Chapter 177: Voodoo Doll (Part 2)

Siyuan did not yet have a clear idea about paparazzi, but he did not have to wait until the next day. That very night, a tabloid newspaper published a bombshell story: “Rich Heiress in Physical Altercation with Wealthy Young Man, Suspected of Being Groped.”

Before the evening party was over, the newspaper was already in Siyuan’s hands. The photo on it was the moment when Ning Qingying struggled with him over the doll. It really looked like they were fighting, and coupled with the anger on Ning Qingying’s face, it was hard not to believe it.

“The imagination of these guys is just too strong.”

“So, you will become a celebrity tomorrow. Either you will be Ning Qingying’s rumored boyfriend, or you will be the notorious groper and pervert.” Boss Xiang had an expression of someone enjoying the show. “You know how it is. Do you want me to arrange for you to be her rumored boyfriend? Actually, she has a rather good impression of you. If anyone else dared to snatch her things, she would have slapped them already.”

Siyuan pursed his lips and quickly waved his hand. “No, I would rather be the groper and pervert.”

Being the rumored boyfriend of this princess truly had no benefits at all. Not only were there no benefits, but it would also bring a lot of trouble. However… the matter of the Voodoo Doll in her hand was something Siyuan had to resolve. Leaving aside that this girl, aside from being willful, did not have any major faults, just the fact that she was Ning Qingyuan’s younger sister meant Siyuan could not just stand by and watch her fall victim to Sorcery.

“When will this banquet end?”

“Soon. After the chairman of the film association gives his speech, we can leave.” Boss Xiang looked Siyuan up and down and asked with a smile, “Mr. Qi, do you have any particular favorite stars? If so, I can invite her to your room tonight.”

Siyuan burst out laughing. “What if I like Bruce Lee?”

“Haha, Mr. Qi, you are such a joker.” Boss Xiang understood that Siyuan was refusing and said no more. He just pointed at Ning Qingying. “Is there a problem with that doll?”

“Yes, that doll is a Voodoo Doll. Although I don’t know what it does yet, it is definitely not something good.” Siyuan leaned against the windowsill and took a gentle sip of Evian mineral water. “Huh? There’s no difference between glass-bottled mineral water and plastic-bottled water.”

“She lives at No. 47, Repulse Bay. It’s a hilltop villa.”

“Does she live alone?”

“I think there are a few Filipino maids as well. You’re not thinking of sneaking into her place at night, are you? There are over a dozen paparazzi stationed outside her house at all times.”

“What else can I do? I’ll be careful.”

After saying that, Siyuan pointed at the female star who had given the Voodoo Doll to Ning Qingying and whispered to Boss Xiang, “Where does that woman live?”

“You mean her? She currently lives in the Southern District. Do you want the key to her house? Her skills are quite good.”

Siyuan stared obediently at Boss Xiang. This old guy was usually very proper, but as soon as female stars were involved, he instantly became lecherous. Siyuan did not know if it was due to the specific environment or if the guy was just a chameleon.

“Just the address will do… I’m not fortunate enough to enjoy that.” Siyuan waved his hand. “I’ll be going ahead first.”

Boss Xiang knew that it was hard to win over someone like Siyuan, who was from an official background, so he naturally gave up any thought of further development with him. But pleasantries were still necessary. After arranging a car to take Siyuan away, he returned to the banquet hall and called over a subordinate. “Tonight, send more paparazzi to wait outside Ning Qingying’s house. Let’s create a big story. Old Ning will definitely thank me for it.”

“Understood.”

Boss Xiang took a sip of wine and muttered to himself, “Old Ning, I’m helping you solve this little girl’s problem. You’ll have to sell me that piece of land no matter what… hehe.”

Of course, for Siyuan to sneak into an ordinary star’s home was not difficult at all. He just activated the Invisibility Incantation and walked right in through the front door.

But still, having money was great. A young girl, living alone in such a massive five-hundred-square-meter super mansion, with a lawn and a swimming pool outside. And this was in Hong Kong, where land was extremely valuable, not like in Siyuan’s hometown where one could claim a hundred thousand acres of barren mountains without anyone caring.

“Tastes good. Where did you buy these cookies?”

After eating the cookies on Ning Qingying’s table, Siyuan found that they tasted better than any cookies he had ever eaten. Naturally, he wanted to buy some too. But when he looked at the package, he found it was covered in squiggly tadpole-like characters, not even English. As someone with poor academic skills, Siyuan could only shamefully put down the box and sit quietly on the sofa, waiting for Ning Qingying.

He waited and waited, but she did not return. Bored out of his mind, he actually fell into a sweet sleep. Not only did he fall asleep, but he also had a pleasant dream… However, he was eventually woken up by a feeling of suffocation.

When he woke up, he found his head and face covered with clothes—clothes that were warm and carried a perfume scent. Picking them up, he realized there were all kinds of clothes, including underwear and outerwear. From the adjacent bathroom came the sound of running water.

“Oh no… I’m done for.”

He wanted to sneak away, but the room door had been locked with a code lock. After poking at it for a while and seeing that it showed the last attempt, he did not dare to move anymore. The Invisibility Incantation was actually a very delicate spell. It was afraid of water, sunlight, cats, and dogs. It also had a notorious characteristic: once the Invisibility Incantation was cast, if you tried to teleport, then sorry… the location would be random because the spells would interfere with each other. If it went too far, you might even end up on the moon.

Finally, with no other choice… Siyuan could only temporarily cancel the Invisibility Incantation, then make a hand seal to teleport out. But the moment he appeared, a cry of shock came from the bathroom. “Who’s there!”

Siyuan yelled “Mom!” and scrambled to teleport out. Then, he saw Ning Qingying, wrapped in a towel, come out of the bathroom. She looked around, muttered to herself, and went back into the bathroom. A short while later, she came out wearing a large bathrobe.

She sprawled casually on the bed, picked up the Voodoo Doll placed beside her, and the more she looked at it, the more she liked it. Finally, she simply hung it on the headboard and even kissed it.

At that moment, Siyuan was standing by a riverside with blue skies, white clouds, green mountains, and clear blue waves. He looked at the natives kneeling and offering sacrifices at his feet, an awkward smile on his face.

It was probably noon here, with a time difference of about eleven or twelve hours from where he had been. Plus, these people who worshiped him as a god looked exactly like the South American natives depicted in movies. Siyuan could guess with his backside that he had transported himself to the edge of a primeval forest.

Watching these natives dance and sing around him while continuously presenting various fruits and offerings, Siyuan really had no good options apart from rolling his eyes…

Just as he was picking out some harmless fruits, Ning Qingying, who was sleeping, suddenly had an incredibly vivid dream. In the dream, a man whose face she could not see clearly was doing intimate things with her. Although she had never been in love before, many things were like having never eaten meat but having seen a pig run. So she was not completely ignorant. Although she had always been resistant to men, this feeling was just too comfortable, so comfortable that she did not want to wake up at all.

“Get up!”

“Slap!”

“Ah…” A sudden sharp pain on her forehead made the pleasant dream vanish instantly. Shuddering all over, she opened her eyes angrily and found a man standing in front of her, holding a banana, wearing a flower wreath on his head, and with a red fruit in his mouth.

“You… you! What do you want?” Ning Qingying’s clothes had long vanished, but she was completely unaware, her mind seeming somewhat confused.

Seeing her condition, Siyuan shook his head helplessly. He took a long, ruler-like object from her facial mask box, flicked it in his hand, and without another word, struck down without any mercy.

The plastic board hit Ning Qingying’s tender, snow-white buttocks with a whistling sound, causing a burning, searing pain that immediately jolted her awake.

“Ah…”

Before her scream could fully form, Siyuan stuffed a banana into her mouth, cutting off the trailing tremors.

“Fruit brought from the Amazon forest. You can’t buy it with money.” Siyuan picked up the pajamas from the floor and threw them to Ning Qingying. “Put them on and come with me.”

Ning Qingying did not react immediately. She stared blankly at Siyuan, chewing the sweet banana in her mouth, her mind struggling to catch up.

“You almost were done for. You were having a wet dream, weren’t you?” Siyuan peeled an unfamiliar fruit. “Is it okay to eat this raw? I saw them roasting it.”

“You… you… you… how did you get in?”

“Big sister, at a time like this, why do you care how I got in? Put on your clothes and come with me. I’ll break the spell for you.”

“What did you do to me?”

“I didn’t do anything to you, but you almost had something done to you. Let me tell you, being raped in a Sorcery dream is not something you can just brush off. Not only will your essence be drained, but you might also conceive a Ghost Pregnancy. If you get a Ghost Pregnancy, your life is basically over. A moment of pleasure in a wet dream, and your whole family ends up in a crematorium. If you want to harm yourself, fine, but don’t harm my Ning Qingyuan. Put on your clothes and come with me!”

Having someone know about her wet dream was quite embarrassing even for someone like Ning Qingying, who had been in the entertainment industry for a long time. Plus, Siyuan described the consequences so severely that she had no choice but to believe him. She could only silently follow Siyuan out.

However, the more considerate Siyuan overlooked the paparazzi issue. So, the paparazzi lurking outside Ning Qingying’s house all saw this pure and untarnished star, dressed in a loose bathrobe, follow a man out of the villa and silently disappear into the small woods behind the house. Photos and news almost instantly made it to the headlines of the entertainment sections of major newspapers.

But… Siyuan did not know this. He was now in a clearing in the woods, lighting a fire, roasting strange fruits, and beginning to set up a ritual array with incense.

“Stay inside. Don’t move, don’t speak, don’t be afraid. Call over the guy who was being intimate with you just now!”

“I… I’m scared…”

“What are you scared of?” Siyuan rubbed his nose. “Let me see what exactly this thing is.”
