Chapter 210: A Secretive Deal

"What is it?" Chu Jiang finally stopped in his tracks.

Ning Miaowei jumped off the surgery bed and ran outside to pick up the old rag doll on the office desk.

"This is it. I’ve named it ‘Death’s Call.’"

Chu Jiang looked at the doll, with its stuffing showing through its belly, and asked with some confusion, "What does it do?"

Ning Miaowei fixed her messy hair and replied, "It’s simple. You smash this thing onto your target, and they will experience a ‘death’s call’ once."

"In simple terms, they will meet all sorts of accidents, even the most bizarre coincidences."

"For example, a hailstorm on a sunny day, with only one hailstone falling and hitting the target’s head exactly with its sharp end downwards."

"Interesting," Chu Jiang looked at the doll again and asked, "Does it work on ghosts too?"

"It does, but since ghosts can’t die, it can only cause some level of accidents and disturbances to them. The specific interference depends on your luck."

"Alright, I’ll take it," Chu Jiang stepped forward and took the cloth doll into his hands.

This thing is probably disposable, a kind of magical item that gets used up. So there are no ghosts inside, just some of their power or energy.

Ning Miaowei took the opportunity to say, "Let’s continue, don’t worry, I promise I won’t do anything stupid anymore."

Since Chu Jiang received the thing and the other person promised sincerely, he then cooperated with Expert Ning to continue the medical examination process.

……….

After all this trouble, several hours have passed. This woman almost wanted to thoroughly study Chu Jiang.

Although Chu Jiang didn’t cooperate with Chen Yehua as much as he did before, the results of the examination still amazed Ning Miaowei.

"Unbelievable, you’re really incredible."

"Now, you haven’t fully tapped into the power inside you. At most, you’ve only mastered less than a tenth of it. I look forward to seeing you at your peak."

Facing Ning Miaowei’s comments, Chu Jiang vaguely felt like she knew something.

"Can you estimate the approximate proportion?"

"I have no idea, really, I was just guessing," said Ning Miaowei, crossing her arms and circling around Chu Jiang. "I know you are from Chu’s Jiang lineage."

"Of course, you’re quite bold, directly revealing this truth to the world through a video."

"But it’s a pity that most ordinary people can’t discern your intentions at all. I mean, Chu Jiang, what kind of message are you trying to convey with this video?"

As Ning Miaowei asked this question, she stared intensely into Chu Jiang’s eyes, as if she wanted to see something within them.

Chu Jiang appeared calm on the surface, but internally he was a bit confused. Intentions? Message??

Hey, hey, have you misunderstood something? I only went public to protect myself, that’s all.

And if there really was any other purpose, it would be one thing: I wanted to see if my birth parents would come knocking on my door because of this video.

As a result, Chu Jiang noticed that no one contacted him nor did anyone reach out to his adoptive parents.

At this moment, when facing Expert Ning’s question, Chu Jiang thought about it in his heart and said out loud.

He calmly responded, "I don’t have any deeper meaning. I just dislike trouble. It’s better to directly show my strength and warn others than to wait for them to test me."

Of course, Ning Miaowei didn’t believe a single word of this.

"Forget it, I know you won’t tell me the truth. After all, we just met."

"This is my personal number. Feel free to contact me whenever you need." She said as she took out a piece of paper and gave it to Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang didn’t refuse since he thought that behind Ning Miaowei, there might be a Ghost Master inheritance. Otherwise, as experts in the research institute, Ning Miaowei knew information that Chen Yehua didn’t know.

After putting away the piece of paper, Chu Jiang took the initiative to leave the office.

Ning Miaowei kindly accompanied him and said, "After trying out that doll, remember to give me feedback on its effectiveness. If you’re satisfied, don’t forget to give a good review!"

"Stop with the ‘oh’, with that tone, you could become a customer service representative for a certain online store."

"Darling~~" said Ning Miaowei in a sweet and affectionate tone, reaching out her hands, trying to hold Chu Jiang’s arm, but he pushed her away with disgust.

Just at that moment, not far away, Chen Yehua and Zhang San passed by. Chen Yehua had a report in his hand, as if he was going to take the elevator.

At the moment their eyes met, Ning Miaowei immediately became serious. She coughed, retreated to the office, and conveniently closed the metal gate.

Chu Jiang, on the other hand, looked at Chen Yehua with a puzzled expression, as if he had turned into stone, frozen in place.

Since Chu Jiang also needed to take the elevator, he walked up and asked, "What’s wrong? Has Expert Ning’s image been shattered in your mind?"

Chen Yehua snapped out of it, shaking his head and saying, "She doesn’t have any image in my mind. I was just thinking about a question."

"What question?" Chu Jiang asked as they walked.

Expert Chen caught up with them, looking serious. He gazed at Chu Jiang and said, "You must answer this question seriously."

Chu Jiang signaled him with his eyes to speak directly.

"Do you engage in homosexuality?"

Luckily, Chu Jiang didn’t drink tea now, otherwise he could have sprayed Chen Yehua’s face with tea.

"Is there something wrong with your brain?" Chu Jiang asked back.

Chen Yehua’s expression remained serious. "I’m serious. I have discovered the immoral transaction between you and Ning Miaowei."

"Now I regret not being a woman. For the sake of scientific research, I would have given everything."

Chu Jiang was speechless.

"Tell me, what do I need to do for you to reveal all your secrets to me, including the secrets of the Lin Ancestral Hall?" Chen Yehua persisted.

Chu Jiang waved his hand. "Forget about it, you crazy person. I don’t engage in homosexuality. And there is no transaction between me and Ning Miaowei."

"It was purely her deliberate seduction, trying to gain something from me; I’m not that foolish, so I didn’t fall for her tricks at all."

Chen Yehua nodded thoughtfully, "So that’s how it is. You should be careful. She’s always very cautious and sometimes even I can’t understand her."

Chu Jiang muttered to himself, "Isn’t that obvious? You two have completely different personalities."

Although it hasn’t been long since Expert Ning started interacting with Ning Miaowei, it seems that Ning Miaowei is studying ghosts with a strong purpose.

If she could achieve success in her research, she would definitely feel happy and excited.

But for her, the most important thing is always what she can gain, what she can obtain. Everything else is secondary.
