After being forced into a marriage of convenience, a master of metaphysics manipulates a cold and al

She was as beautiful as ever, but looked somewhat tired.

Especially those two huge dark circles under her eyes, which even makeup can't cover up.

More importantly, the area between Tong Yan's originally fair and smooth eyebrows now had a faint bluish tinge.

A dark or bluish discoloration between the eyebrows is not a good sign.

Ordinary people wouldn't notice, but someone well-versed in feng shui and physiognomy would immediately sense the abnormality in the youthful appearance.

"how do you know?"

The child's mouth dropped open in surprise.

She has indeed been having nightmares these past few days and has hardly slept well at all.

Dark circles under the eyes are a minor issue, but if this continues, it could even lead to sudden death.

What's even stranger is that every time she has a nightmare, it's the same one!

There was always a strange black snake crawling up to the ceiling, staring at her with its cold, terrifying eyes...

Every time Tong Yan dreams of this place, he wakes up in fright.

Girls are naturally afraid of snakes, let alone this snake with such terrifying eyes.

Where have you been lately? Who have you been in contact with?

After listening to Tong Yan's description, Ye Bai frowned slightly and continued, "Think carefully, make sure you don't overlook anything. I suspect you've been possessed by something unclean..."

"Something unclean? You mean... a ghost?"

Tong Yan was taken aback at first, then her pretty face turned pale.

"There's a ghost!"

Even Shen Lu, who was sitting to the side, was no better off. She almost jumped onto the sofa, her little face filled with terror.

Like snakes, ghosts, these mystical creatures, are clearly a woman's natural enemy.

"...The unclean things mentioned in feng shui are completely different from the 'ghosts' you imagine."

Ye Bai shook his head helplessly. Ordinary people always like to confuse "dirty things" with "ghosts" and then get scared and burn incense and pray to Buddha everywhere.

I spent a lot of money and suffered a lot, but the problem was not necessarily solved, and in the end, it caused me to have mental problems.

This is also why feudal superstitions must be banned; sometimes they can really be harmful.

"What the hell is that?"

Upon hearing that it wasn't a "ghost," Tong Yan and Shen Lu instantly perked up, their large eyes filled with curiosity.

Timid yet curious, inexperienced yet playful, this woman perfectly embodies the characteristics of both big and small women.

"This thing can't be explained in just a few words. You can think of it as something that can disrupt a person's own magnetic field..."

Ye Bai shook his head and gave a brief explanation.

"But I haven't been out of the country at all during this period..."

Tong Yan began to recall carefully.

Ye Bai wasn't in a hurry. He sipped his tea and strolled around Tong Yan's office with Shen Lu.

Unlike Queen Qin's office, which has sunflower seeds and snacks, these two foodies can only find other ways to kill time.

Fortunately, Tong Yan didn't have much time to think.

“I definitely haven’t gone out during this period, and I haven’t contacted anyone outside of the TV station.”

A dozen minutes later, Tong Yan said with absolute certainty.

She wasn't one of those girls who went to nightclubs looking for "good luck" in getting pregnant, where she could meet all sorts of strangers.

Her social circle, apart from Qin Wanqing's family, was limited to Jingzhou TV Station.

Especially after Li Decai's sudden accident, many of the tasks that were originally his responsibility had to be temporarily handed over to Tong Yan by the TV station, which instantly increased her workload by nearly half.

So during this period, Tong Yan was extremely busy, working overtime until almost midnight every day, and it was impossible for her to go out.

"That's a bit strange... Take me to your dorm room."

Ye Bai thought for a moment and then said.

He had just carefully looked around Tong Yan's office and found nothing unusual.

If Tong Yan can truly confirm that she has not been in contact with any outsiders, then there are basically only two possible reasons left.

Either there's a problem with the TV station's internal staff, or there's a problem with Tong Yan's dormitory.

Even though Ye Bai is a big shot in the Xuanmen sect, he doesn't have the ability to predict the future with his fingers. He can only investigate one thing at a time.

In short, given Qin Wanqing's relationship with Tong Yan, he certainly wouldn't ignore her if she encountered trouble.

"Okay, I'll take you there."

When she first heard Ye Bai's request, Tong Yan's pretty face flushed slightly.

After all, it's hard not to have some wild thoughts when a grown man goes to a single woman's dormitory.

Especially if the other party is your best friend's husband, misunderstandings are more likely to arise.

But when her gaze fell on Shen Lu, Tong Yan realized that she had been overthinking things.

It's not like she and Ye Bai were alone; there was a little follower who could act as a witness.

Very few of the staff at Jingzhou TV Station are from out of town, so almost no one stays in the dormitories.

Especially Tong Yan, a high-ranking executive at the TV station, is an exception among exceptions.

But given her rank, Tong Yan, as the deputy director, couldn't have the same dormitory as ordinary employees.

Although the area is not very large, it is only about 40 or 50 square meters, which is more than enough for one person to live in.

Moreover, although the sparrow is small, it has all the vital organs.

The dormitory was fully equipped with all kinds of living facilities and kept very clean, with a subtle fragrance that was unique to women.

"I must say, your dorm room is really nice."

Ye Bai couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "The TV station doesn't provide nannies, at most they only provide cleaning services."

Tong Yan's dormitory is so clean and tidy because she cleans it regularly in her spare time.

Being diligent is a big plus for both men and women.

No one dislikes cleanliness, unless they are sick.

"Um... just kidding, is there anything here that's inappropriate for me to see?"

Ye Bai looked at Tong Yan with some hesitation and asked.

"what?"

Tong Yan was taken aback at first, then her pretty face flushed red, and she said coquettishly, "What are you thinking! Nothing!!"

She wasn't a child like Shen Lu, so she naturally understood what this girl was asking.

"That's good." Ye Bai breathed a sigh of relief, ignoring Tong Yan's embarrassment and annoyance, and finally felt at ease.

There's nothing we can do; Tong Yan suffers from a strange illness that flares up from time to time.

Since she doesn't have a boyfriend yet, she naturally has to find other ways to solve the problem.

If I don't put it away properly and he sees it, that would be truly embarrassing.

Because of this typical straight-male mentality, Ye Bai was completely unaware that his current actions were making Tong Yan's embarrassment no better.

Fortunately, they've known each other for a while now, and Tong Yan has gradually come to accept Ye Bai's outspokenness.

She knew this guy wasn't trying to flirt with her; he was just plain crazy.

The dormitory wasn't big, and Ye Bai quickly and carefully looked through it all.

Just like in the office, nothing unusual was found.

Just as Tong Yan was about to ask Ye Bai if he had guessed wrong and that her nightmare was just a coincidence and not caused by anything else, she discovered that Ye Bai had made a move that left her speechless.

This guy actually took off his shoes and lay down directly on her bed...
