The seemingly lazy wife is a master of metaphysics, specializing in dealing with those who dare to d

Liang Jingu struggled to his feet and began chanting incantations again.

He then took out his compass and other magical artifacts to search for the source.

They lit incense sticks and burned talismans.

A flurry of actions, as fierce as a tiger.

However, they couldn't locate Xiao Jiu no matter what they tried!

"How is this possible?!"

"That fiend was hit by my location-tracking spell, how could he have disappeared without a trace?"

"No, this isn't right..."

Liang Jingu hurriedly tried to find the cloth bag containing the beads.

But the bag was picked up by Jun Yao right after he was pinned to the ground and beaten by Xiao Jiu.

Jun Yao shook the bag in her hand and kindly asked, "Are you looking for this?"

"Yes, yes, yes! Please, Madam..."

Before Liang Jingu could finish speaking, Jun Yao was seen holding the string of beads with two fingers, looking disgusted.

"I thought it was nice when I saw it last time."

"I never expected to attract wild beasts!"

"This is so unlucky!"

Before he finished speaking, Junyao picked up a lighter from who-knows-where and lit the bracelet on fire.

"Madam! You mustn't! You mustn't!"

Liang Jingu shouted urgently.

But the small flame from the lighter had already started to burn.

In the blink of an eye, a plume of black smoke suddenly rose from the string of iridescent crystal beads!

The flames were like a gaping maw, about to burn Jun Yao's hand.

Junyao immediately threw the burning beaded string into the corner and, facing the astonished and nervous gazes of the others, pitifully pouted.

"I thought it wouldn't catch fire!"

"It actually caught fire!"

"That scared me to death!"

Liang Jingu was the most shocked.

He had touched the problematic string of beads himself!

No matter how much it has been artificially enhanced, it is still a type of stone, definitely not plastic!

How can a stone catch fire so easily?

This doesn't make sense!

Liang Jingu inspected the remaining beads in the corner of the wall.

The original is completely unrecognizable.

All that remained was a pile of grayish-white powder.

Jun Yao stood behind him, looking anxious.

"Master, I really meant well in helping you..."

"Master, have I done something wrong or caused trouble?"

"Master, you're very magnanimous; you wouldn't hold a grudge against a layman like me, would you?"

"master?"

Liang Jingu's smile was more like a grimace.

"It's nothing, it's nothing! Madam has actually done a good deed..."

He sighed, both to comfort Jun Yao and to comfort himself.

"This evil demon forms a pact with humans, and the string of beads is like its snail shell."

"Without its shell, it can't cause any big waves outside."

Jun Yao touched his chest and smiled slightly.

"That's wonderful! ...Thank you for your hard work, Master! You're truly amazing!"

After saying that, he went to find Ye Yang.

"Assistant Ye, what are you standing there for? Master was beaten to a pulp trying to help us catch this bewitching monster! Aren't you going to find a doctor to treat his injuries?"

Ye Yang came to his senses and hurriedly called for the doctor.

While the doctor was treating Liang Jingu's external injuries, Junyao kept a close eye on his condition and praised him for his low-key and simple style, saying he was a rare pragmatist!

Liang Jingu was so flattered that he was completely bewildered and dizzy.

For a moment, I only felt:

It really wasn't easy for me!

He recalled how he had painstakingly tried to bring glory to the Master's school over the years, working tirelessly from dawn till dusk for this purpose.

They get up earlier than the chickens and go to bed later than the pigs!

He also recalled that other colleagues could live a life of luxury just by showing off and bragging, while he had always adhered to the rules and regulations and never swindled or cheated others.

Otherwise, he could go to the market, find some smugglers who secretly sell wild animals, buy a dead fox to show to Zhou Yichuan, and lie that it was the fox demon's true form and that he had eliminated this scourge.

Instead of sticking to the rules and following procedures rigidly, insisting on giving the big spender an explanation.

How could he possibly make a mistake if he didn't slay the demon in person?

How could she possibly be beaten and humiliated in front of Zhou Yichuan?

Thinking about all this, Liang Jingu was overcome with grief and almost cried from feeling wronged.

Fortunately, after glancing at Jun Yao, he felt that there was still warmth in the world!

Mrs. Zhou understands him very well!

Right.

Mrs. Zhou is clearly putting in all her effort in her career, but it's always gone unnoticed...

They were in the same boat!

Liang Jingu suppressed his grievances and sincerely suggested to Jun Yao:

"Madam, although the demon's dwelling place has been destroyed and it has nowhere to go, it will soon perish on its own... but it did escape from here after all, so this area around the hospital is not safe."

"Moreover, these evil creatures are narrow-minded and extremely vengeful! If they find out that you, Madam, destroyed their lair, they will likely seek revenge again!"

Jun Yao covered her mouth in surprise. "Where should I go to lay low for a while?"

"Let's go home," Zhou Yichuan suggested. "The house is heavily fortified; no evil spirits can get close."

Liang Jingu readily agreed with the suggestion, excitedly shouting, "Yes! Your mansion even has a formation personally set up by my master! Staying here is foolproof!"

Junyao pinched her chin with her hand, clearly hesitant.

She was just echoing Liang Jingu's words; she didn't actually want to find a place to lay low.

If Zhou Yichuan's residence was indeed so heavily fortified, it would be of no benefit to the original owner's soul or Xiao Jiu.

But how can I refuse?

While Junyao was still considering, she suddenly made eye contact with Zhou Yichuan.

His beautiful eyes, like a glittering galaxy, gave Jun Yao an idea instantly.

"There's no way I'm going to go back to live there!"

Jun Yao's resolute tone was tinged with a hint of grievance.

"That house is your house, the house where you and other women spent your pleasures!"

"I have obsessive-compulsive disorder about cleanliness!"

"I'd rather live outside and be killed by a fox demon than go back to the waterfront mansion with you!"

With the original owner's acting skills enhanced, Jun Yao was already in tears when she got to this point.

No one else in the ward dared to make a sound.

Especially Liang Jingu.

He touched his swollen cheek, only thinking about getting away as soon as possible.

After all, it's best to stay as far away from these kinds of feuds among wealthy families as possible!

After treating Liang Jingu's injuries, the doctor, as requested by Zhou Yichuan, performed a full physical examination on Jun Yao.

"Madam currently has several health data points that do not meet the standards."

"However, if you really want to take her home to recuperate, my suggestion is to arrange for two professional doctors to accompany your wife 24 hours a day."

"So that we can respond promptly in case of any emergencies."

Zhou Yichuan nodded. "Okay, let's do it that way."

This hospital originally belonged to the Zhou family; they could easily allocate manpower as needed.

This was not difficult for Ye Yang.

The problem is, the wife refuses to live at the CEO's home...

Otherwise, he could step forward and explain to the wife on behalf of the president that nothing actually happened when the president brought those women back, as the wife had imagined.

It's all a misunderstanding...

But Ye Yang has been a little unsure of Zhou Yichuan's thoughts these past two days.

Therefore, he dared not make decisions on his own.

After waiting for a while, Ye Yang finally received Zhou Yichuan's new work order.

"Select a few clean houses and let her choose."

"You can stay in whichever apartment you like."

"After the selection is made, we will arrange for the rest of Liang Jingu's team to place the talismans and set up the formation."

Ye Yang was surprised again.

How many times recently has the president gone along with his wife's wishes?

There has never been such a precedent before.

When did the lady begin to win the president's heart?
