Chapter 283 The Villa’s Secret

Ye Shaoyang shrugged and intentionally made fun of her, “I look forward to that . ”

Xiao Ma spiced it up, “Yeah, I really hope that day comes . She is such a pretty and rich celebrity . ”

His words touched Zhou Jingru’s nerve; she replied in a flat tone, “How much does she have?”

“Umm… . the paparazzi said that she is quite rich . ” Xiao Ma scratched his head .

“I know her family . Her father runs an international business company . Indeed, she is can be considered rich . ”

Unhappy with Zhou Jingru’s words, Xiao Ma tried to defend his goddess, “She is a celebrity . We can’t weigh her through her wealth status . ”

Xie Yuqing joined the conversation with a snort, “How can she become so famous without the aid of her father’s money? Furthermore, she only won the champion in a single competition and became popular recently . A new talent singer . We don’t know how far she can go in the next few years . ”

She paused for a while and continued, “How easy is it for a person wants to become a celebrity; with her family background and pretty appearance . But a truly rich family will not care to become a celebrity . Am I right, Xiaoru?”

Zhou Jingru smiled as she spoke to Ye Shaoyang, “Big Brother Shaoyang, I have no questions about you helping to solve her problem, but I don’t see why it is necessary for you to become her personal security . As you know, celebrities are always surrounded by tons of rumors . I am afraid you will get yourself into trouble . After all, you are a Heavenly Master . A holy Heavenly Master . ”

Before Ye Shaoyang could reply, Xiao Ma rushed to answer, “She offered thirty thousand Yuan . And she has transferred fifteen thousand to his bank account… . ”

“Thirty thousand Yuan . You can just return it to her,” said Zhou Jingru as she turned to Ye Shaoyang, “Big Brother Shaoyang, if you need money to spend, you can be my personal security . You can decide the amount you want . ”

Ye Shaoyang cleared his throat and shook his hands, “No, I won’t receive any reward if I don’t deserve it . I have my reasons for staying at her home . Don’t worry, I will leave once I solve her case . I won’t be there permanently as personal security . ” He wondered why the two ladies were bothered about him becoming Zhuang Yuning’s private security . Why did they seem to get offended when they got to know this? Strange .

Zhou Jingru did not argue, knowing that he might think she was making trouble out of nothing . She hesitated for a moment before she said, “Alright . I will send you there later . ”

After their meal, Zhou Jingru asked for the details of Teng Yongqing’s destination and booked a flight ticket for him . Teng Yongqing rejected her plan with thanks and stated that he would not be heading back to Luo Jia Sect right away . Instead, he was going to travel around for the moment . So, Zhou Jingru arranged a cab for him to the nearest bus station .

Then, they parted; Teng Yongqing pulled Ye Shaoyang to one side to have a private conversation .

“Heavenly Master Ye, I understand that your role as a Maoshan Daoist is to capture and kill evil beings . However, the evil tendencies in you will grow stronger as time goes on, and this will affect your cultivation . In Buddhism, we refer to this as the demonic character . You need to think of a way to clear it . If not, you might stray onto the path of a devil one day . ”

“How do I clear it?” asked Ye Shaoyang .

“Reduce killing and holding a firm belief in fighting against evil tendencies . What I have mentioned is having a firm belief in your Dao heart, not the religion . ”

Ye Shaoyang smiled, “I certainly have doubts, but I have never doubted my Dao heart . ”

“May I know… . ”

“For those evil beings that I have no reason to kill, I will capture them, but for the opposite, I will kill them ruthlessly; this is my spiritual faith . Sounds violent but simple and practical . ”

Teng Yongqing fixed his gazed onto Ye Shaoyang for a moment and recited the names of Buddha before he got into the car . He turned and looked over his shoulder when getting in the car, “I will wait for you at Luo Jia Sect . ”

Ye Shaoyang nodded and gazed after the departing cab .

Ye Shaoyang joined the crowd . They had a small chat before they parted . Zhou Jingru thought of sending Ye Shaoyang to Zhuang Yuning’s house, but Ye Shaoyang kindly rejected her when he recalled her attitude during the meal . He felt that it was inappropriate for the two of them to meet . He had no choice but to bring Xiao Ma along as he begged him in a hundred ways .

The two of them took a cab to the location given by Zhuang Yuning . It was located in a high-class residential area over the town . The cab drove past a few condominium buildings before arriving at a row of villas . The villas were three-stories tall; there were big gardens at the front and each had its own style .

Ye Shaoyang followed the house number and arrived at a European style villa and rang the doorbell .

“Whoa, this is where she stays,” Xiao Ma exclaimed, “The housing price around this area is very expensive . Not to mention this villa, it costs at least two to three million . What a rich girl . ”

Zhuang Yuning opened the gate; she was wearing a pajama suit . She smiled sweetly to Ye Shaoyang as she gestured for him to come in, but she was puzzled when she saw Xiao Ma . Ye Shaoyang hurriedly explained, “He is my assistant . ”

Xiao Ma acted like a professional and gave an enigmatic smile, “The boundless power of Buddha . ”

Ye Shaoyang almost fainted when he heard his words .

Zhuang Yuning showed them to the living hall while she went to the kitchen to get the tea set . Once she was out of sight, Ye Shaoyang glared at Xiao Ma, “Damn you . Can you imitate properly when you are trying to act as a Daoist? What did you recite?”

“The boundless power of Buddha . What’s the problem?”

“Goodness! The boundless power of Buddha is a greeting among the Buddhists; the boundless power of Sanqing is for Daoists . What a great mistake you’ve committed!”

“Oh no!” Xiao Ma was speechless and puzzled .

A moment later, Zhuang Yuning came back with a tea set; she smiled, “I’m so sorry . I don’t usually drink tea, and I rarely have guests, so I kept them deep in the cabinet . ”

She hurriedly boiled water and poured three cups of tea . Then, the three started their conversation over the couch .

Looking around the house, the design was impressive looking, not too luxurious but full of artistic elegance . Ye Shaoyang simply asked, “Miss Zhuang, are you living alone here?”

“Calling me Yuyu will do . My parents are working outstation, so they left me living here alone as I am studying at a university in this town . ”

“Such a grand house . I wonder why don’t I see any maids here?”

Zhuang Yuning revealed an awkward expression, “I don’t like living with strangers . So, I hired an aunty to clean my house every morning . ”

After drinking the tea, Zhuang Yuning brought them to the second floor . She prepared one room for each for them . Once Ye Shaoyang dropped his backpack, he asked, “Where is your room?”

“On the third floor . ”

“Well, show me then . ”

“That… . ” Zhuang Yuning hesitated .

Xiao Ma laughed, “Little Ye, don’t you know a man can’t simply enter a female’s room?”

Ye Shaoyang replied with a glare, “What are you thinking? How can I perform Daoist crafts without looking at her room?”

Zhuang Yuning spoke nothing after listening to his words . The two of them were stunned when they walked up to the third floor: A big room with all kinds of musical instruments, notably an elegant, milky white grand piano located on a small stage with a perfect sound system set .

“A small-scale auditorium for me to practice, simulating the feeling of performing on a stage . ” As she explained, she led them to a small room by the auditorium, and smiled, “This is my bedroom . Would you please excuse me for a moment? Got to clean a little . ”

She quickly dived into her room, closing the door behind her . When she opened the door after ten minutes, she was holding a bulging bag . She apologized to them again and carried the bag downstairs .

Ye Shaoyang frowned as he fixed his gaze onto the bag until Zhuang Yuning was out of sight .

Xiao Ma raised his eyebrows and teased Ye Shaoyang, “She must have carried her underclothes in the bag . Don’t you want to have a look?”

Ye Shaoyang did not respond to his teasing but he dropped his voice into a whisper, “I smelled incense ashes and sensed a faint Spirit Qi in the bag . There must be something unusual in it . ”
