This way, Jiang Xiaoli could still wait until tomorrow to make her move.
After hurriedly putting away the key, Jiang Xiaoli looked up and realized that the crow had already flown away.
“What’s so great about a little b*tch who only knows how to intimidate others?!” Jiang Xiaoli cursed. Enduring the pain, she picked up the long needle from the ground and placed it with the key, hiding it under the bed.
After doing all that, Jiang Xiaoli was finally relieved. She laid back on the bed and continued to rest.
The next morning, when Chi Jiao woke up, she realized that the production team had already rushed over.
In the dining room, Lu Xiong and Chen Wen had already woken up. However, they didn’t look too good. They appeared very weak as they lowered their heads dejectedly.
“Miss Chi Jiao.” When the couple saw Chi Jiao walking into the dining room, they hurriedly stood up and bowed in her direction.
“Miss Chi fiao, it’s all thanks to you last night. Otherwise, the two of us probably wouldn’t be able to stand here alive,” Chen Wen said politely, changing her arrogant attitude from before.
“That’s right. We’re both very grateful to you, Miss. We want to thank you properly,” Lu Xiong said politely.
Chi Jiao didn’t think too much of it. She smiled nonchalantly. “The two of you are too polite. It was just a small effort on my part. Besides, I didn’t manage to capture that female ghost. She might appear again. The two of you have to be careful.”
“The female ghost really exists?” Song Tong’s face was filled with fear. He looked rather fearful of the female ghost.
“Of course she’s real! Didn’t I encounter her too?!” Xiong Junxi muttered. His previous experience had completely terrified him. He would shiver every time he mentioned the red-dressed female ghost.
“You guys are discussing such strange matters early in the morning. From the looks of it, you are all unlucky to have been targeted by that female ghost. That’s why you almost lost your lives.” Jiang Xiaoli walked over and began to mock them.
“Jiang Xiaoli, why are you everywhere? That female ghost who is causing trouble—she must be linked to you! Why is it that whoever doesn’t like you will meet with bad luck?” Zheng Jing said gloomily.
Jiang Xiaoli had a calm expression as she chuckled. “Heh heh, you know that the female ghost is on my side, yet you still dare to talk to me like that? Do you believe that the female ghost will come looking for you tonight?”
Zheng Jing’s expression changed. “Jiang Xiaoli, I was just spouting nonsense. Do you really think you’re an impressive figure? What female ghost? I don’t believe it!”
“That’s hard to say. Logically speaking, it should be your turn…” Jiang Xiaoli liked Zheng Jing’s frightened expression. She wanted to continue agitating her, but Chi Jiao suddenly took action. A soft hand pinched her left shoulder forcefully.
Alarm bells rang in Jiang Xiaoli’s heart. She felt Chi Jiao’s hand squeeze the wound on her shoulder and she trembled.
Chi Jiao didn’t hold back. It was as if she wanted to crush her shoulder.
Jiang Xiaoli’s wound was already sore and unbearable. Now that it was being pinched, the pain made her feel numb all over!
Jiang Xiaoli wanted to scream, but she didn’t have the courage. All she could do was grit her teeth and endure it..
