Chapter 4 Two Gus Bar

Xiaoxia woke up in shock.

It was a nightmare again, and it was coming to torture her again!

She was sweating all over, and wanted to lift the quilt and get out of bed to get a glass of water to thirst. But she didn't dare to leave the quilt, at least the warmth made her feel a little safe. The fluorescent meter on the table on the bedside table showed that the time was 2:40. The slight light of the needle was shaking, and the ticking sound made people feel as if something was approaching the bed.

This made Xiao Xia buried deeper in the quilt, and finally she shrank in, and could not hear anything except her heartbeat.

She shouldn't have rented this small house in the yin for cheap, so she couldn't even shine the sun. It was nothing before, but recently she couldn't fall asleep peacefully after taking on this case. Maybe she should get married or find a boyfriend to live together, so that she wouldn't be so scared. Although it was just a nightmare, the real feeling was not something that a timid person like her could bear.

Or it's just Wanli? But they are so familiar with each other. Thinking about lying on the same bed with such a person, I feel so embarrassed that I have goose bumps. No, I have to change someone else. Or - Ruan Zhan?

Ruan Zhan's name scared Xiaoxia, even surpassing the nightmare's shock.

Why do I think of him? She only met this person a few hours ago and had a bad impression. Could it be that she has residual consciousness because she had just seen him? This must be the case!

But can he really be spiritual?

Wanli would not lie to her, but she really didn't realize that he had this ability. Her intuition has always been accurate, and there was no reason to make a mistake this time. But what if it was wrong? What if he could really be spiritual? Then he could help her!

Why don’t you say a word to him after you find it?

I am always like this and always give up halfway when encountering things. If I talk to Ruan Zhan, he can help her if he can communicate with others. He can't and will not lose anything. It's better than having nowhere to ask for help after a nightmare.

She really had no choice. She had already done it to burn incense and worship Buddha, but the Buddha must be very busy, so she didn't care about her. She had to think of other ways, otherwise she would be nervous and she would be unhappy before the case was completed or the director came back and changed the case.

Otherwise, look for Wanli tomorrow to see if it is a psychological problem. If it doesn’t work, try Ruan Zhan again. Although it is not reliable, at least - let’s treat the dead horse as a living horse!

The next day, Xiaoxia didn't find Wanli. This even made her think that he was avoiding her, but then she remembered that every Tuesday was the day when Wanli fulfilled her duty as a guest and sat in a professor. So she had to stop work and went to the "Night Returning Man" bar.

It was only two o'clock in the afternoon when she arrived, and she saw Ruan Zhan opening the store from afar. His skin was healthy wheat-colored, and he was not as morbid and pale as animals that were hiding day and night.

"Can you go in now?" Xiao Xia asked, standing three meters away from Ruan Zhan.

"I just opened the door and it has not been officially opened yet - but - OK." Ruan Zhan made a call and frowned almost invisibly. He recognized the woman as a casual guest who came last night, but why didn't she say a word to him yesterday, but came so early today? I hope she just came to bother him or cause trouble.

Xiaoxia walked into the bar, and the store was empty because there was no one. Moreover, because the glass of the store was full of artistic glass, the afternoon sun could not shine inside at all. The whole space was dark and there was a huge gossip-shaped decoration made of transparent tubes on the wall facing her. She didn't see that last night, probably because of the lights, but now it was pitch black and can see clearly.

Ruan Zhan followed in for a long time, but Xiaoxia did not feel nervous when she stayed alone in the closed and empty space as usual, and she felt nervous, which made her feel that maybe her judgment yesterday was too hasty, and this man had some tricks.

"Where is your guy?"

"They are college students who work part-time. If you look for them, it will take after four o'clock in the afternoon."

"No, I won't look for them. But it seems that your place is closed in the middle of the night. Will this affect their studies?" Xiaoxia suddenly stopped, "I'm sorry, I asked questions, it's a professional habit, it's really annoying!" She saw that Ruan Zhan had walked to the bar and went there to find a seat to sit down, "My surname is Yue, Yue Xiaoxia, a lawyer from Changkong Law Firm."

Ruan Zhan was stunned for a moment. "I didn't cause trouble, did I?"

"No, it's not that." Xiao Xia shook her head in a hurry, "That's just my profession. My presentation today has nothing to do with the profession. I am - I am - I am - I am looking for you, there is something. Can it be?"

"Of course. But what do you want to drink first, Miss Yue?"

"What do you usually drink at this time?"

"It's a little early to drink, and most people will drink coffee."

"I don't like coffee, it's bitter! Give me soda, orange flavor, or mineral water is fine."

Ruan Zhan didn't say anything, just smiled, and handed her a glass of orange soda. This woman has the taste of a child and is easy to deal with.

"What's the matter with me?" he asked.

"That--Wanli, do you know? He said you are good friends, so--so he asked me to come to find you." Xiao Xia stammered, embarrassed to ask a stranger. It was all because Wanli was so weird that she refused to accompany her, which made her face the embarrassment alone. Now she had to just say. "I have trouble, and he said you have the ability to help me."

When Ruan Zhan heard Wanli's name, he knew that something was wrong and he was in big trouble!

Wanli and his friend have been with him for many years and are the only person in the world who knows his secret, but never leaked anything about him. But this time, although Wanli should know more than anyone else how much he doesn't like to mention his "abilities" and doesn't like to use it, why should he send someone to seek his help? Who is this female lawyer named Yue Xiaoxia from Wanli who can make him betray his oath? Or what is the unsolvable thing happening to her? What does this have to do with the faint yang fire on her body?

"I'm very happy to be able to help Miss Yue, but I'm afraid I'm powerless." Ruan Zhan had countless thoughts in his mind, but his face still had a harmless expression of smile. "Why don't you tell me what trouble you have to see if I can help you."

Xiao Xia hesitated for a moment, and then told Ruan Zhan about the inexplicable nightmare, strange hallucinations and feelings that had happened since taking over the case. She looked at his face, hoping to get a trace of information, but he had no expression on his face, his eyes were like a deep black pool, as if whatever you threw in would disappear immediately without a trace.

"Am I being evil?" she asked.

"Crash evil?" Ruan Zhan smiled disbelief, "Ms. Yue is a lawyer, so she should be very calm and logical. She will not believe these nonsense, right? In my opinion, it may be because of the pressure and has accepted some passive psychological hints. I am not a professional psychologist like Wanli, but I think you should not think too much, stay away from this matter and relax you will be fine."

"It would be great if I could, but unfortunately I can't let it go yet."

"Then - I'm afraid I can't do anything." Ruan Zhan said with a regretful tone, "You are Wanli's friend, that is, my friend. I really hope you can do something, but unfortunately I really can't."

"You don't want to help me!" Xiao Xia rushed out.

"No, I'm very willing, I hope it can! But - I don't know how Wanli told you, it's very likely that he is too exaggerated. I just read some books such as Feng Shui and Zhou Yi. I am purely amateurs and have no special abilities at all. Don't listen to him talking nonsense."

"Is it really impossible to help?"

"I'm sorry."

"Please help me!" Xiaoxia begged. In fact, with her impatient temper, she should have turned around and left long ago. Moreover, the more she talked to him, the more she felt that Wanli was right. He must have a way, but he just refused to help. She should not say a word to such a person without love, but the so-called "the situation is stronger than that", she had to whisper.

"sorry."

Seeing that he was still pretending to be innocent, Xiao Xia knew that nothing was useful.

"Okay, I've been here. Goodbye." She walked out angrily, deliberately not giving Ruan Zhan soda money. She thought that she had known that he had the most expensive bottle of wine, at least the mental loss could be compensated for. Such a person would not let him go, and he was really unwilling to accept it if he hadn't given him some blood.

Ruan Zhan watched Xiaoxia leave without any guilt. This lady has provoked evil and filth. Whether it can be broken or not is her luck, what does it have to do with him? His first principle in life is to never care about anyone’s affairs and just keep it alone quietly.
