Chapter 24
He Qingchen's gaze retracted, his footsteps turned away from the floor-to-ceiling window, and he sat back in his chair, leaning back and stroking the five emperor coin at his clavicle.
In fact, he could have left directly just now, but he was waiting for someone, the one he was waiting for was his third uncle He Bocheng.
Sure enough, He Bocheng pushed the door open and entered shortly after.
"Qingchen, what's going on with your second uncle's matter?" He Bocheng asked anxiously.
He Qingchen was still lazily leaning there, looking up at He Bocheng, "Didn't you just hear it at the meeting, he voluntarily gave up all his equity to go to country M for retirement!"
He Bocheng frowned, "Qingchen, did something happen?"
He signaled him to open the file bag on the table, "Take a look."
He Bocheng looked at He Qingchen, did not sit down either, reached out and picked up the file bag on the table, and opened it.
He read it carefully, and his expression gradually became unbelieving and then furious!
His second brother was actually the murderer who killed his eldest brother and sister-in-law!
Not only that, he wasn't even a child of the He family at all, he was just picked up!
What's more, he made the old man fall into a coma!
"Damn it, I want to kill him, where is he!" He Bocheng burst out swearing, his eyes were red, and he strode out.
"Tsk~ No wonder Grandpa didn't let you know anything, third uncle, with this hot temper. He must be pressed onto the plane to country M now. Don't worry, he won't see the sun tomorrow." He Qingchen said.
He Bocheng stopped, turned around and looked at He Qingchen. Although his tone was indifferent, he still heard a lot of emotions from it.
No matter what those emotions were, in general, everything was under his control. He suddenly remembered what the old man had told him that Qingchen was a born leader!
At that time, he still didn't understand what his father meant, but now he knew. For so many years he seemed arrogant and unruly, but every word he said was just right. Under his leadership, the He family has taken more than one step forward.
He even suspected now that the rumor back then was not spread by He Bohuai, but was true!
He Qingchen didn't care what He Bocheng was thinking. He got up impatiently, put on his coat, and walked past the absent-minded He Bocheng, saying, "Third uncle, go take a look at grandpa." After speaking, the person left.
He Bocheng came back to his senses, thought of something, and hurriedly ran out.
But when he ran to the elevator door, he found that He Qingchen hadn't waited for him at all. When the elevator door closed, through that gap, he saw He Qingchen smile at him.
He Bocheng laughed and scolded, "This brat!" He thought that the one in his family would be good if he had half the ability of He Qingchen. Was it inherited from his own "simple kindness"?
He didn't know that at this moment, his "simple-minded" son was being surrounded by ghosts!
In the suburbs cemetery, several boys and girls were wandering around in place, and only one boy was standing to the side with a terrified look on his face, shouting at them, but no one responded to him.
His face was a little pale, probably from the fright. Even so, he still did not leave them alone.
This boy was He Bocheng's kind-hearted son, He Jiaxu!
On a whim recently, he had joined the school's paranormal society. Nothing had happened in the previous trips, so he didn't believe so much in ghosts in this world anymore. He was going to quit the society today.
But as soon as he arrived at the paranormal society, the president Qin Feng said he had heard of a new paranormal rumor today, saying that ghosts were making trouble in the suburbs cemetery recently, and several night watchmen had been scared into the hospital. Now no night watchmen could be recruited for that cemetery. They decided to go and see if this matter was true or not, so they asked him if he wanted to go.
Seeing everyone in the club full of enthusiasm, he didn't want to spoil their enthusiasm. Having nothing to do anyway, he would just accompany them on this trip, and he could talk about quitting the club when he came back.
That was how he followed them to the suburbs cemetery.
At first everything was normal, and nothing strange happened to them. Everyone was losing interest in an instant, but just as they were on their way back, strange things happened suddenly!
Originally, five boys were circling two girls while walking, but the president Qin Feng behind didn't walk anymore and started spinning around in place!
Then the girl closest to him, Zhan Tiantian, the rest of the people didn't notice at first until He Jiaxu looked back and found that the two of them hadn't kept up at all.
The few panicked then, wanting to pull Qin Feng and Zhan Tiantian, but before they could get to the two, they similarly had empty eyes and, like the others, started spinning around in place.
He Jiaxu was stunned. Although he was afraid, he would not easily abandon them. He plucked up courage to step forward, pulled them, and shouted their names loudly, but it was useless.
Strangely though, they neatly kept their distance from him, so he stepped forward again, and they retreated again, as if not wanting him to get close to them, but their movements did not stop, still wandering around the one square meter range below their feet!
Now he really didn't know what to do. He wanted to call his cousin He Qingchen, because the first thing he thought of was that his cousin grew up in a Taoist temple since he was a child, he must know some Taoists, and such things should be handled by Taoists!
But when he took out his cell phone, he found that there was no signal here at all!
His heart thudded. He was screwed now!
Forcing himself to calm down, he analyzed the current situation. First, he felt that these ghosts didn't seem to want to hurt them, otherwise they wouldn't still be alive. Second, now only he was sober, although he didn't know why, at least there was still him who could ask for help.
What he had to do now was to get out of this cemetery as soon as possible, find a place with phone signals, and call for help!
Having figured it out, he hurried towards the exit of the cemetery!
After running for a while, he finally ran out. Outside the cemetery, he looked at his phone again, and there was a signal as expected!
He quickly dialed He Qingchen's phone, praying in his heart that his cousin must answer the phone!

Yijing Creek Park.
When He Qingchen returned home, he saw that Jian Xi had already prepared the meal.
Seeing him back, Jian Xi hurried to serve the rice, "Brother, go wash your hands quickly, it's time to eat!"
He Qingchen saw the peach wood sword and flute on the coffee table, and asked her, "Did Huo Chengxi accompany you to pick them up?"
"Yeah, the airport express delivery called me this morning. I was at martial brother Liu's place, so he accompanied me there." Jian Xi brought out two bowls of rice from the kitchen and said.
