Chapter 138: Are there also playboys among zombies?

So, it started again.

Then, when this guy went to the Ying Family, he happened to take a liking to Ying Rui.

Ying Rui possessed beauty that could topple nations, and she was also the Dark Moon Corpse Emperor.

Third Master Song was smitten at first sight, then he went home and sent people to propose marriage.

It just so happened that both families had the intention of forming a powerful alliance.

Thus, the Ying Family Head, disregarding Ying Rui’s objections, agreed to the Song Family’s proposal.

This was the more detailed account of the entire incident.

“Is this Third Master Song also very popular with Female Zombies? Are there women who love him to death?”

Si Yan asked after listening.

“He certainly has a way with women. When I sent people to inquire about him, I learned that there are indeed women obsessed with him. These women must have had something go wrong with their brains after turning into zombies, to actually like such a scumbag.”

The Old Zombie said.

She didn’t know where she learned the word “scumbag.”

Si Yan looked at her: “Among these women, are there any with good status, position, and strength?”

The Old Zombie thought for a moment: “It seems there is one, a woman from the Nangong Family. I don’t know what kind of madness she’s caught, she’s madly in love with Third Master Song, but Third Master Song is indifferent to her and doesn’t dare to provoke her.”

At this point, the Old Zombie suddenly remembered something.

Her eyes lit up.

“I remember! That woman is called Nangong Wan’er, and she’s a natural Resentful Body, most skilled in curses. Mr. Si Yan, do you think it could be her?”

The Old Zombie stood up abruptly and asked Si Yan.

Si Yan smiled: “According to this deduction, it should be her.”

The Old Zombie took a deep breath and looked at Ying Rui again: “Miss, I never thought it would be her!”

Ying Rui was equally surprised.

For over a month, Ying Rui had been wondering who had cursed her.

But no matter how much she thought, she couldn’t guess.

The Ying Family certainly had many rivals.

But those who could truly be called enemies, with deep-seated hatred, were not many.

If they were merely rivals, they wouldn’t go to such lengths to deal with her.

She was currently arranged by the Ying Family Head to marry into the Song Family. Once something happened to her, and the Ying Family later found out who did it, the perpetrator would very likely face a joint attack from two Zombie Families.

Therefore, neither Ying Rui nor the Old Zombie had any Clues or leads.

Yet, she never expected that with just a few words of guidance from Si Yan, the person who cursed her was found!

It was so easy that Ying Rui found it hard to believe!

“Miss, thanks to Mr. Si Yan, if it weren’t for his step-by-step reminders, we probably wouldn’t have been able to find the culprit even after several more months!”

The Old Zombie said excitedly to Ying Rui.

She also knew that finding the person who cursed Ying Rui was entirely due to Si Yan.

Even though Si Yan was asking questions the whole time, without his questions, they would never have connected it to Nangong Wan’er.

An unrelated person, if not for Si Yan’s reminder, they wouldn’t even have thought of her name.

Ying Rui couldn’t help but look at Si Yan. In her eyes, Si Yan, as a human, already had a mysterious veil over him.

The last time he healed her injuries, she was very grateful to Si Yan.

Because Si Yan showed her enough respect during the healing process and didn’t take advantage of her at all, after being healed by Si Yan last time, she also developed a hint of respect for him in her heart.

This time, Si Yan healed her again.

Not only that, Si Yan could even dispel curses.

Now, he effortlessly guided them to find the mastermind!

Such a Si Yan made Ying Rui feel incredibly wondrous!

When she looked at Si Yan, she felt as if a faint halo was cast upon him, and in her eyes, he became even more charming.

“Thank you, sir!”

Ying Rui bowed slightly to Si Yan.

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully completing a productive guided deduction, rewarding 20 Career Charm Points!】

【Congratulations! The host’s Ghoul Detective professional standard has reached 60%! Professional level has been upgraded to “Proficient,” and all abilities and skills have been enhanced.】

The system prompt sounded.

This time, by finding the mastermind who cast the curse on Ying Rui, the harvest was quite good.

And this Ying Family’s Young Miss, the Dark Moon Corpse Emperor, actually developed an interest in Si Yan!

This was an unexpected gain.

The Ghoul Detective’s professional level has also been upgraded to “Proficient.”

The Ghoul Detective profession is very useful in many situations.

For example, when encountering some difficult situations, equipping this profession often allows one to break the deadlock.

After equipping the Ghoul Detective profession, the intelligence bonus alone can make Si Yan’s brain operate much faster.

Not to mention the deduction and Clues skills of the Ghoul Detective.

After the professional standard reached proficiency, there was also a new ability: Case Solving.

The specific effect of this ability is still unknown, and will only be known after reaching over 90%, or “Senior.”

“This Nangong Wan’er, she fancies Third Master Song. Our Miss doesn’t fancy him at all. Miss even ran away from home because of him, yet she still comes to harm our Miss. What a resentful woman!”

The Old Zombie snorted again.

She was now very angry with Nangong Wan’er.

Nangong Wan’er had twice in a row cast curses on Ying Rui.

Both ambushes had caused Ying Rui to suffer terribly.

If it were for other reasons, such as seeking revenge on the Ying Family by ambushing Ying Rui, it would be understandable.

But this Nangong Wan’er ambushed Ying Rui for Third Master Song, that scumbag!

Yet, Ying Rui didn’t care for Third Master Song at all.

Not only did she not care for him, but the first time she saw Third Master Song, she felt immense disgust.

To escape the arranged marriage, she chose to run away from home.

Even so, Nangong Wan’er was still worried that she would marry Third Master Song and came to ambush her!

How could such a Nangong Wan’er not infuriate the Old Zombie?

“Sir, although we know it’s her now, she is in the dark and we are in the light. She will probably continue to cast curses. May I ask, sir, if there is a good way to deal with her?”

Ying Rui’s voice sounded.

Si Yan reached out and felt her forehead.

This sudden movement made Ying Rui a little flustered, but she didn’t make any move.

“Your strength has severely declined, I’m afraid you can’t even deal with a Ghost General, can you?”

Si Yan asked.

Ying Rui nodded: “Yes, she has many strong subordinates. If she hadn’t been unable to gauge my true strength this time, we would have had a difficult journey.”

Si Yan said: “No matter, your curse will take a few more days to completely dispel. As for the rest, we’ll talk about it after it’s dispelled. As for this Nangong Wan’er…”

At this point, Si Yan paused.

Ying Rui and the Old Zombie both looked at him.

“Leave her to me. I’ll help you deal with her, and you’ll need to cooperate then.”

Si Yan said calmly.

Leave her to Si Yan!

Si Yan’s seemingly nonchalant attitude, yet it gave off an air of ‘who else but me’.

After repeated injuries, even she had no confidence in dealing with Nangong Wan’er.

Although the mastermind, Nangong Wan’er, had been found, she didn’t even know where Nangong Wan’er was hiding!

No.

She didn’t even know what Nangong Wan’er looked like!

If the other party were to swagger up to her now, she might not even recognize her.

Where did Si Yan get the confidence to deal with Nangong Wan’er?

But thinking of Si Yan’s miraculousness, Ying Rui inexplicably developed confidence in Si Yan.

“Thank you, sir!”

Then, Ying Rui bowed to Si Yan again.

“Alright, you should rest first. This bedroom is for you. Your attendant can stay in the side room. Starting tomorrow, I’ll set up a clinic in the courtyard.”

Si Yan said to Ying Rui.

“We’ve booked all the remaining rooms. If sir feels inconvenient, we can go to other rooms.”

Ying Rui said.

Si Yan shook his head: “No need, let’s leave it like this. If I’m not mistaken, Nangong Wan’er won’t be able to resist in a couple of days.”

“Okay, sir.”

Ying Rui said.

Si Yan’s status in her heart was now completely different.

Si Yan left the room.

He checked the time; it was already afternoon.

“Xiao Lian, come and massage my back.”

Si Yan again ordered Xiao Lian, Ying Rui’s maid.

Xiao Lian obediently walked over and massaged Si Yan’s back.

These ancient wealthy families were good; they even had maids to order around.

That’s why many women fantasize about transmigrating to ancient times and becoming a young lady of a wealthy family, with maids serving them handsomely no matter what they do.

However, they never considered one possibility.

Statistically, there’s over a 90% chance that after transmigrating, they would become the maid who serves others.

After all, how many wealthy families are there?
