Chapter 230 - 230 230 Going to Do Something Bad
?Chapter 230: Chapter 230 Going to Do Something Bad Chapter 230: Chapter 230 Going to Do Something Bad Ji Jiayi had a thick skin but still knew his boundaries.
After having a cup of tea at Luo Ning’s place for about twenty minutes, he stood up to take his leave.
His main goal was to make his presence felt and to make a lasting impression on Luo Ning’s mother.
After all, if he could end up successfully chasing after Luo Ning, this lady would be his mother-in-law.
Luo Ning walked him to the door, oblivious to his train of thought, otherwise she would have definitely thrown her tea in his face.
Upon returning, Luo Ning saw Ji Xinghang wearing a look of aggrieved innocence.
Luo Ning: “…” Anyone would think she had wronged him somehow.
She asked, “Aren’t you leaving too?”
Ji Xinghang continued to look aggrieved, “Can’t I even sit for a little while longer?”
“Why did you even invite that smiling tiger up for tea?”
Luo Ning rolled her eyes at him, “It’s perfectly normal to invite someone for tea after they’ve driven me back and forth, taking up so much of their time, right? It’s just politeness.”
Ji Xinghang tentatively asked, “You don’t have feelings for him, do you?”
Luo Ning rolled her eyes again, “What on earth goes on in your head all day? I’m not even that familiar with him, how could I have feelings for him?”
Ji Jiayi’s appearance, temperament, and personality were not her cup of tea at all.
Hearing that, Ji Xinghang instantly stopped feeling sour.
A smile appeared on his face, “That’s good.”
Luo Ning thought for a moment and then gestured for him to come closer, “You’re not busy right now, are you? Want to join me in doing something mischievous?”
It was quite boring and tiring for her to drive alone for more than two hours to the Gou family’s ancestral tomb.
She could actually make use of Ji Xinghang as a free driver and some extra muscle.
Their relationship wasn’t that bad now; if they couldn’t be lovers, then let them be like siblings who get along well.
It would also give her mother and Aunt Lan some peace of mind; otherwise, if she and Ji Xinghang were at each other’s throats, cutting off all contact, it would be awkward for both of them.
Ji Xinghang’s eyes lit up, “I’m not busy, let’s go.”
Of course, he wasn’t busy!
He would soon send a message to a few friends, canceling the dinner plans for that evening.
Seeing him like that, Luo Ning couldn’t help but laugh, “Wait for me a minute.”
She first let her mother know.
Jiang Xinxin was aware of what she was going to do and didn’t try to stop her, only reminding her to be careful.
Then Luo Ning went back to her room to get her things ready, grabbed a backpack, and then headed out with Ji Xinghang.
This time at the underground parking lot, Ji Xinghang automatically opened the passenger door for her without her needing to say or do anything.
Luo Ning didn’t stand on ceremony and got in.
She gave him an address and he set up the navigation and drove there.
On the way, Ji Xinghang didn’t ask Luo Ning what they were going to do.
Regardless of whether it was to scale a mountain of swords or plunge into a sea of flames, he would be there with her.
The two of them chatted idly about the past, veering from one topic to another, and quickly the couple of hours passed.
The Gou family’s ancestral tomb was on a mountain, and by now it was completely dark.
Luo Ning had Ji Xinghang park the car at the base of the mountain and handed him a flashlight, “Let’s climb the mountain.”
Ji Xinghang asked curiously, “What are we doing running up here?”
If Luo Ning hadn’t mentioned they were going to do something bad, he could’ve mistaken her intention for stargazing.
Luo Ning responded while walking, “The Gou family’s ancestral tomb is on this mountain, what do you think I’m here for?”
Ji Xinghang was taken aback, “Are you planning to do something to the Gou family’s tomb?”
Luo Ning nodded, “Yeah. Do you think that’s inappropriate?”
Ji Xinghang immediately said, “No, I think it’s quite appropriate.”
“If it weren’t for your talisman today, and the people Aunt Xin called to secretly protect them, Luo Xi and Xixi would have been in trouble, getting injured would have been inevitable.”
“The women from the Gou Family are so arrogant, all because they rely on Old Man Gou’s power, it’s about time someone taught them and the Gou Family a lesson.”
He naturally knew what kind of words would please Luo Ning.
Moreover, he felt the same way, harming the family members he cared for, this wasn’t something Luo Ning would let go of, let alone himself.
Luo Ning treated Qi Yuelan like a mother, and Ji Xinghang had also been close to Jiang Xinxin and her husband since he was young.
Therefore, he also considered Jiang Xinxin and her husband, as well as Luo Xi, as his own family.
Luo Ning was indeed pleased with his words, “Exactly, I don’t provoke others if they don’t provoke me, but if they’re begging for trouble, I certainly won’t be polite.”
It took them over half an hour to reach the mountain, and then they successfully found the Gou Family’s ancestral grave.
The feng shui arrangement around it was very good, and the location was a lotus-shaped treasure land that was said to enhance wealth and benefit the family.
Luo Ning didn’t plan to directly disturb the Gou Family’s ancestral grave, so she only took out the set of coins.
Seeing this, Ji Xinghang asked, “Do you need any help?”
Luo Ning had other things to do, so she handed the set of coins to him.
“Bury these coins around the perimeter of the grave, spaced about seventy centimeters apart.”
She then took out a soldier’s spade and a tape measure from her bag and handed them to him.
Ji Xinghang took them and started to work.
Luo Ning took out some talisman paper and a Compass, buried them according to the directions, and burned some directly.
Ji Xinghang was almost done burying the coins.
But as he was burying the last coin, he suddenly stepped on a pebble, slipped, and fell straight to the ground.
Instinctively, he used his hands to brace himself from falling too badly.
The hand holding the coin was then cut by the coin, and blood instantly dyed it red, and a wisp of evil spirit crept into his wound.
Luo Ning hurried over, took the coin from him, and then helped him handle his injury.
She asked, “Are you okay?”
Ji Xinghang shook his head, “I’m fine, just accidentally fell.”
Then he buried the coin in his hand in the hole.
Luo Ning adjusted some of the surrounding feng shui, and then called for Ji Xinghang to leave the mountain.
While driving, Ji Xinghang asked, “About when will the Gou Family start experiencing misfortune?”
When the Gou Family met misfortune, he would also be able to strike.
Luo Ning trusted Ji Xinghang, “It will start to take effect slowly from tomorrow, and it should become apparent in about a week or so.”
Ji Xinghang nodded, “Understood.”
Luo Ning didn’t know what he was planning, but she didn’t stop him either.
After all, even if it wasn’t for her sake, Ji Xinghang and Aunt Lan would not sit idly by because of her mother’s reasons.
If she were to stop him, it would make her seem distant.
Even if they had broken up, it did not negate the fact that the relationship between the two families was still very good.
On the way, Ji Xinghang saw Luo Ning with a bit of weariness in her brows and eyes, so he suggested she lean back and sleep for a while.
Luo Ning didn’t play the polite card, adjusted the seat to a comfortable position, and closed her eyes to rest.
The talisman she drew for her brother today had drained most of her energy.
The Array she had set up tonight was also quite energy-consuming; she was genuinely a bit tired.
Luo Ning closed her eyes and rested without talking, but Ji Xinghang felt a familiar sense of security and warmth.
When they arrived outside the apartment, Luo Ning opened her eyes, thanked Ji Xinghang, and then went home.
After getting home that evening, Ji Xinghang made some arrangements over the phone, took a shower, and went to bed.
He didn’t expect to have a very long dream, and when he woke up, he was already in tears.
