Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 232

Sheng Nuan knew that Ji Chengzhou had returned with a red invitation and also knew he intended to drag Ji Rong into that world. As for her life or death, Ji Chengzhou clearly didn’t care.

She was a bit speechless… But Ji Rong was even more pitiful. He was clearly just a salted fish, yet he still got hit just while lying there.

However, customer service also said that, for unknown reasons, the evil spirit had already set its sights on Ji Rong’s body. So there was no way for him to avoid it. No matter what, he would be dragged into that world. Therefore, she didn’t bother with it.

Just as well, she needed to deal with that evil spirit too. If she had to go in, so be it.

Based on her previous experience, Sheng Nuan realized how useful a strong physique, handy weapons, and some necessary small favors could be. So she began preparing early.

At the same time, to make the weakling and salted fish Ji Rong a little less fragile after entering that world, she decided to pull him along for training. To force him to exercise, she told him that he had already been targeted.

Salted fish Ji Rong was terrified but ultimately decided to lie flat. Innocent and helpless, he said, “That monster is so strong, I’m definitely no match. Why bother struggling to death?”

Sheng Nuan almost choked. “I’m not asking you to fight it, I just ask you to at least not hold me back too much when I save you, got it?”

Ji Rong’s eyes flickered subtly. After a pause, he asked softly, “You mean, if we encounter danger again in the future, you’ll still save me?”

Sheng Nuan was speechless. “If I don’t save you and watch you kick the bucket, wouldn’t last time’s efforts be wasted?”

Ji Rong’s eyes immediately filled with emotion. “So you care about me that much…”

Sheng Nuan cleared her throat and waved her hand. “Well, plastic couples are still couples. If I don’t have your back, who can you count on? So… starting today, you have to listen to me and exercise well, hear me?”

Ji Rong obediently nodded. “Okay!”

A moment later, Sheng Nuan and Ji Rong appeared in swimsuits at the pool behind the villa… She wore a black one-piece swimsuit, not too revealing but highlighting her fair skin and graceful figure.

Ji Rong wore swim trunks. Only then did Sheng Nuan notice with some surprise that although he usually looked thin, once he took off his clothes, his muscles were well-defined and quite proportionate.

A typical case of looking slim in clothes but muscular when undressed…

Ji Rong glanced at her. Sheng Nuan lay on a lounge chair, holding a glass of juice, and raised her chin. “Get in the water. Are you going to swim with your mind?”

Ji Rong replied helplessly, got into the water, and started swimming.

He appeared weak, but his swimming posture was fairly standard. Sheng Nuan sat there watching.

“Come on, keep going, swim another lap…”

After a few minutes, Ji Rong pitifully emerged from the water, leaned on the pool’s edge, and looked up at her. “I have no strength left.”

Weak chicken… Sheng Nuan stood up. “Rest for three minutes, then continue.”

With that, she plunged into the water herself, swiftly swimming forward like a mermaid… In the azure pool, her fair skin glowed with a lustrous sheen, like the finest porcelain.

Her slender and graceful figure was almost otherworldly in its beauty… Ji Rong leaned against the pool, watching with a subtle raise of his eyebrow.

Moments later, Sheng Nuan climbed ashore and kicked Ji Rong. “Don’t slack off, continue.”

Ji Rong sighed and resumed swimming…

But after less than two minutes, he suddenly started struggling.

Customer service said faintly: “Host, the salted fish has cramps.”

Sheng Nuan laughed in exasperation… As expected of a weakling!

She jumped into the pool, swam over, pulled him out of the water, and dragged him to the shore.

Ji Rong leaned close to her side. As he was pushed to the pool’s edge, he looked back at her and complimented weakly, “Your skin is really nice.”

Sheng Nuan patted him. “You can’t even swim without gasping for air, don’t bother thinking about women. Be good…”

Ji Rong: ……

In the study diagonally opposite the pool, Ji Chengzhou sat in a swivel chair, watching the two leisurely enjoying themselves by the pool, his face icy and grim.

The next day, Sheng Nuan and Ji Rong went out together. Zhou Zhe drove over to pick them up and took them to the Zhao residence.

The Zhao family had some connections with the Zhou family, and Zhao Wenbo had been in a bad state recently, always saying there were dirty things in the house. The family had invited one celestial master after another, but none seemed to help.

Then Zhou Zhe told the Zhao family about Sheng Nuan.

The Zhao family was skeptical but still asked Zhou Zhe to invite Sheng Nuan over… At worst, they’d spend some money and effort; what if it worked?

On the way, Zhou Zhe cautiously asked Sheng Nuan how she charged. Sheng Nuan asked how much the Zhao family paid those celestial masters.

Zhou Zhe said amounts ranging from hundreds of thousands to over a million. Then Sheng Nuan thought for a moment and said, “One price, five million. Pay if there’s an effect, if not, it’s free.”

Nearly ten million had already gone down the drain, so without even needing to consult the Zhao family, Zhou Zhe made the decision and agreed.

Beside them, Ji Rong asked meekly, “Are you short on money?”

Sheng Nuan turned to look at him. “Didn’t you yourself say you only have a few years left to live? I have to find a way to save up some assets.”

Ji Rong: ……

He was a bit helpless. “No need to be in such a hurry.”

Soon they arrived at the Zhao residence.

The Zhao family treated Sheng Nuan, the fake daughter, with only superficial courtesy, but they were very polite to Ji Rong, the young master of a financial magnate, arranging for them to rest first.

Madam Zhao explained, “We’ve invited a master from Mount Longhu today. We’ll let the master handle it first. If it doesn’t work, we’ll trouble the young lady.”

Ji Rong still had a docile look, nodding in agreement.

Sheng Nuan had already seen the setup in Zhao Wenbo’s room. She didn’t say anything, sitting with Ji Rong and Zhou Zhe in the living room, watching the master from Mount Longhu set up his altar and perform rituals.

After starting, Master Zhang wielded a peach wood sword, dancing vigorously, chanting incantations, sometimes spitting water, sometimes spitting fire. Then he shouted sharply, stabbing fiercely toward Zhao Wenbo’s bedroom. Finally, he swiftly sheathed his sword and exhaled a long breath.

Sheng Nuan and the woman in white clinging to Zhao Wenbo’s neck both looked at Master Zhang with bewildered eyes…

Sheng Nuan clapped absentmindedly—clap, clap, clap.

Master Zhang turned to look at her. “This young friend, can you see the methods of our Mount Longhu?”

Sheng Nuan shook her head honestly. “I don’t understand, but I’m greatly impressed…”

Master Zhang looked at her condescendingly, then said to Madam Zhao, “The evil spirit in the house has been subdued, but Young Master Zhao’s yang energy is weak now, easily attracting dirty things. The family should be cautious.”

Madam Zhao was also startled by the previous spectacle. Coming back to her senses, she repeatedly thanked him, then hurriedly asked if there were any countermeasures.

Master Zhang was about to speak when Sheng Nuan asked puzzledly, “Is that it?”

Master Zhang looked up. “What else?”

Sheng Nuan pointed at Zhao Wenbo. “Isn’t that woman in white still clinging to his back… Aren’t you going to deal with her?”

Master Zhang was stunned, and Madam Zhao also froze. Zhao Wenbo jumped up. “You can see her? Can you see her? I see her in my dreams too…”

As he spoke, the woman in white hugging his neck suddenly tightened her grip. Zhao Wenbo started coughing violently as if he couldn’t breathe, rolling his eyes.

Madam Zhao was shocked, realizing they might have encountered another fraudster. She turned sharply to look at Master Zhang. “Didn’t you say it was subdued?”

Master Zhang stammered, “Y-yes… Do you not believe me and trust this little girl instead?”

Master Zhang was furious. “Fine, let her try then! Let’s see if I’m reliable or if this little girl has real skills!”
