Chapter 5: Meeting a Ghost
Shen Chun returned to the villa. As soon as he walked in, Liu Lan's shrill voice sounded.
"You're finally willing to come back after fooling around outside. You don't act ladylike at all. No wonder Lin Huai broke up with you."
Liu Lan was the Host's aunt. Her husband was Shen Chun's father's younger brother. Back then, Mr. and Mrs. Shen had started from scratch. When Shen Zheng saw that his brother was rich, he immediately curried favor with them and obtained a lot of money.
However, as soon as the Shen family went bankrupt, the two of them changed their attitude and mocked her and her brother every day. They couldn't wait to kick her and her brother out immediately.
If not for the fact that Shen Chun didn't have money and her brother needed to be treated in the hospital, she wouldn't have continued to stay here.
However, with the money Xu Yan had given her, she might be able to consider moving out.
Seeing that Shen Chun didn't answer, Liu Lan immediately scolded, "Can't you hear me talking to you? You don't have any manners at all. I wonder how Brother and Sister-in-law raised you!"
"You spent my family's money, but bullied me and my brother. I also want to know who you learned your ungrateful behavior from."
"Damn girl! How dare you talk back to me!"
Liu Lan threw away the snacks in her hand and walked towards Shen Chun with her hands on her waist. She raised her arm and just as she was about to hit Shen Chun, the lights in the room suddenly went out.
A cold wind blew in through the window, making Liu Lan shiver. She rubbed her arms and muttered, "How creepy."
As soon as she finished speaking, a white figure appeared by the window. It slowly looked up, revealing a pair of hollow eyes.
"Ah!"
After Liu Lan screamed, her eyes rolled back and she fell to the ground.
"How timid." Lan Shan went through the window and circled around Liu Lan. Then, he blew in her face.
This encounter was enough for Liu Lan to suffer for a few days.
"Not bad." Shen Chun threw a piece of bamboo bone to Lan Shan and said, "There's some spiritual energy in it. You can use it during emergencies."
"Thank you, Master!"
When Shen Zheng heard the commotion in the living room, he quickly came over to help Liu Lan up. He shouted at Liu Lan a few times before glaring at Shen Chun.
"What's going on! What did you do?"
Shen Chun glanced at him aloofly. Her imposing aura intimidated Shen Zheng, who swallowed hard and said, "I'll just take it that we're unlucky! Go to the hospital tomorrow and pick Little Chi up. I've spent all my money on the company, so I don't have any more money to let him stay in the hospital for treatment."
"Didn't my parents give you your money and your company?" Shen Chun sneered. "Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"You're crazy." For some reason, Shen Zheng felt that Shen Chun was quite frightening, so he didn't say anything else to her and quickly carried Liu Lan back to the bedroom.
Shen Chun also returned to her small room. This was originally Liu Lan's storage room. She had no intention of cleaning it up and just placed an extra bed in there for Shen Chun to sleep in.
Shen Chun took out a few bank cards. There was 300,000 yuan in them. She couldn't touch the rest yet. The property prices in the capital were astronomical. She wanted to spend 30,000 yuan to rent a house and pay for her brother's medical expenses.
Shen Chi was only eight years old this year, but because of his congenital illness, he spent most of his time in the ward. Since she had survived with the help of the Host's body, she had to take good care of her brother.
However, 200,000 yuan could only allow him to stay in the hospital for two months at most. With medicine fees, the time would be even shorter.
She had to find an opportunity to earn money as soon as possible. She wondered if there were any ghosts here that she could exorcise.
Shen Chun had already accumulated some spiritual energy, so she sat cross-legged on the bed as she chanted some spells.
She was appearing in the dream of the person who would be in the same car as Fu Shi tomorrow. Fu Shi might not remember her words, but that person would definitely remember them.
After the last bit of spiritual power she had accumulated had been exhausted, Shen Chun dragged her tired body onto the bed. Even though the room was dilapidated, she fell asleep quickly.
After all, there was still a tough battle to fight tomorrow.
——
Luo Yong was dreaming that he was dining with the female celebrity he liked and chuckled foolishly, but then the content of the dream suddenly changed. It was pitch-black all around. The female celebrity was still there, but she kept repeating something.
"Don't go out at seven in the morning tomorrow. If you have to go out, don't go north or take black transportation."
Luo Yong screamed and suddenly woke up.
