Zhong Kui's Diary
"As for Ren Zhiming and Zhu Liancheng, they are also planning to take down Rui. Although Sha Zhiyuan won't sell the company to them, they can still buy it from Tang Zian, right? Ren Feiyu and Zhu Qi are both sent here to monitor Rui Company." Seeing that I remained silent, Yun Zhihan added, "It's ridiculous that this group from Rui Company is trying to put on a show in front of me. It's truly a case of showing off in front of an expert. However, I can't be bothered to expose them; what I care more about is where that treasure vault is!"
You wouldn't believe it, but that treasure vault is right within Rui Company, and you have no idea, do you? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh inwardly; it really isn't easy for Xiao Lin and the others to keep this secret.
"Uh, you're still pursuing Zhu Qi? What's that about?" I casually asked.
"This is purely out of boredom. I have needs too, you know? It's free love; I'm not forcing her." When it came to Zhu Qi, a hint of mischief flashed in Yun Zhihan's eyes.
For some reason, I suddenly thought of Easily Water Cold. That guy is definitely the most rebellious Demon; he actually managed to create a human body for himself, transforming from a ghost into a human to enjoy human life. When I saw him in Moon City, he seemed to be dating a waitress... Tsk tsk, such things are instinctual needs; there seems to be no right or wrong. For a moment, I fell silent.
"Any other questions?" Yun Zhihan asked lightly with a smile.
"What did Yeh Rong and Ye Litong do to provoke you?" I shifted my focus and said solemnly while staring at Yun Zhihan.
"Sha Zhiyuan treats his wife and children very well. Since he won't tell me, I'll just have to go after his wife and kids," Yun Zhihan replied nonchalantly. "At first, I tempted Yeh Rong into drug use, thinking that Sha Zhiyuan would reveal the whereabouts of the Yin Yang Ancient Coin due to concern for his wife's health. I didn't expect him to be so stubborn as to divorce Yeh Rong and abandon his daughter."
"That's a self-inflicted strategy!" I couldn't help but shout.
"I know that, which is why I never intended to let Yeh Rong off the hook. I directly bribed Dong Xiaocheng and starved Ye Litong," Yun Zhihan said with a smile. "The more he pretends not to care, the more he actually does care. I'm very clear about this..."
"You beast!" I swung my fist toward Yun Zhihan's face.
Yun Zhihan still wore a charming smile on his face; however, his demeanor was filled with disdain.
Just like before, I missed my punch again. But this time I was prepared; after taking two steps forward to cushion myself, when I turned around, two golden spheres had appeared in my hands—Thunder Realm and Fire Realm.
"Still coming?" Yun Zhihan's face showed a mocking expression as he shook his head and said, "I really don't understand you. Clearly, this is something ineffective, yet you repeat it over and over again, enjoying yourself."
"I enjoy it!" I waved the golden ball in my hand and lunged towards Yun Zhihan.
Yun Zhihan chuckled and disappeared into thin air, his voice echoing from all directions: "I currently have a request for you, so I am being lenient. But that doesn't mean I have no bottom line. If you truly provoke me, it wouldn't be difficult for me to kill you. Even without Zhang the Butcher, there will still be meat to eat. I don't believe I can't find the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin without you."
Fatty hurriedly advised from the side, "Ghost Brother, since you can't hit him anyway, let's talk about something else."
"Alright!" I took a few deep breaths and put away the golden ball. Only then did Yun Zhihan reappear in front of me.
"Is there anything else you want to ask?" Yun Zhihan asked with a half-smile. "If not, then our deal is successful. In the future, if you have news about the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin, you must inform me first."
I thought for a moment and felt that there was nothing else to ask; everything was already clear. I nodded and said, "Okay, I'll contact you by phone when the time comes."
Yun Zhihan laughed heartily and turned to leave.
I exchanged a glance with Fatty; we both had nothing to say and silently walked down the mountain. Just as we reached the foot of the mountain, we saw the heavily made-up woman again.
Fatty's eyes widened as he pointed at her nose and said, "I'll count to three. If you don't leave by then, I'll beat you up."
The woman let out a sultry laugh and even stuck out her tongue to lick Fatty's finger.
Fatty was instantly furious; he retracted his finger but swung his other fist directly at her, finally showing some concern as this punch was aimed at her shoulder.
The woman seemed either stunned or indifferent; she did not react to Fatty's punch at all.
With a loud "bang," Fatty struck the woman's shoulder.
I was well aware of Fatty's strength; even with just fifty percent of his power, he could easily send this woman flying two or three meters away.
To my surprise, the woman stood completely still, looking at us with a half-smile. After about four or five seconds, she said, "Shouldn't I scream in pain to prove your bravery?"
In my astonished gaze, the woman dramatically exclaimed, "Ouch! That hurts! Ouch, that really hurts!"
Fatty felt utterly humiliated and charged at her, delivering a knee strike directly to her abdomen with all his might.
Another "bang" echoed, followed by Fatty's loud scream. He bent over like a shrimp, writhing in pain on the ground while clutching his knee and gasping for breath. "Ghost Brother, this woman is pretending to be weak to catch us off guard!"
Seeing the situation turn dire, I quickly reached for the golden ball. Before I could even begin chanting the incantation, a figure flashed before me, and my hand felt light—the woman had snatched the golden ball away with astonishing speed. Tossing it lightly in her hand, she smiled at me and said, "Is this what you use for self-defense? Grandmaster Level Restriction?"
"Burn, Firebird!" As soon as I saw her holding the golden ball, I shouted the incantation loudly.
Unfortunately, just as I shouted "burn," she casually threw the golden ball to the ground, looking at me with that same half-smile.
Watching the golden ball surrounded by swirling golden mist on the ground filled me with a sense of helplessness. I had initially thought about pulling out another two golden balls, but considering her ghostly agility, I doubted I could chant the incantation before she snatched them away. If the golden ball couldn't activate the Restriction, it would just be a decorative item. I furrowed my brow and asked, "Who exactly are you?"
A smile appeared on the woman's lips. As her smile widened, her face transformed from heavily made-up to one of pure sweetness and innocence.
"My name is Gugu!" The girl smiled brightly.
"Gugu?" I gasped in shock. Damn, another Grandmaster-level Expert!
"Yes, aren't you surprised?" The sweet girl Gugu smiled at me.
"What is going on? You experts are all appearing in Star City to attend the Annual Recognition Conference?" I scratched my head.
"Haha, Zheng Nan, you are really funny," Gugu giggled. "You should know why I'm here."
"Are you also here for the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin?" I asked in astonishment.
"Why else?" Gugu replied with a smile. "Since everyone is here to join the fun, it wouldn't hurt for me to be here too."
With what Gugu said, a spark of inspiration flashed in my mind. Since you all want the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin, I might as well let everyone participate. The game begins when things get chaotic; only when you all stir things up can I take advantage of the situation.
I laughed and said, "Isn't it just the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin? Just leave me your phone numbers, and I'll notify you all when the time comes."
Gugu laughed and left her number, giggling a few times before turning and walking out of the park.
I checked Fatty's knee; fortunately, it was just an external injury and not serious. After calling An Ran to have him pick up Fatty, I returned home.
Sitting alone on the sofa, I was lost in thought for a while, vaguely feeling that I had found a way to solve all my current problems. Eventually, I fell asleep on the sofa in a confused daze.
The next morning, I arrived at Golden Leaf Building. Sha Zhiyuan has a Jewelry Company here, and the address on the business card he gave me that night was Fortune Jewelry on the 15th floor of Golden Leaf Building.
The receptionist apologized after learning that I didn't have an appointment and told me that Sha Zong wouldn't meet with anyone without an appointment. Hearing this made me feel an urge to force my way in. Taking a deep breath to calm my chaotic thoughts, I pretended to rummage through my belongings and handed her something: "This is my business card; please let Sha Zong know that I have important matters to discuss with him."
What I handed her wasn't a business card at all but a stack of hundred-dollar bills. I believed many people would be willing to keep such a "business card."
The receptionist seemed to be seeing this for the first time. Her hand trembled, and a hundred-dollar bill almost fell to the ground. She quickly grabbed a directory to cover the money and stammered, "In that case, let me ask again for you."
After making a phone call, the receptionist smiled at me, her expression no longer flustered. "An assistant will take you in shortly."
Before long, a girl with big eyes appeared, dressed in a white top and black skirt. She paused slightly upon seeing me. "Zheng Nan?"
I smiled faintly. "That's me." Then I was taken aback; wait, I hadn't mentioned my name earlier. How did this girl know who I was?
The girl with big eyes seemed to realize something but didn't explain. She led me inside, and halfway there, she whispered, "What are you here for?"
"Who are you?" I replied quietly.
"I'm Gugu!" The girl with big eyes winked at me, her face breaking into a mischievous smile.
"Gugu? What are you doing here?" I was even more surprised.
"Are you silly? I already knew that Sha Zhiyuan has the Yin-Yang Ancient Coin. Of course, I want to get close to him first," Gugu said with a light laugh.
