Don't talk nonsense, this is the Emperor's Banner

Chapter 33 Pulling
"Sorry, I was just taking a shower."

Shen Siyuan sent a WeChat message back to Jiang Tingyu.

But Jiang Tingyu did not reply immediately. It was unclear whether he did not see it or it was a deliberate tactic.

If a boyfriend or girlfriend has feelings for each other, and the other party fails to reply to their WeChat messages in time during the chat, it is very difficult and frustrating.

If one party falls in love, he or she will fall into the passive state of worrying about gains and losses and fall into the trap of the other party.

But since Shen Siyuan wanted to control the opponent, he naturally kept a calm mind and directly opened the game to fight against him.

About two or three minutes later, I finally received a reply from Jiang Tingyu.

However, Shen Siyuan did not switch out to reply, but finished the game and then leisurely switched out.

"Would you like to come to my aquarium to watch my show tomorrow?"

"Sorry, I was just playing games. I'm afraid I can't go back tomorrow. I went back to my hometown today, and I probably won't be back until tomorrow evening."

Shen Siyuan told the other party bluntly that she was playing games and did not reply to her message. He wanted to give the other party the feeling that you are not that important.

Saying that you have returned to your hometown is telling the other person a result, but it is also a test.

If Jiang Tingyu just expressed regret after hearing this and said that he could only watch her performance next time, it would mean that although the girl had a good impression of him, it was not much.

But if Jiang Tingyu heard this, he would be curious about where his hometown is and whether it is fun.

In this situation, Jiang Tingyu is either a sea queen who wants to keep Shen Siyuan hanging.

Or maybe she is really attracted to him, but doesn't want to be in a relationship now, yet doesn't want to miss Shen Siyuan. She is in a state of indecision, so she wants to "tie" Shen Siyuan down first, and then she will slowly consider whether they should be together.

"Oh, yeah. I heard you say that your hometown is in Qingshui Town when we were having dinner yesterday. Is it far from here? How long does it take to get there by car?"

Seeing this, Shen Siyuan's mouth curled up, this is fun...

So Shen Siyuan followed her words and started chatting with her.

And he said that he would invite her to come and play when he has time.

Just when the two were chatting enthusiastically, Shen Siyuan said directly: "A relative introduced me to a girl, and I came back for a blind date."

Jiang Tingyu was obviously silenced by her WeChat message. It took him a long time to reply.

"You just went on a blind date with me yesterday, and you're going to meet another girl tomorrow. Are you so anxious to find a girlfriend?"

This sentence was actually a bit inappropriate, but it also showed that Shen Siyuan's behavior made her feel uncomfortable.

And she used "ah" instead of "maybe" at the end, which made her tone more tactful. It was obvious that she didn't want to break up with Shen Siyuan just like that.

"There's nothing I can do. Since you don't like me, you naturally have to look for more. Besides, it's not me who's anxious, it's my parents." Shen Siyuan said.

Directly put pressure on the other party. If Jiang Tingyu really wants to keep Shen Siyuan, she has to think carefully about whether she can keep him, whether it is enough to just chat, and whether she needs to go further. She will have a sense of urgency in her heart and weigh the gains and losses...

Shen Siyuan is actually very good at understanding people's hearts. If Jiang Tingyu was not the Queen of the Sea, her behavior would not be considered a scumbag.

Most people who have been hurt in love will be extra cautious and keep testing when entering into another relationship. This is human nature, and Shen Siyuan is not surprised.

The two chatted for a while, and Shen Siyuan took the initiative to end the conversation.

This also shows that Shen Siyuan doesn't care about the relationship between them.

If Jiang Tingyu stopped here, the two of them would probably never have any contact again.

But if Jiang Tingyu takes the initiative to contact him again, she will get deeper and deeper into the trap, and eventually she will be reluctant to give up because she has invested too much emotion and the sunk cost is too high, which will make her pay a greater price.

Thinking about it this way, Shen Siyuan is quite a scumbag. However, Shen Siyuan actually has a good impression of Jiang Tingyu. After all, she is so beautiful, how could he not have any thoughts about her.

If Jiang Tingyu really wants to take their relationship seriously, Shen Siyuan will also get along well with him.

"Right here?"

Under the moonlight, the old Taoist priest and Yu Youcai stood outside Shen Siyuan's house, carefully looking at the building in front of them.

Yu Youcai nodded.

"Your nephew is quite rich." said the old Taoist priest.

"I have only made some money in the past few years. I lost a lot in the past few years, and I even lost money on my retirement savings."

"You two have a very good relationship."

The old Taoist priest looked back and realized that it was rare for someone to be willing to give his retirement money to his nephew.

"I have no children in my life, which means I have half a son. Jianjun is also a filial child. When I died, both father and son wore mourning clothes for me." Yu Youcai said with some pride.

The old Taoist nodded slightly and continued, "Go in, I'll wait for you outside."

Upon hearing this, Yu Youcai walked straight through the gate and went in.

As for the old Taoist priest, why didn't he go in? Was it because he didn't want to go in?

Of course not, because I can’t get in.

A house is equivalent to a private territory. If people live in it, the qi will be connected as one. Unless they are direct blood relatives during their lifetime, they can enter the house without the owner's consent. Otherwise, all ghosts will be kept outside the house.

This is also why Lu Guanchang just wandered outside Jiang Wenxin's door that day but did not enter the house, because he could not get in at all.

As for why Yin Xingyue was able to follow Doudou into Shen Siyuan's house, it was because the house did not belong to Shen Siyuan at all, but was rented by him.

This is why some people, when staying in a hotel, will first knock on the door three times, and then open the door sideways, to tell the "people" in the room that someone has moved into the room and ask them to make room.

These considerations actually make sense.

Yu Youcai entered the house, went upstairs with ease, and went straight into Shen Siyuan's room. It was obvious that this was not his first time here.

But when he entered the house, he was shocked because Shen Siyuan was sitting on the bed looking at him.

"Uncle." Shen Siyuan was a little surprised. Why did he come here in the middle of the night?

"You knew I was coming?" my uncle asked in surprise.

Shen Siyuan nodded. He not only noticed Yu Youcai coming in, but also knew that there was another ghost waiting outside the courtyard gate.

As the master of the Ten Thousand Souls Banner, even though the Ten Thousand Souls Banner has been mostly destroyed, he still has this ability.

This is also why he was able to immediately spot Yin Xingyue following Doudou that day.

"Your situation is a bit strange. I hope something went wrong. I've found an old Taoist priest to take a look at you. He knows a lot. Do you want to meet him?" said my uncle.

When Shen Siyuan heard that he was a Taoist priest, he became interested.

Since there are ghosts in this world, they, as Taoists and monks, have the most say and may be able to resolve some of Shen Siyuan's doubts.

So he stood up and said, "Then I'll go meet him."

But he sat down again soon and said, "Let him come in and talk. It's late at night and it won't be good to wake up my parents."

Seeing that Shen Siyuan agreed, Yu Youcai turned around and went downstairs to call the old Taoist priest in.
