After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 510

Chapter 510: Suicide
Almost as soon as the words fell, Zhouzhou swiftly plucked out a talisman from her bag and hurled it.

Yet, she was a moment too late. The girl in red vanished the instant she heard Zhouzhou’s voice, rendering her talisman useless.

Huo Ji’an puzzled, “What’s wrong, chubby girl?”

Yu Ze glanced behind but saw nothing, looking at her with confusion.

Zhouzhou’s expression grew serious, unable to rest assured. She hurriedly said, “Uncle Yu, Little Skinny Pole, don’t move. I’ll come find you. Don’t hang up.”

Unsure of her intentions, Huo Ji’an nodded in bewilderment.

Without delay, Zhouzhou looked up at Qin Ren. “Brother, could you take me to Little Skinny Pole’s house?”

“Okay.” Recognizing the urgency of the situation, Qin Ren didn’t inquire further and immediately carried her out.

Jinbao, who had been about to go foraging outside, saw them and abruptly halted, his nose twitching. With a leap, he landed on Zhouzhou’s shoulder and let out a soft “meow” while peering at her phone.

Zhouzhou gently stroked his chin. “Jinbao, do you sense it too?”

There’s spirit at Uncle Yu’s house.

Jinbao urgently let out another “meow,” urging her to hurry.

Zhouzhou nodded and swiftly dashed out with her peach wood sword from her bag.

Throughout the journey, she kept an eye on her phone, not letting Yu Ze and Huo Ji’an out of her sight, finally reaching their destination.

The hallway lights had been fixed, and with swift movements, they ascended the stairs.

It was Yu Ze who opened the door, holding Huo Ji’an. At the sight of them, Zhouzhou breathed a sigh of relief.

Concerned, Huo Ji’an asked, “Chubby Girl, what happened?”

With everyone present, Zhouzhou didn’t hide anything, saying directly, “That beautiful sister was just behind you.”

Her words sent a shiver down Huo Ji’an’s spine. Startled, he clung tightly to Yu Ze, burying his face in his chest.

After a while, realizing he didn’t know who she was, he cautiously peeked out and asked, “Which beautiful sister?”

“The beautiful sister who committed suicide,” Zhouzhou said, glancing at Yu Ze. “She was in the same crew as Uncle Yu before.”

At her words, Yu Ze instantly understood. “Wang Yao?”

“Yes.” Zhouzhou nodded.

Suicide? Isn’t that a ghost?

Huo Ji’an trembled, holding Yu Ze’s hand even tighter.

Yu Ze, comforting him, gently patted his back, his brow furrowing in a complex expression. He also wondered, “How did she end up at my house?”

They hadn’t spoken much besides acting together. Whenever he saw Wang Yao, she would quickly leave.

Not only him, but she seemed to avoid all the men in the crew.

So hearing that she appeared here, Yu Ze wasn’t too afraid. Not doing anything wrong, there was nothing he should be afraid og. He just found it strange.

Zhouzhou shook her head. “I don’t know either. Uncle Yu, may I look around your house?”

“Of course.” Yu Ze stepped aside, making room.

Zhouzhou immediately turned around, and Jinbao hopped down from her shoulder, darting around.

But after a quick search, Zhouzhou found nothing, not even outside.

Where could she have gone?

With her around, Huo Ji’an felt less scared. He leaned in and asked, “Did she know you were coming, so she ran away quickly?”

In his mind, Chubby Girl was the most formidable.

“Maybe.” Zhouzhou nodded, then turned to Yu Ze. “Uncle Yu, why don’t you and Little Skinny Pole stay at my place tonight?”

She was afraid something might happen to them.

Seeing Huo Ji’an still pale, Yu Ze didn’t refuse and nodded. “Okay.”

Zhouzhou breathed a sigh of relief and took out two talismans from her bag and gave them to the father and son. She then led them downstairs.

Curious as they descended, “Uncle Yu, didn’t you already earn money? Why not live somewhere nicer?”

According to Third Uncle, they earned quite a bit from filming.

“The lease here ends next month. There’s no refund if we leave early. I’ll find a place closer to Ji’an’s school then.”

Though not in need of money now, Yu Ze, having experienced ups and downs, had grown accustomed to thriftiness.

There were many memories of living together here, and Huo Ji’an didn’t want to leave too soon either.

So they agreed to wait until the lease expired before deciding, not in a hurry to leave.

Zhouzhou nodded at his explanation and continued holding Qin Ren’s hand as they descended.

When they reached the corner, they encountered a small black stray dog, with lively eyes but somewhat shy. It ran away quickly upon seeing them, its leg limping as if injured.

Its fur around the mouth was stained with dried blood, whether from being bullied outside or something else was unknown.

Zhouzhou frowned, feeling a twinge of pity.

By the time they returned home, it was already past ten in the evening.

It was time for the two children to sleep.

Qin Ren and Yu Ze each carried one in.

Grandma Qin was surprised to see, “Why is Little Yu here?”

Yu Ze briefly explained the situation. Xiao Lan had already mentioned Wang Yao’s matter in the afternoon, so Grandma Qin was also surprised to hear that she appeared at Yu Ze’s house.

What did she look him for?

But she didn’t understand the situation, and it was not polite to talk behind someone’s gone, she didn’t dwell on it. She nodded and said, “Just relax and stay, with Zhouzhou here, everything will be fine.”

After saying that, seeing Zhouzhou sleeping soundly on Qin Ren’s back, Grandma Qin couldn’t help but chuckle softly, “Take Zhouzhou upstairs.”

“Okay.”

Qin Ren nodded and carried her upstairs, while Yu Ze took Huo Ji’an to the guest room.

But tonight, he couldn’t sleep. Tossing and turning on the floor, he finally took out his phone. When he saw the news on Weibo, his brows furrowed even tighter.

The news of Wang Yao’s suicide was trending, but the comments below were far from friendly.

[This woman finally died. I’m tired of seeing her every day, always trying to seduce men.]

[Exactly, all she knows is to sell herself. She even got a role in Director Zhang’s film this time. Tsk tsk, I wonder which sugar daddy she hooked up with.]

[Haha, why just one? Obviously, there are many.]

[Good riddance. Stay away from our brother. Shameless woman. She even dares to claim she’s our brother’s girlfriend. Ridiculous. Can our brother even afford her?]

This was the most liked comment, and soon, more similar comments piled up, from fans of the “brother” they mentioned, all harshly criticizing Wang Yao.

He clicked into what was supposedly Wang sub-account and found a post showing her hand intertwined with a man’s, a small mole on the back of the hand identical to Peng Qixiu’s.

The moment this was posted on Weibo, it caused quite a stir. When people found out it was Wang Yao’s account, torrents of insults flooded in.

In the fans’ eyes, such a notorious woman dared to latch onto their pure-hearted “brother.”

However, Yu Ze, looking at this post, never relaxed his brows.

Suddenly, he remembered something. He had once overheard Wang Yao on the phone with someone, calling out a name, Qixiu.

Could it be that everything she said was true?
