Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

Chapter 1161: Happy Yang Lan

Half an hour later, Feng Yuanlin dropped Shuyan off in front of her apartment building. Before Chi Shuyan got out of the car and went upstairs, Feng Yuanlin suddenly said, “Shuyan, did Zhenbai call you since you’re going back so late? Do you need me to call him and explain the situation?”

Feng Yuanlin looked at the time as he spoke. It was quite late; it was almost 10pm.

Chi Shuyan knew that Brother Feng meant well, and she grinned. “It’s fine. It’s not a big deal to come back late occasionally. Besides, he’s not as strict as you think!”

Feng Yuanlin thought to himself that Zhenbai had always been very controlling, especially when it came to Shuyan. After Shuyan left, however, Feng Yuanlin still sent Zhenbai a few messages to explain, in case it caused a conflict between the two.

Only when Shuyan was out of sight did Feng Yuanlin drive away.

Chi Shuyan took the elevator up. She thought about what happened tonight and also about the issue with Yang Lan. More than that, however, she thought about breaking up with Qi Zhenbai last night. She frowned and made up her mind to have a good talk with him tonight. As for breaking up, she really didn’t want to, nor did she think they were at that point.

It was only a minor conflict; it should be fine.

Chi Shuyan relaxed. She walked to the door and entered the password.

She thought that the other party would be back by now, but when she pushed the door open and entered, it was dark inside. She looked around, but there was no light coming from the kitchen, bedroom, or study, and there was no movement anywhere in the apartment!

He wasn’t back yet?

Chi Shuyan put on her house slippers in the entryway and turned on the light. She walked in and subconsciously walked to the man’s study. She knocked on the door, but there was no answer. She pushed the door open and saw that there was no one inside. She went to the bedroom to take a look. The man really hadn’t come back!

Chi Shuyan did want to call, but she thought about how it was late and the other party might be busy, so she could only take a shower first. She didn’t forget that after meeting her friend’s boyfriend tonight, she had gone into the sewers.

It was a good time to take a shower.

......

After taking a shower, Chi Shuyan saw that Qi Zhenbai still hadn’t returned. She hugged her pillow and sat on the couch in the living room as she stared at her phone for a while. After that, she went back to the bedroom to draw talismans.

Given her experience last night, when she drew the Exploding Talismans and Pure Yang Talismans tonight, only a few were duds. The rest were a success, and while only one or two of the Pure Yang Talismans were at Level 4, she wasn’t surprised.

Somehow, she couldn’t stop drawing talismans. After drawing a bunch of Exploding Talismans, Pure Yang Talismans and Safety Talismans, Chi Shuyan itched to try drawing a Level 5 Tracking Talisman.

She channeled her spiritual energy to the tip of her brush and tried to draw a talisman above her current level for the first time, even though she knew in her heart that she was only at the fourth level of the Mystic Yin Arts; it was already difficult for her to draw high-grade Level 4 Pure Yang Talismans, let alone Level 5.

She didn’t have much confidence, but she had to give it a try. She condensed all the spiritual energy in her dantian and sent it into the tip of her brush as she began to draw a Level 5 Tracking Talisman.

It was just that when she channeled her spiritual energy to draw a Level 5 Tracking Talisman, the brush in her hand seemed uncontrollable for the first time, and hummed as it tried to escape.

Chi Shuyan controlled the cinnabar brush in her hand and continued circulating her spiritual energy to draw the talisman on the yellow paper.

Halfway through drawing the talisman, there was a bang. Not only did the yellow talisman burn to powder, the cinnabar brush also exploded into pieces and fell to the floor.

Because Chi Shuyan had used too much spiritual energy, the cinnabar brush fell to the floor. She immediately collapsed backward, her face pale and her forehead covered in sweat.

She stared absent-mindedly at the half-finished talisman, her eyes flashing with disappointment.

Chi Shuyan didn’t believe in failures. After resting for a while, she gritted her teeth and took out a new cinnabar brush. She followed the same steps as she drew a Level 5 Tracking Talisman, and injected more spiritual energy. This time, when she channeled her spiritual energy into the brush, she was quite gentle and unhurried. Unfortunately, this Level 5 talisman wasn’t something she could draw for now.

The talisman burnt up and the cinnabar brush shattered again. The spiritual energy which leaked out made her chest hurt a little. The only two cinnabar brushes she had were broken, so Chi Shuyan could only give up.

She curbed her thoughts and subconsciously looked out the window. The bedroom curtains weren’t drawn. It was already light outside.

She looked up at the clock on the wall. The hands were already pointing at 5.30am.

It was already so late?

Chi Shuyan got up and opened the door to take a look outside. She was the only one in the spacious apartment.

When she thought of how Qi Zhenbai had yet to come back, she took out her phone to call him again. When she took out her phone, she saw that he had sent her a message around midnight, saying that he was busy and had no time to go home!

Chi Shuyan stared at the two words “no time” in a daze. For a moment, she wasn’t sure if the other party had deliberately used an excuse to avoid her or if he really was busy. She didn’t want to misunderstand him, and she hoped it was the latter more than anything else.

Since this man wasn’t coming back, Chi Shuyan could only go back to her room to sleep. Lying in bed, she thought a little too much. What if Qi Zhenbai really wanted to break up with her?

No way!

Chi Shuyan felt that it was better not to think too much about it. She slept and cultivated at the same time. She still had to go to school; they could talk about other things later.

Later, Chi Shuyan washed up and took a bus to the university.

Before getting on the bus, Chi Shuyan took the initiative to call Qi Zhenbai. As soon as the call went through, she was about to speak, when Assistant Xu said, “Little Lady Boss, hello. The boss is in a meeting now, and I’m afraid he’s not free! If you need something, should I go and let him know?”

Disappointed, Chi Shuyan shook her head. “Forget it, it’s fine. I just wanted to give him a call. Since he’s busy, forget it. If possible, I hope Assistant Xu can pass on the message.”

Assistant Xu immediately nodded. “Okay! No problem, Little Lady Boss!”

Chi Shuyan wasn’t familiar with Assistant Xu, so she hung up after a few words.

Ten minutes later, the bus stopped at the bus stop for Yanjing University. Chi Shuyan got out and walked absent-mindedly toward the school gate.

Coincidentally, she ran into a beaming Yang Lan at the gate this morning. When Yang Lan saw Chi Shuyan, she was very happy and greeted her familiarly. “Shuyan!”

Chi Shuyan looked up and saw Yang Lan. She was about to greet her subconsciously, when she saw that Yang Lan was beaming with happiness.

She couldn’t help but think of how Yang Lan had fallen for Brother Feng’s cousin at first sight last night and how she had fawned on him. After that, Yang Lan got into Feng Yuancen’s car. Chi Shuyan didn’t know what happened between the two of them after that, but when she saw the obvious peach blossom on Yang Lan’s face, her expression froze. It seemed that Yang Lan hadn’t listened to what Chi Shuyan had said last night.

Chi Shuyan’s face was a bit dark and she wasn’t in a good mood. Although she had taken some issue with Yang Lan’s scheming last night, in the end, apart from being muddle-headed when it came to relationships, Yang Lan could be considered quite sincere toward her. Chi Shuyan didn’t want to lose such a friend, nor did she want to see Yang Lan suffer.

She pursed her lips and probed, “How did it go with Brother Feng last night?”

When Yang Lan heard Shuyan mention Feng Yuancen, she blushed shyly and said, “Shuyan, I think he has a good character, and I’ve never been so moved by a man. I still want to give it a shot!”

Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Yang Lan said, “He seems interested in me, too!”

Chi Shuyan thought to herself that after finding out about Brother Feng’s cousin’s dissolute nature from him, she knew Feng Yuancen’s type – as long as it was a woman, he would be tempted to play with her and wouldn’t take it seriously. It was a pity that Yang Lan didn’t know this yet. She was momentarily bewitched and couldn’t see the truth.

She really felt that Feng Qin was much better than Feng Yuancen. If Yang Lan could be with Feng Qin, she would never regret it.

If Chi Shuyan were Yang Lan, she wouldn’t hesitate to choose Feng Qin, who was reliable and had endless potential. Besides, Feng Qin’s looks weren’t that bad.

Chi Shuyan didn’t bother to try persuading Yang Lan too much this time. She could tell that no matter how much she said about Feng Qin, Yang Lan wouldn’t listen. Her heart was probably filled with thoughts of Feng Yuancen.

Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but sigh at how lethal looks were!

Actually, there was nothing wrong with women loving looks. It was very normal, but Yang Lan’s situation was a little special. No matter how she thought about it, she felt that a man’s life was more important than her own. It was fine if the other party was worthy of her feelings, but if he wasn’t, the risk the other party posed wasn’t worth it!

Chi Shuyan nodded. “Okay, looks like you’ve made up your mind! Let’s go, class is about to start!”

Seeing Shuyan turn around without saying anything, Yang Lan was a bit anxious and panicked. She also knew that what she had done last night was a bit inappropriate. Yang Lan gritted her teeth and suddenly said, “Shuyan, I’m sorry about last night!”
