C8 Born with It

"So you know about me, do you?"

The man on the opposite sofa did not answer Meng Xiaobai's question. Instead, he got up and walked to the European high platform. He reached out his hand to carefully fiddle with a luxuriant flat-leaf tree.

"Why don't you answer me? It's a difficult question to answer. You're not the King of the Underworld, you're not a priest of Maoshan fortune-telling, don't tell me you can't tell me."

Suddenly, Yu Moxiang turned around and chuckled. Meng Xiaobai, who was stunned on the spot, felt a chill run down her spine.

That smile was not the smile of a normal person.

"You can't really be the Underworld King of the Underworld, right?"

"You have quite the imagination."

Yu Moxiang looked at Meng Xiaobai's pale face and quickly smiled. This time, his smile was somewhat genuine.

"You're quite bold. You clearly knew that I wasn't the same type of person as you, yet you still dared to come to me."

Meng Xiaobai didn't know what she had been thinking all this time. Yu Moxiang was too mysterious to her.

Furthermore, during this period of time, Meng Xiaobai seemed to have seen too many unbelievable things.

For Yu Moxiang, who could always save her when she was in a difficult situation, he was like a life-saving straw that she wanted to grab tightly onto.

"So, what exactly do you know about me? I don't want to be in a passive position all the time."

Yu Moxiang pinched one of the leaves in his hand, and the emerald green leaf quickly turned into a golden talisman.

He took a few steps forward and handed the golden talisman to Meng Xiaobai.

"This talisman can be exchanged for your life. You can't lose it if you carry it with you."

Meng Xiaobai took the golden talisman in embarrassment. Only then did Yu Moxiang nod his head in satisfaction and said, "Since you took my golden talisman, you should know that your life won't be smooth sailing from now on. Are you ready?"

Meng Xiaobai was startled, but she quickly nodded her head. She had already made up her mind.

It was fate that he could not escape with his life.

There seemed to be some hesitation in Yu Moxiang's eyes, but when he saw Meng Xiaobai looking at him expectantly, he felt a little helpless.

He did not know if Meng Xiaobai, who knew nothing at all, would be able to handle it in the coming days.

"You are born with the Yin Yang Eyes, and they are the key to the world of Yin and Yang, but once a living person has the Yin Yang Eyes, it is like stepping into an abyss."

As Yu Moxiang spoke, he glanced at Meng Xiaobai's pale face and continued, "After all, humans and ghosts are different. Ghosts are much more terrifying than humans, but sometimes, humans are even more unpredictable than ghosts. Their lives can be in danger at any time. You need to be mentally prepared."

At this point, Yu Moxiang frowned slightly. "Besides, don't meddle in other people's business. You don't have any magic power on you right now. If you interfere, it will be a matter of life and death."

"I know what I'm doing."

Just as Meng Xiaobai finished speaking, the lines on Yu Moxiang's forehead deepened.

Why did he not believe her?

Wasn't it always that girl, Meng Xiaobai, who took the initiative to interfere and make decisions?

With a sigh, Yu Moxiang made a gesture of invitation. "Time's up. I won't be sending you off."

Meng Xiaobai was stunned for a moment before standing up with the golden talisman in her hand. Just as she picked up her bag and was about to leave, she seemed to have thought of something.

She turned around and took out a small brown paper bag from her bag, handing it to Yu Moxiang.

He said: "Although your hospitality is very poor, since you have answered some of my doubts, this is my present to you. Don't mention it to me."

With that, Meng Xiaobai placed the brown paper bag on the table in front of Yu Moxiang and turned to leave.

"Oh right!"

Meng Xiaobai, who suddenly stopped, turned around and said, "Thank you for saving me before. I will repay this favor."

Yu Moxiang looked at Meng Xiaobai's back as she left, and his expression quickly became depressed.

Once upon a time, she had such a temper and liked to speak to him in such a manner. However, now that she was gone, everything was different from before, but it was also similar to the past.

Yu Moxiang lowered his eyes and looked at the brown paper bag in front of him.

When he opened it, he found some pink nougat inside. Each piece of nougat was sprinkled with a layer of crispy nuts.

The corners of Yu Moxiang's mouth curled up into a smile. He reached out and peeled off the outer layer of the nougat. At the same time, he also peeled off the wrapper covering the nougat.

He placed it in his mouth and waited for the nougat, which had a faint lemon and strawberry taste, to slowly melt in his mouth.

"Hmm, it's still not delicious."

After muttering to himself, Yu Moxiang spat out the nougat in his mouth and quickly took out a small pill from his pocket to eat.

There were burn marks on his palm. The moment he swallowed the pill, they started to heal.

On her way back to school, Meng Xiaobai, who had just come out of Yu Moxiang's house in a huff, couldn't understand how there could be such a proud person in the world.

However, when she thought about Yu Moxiang's current identity, she could only bear with it and not curse him.

After returning to school, Meng Xiaobai began to take action.

So many things had happened in this period of time, and she did not know how the female classmate who sold the Thai Buddhist amulet on the sixth floor was doing.

Gripping the golden talisman in her hand tightly, Meng Xiaobai went up to the sixth floor alone.

Before she even reached the door of dormitory 606, she saw a group of men walking out of the room.

Just as Meng Xiaobai was feeling curious, she quickly noticed the huge box in the hands of the men.

The box was made of solid wood and there were no patterns on it. In their hands, it seemed to be very heavy.

Meng Xiaobai immediately retreated to the side, making way for them.

When the box passed by, Meng Xiaobai could clearly smell a stench.

As she walked towards dormitory 606, she realized that dormitory 606 was already empty. Even the bed frame was being torn apart by a group of electricians.

"Hello, where did everyone in this dormitory go?"

Meng Xiaobai's sudden question made the people working in the dormitory turn their heads.

"You're a classmate, right? You have to think twice before becoming friends with the people in this dormitory!"

One of the men tried to persuade Meng Xiaobai, but Meng Xiaobai was puzzled.

"I'm here to deliver something. Do you know where they went?"

The man scratched his head with a ferocious expression and replied, "I really don't know about this. I heard that there was a girl selling Ghost Child here. A few days ago, she was found lying on the grass downstairs with a charred body. She was no longer breathing."

Meng Xiaobai could not help but sigh in her heart. After thanking him, she quickly left the sixth floor.

Life was like a play. One could only rely on oneself to survive every scene. If one was not careful, one would end up on a cliff that was tens of thousands of feet high.

Meng Xiaobai felt a little sad. Although she knew that she deserved it, it was not to the point where she would end up in a hurry.

After leaving school, Meng Xiaobai reached out her hand and flagged down a taxi. In less than an hour, Meng Xiaobai appeared in the Bai Jia District once again.

After some hesitation, Meng Xiaobai finally pressed the doorbell of the European-style villa.

After a while, the person who opened the door was still Fong Mengru.

Meng Xiaobai frowned slightly, feeling extremely dissatisfied.

But at this moment, when Fong Mengru saw Meng Xiaobai again, she was also extremely dissatisfied.

"Why are you here again?"

"I'm here to find Yu Moxiang. I have something to ask him."

However, Fong Mengru blocked Meng Xiaobai outside the door. Her expression was extremely provocative as she said, "There are countless women who came to find him, and every one of them came as you said. So, are there any other tricks?"

"What tricks? I'm looking for Yu Moxiang. There's something I need to do."

It was obvious that Fong Mengru was extremely dissatisfied with Meng Xiaobai, who she had met twice in the same place.

"Let him in."

A cold voice sounded from inside the house. Seeing that, Meng Xiaobai pushed Fong Mengru to the side and took the lead to walk in.

When she saw Yu Moxiang sitting on the sofa, she went straight to the point and asked, "Did you kill her?"

Yu Moxiang closed the book in his hand and raised his head. His gaze fell on Meng Xiaobai.

"I don't know who you're talking about."

Meng Xiaobai took a step forward, her face full of anger. Her tone was somewhat aggressive.

"You know who I'm talking about. You killed her because she raised Ghost Child, but she didn't harm anyone!"

"How do you know she didn't harm anyone?"

Yu Moxiang's tone was still as cold as ever.

However, at this moment, Meng Xiaobai could still detect a trace of anger in his tone.

Meng Xiaobai had nothing to say. Yes, she didn't know if she had harmed anyone, but Yu Moxiang couldn't just kill someone like that.

"I don't know, but I know you killed someone. Do you believe that I'll call the police?"

After Meng Xiaobai finished speaking, the air suddenly froze.

Immediately, Yu Moxiang's cold and mocking voice sounded.

"It's up to you."

At this moment, Fong Mengru also laughed, but to Meng Xiaobai's ears, it sounded even more sarcastic than Yu Moxiang.

"Brother-in-law, where did you meet this little girl? Always making ignorant jokes?"

Fong Mengru walked in front of Meng Xiaobai and sat down on the sofa. Her figure was graceful, and could be considered excellent.

At this time, Yu Moxiang had already gone up the stairs. No matter how much Meng Xiaobai tried to stop him, all he could do was slam the door behind him.

"You probably don't know how powerful the Buddhist amulet is to people, do you?"

Meng Xiaobai was stunned when Fong Mengru suddenly opened her mouth and shook her head in a daze.

"What harm?"

"Anyone who wears it is like opening a door to a mischievous ghost from the next world. Being haunted by a ghost is not easy to get rid of."

As Fong Mengru spoke, she looked at Meng Xiaobai provocatively.
