Liu Cheng took out a photo of the watch and handed it over. “Look, this watch is so beautiful. What a pity. I can only give it to you next time.”
The watch sparkled. There was even a price labeled below. This price made Zhou Yue’s eyes flash. If he got this money, he would definitely be able to live a carefree life for a period of time. He would no longer have to coax Liu Cheng, this fool.
Zhou Yue snorted. “Aren’t you going to bring me back to get it? Otherwise, I’ll break up with you.”
He had never been to the Liu family’s villa before! There must be many valuable things there. When the time came, he would say a few more words and Liu Chen would willingly hand them over.
As for Liu Cheng’s mother, he did not take her to heart at all. In his impression, Liu Cheng had a lot of complaints about her mother. The relationship between the two of them was not very deep. He did not think that Liu Cheng would fall out with him because of her mother.
“Alright, I’ll bring you back now.” Liu Cheng’s eyes were filled with hatred. She took a deep breath before stepping on the accelerator.
“Vroom!” The engine roared to life, and the sports car sped off, incredibly fast.
Zhou Yue sat in the pa.s.senger seat in enjoyment. Not long after, the two of them arrived at the Liu family’s house. If not for Liu Chen insisting on going back to get her watch, Zhou Yue would have wanted to take a spin for a while.
After getting out of the car, Zhou Yue looked around Liu’s villa with great interest. He suddenly realized that he should squeeze Liu Cheng for more money. The Liu family was really wealthy.
When he walked into the living room, he turned around and realized that Liu Cheng was gone. Then, he put on a sack and was tied up.
“Ow ow ow…” Zhou Yue felt like his whole body was going to fall apart from the beating. Especially his lower body, which was constantly being kicked as if on purpose.
Hearing Zhou Yue scream so miserably, Liu Cheng was so angry that she trembled and fell onto the sofa as if she had lost all her energy. “d.a.m.ned fella. Fortunately, we caught him and brought him back.”
After hitting him for more than half an hour, Zhou Yue was finally tied up. When Zhou Yue saw the light again, he saw Liu Cheng and the others sitting on the sofa. There were bodyguards in black around them, and the atmosphere was solemn and oppressive.
He realized that he had fallen into a trap. There was no watch at all. It was all to coax him over.
“Pfft, Liu Chen! How dare you treat me like this?” Zhou Yue looked at Liu Chen with a sinister gaze.
“Hah!” Meng Xi’s eyes were sharp. She got up from the sofa and slapped him.
“Slap!” Zhou Yue’s face tilted from the slap and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Meng Xi said angrily, “How dare you lie to my sister? Look at your stupid face. You’re not even worthy of carrying her shoes. I advise you to think about your future situation carefully. Otherwise…” Her eyes were filled with threat.
Zhou Yue was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat. He seemed to see killing intent in this woman’s eyes.
“Tell me, where did you get the prayer beads?” Yu Su asked Zhou Yue calmly.
Zhou Yue shut his mouth tightly and looked at the people around him. He straightened his neck and said, “Kill me. I won’t say anything.”
In any case, it was a lawful society. He did not believe that these people would really dare to do anything to him. After letting him go, he would definitely take revenge.
Yu Su seemed to have seen through his thoughts and sneered. She threw a talisman in his direction and it gently stuck onto Zhou Yue.
At this moment, Zhou Yue’s body felt as if it had been run over by a car. There wasn’t any part of his body that didn’t hurt. After the squeezing pain pa.s.sed, he felt as if the wounds on his body had been soaked in salt. It was painful and numb. In just a few minutes, he felt like he had been fished out of water. His entire body was drenched in sweat.
“Ahhhh…” The man’s hoa.r.s.e voice sounded in the living room. “I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you!” He really couldn’t take it anymore.
Yu Su reached out and said to the talisman, “Stop! You can speak now.”
Zhou Yue lowered his eyes and moved his fingers. “That string of prayer beads is actually not mine. I accidentally obtained it at a night market.”
“Be more specific,” Yu Su said.
Zhou Yue continued, “That day, Liu Cheng’s mother took her away. I was indignant, so I went out for a walk. I didn’t expect to walk into a night market. The night market sells many strange things. This string of prayer beads was bought at the night market.”
He paused for a moment, as if he was recalling the situation at that time. “That person looked like a monk. He had a shaved head, but he was wearing a Daoist robe and looked like a sage. There were many other spiritual artifacts in the stall. By the way, I heard that someone called him Mindful Master.”
Mindful Master, Yu Su secretly remembered this name.
Liu Cheng asked excitedly, “What else! What else did you do?”
“Nothing else.” Zhou Yue thought for a moment and said.
“Did that person teach you to cast a curse?” Yu Su asked.
Zhou Yue seemed to have come to a realization. “Curse? So that’s a curse…”
