Invincibility Begins with a Super Fairy Manny

Chapter 356: Chapter 356: Tragic Death in the Bar (8th Update)

There was no response.

The girl in the red dress seemed to have fallen asleep.

Zhang Dong reached out his hand and placed it on the girl’s shoulder. Inhaling the faint scent of her hair, he smiled and said, “Miss, have you drunk too much? Let me take you home!”

As he said this, he forcefully pulled on the girl’s shoulder, wanting to see what she really looked like.

And then he saw an incredibly smooth face.

Zhang Dong let out a deafening scream.

Because although the skin was delicate enough to break at the slightest touch, it had no features.

And just as Zhang Dong screamed,

the face suddenly split open, just like the Slit-Mouthed Woman in the movies, and it devoured Zhang Dong’s head whole.

Crunch.

Zhang Dong’s head was crushed to pieces, and his body collapsed to the ground.

The next day.

The news that the famous up-and-coming actor Zhang Dong had died tragically in a bar restroom sent shockwaves through Xiangjiang.

Upon hearing the news, Gong Xiaoqing shivered uncontrollably.

If it hadn’t been for that man, she would probably have been the one to die.

After thinking for a long time, she suddenly got up.

“Miss Gong, where are you going?”

“To see Master Song Yi!” Gong Xiaoqing said in a grave voice.

But when she arrived at the hotel where Song Yi was staying, Gong Xiaoqing suddenly hesitated.

She didn’t even know his name; would it be impolite to visit him so abruptly?

While she hesitated at the doorstep,

Xue An emerged from the hotel with An Yan and his two daughters.

Xue An planned to take them shopping.

Not shopping while in Xiangjiang would be like not having come at all.

Just as they walked out, they saw Gong Xiaoqing.

At that moment, Gong Xiaoqing also saw Xue An and an expression of extreme surprise appeared on her face. She quickly approached him, saying, “Mr. Xue!”

Xue An gave a faint smile, “What a coincidence, huh?”

Gong Xiaoqing noticed An Yan by his side.

However, because Xue An used a spell to obscure her appearance, Gong Xiaoqing couldn’t tell she was very beautiful; she just felt that the woman’s features were quite ordinary, but her eyes were truly stunning!

She then nodded. “Yes, are these…”

“I’ve brought my family to Xiangjiang, we ought to have a look around!”

“These are your family members?!”

“Yes! These two are my daughters!” Xue An said with a smile.

Gong Xiaoqing nodded in surprise; she had not expected Xue An to have a family. Her reaction was quick, though, and she promptly smiled, saying, “Mr. Xue, you have an enviable family. By the way, I still don’t know your name.”

Xue An chuckled, “My last name is Xue.”

“Mr. Xue, I truly thank you for yesterday. I just read the newspaper, that Zhang Dong…”

“He’s dead, right?” Xue An said indifferently.

Gong Xiaoqing nodded solemnly, “So Mr. Xue already knew!”

“No need to watch the news for that; he was definitely not going to live past three days. I just didn’t expect him not to last even one,” Xue An remarked.

He had immediately noticed that something filthy had attached itself to Gong Xiaoqing’s fate. This thing was different from the demons and curses that usually cling to people.

It acted directly upon one’s fate.

Fortunately, Gong Xiaoqing’s fate was still relatively strong, so she could hold on for a few more days.

Once transferred to Zhang Dong, however, due to his years of indulging in pleasures, his fate had weakened significantly.

So he was killed by the curse that very night.

It could be said that he brought it upon himself.

Gong Xiaoqing nodded with a pale face, “I really must thank Mr. Xue for stepping in to save me!”

“Heh, it was nothing, but as for you, the one who cursed you must be quite skilled. Someone is definitely out to get you!”

After saying that, Xue An, with An Yan and the others in tow, prepared to leave.

Gong Xiaoqing stood rooted to the spot, her expression changing. Then, clenching her teeth, she followed them.

Now terrified, she felt safe only when by Xue An’s side.

“Mr. Xue, why don’t I be your guide? I am a native of Xiangjiang and know where to find the best stuff!” Gong Xiaoqing offered.

Upon hearing this, Xue An glanced at An Yan.

An Yan smiled and nodded, “In that case, we’d be troubled by Miss Gong’s assistance!”

Gong Xiaoqing was overjoyed, “Not at all, not at all! It’s my pleasure!”

Jinyuan Building.

The most high-end shopping destination in Xiangjiang.

Gong Xiaoqing, wearing sunglasses, led the way, with Xue An’s family strolling behind her.

Clearly very familiar with the place, Gong Xiaoqing knew every store like the back of her hand.

“Mr. Xue, this is the most upscale and luxurious gold store in Xiangjiang. Its founder is a man by the name of Zhou Xiaofu. Many performers, including myself, buy their jewelry here!”

Xue An nodded, then led An Yan inside to have a look.

At that moment, the jewelry store wasn’t very crowded.

By a jade display, a man and woman stood,

the girl clinging to the man’s arm, acting coquettishly.

“I really want this Jade Pendant!”

The man looked hesitant, “That’s over ten million! Is a jade pendant really worth so much money? How about I buy you a gold necklace instead?”

“No, I want that piece of jade!” the girl said with a voice so sickly sweet it could kill.

Just as Gong Xiaoqing entered the jewelry store, the coquettish girl suddenly froze.

Gong Xiaoqing also recognized the girl, her expression darkening, “Si Jin!”

Gong Xiaoqing and Si Jin were both signed to the same entertainment company.

The two were from the same generation, and at first, their relationship wasn’t bad, but as Gong Xiaoqing’s fame grew, Si Jin began to look for trouble without reason.

Their relationship became increasingly distant and hostile.

Gong Xiaoqing never imagined that this girl, who appeared so pure and ice-like on screen, would act so flirty with a man old enough to be her father for the sake of a jade piece.

At this moment, Si Jin felt a panicky sense of guilt flashing through her heart.

She had only bribed Long Guanyu to curse Gong Xiaoqing the day before, not expecting to run into her on the street the very next day.

But looking at her radiant appearance, she didn’t seem like someone on the brink of death.

Yet, upon seeing Xue An beside her, Si Jin’s heart stirred and she sneered.

“Oh, isn’t this the big star Gong? What’s the matter? Free time on your hands, so you’re out shopping with a man?”

Her words were laden with the strong intent of framing.

Gong Xiaoqing’s face darkened, and she said coldly, “Enough with the nonsense. This is Mr. Xue, my savior. I’m here to guide his family. As for this gentleman, if I’m not mistaken, you must be Mr. Li Hou, right?”

Li Hou chuckled with self-satisfaction, wrapping his arm around Si Jin, “That’s right! Miss Gong, when I was chasing you, you kept rejecting me, so I had no choice but to settle for your junior sister!”

Upon hearing this, Si Jin’s face turned pale, and her eyes filled with hatred when she looked at Gong Xiaoqing.

Why does this woman always get the best of everything? Even the man who couldn’t get her turns to me instead?

Gong Xiaoqing watched coldly, her mind filling with doubts.

Could it be Si Jin who has cursed me?

At that moment, as if on purpose, Li Hou called out to the sales associate in an overbearing tone, “That Jade Pendant just now, I’ll take it! Wrap it up!”
