Chapter 689: Chapter 689: The Ancestor Looks at Feng Shui

"Abbot, you may not know, but before you arrived, my two daughters suddenly developed a high fever that wouldn’t subside and they were unconscious. Now, although they seem fine, as a father, I just can’t stop worrying. I won’t be reassured until you have seen them," said the boss with a sigh of concern.

It wasn’t that Jiangli outright refused.

Behind her stood Qing Yue and Xia Xin, who followed her into the living room.

Qing Yue roamed around the living room leisurely, like an idle young master with nowhere pressing to be.

Xia Xin’s gaze, however, revolved several times around Wei Qingran’s face.

Jiangli hadn’t recognized the actress, but he had.

The Wei Qingran in front of him was not only the boss’s sister but also an actress who had been extremely popular in the entertainment industry a few years prior.

At a young age, she had won the grand slam of best actress awards, but at the peak of her career, she withdrew from the industry to get married and had seldom appeared in public since.

Yet, whenever the entertainment industry rounded up its beauties, Wei Qingran’s name was always included.

In the commentary, there were various expressions of regret about Wei Qingran leaving the industry so early.

Xia Xin, being an avid fan, had seen plenty and recognized Wei Qingran at a glance.

When boss Wei and Jiangli sat down to talk, Wei Qingran also sat down, just closer to Xia Xin.

As Xia Xin sat beside Wei Qingran, he suddenly became nervous. After hesitating for a moment, he asked cautiously, "Wei Qingran...you’re the Wei Qingran who starred in ’Qingcheng,’ aren’t you?"

Wei Qingran paused, a bit surprised, "You recognize me?"

"Yeah!" Xia Xin nodded excitedly, "Actually...you’re my idol! I really like you!"

Wei Qingran looked at the child’s face and chuckled. She hadn’t expected that after retiring for so many years, there would still be young fans who liked her.

So she started to chat casually with Xia Xin.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Wei brought the two daughters out as well.

The two daughters, one seven and the other five, were both very young, innocent, and naive, with chubby, round faces that looked highly pinchable.

It was hard to believe they had been feverish and unconscious just two days before.

"Abbot, these are our two daughters. This is the elder, Jing Yun, and the younger is Jing Hao," Mrs. Wei said as she patted the shoulders of the children, pulling them close and instructing, "Jing Yun, Jing Hao, this is the Abbot, the one who saved you. Say thank you to the Abbot."

The two children didn’t quite understand what was going on.

But hearing their mother say this, they turned towards Jiangli and in unison, with their clear and tender voices, said, "Thank you."

Jiangli looked them over and smiled faintly, "They look just fine, very well-behaved. Boss Wei can rest assured."

Boss Wei and Mrs. Wei were visibly delighted.

Boss Wei said with surprise, "Really? Then, Abbot, do you see any problems with our house?"

Jiangli glanced around and said, "Everything seems fine. Those statues of Lord Guan by the entrance, as well as the Evil Warding Pendants, are not necessary, though."

Boss Wei and Mrs. Wei seemed to have been genuinely frightened by the previous incident.

Hence, after moving here, they placed a collection of objects meant to ward off evil at the entrance.

Hearing Jiangli say this, Boss Wei awkwardly asked, "Oh, they’re useless?"

Jiangli said, "They’re just some simple craft pieces and don’t really serve any purpose. On the contrary, when you enter and see those things, they could add to your mental burden and discomfort. Generally speaking, there’s no need to buy these items for the house."

Boss Wei was taken aback, "I, I only bought them because people in the market said they ward off evil."

Jiangli chuckled, "These simple craft items don’t have any effect for warding off evil, and moreover, the placement is not quite right, making them even more ineffective. You might as well remove them."
