The Golden-Eyed Life of a Security Guard

The stunningly beautiful woman plopped down opposite Gu Yuebai, snatched the wine bottle from his hand, took a swig, and mumbled:

"Hey buddy... judging from your expression, you got dumped too?"

Gu Yuebai narrowed his eyes, subconsciously activating his X-ray vision ability. In an instant, he saw an extremely fine phoenix tattoo on the inside of the woman's wrist, and a crescent-shaped jade pendant in her handbag—the material of which was exactly the same as his dragon-shaped jade fragment, with a blurry character "Xiao" engraved on it.

"You've also broken up with your boyfriend?" Gu Yuebai asked, his voice slurred with drunkenness.

"Worse than a breakup." The woman gave a bitter smile, downing another bottle of beer. A barely perceptible sharpness flashed in her eyes. "My dad forced me to marry someone I didn't like, a good-for-nothing who just sponges off his parents." She paused, looking at the broken jade in Gu Yuebai's hand, her pupils shrinking slightly. "This jade pendant of yours... is it the Gu family's dragon pendant?"

A hint of surprise flashed in the woman's eyes.

Before he could ask any further questions, the woman grabbed his wrist and stood up: "Come on, let's go somewhere else to drink, we won't leave until we're drunk!" She was very strong, and Gu Yuebai was dragged by her, dizzy, back to his rented room.

Once on the bed, the woman went berserk and began tearing at Gu Yuebai's clothes.

Gu Yuebai has been single for twenty-six years, and is long since a pile of dry tinder, ready to ignite at the slightest spark.

The two were writhing in the bed amidst a thunderstorm.

The next morning, the slightly warm sunlight shone through the window.

Gu Yuebai groggily opened her eyes.

There was no one beside her; only a stack of brand-new banknotes and a note remained.

He picked up the note; the handwriting was sharp and unrestrained, completely different from the drunken woman from the previous night: "I was drunk last night, so let's not disturb each other. Consider this money a loan. If you encounter anyone with the surname 'Xiao' in the future, you can recognize me by showing this broken jade."

Gu Yuebai held the ten thousand yuan and the note, wondering, "A person surnamed Xiao? A sham reunion?"

He clutched the note, then pulled out the broken jade pendant from his pocket, his mind filled with doubt. Who exactly was this woman? How could she recognize the Gu family's jade pendant?

However, the hole in the sheet was so glaringly obvious.

"Hmph, trying to hide from me? Not so easy."

Just then, the phone rang. It was the security captain, his tone extremely arrogant: "Gu Yuebai, not only did you skip work last night, but you also offended General Manager Hu! Pack your things and get out of here, or I'll make sure you can't find a job in Yuncheng!"

"You scoundrel who relies on his master's power, just you wait."

Gu Yuebai hung up the phone immediately, and was about to go find Hu Zhiwei to settle the score when suddenly the phone rang again.

"Moonlight! Your father..."

The caller was Gu Yuebai's mother, Shen Ling. On the phone, Shen Ling sobbed, "We...we still owe Guo Xiaochang over 300,000 yuan...Mom, I didn't want to say this..."

A debt of over 300,000 yuan? Where did it come from?

Guo Xiaochang is in the jadeite rough business, and he and his father were business partners and comrades-in-arms in the past.

Since his father's car accident, the Gu family has stopped doing business in raw jadeite.

His family's financial situation also plummeted.

"What? You owe Guo Xiaochang over 300,000 yuan? How did that come about?"

"Ten years ago, when you were in high school, your dad went to the Myanmar border to buy a batch of goods. He was short 2.1 million yuan, so he borrowed that money from Guo Xiaochang..."

According to Shen Ling, her father, Gu Wenhui, went to the Myanmar border to smuggle raw jade. He took a fancy to a good piece of jade, but it was 2.1 million short. On a whim, he bought the piece.

Unfortunately, I didn't have enough money, so I borrowed 2.1 million from Guo Xiaochang.

However, life is unpredictable, and Gu Wenhui was killed in a car accident on his way back.

Caught off guard by the sudden turn of events, Shen Ling was completely disoriented. Guo Xiaochang, coveting Gu Wenhui's rough jade, demanded that Shen Ling give him all of Gu Wenhui's stockpiled jade to settle the debt.

Shen Ling couldn't bear to part with the piece of raw jade that Gu Wenhui had risked his life for, so she only agreed to use other raw jade pieces as collateral.

But when you calculate it, you still owe Guo Xiaochang 500,000.

Helpless, Shen Ling agreed to slowly repay Guo Xiaochang with her earnings in the future.

Guo Xiaochang and Gu Wenhui were brothers, and he dared not push them too hard, for fear of gossip from their peers.

At the time, Gu Yuebai was in high school and her studies were her priority. Shen Ling didn't tell Gu Yuebai about this. Over the years, Shen Ling worked odd jobs and paid off the debt little by little each year.

Two days ago, Shen Ling suddenly broke her leg and was unable to go to work.

Guo Xiaochang is here again to collect the debt.

In short, all he wanted was the piece of raw jade that Gu Wenhui had bought back then.

"So that's why there's a big box under my bed; is that the piece of raw fabric inside?"

"Yes," Shen Ling said tearfully, "I know you're dating Siyi, and I didn't want to tell you. But... Mom really can't do anything about it."

Little did she know that Li Siyi, that despicable woman, had already run off with someone else.

"I'll be right back."

After hanging up the phone, Gu Yuebai immediately put on her clothes and went out.

He suddenly remembered that Hu Zhiwei's wife ran a traditional Chinese medicine clinic in Jinqiao District, and he was going to go and tell her about Hu Zhiwei's affair with his girlfriend.

Let her make a scene with Hu Zhiwei, or better yet, get a divorce, so that Hu Zhiwei can experience what it's like to be a slave to his wrath.

Gu Yuebai hailed a taxi and found Song's Medical Clinic on Jinhui Street in Jinqiao District.

He strode into the local medical clinic, where a middle-aged woman and a little girl were waiting at the entrance.

When he looked at the two women, suddenly, a golden light flashed in his eyes, and Gu Yuebai could see the physical condition of the two women clearly.

That middle-aged woman suffered from chronic rheumatism, and her kneecaps must have been tormented for years.

And on the little girl's chest, there was a patch of black mist.

Gu Yuebai blurted out almost immediately: "Yin Shi Sha".

He himself didn't understand what Yin Shi Sha was, but he recognized the little girl's illness at a glance.

In layman's terms, "Yin Shi Sha" refers to a condition caused by being attacked by the Yin energy of a corpse over many years, resulting in a kind of illness.

A person with insufficient Yang energy often develops many illnesses.

"Little sister, where do you live?"

The little girl stared at Gu Yuebai without saying a word. The middle-aged woman who was holding her beside her was also somewhat wary.

"My husband and I work at Imperial View Mansion."

At this moment, two women came out of a separate room inside the house. One of them was wearing a white coat and her hair was simply tied up with a collar.

She was tall and curvaceous, with breasts that seemed to reach for the sky.

What's most captivating is her long legs beneath her sheer stockings.

Her face is very beautiful, with the unique charm of a mature woman.

"These next few days, you should avoid cold and raw foods, drink plenty of water, take a few doses of medicine, and you'll be fine."

The young woman who came out with the beautiful woman nodded, took the medicine, thanked her, and left.

"Gu Yuebai? How did you find this place?"

This doctor was none other than Song Lan, the owner of Song's Medical Clinic.

She is also Hu Zhiwei's wife.

"I originally wanted to talk to you about something, but the situation is urgent now. This little girl has been attacked by yin energy and has been afflicted with the Yin Corpse Demon. She won't live for more than a month."

The middle-aged woman was furious after Gu Yuebai said that.

"What's wrong with you? How can you curse my child the moment we meet?"

Gu Yuebai suddenly walked to the child's side and lifted her sleeve.

"Look, her arms are already rotting. At first, it was just her arms and limbs, but in a week at most, her chest and abdomen will show the same symptoms. Eventually, her whole body will ulcerate. By then, there will be no cure."

Song Lan was puzzled. She had never heard of any Yin Corpse Fiend, and she did not believe what Gu Yuebai said.

"Gu Yuebai, why aren't you working properly at Yunlu Mansion? What are you doing at my clinic? If you have nothing to do, get out of here. I still have patients to treat."
