Chapter 29: The Beautiful Female Ghost Behind It

When the plane arrived at Tianjin Airport, it was already evening. I was very hungry, so I hurriedly walked through the airport corridor, intending to have dinner in the airport lobby. However, I was suddenly stopped by someone.

I always resist contact with strangers, and when I am suddenly pulled, I push away the person who is holding me without thinking, but I hear a familiar “ouch.”

I turned around in surprise, and it wasn’t Qin Huai, who else could it be?

But before I could greet Qin Huai, he had already punched me in the chest and then pretended to be angry and said, “If it weren’t for my steady footing, you would have definitely been pushed over. You’re good, Chen Chengyi, you don’t look where you’re going, right?”

I laughed heartily, grabbed Qin Huai by the arm, and punched him in the stomach before saying, “You think I’m like you, constantly checking out girls with my eyes and not even afraid of hitting a pole?

“Well, you dare to slander me like that! I was going to treat you to a big meal, but now I’m not. Let’s go to a street stall.” Qin Huai’s mouth is so quick-witted that it’s not ordinary.

We laughed and joked our way out of the airport. Qin Huai went to get his car. This kid and Su Rou both like BMWs, but the difference is that Qin Huai is more “flirtatious” and bought a BMW sports car.

As soon as we got in the car, Qin Huai said, “Forget it. In view of our friendship of more than ten years, tell me, what kind of big meal do you want to eat?”

“Goubuli buns.” I said with a smile.

“Chengyi, tell me, when did you fall so low? Dog-not-to-be-missed buns are a big meal for you? Fortunately, you met me, who is handsome, rich and compassionate. Come on, buddy, let’s go eat a real big meal.” Qin Huai said while putting on his sunglasses.

“I’ll just eat the Goubuli buns,” I said with certainty. I can’t forget how many years ago, one night, my master and I came to Tianjin like this, and I ate a lot of Goubuli buns, but then my master threw up, and I was very upset.

But now I would rather throw up a thousand or eight times. Where is my master?

“Okay, let’s buy two authentic Goubuli buns for you to eat first, and then we’ll go have a big meal.” Qin Huai said in a soft voice. Seeing that I was silent, Qin Huai called out again, “Chengyi, what are you thinking about?”

“Oh,” I smiled and looked at Qin Huai, and then said, “I was thinking that only a fool would drive with sunglasses on when it’s dark.”

“Fuck, you know nothing. This is called style, you traitor. You have lost the heart to pursue the realm. Back in the day, our Cui Jian style led the trend of many children in the hutong courtyard.” Qin Huai said to me while driving, looking down on me.

I didn’t say anything, just smiled. I thought back to the old days, but now I’m afraid of the old days because in the passing of time, there are things I dare not touch.

After a good meal, Qinhuai and I sat in our reserved hotel room, a pot of tea in hand, and we started chatting.

In fact, it had been almost a year since I had last seen Qinhuai. At the age of 30, everyone is busy with their lives.

“Xuanlin really can’t think straight. Tell me, if he becomes a doctor, doesn’t he want as many nurses as he wants? That’s much more novel than a female doctor.” Qin Huai sighed after hearing my story about Xuanlin.

It’s just that this kid has a slightly peculiar way of looking at things.

“I mainly want to tell you about An Yu’s experience. You’re always hanging out with girls, and you don’t know how much karma you’ve accumulated. Why don’t you wake up?” I said to Qin Huai, pretending to be serious, but in fact, I was mostly joking. Qin Huai is a playboy, but he’s definitely not a scoundrel. He’s a flirt, but he doesn’t do much in real life.

Sure enough, in the face of my words, Qin Huai was not convinced and said, “Come on, Chen Chengyi, compared to your romantic university and romantic high school, I am a five-star youth! Besides, I have always had a flower in my heart, waiting to be picked.”

I lit a cigarette in silence. I knew who Qinhuai was talking about. It was Ruyue, right? If this were a normal friendship, there would be some awkwardness, but Qinhuai and I wouldn’t be like that. The reason I was silent was because I didn’t know what to say.

If this kid thinks I’m showing off or doesn’t care about Ru Yue, won’t we have to fight? Anyway, when we were young, we didn’t do anything but fight and make up.

Sure enough, when Qin Huai saw me silent, he snatched the cigarette from my mouth and yelled at me, “Chen Chengyi, tell me, what are you better than me? Are you more handsome than me? Do you have my style? Do you have my temperament? Do you have my grace? What do you think Ru Yue sees in you? You just took advantage of her when she was young and naive, didn’t you? I can wait. If she spends some time with you, she will realize that you were a pervert when you were young, and then she will come to my arms.”

“You’re the one with the perverted nature. Anyway, I hope you and Ruyue will be happy, you know?” I took out another cigarette and lit it. Qin Huai and I really didn’t need to say anything else. One simple sentence had already expressed my thoughts, and Qin Huai understood.

The two of us were silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled at each other, and then asked together, “What do you say…”

Then we laughed for a while, and I said, “You tell me, why were you waiting for me at the airport?”

“You’re not kind, but that kid Su Rou is kind. He called me to tell me. Am I a good friend? I dropped the phone and rushed over from Beijing. It was a real rush.” This is how Qin Huai is. If you ask him a question, he can give you a long answer.

“That’s because I was only in Tianjin to take care of a small matter, and I wanted to let you know when I went to Beijing to look for you.” I explained briefly. Of course, I was also moved, but I wouldn’t say thank you to Qin Huai, because I would have done the same thing if I were in his shoes.

Our friendship is engraved in each other’s bones.

“You’re always so secretive. Come on, tell me. What are you doing in Tianjin? That’s what I wanted to ask you.” Qin Huai and Su Rou are definitely the same kind of person in some ways.

What kind of people? People who feel that their lives are too comfortable and who are bored out of their minds. They are most looking forward to something big happening to me, so that they can get involved. On the one hand, they can reminisce about their “exciting” youth, and on the other hand, they can find some excitement in their lives.

But this time Qin Huai was probably disappointed. I told him bluntly, “I came to Tianjin this time to find someone. I actually wanted to come a long time ago, but I was busy establishing myself in society and had a lot of trivial things to do. Now that I have a little free time, I came.”

“Who are you looking for?” Qin Huai asked.

“A rather mysterious person. He may have clues to Kunlun. After all, he is an old acquaintance of my master, so I thought I would come. But it’s been many years, and many places in Tianjin have changed. I don’t know if I can find him,” I said.

“It’s okay. I still have some power in Tianjin. Let’s look for him first. If we can’t find him, I’ll think of something else.” Qin Huai said with a smile.

“Don’t worry, I won’t be polite to you,” I said calmly.

“When are we going to go look for him? I love mysterious people the most.” Qin Huai was even more excited than I was.

I looked at the time and said, “Let’s wait until late at night. In fact, I don’t know if the rules have changed over the years, but I still want to go and take a look today.”

Qin Huai was startled, but he was also extremely excited and said to me, “Late at night? You’re not going to look for ghosts, are you? Take me with you. I like beautiful female ghosts the most.”

“Really?” I asked with raised eyebrows.

“Nonsense, I dream of meeting Zuxian, the beautiful ghost in A Chinese Ghost Story.” Qin Huai said with a longing look, except that his eyes were not pure enough, and he was lecherous. In addition, he could wipe the saliva from the corners of his mouth with a napkin.

“Oh, that’s true, she is very beautiful.” Then I lowered my voice and said to Qin Huai, “Do you know that hotels are generally not clean? You also know that I have a third eye. Since you like female ghosts so much, I’ll tell you something.”

“What?” Qin Huai was interested.

“Oh, there’s one behind you, leaning against you. It’s very pretty,” I said seriously.

“Oh, my God!” Qin Huai’s voice suddenly became shrill, and without saying a word, she pounced on me.
