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

Chapter 153 New Commission

After practicing for a month, Gu Qingyin's anti-air restriction finally reached the level of instant release.

Now, all the New Year decorations in the house have been removed, and the old villa has returned to its previous low-key and luxurious feeling.

Huo Xingchen went back to training to prepare for the upcoming competition.

Huo Xinghai’s new song has been released and he is currently promoting it.

Huo Xingye was even busier, flying all over the world.

Gu Qingyin had been bored at home for a long time and finally couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to take on a commission, not only to make money, but mainly to find something to do.

On that day, Gu Qingyin made an appointment with Liu Ergou.

Liu Ergou is Gu Qingyin’s biggest connection in the world of celestial masters.

After meeting, the two chatted for a while and then got straight to the point.

Liu Ergou smiled and said, "What a coincidence! I just received a commission yesterday, and today the mountain sent a message asking me to go back. I was just worried that no one would take over."

Gu Qingyin also laughed, "Tell me about it."

"The client is Zhou Qi, who was the wife of the president of Haitang Xiangyun two days ago. Now, the president of Haitang Xiangyun has passed away, and Zhou Qi has inherited her husband's shares and has become the largest shareholder of the company."

"She suspected her husband's death was unusual, and after many twists and turns she found me. I met her yesterday, and she had a strong ghostly aura and resentment about her. She was obviously marked by a vengeful ghost."

"However, Zhou Qi is a very low-key and pragmatic person, and rarely gets into arguments with others. After thinking about it, the only person who is hostile to her and can't stand her doing well is her ex-husband Lin Hongtao."

"Half a month ago, Lin Hongtao's company went bankrupt and he committed suicide by jumping off a building. He may have turned into a demon."

Gu Qingyin also agreed that Lin Hongtao was indeed the most likely candidate.

"Give me Zhou Qi's contact information. I'll take the order."

Liu Ergou sent the call and then said, "Zhou Qi is from Hangzhou. If you want to solve the problem, you have to go to Hangzhou."

Gu Qingyin smiled indifferently, "It's just next to it, not far away. When are you leaving?"

Liu Ergou glanced at the time and said, "The flight is at 3pm. We have to leave now."

"So hurried?" Gu Qingyin raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Something happened in Wudang Mountain?"

Liu Ergou's face fell, "The once-in-three-years competition between Wudang Mountain and Longhua Temple is about to begin. Master asked me to go back and train my disciples."

Gu Qingyin's eyes showed sympathy. This was the bad thing about our great cause: the lack of freedom.

After chatting for a while, Liu Ergou left in a hurry.

After drinking her coffee, Gu Qingyin called Zhou Qi and made an appointment to meet.

She didn't go home either, but asked the driver to drive over and take her to Hangzhou.

On the way, she checked the talismans in her bag. There were all kinds of talismans in considerable quantity. She had been practicing at home for a month, so the talismans she had consumed before were naturally replenished.

Four hours later, Gu Qingyin arrived at the agreed club and met Zhou Qi.

Zhou Qi has shoulder-length hair and a heroic look between her eyebrows. She is not a beauty in the traditional sense, but she is the type that is more attractive the more you look at her.

"Master Gu?" Zhou Qi looked at Gu Qingyin and spoke hesitantly. If it wasn't for an acquaintance introducing her, she would have suspected that she was being fooled.

She was a fan of Huo Xinghai! Naturally, she had also watched the variety show "Happy Family". Her idol's mother was actually a celestial master? And she just happened to be exorcising ghosts for her. How small was the probability that she would encounter such a mysterious thing? Gu Qingyin smiled, "Zhou Qi, right? Please sit down."

"Oh my God, this is incredible." Zhou Qi was still sighing after sitting down.

Gu Qingyin raised an eyebrow, "Is it more incredible than your encounter with a ghost?"

Hearing this, Zhou Qi immediately smiled bitterly, "That might be a little off. Before this incident, I have always been a staunch materialist."

"Tell me about your feud with your ex-husband."

Zhou Qi was silent.

Gu Qingyin guessed that she was probably recalling something, or organizing her words and choosing a good beginning.

After a while, Zhou Qi took a deep breath and spoke, "I moved next door to his house when I was fifteen, and we have known each other since then. We started dating in our freshman year, and got married after graduating from college. Three years after marriage, I found out that he cheated on me, and then we divorced."

"He occupied more than half of my first half of life." Zhou Qi said seriously, "Although our ending was not good, it is undeniable that I once loved him deeply."

She lowered her eyes and smiled, "But when I decided to be with my husband, I had completely let him go."

"The time before we separated was very unpleasant." Zhou Qi still feels uncomfortable when he thinks about it now. It's not sadness, but disgust.

"I noticed something was wrong with him half a year before the divorce. I saw him less and less. He was often on business trips, and when he came back, he would most likely be called away by a phone call."

"He missed my birthday, our wedding anniversary, and his six-monthly trip."

Zhou Qi smiled and said, "I thought he was really busy until I saw him in his secretary's circle of friends."

"He didn't have time to travel with me, but he went to Paris with his secretary. You can tell from the photos how much fun they had, just like every couple in love."

Zhou Qi became more and more excited as she spoke. She closed her eyes, not wanting to lose her composure over the past. After a few seconds of pause, she spoke again, "I talked to him after they came back."

Zhou Qi laughed sarcastically, "The moment I exposed him, he felt no guilt or regret, but... a sense of relief."

This direction was really unexpected. Gu Qingyin raised her eyebrows and focused more.

"He said... he just wanted something new. We've been together for too long, and our life has become as dull as a pool of stagnant water. He needs some excitement. He also promised that he would not divorce me, and that no one could shake my position as Mrs. Lin."

“Ha.” Zhou Qi’s eyes were filled with disgust. “That day I realized that my beloved boy had turned into an arrogant, shameless, smelly and disgusting man without knowing when!”

"I got really angry, the first time I've ever gotten angry, and I was determined to divorce him. Maybe he was scared by my attitude, he started begging for forgiveness, knelt down in tears and apologized to me, promising that it was the last time."

"Maybe I couldn't bear to give up the love I had invested so much in for so many years. I hesitated for a long time and chose to forgive." Zhou Qi laughed at himself, "But a man's cheating is like taking drugs. There's only one time and countless times."

"On his birthday, I overheard a conversation between him and his friends, and then I realized that he had not broken up with that secretary at all! He fired the secretary and kept her outside!"

"I was so disgusted! I went home, signed the divorce agreement and moved out. I was afraid that he would pester me, so I went abroad, and then... I met my current husband."

"Lin Hongtao harassed me many times afterwards, and it was my husband who helped me resolve it."

Zhou Qi's eyes were filled with sadness. "I didn't expect this to happen. We've only been married for less than a year."

Gu Qingyin was furious when she heard this, "How dare Lin Hongtao take revenge on you!"
