Chapter 106: The Fight
Liu Chuxia stroked her chin, her brow slightly furrowed. “In that case, you haven’t had any contact with the ‘Master’?”
Xu Fanzhen looked at her, her face a question mark. “What ‘Master’?”
“Your Xiaobao has some connection with this ‘Master,’ but we’re not sure what exactly happened,” Li Hanyan suddenly said.
Liu Chuxia nodded. “Are you willing to stay here? At least you won’t have to move around with her anymore.”
Xu Fanzhen looked at Liu Chuxia in surprise. “You’re willing to take me in? I was originally thinking of leaving Xiaobao here. It’s better than following me. This place looks safe. That way, I can leave with peace of mind. Are you really willing to take me in? You don’t mind that I’ve killed people?”
Jiang Jiajia walked up to her and said, “Those beasts are dead, and that’s that. But you really shouldn’t have killed that woman. After all, she didn’t cause you any substantial harm.
But she was your cause. Without her, you wouldn’t have died. In that case, you haven’t actually committed a great crime. But if you want to stay in this Supernatural Affairs Bureau, I’m afraid you’ll have to form a contract with one of us. Otherwise, I’m afraid you’ll be suppressed by the formation and slowly die.”
“Form a contract?”
“Mhm, take a look,” Liu Chuxia said, handing her a piece of yellow paper.
What Liu Chuxia handed her was the revised version of the Contract of Fate Art.
Xu Fanzhen looked at the terms on it. Although it was still a bit biased towards the Spirit Master, it was a huge concession for the ghost. After all, as long as the caster attacked the contracted ghost, the ghost could break the contract at any time.
And the contract must be voluntary on the ghost’s part. Although these terms still had loopholes, they didn’t seem too restrictive.
Xu Fanzhen nodded. “I’m willing to form a contract. I want to form it with you.”
She pointed at Liu Chuxia and said.
Liu Chuxia gladly accepted, but Jiang Jiajia still wanted to fight for it.
“How about with me? She already has one ghost. I can… I… I have quite a few high-quality female ghosts on hand. I can introduce you to some.” Jiang Jiajia really couldn’t think of anything else that could move this fierce ghost.
Xu Fanzhen shook her head with a smile. “I only trust her.”
Jiang Jiajia still didn’t want to give up. “Don’t you want Xiaobao to have a mommy? I really have a lot of high-quality female ghosts here, and even ancient beauties. You can pick whichever you like.”
Xu Fanzhen had no intention of finding a partner right now. After all, the baleful aura on her was too strong for an ordinary ghost to handle. Besides, she didn’t want to go through all that trouble anymore, unless Xiaobao really wanted a mommy.
Xu Fanzhen still shook her head.
Jiang Jiajia slumped into Xiao Nian’s embrace, dejected. “She doesn’t want to be with me…”
Xiao Nian sighed at her little scheme and played along, “You’ll have one in the future. Don’t be in a hurry.”
Jiang Jiajia nodded, but she didn’t seem very enthusiastic.
Xu Fanzhen became a little awkward. “Did I do something wrong? She seems very sad.”
Liu Chuxia shook her head with a smile and said, “Don’t mind her. Come with me.”
Xu Fanzhen nodded and followed behind Liu Chuxia and Li Hanyan.
Seeing that Xu Fanzhen was really ignoring her, Jiang Jiajia became anxious. “Hey, Chuxia, you already have Ke Yan. Can’t you just give her to me?”
“It’s not that I won’t. She just didn’t choose you. Just let it go this time. You can try harder next time,” Liu Chuxia said, then took Li Hanyan’s hand and went out, with Xu Fanzhen following behind.
Xu Fanzhen turned her head and glanced at Jiang Jiajia with a hint of apology, then quickly followed.
Jiang Jiajia was extremely helpless and really a little dejected. “Such a good fierce ghost. Why did she choose Chuxia? If I had known, I would have gone with her.”
Jiang Jiajia was now filled with regret. She had been looking for some powerful ghosts for a while, and she liked fierce ghosts the most. But those fierce ghosts were either homicidal maniacs or bloodthirsty. None of them suited her.
Now that she had finally found a good one, she hadn’t even managed to get her. It was so frustrating.
Xiao Nian held her hand and comforted her, “Don’t be in a hurry. There are so many ghosts and monsters. You’ll find one you’re satisfied with eventually.”
Jiang Jiajia looked at her and pinched her earlobe. “Why aren’t you in a hurry at all? Having a powerful ghost to help us fight is so convenient. Chuxia already has two. How can you still be so calm?”
Xiao Nian held her mischievous hand in her palm and said in a gentle voice, “It’s no use being in a hurry, is it? What’s meant to be will be. Just let nature take its course.”
Jiang Jiajia felt that was true, but she was really not in a good mood now. She leaned against Xiao Nian’s embrace and closed her eyes, planning to take a nap.
Xiao Xu and Ke Yan took Xuanbao and Zhenbao to the entertainment room.
This place had been empty for a long time because everyone was very busy and had no time for entertainment. It was only after Xuanbao came that Xiao Xu remembered this place.
After that, she took Ke Yan to clean this place several times and also bought some toys that children liked, as well as storybooks and some educational books.
Because the place was big enough, Xiao Xu even had someone build a ball pit.
The bottom was padded with thick sponge, and then some safety measures were added. Finally, some decorations were added. It looked pretty good. Anyway, Xuanbao liked it very much and had to come and play every day.
It was actually Zhenbao’s first time seeing such a thing. She jumped in and had a great time playing with Xuanbao.
After the little dumpling climbed in, only her little head was exposed. She would fall from time to time and then disappear. Then Zhenbao would anxiously look for her, but every time, Xuanbao would appear behind Zhenbao, looking at her with a grin.
Xiao Xu sighed. “It’s over. I’m afraid Zhenbao is going to be played around by our little dumpling.”
“Our Xuanbao seems to like Zhenbao a lot,” Ke Yan said with a smile, looking at the two little things floating around in the ball pit.
“What kind of like are you talking about? Don’t tell me it’s that kind of love. I’ve only just become a mom. I can’t take this shock.”
“It’s just the like between friends for now. Maybe it will become love when they grow up,” Ke Yan said with a wicked smile.
“Don’t talk nonsense. No, I have to make them see each other less in the future,” she said, about to take Xuanbao out and not let her play.
Ke Yan quickly held her back. “What are you in a hurry for? You were so disgusted before. Now you’re worried?”
“I’m not a heartless person. I’ve been with her for so long. How can I not have any feelings? No, I have to take Xuanbao over.”
“Hey! What are you in such a hurry for? Even if Xuanbao falls in love with Zhenbao, are you really going to break them up?” Ke Yan said, holding her hand and pressing her down on the seat.
“I’ve only just become a mom. I don’t want Xuanbao to put her eyes on someone else just like that,” Xiao Xu said with a pout.
Ke Yan smiled and pinched her cheek. “I’ve only just become a mom too. Why am I not in a hurry? You big jealous pot. You’re jealous of me, and now you’re jealous of Xuanbao too. You, you. What am I going to do with you?”
“Yanbao~” Xiao Xu looked at Ke Yan and pleaded with her eyes.
“Alright, I won’t say it anymore,” Ke Yan said, holding the person and patting her back softly.
