Chapter 138: Too Many Bad Things
After asking the housekeeper to arrange a guest room for Gu Qingyin, Huo Xingjie returned to the bedroom and hid in the bathroom to call Mrs. Huo.

"Grandma, Gu Qingyin is here!" Huo Xingjie asked in a panic, "Will Huo Yunjing come with her?"

Mrs. Huo frowned and sat up from the bed. "What did she say?"

Huo Xingjie's mind went blank. He thought for several seconds before speaking again, "She said she wanted Guoguo to spend the New Year with her, and then she said she wanted to stay here for one night."

"She's going for Bai Daxian." Old Madam Huo became nervous. "Where's Xiao Qin? Let Xiao Qin go and inform Bai Daxian! Let Bai Daxian be prepared!"

Huo Xingjie responded repeatedly, "I'll tell her now, right now..."

Madam Huo comforted them, "Don't worry, Bai Daxian is the guardian deity, he will protect you."

"Grandma." Huo Xingjie asked anxiously, "What did the doctor say about my uncle's illness?"

Madam Huo was silent for two seconds, "Yun Zheng will be fine."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Xingjie scratched his hair helplessly. What would ever be okay? Losing his five senses would be worse than death!
He doesn't want to become like this!
Huo Xingjie took out his cell phone and called Guoguo's mother, Xiao Qin as Mrs. Huo called her.

He heard the phone being turned off from the receiver, and he immediately threw away the phone with red eyes.

Huo Xingjie stared at himself in the mirror, not knowing what he was thinking about. His eyes were bloodshot and gradually became more ferocious.

He turned and walked out the door, heading straight for the attic.

After entering the attic, Huo Xingjie carefully closed the door, walked to the tablet, took out incense from the cabinet below, and lit it with a candle.

Huo Xingjie raised three incense sticks above his head, knelt on the ground and kowtowed devoutly, muttering to himself, "Master Bai, please help me. I am willing to pay any price."

Bai Daxian, who was hiding in the corner, rolled his eyes and couldn't help but be moved.

Huo Xingjie continued, "Bai Daxian, please help me drive out all the outsiders and dirty things in my house!"

Bai Daxian’s eyes couldn’t move anymore. What the hell, if he could have done it long ago, why would he still need to beg for it?
Bai Daxian turned to the corner in annoyance, curled himself up into a ball and became autistic.

After worshipping, Huo Xingjie stood up, inserted three incense sticks into the incense burner, and took a step back to carefully observe the direction of the smoke.

Xiao Qin said that if the smoke drifted towards the tablet, it meant that the guardian spirit agreed, but if the smoke drifted randomly it meant that it disagreed. Now...

Before Huo Xingjie could finish his recollection, he was stunned after hearing a soft "pop" sound.

What does it mean when the incense is broken?
Huo Xingjie was stunned for a few seconds, then tried again with uncertainty, but the incense still broke.

His expression was extremely grim. What on earth did Bai Daxian mean?
"Great Immortal, there is an evil ghost in my house, please help me." Huo Xingjie prayed with the last bit of hope, "Can't you keep my house safe? If you can help me this time, I can give you Guoguo's eyes!"

Bai Daxian was extremely excited. Last time he wanted it, they didn't give it to him, so he had to settle for the throat. This time they were generous, but he couldn't afford it anymore!
With a "snap" sound, the incense that was already broken in half broke into another piece.

Huo Xingjie finally realized how scared he was, took two steps back and ran out.

He went downstairs in a daze and just happened to meet Guoguo who was coming out of the study room after building Lego.

When Guoguo saw him, she was stunned for a moment, then instinctively moved back, obviously sensing that he was in a bad mood and wanted to stay away from him.

Huo Xingjie's eyes darkened when he saw this. "Why are you hiding? Come here!"

Guoguo pursed her lips and stood there holding Maomao without moving.

Mao Mao bared his teeth fiercely at Huo Xingjie. Huo Xingjie frowned and asked unhappily, "Where did the monkey come from?"

Guoguo looked down at Maomao and exclaimed, "Ah."

Huo Xingjie waved his hands in annoyance, "Throw it out now! What do you think your home is?"

Guoguo shook his head anxiously, wanting to explain, but he was speechless and could only utter a monotonous "ah ah" sound.

"Shut up! I'm so annoyed!" Huo Xingjie yelled, "Don't you have a cell phone? Can't you speak or type?"

Guoguo quickly took out her cell phone from her bag, typed a line of words, and then raised it up for him to see.

But Huo Xingjie did not lower his head. Instead, he stared at the back of Guoguo with horror. His legs were shaking as if he had Parkinson's disease, and his whole body was frozen in place, motionless.

Guoguo looked back in confusion, but there was nothing. She turned back again, holding up her phone and exclaimed "Ah".

Huo Xingjie still didn't respond.

Guoguo hesitated for two seconds, took a step forward, and touched his hand with her cell phone, wanting him to take it and look at it himself.

She swore that she had only touched him lightly, but Huo Xingjie let out an "Ah!", turned around and ran, crawling and disappearing at the end of the corridor, looking terrified as if a ghost was chasing him.

Guoguo was frightened by him and dropped her phone on the ground. When she picked it up, she found that Gu Qingyin had appeared beside her without her knowing.

Guoguo's eyes lit up, he ran over, took out his phone and typed for her to see.

Guoguo: I don’t know what happened to my dad, he suddenly ran away in fear.

Gu Qingyin smiled slightly, patted her head, and said softly: "People, if they do too many bad things, they will be easily startled. Don't worry about him."

Guoguo tilted his head in confusion, what does it mean to do too many bad things?

But before he could ask any more questions, Gu Qingyin smiled and changed the subject, "It's snack time, let's go down and see what the chef has prepared, okay?"

Hearing that there was something delicious to eat, Guoguo immediately forgot about her cheap dad and happily followed Gu Qingyin downstairs.

As for Huo Xingjie, he fled to the attic where he thought he was safe. After locking the door, he curled up in a corner, holding his head and shaking.

It’s definitely not an illusion!

He saw a tall man behind Guoguo. The man had a pale complexion and a gloomy temperament. He had changed a lot from when he was alive, but that face... he would definitely not remember it wrong!

That was Huo Yunjing who passed away ten years ago!
Huo Yunjing is really here! What should I do? Is he going to die?
Huo Xingjie felt extremely regretful now. He had just dropped his phone and now he couldn't even call for help. If he could get through this hurdle today, he swore that he would never drop his phone when he was angry again.

During lunch, the housekeeper didn't see Huo Xingjie. He looked upstairs in confusion, but after hesitating for two seconds, he didn't go up to disturb him.

The young master often plays all night and sleeps all day when he comes back. He especially hates being disturbed. But today there are guests here, why is the young master still so willful?

The butler sighed and could only try his best to entertain Gu Qingyin to make up for the young master's rudeness.

When all the dishes were served, the butler asked with a smile, "Are you satisfied with today's dishes?"

Gu Qingyin smiled with an ambiguous tone, "Very satisfied."

 I'm not feeling well. Just one chapter today.
