Ghost Catching System

Shi Zhengxin was on the verge of tears, now wishing he could slap himself. What was I thinking, inviting guests out of nowhere, just because I can't keep my mouth shut!

He took out his phone, hands trembling, and called his dad. "Dad, can you transfer some money over? I... I don't have enough here."

From the other end of the line, his father's angry voice boomed, "All you know is how to spend money! Why did I have such a wastrel son?! Get lost... There's no money!"

Shi Zhengxin felt like crying. "Dad, if you don't give me the money, you might never see your son again."

Shi Zhengxin's dad was puzzled. "Have you been kidnapped? Good! Tell those robbers to do their worst with you."

Is this my real dad?

Shi Zhengxin almost collapsed. "Dad, I'm not joking, this is serious."

"How much do you need?"

Shi Zhengxin stammered, "It's... probably still short by half a million."

His dad exploded over the phone, "Fuck! Where are you?"

Shi Zhengxin rolled his eyes. You're asking me after cursing about Mom? Aren't you the one sleeping with her every year?

"Rose Garden KTV Emperor Private Room."

Shi Zhengxin's dad almost spat blood. You actually went *there* to fool around? Even I only get taken there by others! A place that extravagant... even bosses with assets over a hundred million don't dare go often!

"You!... Are you trying to piss me to death?!"

Shi Zhengxin hurriedly said, "Dad, listen to me, I'm drinking with Sister Gui."

"The Sister Gui from the Rose Society?" Shi Zhengxin's dad asked, surprised. Brought to you by MV6LEMPY6R.

"Yes, that Sister Gui."

Shi Zhengxin's dad exclaimed in amazement, "How are you with Sister Gui? Never mind, I'll send you five hundred thousand right away. Will that be enough? Tell you what, I'll send you another five hundred thousand on top of that. You absolutely must get on Sister Gui's good side, understand?"

Shi Zhengxin said excitedly, "Sure, Dad."

Shi Zhengxin breathed a sigh of relief; with money, things were so much easier.

Meanwhile, seeing Chu Hao, Yu Sicheng, and Sister Gui still drinking, he scurried over. "Brother Hao, Sister Gui, and this gentleman, please, feel free. I'll down this bottle."

With that, he picked up a bottle of beer and gulped it down entirely.

Sister Gui smiled faintly. She carried herself with the air of a powerful boss yet was also strikingly beautiful. It was a pity she was a lesbian. "Ah-Hao," she said, "your friend is quite generous."

Chu Hao glanced at him. "Didn't you say you were too drunk?"

Shi Zhengxin hastily waved his hands. "Brother Hao, my stomach just hurt earlier. It's fine now, no matter how much I drink."

Smart of you, Chu Hao thought. I was about to deal with you, but seeing how you've helped me show off, I'll let it slide.

Chu Hao waved his hand. "Alright, go have fun."

"Sure, sure." Shi Zhengxin quickly backed away.

After Shi Zhengxin left, his bunch of fair-weather friends crowded around, asking, "Zhengxin, who exactly is that Brother Hao?"

Shi Zhengxin gave a wry smile. "How would I know? Today I accidentally poked the tiger's butt, but thankfully I salvaged the situation quickly."

The girl with the internet-celebrity face suggested, "Why don't we ask Qin Zhengyu?"

However, Qin Zhengyu also shook his head, clueless about Chu Hao's background. But he did say, "From now on, when you see Chu Hao, you'd better keep your temper in check. Do you know what he did at Ancient Moon Residence?"

Qin Zhengyu continued, "I was there at the time. He spent twenty thousand on a Wind Chime Tower. And do you know how much someone later offered to buy that Wind Chime Tower for?"

The crowd swallowed hard. "How much?"

"One million."

"What?" they exclaimed in surprise.

Qin Zhengyu chuckled. "You might not believe this, but that's just small fry. Chu Hao sold a coffin at Ancient Moon Residence for one hundred million."

"Ding... Host has successfully shown off, gaining 50 Pretentiousness Points."

Chu Hao felt incredibly pleased. Everyone helps me show off, and I, in turn, show off for everyone. How am I so talented? You just can't deny it.

"Damn it! Who the hell would buy a coffin for a hundred million?" Shi Zhengxin couldn't help but curse aloud.

"Really?" the girl with the internet-celebrity face exclaimed.

Qin Zhengyu said, "The Wind Chime Tower I bought is now at home. It's only been a few days, and my dad is about to get promoted again, and I've also been accepted into the police force. So you see, his abilities are beyond your imagination. Just a little guidance from him, and your future will definitely be smooth sailing."

Shi Zhengxin was filled with regret. How could he afford to provoke such a person? He was extremely frustrated. It was just a game, and yet he'd encountered something like this. He really was down on his luck.

Meanwhile, Sister Gui said to Chu Hao and Yu Sicheng, "Good timing, there's something I'd like to ask of you both. An uncle of mine had some strange occurrences when relocating our ancestral grave a while ago."

Chu Hao's interest was piqued. I'm determined to level up quickly, and vanquishing ghosts is the fastest shortcut.

Yu Sicheng asked, "What kind of strange occurrences?"

Zi Gui said, "Ever since the relocation of the ancestral grave, the coffin bearers have all gone mad. My uncle's family has also been troubled. The Eldest Aunt often has episodes of madness, and a face-like pattern has appeared on the back of her neck."

As Zi Gui recounted these events, her expression shifted. Indeed, any normal person would be afraid of such ghostly affairs.

Chu Hao stroked his chin. "Have you had someone take a look at it?"

Zi Gui nodded. "We've had four people come. Three of them died, and the last one survived but also went mad."

"Alright, I'll take a look tomorrow."

In the Emperor Private Room, everyone was having a blast.

When Chu Hao went to the bathroom, he saw Yu Sicheng and Wenmi "getting busy" inside.

Wenmi shrieked, and Yu Sicheng hurriedly pulled up his pants.

Chu Hao exclaimed in exasperation, "Whoa... Bro, can't you guys at least close the door?"

Wenmi's face turned bright red, and Yu Sicheng glared at Chu Hao, signaling him to hurry out.

Man, you're something else! Chu Hao thought.

Those two had thoroughly gotten into it.

Chu Hao was impressed. It's only been two days! Wenmi probably isn't even divorced yet, and she dares to fool around like this.

In the end, when Shi Zhengxin went to settle the bill, it totaled one million two hundred thousand. He felt like crying.

Everyone went their separate ways, back to their own homes.

Chu Hao, Wang Meng, and Yu Sicheng returned to the shop. Both Wang Meng and Yu Sicheng were feeling a bit dizzy and went straight to bed.

Chu Hao suddenly felt a strong urge to pee and jogged to the restroom. As soon as he opened the door, he was greeted by the sight of a stark naked body.

That scene was really... something, especially that dark, dense patch down there.

Chu Hao was stunned.

The person inside was also stunned.

Zhong Minyue had been planning to take a bath. After fumbling with the shower for a while, she had finally figured it out, but she'd forgotten to lock the door.

Zhong Minyue cried out, "AH!" quickly covering herself, her face turning so red it looked like it might bleed.

Chu Hao quickly turned around, his mouth suddenly dry. Master's figure is really good, he thought.

Chu Hao said apologetically, "Why don't you lock the door when you take a bath!"

Zhong Minyue felt like she could never show her face in public again.

Zhong Minyue stepped out. She knew Chu Hao hadn't done it on purpose; she had just been too careless.

Zhong Minyue, her gaze evasive, said, "Young Benefactor Chu, please don't speak of this matter to anyone."
