I'm Jealous Of Myself Everyday (QT)

Chapter 32: I'm Jealous of Myself Every Day

Upon seeing Xie Junya's courtyard from afar, Wei Ye stopped and said, "Third brother, you go by yourself, I won't go."

Xie Shuyun looked at him inquisitively, "Sister-in-law doesn't want to see Second Brother?"

"We've had a bit of a disagreement lately," Wei Ye replied vaguely. "Meeting would only make things awkward."

Xie Shuyun considerately refrained from asking further questions. He smiled and said, "This is the last place where we need to exorcise evil spirits. The courtyard is full of soldiers, so there's plenty of yang energy and evil energy."

"Especially Second Brother, he stands there like a pillar of strength, impervious to all evil spirits. We don't need to worry about him."

He led Wei Ye around Xie Junya's courtyard, roughly circling the Xie family's estate, leaving only the back garden, which was also the place with the most severe ghost stories.

As they approached the edge of the garden, they heard a commotion coming from behind the tree, "Old Li, stop it! Don't let it crawl under your legs!"

"Damn it, come at me if you dare! This beast is ruthless, I dare not take him on!"

It looks like they're catching some kind of animal.

Wei Ye walked over to look, when suddenly a dark shadow darted past him, accompanied by a fierce bark.

"Watch out!" Xie Wenxiu was now able to show himself occasionally, but just as he was about to reach out, Xie Shuyun's hand reached out from the side and pulled Wei Ye back.

Wei Ye took two steps back, startled, and gasped for breath. "Thank you, Third Brother."

"You're too kind, sister-in-law." Xie Shuyun looked in the direction behind him, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.

Not wanting to be discovered by Xie Shuyun, Xie Wenxiu concealed his aura and retreated a little further away.

Wei Ye didn't notice this little incident. His gaze followed the direction of the dark figure, and he saw a half-human-sized animal quickly dart to the wall and disappear into the bushes.

"Are you alright, sir?" The newly appointed butler, Xu, rushed over, wiping his sweat as he looked at him anxiously. "That beast didn't bite you, did it?"

"Is that a dog?" Wei Ye frowned.

Suddenly, a thought popped into his mind: in the original owner's fate, he was bitten to death by a vicious dog when he tried to escape from the garden in the middle of the night.

What kind of dog is so fierce? It's practically like a wolf.

Wei Ye asked the question, and Butler Xu answered in detail: "This dog used to be our guard dog. Later, the person who raised it died, and it ran away and became a stray dog. I don't know why it became so fierce and crazy."

Wei Ye: "How did the person who owned it die?" His first thought was that the dog had rabies.

"It was Old Hai. He probably died of old age or illness. He had been with our family for many years and was very good at raising livestock. He used to be in charge of raising dogs and horses. It was not easy to find a new person to replace him after he passed away." Butler Xu did not have a deep impression of the old man. "By the way, his face was covered with scars like centipedes. He looked quite scary. He rarely showed his face, afraid of frightening others."

"If it went mad because it missed its former master, then this dog is quite loyal," Butler Xu sighed. "The problem is that it runs wild outside and keeps coming back to look for food. Several people who encountered it have been bitten. We were just about to catch it when it escaped again."
