Chapter 6
Phone Explosion
To elaborate, Ye Yao’s jinxing ability was something that developed only after she had been forcefully sent overseas. It seemed to be a kind of self-protection ability. When she was overseas, she was bullied and tormented every day. And every day, she could only curse those who bullied her.
One day, unexpectedly, whoever she cursed became unlucky, and moreover, whatever she cursed came true. If she wished a stomachache on someone, that person would end up with a stomachache all day. If she wished a broken leg on someone, that person would end up with a broken leg even while just walking. And if she wished blistered lips on someone, that person would develop blisters on their lips, and so on. As long as she spoke a curse, it would be extremely effective. After that, no one dared to bully her.
Ye Tianhao was still shouting into the phone, “Ye Yao, are you trying to anger me to death?! Why are you so disobedient?! Also, why did you report the loss of your bank card?! Cancel the report right now! Otherwise, get me a new bank card!”
As Ye Yao continued to cut through her steak, her eyes flashed with a cold glint.
Ye Tianhao’s current company belonged to Ye Yao’s maternal grandfather. Before his death, he had willed 30% of the shares to Ye Yao. As Ye Yao was only 12 years old at that time, her guardian, Ye Tianhao, managed her assets. She had a dividend card for the company’s shares, and her monthly income was more than two million yuan. All that time, Ye Tianhao had been spending the money made available by this card. Five years ago, when He He married Ye Tianhao with Ye Sui in tow, he gave the card to He He and Ye Sui. As for Ye Yao… she only had a supplementary card given by Ye Tianhao, which had a usage limit of 5,000 yuan a month.
Ye Yao had never spent a single cent of the money in her own dividend card, on the contrary, Ye Sui and He He squandered it recklessly. He He even provided for her excellent relatives. Anyone could spend Ye Yao’s money, except Ye Yao. He He and Ye Sui’s monthly expenses came up to more than a million yuan, but Ye Yao only had a pitiful five thousand yuan a month.
This was Ye Tianhao! Her very own father! Ye Yao sneered. “If you can get a new card, do it by all means. Just don’t expect me to do it. Oh right, my dear father, you have to be careful when you use your cell phone. After all, they tend to explode.”
“Arghhhh…” Ye Tianhao screamed on the other end of the phone.
Ye Yao exclaimed softly and hung up the voice call. She no longer wanted Ye Tianhao as her father. All her miseries in life were given to her by him. Her fiancé had been stolen by Ye Sui, but he did not blame that girl. Instead, he sent her overseas to suffer.
Huo Buyu frowned after Ye Yao hung up. “Ye Yao, I can help you teach someone a lesson. Just don’t use your ability casually.”
Ye Yao shrugged. “But I enjoy cursing him! Making his phone explode is letting him off easy really.” Ye Yao was filled with resentment towards Ye Tianhao.
Huo Buyu was angry, but he couldn’t do anything to Ye Yao. After all, it was her mouth. What could he do? Sew up Ye Yao’s mouth? He couldn’t do that. He couldn’t bear to.
Ye Yao sent a text message to Huo Buyu. “Help me freeze this bank card completely. No one is to reapply for it. The money in the account may not be moved either. Only deposits are allowed, but no withdrawals.”
Huo Buyu replied, “Sure, but you are not to use your ability frivolously anymore. Swear it.”
Ye Yao nodded perfunctorily. “Alright, alright, I swear.”
Huo Buyu didn’t know what to say. His head hurt. He had no idea what to do with Ye Yao. The girl was like a wild runaway horse!
Huo Buyu massaged his forehead. “Master Gui Yi has gone wandering. I don’t know when he’ll be back. I’ve contacted him. After he returns from his wandering, he’ll take a look at what’s going on with you and if he can remove your jinxing ability.”
Ye Yao wished she could punch Huo Buyu! She didn’t think that having the ability to jinx things was a bad thing. On the contrary, she could use this ability to protect herself.
Of course, Ye Yao did not know how she ended up with this jinxing ability that had come out of nowhere. She was an atheist and did not believe in these strange powers at all. But now, such a thing was happening to her. It was too strange.
Ye Yao replied, “If you wish to seek him out, go ahead. Just don’t get in my way.” With that, she lowered her head and continued with her video game.
Huo Buyu’s head started to hurt again. Ever since he met Ye Yao, his headache had never stopped!
After a while, Ye Yao’s phone ran out of battery and powered off. She reached out to Huo Buyu. “Give me your phone.”
Huo Buyu kept a large amount of confidential business information in his cell phone, but what could he do now that Ye Yao asked him for the device? Of course, he handed it over without hesitation!
