My Tenant is a Female Ghost
Bai Zhuo had already reloaded his "bullet," preparing to engage in a fierce battle with Zhang Ni for three hundred rounds, but his rhythm was disrupted by a phone call from Yang Liu. Bai Zhuo was startled, and his sturdy resolve immediately softened. He ignored the sticky liquid, hastily adjusted his pants, and pushed Zhang Ni aside to answer the call.
"Hello... hello?"
"Hey, Bai, where are you?"
Bai Zhuo opened the car door and got out, responding nervously, "Me? I'm on my way home. What's up?"
"Oh... why are you stuttering? What are you doing?"
"I'm just... mind your own business. Are you home already?"
"Not yet, I'm driving... My dad wants to see you. Come to my house at twelve-thirty sharp today. Don't be late."
"Huh? Your dad wants to see me?" Bai Zhuo felt troubled. "Isn't there something he could say over the phone?"
"Come on, are you coming or not?" Yang Liu asked coldly.
Having just done something shameful with Zhang Ni, Bai Zhuo felt like a cat caught in an affair, guilty and anxious. "Sure, I'll definitely come. I'll be there on time. After all, I'm your boyfriend, right? Hahaha... Don't worry, I'll be there!"
"Okay, don't forget your manners," Yang Liu added before hanging up.
Zhang Ni straightened her clothes and opened the car window, asking, "Hey, are we still going to continue?"
Bai Zhuo hurriedly declined, "Ah? No, no. You should head back! I'm just going for a walk." He glanced at the time; it was already eleven-thirty. Zhang Ni huffed in annoyance, "Seriously? You got your fun and now you're leaving me hanging? That's really irresponsible of you!"
"I'm sorry! You... figure it out yourself! I have things to do; I can't stay." With that, Bai Zhuo turned and ran off. "Damn it!" Zhang Ni muttered under her breath as she watched him leave before closing the car window. The car started moving again but stopped shortly after. Inside the car, Zhang Ni felt an overwhelming heat coursing through her body. Her hands roamed over herself as she let out moans that mixed pain with pleasure. Eventually, she slipped her hand beneath her skirt. She raised her legs high against the steering wheel, and the sound of trickling water filled the car. A few minutes later, muffled groans escaped her lips as she flushed red and adjusted her skirt before pulling out her phone to make a call.
"Hello."
"Hello, is this Mr. Lin? It's best if you don't call me unless it's important."
"Today I ran into someone with the last name Bai at the airport, and I followed your instructions. I... I think your method didn't work." Zhang Ni said.
"It didn't work? How could a young man resist that overpowering perfume?"
"No, he couldn't resist; at least he lost control once in my car... It's just that I couldn't get him hooked. I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, please give me another chance!"
There was silence on the other end for a moment. "So, has his little bit of animosity towards you disappeared?"
"I can assure you of that. Although he doesn't like me, he definitely doesn't hate me anymore," Zhang Ni replied confidently.
"Well, you've done well in this matter. Don't rush it; being too eager might make him wary. Take your time with this; I'm not in a hurry."
"Okay, Mr. Lin, then... could you please help my brother first? My parents are really anxious; they’re in tears hearing about the life sentence. I know my brother is a scoundrel, but he is still my brother, Mr. Lin, please..."
"You think you have the right to negotiate with me?" The voice on the other end turned cold, making Zhang Ni apologize repeatedly. "Ah, Mr. Lin, I'm sorry! Please don’t be angry; I just asked without any other intentions!"
"Alright, you can rest assured about this matter. When you go back, your family will receive a notification that your brother's life sentence will be reduced to ten years. As long as things go well, he will be released without further issues, and you'll also receive a generous reward. Remember, the quickest way to please a man like him is to get into bed with him. You handle this yourself." Mr. Lin paused for a moment before adding, "And if he finds out about my existence, well, let's just say you won't need to live in this world anymore. At least in Huaxia, crushing you would be as easy as squashing an ant."
Beep beep beep...
The call ended abruptly, leaving Zhang Ni trembling at Mr. Lin's words. She seemed to deeply understand the terrifying nature of Mr. Lin. After taking several deep breaths to calm herself down, she started her car and drove away.
Bai Zhuo was walking along the road; it was still over ten kilometers away from the city center. Walking back would be exhausting, especially with the dampness and discomfort in his underwear—it was unbearable. He took out his phone and called Huang Jiangliu.
The call was answered by his secretary, Liu Yun.
"Mr. Bai?"
"Ah, it's you, Liu Yun. It's nothing serious; just arrange for someone to come pick me up at the airport road."
"Okay, I understand. They'll be there in twenty minutes."
Bai Zhuo hung up the phone and sat quietly waiting nearby.
Huang Jiangliu put down the documents in his hand and asked, "Liu, who was that?"
"Oh, it was Mr. Bai. He's having someone pick him up at the airport road."
"Mr. Bai?" Huang Jiangliu chuckled. "I almost forgot that Mr. Bai doesn't have a car yet."
Liu Yun asked, "Um, Huang Dong, do you need me to go pick him up?" But Huang Jiangliu's response only elevated Liu Yun's impression of Bai Zhuo further. Huang Jiangliu said, "You and Mr. Bai are about the same age and have better taste than I do. Why don't you buy a car for Mr. Bai? Since you're free anyway, I'll go pick him up myself."
Liu Yun suppressed her shock and asked, "Huang Dong, buying a car is fine, but... what price range are we talking about?"
"What price range? Just handle it as you see fit, but make sure it's not worse than my car."
"..." Huang Jiangliu's Audi looked understated but was worth at least six or seven hundred thousand. He didn't even blink as he casually mentioned such a large sum of money. Who exactly was Bai Zhuo? Liu Yun's breath quickened, and it took her a while to calm down before responding, "Understood, Huang Dong." Little did she know that Bai Zhuo and Huang Jiangliu were acquainted; if it weren't for Bai Zhuo back then, Huang Jiangliu and his wife would have long been dead. At least in his heart, Huang Jiangliu's life was tied to Bai Zhuo's.
Waiting felt like an eternity, especially with a sticky chill between his legs. At that moment, Bai Zhuo was particularly anxious and somewhat puzzled. He mused to himself: Usually, Su Meiniang tempts me in every way; this vixen is so much prettier than Zhang Ni—how can I usually resist her? Why am I so impulsive today? Ah... what a sin... As they say, "Before indulging in lust like a demon, after indulging be as holy as a Buddha," that's exactly my state of mind right now.
Lost in these thoughts, he didn't notice when an Audi slowly pulled up beside him.
“Mr. Bai, get in the car!”
Bai Zhuo snapped back to reality and asked as he got in, “Oh? Huang Boss, why did you come personally?”
“Haha, I had nothing to do anyway, so I thought I’d come over. Where are you headed, Mr. Bai?” Huang Jiangliu inquired.
“To Liangye Villa Area,” Bai Zhuo replied.
“Oh? To my place?” Huang Jiangliu said with a laugh. “Haha, that works out perfectly; it’s mealtime. Come over for dinner!”
Bai Zhuo shook his head. “No, I’m going to meet someone.”
Huang Jiangliu curiously asked, “Oh? Meet someone? Who is it? Would it be convenient for me to accompany you?”
Bai Zhuo thought for a moment; he was going to meet his in-laws but shook his head. “Let’s skip that. Just drop me off… By the way, where are your wife and kids? I haven’t heard you mention them lately.”
“Oh, after the last incident, I felt that Ningcheng isn’t very safe right now. I’ve already sent my wife and kids abroad.”
Bai Zhuo nodded in understanding and took out a handwritten notebook from his pocket. It was a self-made compilation of notes. He set a few pages aside and said, “Your son Junhao has the Yin-Yang Eye; he’s a good candidate to become a Yin-Yang Master. My master suggested that Junhao should take me as his teacher. However, the final decision rests with you and Junhao. This book is my handwritten copy; it contains some rare knowledge and important points for Yin-Yang Masters. Please send it to Junhao first; even if he doesn’t become my disciple, it will still benefit him with his Yin-Yang Eye.”
Huang Jiangliu felt delighted. “Ah, thank you, Mr. Bai! I’m thrilled that you would take my son Junhao as your disciple; how could I refuse? I believe Junhao also wishes to become an outstanding Yin-Yang Master. Speaking of which, I used to think Junhao was a bit odd—often distracted and looking elsewhere, and he would say some creepy things… Turns out he has the Yin-Yang Eye… Liya and I misunderstood him.”
“Indeed. Also, I heard Zhu Hui went bankrupt, and your Wanbao Group took over Radiant Group? How is the company operating these days?”
“It’s gradually getting back on track. We’ve managed to take the lion's share of this big cake—seventy percent for ourselves while the remaining thirty percent is scattered around. Following your instructions, I've made some adjustments to consolidate these benefits into the Yang Family… But I must admit, that Yang Girl is quite impressive,” Huang Jiangliu remarked.
“Yang Girl? Yang Liu?”
"Well, I've seen this girl a few times. As the saying goes, the business world is like a battlefield; the competition in business is no less fierce than the sword fights in the underworld! Yet, despite that, this Yang Girl has managed to push her 'Sunshine Electric' into the top hundred of Ningcheng all on her own, without relying on her parents' influence, and she's still a student! Just based on that, she might turn out to be as capable as her father in the future!"
Hiss! Looking at Yang Liu's delicate and gentle demeanor, she surprisingly turns out to be a strong woman at heart?
Bai Zhuo felt somewhat astonished and curious, asking, "Boss Huang, what do you think of her?"
Huang Jiangliu knew that Bai Zhuo was acquainted with Yang Liu. After pondering for a moment, he replied candidly, "This girl has plenty of ambition but lacks experience. Some things she does aren't quite perfect; it could be due to her youth and inexperience—she's too eager for success. If a strong competitor deliberately targets her company, it won't take long before this sapling falls. Moreover, most of her family's influence is abroad; as they say, a strong dragon cannot overpower a local snake. In my opinion, she should keep a low profile for now and gradually digest that small piece of the pie. Otherwise, all her hard work could go to waste."
Upon hearing Huang Jiangliu's words, Bai Zhuo suddenly felt like he didn't know Yang Liu as well as he thought. He never expected she had such a side to her.
Bai Zhuo recalled something and asked, "By the way, do you know Cao Yu?"
"Cao Yu?" Huang Jiangliu searched his mind for the name, feeling it was familiar but unable to recall where he had heard it.
Bai Zhuo prompted him, "I heard from someone that she seems to be some kind of president in pharmaceuticals..."
As soon as Huang Jiangliu heard this, he suddenly realized, "Oh! I remember now; she's the president of Yuxuan Pharmaceutical, Cao Lengleng?"
"Cao Lengleng?" Bai Zhuo asked curiously.
"Oh~ Haha, sorry..." Huang Jiangliu chuckled a few times. "Her name is Cao Yu; Cao Lengleng is her nickname because she's really cold. People in our circle privately call her that. In my opinion, her personality really isn't suited for being a president; however, as a woman, she can definitely be considered a Cold Beauty."
After hearing this, Bai Zhuo couldn't help but recall his encounter with her in Yun Province. A black belt in Taekwondo? The black underwear was about right; she did have a pretty face but was just too aloof.
Huang Jiangliu curiously asked, "So, Mr. Bai, do you know her?"
"Oh, it's just an acquaintance; doesn't she have a husband?"
"Husband?" Huang Jiangliu said, "No, she has always been single and I've never heard of her having any rumors with anyone. As a woman, especially one standing at the center of attention, I actually admire her for that."
"Oh, fine, it doesn't really matter to me," Bai Zhuo shrugged indifferently.
Huang Jiangliu smiled, wanting to tease a bit more, but suddenly thought of the director of Good Baby Orphanage, Ouyang Shirei. Knowing that Bai Zhuo's favorite person was Ouyang Shirei, he decided to stop talking about Cao Yu. After all, if it weren't for a call from Ouyang Shirei back then, could Huang Jiangliu still be alive today?
The journey was uneventful, and half an hour later, the two arrived at Liangye Villa Area. Huang Jiangliu invited Bai Zhuo to dinner that evening, but Bai Zhuo wasn't clear about the situation with Yang Liu and didn't agree.
He arrived at Yang Liu's doorstep, feeling a bit dazed as he revisited the place. Yang Liu's home had been in disarray due to the Taotie Ghost incident, nearly reduced to rubble. Now, looking at it, it seemed as if nothing had ever happened—one couldn't help but marvel at how good it is to have money.
"What are you doing standing here?" Suddenly, a voice from behind startled Bai Zhuo; it was Yang Liu's father. Yang's Father glanced at Huang Jiangliu's car and asked, "Is that person... Huang Jiangliu?"
"Ah, hello, Uncle..."
Yang's Father maintained his perpetually serious expression and asked again, "What is your relationship with Huang Jiangliu?"
"Oh, he... he's my uncle."
Yang's Father's eyes widened as he coldly replied, "You're lying! What kind of uncle bows and scrapes to his nephew? Do you think I can't see through that?" (To be continued.)
