C10 A Daughter Who Lost Money

The only lucky thing was that the person I was talking to was not a ghost, but Granny Wang, who lived in the same building as us. They often met after commuting to and from work or buying vegetables, so it wasn't unusual for them to get to know each other over and over again.

"Good morning old granny." I nodded at her, then glared back at Gu Chen. He had supported me earlier, so I thanked him, but could you stop looking at me with disdain now?

Looking at me, goosebumps rose all over my body!

"Good, good, good." Nodding her head, Grandma Wang pulled me along with a smile. "I haven't seen Little Zhe in a while. What have you been busy with recently? You must always go home and look around, not like our little brat. Although he found a lot of money in the city, I still hope that he can come back and see me. "

Grandma Wang's son was also working in the mountain city, but he was still quite a distance away from here. Therefore, he had bought a house to live in and only came back for a visit during the new year's festival. However, Nanny Wang was overjoyed. She told everyone that her son had good prospects, and even said that she would take her to have a happy life.

It was just that she had been speaking like this for two to three years, but nothing had happened.

The neighbors all knew about it, but they didn't say anything about it.

"..."

After chatting for a while, Nanny Wang suddenly thought of something. Oh, by the way, Zirconia, you go home. Your mother and your father are having an argument again. Hurry up and persuade him, otherwise we'll have to fight. "

I sighed. After bidding farewell to Grandma Wang, I brought Gu Chen and jogged back home. Sure enough, I heard the commotion downstairs. Rather than calling it a quarrel, it would be more accurate to say that my stepmother was humiliating my father in every way. My weak father didn't even have the courage to open his mouth to say a single word.

"You'll have to watch a joke tonight." I shrugged my shoulders and shook my head at Gu Chen. Then I took out my key and opened the door. When I opened the door, the conflict instantly shifted onto me. The stepmother had a stern expression on her face as she put her hands on her hips and pointed at me while swearing, "Your daughter who lost money is back."

I pay five figures a month for living expenses at home. I just ask, how did you lose money? If she didn't work every day, she would have to go out and play mahjong. What kind of money did she earn?

My father gave me an aggrieved look. Although he felt that his stepmother had gone too far, he still sat there quietly without uttering a single word.

He was already used to being bullied by that woman and felt that there was no need to fight back.

I didn't want to argue with them, so I took Gu Chen to the small house inside. My brother and I slept on the top and bottom bunk. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have stayed in this house anymore! Gu Chen watched the scene unfold from the spectator's point of view, an enigmatic smile plastered on his face.

"Zhe, I found your home, it's quite interesting." He whispered into my ear and raised his eyebrows slightly.

"You actually brought back a man?!" The stepmother finally reacted and yelled at my father, "Your daughter is capable! Not only is she a loser, but she also wants people to come with her. Truly capable!"

I didn't want to waste my time arguing with him. I dragged Gu Chen into the small house inside, where my grandfather used to live. After he went missing, everything was still arranged in the same meticulous manner as before, and I would come here every three to five days to clean everything up.

Inside, there were many things to deal with evil spirits, such as peach wood swords and yellow paper talismans. Considering the stats of a certain wraith, I asked a little too much, "Can you enter this place? These things shouldn't be able to harm you, right? "

"Naturally." He replied with a simple word and swaggered in. However, he leaned over me. "Zhe, did you just, care about me?"

It scared me so much that my goosebumps all over the ground!
