Chapter 75: Black Magic Practitioner
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After returning to the villa, Shen Chun sat in the living room. Shen Chi had been picked up and had already fallen asleep. Now, Shen Chun was studying the Gu worm in the glass bottle in her hand.
She had no gains this time.
The witness had already been killed by the black magic practitioner. Even if he left the Gu worm corpse in his hands, it was useless.
If it was a living Gu worm, he could use a tracking talisman.
Fu Shi walked out of the bedroom with Shen Chun’s phone and said in a rough tone, “Ling Han called.”
Shen Chun turned around and took the cell phone. She could guess the reason for Ling Han’s call.
“Officer Ling?”
Ling Han’s side was a little noisy. “The identity of the corpse has been confirmed. It’s indeed Li Juan and Liu Qiang’s son, Yuan Ming. We told Li Juan about Yuan Ming’s death, so she told us the truth. Liu Qiang was greedy and liked to gamble. When he worked out of town, he also gambled. When he lost money, he drank alcohol and even used domestic violence. Li Juan’s mental state wasn’t good because of this, and her son, Yuan Ming, couldn’t stand his stepfather treating his mother like this, so he went to hire a fortune teller out of anger. Previously, he asked about the situation, but Li Juan didn’t tell the truth in order to protect Yuan Ming, but unexpectedly…”
She didn’t expect Yuan Ming to be dead.
Shen Chun only sighed when she heard that.
Then, she heard Ling Han’s angry and helpless reprimand on the other end of the line. “Why did this child think of this way to punish his stepfather?”
Shen Chun lowered her eyes and looked at the dead Gu worm with a complicated expression as she said in a heavy tone, “Because when he was at his wit’s end, that kind of person happened to give him hope. Everyone has their own fate, there is a price to pay for tampering with it.”
Hearing this, Fu Shi, who had been waiting quietly, looked up at Shen Chun.
There was a long silence on the other end of the line. Knowing that this outcome was irreversible, she changed the topic and voiced her doubts. “By the way, Miss Shen, I’ve sent people to protect Chen Jin. At the moment, we haven’t found anything fishy yet. What happened to her?”
After Shen Chun fell onto the sofa and her muscles completely relaxed, she explained tircdly, “There was something wrapped around her today. I’m not sure if it’s her or the people around her.”
Ling Han cleared his throat. “Alright, we’ll be careful. In short, thank you for your help today, Miss Shen.”
“You’re welcome.”
With that, Shen Chun hung up the phone and met Fu Shi’s gaze.
She couldn’t help but laugh. “What’s wrong?”
A complicated look flashed across Fu Shi’s eyes, and his voice tightened. “Then what price will you pay if you help Xu Yan?”
Shen Chun didn’t know how to answer Fu Shi’s question.
She didn’t expect Fu Shi to be so sharp as to grasp the saying that everyone had their own fate that couldn’t be changed.
Fu Shi stared at Shen Chun in a daze, but Shen Chun avoided Fu Shi’s gaze.
Everything that went around came around.
The matter of Xu Yan asking her for help was related to Xu Yan’s love tribulation.
If she blocked the tribulation, she would have to pay an equivalent price.
After a while, Shen Chun forced a smile and pretended to be calm as she shrugged and said, “Don’t worry, Hubby. Since I agreed to help, it means that I’m fine. Moreover, with you around and with such pure purple aura nourishing me, what can happen?”
Even if Shen Chun tried her best to pretend to be relaxed and play it off as a small matter, Fu Shi could tell that something was wrong.
He suddenly grabbed Shen Chun’s flailing hand. Under the bright light, his face was filled with anger as he squeezed out two words from between his teeth. “Shen Chun.”
Shen Chun was stunned. Was Fu Shi… worried about her?
It wasn’t the first time she had heard her name from Fu Shi, but this time, Shen Chun’s heart skipped a beat.
However, she would rather die than admit it.
Shen Chun blinked and revealed an innocent expression. She emphasized again, “Really.”
Shen Chun could feel that Fu Shi’s grip on her wrist had lightened. Acting cute and coquettish worked on men no matter how many times one used it. At this moment, Fu Shi’s phone rang, so Shen Chun quickly took the opportunity to escape..
