Why Did You Provoke Her? She Can Tell Fortunes!-Chapter 276 - 249: Of Course Everything I Did Was for Her
Xue Xing glanced at the female ghost again, and who knows what was on his mind, but he actually admitted that he was the owner of the town.
A person sitting on assets worth at least a billion, yet comes to act as an errand assistant for a newly debuted male star at the beck and call—any fool could see there were other things behind this.
"Don’t tell me you also have a secret crush on Jiang Ci?"
Others: ???
Xue Xing: ???
Being stared at by everyone, Qu Siya said, "What? It’s not impossible."
If looks could kill, she’d probably have been killed by Xue Xing hundreds of times already.
"My sexual orientation is perfectly normal." Xue Xing ground his teeth in hate, stealing a glance at the female ghost beside him, "And I already have someone I like."
Everyone: Are you sure the one you like is a human?
However, they wisely chose to swallow this question back down.
Then they saw Xue Xing’s expression soften noticeably. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦
He began speaking to himself: "Of course, I did all this for her."
He was talking about how he personally turned this town into a place full of ghostly rumors.
And that ’her’, naturally referred to the female ghost.
Even though they had long known this fact from Mu Yunchu, they still couldn’t understand what he stood to gain from it.
"What’s the purpose?"
Although it wasn’t clear who was asking, Xue Xing suddenly raised his voice, looking towards Qin Long and his group, "Of course, it’s because of you people."
"Us?"
Xue Xing said: "Even though I repeatedly stated that this is a privately owned town, and hung signs on every gate, even blocking them with barriers, it still can’t stop people from coming in."
Although this didn’t include Qin Long and his group, they still couldn’t say anything in defense.
Because such behavior was rampant, and even they had seen it many times.
No matter if it’s said to be private land, as long as there’s no all-around surveillance, or ’impregnable’ security facilities around, people will definitely get in.
"So I had no choice but to create some ghost rumors." Xue Xing said.
But as he said this, he grew even angrier.
"I really didn’t expect that, not only did it not stop those people from coming, but after going viral online, attracted a large batch of tourists wanting to explore."
These days, people are rushing to see ghosts.
Xue Xing was speechless.
He originally hoped for the town to quiet down, but unexpectedly achieved the opposite effect.
But now that things have reached this point, even if he clarifies, it probably won’t help.
So he can only think of other ways.
"But I don’t understand, can’t you just install iron fences around the area?" Qu Siya asked, puzzled, "This way those people couldn’t get in, right?"
Xue Xing’s face darkened.
"Of course not."
"I can’t let her feel like she’s trapped in a prison."
He hoped to provide the other with a beautiful and comfortable environment. So even though this town is never open to the public, he would still hire professionals to tidy and manage it occasionally.
Whenever he saw the large piles of living garbage being cleaned up, he would grow even more furious.
Qu Siya felt there might be something wrong with herself. Hearing all this, she actually thought Xue Xing was the pitiful one.
Even felt that those who sneaked in were the excessive ones.
At this moment, they summarized what Xue Xing said with the general idea being, the town was his, the haunting was his doing, and everything was for the female ghost behind him.
Even agreeing to the director to record here was to create some paranormal events, so they’d avoid the place thereafter.
"In short." Xue Xing smirked, coldly looking at the director in the crowd, "There’s no difference between you and those people."
Obviously a private place, yet just for his own selfish desire to make a show, he came to ask if he could rent...
If not for his own reasons, he would never allow so many people to disturb her solitude in this town.
"But she doesn’t even know you."
Qu Siya accurately pointed out the most painful point for him.
What’s the use of doing so much?
Xue Xing couldn’t help but clench his fists, but then sighed and slumped, not knowing if he was speaking to them or to himself.
"It’s okay, she’ll know me later."
Now that he’s met her, it’s already a great start.
It doesn’t matter if she doesn’t recognize him, he has ample time ahead in his life, they could get acquainted slowly.
Qu Siya felt that this person must be crazy.
It’s not a normal person’s thinking at all.
"I don’t care if you want to be with this female ghost, but why did you capture Jiang Ci?"
Xue Xing snorted coldly.
"Don’t worry, I’ll make him leave soon."
"Even if he wants to stay here, I won’t agree."
How could he allow another man nearby her?
After finishing, he turned and ignored Qu Siya, taking another step towards the female ghost.
"Don’t move."
With a gentle wave of her hand, the female ghost drew a line about a palm’s length away at his feet, forbidding Xue Xing from advancing another step.
Clearly, despite not knowing him, she was also very resistant to his proximity.
Yet Xue Xing didn’t care, continuing to walk forward.
Step by step, slowly approaching her.
Gently calling out the name kept in his heart for so long: "Nan Zhi."
Female ghost: !
Probably because he called out her name, the ghost called Nan Zhi was visibly taken aback.
And in that moment of distraction, Xue Xing had unknowingly walked right up to her, spreading his arms to embrace her.
Unfortunately, it hadn’t even been a second before the now-bristling female ghost pushed him away.
Killing intent filled her eyes, looking at him as if he were an enemy.
"Are you asking for death?"
Even her voice was much gloomier than before.
It was clear just how much this action of Xue Xing had angered her.
Even Qu Siya, who had been treating her poorly and threatened not to let her off, didn’t receive such treatment.
The power of a ghost cannot be compared with mortal standards and judging by her attire, she was at least from the Republic era, so possessing mana wasn’t surprising.
What’s more, with almost full force, Xue Xing was instantly sent flying against the courtyard wall.
The impact of the obstruction and massive force, coupled with the resistance against the hard wall and his back, made Xue Xing instantly feel a darkness before his eyes, and as if all his internal organs had shifted.
"Ah!"
The people beside almost died of fright witnessing this scene.
They didn’t dare imagine what would happen if it were them.
If not for Xue Xing still moving, they’d have thought he was beaten to death already.
Yet the person involved didn’t care at all, even coughing up a mouthful of blood, he still stared injuredly at the female ghost.
"You..."
Seeing him as if he did not care for his life, still wanting to advance.
Just then, a loud shout came.
"Bold demon, daring to injure people here!"
Following this, a person descended from the sky.
