my contract husband

Chapter 2 Three Drops of Blood
This night, because the dream was different from usual, I suffered from insomnia again.

The reason for using the word again is because I suffered from insomnia every night before this strange dream.Those nights that made me heartbroken were all because of the arrival of this dream, which drove all my bad emotions to a dark corner, but now, it said that it will not come again in the near future, and I felt relieved. Looking for someone—to accept this evildoer.

After teaching Zhou Ran, I was in a daze, and a gentle and generous hand was placed on my forehead.

"A Li, your complexion is very bad."

I dodged that hand and said, "Mr. Zhou, I'm fine."

"No, I've been observing you for a long time. Are you still injured? Do you need to go to the hospital for a checkup?"

Zhou Chenkun was the one driving the red Maserati who hit me. That day his car was borrowed by someone else and given to him. The brakes were a little loose, that's why he hit me.

"It really doesn't matter," I looked at my watch and said to him, "It's 280 yuan in total, Mr. Zhou."

"Okay, you wait." Zhou Chenkun went to get the wallet, I supported my forehead, and the specious voice in my dream lingered in my head all day long.

Halloween——

I saw the calendar at the door, and there were less than three days left.

What the hell should I do.

"Zhongli, Zhongli?"

"Ah," I came back to my senses in a daze, smiled awkwardly, took the money and said, "Then, see you next week."

"it is good."

Walking out of the villa, I looked up at the noon sun, why is it not hot at all, it is so cold.

After taking a taxi and leaving, I was still in a daze, and the TV station was broadcasting a piece of news——

"Gossip on time at thirteen o'clock, my city's magic fortune teller is so clever, it hit the falling rock with one word, and saved dozens of children's lives..." I suddenly sat up straight and said to the driver, "Master, do you know where this magic fortune teller is?" ?”

"I know, but it's a little far away."

"It doesn't matter, just dial the watch!"

"But miss," the driver lowered his voice, and said, "However, I heard that this fortune teller only looks at the matchmaker, and he rarely sees a very strange temper."

"Don't worry, my head is very round." I vowed.

Although, I don't know where my confidence comes from!
A few hours later, I stood in front of a reed house, looking at this small bridge and flowing water, I almost mistakenly thought it was the hidden place of a certain master who had gone back to ancient times.

"Excuse me, is anyone there?"

"come in."

Sure enough, let me in.

After I walked in, I was no stranger to it, and I lifted the curtain and saw the rumored weird fortune teller——

Turns out, he was a handsome young man.Sitting cross-legged in front of the tea table, wearing a suit is a bit out of place, and I can't tell what's weird.While I was in a daze, he smiled and pointed to the person in front of him, "Sit down."

"Your dream, after drinking tea, I will tell you."

I frowned and sat down cross-legged as well, thinking to myself, he really is an expert, he already knew without me saying a word.

"Please use."

He delivered the brewed red tea in front of me with a tea clip, I nodded and sniffed it carefully, it smelled weird, it seemed... It smelled like blood.

"Don't worry, it's the Herba Houttuyniae from the mountain." He said, picked up the teacup in front of him, and drank it down in front of me.

I was also relieved, raised my head and drank it, the taste...was really not that good.

"Mr. Magician, can you talk to me now?"

"Of course. But I need payment."

"Remuneration?" I repeated suspiciously, seeing a gleam in his eyes, just for a moment, and then he returned to smiling: "Yes, reward."

At first I thought it was money, so I took out my card and said, "I only brought my bank card, how much do you want?"

I don't want him to shake his head, smile faintly, stretch out his hand, spread it out, palm facing up, I frowned and looked at him, but he looked at him with an undiminished smile, nodded, hooked his fingers, and motioned for me to move my hand on his palm.

I had no choice but to do so, and then he turned the palm of my hand over and squeezed my hand. The other hand pierced my fingertips with a silver needle that he took from nowhere.

"hiss!"

I wanted to withdraw my hand in pain, but he was so strong that I couldn't pull it back even after exhausting all my strength. A drop of blood dripped on a jasper transparent box on the tea tray.

Instantly sucked and disappeared without a trace.

I felt a chill and a trick. When he let go of my hand, three drops of blood had already dripped. I withdrew my hand abruptly, stood up angrily, and said, "What are you doing!"

Unexpectedly, the fortune teller got up with the jade box and left in a very chic manner——

"The reward has been taken. On the night of Ghost Festival, someone will come to catch ghosts for you. Go back!"

"Hey! You—" He closed the bamboo door before I finished speaking.

The fingertips are still aching, is this man who looks younger than me really a fortune teller?Why, I feel like I've been calculated.

"Hiss." I shook my hand, there was no other way, who made... I was poor.

I frowned and looked at the bamboo door, but I couldn't see a hole, so I turned and left.

The driver outside was still waiting for me. I was extremely surprised. The driver saw that I came out empty-handed, and said with a smile: "Miss didn't find anyone, did she? This fortune teller is not here all year round, so many people return empty-handed... "

Once the driver said it, I felt confident again. I saw what others hadn't seen.

Perhaps, it really is the unique way he collects his rewards.

Thinking of it this way, I feel happy, and in the next two days of weekends, I also reversed my previous decadent heart and cleaned the whole house inside and out.

Lying on the soft sheets that have been washed and dried, surrounded by the smell of the sun, I stretched contentedly.

It's past twelve.

It's Ghost Festival, the fourteenth day of the seventh month, when the gates of ghosts are open and ghosts from all walks of life come out.Since I don't know what a ghost catcher needs, I don't know how to prepare, so I can only wait, which is really tormented.

I looked at the time, it was only eleven o'clock in the evening.

And the ghost catcher——

Still not here!
When I was anxious, the ghost catcher knocked on the door as if he was connected with me.

"Knock, knock, knock."
