Chapter Thirty-Nine
I was dragged onto the dance floor by Atobe and forced to follow him in circles. Although I tried my best to follow his dance steps carefully, I could only rely on my extraordinary reflexes to avoid stepping on them.
It's just his feet. This look must be very funny in the eyes of others. I thought angrily. If I had known better, I wouldn't have come to this crappy dance, and I would have just asked the class monitor to bring me the gift. I'm really asking for trouble.
"You are not a gorgeous woman, what are you thinking about that is not gorgeous?" Atobe was obviously displeased with my performance.
"No!" I looked away. I already told you that I can't dance anymore. You forced me to do it yourself, and you brought the shame on yourself.
Atobe narrowed his eyes, lowered his head and lowered his voice and said: "Narcissistic Narcissus? Is this the uncle you see? Huh?"
"Haha! That was just a joke. Atobe-kun shouldn't be so stingy!" I knew it was because of this.
"If it was just a joke, of course I wouldn't be so stingy. But..." Atobe put his hand on my waist hard, pulled the distance between me and him as close as possible, and then whispered in my ear
: "If you dare to tease me..."
I was so excited that I dared to say: "How could that be possible? It's really just a joke."
Atobe chuckled with satisfaction: "That's good."
The strength in our hands relaxed, and the normal distance between us returned to us.
I breathed a sigh of relief and lowered my head. This kid is not simple! He can have such a strong momentum. I was almost suppressed by him. A person who crawled out from a group of old foxes should not be underestimated. Look.
Come on, I still underestimated him. This guy is really not an ordinary junior high school student.
The child secretly looked up at the corners of his raised mouth. Fortunately, Atobe was not from the Ito family. If Mie Ito was like him, I would have died several times. I underestimated the world.
Are you in junior high school? Or are the heirs of these big families too precocious?
Suddenly I felt a murderous aura coming from the second floor. I looked up, but saw nothing. I looked back a little confused, who was on the second floor?
"What brand of perfume are you wearing?"
"Ah?" Atobe's question suddenly interrupted my thoughts. "I never use that kind of thing."
"Then where does your smell come from?"
I was startled and raised my head: "Does it smell?" No way! Someone had obviously taken a shower when I came here. It's over. This time, my image was completely ruined and I couldn't see anyone. My heart sank and I subconsciously
I wanted to step back, but Atobe pulled me back.
"I'm talking about the quiet and elegant fragrance on your body. Where did you think of this ungorgeous woman?" Atobe smiled in my ear.
"Atobe Keigo!" I raised my head and glared at him. At that moment, he pulled me around in a circle. I didn't recover and couldn't keep up with him, so I stepped down and stepped on him hard.
on his feet.
"Humph!" Atobe groaned and held my hand tightly. Although the dance was smooth, his face turned red.
After more than ten seconds, he regained his breath, glared at me and whispered through gritted teeth: "You did it on purpose!"
"No!" I immediately denied and tilted my head to one side to hide my smile.
I really didn't mean it, but I didn't expect high heels to have such an effective effect on people.
"A woman who is not gorgeous..."
Atobe wanted to say something more, but the music just stopped. I pushed him away, took a step back, then held up my skirt and pretended to salute. Before he could react, I touched the soles of my feet and ran away!
I dodged left and right in the crowd, and quietly sneaked back to the wine table, but I found that the glass of red wine placed on the table by Atobe was missing. Has it been taken away by someone? I looked around.
"Are you looking for this?" Renzu walked up to me holding a glass of red wine.
"Nenzu? Aren't you going to go dance with your pretty sister? There are a lot of beauties here today." He said while taking the red wine from Renzu.
"There is someone right in front of me, so why should I look for him?" Renzu smiled evilly.
Ignoring his provocative look, I replied nonchalantly: "It's a pity that I don't know how!" Then he turned and walked towards the table where the food was placed. Drinking on an empty stomach is not good for your stomach!
Having watched Atobe and I's "dance performance" just now, Ninzu knew that what I said was not a lie.
"Atobe came to you just now to talk about his title, right?" Shinobu followed. He must have thought of the title Narcissistic Narcissus again, and I heard a chuckle from behind.
"I was just joking, I didn't know he was so stingy." I mumbled a little dissatisfied. Atobe's momentum was really scary just now, and now I feel a little uncomfortable thinking about it.
"Actually, it's not that he is stingy, it's just that almost all the people who came today are heirs of major families, so once his name spreads, don't even think about getting rid of him."
"It's so serious!" I turned around and saw Renzu smiling happily. "Aren't you worried at all? You read that sentence!" I reminded him "kindly".
"It doesn't matter, my wife is still with me anyway!"
Looking at Renzu who was smiling so heartlessly, I couldn't help but roll my eyes in my heart. This cunning fox.
I was about to reach out for the cherry on the table, but suddenly I found a little monster in the corner of the table stealing a piece of cake. It seemed to sense that I was looking at it, and it stopped and looked at me, and we just sat there quietly.
After looking at each other for two seconds, the little monster suddenly picked up the cake and quickly slipped under the table. That monster was Natto Monk, right? A very weak one.
, a monster with almost no attack power. When it looked at me just now, I could clearly see cold sweat and natto coming out of its head. But why is it here? Logically speaking, it shouldn't be here based on the Feng Shui of the Atobe family.
It’s only natural that a monster will appear! If it was in this house from the beginning, then there’s no reason why I couldn’t find it when I lived here for a week. Did it just come here recently?
"What's wrong?" Renzu asked.
"Something's wrong. I just saw a monster."
"Monster!" Renzu's expression suddenly changed.
"It's just a little monster. It has no attack power and won't hurt anyone. At most, it just steals some food." I explained to him patiently.
"Monsters can also steal food?" Renzu was a little confused.
"Monsters don't need to eat!" I glanced at him, stuffed a cherry into my mouth, drank the wine in the glass, and then turned around and left.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Go find Atobe!" He walked towards the crowd without stopping and without looking back.
When I found Atobe, he was talking to a boy with brown hair who looked like a high school student. I winked at him and motioned for him to come over.
"You're not a gorgeous woman, what do you want from me?" Atobe came over with a wine glass in hand.
"Atobe, did anything happen to your house after I left, or did anything strange come in?"
"Why do you ask this?" Atobe frowned a little dissatisfied.
I looked around, moved closer to him and whispered, "I just saw a monster at the dining table."
After hearing this, Atobe's face immediately changed. I continued: "Although Natto Monk is just a little monster with no ability and will not hurt people, I have seen the Feng Shui of your home, and it should be impossible for you to have these things.
.So I wonder if it just appeared recently."
Atobe calmed down quickly after hearing what I said.
"If it's just a little monster like this, then there shouldn't be any problem!"
"Of course there is no problem if it's just a little Natto monk, and you can even ignore it. But..." I changed the topic and said seriously: "If there are monsters here, it means it's abnormal. If there is a little Natto monk, it's very serious."
Other monsters may appear. If there is something in the house that attracts monsters, it will be troublesome. More and more monsters are likely to come here. Moreover, Natto Monk's monster power is very weak and his spiritual power is slightly better.
Anyone at all might see it.”
Atobe's face turned a little pale, and the fingers holding the wine glass tightened. He thought about it carefully and said, "Nothing special has been put in recently, and nothing special has happened."
"That's weird." I thought for a while and said, "Let me go nearby and have a look! I'll look for any other monsters by the way."
"Well! Sorry to trouble you. And..."
"I know, I won't tell anyone else!" After saying that, he waved his hand and turned around and walked out.
Because I have lived here before, I am quite familiar with the Atobe family's house. I searched around inside and found nothing strange. I quietly walked from the hall to the garden, thinking about it while looking around. Suddenly a shadow came from
My feet flashed by, and I quickly grabbed the little monster that was about to run away. The little monster kept trembling in my hand, and I was so scared that I was sweating. I squatted down and put it on the ground.
Then he asked with a smile: "What's your name?"
"Ping, Pingqing... Sir, please let me go..."
"If you want me to let you go, you can, but you have to answer a few questions first." Suddenly I felt like a weird uncle who kidnapped little Luo Li. Sweat!
"Excuse me, sir."
I cleared my throat and started asking: "Why are you here?"
"I was attracted by the fragrance of soul-inducing incense, sir."
Soul-inducing incense? I remember it seems to be a kind of incense that can make monsters feel very comfortable. This kind of fragrance cannot be smelled by humans and animals, but for monsters, it is equivalent to human opium. Why does the Atobe family have this kind of fragrance?
Plant something?
"Where is the soul-inducing incense?"
"Sir, please come with me!"
Ping Qing carefully led me around a large rose garden, then around a fountain, and finally to an inconspicuous corner of the garden. Because I caught all the little monsters I saw on the road, I finally reached my destination.
It is already a small team of six or seven monsters.
"This is it, sir!" Ping Qing pointed at a small pile of gravel and said to me.
I stepped forward and carefully pulled away the gravel with a fan. The little monsters around me couldn't help but take a deep breath and showed a very intoxicated expression. Hidden in the gravel was a hollow wooden ball.
Inside is a black pill-like thing. This is the soul-inducing incense! I’ve only seen a rough introduction in books before, but it’s not the real thing.
This was the first time I saw it. I just took it in my hand and wanted to find a place to destroy it. Suddenly I felt a heavy evil spirit coming towards my face. I immediately flicked my foot and stepped aside. At that moment, I just
The place where he was squatting had turned into a pit the size of a football, and the little monsters that were originally surrounding him were scattered in all directions.
