Crying Brothers: The Little Sister We Hate Is Actually a Bigshot-Chapter 13
Chapter 13
Ji Jing wanted to find Wang Cai, but she didn’t want to run into those annoying guys on the way down. So, she held onto the railing, turned her body to the side, and landed lightly on the lawn.
She quickly made her way to the dog house, and Wang Cai opened his eyes as soon as he smelled her. He was about to bark, but Ji Jing quickly put her finger to her lips and whispered, “Shh, Wang Cai!”
Wang Cai understood what she meant and kept quiet, but he stood up and rubbed against Ji Jing.
Ji Jing patted Wang Cai’s head and began to untie the leash that was tied to the dog house. She couldn’t stand the constant trouble that her family brought, and she wanted to take Wang Cai out for a walk to clear her mind.
Moreover, there was a place in C City that she planned to visit, and it was still early, not even 8 o’clock yet. It was the perfect time to go out.
After wrapping the leash around her wrist, Ji Jing reassured Wang Cai, “Wang Cai, we’re in the city now, so you’ll have to bear with me and let me lead you. But once we’re out of the city, you’ll be free to run.”
“Wang Cai, let’s go!”
Ji Jing’s family mansion was located in the wealthy villa area near the outskirts of C City. Once you left the villa area, you would enter the countryside with deserted hills and mountains. However, one of her old acquaintances lived in a resettlement village not far from the villa area.
Ji Jing walked with Wang Cai, using her skills to avoid the surveillance cameras and quickly crossed the villa area, arriving at the side of the highway.
Then, she took out her phone and opened a ride-hailing app, waiting for a driver to accept her request.
Normally, the roads outside the villa area were well-built, but there were not many cars passing by, and it might take an hour or more to hail a ride. However, to her surprise, her ride was accepted by a familiar license plate just minutes after 8 o’clock.
After waiting for two more minutes, a private car stopped in front of Ji Jing. The owner of the car seemed to recognize Ji Jing and was pleasantly surprised, flashing his headlights.
Ji Jing got in the passenger seat with a smile. “Lao Fang, long time no see!”
Fang Master was also very happy to see her. “Zi Zhu Dao Chang, long time no see. What brings you to this side?”
Ji Jing answered, “Something came up recently, so I’m staying with a family in this area for the time being. Don’t be so polite. How’s your mother doing lately?”
Fang Master replied, “Everything’s fine! She goes out every day to dance in the square, and there’s an old man who often accompanies her, haha.”
Fang Master had once come to their Taoist temple to seek help. His mother had become very ill, and her condition was rapidly deteriorating. She had been admitted to the hospital, where the doctors could only diagnose organ failure without knowing the root cause.
This had panicked Fang Master. Although he was a resident of C City who had been displaced due to demolition, the developer had only compensated them with a small amount of money for their house, and they had to rely on his wife’s work as a nanny and his own ride-hailing business to make ends meet. Plus, their daughter was still in middle school, and the expenses were not insignificant, causing them a lot of financial stress.
Master Fang took his mother to several top-tier hospitals, but they all gave the same result. Finally, a fellow patient pointed him towards a mystical path, and as a last resort, Master Fang decided to try it.
He spent a lot of money hiring a Taoist priest, but was told that they were unable to cure his mother. The Taoist said that there was something strange about the evil spirits on Master Fang’s mother, and that their skills were not sufficient to save her. The Taoist even refunded Master Fang’s payment, only accepting a hundred yuan for travel expenses.
Master Fang was completely stunned, thinking that the Taoist didn’t feel he had paid enough. But the Taoist was resolute, saying that it wasn’t a matter of money. Finally, seeing how desperate Master Fang was to save his mother, the Taoist said to him, “If you believe in me, go to Lingyun Mountain and find the Purple Bamboo Taoist.”
Lingyun Mountain was more than a hundred kilometers away from C City!
But Master Fang had no other options, gritted his teeth, and drove there.
This is how Master Fang met with the Purple Bamboo Taoist.
In the end, Ji Jing did not disappoint Master Fang’s expectations, and was able to remove the evil spirits from his mother.
Master Fang didn’t believe in all of this at first, but when he saw his mother’s health improve day by day, this man in his forties cried like a child.
Afterwards, he insisted on thanking Ji Jing and invited her to dinner at his home.
It was also during their dinner conversation that Ji Jing learned that Master Fang drove for an online car-hailing service every day, with a morning shift that started from taking his daughter to school and ended with picking her up after school. Afterwards, he would rest at home for a while before heading out at 8 pm for his night shift.
Today, Ji Jing happened to be living nearby, so she specifically took his car.
If someone who has been affected by evil spirits doesn’t have a peaceful soul, they are very likely to be affected again. Therefore, Ji Jing just wanted to check in on the old acquaintance’s recent situation.
Master Fang said, “You’re living nearby, just let me know if you need a ride. I’ll pick you up and drop you off!”
Ji Jing smiled, “Thanks in advance! Tonight, I actually need to go to the Ouli Building in the city center.”
