Chapter 147 Holy crap! It really backfired! Mr. Shen is a master!
Chapter 147 Holy crap! It really backfired! Mr. Shen is a master!
Helpless, Mr. Zhou could only take out a small stone that emitted a sinister aura from his bag, sneak to the gate of Shen Yu's courtyard, and throw the stone under the threshold when no one was paying attention, before running back quickly.
After doing all this, Su Wanqing smiled smugly: "Let's see how you sleep tonight! Once you're not comfortable here, you'll naturally want to switch courtyards with me."
Meanwhile, in Shen Yu's courtyard, the family was sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air.
Shen Yu leaned back in his rattan chair, watching Niannian and Guigui chase fireflies in the yard. Jiang Xinlan leaned against him, gently fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan.
"I'm so sorry about today, I've made you laugh at me." Jiang Xinlan sighed, "I didn't expect Su Wanqing to be so unreasonable."
"It's nothing." Shen Yu held her hand, his voice gentle. "He's just a clown, don't take it to heart."
He had long sensed the eerie aura emanating from the small pebble at the door, but he didn't take it seriously at all.
This tiny bit of yin energy couldn't even break through the protective array he had set up in the courtyard. As soon as it approached the threshold, it was automatically purified by the array without even causing a ripple.
Sure enough, the Shen family slept soundly through the night, and nothing happened.
On the contrary, Su Wanqing didn't sleep well all night and had a series of nightmares. She dreamed that she fell into an ice hole and felt cold all over. When she woke up in the morning, her dark circles were as heavy as a panda's.
"What happened?" Su Wanqing rubbed her eyes, looking annoyed. "Didn't you say you'd keep them from sleeping? Why did I have nightmares all night?"
Mr. Zhou's heart skipped a beat, a bad feeling creeping over him: "Maybe... maybe it's just a coincidence."
But what happened next completely shattered his hopes.
Su Wanqing got up to wash up, and just as she picked up her toothbrush, the handle suddenly broke, poking her gums and making her wince in pain.
She went to get a drink of water, but the glass suddenly slipped from her hand and shattered on the ground.
She changed her clothes and went out. As soon as she stepped down the stairs, she slipped and fell on her bottom, the pain keeping her from getting up for a long time.
In just one hour, Su Wanqing suffered seven or eight misfortunes in a row, leaving her covered in minor injuries and looking utterly disheveled.
Mr. Zhou watched all this, his face deathly pale, his whole body trembling:
"We're doomed! It really backfired! I told you not to mess with that man, but you wouldn't listen! Now look what's happened, the consequences are coming back on us!"
Su Wanqing's face turned pale, but she still stubbornly refused to admit it.
"Don't scare me. Shen Yu is just an ordinary person. How could he be as amazing as you say? If he were really that amazing, he would have been famous long ago. How could he have remained unknown?"
If she were that capable, she would have been incredibly arrogant long ago, instead of being so low-key.
Mr. Zhou was exasperated to see her still being so stubborn at this point.
"I'm not kidding you. If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do. But if you can't resolve this, you'll definitely have more and more bad luck in the future."
Hearing this, Su Wanqing finally became a little scared and dared not be stubborn anymore. "Then... what should we do? Mr. Zhou, please think of a solution!"
"What else can we do? Go apologize right now!" Mr. Zhou stamped his feet anxiously.
"Only by sincerely apologizing to Mr. Shen and asking for his forgiveness can we avert the backlash; otherwise, we'll only get worse off!"
Although Su Wanqing was unwilling, she was also frightened by the series of bad luck, so she could only grit her teeth and nod: "Okay... I'll go apologize."
The two tidied themselves up and, steeling themselves, went to the entrance of Shen Yu's courtyard.
This time, Su Wanqing didn't dare to force her way in. Standing at the door, she called softly, "Teacher Jiang, Mr. Shen, are you there?"
Hearing the noise, Jiang Xinlan came over and opened the door. Seeing the two of them looking disheveled, she was somewhat surprised: "Teacher Su? Mr. Zhou? Is something wrong?"
Su Wanqing lowered her head, not daring to look Jiang Xinlan in the eye, her voice barely a whisper:
"Teacher Jiang, Mr. Shen, I'm sorry. I was wrong yesterday. I shouldn't have argued with you over the yard, and I shouldn't have been so unreasonable. I was wrong, please forgive me."
Mr. Zhou also quickly stepped forward and bowed deeply to Shen Yu, his attitude extremely respectful:
"Mr. Shen, it was my fault for being ignorant and putting things at your door that would disrupt the feng shui. I know I was wrong, please forgive us this time."
Shen Yu sat on the stone bench in the courtyard without even raising his head, and simply said, "I've already dealt with the things. Don't do such a stupid thing again."
His voice was soft, yet it carried an undeniable power.
Mr. Zhou and Su Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the invisible pressure on them disappear, and their bodies felt much lighter.
"Thank you, Mr. Shen! Thank you, Mr. Shen!" Mr. Zhou thanked him repeatedly and pulled Su Wanqing to leave.
"Wait." Shen Yu finally raised his head and glanced at Su Wanqing. "The mountain roads of Wuling Mountain are difficult to travel. Don't go west today, something bad will happen."
Su Wanqing was stunned for a moment, not quite reacting yet, when Mr. Zhou quickly pulled her aside and nodded, "Okay, okay! We'll remember! We definitely won't go west today! Thank you for reminding us, Mr. Shen!"
After saying that, the two practically fled in panic, afraid that if they stayed any longer, they would offend this expert again.
Jiang Xinlan watched their retreating figures, and asked with some confusion, "They said they were leaving something by the door? What did they leave?"
"It's nothing," Shen Yu smiled and brushed it off lightly, "just a small pebble, I've already thrown it away."
He didn't want Jiang Xinlan to know about these messy things, so as not to worry her.
Unexpectedly, this scene was captured entirely by the cameraman following Su Wanqing, and the live stream chat exploded instantly:
[Holy crap! It really backfired! Su Wanqing is so pitiful!]
Serves her right! She got what she deserved for her underhanded tactics and harming others!
[Mr. Shen is amazing! He didn't do anything, yet he had them completely under his thumb!]
Mr. Zhou's attitude clearly showed he was intimidated by Mr. Shen's abilities!
Mr. Shen even reminded her not to go west; that shows his magnanimity! I couldn't do that; I'd be hoping the other person would suffer!
[I now completely believe that Mr. Shen is a reclusive master. His aura and magnanimity are simply amazing!]
