The next day, Chi Shuyan woke up as usual and took the bus to school.

Chi Shuyan was a low-key person, but she had been taking leave frequently in the first six months of school. Her classmates would occasionally look at her strangely, but Chi Shuyan didn’t take it seriously. She made up her mind to study hard from now on and improve every day. She wouldn’t take leave no matter what. In any case, as long as she was low-key and serious enough, she could always overcome the barrier between her and her classmates.

It was Counselor Zhang’s class in the morning. Chi Shuyan listened seriously during the first and second periods. On the podium, Counselor Zhang relaxed and was relieved to see Chi Shuyan listening seriously.

Counselor Zhang could be said to be in a very good mood today. Almost the entire class could see that he was radiating happiness.

The most direct example was that in the past, if a student secretly played with their phone in class, Counselor Zhang would definitely chastise them severely. Today, however, he caught a student playing games on their phone, and Counselor Zhang only said a few words of warning, which could definitely be considered gentle for him.

After class, some students curiously asked Counselor Zhang if something good had happened to him. Counselor Zhang joked around with the students, but naturally didn’t tell them the reason, and just told them to study hard.

Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but look at Counselor Zhang’s face. She saw that his luck had been very good recently. There was a red spot between his eyebrows, which indicated that he might be promoted. No, this promotion was most likely set in stone.

Seeing that Counselor Zhang could be promoted to a leadership position, Chi Shuyan was in a good mood and was happy for him.

In any case, she felt that Counselor Zhang was a good and very responsible teacher who was conscientious whether in his teaching or caring for his students.

Just as Chi Shuyan was feeling happy for Counselor Zhang, he suddenly stopped at the door and called out to her. “Shuyan, come with me. I have something to say to you!”

Zhen Yu, who had just walked up to Chi Shuyan, immediately patted her shoulder and said, “Shuyan, Shuyan, Counselor Zhang is calling for you. Hurry and go!”

Chi Shuyan smiled at Zhen Yu, but when she saw Yang Lan next to her, her smile faded. Yang Lan, on the other hand, acted as if the previous incident had never happened, and was as enthusiastic as ever. “Shuyan, what are you staring at? Counselor Zhang is calling for you!”

Chi Shuyan was a bit stumped when she heard Yang Lan’s words. If it wasn’t for the fact that the other party’s expression was still a bit unnatural, she really would have thought that she was imagining things.

As the saying went, don’t slap a smiling face. She nodded at Yang Lan before walking over to Counselor Zhang.

Counselor Zhang was in a really good mood. Looking at the student who had helped his family and brought him good luck, he was grateful and fond of her.

Counselor Zhang’s tone was very gentle. Chi Shuyan didn’t ask him right away what was going on, but obediently followed him to his office.

Counselor Zhang’s office was still the same, and he was the only one there at the moment.

Two or three teachers shared the office. Since the other teachers weren’t around, Counselor Zhang closed the door and pulled out a chair for Chi Shuyan to sit down.

“Counselor Zhang?” Chi Shuyan raised her eyebrows, confusion in her eyes.

For a moment, Counselor Zhang really didn’t know how to tell this student about Director Huang asking for talismans.

In short, this matter started with Shuyan taking leave to go drawing with Old Chen. Counselor Zhang believed that Shuyan was a capable student, so he believed everything she said, including about the ghost.

He had been so scared when Shuyan saw that something would happen to Old Chen when he was out.

Counselor Zhang panicked at that time. Just in case, he directly agreed to Shuyan’s suggestion and had her go with Old Chen and the others. He never thought that something really would happen.

He didn’t know the exact details, but he learned from Old Yu and Old Chen that if it wasn’t for Shuyan, it wouldn’t just be the two of them, but the entire bus of students would have lost their lives.

When he heard this, Counselor Zhang was terrified, especially when he found out that Old Yu and Old Chen had really encountered some thing. For example, that thing had possessed Jiang Tongle, and had sat on the bus with them next to Teacher Cai. Counselor Zhang was so scared that he got goosebumps when he heard that.

In the end, Director Huang was also implicated in this matter. Counselor Zhang was even more shaken by the deaths of Cai Xuanqiao and Jiang Tongle. The school had kept this matter quiet. To prevent panic, they said that the two had died in an accident. However, Counselor Zhang was well aware of the truth.

Of course, even if he didn’t believe Old Chen and Old Yu, hadn’t he seen Director Huang lying in the hospital? He heard from Old Yu and Old Chen that Director Huang’s injuries had been caused by that ghost thing.

And this incident made Director Huang, who especially hated feudal superstitions, change his behavior. He now believed in Buddhism, and was especially superstitious.

If Counselor Zhang hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that Director Huang, who hated feudal superstitions so much, would one day beg him for a talisman, and sleep with a Buddha statue in his arms.

When he saw Director Huang at that time, Counselor Zhang felt complicated. He couldn’t help but recall how Director Huang had accidentally seen the talisman on his wrist and scolded him terribly. After that incident, Director Huang had been prejudiced against him.

After Director Huang woke up this time, his attitude toward Counselor Zhang changed drastically. He even promised to promote him. At that time, Counselor Zhang had been overwhelmed.

Of course, he also knew that this difference in treatment was largely because of Shuyan.

Director Huang probably knew what Shuyan was capable of.

Counselor Zhang had really benefited because of Shuyan.

Because of Shuyan, Old Yu and Old Chen were especially polite to him now and especially envied him for having such a capable student.

He now felt more and more that this student was his life benefactor.

Counselor Zhang didn’t hesitate for long, nor did he beat around the bush. He directly said, “Shuyan, Director Huang just woke up and said that he wants you to help him see if there’s anything wrong with the hospital. He also wants to buy Exorcism Talismans from you!”

When he said this, Counselor Zhang was still a little embarrassed on Director Huang’s behalf.

After listening to Counselor Zhang, Chi Shuyan was stunned and blurted out, “When did he become so superstitious?”

As she spoke, she couldn’t help but recall how Director Huang hated superstitions to the core. In fact, most feudal superstitions couldn’t be trusted, but some still had to be believed.

Of course, it was mainly because the contrast between before and after was too great. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but think of how Director Huang had started to become superstitious. It made for quite an interesting picture, and she couldn’t help but want to laugh. However, thinking about it, if a normal person truly encountered an evil spirit, it would naturally be impossible for them not to believe in it.

Director Huang was also a normal person. It was impossible for him not to be traumatized after being so ‘intimate’ with that ghost thing.

Chi Shuyan didn’t have a good impression of Director Huang, who bullied the weak but feared the strong. In addition, he had deliberately made things difficult for Counselor Zhang and her several times, so she naturally gloated a little in her heart.

There were too many people in this world who were like Director Huang. However, this sort of person wasn’t really a bad person. They would disgust others at most, and didn’t do anything really bad.

After listening to Shuyan and not hearing her reply for a long time, Counselor Zhang felt even more embarrassed and nervous for Director Huang.

It was mainly because if Shuyan didn’t agree, he would have to tell Director Huang no. However, that didn’t stop Counselor Zhang from respecting his student’s opinion.

He remembered clearly how Director Huang had scolded him and Shuyan back then. He himself already bore a grudge, let alone a student much younger than him.

He was fine with it if Shuyan didn’t agree. He felt that Director Huang should personally come and beg Shuyan in order to show some sincerity.

But every time he thought of how Director Huang had started to become superstitious and hugged a Buddha statue to sleep, Counselor Zhang didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He also thought of Director Huang’s pale face in the hospital ward. Counselor Zhang was soft-hearted, and it didn’t take long for his hard heart to soften again.

However, he still respected his student’s opinion.

Afraid that Shuyan would feel pressured to help Director Huang, he said, “Shuyan, don’t worry, you can do whatever you want. You don’t have to think about anything else. This time, it’s Director Huang who is asking you for a favor! You don’t have to worry!”

Chi Shuyan was quite moved by Counselor Zhang’s concern. It was also because of this that she had a particularly good impression of him. Although she didn’t like Director Huang, she didn’t have time to waste making things difficult for him. She took out a few Exorcism Talismans for Counselor Zhang to pass to Director Huang. Each talisman cost 200,000 yuan. It was up to him whether or not he was willing to buy them. She also gave Counselor Zhang her account number.

Chi Shuyan didn’t feel the slightest bit guilty about setting such an exorbitant price. She saw that Director Huang had relied on his position to unscrupulously reap gains all these years. He definitely could afford it, and she could indirectly avenge herself and Counselor Zhang.
