Chapter 1409: Fingers that itched to rip
Chapter 1409: Fingers that itched to rip
Inside the office, Madam Zheng was not in a good mood. She had just contacted the foreign investor to ask when she needed to arrange for her exhibition. Instead, he told her that there was no need to arrange one as he was cancelling the exhibition. Cancelled?
She had been preparing for it for a long time and now the investor was saying that she did not need to continue with it. How could Zheng Baozhi not be upset?
When she saw that assistant Huo was calling her, she did not pick up her phone instead she picked up a vase that was sitting on the table and then threw it down on the floor. The pieces of the vase scattered all over the floor as she said to Yuan Heng, "Sister Yu, tell Little Huo that I am not in the mood to see the celestial master. Ask him to make that master wait, if my mood gets better then I will see the master if not send her back. I will meet with her tomorrow and just give her a few yuan to settle everything."
Yuan Heng did not think that this was the right attitude. Especially given that the celestial master was the disciple of Master Gu.
What was more, everyone knew that it was better to be respectful to the celestial masters as nothing good would come out of disrespecting them.
She asked Zheng Baozhi to be a tad bit more respectful but the latter did not think too much of it. She waved her hand and said, "Sister Yuan, in the end, isn't she just some master who roams on the streets for money? What's the difference between her and the masters who stand behind the stalls? Isn't it just that she is the disciple of Gu Chenyi? If it was master Chenyi himself then I would have rushed to meet him. But the person is his disciple, compared to Master Gu...that woman must still be unskilled. There is no need for you to worry about anything."
She rolled her eyes and said, "Just hand her some money and she will be fine."
After pausing for a moment Zheng Baozhi added, "Even the masters from the Heavenly Moon Sect told me that my problem was too complicated and that I needed someone who had cultivated for at least eighty to ninety years. How can a newly accepted disciple solve it for me? We might as well wait for the masters to contact the perfected ones of their sect." "But--"
"Ugh, Sister Yuan. You are being too timid," Zheng Baozhi scoffed. "Just tell the woman that I am busy."
Seeing that Zheng Baozhi really did not want to meet with the celestial master, Yuan Heng could only sigh and answer Assistant Huo's call, "Little Huo, ask the master to wait for a little bit and if she is busy, ask her to come tomorrow. You can compensate her as she tells you." "But Sister Yuan, the master, has already left!" Assistant Huo was having a headache when he thought about how they might have offended the disciple of the Gu sect. "She saw that Madam Zheng was not waiting for her and turned to leave even when I asked her to stop. She did not listen to me."
Though Assistant Huo also had some unspeakable doubts towards Song Yan as she was too young, he couldn't help but think that maybe the woman was too skilled. If she was not good enough would Master Gu take her as his disciple?
There was also the jade token that she was carrying.
"What did you say? She already left?" Yuan Heng felt her headache. She had contacted that woman after finding out that she was able to solve the Ji and Tang family's problem.
Now it was good, Zheng Baozhi seemed to have offended that woman!
When Zheng Baozhi heard that the master had already left, she was not in a good mood. It was one thing that she sent that good-for-nothing away but it was another thing if that woman left on her own accord. It was equivalent to that woman slapping on her face.
"Humph, she really has a big face. Just because she was lucky enough to be accepted as the disciple of Master Gu, she is acting so lawless," Zheng Baozhi complained and insulted Song Yan behind her back. In her eyes, only she could insult others and no one could insult her. She snorted and then added, "It's fine as well. We don't need to waste any money to please her."
Yuan Heng wanted to say something but as soon as she turned to look at Zheng Baozhi, she stiffened.
Her complexion turned pale and she immediately staggered back.
Seeing her like this Zheng Baozhi couldn't help but open her mouth, she asked, "What's wrong with you sister Yuan?"
Yuan Heng whimpered as she screamed, "Don't! Don't come near me!"
At first, Zheng Baozhi did not understand what was going on but then as she turned to look at the mirror, her eyes almost rolled back in her sockets.
Because at that moment, a bunch of fingers were itching towards her mouth from the back of her throat. Zheng Baozhi hadn't felt uncomfortable when she did not see this thing but now that she had seen it, her expression changed. She turned to Yuan Heng and screamed in panic, "Call that woman! Call her back at any cost--ahhhhh!"
The studio was thrown into chaos once again. They had thought that the talisman the master from Heavenly Moon Sect gave them would be able to suppress the evil entity but it seemed like it was not enough as the talisman burned to a crisp!
Song Yan was driving back home when she received Yuan Heng's call. Of course, she was not going to pick it up as she was not someone without a temper.
However, when she ignored the call another one came and then another. It went on and on until Song Yan got irritated and answered it through the Bluetooth earpiece.
"Master! Can you please come back? Something happened and I——"
"Madam Yuan, do you think that I am a pet of your boss?" Song Yan asked with a roll of her eyes. "It is ridiculous enough that you called me when you were unavailable for the appointment and now you want me to return your call?"
"I am a celestial master. Not a dog or cat who will return your call!"
Song Yan's mood wasn't good to begin with but for the sake of professionalism, she went to Zheng Baozhi's studio. Who would have thought that she would be disrespected in such a manner? Did they think that she had no temper or respect?
When Yuan Heng heard Song Yan's words, she was scared witless. Zheng Baozhi was not in a good condition if this went on then the thing inside her body would tear her mouth!
Hearing the muffled cries of Zheng Baozhi behind her, Yuan Heng almost knelt for Song Yan. She begged in an ugly voice, "Master...please..please come and help us. I promise whether or not you fix this matter, we will pay you twenty million yuan."
"Fifty." Song Yan yawned as she said, "I woke up early and drove to the studio when I had a bunch of other things to do. I am not returning unless I get my worth. Are you handing out alms? Even my visiting fee is ten million yuan. Do you not know this?"
Yuan Heng stiffened. She really did not know that the visiting fee of Song Yan was actually ten million yuan.
She glanced at Zheng Baozhi before gritting her teeth and agreeing, "Fifty million. We will hand you fifty million if you come and solve this matter for us."
Only then did Song Yan humm and turned the direction of the car. She drove back to Zheng Baozhi's studio and this time around Assistant Huo was even more respectful to her than
before.
"Please follow me, master!" He said to her as he urged her to come to the second floor with
her.
Seeing his solicitous attitude, Song Yan sneered. Sure enough, unless people were taught a lesson they do not learn their place.
She followed Assistant Huo and arrived at the second floor where Zheng Baozhi's office was. As soon as she arrived at the second floor, Assistant Huo pushed open the door.
Inside the office, Zheng Baozhi was on her knees as she tried to vomit the hand that had stretched out of her mouth. Upon seeing such a sight Song Yan scrunched up her brows as she could smell the rotten scent of human flesh.
Seeing that Zheng Baozhi's mouth was about to be stretched past her limit, Song Yan threw a talisman at the woman.
No sooner did the talisman touch Zheng Baozhi's skin, than the hand that was stretching Zheng Baozhi's mouth paused and a a small scream echoed in the room before the hand turned into wisps of smoke and went back inside Zheng Baozhi's mouth.
