Chapter 97 Finally Some Meat Buns!
Ye Shaoyang nodded, “Not only that . Even if they are able to find that many kids, an average individual cannot create a Six Eyed Child . Someone without enough cultivation might not only fail to control it . Instead, the Six Eyed Child might even manage to kill them in return .
“That’s why there are no newly created Six Eyed Children nowadays . All Six Eyed Children are created during times of famine, where everyone is poor . At such times, the sorcerers could easily purchase children . A lot of these creatures have now either found new owners or have gone to the Underworld to avoid heavenly tribulation . They are basically non-existent in the mortal realm . Never thought I would encounter one today . ”
Xie Yuqing fell silent for a while . Then, she asked, “That female spirit mentioned something about Madam Chee and her servant? Could this Six Eyed Child be her servant? And it destroyed the female spirit because she knew something?”
“Maybe . ” Ye Shaoyang frowned, “In any case, I don’t think anyone would call a Six Eyed Child ‘Madam Chee . ’ But I do wonder what evil being has enough power to create and control a Six Eyed Child . ”
As he stated this, Ye Shaoyang suddenly realized a very serious problem . Maybe, this Madam Chee was more powerful than Feng Xinyu .
“That female spirit also said something about a Cheng Liu Village, a worksite, and a temple,” Ye Shaoyang said, “These are some clues that we can work on . Have you ever heard of this village?”
“No, I’ve never heard of it . Maybe I can check it right now . ” She took out her cell phone, opened Baidu maps, and typed in Cheng Liu Village . A quick search revealed something astonishing .
“The worksite that she mentioned is the Evergreen Villa . It’s an ongoing project of Star City Corp . I recently saw it on television; they say it will be the largest and most luxurious villa . ”
“Oh, the Boss is pretty rich huh,” Ye Shaoyang laughed . Then, he abruptly stopped and asked, “Wait, you said it’s a project of Star City Corp?”
“That’s right, Star City Corp, one of the big companies in Jiang Nan . The Boss is called Zhou Ming . ”
Ye Shaoyang nodded, “I know him, I’m also friends with his daughter . ”
Xie Yuqing suddenly remembered something, and she looked at him with disdain, “You don’t need to keep showing it off . ”
Ye Shaoyang chuckled and did not respond .
After they finished their talk, Xie Yuqing made some calls to her department and asked for some people to clean up the undead that Ye Shaoyang had defeated . They made arrangements to head to the worksite tomorrow . Then, both of them left and went back .
When he got back, he saw that Xiao Ma and Old Guo laid together on the same bed, where they hugged each other . A heavy scent of alcohol hung over them . Ye Shaoyang went to take a shower . After that, he laid on the bed and thought through what he had experienced today . He certainly did not plan to ignore this strange case . Who was Madam Chee? And how powerful was she?
Even though she might have more power than Feng Yuxin, Ye Shaoyang did not feel particularly worried . Only one matter made him sad—he did not get enough rest . A great and b.l.o.o.d.y battle might erupt soon . Ye Shaoyang sighed, as he thought about this matter . Suddenly, joy filled him, as he thought of Rui Lengyu, Didn’t she say I can call her If I have any problems? Maybe, I’ll wait till I gain some details . Then, I’ll call her .
Ye Shaoyang took out his phone and saw the time . He figured that Zhou Jingru might still be asleep, but in the end, he decided to make the call . Ye Shaoyang was very well mannered . When the call connected, Ye Shaoyang asked about her father"s condition . He still knew about these matters of basic courtesy .
Zhou Jinru said, “My father is fine . He went out yesterday for a business trip . It’s all thanks to you, big brother Shaoyang . Are you free tomorrow? I want to treat you to a meal . ”
“Let’s talk about the meal later . There’s something I want to ask you about . Is there a project called Evergreen Villa that your father’s company handles?”
“Yeah, you saw it on television? Do you want me to buy you a unit?” Zhou Jingru said it as though she was treating him to a meal .
Ye Shaoyang coughed a bit and replied, “I don’t think I can live in a place that luxurious . But I have something important to ask you . ”
Ye Shaoyang explained everything to her, and it shocked her greatly . Then, she said, “I’m just in charge of the general planning of the company and not that specific project . I’m not sure about the details of the project, but I can bring you to the site tomorrow . Should I come and fetch you?”
Ye Shaoyang thought for a bit and replied, “I’ll be going there with someone else . I’ll send you a message before I leave . ”
After the call, Ye Shaoyang went to sleep and dreamed about Rui Lengyu again… .
Good dreams did not last long . Ye Shaoyang was deep in his dreams when a loud bang erupted from nowhere and broke the silence of the room . Ye Shaoyang shot up and vaguely saw a woman who stood at the door . He quickly pulled the sheets and covered himself up .
Xie Yuqing asked in confusion, “What? Why are you so nervous?”
Now, Ye Shaoyang realized it was Xie Yuqing . He replied, “Nothing . . . you . . . how did you get in?”
“I have the keys to this apartment, so I can come in whenever I want . ”
“But you can’t just come in whenever you want, even if you have the keys . What if I was changing my clothes? I don’t want you to see my naked body . ”
Xie Yuqing giggled a bit, “Cut the c.r.a.p and get up . ”
After Ye Shaoyang brushed his teeth and was ready to go out, Old Guo and Xiao Ma woke up . Ye Shaoyang briefly recounted last night’s encounter to them . The words ‘Six Eyed Child’ shocked Old Guo, and he almost peed himself . Xiao Ma, on the other hand, seemed fearless, “Yet another battle . Little Ye, I’ll come with you . ”
“I’ll call you when I need you; there’s nothing for you today,” Ye Shaoyang did not want to bring so many people for this investigation .
Ye Shaoyang and Xie Yuqing boarded the car . Then, Xie Yuqing said, “Let’s go and have some big meat buns . ”
Ye Shaoyang’s mouth twitched, and he complained, “Pah, you’ve already said this line so many times . ”
“I’ll bring you there today . ”
Xie Yuqing started up the car, drove to the city area, and parked in front of a store . Ye Shaoyang looked up at the sign . Then, the sight of the words ‘Big Meat Buns’ stunned him . The place was decorated in an ancient manner and screens separated all the tables . The two of them went in and took a seat . Xie Yuqing ordered four buns and two cups of tea .
“How can you order only four buns? Such a stingy person,” Ye Shaoyang complained again .
Xie Yuqing smiled and did not reply . When the buns arrived, their size stunned Ye Shaoyang . The buns were enormous, and one was probably enough to fill up a person . With some effort, Ye Shaoyang picked up one of the buns . Then, he took a big bite into it . As the bun burst open up, warm juices flowed out . Ye Shaoyang felt very impressed, “The flavors are clean, yet robust . ”
Xie Yuqing laughed and said, “When have I ever lied to you? These buns are special because of their thin, soft outer layer, and overflowing juices . Once you’ve tried it, you’ll become addicted . ”
Ye Shaoyang nodded in agreement, “Indeed . I’ll come here with you more often . ”
Xie Yuqing was quite happy to hear that . She stopped chewing for a bit and revealed a very subtle smile .
