"Did you use this wind chime to bring back Chen Qiang's soul?" Xia Jingsheng asked.

Seeing that his expression was not right, Mo Hong nodded hesitantly: "Is there something wrong with this wind chime?"

Xia Jingsheng held the copper wind chime and carefully observed the pattern on it: "This wind chime is not an ordinary bell for summoning souls, but a bell for inviting ghosts."

"Ghost bell please?!" Mo Hong was stunned.

"Hanging this bell indoors and chanting the mantra can drive away all ghosts, but once the bell is taken off, all ghosts will turn back." Xia Jingsheng said.

Mo Hong recalled that she had taken down the wind chime with her own hands, and wanted to drive Chen Qiang away, but she didn't expect to be attacked by a hundred ghosts. Chen Qiang blocked the attack of a hundred ghosts for her, sacrificing her spirit body for nothing.

Xia Jingsheng looked at her expression and asked, "Chen Qiang's spirit body was swallowed by a hundred ghosts?"

That frightening picture once again appeared before Mo Hong's eyes.

She couldn't help shivering: "I don't want to, I just want him to go back, I didn't expect..."

Xia Jingsheng shook his head and said, "It's easy to ask God to send God away, but you personally invited Chen Qiang's soul, and it will follow you all the time. It's not so easy to send it back."

Mo Hong understood everything, she believed Taoist Xianyun's words, and mistakenly thought that doing so could drive away Chen Qiang's soul, but she did not expect to fall into the trap that Taoist Xianyun had arranged earlier in the morning.

Now that Song Hui and Taoist Xianyun are chasing her everywhere and spreading rumors that she is dead, Mo Hong doesn't know what to do.

She looked at Xia Jingsheng anxiously: "Mr. Xia, can I hand over this wind chime to you?"

Xia Jingsheng looked at the wind chime, "Try it."

Mo Hong looked puzzled. She was just about to get up and leave when the wind chime returned to her embrace as if it had grown legs.

"This..." Mo Hong looked at the wind chime in her arms in surprise.

"The ghost bell has recognized its master, and it will follow you until you die." Xia Jingsheng said calmly, but Mo Hong's face paled from fright.

No wonder these days, she always has a feeling of being watched. It turns out that those things have been following her, never far away.

"Mr. Xia..." Mo Hong glanced at her body, but there was nothing valuable.

"Please, save me." She looked at Xia Jingsheng in embarrassment.

"Mo Hong, I don't do good deeds." Xia Jingsheng picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Mo Hong gritted her teeth, took out the gold chain hidden on the bottom of the shoe, and handed it to Xia Jingsheng: "There is only this."

The chain was made of pure gold, after Xia Jingsheng looked at it, he handed it to Ah Bao for safekeeping.

"If you don't die, those things will follow you forever." Xia Jingsheng said, "For the current plan, only feigning death can fool Ghost Bell."

Among the alchemy techniques, there is a technique of feigning death. If you drink it in water soaked with drunken flowers, you will be able to die for seven days. After the seven days are over, you will wake up, just like ordinary people.

The so-called drunken flower is the most brilliant Manjusawa on Huangquan Road.

When Xia Jingsheng was in the underworld, he collected this flower, ground it into powder and used it as medicine in case of emergencies.

At this moment, he handed over the "fake death medicine" to Mo Hong, and said: "You should think about it. After taking this medicine, you must wake up in seven days before you can be a normal person. If you wake up too early or miss the day, you will be killed." Will die."

Mo Hong nodded and said, "I've already made up my mind to put it to death and live."

"In that case, I will send someone to take you to Longhu Mountain immediately. Don't worry, there is Ah Bao, there are no ghosts, and no one can do anything to you. Longhu Mountain has strict rules and regulations. When you get there, even if the idle cloud Taoists have the ability to reach the heavens, and they dare not act rashly."

Mo Hong thanked Xia Jingsheng, and embarked on the journey to Longhu Mountain with Ah Bao.

When Sun Wenxi came back from the bank, as soon as he entered the door, the butler smiled and said, "Young master, the person you ordered has been found, and he is a top-notch cook in Jiangcheng."

"I'll go and have a look." Sun Wenxi put his coat on his hands, and followed the housekeeper to the kitchen.

Today, the cook is a disheveled cook, the butler said with a smile: "Master, this is this, Master Cai. Master Cai has won many awards before, and he is a good cook of Jiangcheng cuisine."

Sun Wenxi saw that Master Cai was skillful in cooking, so he raised his hand to pick up a piece of the freshly prepared eight-treasure duck, tasted it, and said with satisfaction: "Not bad."

Before getting married, the cook of the Sun family could only cook northern dishes. Sun Wenxi thought that Xia Jingsheng was not used to it, so he specially asked someone to hire a chef who knew how to cook Jiangcheng dishes.

As soon as Sun Wenxi walked out of the kitchen, he heard two little girls passing by whisper: "I heard that Young Master Xia kicked people out of the house the first day, how cruel it is."

"Who says it's not? I've heard that when the woman left, her eyes were red. She was escorted by the evil servant next to Young Master Xia herself."

"What are you talking about?!" Sun Wenxi shouted.

The two servant girls were startled, seeing Sun Wenxi, they hurriedly bowed and said, "Master...we..."

The housekeeper looked serious, and knocked: "Tell me the truth!"

The two maids didn't dare to hide any more, so they said everything.

It turned out that Yuan Bao who served Xia Jingsheng told them that Xia Jingsheng didn't like Sun Shao at all, but that the new woman who arrived last night had the hope of becoming the concubine of Sun's house in the future.Unexpectedly, as soon as Sun Wenxi left, Xia Jingsheng sent him out of the mansion, and Yuan Bao secretly said that Xia Jingsheng was overbearing.

Sun Wenxi frowned upon hearing this: "A servant, how dare you arrange a master behind your back like this?! How do you become a housekeeper?!"

Seeing Sun Wenxi's gloomy face, the butler secretly thought something was wrong.

This ingot was regarded as a distant relative of the housekeeper, relying on this relationship, he got the job of serving Xia Jingsheng closely.

The housekeeper also knew his temperament of worshiping the superior and trampling the inferior, but he didn't expect that in just one day, this guy would start to gossip and cause trouble.

"Master, calm down, I will discipline him well." The butler promised.

"No need, I will teach these evil servants myself." Sun Wenxi said with a sullen face, and quickened his pace.

The butler's heart skipped a beat, knowing that this time, Yuan Bao's fate was far from good.

It can be seen that this is a blind person, and it is obviously a big mistake to say that the new son-in-law does not please Sun Shao.

At meal time, when everyone was at the table, Sun Wenxi glanced behind Xia Jingsheng, and saw Yuan Bao standing there with eyes darting around and a shrewd expression on his face.

"You are Yuanbao?" Sun Wenxi asked.

Yuan Bao was stunned for a moment, and then his face was filled with joy: "The villain is right."

"Come on, get out of the mansion!" Sun Wenxi ordered, and everyone present was stunned.

Yuan Bao was even more dumbfounded: "Young...young master...what did I do wrong?"

Sun Wenxi shouted: "Steward, tell me."

The housekeeper bowed his head and said: "According to the family rules, the evil servants arrange the master behind the scenes, so they should be kicked out of the house and never hired."

Yuan Bao's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at Sun Wenxi in disbelief.

Before taking up the post, the housekeeper once told him to have good eyesight.

He observed carefully, and Sun Shao was clearly lukewarm towards Young Master Xia, without the enthusiasm of a newlywed at all, so he thought that Young Master Xia would not be favored.

But now...he is about to be kicked out of the mansion because of what he said.

This time, Yuan Bao finally regained his wits. He knelt down in front of Xia Jingsheng, and begged, "Young Master Xia, I really didn't mean it, please forgive me this time."

He originally thought that if Xia Jingsheng didn't get angry that morning, he must be a good-natured master, as long as he said a few more nice words, Xia Jingsheng would ask him to stay.

But Xia Jingsheng just glanced at him and said coldly, "I don't want people who don't understand the rules."

"Did you hear that?" Sun Wenxi snorted coldly, "Housekeeper, what are you waiting for?"

Yuan Bao was kicked out.

"From now on, those who talk about the master behind his back will be dealt with together." Sun Wenxi's words made the hearts of the servants present tremble.

Xia Jingsheng looked at the dishes on the table, a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.

He originally thought that when he arrived at Sun's house, everything would be different from what it used to be at home, and it was common for the food to be unpalatable.

But the dishes on this table today are more like home-cooked dishes in Jiangcheng.

After taking a bite of the eight-treasure duck, Xia Jingsheng's eyes widened in surprise. The eight-treasure duck made by the cook from the Sun family was even more delicate than the cook from the Xia family.

Sun Wenxi kept watching from the sidelines, secretly remembering Xia Jingsheng's favorite dishes.

Seeing that Xia Jingsheng's food was quite delicious, he felt relieved.

After dinner, the two were alone in the room again.

Sun Wenxi has always been proactive, but at this time, he did not speak.Once he fell silent, there was only silence that filled the room.

For a while, only the sound of pages turning could be heard in the new house.

Although no one was disturbing him, Xia Jingsheng couldn't calm down and read the book.

Although he was holding the book, he didn't read any of the words on it, and his eyes always looked in the direction of the desk unconsciously.

Sun Wenxi was sitting at the desk writing, compared to Xia Jingsheng, he was much more at ease.

After dealing with work matters, Sun Wenxi got up to take a shower.

As soon as Sun Wenxi left, Xia Jingsheng began to think wildly, and his intuition told him that Sun Wenxi was unhappy and treated him indifferently. Even if they couldn't consummate the house, there should still be jokes and intimacy between the two of them. He had never seen Sun Wenxi laugh happily. , are you still angry about the dismissal of the dowry?

He didn't know what to do to change this situation.

Sun Wenxi opened the bathroom door, and saw Xia Jingsheng standing outside the door, staring straight at him.

"What are you doing?" Sun Wenxi asked.

"Wen Xi, let's talk." Xia Jingsheng said.

They really sat down face to face, Xia Jingsheng sat upright, while Sun Wenxi was much more casual.

The front of his bathrobe was wide open, and there were still drops of water on his chest, and he just sat there carelessly.

"Wenxi, I'm sorry." Xia Jingsheng came up with a sincere attitude of admitting his mistake.

In contrast, Sun Wenxi seemed careless, he turned his head to look at Xia Jingsheng: "Why do you apologize?"

"I shouldn't have returned the dowry on my own."

"There's nothing wrong with it. Since the dowry is for you, there's nothing wrong with you returning it." Sun Wenxi looked at him with a half-smile.

"I just don't want others to say that I married you for money." Xia Jingsheng unconsciously tightened the gown on his knees.

"It's not for money, what is it for?" Sun Wenxi looked into Xia Jingsheng's eyes, and gradually narrowed the distance between them.

Xia Jingsheng looked at the getting closer and closer, and suddenly became flustered: "It's not about money after all!"

After saying these words, Sun Wenxi's movements stopped suddenly.

After a while, he squeezed out an "oh".

Xia Jingsheng looked at him inexplicably, as if he didn't understand what "oh" meant.

Sun Wenxi pursed her lips: "Understood, have you finished what you want to say?"

"It's over." Xia Jingsheng looked at Sun Wenxi suspiciously, he felt that Sun Wenxi was still not very happy.

When Sun Wenxi was happy, his eyes were bright, but now the light in his eyes has dimmed.

"Then it's my turn." Sun Wenxi said, "Jing Sheng, why didn't you refuse this marriage?"

Xia Jingsheng didn't expect him to ask such a question at all, and replied subconsciously: "The ceremony is all set..."

"Just because of this?! Does that mean that no matter who you are, as long as you go to the step of three media and six hires, you can accept each other?" Sun Wenxi raised his voice.

"Of course not!" Xia Jingsheng was startled, and frowned, "How can you say that? In your eyes, I am this kind of person? Of course I married you because you are Sun Wenxi."

Sun Wenxi raised his hand to cover his mouth, and took a deep breath: "I was too impulsive just now, I apologize."

The two were sitting face to face, but Sun Wenxi pulled the chair closer and held Xia Jingsheng's hand: "You just said that I agreed to the marriage because I am Sun Wenxi, so can I understand that you like me? ?”

Xia Jingsheng nodded.

Sun Wenxi's heart beat wildly: "I want to hear you say it yourself."

"I like you." Xia Jingsheng said.

He was very happy when he saw Sun Wenxi's moved expression.

But in the next second, Sun Wenxi put away his smile.

He pressed against Xia Jingsheng's ear and said softly, "But Jingsheng, I don't feel that you like me."

Xia Jingsheng froze in place as if struck by lightning, and after a while he managed to say, "What did you say?"

"Jing Sheng, if you like a person, you are all about him, and you will desperately want to be together. Because I am Sun Wenxi, you married me. I am very happy, but this is not enough."

Sun Wenxi didn't continue talking, he sighed: "I'm tired, go to sleep."

Xia Jingsheng walked into the bathroom in a daze, his mind was full of Sun Wenxi's words - "I don't feel that you like me."

The warm water wrapped his whole body, Xia Jingsheng couldn't figure out why Sun Wenxi would say such a sentence.

He stayed in the bathroom for a long time, and when he came out, Sun Wenxi had already fallen asleep face-in.

Xia Jingsheng lay down slowly on the outside. In the darkness, he asked, "Wen Xi, are you asleep?"

There was no answer.

Xia Jingsheng looked at Sun Wenxi's back and said softly, "Good night."

When he fell asleep, Sun Wenxi on the inside slowly opened his eyes.

Sun Wenxi turned around and looked at Xia Jingsheng's sleeping face under the hazy moonlight. He sighed softly and put his arms around him.

The next morning, when Xia Jingsheng opened his eyes, he was lying face to face with Sun Wenxi.

Looking at Sun Wenxi's face, Xia Jingsheng was slightly taken aback. He clearly remembered that before falling asleep, Sun Wenxi turned his back.

Just thinking about it, the young servant called out softly: "You two young masters, it's time to get up."

Sun Wenxi was still asleep.

Xia Jingsheng gently pushed him: "Wen Xi, get up, Wen Xi..."

Sun Wenxi still showed no signs of waking up.

"Could it be that you're sick?" Xia Jingsheng raised his hand and touched Sun Wenxi's forehead.

But the person who was supposed to be asleep grabbed his wrist.

"You..." Xia Jingsheng was startled by him.

"What time is it?" Sun Wenxi slowly opened his eyes.

"Hurry up, don't you have to go to work?" Xia Jingsheng pushed him.

"Does Jingsheng want me to go to work?" Sun Wenxi propped his head on one hand and asked leisurely, "If you say you don't want to, I won't go."

Sun Wenxi looked at Xia Jingsheng with clear eyes, waiting for his answer.

"Stop making trouble, it will be too late." Xia Jingsheng sat up.

The moment he opened the curtain, he heard Sun Wenxi's voice: "Jing Sheng, you are always like this. You say you like me, but you don't care at all. Don't you want to stay with me more? Don't you want to listen to me? ?”

Xia Jingsheng turned his head in astonishment, but Sun Wenxi didn't delay any longer, quickly put on his clothes, ate two mouthfuls of breakfast hastily, and went out.

Sun Wenxi dealt with Yuan Bao vigorously and resolutely yesterday, so naturally there would be no unsightly servants to speak ill of Xia Jingsheng.

The mansion was much quieter, but Xia Jingsheng couldn't calm down.

He didn't understand why Sun Wenxi seemed very dissatisfied with him.

What are "I can't feel that you love me" and "Talking that he likes me, but acting like he doesn't care at all", Xia Jingsheng is very puzzled by these descriptions.

In his few impressions of family life, Xia Gongcheng and Lin Yue's way of getting along is such a respectful way.

Xia Gongcheng worked hard outside and spent little time with Lin Yue, but Lin Yue managed the family well.

Xia Jingsheng knew that Lin Yue loved Xia Gongcheng very much, and when he was young, he often saw Lin Yue dressing Xia Gongcheng and cooking.

Lin Yue loves outings and shopping in markets, but she never asks Xia Gongcheng to accompany her.

From Xia Jingsheng's point of view, this is a very normal thing.

Why did it become "If you say you don't want to, I won't go to work" when I came to Sun Wenxi's place?

Xia Jingsheng sat in a state of confusion for a while before remembering that there was still work to be done.

A few days ago, he agreed to Mu Tongshe's invitation to attend the event, and today he will first meet with Mu Tongshe President Zhao Siheng.

The two made an appointment to meet at the coffee shop. When Xia Jingsheng arrived, he saw three men sitting at a table by the window. The two were wearing the uniforms of the Jiangcheng Art School. One of them must be the president Zhao Siheng.

Sure enough, the three of them stood up, and a boy with a vertical cut cut smiled at Xia Jingsheng and said, "Mr. Xia, I've known you for a long time. I'm Zhao Siheng."

When he smiled, there were two pear dimples on his lips, which was very friendly.

"This is my other half, Xu Yan." Zhao Siheng smiled and pointed to the man wearing glasses.

Xu Yan was wearing a brown gown, obviously older than Zhao Siheng, he stretched out his hand, and shook Xia Jingsheng's hand politely: "Hello."

"And this one, Yao Siyan, is my classmate and good friend." Zhao Siheng pointed to another student wearing a school uniform.

Yao Siyan has a pair of peach blossom eyes, and there is a tear mole under his eyes. It is rare for a boy to have such a "gorgeous" appearance.

"Hello, Mr. Xia." He also spoke softly, with a hint of coquettishness.

The four of them sat down, Yao Siyan looked at the menu and said with a smile: "This store has iced sour plum soup, shall we try it?"

Xu Yan nodded and said, "I have no objection."

Zhao Siheng looked at Xu Yan disapprovingly: "Now that it's autumn, it's better not to drink iced ones, but to drink them at room temperature."

Yao Siyan frowned slightly dissatisfied upon hearing this, but didn't say much.

"Don't be angry, I'm treating guests today. The cream mousse in this store is good, do you want to try it?" Xu Yan smiled and glanced at Yao Siyan.

"That's about the same!" Yao Siyan's eyes lit up, satisfied.

"Ayan, you're so used to him, you're so hot-tempered towards him, you don't know who can stand him in the future." Zhao Siheng laughed.
