Rebirth: Ghost Exorciser

1495 Foresight?

When Chi Shuyan turned down Jing Hengran’s invitation and left the auction house with the spirit tea which he had given her, she was still feeling a bit stupefied, mainly because she still couldn’t believe the price of the spirit tea. It was too expensive. However, when she thought of how Jing Hengran and Qian Zhengde looked like they were still making a loss, Chi Shuyan felt that she had really set the price of her spirit tea too low.

It was just that she didn’t plan to raise the price of the spirit tea too much in her online shop. For one thing, the price she had set before was too low; if she suddenly raised it, people would think she was greedy, and it would be bad for the shop’s reputation. For another, her Taobao shop wasn’t an auction house when it came down to it; however, she could try giving a portion of her spirit tea to the Jing Auction House to help auction off. When the time came, she could take a commission or two and make a profit.

Thinking this, Chi Shuyan felt more and more that this was a good way to earn money. She didn’t have to worry about making money. She would ask the other party again after she refined the Marrow Recovery Pill.

After leaving the Jing Auction House, Chi Shuyan specially found a tea shop and chose a lot of good tea. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, she secretly stuffed everything into her Cosmos Ring. She then hurried back to school for class.

During class in the afternoon, many people found out that Yang Lan had been disfigured by sulfuric acid, and everyone was talking about it.

Chi Shuyan didn’t care about Yang Lan being splashed with sulfuric acid. It could only be said that those who did evil brought about their own destruction. Since she already knew the truth, she couldn’t be bothered to listen to the gossip around her.

Yang Lan and the son-in-law of the Ren family had pulled at each other to block the sulfuric acid – why was it that in the mouths of others, Yang Lan had sacrificed herself for love?

Chi Shuyan was quite impressed by this rumor. During class, Big Fatty, who sat next to her, took the rare initiative to suddenly ask in a low voice, “Did you already know that Yang Lan was splashed with sulfuric acid?”

Big Fatty looked at Chi Shuyan carefully; he thought that she and Yang Lan were very close, and hadn’t dared to mention this ‘sad matter.’ Seeing this, Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but smile and nod. “Mm, I know a little!”

“Oh, right, someone in our class knows which hospital Yang Lan is in, and a group is planning to go see her. Are you going?” Big Fatty asked.

“No!” Chi Shuyan really didn’t want to go. She didn’t really want to go and get in on the fun, nor did she want to see Yang Lan. However, in the eyes of the others, her relationship with Yang Lan had always been good. It wasn’t just Big Fatty, several members of the class committee also asked her to go with them.

Chi Shuyan: …

In the end, after everyone sought her out, Chi Shuyan could only nod and agree to go with everyone in a few days!

Class ended several minutes later. Chi Shuyan packed her things and was about to go home to refine pills and wash spirit tea, but before she could leave, Counselor Zhang called her to his office. Chi Shuyan was a bit puzzled as to why Counselor Zhang was looking for her. It was only when most of the teachers in the office had left that Counselor Zhang said, “Shuyan, I’m not the one looking for you this time. I’m looking for you on Director Huang’s behalf. He wants to ask you for a few Safety Talismans.”

When Chi Shuyan heard this, she was really stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted. Looking at Counselor Zhang’s embarrassed expression, she curled her lip. Although she didn’t care about one or two talismans, she didn’t have much of a relationship with Director Huang, so she naturally couldn’t directly give him the talismans. Instead, she said, “Assistant Director Zhang, you can tell Director Huang that these talismans aren’t for sale!”

Counselor Zhang hurriedly said, “That’s right. As teachers, how can we take advantage of a student? I already said this to Director Huang, but he said he wants them no matter how much they cost.”

Counselor Zhang couldn’t help but feel proud when he thought of how Director Huang’s attitude toward him and Shuyan had changed 180 degrees when he went to see him at noon.

It had to be said that Director Huang’s attitude toward Counselor Zhang changed after the former was stabbed by that thing last time. The other party started seeking him out and curry favor with him. Counselor Zhang hadn’t thought much of it at that time and had been flattered. He thought that Director Huang’s attitude had changed a little because Counselor Zhang had visited him when he was in the hospital. He didn’t expect it to be because of Shuyan.

Counselor Zhang was naturally incomparably happy and proud to have such a capable student. Speaking of which, although he said that teachers couldn’t take advantage of students, he had taken advantage of this student’s good nature in the past. This child had always been generous with her talismans. Looking at Shuyan’s attitude toward Director Huang, Counselor Zhang felt really sweet, as if he had been doused with honey. This child was really too good to him and his family.

Chi Shuyan didn’t know what Counselor Zhang was thinking at that moment. After pondering for a while, she gave him the price of 30,000 per talisman.

“Okay, okay, Shuyan, I’ll definitely tell Director Huang for you and won’t let you suffer.” After that, Counselor Zhang specially asked for Shuyan’s Alipay account number before letting her go.

Before Chi Shuyan left, however, she didn’t forget to ask about her previous leave application. Counselor Zhang said cheerfully, “Shuyan, don’t worry. Director Huang didn’t ask about your leave application at all. He just wants to buy a few talismans from you. However, you can’t take leave again in the future. You’ve already taken too many days off this semester. Fortunately, you can keep up with the coursework. If you couldn’t, not to mention Director Huang, even I would scold you!”

As a teacher, he naturally hoped that students would put their studies first.

Chi Shuyan was afraid that Counselor Zhang would nag her again, so she hurriedly nodded and agreed. “I understand, Counselor Zhang.”

After returning to the villa, Chi Shuyan wasn’t in a hurry to refine pills. Instead, she took out the tea leaves she had bought and poured them into a large basin before washing them with spiritual energy. Her cultivation level was now quite high, and the spiritual energy around her was also more abundant compared with other cultivators on Earth. After washing all the tea leaves in one go, she wasn’t even panting for breath.

After washing the tea leaves, Chi Shuyan was very satisfied when she smelled their strong fragrance. She thought that she could sell them by the jar this time. She wasn’t in a hurry to put them up for sale, but logged into her account to take a look at her shop. However, before Chi Shuyan could take a closer look at the goods which had been sold, she received a message from the ID of that unfamiliar person who had asked her last time if there were ghosts and gods in this world. The message read: Are there people in this world who can truly foresee anything?
