Chapter 344 Evil ThingsLang Ruoxian comes back to Yanjing and then knows that Huo Liyun has been to Mi Country about the same time as them.
âDid you say that she stayed in Tai Island for a day?â
Shu Sheng nods, âYes, just one day.â
Itâs strangeâ¦
Tai Island is the first choice for people to spend their holidays by the sea. No one goes just for one day.
âMaybe something happened to her family.â Shu Sheng thinks for a moment, âBut we donât get any news.â
Lang Ruoxian says, âCan you find out where Huo Liyun went on that day in Tai Island? And where did she go when she was in Mi Country? Who did she meet? Check it out.â
When Huo Liyun comes back, she puts the black jar in her bedroom. Tang Ming and she have not slept in the same room for a long time. Zhao Mei and Yang Yanqing dare not to say too much. So the whole family doesnât find that Huo Liyun mutter to the jar every night.
There are candles around with a strange bronze statue in the middle. The body looks like a Bodhisattva, but its five sense organs are ferocious like a devil.
âLele can finally sit!â Bai Susu smiles and plays with the twins. Lele can suddenly sit this morning. Although she canât sit still, she doesnât go down at all.
As for Anâan, he has been sitting very steadily these days. Now he shakes hard with a bell in his hand.
âThere is little snow this year. It hasnât fallen much so far.â Chang Peiâe is concerned about the weather. If it doesnât snow and the air gets drier, people will get sick easily.
Bai Susu reaches out and takes the toy from Leleâs mouth. She doesnât let Lele put it in her mouth, âI will ask the housemaid to boil more lily pear water these days to moisten our lungs and stop coughing.â
âWhere are you going?â Bai Susu looks up and sees Tang Duo coming downstairs dressed beautifully.
Tang Duo approaches and kisses the twins. Lele is very excited to see her mother. She reaches out to hug Tang Duo.
âLele, Mom canât hold you with jewelry!â Tang Duo is afraid to stab the child. She shakes Leleâs hand, âIâll go and celebrate Fang Diandianâs birthday. She invited her classmates to a party yesterday. Iâll treat her to dinner alone today.â
Tang Duo doesnât say that Fang Diandian has something wrong recently. She wants to talk to her.
âDo you go by yourself?â Chang Peiâe looks at the sky outside.
âLang Ruoxian will send me. He will be back soon.â Tang Duo touches her earrings, âWhere are Dad and Cao?â
Bai Susu takes a toy to attract Leleâs attention, âYour father has gone to play cards with friends. I donât know where Tang Cao has gone. He called at noon and said he would not come back today.â
Bai Susu continues to say, âItâs not the way for him to play around every day. You can talk to Tong Yue later and let him go to work in the company. Even if he is no use, he can do as he is told!â
âTong Yue said before. He asked Xiaopang and Cao to work in the company. As a result, they got into a lot of trouble. Later Tong Yue doesnât let them go. He feels that they increase the burden on the whole company.â
Bai Susu says, âThen let him go out and play.â
âMom, you donât want to put him in our company. Donât let him do harm to others.â Tang Duo smiles, âWe let him play for another two years. When he gets married with someone he likes, he will get better.â
Speaking of this, Bai Susu begins to say again, âHow is he doing with Diandian?â
âI donât know!â Tang Duo hears the noise from the door, âMom, Iâll go first. When I see Diandian, Iâll ask her.â
Lang Ruoxian has a dinner party tonight. He comes back specially to pick up Tang Duo. The place where they eat is the same. Tang Duo and Fang Diandian are in the hall. He is in the private room.
âSend me a message when youâre finished. Iâll come out and pick you up and go home.â
Tang Duo leers at him and says, âDo you think I will be kidnapped without you?â
âNoâ¦â Lang Ruoxian turns the steering wheel.
Just as Tang Duo is about to go on, she hears the man say.
âBut if I let you go out alone, I wonât be at ease.â Lang Ruoxian glances at her, âSorry. I am insecure now because of the last thing. It is difficult for you to cooperate with me.â
Tang Duo squints.
âYou are so pitiful. Will it be pitiless for me not to let you follow me?â
Lang Ruoxian nods, âSo we should not stay too far away from doing anything in the future. Itâs better to stay together.â
âLetâs become conjoined twinsâ¦â
âIt will be possible if there is that technology.â
Tang Duo is speechless.
She loses. Lang Ruoxian can do whatever he wants.
âDonât you really like it?â At the door of the hotel, Lang Ruoxian parks the car and asks her.
Tang Duo shakes her head, âI donât dislike it. But I donât want to interfere with your work.â
âIâll arrange it.â Lang Ruoxian stares at her for a while. After confirming that she is not angry, he says, âI didnât tell you a thing. I didnât want to upset you. But after thinking about it, itâs better to let you know. If there is anything, you can deal with it.â
He tells Tang Duo that Huo Liyun went abroad with them before and took a detour to Tai Island.
âI checked that she didnât contact anyone in Mi Country. But in Tai Island, she went to a temple.â
Tang Duo frowns, âTemple? Did she go to worship Buddha?â
âThereâs a famous master in that temple. Many goblins raised by stars are invited from him.â
Not only stars, many rich people and political people are also superstitious. Tang Ming used to ask a master for advice before. But people with real ability do not go astray. Some of them pay attention to Tai Island.
The masters of Tai Island are proficient in raising goblins and cursing. They are bad.
âShe asks that kind of thing to deal with us.â Tang Duo changes her face. She knows the horror of such things.
Lang Ruoxian hurries to pacify her, âDonât worry. Iâve let Xiaokai go to Tai Island and see if he can find out what she did in the temple.â
âI see.â Tang Duo looks serious, âDonât worry. I will be careful.â
âUm.â
The reason he tells Tang Duo is that he wants her to be careful. Tang Duo is not a willful person. She knows the importance.
When they enter the hotel, they separate. Lang Ruoxian goes to the private room on the second floor. Tang Duo finds Fang Diandian in the corner of the hall. When Tang Duo sees Fang Diandian, she is surprised.
âWhy are you so thin?â
Did she cut her bones? She had a round face before. Now sheâs got a sharp chin.
âSister Duo, you are coming!â Fang Diandian smiles at her, âSit down.â
Tang Duo sits down and looks at her, âWhatâs wrong with you? You are not in a good spirit. You have such dark circles under your eyes. Is the school homework busy?â
âWell, Iâve been preparing my paper recently.â Fang Diandian opens the menu, âLetâs order first.â
After ordering all the favorite dishes, Tang Duo calls the waiter, âStew another forest frog for me and stew it with peach gum.â
When the waiter leaves, Tang Duo says, âYou have to take good care of your health. You donât have any blood on your face. People who donât know must think youâve been abused.â
âIâm fine. Iâm just too tired and I have a bad appetite.â Fang Diandian smiles and says, âIâll be fine after this.â
After all the dishes are served, Fang Diandian really eats very little. She doesnât eat after a few chopsticks. Tang Duo watches her all the time and finally wipes her mouth.
âCome on, tell me the truth, whatâs going on?â
âAh?â Fang Diandian is confused, âWhatâ¦â
âDonât pretend. You must have something.â Tang Duo glares at her, âYou are not tired. Youâre sad.â
Fang Diandian is stunned. She bites her lips and thinks of something. Then her tears come down.
âIâm sorryâ¦â She cries out, âI⦠I canât control it.â
Tang Duo hands her the tissue, âThen donât control, cry! Cry loudly!â
Some people look over secretly. Tang Duo doesnât care. Fang Diandian cries for a while and then realizes that others are looking at her. She sniffs and stops crying.
âIs it related to Tang Cao?â Tang Duo says definitely.
Fang Diandian immediately denies, âNo.â
âAre you sure?â
She doesnât remember Fang Diandian. But even Lang Ruoxian said that Fang Diandian likes Tang Cao very much. Tang Cao is the only one who can make this girl so sad.
âI can help you if you say it.â Tang Duo hands over the tissue, âCrying canât solve the problem.â
Fang Diandian sobs and looks at her, âSister Duo⦠Tang Cao⦠Did he tell you that he liked anyone?â
âNo!â Tang Duo frowns, âHe didnât say that. What do you mean? Does Tang Cao have anyone he likes?â
âUmâ¦â Fang Diandian wipes away the tears that have just come out, âHe sent her a very expensive gift.â
Tang Duo is stunned, âA gift? Who? Ning Lingshan?â
âSo you knowâ¦â Fang Diandian can hardly control herself. Even Tang Duo knows it. It seems that Tang Cao is really with Ning Lingshan.
â¦What can she say?
Tang Duo wants to say itâs not like that. But if Fang Diandian asks why Tang Cao bought a gift for Ning Lingshan, can she say that Tang Cao and Ning Lingshan spent a night in the hotel?
âSister Duo, Iâm fine.â Fang Diandian rubs her face hard. Tang Duo sees it and feels hurt.
âIâm just lovelorn.â She sniffs, âNo. Iâm not lovelorn. I just have a crush on him. Since he doesnât like me, Iâll give up. Give me some time. Iâll be fine in a few days.â
Tang Duo organizes the language and decides to rescue Tang Cao, âUm⦠Diandian! I can guarantee that Tang Cao doesnât like Ning Lingshan. As for why he sent Ning Lingshan a gift, you can ask Tang Cao directly. Itâs better than you guess here.â
âHe doesnât like Ning Lingshan?â Fang Diandian doesnât even wipe her nose. She asks in a hurry, âReally?â
âYes.â Tang Duo nods hard. She knows her brother. Tang Cao wonât like Ning Lingshan.
Fang Diandian stops sobbing and laughs, âHa-ha⦠Then can I ask him?â
âYes! Ask now!â
âNo, no, no!â Fang Diandian wipes her nose and says, âIâd better ask him face to faceâ¦â
She believes in Tang Duo. Since Tang Duo says no, it should not be. She should ask Tang Duo earlier. These days, she feels miserable. Fang Diandianâs appetite suddenly gets better and she eats a big elbow.
However, when she stands in front of Tang Cao, she suddenly finds that she canât ask.
