Chapter 8 The God of Gamblers Chapter 7 The Things You Can't Avoid

Wanli opened the door and saw Ruan Zhan sitting cross-legged on the bed with his eyes closed, his face pale, sweating profusely, his brows frowned, and he looked like he could hang out at any time, and he sighed slightly. Xiaoxia has been running away for a hundred days, and they still can't find her.

This dead girl has such a fierce temper, and she doesn't give anyone else or a chance to buffer herself. But on the other hand, it may be only such a woman who loves and hates can be so thorough, persistent and pure!

I have known Xiao Xia for many years, and I have never seen her so angry or desperate. I actually put a knife on my neck, which scared no one of the three of them to get close to her. I wanted to talk to her after she calmed down, but she was so determined that she ran without a trace overnight. When she left, she didn't even bring her clothes to change. She only brought her backpack, probably her wallet, ID card and withdrawal card, but these certainly couldn't keep her for a long time.

She also took away the Five Elements Forbidden Magic Talisman that Bao Datong drew for her.

When he learned about this situation, he understood that she would not come back in a short time, and even wanted to leave forever! No one knew Xiao Xia better than him. At first, she might feel humiliated and painful by being despised and teased by her most beloved person. But when she calmed down, with her kind and innocent personality, she would definitely forgive Ruan Zhan for everything she did, but she would still not come back and would probably hide deeper. He once laughed at her as a little ostrich, and would hide when she encountered fear and unable to face. Now it seems that he was not wrong. She really hid without seeing anyone.

Her disappearance made the three of them go all out. First, they went to the office, but Director Pan was furious and sent Xiao Xia's resignation letter to Wanli, telling him: I asked that girl to come back to me, but I wouldn't accept her resignation! What if I say in person, what's the point of writing these few words? I'm so irresponsible, I'll leave as soon as I say! Let her come back immediately!

Director Pan's words made Wan Li know that he really loved this careless and generous junior, not only because she was her own student, but she favored her!

Because he could not get Xiao Xia's information from the office, he pretended to be on a business trip and went to her home. Xiao Xia's parents warmly received him and entrusted him to take care of their daughter who had been away for many years. Xiao Xia's mother always looked at him, as if her mother-in-law was like a son-in-law. But he was not happy. Fortunately, he found out that Xiao Xia had called back without any trace and knew that she was still safe and healthy at the moment, so he had at least let go of her heart.

He could not tell Xiaoxia's parents about her disappearance because he understood that she loved her family very much and would definitely not want her family to get involved in this matter. So although she was not by his side now, he still carefully kept the secret for her.

They have searched and inquired about the places she might go to, and the occasions that may appear, but they can't find any clues. At this point, he has no choice but to do anything, because although Xiao Xia is careless, she is a smart person after all. If she wants to hide, they can't find him.

But Ruan Zhan refused to give up and waited with peace of mind because he had no time, and there was less than half a year left before his misfortune. He wanted to see her before he died, look at her, so that she would no longer be angry with him. So he searched like crazy, and threw the entire store to Bao Datong. He frequently used space-time distortion and telepathy, regardless of his body, and he was completely haggard.

This is the case in the world. The more beautiful things are, the more hurt people the most. Xiao Xia and Ruan Zhan love each other too much, so they hurt each other unintentionally. Ruan Zhan hurt Xiao Xia's heart, and Xiao Xia's departure almost killed Ruan Zhan.

Sometimes he wondered whether Ruan Zhan’s difficulty in the three years was because of love? This is possible. How many heroes and heroes died on the word “love”, let alone Ruan Zhan, an ordinary person who closed his heart but was suddenly knocked open by Xiao Xia recklessly?! He was originally a person who would not love easily, but could not be taken back if he loved it!

"Azhan, she intends to isolate the telepathy from you. It is useless to use your magic power like this!" Wanli said helplessly, "If you do this, even if she comes back, you will die! At that time, she will die of sadness."

Ruan Zhan's heart trembled when he heard Wanli's words and opened his eyes, but he didn't say anything. Wanli didn't understand. Every night, he could sense Xiaoxia's heart. Although he couldn't tell where she was, he knew that she was missing him. When he thought of her staying alone in a small hotel where no one knew, his heart was twisted. I wonder if she had eaten, was sick, and was crying?

This is all his fault! Why didn’t he resist or suppress his feelings when he was in Hongqing Town? He made a mistake and then used the wrong method to correct the situation that he could not control now. If he hated him, he could leave. He didn’t want to be with her, and he could even endure not seeing her. As long as he knew she was safe and happy, he would have no regrets. Now that she was leaving alone, how could he feel at ease?!

Last night, he sensed her fear, which made him anxious. He tried to follow the induction and find her place while trying to track the induction, but it was still futile because she refused to echo him. Although she was safe later, she could not make him feel at ease.

"We must find her as soon as possible! She is a single woman, so dangerous." Ruan Zhan stood up with the wall.

Wanli looked at him and said 'um'. In fact, they said this sentence every day. It has been a hundred days since they said it, but it still has no result. Look at Ruan Zhan's appearance. If he really can't survive the death disaster of his fate, how can he let Xiao Xia go? What should we do then? The human and ghost relationship has not yet ended?

No, he must find a way to help them, even if he saves his life!

"Or if you don't chase it so tightly, she will relax her guard." Wanli suddenly had an idea, "She must feel that it is difficult for her to face you, so once you sense telepathy with her, she will avoid it. But if you give up this method, with her impatient personality, you may relax. If you think of a way, you may find her position in a moment."

Ruan Zhan was stunned and nodded, "You are right, I didn't expect this. She ran away almost as soon as she met my call, so I couldn't sense the things around her, and of course I couldn't find her place."

"After, let's treat the dead horse as a living horse. We have thought about all kinds of ways, and this one is the only one. This dead girl is so old that she still runs away from home. When I come back to her, I want to save her some blood. In this way, she will run away next time, your bird tracking technique will be useful. It is much better than finding randomly like a headless fly." Wanli said, looking at Ruan Zhan suspiciously, "But can you help but not miss her?"

"I'll force myself."

"Yes, he will force himself the most." Wanli thought, "It has been like this since childhood, always forcing himself. Who lives as tired and struggling as him?"

…………………………

After several nights, Xiao Xia suddenly couldn't feel the faint longing. Once that telepathy was cut off, her heart would be broken.

Time is indeed a good medicine. He has given up on her and no longer looked for her! Isn’t this exactly what she hopes? But why does her heart hurt so much? Is she still looking forward to his love? So stupid! He has given up on her long ago. From the moment he eliminated her memory, he didn’t want to have anything to do with her!

Even though I know this result, I still look forward to something in my heart. It seems that women are all greedy! How ridiculous!

Xiao Xia was lying on the bed, trying to laugh at herself, but she burst into tears, feeling so sad that she didn't even have the strength to beat. She didn't notice that no one could automatically open a gap that was wide without closing the long floor-to-ceiling window.

Since they hit the ghost that day, they stayed in that city for three more days, and then started to walk to another place like a parade. When they were still in that city, because they had changed hotels, the hanged ghost had never come to cause trouble for her.

As usual, He Fugui slept during the day and went to inspect the "investment projects" at night. She was idle during the day, savoring the pain in her heart. She also helped He Fugui do some chores and prepared a legal document.

The document was a mine development contract for Tietou Mountain in Jinshi Town, meaning that after conducting business inspections across the country and abroad, He Fugui will return to his hometown to invest and develop. As for what rare minerals Tietou Mountain, which has not been discovered for so many years, what decisions He Fugui will make to invest, and how the development method of this mountain is, Xiao Xia doesn't know.

The reason why he did not sign a contract, nor did he conduct a series of prescribed procedures such as application, approval, etc. was that the small place was not very strict in implementing laws and regulations, and on the other hand, it might be that He Fugui did not have so much money at that time. But these days, Xiao Xia had not seen him do anything serious, so why did he raise the funds? And even if the funds were in place, he did not go back immediately, but on the other hand, he was in a hurry to sign the contract. The whole thing was weird and unreasonable.

However, Xiaoxia was not very interested in this, but she vaguely felt that He Fugui must be doing something illegal. She is now in love and is unable to meddle in other people's business. As long as she survives this week, gets a month's work period, and then leaves with her salary!

Of course, she may report it anonymously. If He Fugui has any problems, there will naturally be a government agency to investigate him, so she doesn’t need to worry about it!

A cool breeze blew up, which made Xiaoxia feel excited. When she got up and looked, she found that the floor-to-ceiling window was open. She was a little confused. She remembered that it seemed that the window was closed. It was almost November now. They are currently in the central region and it was already cold at night. How could they sleep with the window open?

After thinking for a while, she turned on the desk lamp and walked to the window.

She was very careful, but she was not wary of another gust of wind rushing out of the window, as if someone was pushing her outside to prevent her from closing the window. She subconsciously exerted force. Although the window was closed, the white window screen was blown up, and when it fell, it wrapped around her neck as if it was alive.

She was startled and reached out to pull it, but the speed of the window screen was faster than her. She rolled two rolls around her neck, lifted it upwards, and hung Xiao Xia up!

The suffocation immediately came, and she felt the feeling of being hanged in an instant. She tried her best to lift her hands, but she couldn't do it at all. In her ear, a woman's gloomy laughter came, "Bitch! Let you taste the pain I suffered! You used magic to hurt me!"

Xiao Xia couldn't speak, and the needle-like pain spread from her lungs that could not breathe all over her body. But she could see a shadow hanging on the chandelier in the middle of the room, shaking, strangling her neck with her long hair. It was the female ghost who was tangling her. Unexpectedly, she chased her here after a few days of silence. However, Xiao Xia's pain lasted for only a few seconds, and she felt a very warm hotline on the back of her neck rushing towards her neck, burning the window screen suddenly loosened, and she fell from the air!

The hanged ghost didn't expect Xiao Xia to get out of trouble, so he let out a shrill scream in anger and rushed over to pinch Xiao Xia's neck, but as soon as the dry claws touched Xiao Xia's skin, they were immediately bounced away by a ball of yellow light.

Xiao Xia didn't have time to regulate her breathing, so she raised the talisman that had been holding in the palm of her hand, and a fire technique hit her! She lacked magic power, but the hanged ghost was not prepared at all and was close to her, so she was forced into the corner of the wall by the fire technique. Xiao Xia had a sudden inspiration and hurriedly cast another fire technique, igniting a weak but temporarily immortal flame on the wall above the woman's head, trapping her there!

"Let me go, you bitch!" she called.

"Shut up! If you want many people to break in and let the yang energy cook you, just applaud!" Xiao Xia stroked her neck, and successfully defeated her fear in anger. "If you call me a bitch, I will throw you black blood. No way you are like you? I didn't call you. Is it a bitch or not, it's not your turn to say!"

Her intimidation made the other party calmer. Xiaoxia then realized that the "good sister" who attacked her was very fierce. It might be because she was unwilling to die and was wronged. However, she must have been not a powerful character during her lifetime, so it was not too difficult to deal with. She was just scared out of her courage before. Thinking about it, she was really useless. She learned all the five elements forbidden methods, but her courage was not good at all.

This time, the amulet saved her again. The reason why the amulet did not react immediately was because she tossed and turned on the bed and couldn't sleep. She wrapped the amulet on the inner side of the shoulder strap of her pajamas, probably far from her heart, so she didn't feel it immediately!

"Why do you always come to pester me? Do I owe you?" Xiao Xia asked angrily.

"Who asked you to be with him? He is not a good person, nor are you!" The other party made a lot of money, but the talisman drawn by Bao Datong seemed very powerful. She didn't run away, but she still curled up in the corner.

Xiao Xia was stunned, and then He Fugui's face appeared in his mind, "Are you talking about He Fugui? I'm just working for him. No matter what your relationship with him has, it has nothing to do with me. Go and find him, his room is in the presidential suite upstairs!" Xiao Xia kindly reminded.

"Do you think I don't want it?" the 'woman' hated, "He has evil spirits to protect me, and I can't get close to you."

"Then are you bullying me? You are really good, you just pick the soft ones!" Xiao Xia felt that the person in front of her was simply unreasonable, so she was so angry that she completely forgot to be afraid. But when she said that, she suddenly realized what the other person meant.

Evil? What is that? And, who is this ‘woman’?
