Chapter 24 - Mommy Is Coming Home With Me! (1)

Ye Qing had been back to City S for three days now.

She finally figured something else. 

The issue with her house was – it was haunted.

It was now 1 AM and Ye Qing, sinking into her couch with her feet propped up, was snacking on an apple.

The TV was on and was now playing a horror movie, for the purpose of attracting this rumored “ghost”.

This place was like a ghost town for ghosts.

Sh*t! What were these people talking about this place being haunted?!

Ye Qing finished up her last bite of the apple and accurately tossed the core into the trash can, making a loud thud. She was still exuding a strong killing intent.

She had done so much running around in the last three days. 

The rumor that this place was haunted was spread by her previous renters.

The renters were female white collars around 27~28 years old.

Before Ye Qing rented out her place, she had met up with them. They had a good conversation, and the two renters seemed like very reliable people.

She didn’t even ask for one month’s rent deposit and first and last month’s rent. All she asked for was one month’s deposit plus the current month’s rent.

That was because she felt that these two sugar “daddies” were quite trustworthy.

Yet, it had only been a few days before her sugar “daddies” ran away, spread rumors that her place was haunted, and tossed her house key to Lost Items.

She had given them the benefit of the doubt .Perhaps, this world that she has come to really has paranormal events. Which was why she waited an entire night in her own house. 

And did she see anything? Nooooo.

Ye Qing wanted to talk to her renters in person, but they have blocked heron Wechat and were not picking up her calls, so she had no way to get in touch with them.

The rumor that her house was haunted, in the meantime, spread like a virus.

She could put up an ad to rent her place out online, but her ads were taken down by the sites’ moderators way before her future” sugar daddies” could see them.

The reason given to her was that her house was unsafe for living!

She had looked for property management companies to help her rent or sell her house for her. She even offered fees higher than the market rate, but none would take her listing. All they said to her was “We are so sorry. We don’t want to do this to you but we really have no choice in this matter, blah blah blah…”

Ye Qing even made her own flyers and posted them at the entrance of the neighboring area and the subway station. And yet, when she returned in a few hours, all of them were vandalized with the words “Haunted! Rent at your own risk!”

Something was wrong. Very wrong. Extremely wrong.

Ye Qing could feel that someone was behind all this.

But she couldn’t figure out who it was.

She didn’t think it could be the two female renters; they were probably used. 

It also couldn’t be her 18th  level removed relatives; they didn’t know the address of her house in the city.

Nonetheless, the outcome of it all was that she obviously would not be able to rent or sell her house and her only option was to live in it herself.

Because the house has already been tainted.

Ye Qing collapsed on the couch like a dead fish.

She wasn’t able to sell or rent her house in the city.

The one in the village, as it was so remote, would be a hard sale. Not to mention that that was left behind by the original owner’s parents. She didn’t even sell it during the most difficult time of her life; for sure, it’d be wrong for this fake person to sell it.
