Arc 9.15 [Chapter 190]
[The curator has treated me with great kindness, so I can't lay a hand on him. I depend on the Wang family to support you every month, so we can't lay a hand on him either.]
[If your curator was as kind to you as a mountain, how come he still made you a small museum administrator instead of promoting you to deputy curator after all these years? Your curator is just squeezing your value.]
Fang Xuelin's eyes slowly turned scarlet with the Jade Soul's words, [Even so, I cannot be unkind and unjust.]
[How can you repay your grievances with virtue? Since he has been unkind to you, why do you need to speak about him with love and righteousness? Think of your Lord Liao, think of Wen Xuyao. If you are one step late, I am afraid Lord Liao will have already become Wen Xuyao's plate of food.]
The red in Fang Xuelin's eyes deepened. [Okay. But even so, you can't suck it all away like the Wen family, leave at least a third of the curator's qi behind.]
[Hehehe, of course. The curator took you in, so of course I won't do it to the same kind of extent as I did with the Wen family.]
Having received the Jade Soul's promise, Fang Xuelin then nodded his head in reassurance.
The Jade Soul said: [Although Liao Sufan is not bad, you will find that Liao Sufan is just a mere mortal.]
[What are you saying?] Fang Xuelin frowned.
[I advise you to preserve your chastity first. Your sinful destiny is Liao Sufan. Your true love has not yet appeared.]
Fang Xuelin shook his head: [No, he is. I have liked him for four years. Who could attract me more than him?][Hehehe, if you don't believe me, then do as you please. When I eat your curator's aura and qi tomorrow, you will have the ability to charm people with your golden pupil.]
[Really?!] Fang Xuelin's eyes lit up with excitement, [Great, then we'll go to the antique market first thing tomorrow morning to find a body for you before visiting the curator's house. Liao Sufan asked me to go to his house today to get the money for compensation, and I want to get close to him.]
[Oh, you're quite calculating. I didn't expect that the seemingly innocent Young Master Fang would have such a mind. When you get close to him, you can use the charm in the golden pupil, and then, you can make him do whatever you want him to do. Are you happy?]
Fang Xuelin's face reddened and he smiled awkwardly, [I am also forced to calculate by this luck. Everyone is coming to calculate me, and as you said, how can I repay a grudge with a virtue.]
[Haha, it's good that you've figured it out, worthy of the master I chose.] The Jade Soul laughed and looked down at the black qi mass that was frantically surging around Fang Xuelin. It laughed once more and fell silent.
It was already late in the day, so Fang Xuelin gathered up the broken jade stone that had fallen on the ground and went back to his room to rest.
Early the next morning, Fang Xuelin spent 500 teal to buy a nice jade pendant for the jade soul in the antique street.
He walked to the curator's house and hesitated for a moment.
If the curator had not taken him in as caretaker of the museum, he would still be in the streets.
[What? Are you hesitating again?] The voice of the jade spirit surfaced again.
Fang Xuelin nodded, [Why don't we look for another house?]
