Huang Xiaolong and Ying Aoshan had spent some time together at the villa. As dusk was approaching, the banquet arranged by the Lin Family was ready.
In the banquet hall, a grand feast had been set up and all kinds of delicacies were being served continually.
Huang Xiaolong was eating with gusto, albeit a little impolitely. Ying Aoshan smiled faintly and dutifully served food and drink to Huang Xiaolong, adopting completely the posture of an obedient wife.
Watching from the side, Uncle Yun felt extremely gratified, thinking to himself, ‘Finally, our Miss has found her ideal man! This is a great honor for our family!’
Lin Zicong was secretly envying his teacher’s good fortune.
Old Master Lin and others were aware of the deep bond between Huang Xiaolong and Lin Jing. However, they were from a prominent family and would not look at things the same way ordinary people do. In their eyes, someone like Huang Xiaolong having three wives and four concubines was not at all unusual; in fact, they considered it normal, even righteous.
But those from the Lin Household were contemplating something – even a heiress from a prominent family like Ying Aoshan could only be Huang Xiaolong’s minor wife. So, who could be his major wife? And, where does Lin Jing stand amongst the many wives and concubines? Would she be at a disadvantage in future power struggles in the harem?
However, Old Master Lin was a savvy and smooth-talker, and he would never mention this in front of Huang Xiaolong. Instead, he continued to serve him wholeheartedly.
During the feast, Uncle Yun took out his phone and booked three plane tickets.
Shaanxi Province, the home of Ying Aoshan, is thousands of miles away from Binhai City. Therefore, taking a flight was the most convenient and fastest method of travel.
Huang Xiaolong didn’t have an ID card, but for Uncle Yun, buying him a plane ticket was a simple task.
“Miss, these are the tickets for tonight.” Uncle Yun said to Ying Aoshan with a smile.
“Hmm.” Ying Aoshan nodded and turned to Huang Xiaolong. “Little Long, we’re flying to my hometown tonight. It might be a bit rushed. Do you have any concerns?”
(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})
“I’m fine. I’m ready anytime.” Huang Xiaolong replied with a grin. “But, I’ve never flown before. What does it feel like to take a flight? Is it going to be scary?”
Everyone laughed at Huang Xiaolong’s words.
“Teacher, are you leaving Binhai again?” Lin Zicong asked.
“Yes. The ghosts in Binhai have almost been wiped out by me. There won’t be any supernatural incidents for many years to come, it’s kind of boring. I’m planning to visit some other cities,” Huang Xiaolong answered truthfully. “I am also going to attend the clan meeting at the Ying Family’s place. But, I’ll be back after having some fun.”
“Teacher, have a safe journey.” Lin Zicong raised his glass in salute to Huang Xiaolong.
Everyone in the Lin Family stood up and offered a toast.
After the banquet, Uncle Yun drove directly to the airport.
Huang Xiaolong and Ying Aoshan were sitting in the back.
Just then, Ying Aoshan’s cell phone suddenly rang.
Startled, she took her mobile out of her purse. Looking at the caller ID, she was surprised. “Huh? Why…why is the caller ID blank?”
“Miss, maybe it’s some kind of scam call. Just ignore it,” said Uncle Yun, laughing as he drove.
“Oh.” Ying Aoshan nodded, but she still answered the call, curious about the unknown number.
As soon as she picked up, Ying Aoshan only heard the ‘zzz’ sound of static from the other end, suggesting that the phone signal was unstable.
“Hello~~ Who is this?” Ying Aoshan asked.
Zzz~Zzz~~Zzz~~~
“Speechless. That’s creepy.” Ying Aoshan was about to hang up.
Suddenly!
“Hello~~” A cold male voice sounded from the phone; it was so eerie, it sent shivers down her spine.
“Who are you? Stop playing tricks!” Ying Aoshan was getting upset.
“You will die tonight.” The eerie voice on the phone declared flatly, without a trace of emotion. “Be careful, you will die tonight.”
Beep~~Beep beep~~Beep beep beep~~
After saying this, the caller hung up.
“I’m so annoyed. That was a prank call, warning me to be careful because I will die tonight,” Ying Aoshan pouted.
‘Hmm… When my dear wife was on the phone just now, I distinctly felt a ghastly aura… Could it be, was a ghost making the call?’ Huang Xiaolong pondered. “Could it be the same kind of malevolent spirit as the arrogant genius youngster in Binhai, possessing the ghostly technique to confuse people through phone calls or text messages?”
While he was contemplating this, Uncle Yun’s mobile phone began to ring.
Uncle Yun gripped the steering wheel with one hand and picked up the phone with the other. On seeing the screen, he said, “Huh. Mine is the same…the caller ID isn’t showing. Miss, could it be that the same person is calling to prank us?”
“Give me your phone.” Huang Xiaolong reached his hand out.
Uncle Yun quickly handed his phone to Huang Xiaolong.
Huang Xiaolong looked at the phone, which was still ringing, and a faint chilling aura seemed to be permeating from the screen.
He answered the call.
Zzz~Zzz~~Zzz~~~
Amidst the electric current noise was a nonchalant male voice, “Be careful, you will die tonight. Tonight.”
Beep beep beep~~
The caller hung up.
“Little Long, what’s going on?” Ying Aoshan was baffled.
Ordinarily, no one would know Uncle Yun’s and Ying Aoshan’s private phone numbers. Furthermore, even if someone knew, they wouldn’t dare prank call them. After all, considering their status and background, it was not something to be taken lightly.
“Not sure about the specifics. However, I can confirm this much, that was a ghost making a call,” Huang Xiaolong said with a playful smile.
Hearing this, Uncle Yun instinctively hit the brakes.
“Little Long, a ghost…a ghost called us…that’s a bit eerie. It seems like a scene straight out of a horror movie,” Ying Aoshan said with a surprised expression.
“This is known as ‘Ghost Call,’ and it’s not a particularly unusual phenomenon. It has happened many times in the past,” Huang Xiaolong explained. “For instance, some people get calls from ghosts, and the ghosts say some incomprehensible things on the phone. They either ask for help or issue warnings. Take the help calls for example. The person answering the call either calls the police or goes to the location specified by the ghost. Then the next day, their dead body is found. Or they would disappear from the face of the earth. This means that the ghost is looking for a substitute. However, there are also good instances where a ghost calls to warn about an impending disaster, urging the person to be careful and avert calamity.”
“About the ghost call, there’s a quite famous case that occurred in 2002. A passenger airplane from Treasured Island mysteriously crashed, killing over two hundred people on board. But a day before the victims’ death anniversary, the family members strangely received calls from the deceased. In the call, the voice of the deceased was slurring, only making ‘uuu uuu uuu’ sounds, followed by crying that lasted for 10 seconds…”
Huang Xiaolong’s narrative left a chilling atmosphere in the car.
“Little Long, what are you implying then…The ghost called me and Uncle Yun just now…what was its intention?” Ying Aoshan piped in, her voice trembling.
“Hmm…let me think. The ghost knows your phone numbers…wait, you guys left your phone numbers while booking the plane tickets today, right?” Huang Xiaolong asked.
“Yes, Young Master Huang, we only left my number and Miss’s number. Yours wasn’t left,” Uncle Yun replied.
“Could it be, there’s going to be an accident on the flight tonight?” Huang Xiaolong pondered. “Was this ghost call a good omen? A warning to us not to take that plane tonight?”
At that moment, Uncle Yun parked the car and said, “Miss, Young Master Huang, we’ve arrived at the airport.”
