Max Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey…?

Chapter 28: Chapter 28: The Ancestor is a Great Beauty

Fu Shiyan immediately furrowed his brows and lifted his eyelids to look at Duan Jianchuan.

Duan Jianchuan, somewhat puzzled, asked with his mouth shape, what happened?

Fu Shiyan also asked the person on the other side of the phone, “What happened?”

“I, I encountered a scammer!!” Wen Zishu yelled furiously.

Fu Shiyan: “…”

…

Xia Xin had been waiting outside for quite a while before Jiangli finally came out of the fitting room, changed into a black dress by the sales associate.

Jiangli’s temperament was naturally cool, making the dress even more suitable for her.

Xia Xin’s eyes nearly popped out of his head, “Ancestor, you look so beautiful!”

Jiangli felt somewhat uncomfortable, the dress was sleeveless and she had never worn such clothing. She couldn’t help but tug at it and, hearing Xia Xin’s words, she frowned with a touch of skepticism, “Really looks good?”

“Really looks good!” Xia Xin hurriedly said, “Don’t believe me? Ask the miss next to you!”

Upon hearing this, the sales associate smiled and said, “It does look really good. The young girl is beautiful and has a nice figure; she’s a natural hanger for clothes. She would look good in anything.”

Jiangli touched her nose, still doubtful, but since everyone was saying the same thing, it probably wasn’t bad.

Suddenly, Xia Xin felt a surge of paternal joy, urging Jiangli to quickly try on the rest of the clothes.

Just like the sales associate had said, Jiangli was indeed a natural when it came to clothing, everything looked good on her.

Xia Xin, feeling somewhat like a proud father, found each piece looked good and couldn’t bear to put them down. Gritting his teeth, he bought all of them for Jiangli.

The sales associate also recommended some lingerie for them.

Xia Xin immediately felt a bit embarrassed; he hadn’t thought of these and was even more clueless about choosing such clothes, so he asked the sales associate to pick several sets for Jiangli, and taught her how to wear them.

Afterward, they went to pay the bill.

When they checked out, over five thousand!

Xia Xin almost couldn’t catch his breath, but looking at the large and small bags in his hands, it seemed about right.

He was greatly relieved that he hadn’t taken his ancestor straight to an upscale clothing store, otherwise… the Taoist temple might have truly been doomed.

Xia Xin sighed internally and looked at Jiangli, asking, “Ancestor, shall we go for a meal now?”

Jiangli paused for a second and said, “I’m afraid we won’t have the chance to eat just yet.”

Baffled and about to ask why, Xia Xin’s phone suddenly rang.

With both hands full of various clothing bags and hearing his phone ring, Xia Xin, who couldn’t manage to free his hands, awkwardly looked at Jiangli, “Ancestor, could you, could you help me hold a bag for a moment?”

Jiangli reached out and took some of the clothing bags from him.

Xia Xin let out a sigh of relief, pulled out his phone and saw it was a call from Boss Cao.

They had owed Boss Cao a substantial amount of money before, and Boss Cao would call from time to time threatening to demolish the Taoist temple if they didn’t pay up.

That’s how the two had stayed in touch.

Remembering what had happened today when Boss Cao came to demolish the temple, Xia Xin answered the call with trepidation, “Hello…”

“Xia Xin! You little rascal, you planned against me, didn’t you?!”

Before Xia Xin could finish speaking, Boss Cao’s roar came through the phone.

Xia Xin’s face scrunched up and he immediately pulled the phone away from his ear.

Standing beside him, Jiangli also heard Boss Cao’s yelling on the phone!

“It’s definitely you! You must have done something, and then lied to me about karma! I’m telling you, I don’t believe this nonsense! Xia Xin, I’m not going to let this go! I’ve already arranged for a new demolition team, and tomorrow I’m going to level your Jiaoyang Temple to the ground! Or else, I’ll take your surname! You little rascal!”

Xia Xin’s heart skipped a beat and he said anxiously, his face pale, “Boss Cao, it really wasn’t us, you saw it with your own eyes, we were right by your side, how could we have done anything? This, this is the truth…”
