Wang Yao looked at the talisman in his hand.
Can I still return it if I don’t buy it now?
What if I really encounter danger after returning it?
But for him, an ordinary salaried worker, eight thousand yuan was almost two months of his salary.
Wang Yao’s hand, the one holding his mobile phone, trembled as he scanned the QR code to make the payment, feeling like his heart was bleeding.
The ten thousand yuan he had painstakingly saved up suddenly became a balance of two thousand.

Seeing Wang Yao’s expression of someone on the verge of breaking down, Xia Xin quickly coughed and tucked away his phone, saying, “Well, Uncle Wang, why don’t you take him to the side hall to sit for a bit, and I’ll go get you some more water!”
They hadn’t even drunk the previous water, so what was there to prepare?!
Wang Xinjun was puzzled.
However, before he could speak, Xia Xin had dashed away like a wisp of smoke.
Wang Xinjun looked at Wang Yao, who was on the brink of tears, and patted his shoulder in consolation as he led him to the side hall.
In the side hall, Jiangli took out her mobile phone and sat by the window.
When Wang Yao was talking to her, her phone kept ringing; it was the sound of private messages from the video app.
Yet, she didn’t open them immediately, deliberately waiting for a while.
Now, when she finally checked, someone was messaging her non-stop in the private messages.
This person’s name was Yun Xizi.
Jiangli glanced at her profile information; she was also a beauty vlogger.
She introduced herself right off the bat, clarifying her identity and purpose. She claimed to be beauty vlogger Nana’s good friend. Now that Nana had disappeared without a trace, she wanted to ask for her help in finding her.
Jiangli clicked her tongue.
She still remembered who Nana was.
Jiangli wanted to reply, but as her typing was not fluent, she could only tap out a few simple characters and then shouted outward, “Xia Xin—”
“Ah, coming—”
Xia Xin’s voice came from not too far away.
As Wang Yao and Wang Xinjun just entered the side hall, they saw Xia Xin rush in like a gust of wind, carrying a teapot.
“You called for me, esteemed ancestor?”
Wang Yao and Wang Xinjun both stood rooted to the spot.
Jiangli handed her phone to Xia Xin, “Reply to her, tell her that I don’t deal with people who don’t believe in me and to handle their own matters.”
Xia Xin received the phone with a skeptical look, and only then did he understand the situation.
He still remembered how upset the old ancestor had been when she had her comments deleted and was reported in the morning.
These people were indeed a piece of work.
Back then, they were ruthless, and now they were seeking help from her.
No wonder the old ancestor was displeased.
Although Xia Xin felt somewhat reluctant, he still relayed Jiangli’s message as she had said.
Because he knew that the old ancestor was tough-talking but soft-hearted and wouldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
Not long after his reply, Yun Xizi responded with a screen full of apologies, various expressions of sorry, followed by fervent pleas, hoping they could forgive her shortcoming by considering the merit of saving a life, which surpasses the virtue of building a seventh level pagoda, and help them out.
Seeing the contents, Xia Xin read them aloud for Jiangli to hear.
Only then did Wang Yao and Wang Xinjun realize that the esteemed guest Jiangli was referring to was on the phone.
The two acted in sync, not daring to make a sound, fearing that they might disturb Jiangli’s work, and quietly took their seats.
Wang Yao also wanted to see with his own eyes whether Jiangli truly had the skills.
“Tell her to send Nana’s birth details and, if possible, a photo without a beauty filter! I need to see her facial features clearly,” Jiangli recalled the video she saw in the morning and added, “Also, if there are photos of the people around her, send one of those as well.”
Xia Xin’s fingers paused while typing, “A photo of someone close to her?”
Jiangli picked up the tea cup, “Hmm, it’s likely an issue with someone close to her. Her facial features suggest she easily trusts the unworthy and could be harmed by them; we’ll know more after seeing the photo.”
