Chapter 437: Chapter 437 Strange Couple_1

Qin Sisi picked up her hot tea and took a sip, complinting, "Good tea!"

Boss Zheng also took a sip with a smile, quietly explaining to Qin Sisi the na and origin of the tea.

After Boss Zheng finished talking, Qin Sisi flashed a smile and said crisply, "Uncle Zheng, I hope you didn’t just invite

here to drink tea."

Boss Zheng calmly said, "You are such an impatient child."

Qin Sisi cast a glance at Ye You and said with a playful smile, "Of course, I want to earn more money."

Apart from this reason, Qin Sisi couldn’t think of any other explanation for her interest in ghosts.

But to Boss Zheng, her lie was almost transparent. If Qin Sisi was indeed intent on amassing wealth, why would she offer him such a high rebate?

Boss Zheng shook his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "Sisi, if you don’t want to talk about it, I won’t pry. If you ever encounter any difficulties, feel free to ask for my help."

A warmth filled Qin Sisi’s heart as she softly said, "Thank you, Uncle Zheng. I don’t have any difficulties. I just want... to catch more ghosts."

The truth involved Ye You’s secret. Even though Boss Zheng was a trustworthy person, she had to protect his safety by keeping his secret.

Boss Zheng nodded without further inquiries. He directly said, "Alright, let’s get down to business."

Qin Sisi collected her thoughts, watching Boss Zheng with focused and serious eyes, waiting for him to provide so specific clues.

After so deliberation, Boss Zheng started, "I have a friend nad Mr. Fu. He is a businessman with a large fortune. He and I have so business dealings.

In the first months of last year, his wife fell ill and passed away. At the end of the year, he remarried.

Normally, this would be a joyous occasion, but recently he approached

saying that since his marriage, he’s been feeling sothing strange in his house.

It seems like there are more than just their family and servants residing there. Personal items misplaced mysteriously.

For instance, keys placed on the hallway cabinet before bed sohow end up on the washstand the following morning.

Furthermore, his health began to deteriorate with various minor illnesses. He used to be very healthy, often horse riding and golfing, but recently he started to experience backaches and chills and his once-rosey complexion started to turn yellowish.

At first, he thought it was fatigue, so he went for a checkup in the hospital. However, doctors said there was nothing wrong with him.

Being close to fifty and having his fair share of life experience, he suspected that sothing impure might have entered his house, so he asked

to check for him."

Qin Sisi exchanged a brief glance with Ye You.

The symptoms Boss Zheng ntioned were too vague to indicate if it’s a ghost. Only a personal visit could confirm it.

So Qin Sisi said to Boss Zheng, "Just based on these descriptions, I can’t make a sure guess. I think we should pay a quick visit!"

Boss Zheng nodded, "That’s what I was thinking too. Seeing is believing. Do you have so free ti in the next couple of days?"

Qin Sisi imdiately responded, "Yes, I am ready to go whenever."

Her definite answer pleased Boss Zheng, who then said to Qin Sisi, "I’ll make a quick phone call. Please sit tight for a mont."

Knowing Boss Zheng must be contacting his friend, Mr. Fu, Qin Sisi nodded in agreent.

In standing up, Boss Zheng left the room.

Seeing him leave, Qin Sisi lowered her head and whispered to Ye You, "What do you think?"

Ye You replied in a low voice, "I think the sa as you. Only a personal visit could confirm it. You responded perfectly."

Ye You’s serious tone combined with the subtle praise made Qin Sisi’s heart skip a beat.

It didn’t take long for Boss Zheng to return. He looked pleased as he said to Qin Sisi, "I’ve made the arrangents. We’ll go over tonight."

A sense of confusion washed over Qin Sisi. If they were trying to catch a ghost, it would indeed be preferable to go at night. However, since nothing was certain yet, shouldn’t they start with a visit under the guise of a social call during the dayti?

Boss Zheng, being adept at reading expressions, picked up on Qin Sisi’s confusion and explained gently, "His wife works during the day. She is ho only at night."

Qin Sisi paused for a mont, then asked hesitantly, "Could it be...he suspects his newly-wed wife?"

Surprised by Qin Sisi’s keen observation, Boss Zheng cleared his throat and said, "His point is that before the arrival of his new wife, his life was going well. These peculiar feelings started happening only after her arrival. So..."

Even though Boss Zheng didn’t finish his sentence, Qin Sisi got the point.

She had originally thought that Mr. Fu was simply suspicious of his own house, but to her surprise, it was his newly-wed wife he doubted.

But Qin Sisi hadn’t t any of the parties involved and couldn’t cast aspersions or judge them out of the blue.

All she did was nod subtly and say, "I understand. I’ll be careful tonight."

After arranging the ti with Boss Zheng, Qin Sisi returned ho with Ye You.

With the afternoon free, Qin Sisi had Ye You help her create a barrier, so she could practice magic for a few hours.

As the agreed ti approached, Qin Sisi packed and went downstairs with Ye You.

Boss Zheng was punctual. As soon as Qin Sisi reached the community gate, Boss Zheng’s car pulled up, giving her a horn.

Once Qin Sisi hopped into the car, Boss Zheng smoothly started the engine.

After driving for several tens of minutes, the car stopped at the entrance of a high-end residential complex.

The complex was nad "First Mansion
