Zhou Kai sucked in cold air.
This female spirit was really vicious!
A man’s life in this world was all about money, but in the end, it was also all about making love.
When one’s ability to make love was erased, what was the meaning of life?
“In that case… I can consider it. However, you have to tell me first what kind of grudge you are holding that makes you so vicious,” Zhou Kai said.
I’m not the one someone is taking revenge on, so it doesn’t matter even if I can’t make love. Besides, in a society with more men and fewer women, the other male compatriots will thank me if I get rid of another male competitor.
The female spirit said, sounding full of resentment, “He took my money and helped another woman make a living. When I questioned him, he pushed me into the water and drowned me to death. Tell me whether I should take revenge for that or not.”
Zhou Kai curled his lips. “So it’s a wound caused by love. Well, I’m not interested in some rich woman holding a grudge against a pretty boy. Let’s get straight to the point. How do you want me to help you? Should I just make a move and cripple him?”
The female spirit answered, “No, I need to take revenge on my own to vent my hatred. You just need to get him to Lake Liu.”
Zhou Kai shook his head. “This is a bit hard now that the street is full of surveillance cameras. I’m sure I won’t be able to hide it from the police if I do this. I won’t be able to escape if something happens either.”
“Count me in.” Suddenly, a voice was heard. Little Leopard Cat had spoken.
Zhou Kai looked over.
Little Leopard Cat said with interest, “I have a mesmerizing magic that can confuse him into going to Lake Liu by himself.”
Zhou Kai’s eyes lit up.
This girl really did know magic, and he had nearly been duped by it. If she made a move, that would be perfect.
“Alright, I agree. However, I want to take the house first to seal this deal.” Zhou Kai looked at the female spirit with a serious expression.
The female spirit answered firmly, “You help me first.”
Zhou Kai laughed. “You have to remember that you’re the one begging me now, not the other way around. It’s just a house. Given the fact that I’m such a capable person, my future is limitless. I don’t care how many houses you have. I found you pitiful and I showed you kindness. However, if you don’t believe me, that’s fine. It’s just that there aren’t many people like me who can communicate with spirits, and not everyone has such a kind heart. Think about it yourself.”
Then, Zhou Kai lay down on the bed with his hands on his head, crossed his legs, and shook them in a leisurely manner.
The female spirit, who was gloomy, glared at Zhou Kai for a moment and said as she gritted her teeth, “Fine, I agree. If you take the house and don’t help me, I’ll curse you even if my soul disperses.”
Zhou Kai got up and responded with a smile, “Don’t worry. I recognize one thing in life, and that is fairness. I’ll do what I promised you.”
The female spirit’s face softened as it said, “In that case, when do you want to see the house?”
“Rather than fixing a date, let’s do it today,” Zhou Kai answered firmly.
After changing into new clothes and tidying up, Zhou Kai went out again with Little Leopard Cat.
Lady luck had come. He could make a fortune even by lying at home, which Zhou Kai had experienced that day.
He was still pondering how to find a place for Little Leopard Cat, but he hadn’t expected that the spirit would give him one.
It seemed that after that strange encounter, his luck had changed for the better.
He called Didi1 and arrived at the female spirit’s house.
Yes, Mount Hong was indeed on the back, and it was facing the Red River. The female spirit had been right to say that her house was close to a mountain, faced the water, and was in an elegant environment.
However, what was this old courtyard?
Around the Red River Bay, the houses stretched for a long distance. There were dozens of families, each of them in a brick-and-tile house with a courtyard, and the style was very nice. However, the buildings were now basically dilapidated, so there were only three to five families who had the lights on in their houses.
The female spirit’s house was among one of the courtyards.
What left Zhou Kai speechless was that just across the Red River, which was no more than ten meters wide, the side of the river was brightly lit and there was an area full of villas.
“Are we going the wrong way?” Zhou Kai asked seriously as he looked at the female spirit.
The female spirit replied, “There has been no mistake. It’s here.”
Zhou Kai’s face sank.
He didn’t really care about the house. Since he’d had a strange encounter, what wouldn’t he experience in the future?
All he cared about was finally having a place for Little Leopard Cat. This could relieve him of temporary financial distress, as he was hard-pressed for money now.
It was good.
He actually thought it would be a surprise. He he… Could anyone even stay in such a place?
The female spirit, who thought Zhou Kai had given up, said, “This is my inherited house and the future demolition site. When Anyang City expands, this place will increase in value by dozens of times. Look across the street. That place was demolished two years ago and villas were built.”
Zhou Kai said helplessly, “I’m not finding this place bad. I don’t want a demolished house, but a house to stay. You had the money to get a pretty boy. Don’t you have a smaller house in the city?”
The female spirit answered, “I did, but that b*stard sold it. He even transferred the ownership of my shop.”
Zhou Kai was speechless.
How stupid was this woman to get cheated out of her money and body by a man who harmed her? She deserved to be killed.
“This place is not uninhabitable, as it’s fully equipped with water and electricity. Furthermore, I grew up here. This place has a lot of memories. I even had it specially renovated last year. With a simple clean-up, you could live here,” the female spirit added.
Zhou Kai, who was at his wits’ end, could only go in to take a look.
Well, it looked old-fashioned but it really wasn’t messy inside. The kitchen, the bedroom, the pigsty, and the chicken coop were exactly the same style as in the ’80s.
Despite his first impression, it seemed like it would be nice to live there.
At least, it would be nice to live in a house with a big courtyard, as he would have to cram into a very small space if he was living in someone else’s house.
In addition, this place wasn’t far from the city, which was approximately a thirty-minute bike ride away. There were no high-rise buildings or road traffic around, and it was also quiet enough. After strolling for a few rounds, Zhou Kai changed his mind.
“Okay, I accept the house. I can help you take revenge now. Do you know where the man who harmed you is?” Zhou Kai asked.
The female spirit’s eyes lit up as it hurriedly replied, “I know that he goes to the nightclub every night. That b*stard sold my house and shop for money and he gets a new woman every day. It’s just disgusting.”
Zhou Kai said, “Can you only take revenge if I bring him to Lake Liu?”
The female spirit answered bitterly, “I died in Lake Liu and obtained the Yin Qi there to form my grievance. Lake Liu is my home ground. If I leave Lake Liu, I’ll be a lonely spirit. I won’t be able to do anything, and there’s a chance that my soul will disperse.”
Zhou Kai looked at Little Leopard Cat.
Little Leopard Cat nodded her head, confirming that this was indeed the case.
Zhou Kai said, “Alright. We’ll find him first.”
After leaving the courtyard, they arrived at a lively street under the female spirit’s guidance.
It was a street of bars and the most lively place in Anyang at night. Every night, countless men and women would flock there and find all kinds of getaways.
Zhou Kai had heard of this place before but had never been there, not because he hadn’t thought about it but because he had no money.
He set foot there for the first time at the busiest time of the day.
People were coming and going on the street, but he naturally ignored the men. He only focused on the long white legs and alluring postures, which pleased his eye.
