Jiujiu thought about how Old Master Wan liked to throw money at her for no reason. She found a piece of jade from her private storage and asked Little White to bless it. Then, she put it in a box and prepared to give it to Old Master Wan as a birthday present.
Although Old Master Wan had retired, the connections he had accumulated over the years were still there. Therefore, Old Master Wan's birthday party was naturally crowded with people and was extremely lively.
However, among the people who came to celebrate Old Master Wan's birthday, most of them sincerely wished Old Master Wan a happy birthday. There were also those who wanted to form an alliance through marriage.
It was true that Old Master Wan had retired, but his connections were still there, not to mention his son Old Master Wan, his god-grandson Qin Lang, and Wan Run. Any one of them was a well-known figure outside, especially Qin Lang, who became a regiment commander before the age of 30 and had the help of his family background. His future was absolutely limitless.
Therefore, other than themselves, some of the people who came also brought their own daughters of marriageable age to try their luck.
After Jiujiu declined Wan Run's offer to pick her up, she sat at home and waited for the airbag.
Qin Lang arrived an hour later. Jiujiu got into the car and looked at Qin Lang's sweaty forehead. She opened her bag and took out a tissue. She gently wiped the sweat off Qin Lang's forehead and said coquettishly, "Didn't you say I'm not in a hurry?"
Qin Lang raised his hand and touched Jiujiu's little face. The corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile. He looked at Jiujiu's delicate face and chuckled. "I was anxious. I wanted to see you as soon as possible."
Qin Lang's words successfully pleased Jiujiu. Jiujiu leaned over and kissed Qin Lang's cheek. She then held Qin Lang's hand and whispered to him.
If it was someone else who was chattering non-stop in front of him like a little sparrow, Qin Lang would definitely tell them to get lost. However, if it was Jiujiu who was chattering non-stop beside his ear, Qin Lang felt that no matter how much he listened, it would never be enough.
The two of them stopped at the entrance of the Wan family's villa while Jiujiu was chirping and Qin Lang listened attentively. Occasionally, he would give Jiujiu a little response.
Qin Lang got out of the car and then circled around to open the door. He held Jiujiu's hand and walked into the house.
Qin Lang was backed by the Wan family and the Qin family. There were countless people who coveted Qin Lang. Many men wished that they were not women so that they could marry Qin Lang.
Therefore, when Qin Lang appeared, many people stared at Qin Lang without blinking. Many girls who had been instructed by their elders had already started to think about what they should say to get close to Qin Lang when they saw him later, and then have a sentimental love affair with him.
However, dreams were plentiful, but reality was harsh. Before they could think of anything to talk to Qin Lang, they saw a fair and slender hand gently placed on Qin Lang's hand. A little girl wearing a white dress got out of Qin Lang's car and hugged Qin Lang's arm as they walked toward Old Master Wan.
Then, everyone saw Old Master Wan, who usually didn't show his emotions to anyone, reveal a comforting smile when he saw the little girl hugging Qin Lang. Then, he looked at Qin Lang and said something in a low voice.
After hearing Old Master Wan's words, Qin Lang smiled and agreed. Then, he brought the little girl to Wan Run's side and the three of them started chatting enthusiastically.
When the people who originally wanted to hit on Qin Lang saw the little girl chatting happily with Old Master Wan and Wan Run, they knew that this little girl was an existence that they couldn't afford to offend. They hurriedly warned the juniors they brought over not to recklessly rush up and chat with Qin Lang.
The banquet was in full swing. When Jiujiu sat down, she saw Xiao Mi and Mu Huiqing sitting not far away.
Mu Huiqing's face still carried a bit of arrogance. However, probably because he didn't get the treatment he wanted, his face carried a bit of gloominess.
The girl sitting next to Mu Huiqing was Xiao Mi. However, due to the effect of the Gu worm, Xiao Mi's appearance was even more beautiful than a year ago. She even looked a bit flirtatious. She attracted the attention of the people around her, but no one took the initiative to talk to her.
After all, if things were abnormal, then there was a demon. If someone was as beautiful as Xiao Mi, then it would be a bit unreal.
Everyone liked beautiful women, but they didn't like a beautiful woman who looked like a fake person.
Jiujiu looked at Xiao Mi, who was still dead set on Mu Huiqing, and her stomach instantly filled with evil thoughts. After thinking for a while, she asked Steamed Bun to send the picture of Mu Huiqing and the little girl at the amusement park restaurant to Xiao Mi.
Of course, Jiujiu didn't forget to ask Wan Run about Mu Huiqing. After all, with Mu Huiqing's status, he didn't have the qualifications to attend Elder Wan's birthday banquet.
Hearing Jiujiu ask about Mu Huiqing, Wan Run pursed his lips and said with disdain: "Jiujiu, I'll tell you. That Mu Huiqing is a bit strange."
"How is he strange?"
"The people around him all recognize him as their boss as if they were possessed. Some time ago, that Hong Qiao from our school chased after Mu Huiqing like he had lost his mind and recognized him as his boss. The reason why he could come was because Hong Qiao brought him in."
What Wan Run didn't say was that because Hong Qiao chased after Wan Run to recognize him as his boss, it had become a joke in the courtyard. Even his parents were starting to consider whether or not to train a new successor.
Hearing Wan Run talk about Hong Qiao's behavior, Jiujiu raised her head and looked at the people sitting around Mu Huiqing: "Which one is Hong Qiao?"
Wan Run raised his hand and pointed at the man sitting next to Mu Huiqing with a fawning expression. He curled his lips and said: "That's Hong Qiao. I don't know how he became like this."
Jiujiu followed Wan Run's finger and looked at Hong Qiao. After seeing the Yin energy on Hong Qiao's face, she instantly understood.
Jiujiu moved closer to Wan Run's ear and whispered: "Hong Qiao has been possessed."
"Holy shit." Wan Run looked in Hong Qiao's direction with a face of shock. He covered his mouth and said in a voice that only he and Jiujiu could hear: "Hong Qiao has really been possessed?"
Jiujiu nodded: "He bumped into a century-old ghost. The one controlling him now is this old ghost."
If this went on for a long time, Hong Qiao's soul would be devoured by the old ghost and replace him to live forever.
Jiujiu originally thought that Mu Huiqing was a transmigrator who might be able to detoxify. She didn't expect him to be able to control souls. It really seemed a bit strange.
Jiujiu looked at Mu Huiqing and thought for a moment. She raised her hand and patted Wan Run's shoulder, saying in a low voice: "Can you ask that Hong Qiao to come out?"
"I could before, but didn't you say that he's an old ghost now? Will he go with me? "
"Although the old ghost can control Hong Qiao's words and actions, he can't completely control Hong Qiao. Naturally, he's afraid of being exposed. Go ahead and ask him. I'll take care of the rest."
Jiujiu narrowed her eyes and looked at Mu Huiqing who was smiling brightly. She didn't know what he was saying, but the corners of her mouth curled up.
Smile, smile, this should be the brightest smile you've ever had.
