Chapter 53：

Cold field.

"Are you sure?" Tang Xi asked.

"Of course." Pei Qingzhi nodded and asked politely, "Can you ask him to come out?"

"..." Tang Xi dumbly raised his left hand.

Yun Qiquan could hear what they said, and she didn't need to repeat it.

Suddenly, there was an extra person in the seat next to Tang Xi.

Yun Qi was dressed in white, and even short hair would not detract from the beauty of that face. Sitting at the window, the sunlight dyed his white shirt with a layer of gold, and he placed a hand on the table with distinct bones.

The waiter just brought the cold dish up, and when he saw one more person, his face suddenly showed upset and doubt. He quickly apologized and went to get another cutlery.

As a high-end restaurant like Shengtang, it would be too negligent to fail to notice what the guests came in! But... there should be people at the door all the time.

"Aren't you surprised?" Yun Qi raised his eyebrows.

"If you just want me to see it alone, you won't change into a dress that suits the times." Pei Qingzhi said calmly.

Yun Qi chuckled softly, picked up his chopsticks, picked some green bamboo shoots and put them on the small plate in front of him to taste.

"You, can you eat these?" Pei Qingzhi was rather shocked by the fact that he could eat human food.

"Ordinary ghosts can't do it, but I can." Yun Qi said indifferently, "Although it is not good to eat, you have to use grievances to dissolve it, just try it."

Pei Qingzhi was relieved, and then brought the topic back: "What I said just now, what do you think?"

"Can you guarantee that the exact same house will be built according to the drawings I drew?" Yun Qi asked.

"Of course." Pei Qingzhi affirmed before explaining, "You are a painter, not an architect. It is impossible for a worker to build such a house by looking at the painting. I need to ask a professional designer to draw a design draft based on his intention. , I can guarantee that the final house will be more than 90% similar to the picture."

"Ninety percent..." Yun Qi muttered to himself. After a while, he suddenly asked: "Last time I heard that what you are going to build is a villa area? How many buildings are there in total?"

"20 buildings." Pei Qingzhi replied immediately.

"I can draw you 20 completely different drawings." Yun Qi said.

Pei Qingzhi was taken aback, and then a burst of surprise came to his heart. Generally speaking, the houses built in a villa area are similar to each other, which is for a kind of overall aesthetics. After all, if the styles of each villa are different, the whole look will be nondescript, and the unified style needs to be different for each villa. This is too demanding for the designer. It is impossible for one person to do it, and several people are inconsistent. It's not as good as all the same.

However, if Yun Qi can draw 19 more pictures at the same level as the one in his hand, and form a series of its own, then the meaning will be different.

The Qingxi Gorge villa area can become the benchmark of the domestic antique garden community. This project is aimed at top customers. Such people don't need money, as long as they can really attract them.

"Conditions?" Pei Qing asked.

Yunqi is a ghost, and money and other possibilities are useless.

Sure enough, Yun Qi stretched out a finger and clicked on the painting on the table.

"You want... the house in this painting?" Pei Qingzhi thought for a while.

"Yeah." Yun Qi nodded coldly.

Pei Qingzhi hesitated for a moment before saying: "I think it's okay, but I'm afraid it's difficult to handle the procedures."

After all, ghosts have no household registration.

Yun Qi nodded Tang Xi again.

"Well, I will solve this problem." Tang Xi smiled helplessly.

Yun Qi glanced at her and slowly disappeared.

"Then, let me discuss the specific details with Mr. Pei." Tang Xi said calmly.

"Okay." Pei Qingzhi's biggest trouble has been resolved, and he feels relaxed. "Let’s eat first, and talk while eating. Today, I will discuss a preliminary charter. The specifics will be discussed after the contract is drawn up-do you need to hire a lawyer? ?"

"No, just leave it to Lawyer Chen, I believe him." Tang Xi waved.

Even if you don't talk about friendship, Pei Qingzhi knows who she is and what a terrible ghost Yun Qi is. If you dare to set a trap to pit her, it will be really fatal! So happy to be generous.

The waiter just brought up the hot dishes, a piece of hibiscus chicken slices, a piece of boiled shrimp, and a small bowl of green paste. I couldn't see what it was.

However, looking at a chair that was vacant, she couldn't help but be inexplicable-how about people?

She just went to the bathroom to touch up her makeup, and heard from Procter & Gamble that she hurriedly dragged the floor while no one came in, but she hadn’t seen anyone coming in just now, and now she didn’t see anyone going out... This is too bad! It is a serious contempt for their service quality in the Tang Dynasty!

"My friend left beforehand." Tang Xi explained kindly.

Even if it feels weird again, but the guests didn't say anything, the Tang Dynasty wouldn't always check the surveillance, right?

"Okay, slow it down, two people." The waiter had to pull out a stiff smile, swallowing the question back into his heart.

Forget it, anyway, the guests don't care, there is no need to be indifferent to colleagues, everyone will make mistakes, right?

"Try it." Pei Qingzhi put the small bowl in front of Tang Xi and introduced, "This is mashed peas. Dessert before meal. Try it."

"So ordinary?" Tang Xi was a little surprised.

"The ingredients of the dishes in the Tang Dynasty are very common, and they can be bought in the vegetable market. But there is nothing so exaggerated as the steak and seafood shipped in the night sky. The test is the level of the chef." Pei Qing laughed and recommended a few more to her. The dish that was delivered later.

Sour pork, steamed mandarin fish, and eight-treasure tofu are indeed very common dishes, but the taste is superb, and each plate is not large, even girls can try many dishes without holding up.

However, even though Tang Xi was very satisfied with the meal, she still didn't think any dish was worthy of the "signature".

The staple food served until the end was a bowl of noodles.

"That's it?" Tang Xi stared in disbelief at the small bowl of ordinary noodles and soup.

Commonly known as-Yangchun noodles.

Although this name is well-known in many martial arts novels, it seems that you have not tried Yangchun noodles before, but in fact, the so-called Yangchun noodles are really... clear soup noodles.

Randomly find a noodle restaurant, a few dollars a bowl, a large amount of food, the favorite of the migrant workers on the construction site.

No one thought that someone would use Yangchun noodles as a signboard.

Pei Qingzhi nodded with a smile, brows and eyes, as if she felt that her expression was very pleasing to herself.

Tang Xi picked up the chopsticks, picked a piece of noodles and put it in her mouth to taste. After swallowing, she took another sip of the soup and her eyes lit up.

"How is it?" Pei Qingzhi asked.

"Pork bones should be added to the soup base of eel bones, at least five hours or more." Tang Xi said, happily taking another sip of the soup.

"Tongue is good." Pei Qing praised.

The Yangchun noodles of the prosperous Tang Dynasty can become a signature, and of course there is a secret recipe in the soup base, but the most important part of Tang Xi is not wrong.

"Tingling~" At this moment, the bell hung at the gate rang, and someone pushed in.

Pei Qingzhi's seat was facing the door, and he subconsciously raised his head and glanced, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.

I saw a young man wrapped in a long black long woolen coat walking in. His hair was slightly longer, his face was pale, and he was wearing a black top hat, which was completely dressed in the style of the last century.

Seeing him looking over, the man nodded, and then he walked to a table against the wall and sat down.

However, what is strange is that several waiters in the Tang Dynasty passed by him, and none of them came forward to ask for the menu, and their attitude was totally different from when they came in before.

The black-clothed man didn't seem to be angry, but just sat there silently and didn't mean to shout.

When the waiter delivered the fruit after the meal, Pei Qingzhi finally couldn't help but asked euphemistically: "You...Is the welcome bell at the door broken?"

He doesn't know if the welcoming bell is broken. Anyway, it really rang just now. Maybe it was the waiter's eyes and ears that were broken?

The waiter glanced blankly at the door, and then scanned the entire first floor. His expression was unremarkable, and he apologized with three points: "I'm sorry, the bell is not broken, but the door seems to have some problems recently, obviously no one , But occasionally it will open automatically. Maybe it’s too sensitive. The manager here has called someone to fix it. If it causes trouble to both of you, I’m very sorry."

"..." Pei Qing was stunned.

"It's okay, it's probably windy recently." Tang Xi smiled as an excuse.

The waiter smiled and agreed. No matter how strong the wind is, the electronic sensor door will not be blown open, but seeing that they have no other meaning, they retreat.

"Did you know that?" Pei Qingzhi grinned his teeth and whispered.

Tang Xi poked a piece of honeydew melon into her mouth with a delicate small silver fork, admiring enough of his expression, and then said, "Close your right eye and look again."

Pei Qing was startled, and raised his hand to cover his right eye by pulling his hair away.

Half of the line of sight looked over, and sure enough, the seat was empty, no one was there? But as soon as he put his hand down, the black man still nodded and smiled at him, as if to indicate that he was right.

Pei Qingzhi only felt a gust of cold air rising from the soles of her feet, which could almost freeze human blood, and it took a while to slowly relax.

"You are not familiar with the Sky Eye, and temporarily can't distinguish between the things that exist in reality and the things that should be invisible." Tang Xi then explained with a smile, "After a long time, just get used to it."

"No..." Pei Qing pointed to the red string on his wrist in confusion, "Didn't you say that wearing this close to your body will make you invisible?"

"There is another sentence." Tang Xi looked innocent.

Pei Qingzhi paused and couldn't say anything: "Can he... compare with Yun Qi?"

At least in his eyes, the man in black was really no different from a living person except his face was too pale.

"I haven't beaten it, don't know." Tang Xi shrugged.

"!!!" Pei Qingzhi looked at her in surprise.

Tang Xi "puff" smiled: "Don't worry, there's me as well, I won't be able to lose after two hits and one."

Pei Qing caused a wry smile. Has he been a fleeting disadvantage recently? It's a **** of a meal when you come out, and it happens that you encounter the most powerful kind.

Suddenly, the black man stood up and walked straight towards them.

Pei Qingzhi narrowed her eyes and forced herself not to look at it, but on the surface she couldn't see it at all.

The black-clothed man sat down on the other side of the table and said with a smile: "Handsome sir, beautiful lady, good afternoon."

"Sorry." Pei Qingzhi said to Tang Xi.

"I've long been used to the trouble of finding the door automatically." Tang Xi shrugged, picked up another grape, and said casually, "I will give you ten minutes on the premise that you are very discerning and don't interrupt my meal. "

The man in black was not angry, but said: "I have a lover, a very beautiful and gentle human girl."

"Ahem..." The first sentence choked Tang Xi, turned her head, and said earnestly, "This...big brother, wake up, how do you fall in love with different races?"

"Perhaps when he was still a human?" Pei Qing asked to guess, but then said to the black-clothed man, "However, everything is eliminated when people die, and the past is better to be broken, so as not to harm others and self."

"I owe her an apology, but unfortunately I have no chance to tell her. Now her time is running out. I don't want her to leave with regret." The black man pressed the top hat on his head and lowered his head. Solemnly said, "Please."

Tang Xi ate the grapes slowly, spit out the skins and seeds, and said leisurely: "I have received a lot of human entrustment, but non-human entrustment...what reward can you pay?"

The man in black was obviously shocked.

"It seems that you really know me." Tang Xi smiled, "I will indeed help the ghosts fulfill their wishes at no cost, but that is... a last wish. I accept their last wish and let them disappear with peace of mind." You... don't want to disappear, do you? Or let me ask you another way, can you disappear?"

"No." The black man smiled bitterly.

"So, I'm quite curious about what you are?" Tang Xi put her cheek in her hand, her tone of pure inquiry, "His eyes can see you but others can't see it, which proves that you are indeed a ghost, but I always feel that you are The breath is not right, not like a ghost."

"I'm...Ghost Xiu." The black-clothed man was silent for a while before saying.

"Ghost repair?" Tang Xi read it again, shook her head, obviously not believing it.

Yunqi can also be regarded as a ghost cultivator, but it is still completely different. It is not a question of who is strong and who is weak, but the way they are composed is completely different. The difference is big... well, it is like organic matter and inorganic matter. The difference between.

"What do you want?" The black-clothed man said seriously, "I really don't have any money in the world, but I am very strong. I can do something for you."

"You are quite powerful, but what does it matter to me?" Tang Xi said calmly, "I am not short of powerful ghosts, and the one who signed a contract with me obviously reassured me that your origin is unknown. Yes, I also worry about you stabbing me in the back."

"You want... a contract?" The black-clothed man thought for a while and reacted.

"We all need a guarantee, don't we?" Tang Xi said.

"Yes." The black-clothed man put his hand on the table, and soon, a little bit of black light condensed, and a piece of parchment gradually appeared on the table, and the characters on it flickered, slowly forming words.

Finally, there is a somewhat stiff signature: Xie Changan.

Tang Xi scanned the contract and confirmed that there was no problem. With her spiritual power condensing her fingertips, she wrote the word "Tang Xi".

The name flickered and disappeared. Only the three words "Xie Changan" remained clear.

"Real name contract?" Tang Xi was shocked.

"We all need a guarantee." Xie Changan replied in her words.

"I just didn't expect that the real name contract could still be seen in this world." Tang Xi smiled, reunited her spiritual power, and wrote another name: Tang Lingxi.

This time, the name was left, and then the entire contract fell apart and split into two halves.

"The contract is established." Xie Changan's pale face showed a hint of joy.

"Okay, now tell me your last wish...Ah no, entrust it." Tang Xi said.

Xie Changan twitched the corners of his mouth and stood up and said, "Look at the phone."

"Oh, go slowly." Tang Xi waved.

"Dingling~Dingling~"

"Why is there a problem again? When will the door be repaired?" The waiter said to himself, floating over.

Pei Qingzhi relaxed his body and asked curiously: "Why promise him?"

Tang Xi smiled triumphantly, like a little fox that had eaten grapes: "I really didn't expect to see it... Forget it, you still don't know, as long as you understand, you can get him. , Blood is not lost!"

Hearing what she said, Pei Qingzhi didn't ask further, and said after a pause, "Tang Lingxi?"

"Oh, that's the relationship of the real name contract." Tang Xi poked a piece of watermelon while explaining, "The real name contract directly binds the souls of both parties, and only recognizes the only name. And like the demon and the ghost, it has been mixed in the world for a long time, there must be One's own human name is usually not considered a lie, but the only thing left in the real name contract is the name of the demon he was born with."

"Lingxi, is your real name?" Pei Qingzhi was stunned.

"Xuanmen Taoist name, a gift from her master." Tang Xi raised her eyebrows, "After Master goes, you and Yun Qi will know about this in this world, oh, and that Xie Changan."

Pei Qing was startled, inexplicably, a trace of satisfaction flowed from the bottom of his heart.

After a while, he asked, "Do you really know the identity of Xie Changan?"

"Yeah." Tang Ximan replied carelessly, and raised her hand, a spell formed on the palm of her hand and spread out, "Do you know what it is?"

Pei Qingzhi shook his head.

Tang Xi approached slightly, waiting for Pei Qingzhi to subconsciously approach, but smiled and uttered two words: "Secret."

"You..." Pei Qingzhi was dumbfounded, then laughed.

"Okay, I'm full, thank you Mr. Pei for the hospitality." Tang Xi picked up his hand bag and got up, "As for the contract, after the contract is drawn up, I can let Lawyer Chen talk to me."

"Okay." Pei Qingzhi greeted the waiter to come over and swipe his card and walked in front, "I'll take you back."

"Thank you." Tang Xi was also polite.

However, when she saw Pei Qingzhi's car in the parking lot, she still stunned, and then checked the license plate to make sure it was the one Pei Qingzhi drove every day.

Because...there is a huge red fox sitting in the back seat, almost occupying the seat of two people. Fortunately, it is soft, otherwise it might not fit in.

"President Pei's hobby is really special." Tang Xi said dryly, yelling badly in her heart.

Could it be your own injury? Let him be a Hello Kitty for too long, and the result is such a ghostly appearance of a straight man!

"It's for you." Pei Qingzhi said softly, "Also, happy birthday."

"Huh?" Tang Xi was dumbfounded, "for me? Birthday?"

Pei Qing chuckled and explained: "Although the birthday on your ID is the day after tomorrow, you are not born the day after tomorrow, are you? Tang Jing’s birthday is your real birthday, and the Tang family gave them a birthday for their eldest lady. Yes, all the invitations have been sent to me, of course I know."

"..." Tang Xi was dumb.

"You and Tang Zhenying dissolve the parent-child relationship...but I don't think Tang Zhenying really found the wrong daughter." Pei Qingzhi said frankly, "With your ability, it is too easy to change a small paternity test."

Tang Xi actually wanted to say that although you guessed it all right, but...today is indeed not her birthday.

In the previous life, she was an abandoned baby, and she didn't know who was thrown into the mountain to fend for herself. It was the master who picked her back and raised her up with great care. That's why Tang Xi, a profound sect, was born.

She never knows when her birthday is, and can only roughly guess that it is summer.

She is not proficient in miscellaneous learning such as fortune-telling, and one reason is that people who do not have birthdays, of course, do not have birthday characters. I don't even know my birth date, and there are some things I can't learn at all.

Having lived for more than twenty years, she has never had a birthday.

I don’t know when my birthday is, and I don’t think the day of being abandoned is worth celebrating.

However, there is actually someone who usually says "Happy Birthday" to her and gives her gifts.

"What's the matter?" Pei Qing asked in surprise, "You... don't like it?"

"Like it!" Tang Xi held back her tears, did not go to sit in the co-pilot, but opened the door of the back seat and got in, hugged the giant Ari and rubbed it, "It's so warm and put it on the floor of the living room. The pillow is the best."

"Just like it." Pei Qing sighed in relief.

Back in Fengya Jiangnan, Tang Xi refused Pei Qingzhi's help, and carried the Ali who was taller than her upstairs.

However, it was really inconvenient to take a card to open the door. Thinking that Chu Li seemed to be on vacation today, he kicked the door with his toes.

"Come..." Chu Li was really at home, but when he opened the door, he saw a huge fox doll. He almost didn't shoot it straight away because his mental quality was better.

"It's me." Tang Xi reluctantly poked her head out from behind the fox.

"What is this?" Chu Limu said.

"Ari." Tang Xi explained solemnly, "Ari, a popular original cartoon character in China, has a cute, warm, and childish personality. He has always believed in fairy tales. It was created by Hans in 2006 and published on the Internet and magazines and published fairy tale picture books. And animated shorts. Please refer to Baidu Encyclopedia for details."

"..." Chu Li was silent for a moment, and said angrily, "Of course I know this red fox! I was asking you how to hug a fox back when you went to have a meal!"

I really want to be **** off. There are not many Ahri in the chat emoticons these days. It's strange if I don't know her. She did it on purpose, right?

"Birthday present, Mr. Pei gave it." Tang Xi blinked her eyes with an innocent expression.

"Given it from Pei Qing?" Chu Li's expression was very difficult to describe.

Today should be "Tang Xi"'s true birthday. Since Pei Qingzhi sent someone to help her with the lawsuit, he knew that there was nothing wrong with it. But this silly fox... shouldn't Pei Qingzhi give gifts like custom jewelry, brand-name clothes and bags? Even sending a car is better than sending a...a doll?

"Let's come and go." Tang Xi put Ari on the stall in the living room and nodded in satisfaction.

Quite appropriate, Yueyue will definitely like it too!

Chu Li thought of Hello Kitty on Pei Qingzhi's birthday, and shook his head speechlessly.

OK, you two are happy!

Tang Xi turned around, but his eyes fell on the dining table.

It was an exquisite paper box tied with a ribbon. She also knew the LOGO printed on it. It was a well-known cake shop not far from Yi Gao. Occasionally, she would go to eat with Qi Sihui after school.

"It's birthday anyway, at least blow a candle and cut a cake?" Chu Li sighed and scratched his head a little embarrassedly. "I haven't bought these, so I asked forensic doctor Su. She recommended this flavor to me. ."

"Thank you." Before he could finish, Tang Xi suddenly rushed over and hugged him fiercely.

It turns out that someone really remembered her and took her to heart.

"Hey, little girl, I'm not used to you like this." Chu Li only felt that there was nowhere to put his hands and feet.

Knowing this girl's ups and downs, it is estimated that no one had given her a good birthday before, but he really couldn't hold on to such a sentimental scene, do you want to comfort him? What if I cry! I can't coax! Give me a hug?

"I won't cry!" Tang Xi was itchy, let go of him, and kicked him.

Chu Li didn't care if she accidentally said something, but he was relieved seeing her return to normal.

After removing the ribbon carton, there is a small 6-inch cake in matcha flavor, with the words "Happy Birthday" written in chocolate.

Tang Xi lit 17 candles, then brought the whole cake to the stall, put it with Ari, leaned against Ari, turned back and gestured.

Chu Li knew, picked up the phone and took a picture and passed it to her.

Tang Xi closed it with a smile. He wanted to post to Moments, but after thinking about it, he pressed it again.

In order to avoid some trouble, she decided to wait until the day after tomorrow, the birthday on her ID card before sending it out.

Chu Li simply sat down on the carpet, and many ghosts appeared next to him.

Aunt Zhang, Yueyue's mother and daughter, Yu Mingfan, Su Huang, and finally Yun Qi stood indifferently at the outermost periphery.

"Can I make a wish?" Tang Xi clasped her hands together, looking at Chu Li with bright eyes.

"Well." Chu Li was startled, and nodded without thinking.

"Great!" Tang Xi immediately hurriedly pulled out a crumpled piece of paper from the schoolbag next to him: "Please~~~"

Chu Li was shaken by her sweet voice, but then saw the words on the paper-suddenly broke out: "Go to you|Mom|'s parent conference! You actually let me go to the parent conference!"

"You are my guardian, who do you not go!" Tang Xi was confident.

"Don't go!" Chu Li glared at her.

Let him hold a parent meeting for high school girls with a group of uncles and aunts? His fame!

"No! You promised me to make a wish, and the adults can't speak for nothing! You're still a policeman!" Tang Xi said, grabbing a handful of cream on the cake and rubbing it on his face.

Chu Li was caught off guard by her creamy face, paused, and immediately wiped it back. When it comes to physical skills, he is really not afraid of Tang Xi.

"This is fun!" Su Huang's eyes lit up and he immediately joined. When she was alive, the cake was still a rare thing, and it was not enough to eat. How could it be used to fight a cream fight.

Although other ghosts can't touch a living person, it's okay to hit someone with butter or something. Of course, in the beginning, the ghosts helped Tang Xi to encircle and beat Chu Li. At the end, the front line expanded and it turned into a big melee. Except for Ari who was protected by Tang Xi's spiritual power, the two people and the surrounding carpet and sofa were safe and sound. The walls are all suffering.

"Thanks for Aunt Zhang." Tang Xi said, lying on the ground.

"It's not hard, it's hard to see Xixi as happy as a child, it's great!" Aunt Zhang was relieved.

"Smelly girl, not cute at all." Chu Li lying next to him was even more miserable. Although he was good at it, he couldn't bear that Tang Xi didn't open his yin and yang eyes, he couldn't see it!

"There is a piece of cake left, mine." Tang Xi said.

"No one will rob you." Chu Li waved his hand, too lazy to move, staring at the snow-white ceiling in a daze.

Since I went overseas undercover that year, how long has it been...I haven't been so crazy...Perhaps, this kind of life is also pretty good?

In the end, the only thing left... or a small piece of cake that was left intentionally was still divided into two halves, and the two ate them half and half.

Tang Xi took a shower, washed away the cream from her hair, changed into her household clothes, and came out. The living room was basically cleaned up, but the carpet and sofa cover were taken to the laundry room, and new ones had not been laid.

"Happy?" Yun Qi appeared beside her.

"It seems to be." Tang Xi thought for a while and nodded, "Yun Qi, I am a person without a birthday. From now on, I will treat today as my birthday, okay?"

"It's fine if you are happy." Yun Qi replied.

Her current body was indeed born today. Although the soul and body have changed a lot after the fusion, the birth date of the original owner still has a certain effect on her.

"I'm very happy." Tang Xi didn't mind sitting directly on the floor, hugging the chubby Ari, and repeated it earnestly.
