Chapter 54 Footprints in the Room
It turns out that Xiaowen and her husband Ahua met through a close friend.
The reason the two were able to get married was not only because of the strong recommendation of their good friends.
She was mainly moved by Ahua's inspiring entrepreneurial story. He had achieved some success in the stock market in just three years, not only buying a villa in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but also starting his own investment company.
Before marriage, the two got along without any discomfort. Although Ahua wasn't particularly handsome, he was presentable. In life, he not only had high emotional intelligence but also a very good temper.
After the two got married, Xiaowen's friends were all envious of her.
However, after getting married, Xiaowen felt that her husband was acting strangely, and even made demands that she could not understand.
The villa was 450 square meters, with floor-to-ceiling windows everywhere. But after they got married, Ahua said he didn't like bright environments, so he told Xiaowen not to open the curtains unless necessary.
Xiaowen didn't take it seriously at the time, but then Ahua asked to have a child as soon as possible.
At the time, Xiaowen genuinely wanted to settle down with Ahua. It's common for young girls in big cities to smoke, something Xiaowen mentioned when they first started dating.
Xiaowen then suggested that they must wait six months after quitting smoking before trying to have a child.
Ahua agreed at the time.
Just three days ago, Ahua said that the company was expanding its business and he would have to go on a business trip for a week.
Xiaowen was home alone and wanted to tidy up the house properly. She went against her husband's wishes and opened all the curtains in the house. She also washed all the bed sheets, duvet covers, sofa covers and so on.
Xiaowen was busy until the afternoon. Since she was home alone, she didn't think to close the curtains. After doing so much work during the day, she lay on the sofa and drifted off to sleep.
However, she vaguely heard what sounded like a group of things playing and making noise in the living room, and even the footsteps of three or five children running back and forth.
Xiaowen woke up with a start and hurriedly checked each room, but found nothing.
Just when she thought she was having a nightmare, she suddenly realized that the curtains in her bedroom had been drawn again at some point.
At first, she thought she had accidentally pooped, so she checked the other rooms, and what she saw terrified Xiaowen.
Not only on the first floor, but even the curtains in the rooms on the second floor were drawn.
She remembered clearly that she fell asleep on the sofa after finishing her work during the day. It was impossible for her to have drawn the curtains herself, let alone for her friends to draw them when they visited.
Xiaowen became increasingly frightened, thinking that a thief had broken into her house.
However, the security in their villa community is very good. Without the doorman's password or the owner's absence, it's impossible to let a stranger in.
So Xiaowen began to pay attention to the unusual situation at home, and she consciously lay down on the living room sofa again and pretended to be asleep.
At first, it was quiet, and nothing happened.
Just as Xiaowen was drifting into a half-asleep state, the sounds of a group of things running and laughing appeared again.
Xiaowen didn't dare to make a sound and quickly turned on the TV to distract herself.
But her actions only fueled the mischievousness of the things in the house; the TV would automatically change channels, and the bathroom faucet would turn on and off intermittently.
Xiaowen was so frightened that she fainted and slept until 8:30 p.m. When she woke up, she felt dizzy and thought she must have had a nightmare.
After that, she just grabbed something to eat and then took a shower. When she came out, she came across Chen Xuan's live stream and, out of curiosity, went in to check it out.
Perhaps it was because Chen Xuan possessed righteous energy, but while watching the live stream, she suddenly recalled her past memories, and was so frightened that she trembled all over and hurriedly snatched Chen Xuan's lucky bag.
Unexpectedly, they actually managed to snatch that one lucky bag from among hundreds of thousands of people.
So without thinking, I immediately recharged and tipped the carnival live stream.
After connecting with the live stream, Xiaowen was a little embarrassed to talk about her family when she saw that there were hundreds of thousands of viewers in the room.
But she didn't expect that Master Chen Xuan's words would directly reveal the situation in her family.
She was terrified at the time, but immediately found Chen Xuan's words convincing.
She was afraid that the things in the house would hear what she was saying, so she buried herself in the covers before she dared to whisper about what had happened.
As the young woman Xiaowen finished recounting what had recently happened in her family.
Fans in the live stream chat also sent out barrages of teasing comments.
My favorite is a young married woman; [Sister, this is my phone number. Just say the word and I'll be there at the speed of light on a Dongfeng-41.]
Wang Xiaoer: [The main focus is on companionship. Sister, where are you from?]
Xiao Zhang, a secondhand homebuyer: [I suspect your house isn't clean. Are you selling it at 4.9% of its original price? If so, please contact me.]
Wang Dachui: [I think she's just scaring herself. The villa is so big, it's normal for someone to be scared at night. It could just be the sound of the wind.]
[Wait, how do you explain the curtains? No one's home, yet the curtains closed by themselves?]
It's quite possible you encountered a thief. I suggest calling the police.
[Pshaw, a thief? If I were that thief and saw a college beauty-level young woman sleeping on the sofa in a ribbon-embroidered nightgown, I'd just...you know...haha, just kidding. We're professionals, we only care about money!]
……
Chen Xuan didn't see the outrageous jokes in the live stream chat.
Instead, she looked at Xiaowen and asked, "Have you informed your husband about this?"
Xiaowen shook her head. "He's very busy and he's away on a business trip. I don't want to distract him from his work. I can't help him with his career, and I don't want to be a burden to him."
Once you say this.
The live stream chat was filled with comments praising Xiaowen for being a beautiful and kind woman, blessed with good fortune for her husband, and deserving of his success.
Upon hearing this, Chen Xuan looked at Xiaowen, thought for a moment, and then asked, "How much do you really know about your husband?"
“He is a very good person. He is not only ambitious, but also very caring. Apart from his appearance, he meets all my criteria for marriage.”
Chen Xuan nodded, then asked again, "Do you know every part of your entire villa like the back of your hand?"
When Xiaowen heard Chen Xuan ask this question, she was about to nod subconsciously, but suddenly stopped.
After thinking for a moment, she looked at Chen Xuan and said, "I know everything else, except for the storage room in the basement that I haven't been inside since we got married."
Xiaowen, worried that Chen Xuan might be overthinking things, explained, "My husband said that the storage room contains data on his company's clients and business contracts. Because he's worried about the client data being leaked, he hasn't let me go in."
"I don't understand or have any interest in investing in the stock market, so I've never bothered to look into what's in there."
As Xiaowen reminisced, she suddenly seemed to realize something and looked at Chen Xuan nervously, "Master, are you saying that all the strange things in the house are because of that room?"
Chen Xuan didn't give a direct answer, but instead said, "If you investigate this matter thoroughly, your marriage might not be able to continue."
"As the saying goes, it's better to tear down a temple than to break up a marriage."
After Chen Xuan finished speaking, he said, "The reason I am telling you this is because this matter will cause you great harm in the future."
After Chen Xuan finished speaking, Xiaowen recalled the various unusual things that had happened at home.
She believes that if she lives in such an environment for a long time, not to mention whether her future life will be better, she might even go crazy.
"Master, I want to know the truth. I will bear the consequences alone."
Chen Xuan nodded upon hearing this, "Alright, then go to the storage room in the basement now and see what's going on."
Approaching nine o'clock, in such a large villa, it was indeed a huge psychological and physiological challenge for a woman to go to the storage room alone after learning that something was wrong at home.
Seeing this, Chen Xuan said, "Remember, when you go down, don't step on the footprints on the ground, otherwise you will be discovered when you open the storage room door."
Xiaowen became even more frightened after Chen Xuan said that.
She hurriedly asked Chen Xuan what footprints there were, but when she looked around the floor, there were no footprints at all.
"Close your eyes first. I will briefly activate your Yin-Yang Eyes remotely. After that, you will be able to see the footprints on the ground."
Upon hearing this, even though Xiaowen was terrified, she became even more determined to find out what was in the house.
Otherwise, how will we get through the rest of the year?
"Alright, Taoist priest, I'll cooperate with you."
Immediately, in front of nearly 55 fans in the live stream, Chen Xuan made a hand seal and then chanted a spell, "Heaven and earth reverse, yin and yang open their eyes, heed my command, go!"
Chen Xuan pointed at Xiaowen, whose eyes were already closed, on the phone screen.
Then, a red and white light seemed to flash across Xiaowen's brow, but it disappeared in an instant.
"Alright, now slowly open your eyes and avoid the footprints on the ground."
"Ah."
Xiaowen responded and slowly opened her tightly closed eyes.
The moment Xiaowen opened her eyes, hundreds of thousands of fans in the live stream saw that Xiaowen's original black pupils had turned white, as if one of her pupils had rolled over, which was very eerie.
"Oh no, I mopped the floor clean during the day, so why are there footprints all over it now?"
Xiaowen, who had already activated her Yin-Yang Eyes, looked down and saw crisscrossing black footprints on the floor of the room.
What made her feel breathless was that the footprints varied in size and were not left by adults, but by children.
Visible when eyes are open
"Don't be afraid. If you want to give up now, I can refund your divination fee. It's also acceptable if the divination is unsuccessful."
Chen Xuan seemed to have noticed Xiaowen's hesitation and spoke directly.
"No, I have to find out what's going on with this thing in the house, or I can't live like this!"
Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, Xiaowen immediately reaffirmed her resolve.
She hadn't seen it before, but now that she'd opened her eyes to this terrifying scene in the house, she knew that if she didn't deal with it, she'd have no choice but to move or get a divorce.
"Master, I'll go down to the storage room now. If I encounter any danger along the way, you'll protect me, right?"
As soon as Xiaowen said this, the fans in the live stream started asking what had happened and why they couldn't see it.
"Having accepted your divination fee, I will naturally protect you. Go now."
