377 Retribution
Qin Xi’s investigation was actually not comprehensive. At that time, she thought that the people from Yao Hui Pharmaceuticals would come to take revenge, but after waiting for a few days, no one came, so she gradually forgot about it.
Now that she saw Tang He, Qin Xi suddenly narrowed her eyes. She read his face and saw a few blurry figures floating beside him, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. It was only because Tang He had something blessed to ward off evil that these blurry figures could not hurt him at all.
At this point, the corners of Qin Xi’s mouth curled up. A golden light shot out from her fingertip and entered the pendant on Tang He’s neck. The pendant transformed from the Exorcism Talisman to the Yin Gathering Talisman.
In other words, not only could the thing around Tang He’s neck not exorcize evil, but it was also an evil-gathering thing. The figures that could not touch him just now were weighing down on him.
Tang He instantly felt a chill run down his spine. Moreover, he suddenly felt as if something was pressing down on him. It was very heavy, especially on his neck.
Not only that, but her arms, legs, and waist also felt many times heavy. It was difficult to walk.
Even when he walked, his speed slowed down manyfold. Moreover, his walking posture was very strange. Seeing this scene, everyone looked at him strangely. Being stared at by so many people, Tang He also felt embarrassed, and his expression darkened.
He bowed deeply to Old Madam Xia to show his respect. “I’m sorry to disturb your birthday banquet, Old Madam Xia. I’ll bring my wife back now. Please don’t take what happened today to heart.”
From the beginning to the end, he did not look at Qiu Juan, nor did he show any concern for her. It was as if they were complete strangers.
Although Qiu Juan’s body was in pain and she couldn’t move, as soon as Tang He arrived, she stopped wailing in pain. She bit her lower lip and looked at him pitifully.
On the other hand, Tang He couldn’t even be bothered to pretend to be lovey-dovey with her. For some reason, he had a bad feeling, but he did not know where it came from.
Old Madam Xia was helped to the sofa in the living room by Qin Xi and Han Shi. She said calmly, “Mr. Tang, I won’t keep you at the banquet today. You should bring your wife to the hospital for a checkup!”
Tang He was not in the mood to attend the banquet now. He only wanted to leave as soon as possible. He felt that something was wrong with his body. Even his lower body felt like it was tied to a big rock, making his forehead sweat.
Only Qin Xi could tell what was going on. She almost laughed out loud. She quickly turned her face to the side and held back her laughter.
Seeing this, Han Shi blinked at her, as if asking her what had happened.
Qin Xi briefly told him that Tang He was haunted by something, and there was a lot of it. It would probably not be long before he was crushed to death.
The birthday banquet was a buffet. All the food was placed on the table for the guests to choose from.
Of course, those who could attend the banquet were not here to eat. Instead, they were more interested in networking. Fortunately, the fruits today were all catered by Sweet Dew. There were also some preserved sweet fruits and canned food. It was a good opportunity to do some free marketing among the upper-class.
It was winter now. Although Qin Xi’s fruit trees were still bearing fruit, there were clearly not many left. Therefore, after participating in the medical exchange, she had to make a trip back to Shangwan Village.
Not only did she have to set up a spirit gathering array formation in the orchard, but she also had to see how those useless people Mu Tianzheng sent her were doing.
