Ruan Shixing was a little nervous when he found the Wei family with his old classmate who looked dazed. After he went back, he recovered from his illness within a few days. Apart from some psychological trauma, he never had those dreams that made him sleep poorly again. This change was so magical that even his family members who had been completely materialistic for generations thought it was amazing. They followed suit and burned two incense sticks in the temple, not to mention himself who had personally experienced the exorcism of the haunted house.
Therefore, even though he later spent another one million yuan in VIP fees in addition to the original fees, he did not feel very sad. Compared with a normal life, what could money compare to?
However, he still felt the VIP card burning in his hand. The main reason was that he didn’t know why he kept thinking about Wei Xi recently. But even though he thought about him, he had no legitimate reason to come to see him.
Fortunately, Huang Jue, whom he met at the class reunion, helped him solve this problem.
Huang Jue was still confused: “Boss, what’s wrong with you? Aren’t you a party member? Why do you believe in these weird things now?”
“What’s wrong with being a party member?” Ruan Shixing said confidently, “It doesn’t involve religious beliefs, and how do you know it’s supernatural? Do you know what the gift is for signing up for a VIP card? Why are you talking nonsense?”
Huang Jue: “…What to give?”
“‘An Outline of the Basic Principles of Marxism’ which has a basis in social science!”
Huang Jue wiped his sweat, feeling that the more he listened, the less reliable it seemed.
This unreliable feeling reached its peak the moment he stood outside the gate of the Wei family’s courtyard.
He saw that the lawn in the yard had been dug up clean, and the excavated soil was piled up in lumps beside it. A muddy Husky was rolling happily in the mud, wagging its tongue. The whole yard was a mess. If it weren’t for the house in front, it would have looked like it was still under renovation.
The three characters “Taicang Sect” in the company’s name were powerful and vigorous, but unfortunately they were written on a strange piece of wood and hung casually at the gate of the courtyard. Huang Jue looked at the board carefully and the more he looked at it, the more it looked like a door with the handle removed.
Ruan Shixing rang the doorbell, and a moment later a cold male voice came out of the speaker gloomily: “Who is it?”
Ruan Shixing asked: “Is this Taicang Sect?”
The male voice paused for a moment, then raised his voice and shouted, “Dad, it’s your turn.”
Then there was a vague and noisy cursing, and after a while the backyard door opened, and a man who looked like a housekeeper ran out wiping his sweat, while another middle-aged man wearing sunglasses stood behind him angrily.
Huang Jue: “…”
It was not that he was suspicious, there really seemed to be something wrong with this company!
….
Wei Xi came downstairs carrying his bamboo basket and saw Ruan Shixing sitting stiffly in the living room with a young man. Wei Tianyi was sitting on a separate sofa next to them, with his arms folded and a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
He was not surprised at all. He glanced at the strange young man then turned away, shouting, “Wanrong!”
Shu Wanrong slowly came out from the corner, with a perfect hairstyle and a Hermès platinum bag on her hand. She looked hesitant: “Xiao Xi, I have an appointment with someone for a spa…”
“Take out the small red bag inside, open it, and evenly sprinkle the soil inside on the soil outside the yard.” Wei Xi ignored him and handed the bamboo basket over, “Finish your job first.”
Shu Wanrong: “…”
Wei Tianyi had a dark face and looked like he wanted to curse, but in the end Wei Chengshu stepped forward silently to take over. He stumbled as soon as he got the basket and called housekeeper Zhou and two aunts to drag the basket out.
Wei Xi admired him very much and said to the second disciple behind him: “This is the most diligent disciple in our sect.”
Shuo Zong: “…”
Although he was silent, his eyes still followed the wonderful smell from the basket. The smell was very familiar, but he couldn’t remember where he had smelled it before.
Ruan Shixing and Huang Jue also saw the woman carrying Hermès and dragging a bamboo basket for the first time. They were stunned for a while, and then they heard Wei Xi ask: “Are you looking for me?”
Ruan Shixing came back to his senses and was a little at a loss when facing him. He coughed and nodded and said yes. He turned his eyes to the unbelievably beautiful young man behind Wei Xi and was stunned for a moment: “Huh? Lu Que? Why are you here too?”
Shuo Zong glanced at the slightly red tips of his ears and didn’t want to pay any attention to this person.
Wei Xi was very friendly to the VIPs. After explaining his relationship with the second disciple, he glanced at the table and looked at Wei Tianyi: “Why is there not even tea, water, melons and fruits?”
Wei Tianyi’s face turned completely black, but Ruan Shixing waved his hands in embarrassment: “No, no, no, uncle was very kind to us. He even asked Butler Zhou to pour us tea.”
Wei Xi was somewhat dissatisfied with Wei Tianyi’s passiveness, but seeing that the guests had no objections, he sat down anyway. After sitting down, he glanced at the two of them, and finally settled on Huang Jue’s embarrassed face: “Tell me, what happened.”
Huang Jue still didn’t believe it. Moreover, the Taicang Sect that Ruan Shixing brought him to looked strange. Such a young master came out, and it looked even less reliable than ordinary temples. Therefore, he was somewhat resistant. However, he was still surprised that the other party could tell at a glance that he was seeking help. He smiled and said, “It’s just some small things. Maybe I’ve been under too much mental pressure recently and I can’t sleep well.”
Wei Xi didn’t say anything. He took the tea handed to him by Butler Zhou and took a sip. He looked at him helplessly and suddenly asked, “Would you like to apply for a card?”
Huang Jue thought he would say something mysterious to persuade him, but when he heard such a realistic sales pitch, he was stunned: “What?”
Wei Xi explained: “Single card, single person, Ruan Shixing’s VIP discount cannot be used by you.”
“…” Huang Jue was speechless and didn’t know what to say. He felt as if he had come to a chain hair salon. After seeing Wei Xi and the two disciples, especially the disciple named Lu Que, this feeling of dislocation became even more serious. He replied in shame: “No, that’s not necessary.”
“Oh.” Wei Xi looked a little disappointed, and his attitude was a little lazy. “There are at least three evil spirits in your house. It’s not cheap to exorcise them. Are you sure?”
Huang Jue was about to stand up and leave, but when he heard this, he was shocked and turned his head slowly: “You…what did you say? Three what?”
Wei Xi: “Evil spirits, have you never counted in your dreams?”
Huang Jue was sweating all over his body in an instant, and beads of sweat were dripping down his temples like a faucet. He heard the sound of himself swallowing saliva and asked tremblingly: “You…how did you know?”
The dream figures that disturbed his sleep were usually alone, but sometimes they appeared in groups. He once wrote down the details of his dream after waking up, and there were indeed three of them at most. But he never mentioned this to anyone.
Huang Jue’s thoughts about the scammers that had come to him were instantly swept away, and his heart began to beat wildly. Could it be that there really was such a weird thing? He calculated and came up with three. If he guessed it, it would be too accurate, right?
Wei Xi didn’t understand his shock at all: “Why don’t you know this? You moved to a new house a month ago. The dreams happened after that, right?”
Huang Jue was immediately soaked in cold sweat when he heard this, and he sat up carefully: “You, you are right, I was planning to marry my girlfriend recently, but houses in Beijing are too expensive and I have never been able to afford one. A relative at home took care of me and sold me a school district house for cheap. I just renovated it and moved in last month.”
This school district house was in a very good school district, and the selling price was nearly one-third lower than the market price. The relative said that he originally planned to keep it for his son as a wedding house. Huang Jue and his parents were very grateful to the other party.
His moving ceremony was also very simple. Apart from his girlfriend and parents, he did not inform any of his friends or classmates, even Ruan Shixing, his best roommate in college.
Huang Jue was completely convinced now. This was not something that could be guessed, so the way he looked at Wei Xi suddenly changed, as if he was looking at a life-saving straw. After all, not being able to sleep well for more than a month was something that no one could endure.
He asked tremblingly: “Master, since you can calculate it, do you have a way to resolve it?”
The master still looked the same as when they first met, but in Huang Jue’s eyes, the other party’s unreliable image had become a sacred and cold Gaoling Flower. Gaoling Flower looked at him with disdainful eyes and slowly spoke –
“Are you really not going to apply for our VIP membership? There is a gift for signing up.”
Huang Jue: “…”
Was he talking about “Introduction to the Basic Principles of Marxism”?
