The metaphysical mother returns, and the villain son stands at attention

Chapter 12 I’m back again

After asking the questions, Gu Qingyin saved the souls of several ghosts as a reward.

After pushing the door open, Gu Qingyin saw her aunt carrying a meal tray into the room at the end of the corridor. She raised her eyebrows in confusion. Is there someone else living in that room? Is it inconvenient for her to come out? She still needs to deliver food.

Gu Qingyin went downstairs with doubts.

Huo Xingye took off his suit and wore only a white shirt with his sleeves rolled up to his forearms. He looked a lot more relaxed than when he was in the company. He was holding a tablet in his hand, probably working on something again.

"Who lives upstairs?" Gu Qingyin walked over and asked casually.

Huo Xingye's eyes flickered slightly, and he said in a normal tone: "A friend, he has been ill these days and can't see the wind, I will introduce him to you later."

No wonder the door was closed so tightly. Gu Qingyin didn't ask any more questions and said with a smile, "Can we have dinner now?"

Huo Xingye stood up and led her to the restaurant. "I'm going to have a light meal tonight, please don't be disgusted."

At one end of the rectangular dining table were four dishes and a soup. There was no meat at all, only vegetarian dishes, and it was indeed very light.

Huo Xingye and Gu Qingyin sat opposite each other and ate in silence.

After a while, the aunt came down with a tray of food.

Gu Qingyin took a look and saw that there was porridge and side dishes on it, which seemed to have been untouched. She said casually: "Your friend doesn't have a good appetite. Has he been to the hospital?"

Huo Xingye also glanced at the plate, his face expressionless, he lowered his eyes and said calmly: "I've checked it, it's not a serious illness, it will be fine in a few days." He looked at the aunt, "Take it away, you can go now."

Auntie smiled reservedly, went back to the kitchen, cleaned up, and left.

After the mother and son finished their meal, they cleared the table and put the dishes and plates in the dishwasher and left them alone.

"I'll go back first. See you tomorrow." Gu Qingyin stood at the door and waved to Huo Xingye with a smile.

Huo Xingye breathed a sigh of relief, then asked in surprise, "Are you coming tomorrow?"

Gu Qingyin's smile remained unchanged, and she said without question: "Once you develop the good habit of eating on time, I won't go there again."

"I didn't mean to stop you from coming." Huo Xingye pursed his lips and explained, "You can come anytime you want. I welcome you anytime."

"Oh, I know, no need to explain." Gu Qingyin patted his shoulder, "Go to bed early tonight, I'm leaving, no need to see me off."

Huo Xingye stopped at the door and watched her enter the elevator. "Tell me when you get home."

"Who is she? Your new target? So when can you let me go?"

A female voice mixed with ice chips sounded from behind, with an obvious sense of weakness. It was a bit creepy at first, but Huo Xingye seemed to be used to it. He didn't even waver in his eyes and said in a calm voice: "When you figure it out, I will let you go."

Huo Xingye turned around and looked at the woman. She had almond eyes, curved eyebrows, a straight nose, plump red lips, and delicate facial features like a doll. No matter how many times you see her, you can't help but be amazed and moved.

"You are the one who can't figure it out, not me!" The woman took a deep breath, her eyes full of disgust, "I have said many times that I don't like you! Now that you have imprisoned me, it is even more impossible for me to like you! Pervert!"

Huo Xingye's expression remained unchanged. "Remember to eat well tomorrow and stop being willful. If you don't eat, you won't even have the energy to scold me."

The woman was angry and scared, "I really regret it! I shouldn't have saved you back then!" Who would have thought that her kind act in her youth would cause her to be targeted by a pervert for so many years.

"I'll help you go upstairs to rest." Huo Xingye stepped forward and grabbed her arm. The woman seemed to be electrocuted, shaking her arm vigorously, panting and shouting: "Let go! Don't touch me! I'm sick!"

Huo Xingye turned a deaf ear to her, but he didn't have the patience to coax her any more. He bent down, picked the man up, and strode upstairs.

The woman screamed and kept beating Huo Xingye's back with her hands, but she was weak to begin with, and the strength she exerted was not even as strong as a massage.

Huo Xingye threw the person onto the bed and left.

The woman's face was covered with tears. She kept insisting, "You've already fallen in love with someone else, why don't you let me go? Are you afraid that I'll call the police after I leave? I swear I won't tell anyone about this. Please... just let me go home."

Huo Xingye stopped at the door and said, "You misunderstood. I only like you. I still have work to do. Be obedient and go to bed early."

The door was closed and locked from the outside.

The woman wiped away her tears in the darkness, huddled silently into the quilt, and pondered expressionlessly.

Huo Xingye's attitude towards that woman today was unusual. Who was that woman? Was it possible that he could use her to help him escape?
On the other side, before she even got home, Gu Qingyin received a call from Liu Ergou.

"The Heavenly Master who went to Tianfu Jinyuan last month was called Lin Wu. He was a young Heavenly Master who suddenly appeared. No one knows who his teacher was. Moreover, this person has not appeared since he came back from Jinyuan. No one knows where he went."

Gu Qingyin narrowed her eyes slightly, "If nothing unexpected happens, Jinyuan's Yin Gathering Formation is his work." She pondered and said, "If the Yin Gathering Formation is destroyed, will Lin Wu show up?"

Liu Ergou: "It's hard to say, but we can try. The Yin Gathering Formation will be dismantled sooner or later."

That's a residential area. If people live in a place with strong yin energy for a long time, their physical condition will become worse and worse.

"Then tear it down, tonight." Gu Qingyin said the command in a negotiating tone, "You don't have anything to do tonight, right? See you at the gate of Jinyuan later."

Liu Ergou: "Okay."

It wasn't until the phone call was hung up that he came to his senses. He had clearly decided to let Gu Qingyin go, so why did he run over to help as soon as she called him? !

Liu Ergou, I look down on you!
After spitting on himself in his heart, Liu Ergou left the hotel, hailed a taxi on the street, and said firmly: "Master, let's go to Tianfu Jinyuan!"

He did this for the benefit of the people of the world, not to help Gu Qingyin!

Gu Qingyin's car also turned around and went back to Jinyuan. On the way, she remembered the last time Huo Xingye was angry, so she took the initiative to make a phone call.

Huo Xingye answered the call quickly, "What's wrong?" It would probably not be enough time to get to the old house.

"I'm back to Jinyuan again." Gu Qingyin said seriously, "Jinyuan has too much yin energy, and you live there. I'm really worried, so I contacted my old friend the Heavenly Master and plan to deal with it tonight."

"I'm just telling you, don't be angry." Gu Qingyin's voice was a little coaxing, "The sooner it's dealt with, the sooner I can feel at ease."

Huo Xingye could hear her concern and worry. He did not object. After two seconds of silence, he said, "I'll go with you."

Of course Gu Qingyin disagreed. Tonight's actions were all to lure the snake out of its hole. What if Huo Xingye encountered danger nearby?
But before she could figure out how to refuse, Huo Xingye said, "I'm wearing the protective jade pendant you gave me, so I shouldn't be in danger. After all, you're such a powerful Heavenly Master."

Gu Qingyin couldn't refute it, and gritted her teeth and said, "Okay! Don't come out by yourself, wait for me to pick you up!"

Huo Xingye smiled and replied obediently, "Okay."
