiao had passed away, he was attacked by the resentment. His brows furrowed slightly and he threw out a yellow talisman at the first moment. On the yellow talisman was a complicated rune drawn with dark red cinnabar. It was the most common Spirit Subduing Talisman.
Ordinary Spirit Suppression Talismans could only suppress small things, but the runes drawn by Xu Qian personally had strength that far exceeded other cultivators. It was not a problem to deal with ordinary evil spirits.
The Yellow Talisman was suspended in the void in the middle of the office. The paper kept swaying and floating. Not long after, it actually spontaneously combusted without a fire. Seeing this, Xu Qian immediately drew his Return to One Sword. The moment the black sword appeared, it instantly snatched away the white light outside the house.
The sky seemed to have suddenly changed within a five-kilometer radius. Dark clouds covered the sky and the sun was nowhere to be seen.
Han Jun sat in the meeting room and realized that the light outside the French window had suddenly turned dim. She looked at the building at the far end of the street and saw that the atmosphere there had become twisted. She guessed that this commotion must have been caused by Xu Qian.
She couldn’t help feeling slightly worried about Xu Qian’s situation.
Xu Qian used Return to One Sword to cut his left index finger. A cut appeared on his fair finger and hot red blood sprayed into the office. Xu Qian’s blood had the effect of cleansing evil spirits.
One by one, the resentful evil spirits stained his blood and immediately hugged their heads and screamed.
To Xu Qian, that scream was so piercing that it almost shattered his eardrums. But the group of people standing behind Xu Qian couldn’t see anything. They couldn’t see, but they could feel the change in the magnetic field around them.
The scream was so sharp that it broke an antique vase in the office.
Pa!
Seeing that vase exploded on its own, the faces of the people behind Xu Qian turned pale. All of them stuffed their hands into their pockets and clenched their fists, afraid that others would discover their timid side.
Gradually, the evil spirits returned to silence.
They squatted on the ground and slowly looked up. The hatred in their eyes was no longer there. They bowed deeply in Xu Qian’s direction. Then, their souls became fainter and fainter. They were about to disappear.
Xu Qian suddenly said to the people behind him, “Wait outside.” With that, Xu Qian walked into the office and closed the door.
The three Earth Binding Spirits all looked at Xu Qian in confusion, not knowing what he was going to do. Worried that Xu Qian wanted to turn them into ashes, the three of them revealed terrified expressions.
Xu Qian gazed indifferently at the three souls who should have reincarnated long ago, but were trapped in this old house because of all sorts of obsessions. His gaze was dark.
These few days, Wangdong City was especially restless. Some of the originally weak wraiths had become much stronger. They seemed to have been infected by something and awakened the evil in their bodies.
Xu Qian guessed that that thing should be that powerful evil spirit.
Xu Qian had something to ask the three of them.
“Who are you working for?”
Hearing this, the three evil spirits revealed terrified expressions in their eyes. They dared to be angry but didn’t dare to speak. Some words were already at the tip of their tongue, but because they were afraid of something, they didn’t dare to speak out.
Xu Qian added. “If you don’t say it, I’ll let your souls dissipate first!” Even if Xu Qian eliminated these evil spirits that took the lives of innocent people from this world, he wouldn’t receive any backlash.
The three of them shuddered. Only then did the male boss, whose face was turning green, say in a trembling voice, “Two weeks ago, a... a girl came to us and asked us to do something for her. If we didn’t do it obediently, she would make our souls dissipate!”
“It’s true!” The lady boss followed up.
The lady boss was hanged. She still retained her image before she passed away. She was pregnant and hung her neck halfway. She told Xu Qian, “That girl is very powerful. Just by raising her hand, we can feel the pain of our souls being burned.”
“We were also forced! She wanted us to help her ruin things. She hid in the dark and absorbed the fear and malice of those people before they died!”
After hearing their conversation, Xu Qian asked calmly, “What kind of girl is she?”
“She’s about 1.65 meters tall and very thin. She’s wearing a white sweater and has a pair of gray eyes.”
–
At night, when Han Jun got off work, she saw Xu Qian’s Bentley parked in front of the company building. Under the careful peeping eyes of the employees, she lifted her leg and entered Xu Qian’s car.
Han Jun sat in the passenger seat and asked Xu Qian, “Were you the one who caused the commotion this afternoon?” The Imperial Dragon Building and Three Life Bridge Financial Street were only separated by a huge river. They were very close to each other, so Xu Qian’s commotion naturally couldn’t be hidden from Han Jun.
Xu Qian’s car drove steadily on the bridge. He told Han Jun, “Little CEO Han, I made a mistake.”
Han Jun looked at him calmly and waited for him to continue.
Xu Qian looked very troubled. He pressed his glabella and told Han Jun, “The evil spirit has been hiding on humans all these years, so I haven’t been able to find its whereabouts.”
Han Jun habitually wore glasses when she was working. She took off her glasses and cursed with cold eyes. “What a cunning thing!” Han Jun asked him, “What kind of human appearance does it have now?”
“A young woman who is about 1.65 meters tall is very skinny. Someone has seen her wearing a white sweater and gray glasses.”
After Han Jun heard Xu Qian’s description of her appearance, a scene flashed across her mind. She pursed her lips and said, “Wait, let me show you something.” Han Jun immediately opened her cell phone, logged into her email box, and found a video she had sent to Han Miao two weeks ago.
“Pull over.”
Xu Qian parked the car by the side. Han Jun handed her cell phone to Xu Qian. “Look at this.”
Xu Qian watched the video carefully. After watching it, he said thoughtfully, “Is this girl breaking out of prison?”
“Mmm.”
“She’s not afraid of the power grid?”
Han Jun nodded affirmatively. She told Xu Qian, “This girl is my elder sister’s high school classmate. Her name is Lin Yutian. In her third year of high school, she was jailed for murder. She stayed in prison for four and a half years before suddenly escaping two weeks ago.”
Xu Qian narrowed his eyes. “Four and a half years ago...”
He exchanged glances with Han Jun and both of them thought of the key point. “It has been exactly four and a half years since the evil spirit escaped. In these few years, I have been looking for its whereabouts, but I have never sensed its existence. The first time I sensed the existence of the evil spirit was two weeks ago, and that place is only five kilometers from the prison!”
Xu Qian opened the video again and watched it. As he watched, he guessed. “The most evil person in this city is imprisoned in the prison. There are the most evil thoughts there. The evil spirit grows by absorbing all negative emotions. Evil thoughts, fear, and killing intent are all in the prison!”
The more Xu Qian spoke, the more his heart sank.
Han Jun had the same thought as him. “I heard from Han Miao that Lin Yutian is actually a very timid person. It’s already a ridiculous and abrupt thing for her to kill with a knife. Brother, tell me...” Han Jun turned to look at Xu Qian. She guessed boldly.” Do you think Lin Yutian was controlled by an evil spirit when she killed back then? The evil spirit purposely let Lin Yutian kill someone and go to jail so that he can take the opportunity to hide in prison to recuperate! ”
Han Jun was shocked by her own guess. If her guess was true, then everything made sense.
Why did the cowardly Lin Yutian kill Zhou Heng in a fit of anger! Why did Lin Yutian boldly escape from prison when there were only two and a half years left to her sentence! Because the person who committed all these crimes was not Lin Yutian at all, but that evil spirit!
The more ridiculous and unreliable a guess looked, the closer it was to the truth. If this was true, then Lin Yutian was too pitiful!
“I must meet this girl. When I meet her, I will know the truth.” Xu Qian asked Han Jun, “Is your elder sister still in Wangdong City? I want to meet her.”
“She’s still here. Our wedding is imminent and she won’t be leaving anytime soon.”
“Call her. I want to see her.”
“Mmm.”
Han Miao was researching how to make cola chicken wings with Li Ao this afternoon. She had just poured the cola into the chicken wings when she heard Li Ao calling her over. Han Miao took off her apron and ran to the studio, only to realize that Li Ao had drawn her fruit painting.
It was quite a nice painting.
Han Miao stared at her own reflection in the photo. She said, “I think a fruit painting needs a voluptuous girl to look better. I’ve lost weight and don’t look good anymore.” Han Miao pinched her slender waist and asked Li Ao, “Do you think I should gain weight?”
Li Ao stared at her for a long while before asking, “Meow ~ Do you want to have a child with me?”
Han Miao: “Ah?”
She didn’t understand why Li Ao suddenly mentioned a child when they were talking about figure.
Li Ao told her, “Let’s have a child. If we have a child, let me take care of it.” He pointed at the blank area of the painting. The corners of his lips curled up as he said yearningly, “Don’t you think that it will be more complete with another child here?”
an Miao looked in the direction Li Ao was pointing at and imagined that scene. She was really tempted. She stared at Li Ao’s face and then looked at her own reflection. She suddenly felt that since they were so good-looking, it was not right to not have a child to inherit their beauty.
“Then... then let nature take its course. Give birth when I’m pregnant?”
“Mmm. Okay.”
Li Ao would definitely let this happen naturally.
The two of them fooled around in the drawing room for a while. When it was over, Han Miao sat in Li Ao’s arms. She leaned her head on Li Ao’s shoulder and sniffed the sweat on his body. Suddenly, Han Miao asked Li Ao, “Why does your sweat smell strange?”
Li Ao’s nose twitched. He suddenly pulled Han Miao up and ran to the kitchen. As he ran, he shouted, “It’s the cola chicken wings in the pot!”
Hearing this, Han Miao instantly ran faster than Li Ao.
The pot on the kitchen stove was smoking and one could vaguely see the flames. The alarm on the kitchen ceiling suddenly sounded. Han Miao was shocked and heard Li Ao shout. “Turn off the gas. I’ll get the fire extinguisher!”
Han Miao snapped out of her trance and hurriedly turned off the gas switch. At this moment, Li Ao walked over with the fire extinguisher and sprayed it at the frying pan.
