Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser - Chapter 1597
1597 Infighting
As the taxi drove away, Yuan Yuan’s eyes were still fixed on Xia Mingcheng at the entrance of the villa. Unfortunately, Xia Mingcheng didn’t stay for long after she got into the car. He immediately turned around and went inside. Yuan Yuan stared in the rearview mirror indignantly.
Mingcheng had yet to forget the woman he loved, so Yuan Yuan couldn’t expose herself yet. She knew that once she revealed her feelings for him, Mingcheng would definitely do everything he could to stay away from her. Thinking this, Yuan Yuan was indignant and jealous. She was indignant that Xia Mingcheng still didn’t like her, and even more jealous that after so long, Yan Liling was still in Mingcheng’s heart.
It wasn’t long before Yuan Yuan’s phone rang in her bag. She picked up the call and heard Huang Chong’s familiar and terrified voice. “Sister Yuan, can you come over? We feel that something’s wrong. Sister Yuan, can you come over now?”
Yuan Yuan was about to agree, when she received another call halfway. When she saw that it was a rich wife who had a good relationship with Mother Xia, she immediately changed her mind and said, “Huang Chong, I’m busy now with something urgent. Can I call you back later?”
!!
Without waiting for Huang Chong to say anything else, Yuan Yuan hung up and immediately returned the rich lady’s call. When she heard that the woman wanted her to go over and help read her physiognomy tonight, Yuan Yuan smiled and agreed without hesitation.
Three minutes later, she called Huang Chong again. This time, she found an excuse and said that she had something urgent to attend to tonight and didn’t have time to go over. Huang Chong pleaded in fear and worry. Yuan Yuan didn’t take this matter to heart and repeatedly said that she really had something on and couldn’t go over tonight. She also mentioned that she hadn’t foreseen anything, so she told them not to worry, and said that she would go and find them tomorrow.
In the end, Huang Chong had no choice but to hang up obediently.
After he hung up, Yi Junzhong, Li Xiaoyan and Jiang Mingguang didn’t need to ask to know what Yuan Yuan had said!
The four of them frowned deeply. Ever since something happened to Guobin this morning, they had already agreed to stay together. If anything happened, they could take care of each other.
As for Yuan Yuan and Chai Qing, the four of them originally planned to invite them to stay together, but after Chai Qing latched onto Yuan Yuan, the two of them had the best relationship. Chai Qing didn’t hesitate to refuse to stay with them, and moved in with Yuan Yuan instead.
As for Yuan Yuan, she said that she wasn’t used to living with everyone and was usually busy, so she declined to stay with them.
The more Yi Junzhong, Li Xiaoyan and Jiang Mingguang thought about Yuan Yuan, the more unreliable they felt she was. After Huang Chong hung up, they heard him stutter, “Sister Yuan said that she… has something urgent on, and will come over tomorrow!”
Huang Chong didn’t think much of it. After all, whether they lived or died now depended on Sister Yuan. Huang Chong didn’t dare offend her too much. He could only suppress his resentment and didn’t dare badmouth her.
Jiang Mingguang, on the other hand, sneered. “What urgent thing? Could it be that our lives are nothing compared with her urgent matter?”
Jiang Mingguang’s relationship with Yuan Yuan had always been average, but he now had to rely on Yuan Yuan to save his life. In addition, Yuan Yuan did have some skills. Jiang Mingguang had tolerated it before, but after listening to the excuse Huang Chong gave, he really couldn’t take it anymore.
He was straightforward and smart. In addition, he could see through a woman like Yuan Yuan. Just a few days ago, this woman had been spending her time reading the physiognomies of rich wives. From her actions, he could tell what kind of person she was.
This so-called urgent matter was very likely some rich lady requesting her to read her physiognomy. Jiang Mingguang couldn’t take it anymore and suddenly said, “I’m going to find Yang Ji and Wang Jinyang. Are you coming?”
To be honest, Jiang Mingguang was very uneasy. He was afraid that something would happen to someone in their group. If Yuan Yuan was suddenly offered benefits, this woman would most likely give up their lives for those benefits.
They only had this one life. In addition, Liling, Guobin and Lin Dong’s deaths had been tragic and terrifying. Just thinking about how the three of them had been skinned and died tragically, Jiang Mingguang really couldn’t sit still. His scalp turned numb and his heart was filled with fear.
Jiang Mingguang was a man of action, and immediately made a decision.
As soon as Jiang Mingguang made his decision, Li Xiaoyan echoed him.
Yi Junzhong was also a decisive person. After thinking about Yuan Yuan’s actions, he was also very uneasy. Even if Yuan Yuan did have some skills, she didn’t care much about their lives. They should find another way out first.
Compared with Yi Junzhong and Li Xiaoyan, who agreed with Jiang Mingguang’s suggestion, Huang Chong demurred. “Sister Yuan already said that young lady definitely isn’t someone capable. She’s most likely a swindler. How can she help us? As for Sister Yuan, she also said just now that she didn’t foresee anything, and she didn’t come because she knew that we would be fine. If something really happens to us, Sister Yuan will definitely help! Besides, we now know someone as capable as Sister Yuan. It won’t be good to offend her! After all, our relationship with her isn’t that good!”
If it were before, Yi Junzhong and Jiang Mingguang might have considered Huang Chong’s words. Now that they thought about it, however, Yuan Yuan did have some skills, but Liling, Lin Dong and Guobin were still dead. What did that mean?
That meant that although Yuan Yuan was somewhat capable, she didn’t have many tricks up her sleeve, and couldn’t save them at all. In that case, there was nothing wrong with finding another way out.
Li Xiaoyan couldn’t agree more. She had a better relationship with Liling and had always had a bit of an iffy relationship with Yuan Yuan. She had always felt that Yuan Yuan had impure intentions in getting close to Liling, but she never had any evidence, and could only warn Liling every now and then. There were a few times when Yuan Yuan heard her, so their relationship had never been good.
Ever since this happened to them, Yuan Yuan had looked at her with gloating and disdain. Li Xiaoyan actually felt quite depressed. Occasionally, she regretted offending Yuan Yuan back then.
But no matter how much she regretted offending her, there was no turning back time.
Moreover, she felt that if something happened to her, Yuan Yuan might not be willing to save her, and might just be half-hearted about it. Thinking this, Li Xiaoyan was very uneasy, and felt dazed and alarmed. In that case, she might as well take a chance. Li Xiaoyan said to Jiang Mingguang, “Brother Jiang, I’ll go with you to find Yang Ji and Wang Jinyang.”
