Chapter 148 - Snatching Talismans
Chapter 148: Snatching Talismans
Feng Yanli’s words struck a chord with Father Feng. He hesitated a little. “But what if we say too much and accidentally offend that Master?”
“That Master is indeed capable, but haven’t we also done a lot for him?” Feng Yanli rolled her eyes and said, “He looks like he’s in a hurry to cultivate. When the time comes, Dad, you…” Feng Yanli whispered in her father’s ear.
“Is that good?” Father Feng was a little hesitant. “If the fate of that classmate of yours is worse than the previous one, then wouldn’t all your efforts be wasted?”
“Dad, those who are cowardly starve to death and those who are bold stuff themselves!” Feng Yanli made a forceful case. “If we don’t make more plans for ourselves, and that Master doesn’t need us anymore, it’ll be hard to make requests of him then. Plus, you’re still a struggling tycoon. Don’t you want to quickly squeeze into upper crust society? You won’t have to curry favor with others; by then, others will be fawning on you!”
Hearing this, Father Feng thought of how that glory would be his one day. He then gritted his teeth and made up his mind. “Okay!”
…
In a villa.
“F*ck, it was all snatched up just like that?” Qi Hao kept tapping the keyboard and mouse in disbelief. “There were clearly still many talismans when I went on; how did they disappear all at once?”
“Haozi, can you do it or not? You’re so useless!” Wang Xuewen, who was sitting quietly on the side, anxiously pulled Qi Hao aside and refreshed the webpage countless times. When he saw that the hundreds of talismans were sold out, he couldn’t help but curse. “F*ck, I didn’t even have the time to show off my prowess. This bunch of robbers are too fast! I finally understand; compared with that fake, this is the real deal!”
Wang Xuewen sighed with incomparable vicissitudes. Why did they think that the talismans of that fake Master before were popular? Compared with that fake Master, Sister-in-law’s talismans were simply harder to snatch up than ascending to the heavens.
“I don’t need you to tell me how to grab them, you stinky idiot! You burned my talismans back then!” Qi Hao kicked the chair Wang Xuewen was sitting on and couldn’t help but punch him a few more times. He hammered Wang Xuewen so hard that the latter almost spewed out his dinner from the night before. Qi Hao even grabbed the feather duster beside him.
“Hey, hey, why are you always harping on about that?” Wang Xuewen rubbed his hair, which was like a chicken’s nest, and dodged away with a wronged look, looking somewhat embarrassed. “I already know I was wrong; can’t you give me a chance to make things right?”
Wang Xuewen was filled with remorse at the thought of his actions in the past, especially as he became more and more aware of the value of the talismans. The more he envied Lu Chengfu’s luck, the more he wondered why he had courted death in the first place. It was because every time it was brought up, Haozi couldn’t help but give him a painful beating. But whenever he thought about how he had burned those talismans and courted death, he couldn’t help but give himself a few sharp slaps.
“Okay, okay, stop it! It wasn’t easy for me to slip out, don’t hit me in the face. If my parents find out that I snuck out, I won’t be able to bear the consequences!” Wang Xuewen had been pretty stifled these last few days. His parents had taken his electronic devices and grounded him at home. It wasn’t easy for him to crawl out over the wall. Who would have thought that Qi Hao would beat him up at the drop of a hat? His life was just too good!
Qi Hao narrowed his eyes. “Yeah, aren’t you still grounded?”
Wang Xuewen nodded quickly, thinking that Qi Hao’s conscience had been pricked. He complained, “Yeah, it’s different for me. I don’t even have my phone right now. My parents are guarding against me like they’re guarding against a thief.” Wang Xuewen rambled on and on as he complained, but before he could finish, he saw Qi Hao bare his canine teeth and make a phone call. He instantly had a bad feeling, and his face changed dramatically. He pounced on him and snatched away his phone as he howled plaintively, “Brother, you’re pushing me into a fire pit.”
“You deserve it!” Qi Hao ended the call, and seeing that Wang Xuewen was scared to death, he felt a little mollified. His eyes suddenly lit up. “Right, I remember that kid Yunxuan is the best at hacking and grabbing tickets. Let’s go and find him!”
He didn’t care about Wang Xuewen, who had been scared into turning pale, and walked straight out!
