The man looked to be in his forties or fifties. Judging from his build and attire, he must have been a handsome guy when he was young!

His eyes lit up the moment he saw Chu Ping.

"Pingping! Is it really you?"

"For so many years, I thought you... I thought I would never see you again!"

"mediocre!"

He was about to step forward and hug Chu Ping.

Chu Ping said with a look of disgust, "Stand there and don't move!"

Qin Jianshe quickly stopped and stood still.

She didn't move her body, but she couldn't stop her mouth from asking, "Where has Pingping been all these years?"

"I sent many people to search, but we couldn't find it..."

Chu Ping crossed his arms, his face full of disdain. "You think you can find out my whereabouts?"

"To be honest, a few days ago someone reported seeing you at a bar called Ghostly World, but I didn't believe it..."

Following her gaze, he turned to Ling Yue and asked, "Is this the owner of that bar?"

As he spoke, he approached Ling Yue and looked her up and down, saying, "She looks like an ordinary little girl..."

He couldn't understand it. His subordinates said that Chu Ping was working for this little girl. He hadn't believed it from the beginning. How could that be?

Back in the day, Chu Ping, who dominated both the Yin and Yang realms, was working for a callow, immature girl in a small bar. What a joke!

Ling Yue felt that the man's eyes were full of disdain, which made her very uncomfortable.

"Hey, how can you talk like that? Don't think that just because you're old you can judge someone so carelessly."

Su Shiming couldn't stand it anymore and spoke in a very harsh tone.

Ling Yue tugged at Su Shiming. Qin Jianshe's reaction was probably the same as most people's. It was normal for him to question her; she really was quite ordinary...

Seeing the situation, Chu Ping immediately pulled Qin Jianshe aside.

"I think you've wasted the last twenty years of your life, you're still so fussy!"

Qin Jianshe listened and nodded repeatedly, realizing that his behavior just now was indeed somewhat abrupt.

Chu Ping didn't want to waste time here and directly explained his origins.

"Little Qin, has someone in your Qin family appeared who can communicate with your ancestors in the underworld?"

Qin Jianshe didn't react for a moment, and after a few seconds of pause, he hurriedly denied it.

"How could that be? I've always thought it was just nonsense outside, saying how powerful our Qin family is, that we sacrificed our lives for the country while we were alive, and that we can continue to serve as ghost soldiers in the underworld after we're dead."

"Does that mean someone like me, who doesn't do anything productive, doesn't deserve to be born into the Qin family?"

Chu Ping expressed his disagreement with his unorthodox remarks.

"Don't try to fool me. Do you think I don't know your own limitations?"

"Your extraordinary abilities, weren't they something you were born with?"

"You really don't know? If I find out you've been hiding something from me, I guarantee you won't live to see tomorrow!"

Seeing Chu Ping's face darken, Qin Jianshe quickly assured him, "Boss, I really don't know. I wouldn't dare lie to you!"

Seeing that he couldn't get any answers from Chu Ping, he turned and left.

Ling Yue and Su Shiming couldn't get a word in edgewise and could only act as followers.

If the "master" is leaving, then we must hurry and clear the way.

Just then, Ling Yue's phone rang, attracting the attention of many people at the pet hospital, because her ringtone was turned up to the maximum and was a rather frightening one...

Ling Yue answered the phone without even looking at it. She picked up the phone, found a quiet corner in the pet hospital, and then glanced at the caller ID. It was Jing Yucheng!

"You finally called me. Are you done with work?"

Hearing Ling Yue's voice on the other end of the phone, Jing Yucheng felt inexplicably happy.

"Sorry, Xiaoyue, I'm only just checking my phone now."

Where are you now? Are you alright?

Ling Yue thought for a moment, realizing they were still on someone else's turf, so she didn't say much.

I'll tell you the specifics when we meet.

"How's everything at home? Is Grandpa alright?"

"Grandpa is fine. I've found what you asked me to look up. I'll send it to you on WeChat later."

After Chu Ping's explanation, Ling Yue became even more curious about the Qin family.

"Jing Yucheng, how much do you know about the Qin family in Kyoto?"

Why are you suddenly so interested in the Qin family?

Jing Yucheng looked up at the man in front of him, somewhat reluctant to mention the Qin family.

"I just think they're so mysterious!"

Jing Yucheng tapped the table lightly with his index finger. "I'll explain it to you properly later."

Seeing that Chu Ping and the others were standing in the lobby of the pet hospital, seemingly waiting for her, Ling Yue didn't know what else to say to Jing Yucheng and hurriedly hung up the phone.

*

Jing Yucheng put down the phone and looked up at the person sitting across from him at his desk.

"Mr. Qin, is there something you need?"

"You even found my study?"

Qin Huai said with a smile, "Was that Ling Yue who just called you?"

"As expected, I like what you like too."

"What should I do? I fell in love with her at first sight!"

"Shouldn't she be an adult by now?"

Qin Huai raised his hand to touch his lips, as if he wanted to say something more, but the next second he was slammed against a wall three meters away by a powerful force, and his whole body slowly slid to the floor.

Immediately afterwards, blood started flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Qin Huai walked shakily step by step to Jing Yucheng.

He grinned and said, "What? Is that all you've got?"

Jing Yucheng felt nauseous looking at the blood in his mouth.

"Get lost and don't ever come out in front of me and her again, or don't blame me for being impolite."

"Don't let me hear another word about her from your filthy mouth. You don't deserve it!"

Immediately afterwards, an invisible force threw Qin Huai out of the door, and the door slammed shut.

It took Jing Yucheng a while to calm his anger.

I haven't been angry in a long time...

Qin Huai, who was thrown to the floor again, lay down, panting heavily, not caring how much blood he had lost, and continued to laugh maniacally.

so good!

Jing Yucheng has found a weakness~

At the pet hospital, Ling Yue had just hung up the phone when she realized she couldn't move her leg.

She looked down and was almost scared to death.

There was a snake tightly coiled around her ankles, its head raised, staring at her and flicking its tongue, as if it were about to bite her leg at any moment.

Ling Yue was so frightened that her body trembled, large beads of sweat rolled down her forehead, and she didn't dare to breathe.

How to do?

Standing still like this isn't a solution.

Ling Yue finally managed to turn her head, hoping that Su Shiming could see her.

But it was obvious that the guy wouldn't see him, because he was chatting away with Qin Jianshe, almost to the point of using both hands and feet!

Just as Ling Yue was feeling desperate, she suddenly saw the sweet girl who had been holding the kitten walk over.

"Hey, what a coincidence!"

"You're here? Why aren't you with them?"

As she spoke, the sweet girl pointed to the location of Qin Jianshe and the others. Ling Yue didn't dare to speak, and could only keep gesturing to her with the image of her idol to look at her feet.

Sweetie was indeed very perceptive. Following Ling Yue's gaze, she finally saw the flower snake that had been raising its head and flicking its tongue.

"Little flower!"

"What's wrong? If I don't keep an eye on you for a moment, you start being naughty again?"

"Get off your big sister right now!"

Little flower?

Ling Yue was completely confused. She was the only one in this corner, so who was the sweet girl talking to?

The sweet girl realized her words weren't working anymore?

The volume involuntarily rose, "Xiao Hua! Don't pretend you're deaf!"

"I'll count to three. If you don't come down by then, you'll face the consequences!"

"1,2..."

Sweetie started to doubt herself more and more, so she squatted down, intending to take a hard line.

He accidentally touched Ling Yue's bare calf and looked at Ling Yue with a look of horror.

Why is this person's body cold?

Like a dead person, it was cold...

Then, she seemed to understand why Xiaohua was ignoring her and kept pestering Lingyue.

Her body temperature is exactly what snakes love!

Seeing that Ling Yue was trembling with fright, Tianmei didn't hesitate and directly pulled the little snake off Ling Yue's ankle.

Ling Yue was finally freed and quickly stretched all her muscles. In just a short while, she felt her muscles were sore from being so tense.

The sweet girl held the small flower snake in her hand, looking apologetic. "I'm so sorry, I didn't take good care of it and caused you unnecessary trouble. I'm really sorry."

Ling Yue shook her head, not intending to pursue the matter. As long as she could get her out of trouble, she would be grateful to Sweetie!

"Is it... is it called Little Flower?"
