Chapter 162: She’s Really Incredibly Cool!

Gu Ziheng shook his head and mustered up the courage to walk towards the door.
Outside, the darkness had thickened into an impenetrable blackness, as if a pool of ink that couldn’t be dispersed. Despite the mere door separating the room, it felt like two separate worlds divided by a line drawn by the boundary of the alcoholic beverage.
Half darkness, half light.
As Gu Ziheng approached the door, he lifted his leg, only to be forcefully pushed back by an invisible barrier.
Startled, he reached out and groped in the air, finding nothing.
It was as if his being pushed back was just a figment of his imagination.
About to retract his hand, a pale hand suddenly emerged from the darkness, tightly gripping his wrist.
A chilling sensation, unlike anything human, instantly spread through his captured wrist.
Gu Ziheng’s heart sank, and he tried to pull his hand back forcefully, but the slender fingers clung onto him like iron tongs.
Tang Fei stood there, her mouth agape in fear.
As Gu Ziheng glanced around, he spotted the wine bottle that had been thrown to the ground earlier. He quickly bent down and picked it up.
Just as he was about to strike at the hand, Lu Miao stepped out from the darkness. She glanced at him and spoke directly, “I told you not to leave. Consider yourself lucky that it’s me who came out; otherwise, that strike just now would have killed you.”
Gu Ziheng shuddered as he flexed his wrist, feeling the lingering coldness from the previous touch.
Thank goodness it was this master.
But her hand was so cold?
Thinking about that abnormal temperature, he turned his head and saw Lu
Miao holding a black box with intricate patterns, about the size of a shoebox. Guessing that it contained the legendary little ghost, he quickly took a step
back.
Lu Miao walked directly to the bedside, glanced at MO Xueqing, and then turned to Tang Fei, saying, “It’s all taken care of. Besides feeling a bit weak, there shouldn’t be any other problems with her body. Let her rest well for a while. ”
“You were fortunate to encounter me nearby this time. I arrived just in time. If you entertain such thoughts again next time, you may not be so lucky.”
Considering MO Xueqing’s condition, she would likely be completely replaced within two or three days.
Fortunately, she was in Beijing, not too far away. If she were farther, Lu Miao probably wouldn’t have taken on this case.
“Understood. There won’t be a next time,” Tang Fei nodded, assuring her.
“When will Xueqing wake up and return to normal?” Tang Fei hesitated before asking again.
“It depends on her. It could be several tens of minutes or several hours,” Lu Miao replied.
Tang Fei hesitated for a moment and spoke once more, “Can we continue staying in this house?”
“No problem. Just open the windows, ventilate, and let in more sunlight. I have some other matters to attend to. I’m leaving now,” Lu Miao said, walking straight outside.
On the forum, bounty tasks required payment before being posted to prevent people from making false high bids without having the money, so she didn’t have to worry about receiving payment.
“Master, wait,” Gu Ziheng hurriedly followed her.
Lu Miao turned her head and asked, “Is there something else?”
Gu Ziheng felt somewhat embarrassed as he spoke, “Master, what do you think of my aptitude? Can I become your disciple?”
One reason was his second brother’s special situation, and the terrifying experience from last time still haunted him.
If he could learn these skills himself, he could assist his second brother if he encountered trouble again, instead of helplessly watching without being able to do anything.
The other reason was that he genuinely found her actions just now incredibly cool, and he was curious about this mysterious profession.
Lu Miao’s lip twitched, and she flatly refused, saying, “I’m sorry, I don’t accept disciples.”
“Can I add you on WeChat then?” Gu Ziheng persisted, unwilling to give up.
If he couldn’t be a disciple, it would be fine to become friends.
“I don’t have WeChat,” Lu Miao quickly left before he could ask again.
Tang Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief and pulled open all the curtains in the room, allowing the bright sunlight to fill the entire house.
The previous gloom and coldness seemed to dissipate instantly, and the house regained its warmth.
Knowing that MO Xueqing was safe, Gu Ziheng bid farewell to Tang Fei and prepared to leave.
As they reached the doorstep, he casually asked, “Tang Fei, where did you find this master?”
Tang Fei replied, “On an online forum, someone recommended her. I think her
ID was something like ‘Master Mountain River’.”
“What? Master Mountain River?” Gu Ziheng exclaimed.
If he remembered correctly, the master who helped solve his second brother’s problem was the Master Mountain River!
His grandmother and mother had even gone to the Lin family to personally meet this master, but they had always been refused.
“Yes, I think her ID was something like that. Is there a problem?” Tang Fei asked, puzzled.
She was also unaware of the details as she was introduced to this forum by someone else.
Gu Ziheng didn’t have time to explain further to her. He hurriedly rushed out of the house.
Taking the elevator downstairs, he ran all the way to the entrance of the residential complex but couldn’t find a trace of the master.
Helpless, he had to give up the search and called Tang Fei instead, asking her to send him the link to the forum. Then, he drove to the TV station.
By the time he finished his busy day and returned to his residence, it was already around eight or nine in the evening. Lu Miao, for once, wasn’t studying in the upstairs bedroom. She was holding a tablet, playing a game.
Gu Ziheng approached and sneakily glanced at the tablet, seeing the familiar ID that was playing with Lu Miao’s team. He clenched his teeth.
That bastard Lu Yinan has been playing games with his sister-in-law way too often lately.
There’s definitely some ulterior motive behind it!
He reached out and picked up the remote control from the nearby table, turning on the TV. “Youth Trainee” is premiering today. Let’s see if there’s anything that needs improvement.”
Sure enough, as soon as Lu Miao heard this, she quickly ended the battle in her game and quit.
Gu Ziheng really put in the effort for this talent show, from the initial training on the island to every group performance, stage design, and even personally participating in the production of the theme song, striving for perfection in every aspect.
And judging from the broadcasting results, the program production, including costumes and makeup, is much better than “Idol 99”.
Although the early stage of closed training did cost a lot of money, the contestants excelled in singing and dancing, surpassing their counterparts in skill.
The only downside is probably the post-production editing and marketing.
As the two of them were engrossed in their discussion, the door opened, and Gu Shiyan finally finished his busy work and returned.
At a glance, he saw the two of them with their heads almost together. He reached out to unbutton his cuffs while walking over and directly grabbed Gu Ziheng’s collar, unceremoniously pulling him away.
In a serious tone, he said, “Sit properly.”
Gu Ziheng pouted, about to retort, but suddenly remembered the encounter with the Master Mountain River at MO Xueqing’s place in the morning. He immediately turned his head excitedly and said to him, “Bro, I met the Master Mountain River today!”
