Chapter 1279: Strange Buddha Pendant

Although the method Qin Qing mentioned flustered and scared Xu Tong a little, she was still quite grateful for Qin Qing’s good intentions toward her and the child.
She had always been a soft-hearted person, and her heart softened a little at Qin Qing’s words. However, she wasn’t really stupid, and knew that there were some things she really couldn’t touch. She had ideas of her own, but still thanked Qin Qing and also told her that her husband was willing to let her do an audition.
Qin Qing’s calm demeanor immediately changed, and she became very excited and overjoyed. “Tong Tong, thank you so much. Did Shenglin really agree? I really don’t know how to thank you! Tong Tong, thank you so much!”
Xu Tong felt that this was just a small matter. Although her husband was willing to give Qin Qing a chance to audition, he had always been very strict when it came to acting skills. As for Qin Qing’s acting skills, they were from the same agency; although Qin Qing’s acting skills were better than Xu Tong’s, they really weren’t that good. What if Qin Qing didn’t pass the audition?
That was very possible, given what Shenglin was like. Xu Tong wanted to say something, but stopped. However, she did hope the best for Qin Qing. She just said, “Ah Qing, work hard! Work hard, you can definitely do it!”!!
Qin Qing, on the other hand, thought that Ruan Shenglin was willing to open the back door for her, so she naturally didn’t ask any more. Before ending the call, Qin Qing repeatedly stressed that Xu Tong had to ‘bless’ the Buddha pendant with blood and put it under her pillow; it would be good for both mother and child.
After hanging up, Xu Tong looked at the black Buddha pendant on the table. After wavering back and forth, she ultimately still didn’t plan to put it under her pillow.
She had seen many people in the industry keep imps or use all sorts of other strange methods to become famous. Before they could become famous, however, they went crazy. She didn’t believe in superstitions, but maybe believed a little in the expert Qin Qing mentioned. However, she was still very afraid of things like that.
She just wanted her baby to be born safely.
Xu Tong thought about it. Qin Qing had good intentions, after all, so she couldn’t throw the Buddha pendant away, and could only call for the housekeeper, Aunt Cai. Aunt Cai had been the couple’s housekeeper for five or six years, and had a very good relationship with Xu Tong and Ruan Shenglin. They got along well and the couple didn’t put on airs with her. Aunt Cai had a good temperament and had ties to Xu Tong’s family, so she especially liked to work in the Ruan residence and usually did her best.
The couple also addressed her as ‘Aunt’ since she was a generation older, and Aunt Cai just called them by their names.
When Xu Tong called for her, Aunt Cai thought that something had happened. She rushed over and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong, Tong Tong?”
Xu Tong handed the black Buddha pendant to Aunt Cai and said, “This is a gift from a friend of mine. She said that it’s from an expert. Aunt Cai, I’m pregnant now, so this is taboo. Help me put it away first! Give it to me after I give birth in the future!”
Unlike Xu Tong, who was used to seeing all sorts of sinister and superstitious things in the circle, Aunt Cai was a genuinely superstitious person. Hearing Xu Tong say “expert,” her eyes lit up. She couldn’t help but advise, “Tong Tong, this is a gift from an expert. Why are you asking me to put this away? It might be good for you and Shenglin.”
Aunt Cai took the Buddha pendant and looked at it carefully.
This black Buddha statue was especially lifelike and looked 80 to 90% like the Maitreya Buddha. It had a smile on its face that inexplicably made people feel uncomfortable. While other Buddha statues had benevolent-looking smiles, there was something about the smile on this Buddha which made Aunt Cai shiver and feel inexplicably uneasy.
Aunt Cai stared seriously at the Buddha pendant for a long moment. It was as if the Buddha pendant was grinning malevolently at her. Aunt Cai was so scared that her hand shook. She subconsciously wanted to throw the Buddha pendant away, but it was as if it was stuck to her palm. Her eyes filled with terror and cold sweat broke out on her forehead. An inexplicable fear and chill in her heart made her panic.
Xu Tong’s words cleared her head. When Aunt Cai came back to her senses, she averted her eyes with difficulty. When her gaze swept over the Buddha pendant that she was holding one more time, she felt a chill run down her spine, her limbs and bones felt cold, and her surroundings seemed to turn eerie, which made her panic.
Aunt Cai shook as she hurriedly put the Buddha pendant back on the table. She suddenly wanted to say that she didn’t think this thing was good, but it was as if the Buddha pendant was staring at her.
Aunt Cai was so scared that her face turned pale and she staggered back a few steps; she didn’t dare utter a word.
Xu Tong saw that something was wrong with Aunt Cai and hurriedly asked, “Aunt Cai, what’s wrong?”
Aunt Cai shook her head in a daze and hurriedly said, “It’s fine, it’s fine, Tong Tong! I’ll get a box for this!”
Xu Tong felt quite relieved after handing the Buddha pendant to Aunt Cai. She would revisit the matter after the child was born.
On Chi Shuyan’s side, she hadn’t found any leads on that expert. Except for classes, she had quite some free time lately. The only thing that troubled her was that Qi Zhenbai still came to find her three times a day, regardless of rain or shine. For example, when she woke up in the morning, she saw a certain man parked outside the villa, and he took the initiative to send her to school.
After the morning classes, he would be waiting for her outside the school, and would ask her out for a meal; he did the same thing again after classes ended in the evening.
She didn’t understand why the man was so free recently.
After leaving the hospital before, Chi Shuyan had thought that given the man’s temper, he probably wouldn’t contact her. To draw a clear line between them, she woke up even earlier to leave the house in the morning, and obediently ate lunch and dinner in the canteen. As for whether or not the man waited for her outside school, she didn’t care.
She just hoped that after waiting futilely for a few days, he wouldn’t bother her anymore.
She felt like the other party had put a tracking chip on her. Otherwise, why did she run into him everywhere?
