Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 233
As soon as Master Zhang finished speaking, everyone’s gaze turned to Sheng Nuan.
Meeting Madam Zhao’s hopeful yet skeptical eyes, Sheng Nuan paused and asked, “If I take action and resolve this in one go, five million—is that acceptable?”
Ji Rong: ……
Why does this feel a bit embarrassing?
Master Zhang sneered, while Madam Zhao didn’t hesitate. “As long as you can guarantee it can be solved, no problem!”
Sheng Nuan smiled. “Good.”
She looked around and happened to see a golf club in the Zhao family’s living room. After picking it up, she walked toward Zhao Wenbo. Waving the club at the woman in white clinging to Zhao Wenbo’s neck, she said, “You find a weapon too, otherwise, don’t say I’m bullying you.”
Seeing Sheng Nuan speaking to the empty space above Zhao Wenbo’s head, everyone was bewildered. Master Zhang scoffed, “Pretending to be mysterious.”
At that moment, the woman in white on Zhao Wenbo let out a sharp laugh and suddenly lunged at Sheng Nuan… Gripping the club with both hands, Sheng Nuan swung it, using a very standard golfing posture to send the woman in white flying into the courtyard.
Under the scorching sun, the woman in white emitted an angry and painful screech, then rushed back toward the house again.
As she swooped in, all the yellow talisman papers that Master Zhang had placed on the altar were blown into the air by a gust of cold wind… In an instant, everyone’s expressions changed.
Zhao Wenbo touched his neck in a daze, eyes full of surprise and joy. “She’s gone, she’s gone! No one is strangling my neck anymore.”
Sheng Nuan was speechless. “Because she’s wrestling with me right now.”
Before she finished speaking, the woman in white had already lunged at her face… Sheng Nuan looked around, then swung the club again, smashing her toward a Bagua mirror1 hanging in the corner.
The woman in white crashed into the Bagua mirror and was instantly sucked into it.
But since the mirror wasn’t a true magical artifact, she let out an angry scream and was about to rush out again. Sheng Nuan smashed the mirror with another swing, causing the woman in white to emit a miserable cry.
At that moment, everyone in the room heard it…
Madam Zhao’s eyes widened, both terrified and excited. “Is the dirty thing eliminated? Is it gone?”
Sheng Nuan picked up the shattered Bagua mirror, hesitating a bit. “Well, I think so…”
After all, she wasn’t a professional.
Just then, a steady voice sounded from outside, “Perhaps you should let us handle that mirror.”
Sheng Nuan turned around to see three people wearing black trench coats—two men and one woman. The middle-aged man who spoke appeared gentle and scholarly, yet exuded a unique aura.
The three approached Sheng Nuan and presented their credentials. “Miss Sheng, hello, I’m Chen Qingnan, captain of the Special Investigation Division’s action team…”
Customer service exclaimed: “The power of official father has stepped in.”
At the same time, “Master Zhang” was cautiously trying to slip away but was coldly blocked by the young woman in the black trench coat.
“Zhang Youshun, couldn’t make it in the circus anymore and changed career to a fraud?”
Master Zhang’s face turned pale instantly, and Madam Zhao was dumbfounded.
So the “Master Zhang” she spent a lot of money to find actually used to be in a circus… No wonder his act was so flashy…
At the same time, Madam Zhao realized that this fake daughter of the Sheng family might actually be the one with real skills.
Zhao Wenbo, no longer the feeble and motionless figure he was before, climbed out of bed, bursting with excitement. “I’m better now, Mom! My neck doesn’t hurt, I’m not cold anymore, and… I’m so hungry. I want to eat something!”
Madam Zhao’s tears flowed immediately.
After so many days, this was the first time her son said he was hungry…
Madam Zhao politely invited Sheng Nuan and the others to the front parlor, ordered tea and snacks to be served, and then hurried off to see her son.
Ji Rong sat there sunbathing and chatting with Zhou Zhe, while Sheng Nuan sat with the three from the Special Investigation Division on the other side.
Chen Qingnan spoke in a steady tone, “Miss Sheng, the situation is roughly as I’ve described. Our country has ancient seals and divine beasts to suppress evil, but during periods of disturbance, the power of the divine beasts and seals weakens, leading to many intersections with different spaces. If we can intervene and disrupt in time, we can safely get through the disturbance period… If not handled promptly, there could be big troubles in the future!”
Chen Qingnan sighed, “From ancient times to now, spiritual energy has been thinning. There’s less and less we humans can do. The Special Investigation Division is specifically responsible for this… So I earnestly ask Miss Sheng to join us in protecting the world we live in.”
Chen Qingnan’s expression was grave and sincere. After a moment of silence, Sheng Nuan spoke, “I think I need to make it clear, I don’t know any hidden masters, nor do I understand any spells or techniques. I only perform physical exorcisms… just like what you saw earlier.”
She gestured to the golf club. “Physical exorcism, you understand?”
Chen Qingnan paused, thoughtfully considering.
It stands to reason that ordinary people are helpless against evil spirits. Approaching them would result in mental or physical influence, such as hallucinations, becoming immobilized, and so on…
But in front of Miss Sheng, it seemed the evil spirits lost their special abilities and could only engage in physical combat… and then lose!
At this point, the young woman in the black trench coat sitting next to her couldn’t hold back anymore. She frowned at Sheng Nuan, “So you don’t even have any spells or incantations? At a time like this, Miss Sheng, is there any need to keep secrets? No matter what abilities you have, if you share them with the country, the nation won’t treat you unfairly… One shouldn’t be too selfish.”
Chen Qingnan frowned and scolded, “Lin Ya!”
Sheng Nuan raised an eyebrow and smiled, “Miss Lin, do you know why I’m sitting here listening to you?”
Her tone turned a bit cold. “If it weren’t for the country behind you, what qualifications do you have to sit here and point fingers at me?”
Lin Ya was about to speak, but Chen Qingnan’s face turned completely cold. “If you don’t know how to communicate with people, then learn to keep your mouth shut.”
Lin Ya was reprimanded publicly, losing her face and blushing. In the end, she sulked and retreated. “I just don’t believe she can handle those evil spirits without any spells or incantations… The things she’s hiding could save so many people…”
Sheng Nuan glanced at her indifferently. “If Miss Lin insists on forcing me to recite a spell, that’s fine.”
Lin Ya immediately straightened up, glanced smugly at her captain, and then asked Sheng Nuan, “What spell?”
Sheng Nuan said, “Ba-la-la Little Magic Fairy…”
Lin Ya was stunned at first, then her face turned livid. “You…”
But Sheng Nuan no longer looked at her and instead turned to Chen Qingnan. “Why don’t you just get straight to the point and tell me why you’re here?”
Chen Qingnan also knew that his subordinate’s words were unpleasant. He sighed helplessly and then said, “I know that last time, Miss Sheng led several people who received red invitations to return safely from the other world. So I hope you can join us. If there’s a new red invitation incident, I hope you can go in with us… The only promise I can make is that if there’s danger we can’t handle, I will die before you.”
He continued, “I know this is unfair to Miss Sheng, but for the greater good, I had to come. If you have any requests, please feel free to mention them, and we’ll do our best to satisfy you.”
Sheng Nuan thought for a moment, then nodded. “Okay.”
Originally, her task was also to deal with that evil spirit… And behind the red invitation incidents was the evil spirit.
She said, “I respect leaders like Captain Chen who are willing to sacrifice themselves, so I have no special requests. The only one is that if my husband and I fall into danger together, Captain Chen must ensure his safety at all costs!”
Sheng Nuan didn’t notice that when she finished speaking, Ji Rong, who was chatting with Zhou Zhe on the other side of the parlor, paused slightly, his eyebrows imperceptibly raised as he glanced in her direction.
Chen Qingnan was also a bit surprised because, according to his investigation, the relationship between Sheng Nuan and her husband Ji Rong was not harmonious.
But who can say for sure about private matters.
Chen Qingnan agreed to Sheng Nuan’s request without hesitation. “I can assure you that if Mr. Ji Rong also falls into danger in another space, his safety level will be above all else.”
Sheng Nuan smiled. “Deal.”
