Chapter 165



165 Second Master Is On The Way Again

Gu Man slept on the sofa until dawn.

Seeing that she had almost recovered, she quickly washed up and meditated on the balcony for two hours.

After she finished meditating, the spiritual energy in her body was still very weak, but she was no longer that tired.

She was still thinking about how Zhen Rong had handled that matter last night. There were still some of that little ghosts’ auras on him that couldn’t be completely removed. That dirty thing might make a comeback.

Seeing that she was thinking further and further away, Gu Man shook her head to get rid of her worries. Zhen Rong should pray for himself.

Gu Man called Huang Jun. “Uncle, I’ll pick you up at home later. Have you packed everything you need?”

Huang Jun said happily, “It’s already packed. We’ll wait for you.”

“Okay.”

Gu Man changed into a T-shirt and jeans, put on a baseball cap, baked a few pieces of bread, packed them in a paper box, and left.

Gu Man planned to rent a car to go to town later, but just as she went downstairs, she realized that there was a black car parked there. Gu Man did not think about it and continued walking.

As soon as she walked past the car, someone shouted, “Gu Man.”

Gu Man turned around. It was Xiang Yin.

“Where are you going so early?” Xiang Yin asked as he held the open car door.

“I’m going out for a while,” Gu Man said calmly. Then, she asked curiously, “Are you going out so early too?”

Xiang Yin pressed his fist to his mouth and coughed unnaturally. “I’m going out too.”

He was too embarrassed to say it. Although he did have to go out, he was deliberately waiting here.

He had only wanted to try his luck, but he did not expect to really encounter her.

Gu Man nodded. “Then I’ll get going.”

“Where are you going? I can drive you if it’s on the way.”

“There’s no need. I’m going to somewhere very far and it’ll take a long time.” Gu Man rejected calmly.

“Can you tell me where you’re going?” Xiang Yin raised his eyebrows.

Gu Man felt that Xiang Yin was a little difficult to deal with today. She remembered that she had relied on Xiang Yin’s help to buy the house upstairs, so she explained, “I’m going to Hengshui Town to pick up my grandmother and uncle to stay.”

When Xiang Yin heard this, he knew that Hengshui Town was indeed not close. He pondered for a moment. “I’ll fetch you. I’m not in a hurry. It’s so early now, and there are few cars outside.”

Gu Man looked at the time. It was indeed still early, and it was Saturday. It should be difficult to find a car.

Besides, the taxi might not be willing to go to such a remote town.

Gu Man pursed her lips, not wanting to trouble Xiang Yin anymore. However, Xiang Yin had already opened the car door for her. “It’s fine. Let’s go.”

“This might take an entire morning. Is it really okay?” Gu Man was still worried.

“Just give me a piece of bread to eat,” Xiang Yin said with a smile.

Gu Man looked at the piece of bread in her hand and handed the box over. “Oh, then take it yourself.”

Xiang Yin took the paper box and pinched out a piece of bread. “Have some breakfast before we leave.”

Hence, the two of them leaned against the car and ate two pieces of bread each. Gu Man thought to herself that it was fortunate that she had just toasted two extra pieces. Otherwise, she would not have been able to eat anymore.

Gu Man realized that Xiang Yin seemed to be addicted to her breakfast.

After the bread was divided, Gu Man took out two bottles of yogurt from her backpack and handed one to Xiang Yin. Xiang Yin took it and drank it.

Gu Man turned her face slightly and saw Xiang Yin’s sharp side profile. At this moment, he was looking up slightly and drinking the yogurt from a bottle. Looking at his posture, it actually looked like he was drinking alcohol.

At this moment, Xiang Yin suddenly turned around and saw Gu Man peeking at him. He smiled and said, “Why? Can’t bear to part with your bottle of yogurt?”

Gu Man scolded herself in her heart. She had actually been seduced just now.

“Ha, how can that be?” Gu Man pretended to be calm, then quickly said, “Then let’s go.”

“Okay.” Gu Man’s panic made Xiang Yin feel especially happy.

On Saturday morning, there was half the traffic than usual. An hour later, Gu Man and Xiang Yin arrived at Hengshui Town.

“This town is quite lively.” Xiang Yin saw that half of the road in the town was occupied by goods and two cars side-by-side could barely pass.
