Chapter 5  : Something Strange Happened

When the two of them reached the school gate, Jiang Mo’s eyes suddenly lit up. She turned to Yun Qin and said, “Xiao Qin, my husband is here to pick me up.”

“Your husband? So intimate. You’re already calling him ‘husband’,” Yun Qin teased, she knew about Jiang Mo’s boyfriend, Zhou Hao. Although Zhou Hao was from an ordinary family and was completely different from Jiang Mo, who was the pearl of the wealthy Jiang family in the capital, her family couldn’t deny Jiang Mo’s affection towards him. Therefore, the Jiang family recognized Zhou Hao’s existence.

“Our two families have been discussing marriage recently! I’ll let you know if there are any results.”Jiang mo stuck out her tongue. Although her face was sallow due to the invasion of the evil gas, her happiness couldn’t be hidden.

Jiang Mo didn’t notice that Yun Qin was not listening to her. She was talking about their love story, but Yun Qin was getting more and more worried.

Why was the Rakshasa scent getting stronger? Why was Jiang Mo contaminated by so much evil energy?

When they reached the side of the road, a man came out of the car. He opened a parasol and waved at the two of them. Yun Qin immediately pulled Jiang Mo back, who was about to head over.

“What’s wrong? Can’t bear to leave me?” Jiang Mo said with a smile.

“You have to take care of yourself.” Yun Qin stared vigilantly at the man holding the parasol in the distance.

Even when the Yang energy was at its peak in the afternoon, the Yang energy on Jiang Mo’s boyfriend, Zhou Hao, was hardly visible. Instead, he was covered with spiraling wisps of black smoke, which was mixed with a strong scent of a Rakshasa ghost.

“You’re so worried about me? Perfect timing. Are you free this afternoon? Come to my place!” Jiang Mo saw Yun Qin’s reluctance to leave her and was instantly overjoyed. She enthusiastically wanted to drag Yun Qin to her house to visit.

Seeing that Zhou Hao was waiting patiently with a smile on his face and did not show anything unusual, Yun Qin decided that she could go to Jiang Mo’s house to check out the situation there, so she replied, “Okay, okay, okay. Miss, don’t drag me. I drove here.”

Jiang Mo was finally willing to let go of Yun Qin, and her face became clearer. She only felt that staying with Yun Qin made her feel much at ease, but in reality, Yun Qin absorbed most of the black smoke on Jiang Mo’s body.

She drove her sports car to Jiang Mo’s house. She and her boyfriend, Zhou Hao, had been living together for a short while as part of the pre-wedding adjustment.

As soon as she entered Jiang Mo’s apartment, Yun Qin realized that something was wrong.

How could a perfectly fine house be covered by layers and layers of thick curtains? It was as if she was living in a grave.

Jiang Mo’s explanation was that Zhou Hao developed a skin disease that prevented him from seeing the sun, so he could only arrange it this way during his recovery period.

While Zhou Hao was washing fruits in the kitchen, Yun Qin stopped Jiang mo and asked seriously, “Mo Mo (Jiang Mo’s nickname), tell me honestly, have you experienced anything unusual recently?”

Looking at Yun Qin’s solemn expression, Jiang Mo suddenly felt guilty. She scratched her head in embarrassment and said, “It might be the reason why my nerves have been a mess recently. I keep feeling that…”

Jiang Mo paused and her voice became softer as she said, “I’m an atheist, but I’m not lying to you! I keep feeling that there’s someone else living in my house!”

Yun Qin was not surprised that she was haunted by the Rakshasa. Instead, she noticed another problem. “You’re such a cheerful person. How can your nerves be a mess?”

Jiang mo mumbled, “Just… I don’t know either.”

However, she could not lie when her close friend Yun Qin was looking at her with concern. She subconsciously looked at Zhou Hao’s busy figure in the kitchen and she whispered, “Zhou Hao… he must be under a lot of pressure. Recently, he started to sleepwalk. Every time I wake up, I find that Zhou Hao has his eyes closed and is doing all sorts of strange things…”

“What kind of strange things?” Yun Qin frowned again. What kind of situation could scare the fearless Jiang Mo to this extent?

“Sometimes he’s waving a knife, sometimes he’s combing his hair in front of the mirror. One time, he was standing right in front of me, staring at me…”

Yun Qin sat up quickly. She was sure that the Rakshasa did something in the dark. She released her evil energy in the apartment, looking for the Rakshasa’s hiding place.

Seeing this, Jiang Mo couldn’t help but defend Zhou Hao. “I asked the doctor, and he said that this is a possible sleepwalking symptom, and it has something to do with his personal experiences…”

Just as Jiang Mo was speaking, Yun Qin felt an unusual wave of evil energy in the bedroom. She controlled her evil energy and suddenly probed.

“Ah!”

Both of them heard a woman’s scream, and then everything returned to a deep silence.

Just as Jiang Mo was in a daze, Zhou Hao slowly walked out of the kitchen without anyone noticing.. He was holding a sharp kitchen knife in his hand.
