Chapter 157: Chapter 157: The Eccentric Ancestor

Wang Xinjun was filled with gratitude toward Jiangli at the time, and when Wang Yao asked, he blurted out everything Jiangli had advised him, telling it all without holding back.

Wang Yao originally didn’t believe in these things, but Wang Xinjun spoke with such certainty, he even mentioned Wang Zixin’s incident, and how he himself had been unaware of it; otherwise, he wouldn’t have rushed over in such a hurry. He would’ve stopped Zixin from going out.

The reason he arrived so timely was all due to Jiangli’s guidance.

He spoke with such conviction, as if he would stake his life to vouch for Jiangli.

Wang Yao was somewhat convinced.

Because he had also been quite unlucky these past few days.

Whether at home or when going out, he always felt like someone was following him.

Sometimes, when he was sleeping drowsily, or just after using the toilet, or while washing his hands, he would inadvertently look up and seem to catch a glimpse of a shadow in the mirror, or beside him.

A very vague shadow.

He couldn’t make out the other party’s appearance.

But he had a vague feeling that it might be a woman.

At first, he thought it was due to the high pressure he had been under recently, or that he had confused his dreams with reality while half-asleep.

But later, he realized that the occurrences became more and more frequent.

Occasionally, when he was asleep, he felt as if someone was whispering in his ear, urging him to go back to bed.

Sometimes, he would fall asleep on the sofa without a blanket, and when he suddenly woke up, he would find himself covered with one.

“Could it be… that you covered yourself with the blanket, but forgot?” Wang Xinjun swallowed hard, touching his arm, feeling a bit creeped out.

Wang Yao decisively shook his head, “No, that’s impossible because at that time I was sleeping on the living room sofa, and the blankets were all in the bedroom put away by my mother; I hadn’t been to the bedroom, so how could I have possibly taken a blanket to cover myself?”

Xia Xin speculated, “Then maybe it was your mother?”

Wang Yao still shook his head, “My mom was away on a trip with my dad at that time. I initially thought she’d returned, and searched the whole house, but she was nowhere to be found. When I called her, I found out that she was still out of town and had not come back at all.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Xinjun felt as if the wind around him had grown colder.

At first, when Wang Yao told him he wanted to ask for the Abbot of Jiaoyang Temple’s help and asked him to bring him there, he hadn’t mentioned that it was for this kind of matter!

This was too frightening!

Xia Xin’s heart tightened, and he couldn’t help but look toward Jiangli.

But he noticed that Jiangli’s gaze had been fixed on the right side of Wang Yao’s waist the whole time.

There seemed to be a pocket there, slightly bulging, and it was unclear what it contained.

Could it be that there was something there?

“What do you have there?” Xia Xin was wondering when Jiangli raised his hand and pointed to Wang Yao’s pocket, asking.

“This?”

Wang Yao covered his own pocket and subconsciously reached in to rummage, quickly pulling out a bunch of items, “Oh, these are just some things I carry with me, what about them?”

Xia Xin took a glance, there were keys, a card holder, and something that looked like a peace charm.

“Who gave you this?” Jiangli walked over and among the pile of items, picked out the peace charm.

Wang Yao was puzzled, “This is the Attract Peach Blossoms Talisman my mother got for me earlier, she said wearing this would attract love luck.”

Jiangli weighed the so-called Attract Peach Blossoms Talisman, with a smile that was not quite a smile, “It seems you have a good mother.”

Anyone could tell that Jiangli was being sarcastic.

Wang Yao, confused, asked, “Abbot… why do you say that, is there something wrong with this Talisman?”

“This is indeed a Peach Blossom Talisman, but it’s not for attracting the regular kind of admirers.” Jiangli stretched out his hand to unfold the Talisman Paper.

Only then did everyone realize that it wasn’t a piece of Talisman Paper.

Inside was actually a piece of red paper with some characters written on it.
