Chapter 378: Buying a Haunted House
“Like I said, just use my name! You don’t have to call me Celestial Master!” Chi Shuyan said.
“Yes, Miss Shuyan!” Chef Li and the young attendant beside him immediately corrected themselves. Only Li Yu still feigned aloofness and deliberately didn’t talk to Chi Shuyan. He snorted from time to time, but was always watching her out of the corner of his eye.
How could Chi Shuyan not see the little fatty sizing her up? She stepped forward and pinched his little face again. Li Yu puffed up his baby fat cheeks and said angrily, “You don’t even want to be this king’s consort, so why are you pinching my face?!”
“You’re cute!”
“You…” Li Yu was so angry that his face flushed red.
After teasing the little fatty, Chi Shuyan’s eyes fell on the dense yin energy inside the villa, and gave Chef Li a few more instructions. The yin energy here was too much, and could easily draw attention. It had to be covered up no matter what.
Although these three were ghosts that had lived for hundreds of years, their skills were still alright, and Chef Li’s culinary skills were good. However, they really lacked fighting strength. It was fine scaring ordinary people, but it would be difficult for them to deal with a Celestial Master with a bit of skill.
Chi Shuyan thought that if it wasn’t for the fact that the Celestial Masters whom the previous owners or the management company had found were all swindlers, these three might have been dealt with long ago.
Chi Shuyan was about to leave, when she suddenly heard someone screaming for help. Wasn’t that Agent Chen?
Chef Li hurriedly explained that he had been afraid in the past that too many people would disturb them, so he had used a little trick. It was commonly known as a ghost wall. Ordinary people could enter the house, but it was extremely difficult for them to leave. Those who did leave then didn’t dare come back.
Chi Shuyan nodded and let them go back inside first. They didn’t have to worry about anything else.
“Yes, Miss Shuyan!”
Chef Li took his young master and the young attendant back inside. Li Yu still looked reluctantly at Chi Shuyan, then suddenly rushed up to her and said, “Do you really have a boyfriend? Can that man compare with this royal one?”
Chi Shuyan looked at the little fatty in front of her, who puffed up his baby fat cheeks and asked in a childish voice if Qi Zhenbai, that man, could compare with him. Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but laugh. She pursed her lips and patted the little guy’s head. “The two of you can compare yourselves in the future!”
With that, she quickly entered the villa and followed Agent Chen’s cry for help until she found him, then brought him out.
At that moment, Agent Chen’s face was deathly pale and he was drenched in cold sweat as if he had just been fished out of water. He had just been rescued, but he still couldn’t snap out of it. He kept tugging at Chi Shuyan’s sleeve to indicate that something was wrong.
“Agent Chen, it’s fine! You’re out!” Chi Shuyan then gave Agent Chen, who was in a trance, a Wake-up Talisman.
Only then did Agent Chen wake up. When he saw that he had really left the haunted villa, he was excited and resolved never to come back to this haunted villa in the future, even if he could make a profit from it.
Taking advantage of the moment that the other party had just come back to his senses, Chi Shuyan haggled on the price for the villa.
Agent Chen was shocked. “You… you… you still want this…” Halfway through his sentence, Agent Chen was afraid that she would renege on the deal, and immediately agreed. The price was also reduced by another 5 million, which meant that Chi Shuyan would be getting this villa for 33 million.
Afraid that a problem would crop up halfway, Chi Shuyan transferred half the amount as a deposit and told the other party to hurry up with the paperwork for her property. Agent Chen was even more afraid than her of something going wrong, and said that he would help get the paperwork done and give her the land title within a week.
Agent Chen finally heaved a sigh of relief after selling the villa. He didn’t want to stay here any longer, and quickly left.
Before he left, Chi Shuyan gave him a small box of pastries made by Chef Li. Whatever the case, he had come with her to look at the house, and had been scared so miserably.
