Movie variety show soul travels between two worlds to become a rich man

Chapter 685 Come on, the debt of saving my life is greater than the heavens!
"Gudong Gudong——"

Gao Dongxu watched as Xu Qin, whether genuinely thirsty or nervous, gulped down all the water in her cup.

"Let me pour you some more—" Gao Dongxu stood up and reached out to Xu Qin.

"Thank you—" Xu Qin handed the water glass to Gao Dongxu with a slightly shy expression. Then, while eating chocolate in small bites, she watched him pick up the mineral water and pour it into the glass. Her pretty face showed a conflicted and hesitant expression. In the end, her curiosity overcame everything and she asked softly.

Are you a special person who handles paranormal events?

Gao Dongxu smiled, carried the water glass to the bedside, handed it to Xu Qin, whose pretty face was slightly flushed and whose almond-shaped eyes were fixed on him, and then sat down and said, "Yes."

"Are there many paranormal events?" Xu Qin asked curiously, her beautiful eyes wide with wonder.

"These things are normally confidential and shouldn't be known to ordinary people, but your situation is rather special, so telling you a little bit won't hurt..."

Gao Dongxu smiled and embellished the ghost stories he told Xu Qin, focusing on the most terrifying ones. Xu Qin unconsciously wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, listening intently with her beautiful eyes unblinking.

It has to be said that people are just like that; even though they are scared and nervous when listening to stories, they can't help but want to keep listening.

There's no way around it; fear is the oldest and strongest human emotion. Deep within everyone lies the unknown fear. This fear is innate and can evolve and deepen with growth and experience, serving as one of the most primal driving forces, subtly influencing human words and actions.

"Alright, that's enough for now. Lie down and get some sleep." Gao Dongxu saw that the atmosphere had been set enough, so he stopped talking.

At this moment, Xu Qin, her mind filled with ghost stories, clutched the blanket, blinked her bright and charming eyes at Gao Dongxu, and asked shyly and softly, "Where do you sleep?"

"Make do on the sofa for the night." Gao Dongxu smiled, got up, turned off the main light in the room, leaving only the table lamp on, lay down on the sofa, and said to Xu Qin, "Go lie down and sleep."

"Hmm..." Xu Qin looked at Gao Dongxu on the sofa, breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little disappointed as she lay down, wrapped herself tightly in the blanket, closed her eyes, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

After an unknown amount of time, in the dead silence, Xu Qin suddenly heard a faint sound coming from outside—a broken children's song, its tone distorted, like a remnant squeezed from an old radio.

The singer had long forgotten the lyrics, leaving only a mechanical humming that echoed in the rainy night, like some inescapable curse.

Xu Qin suddenly opened her eyes, her fingers gripping the blanket tightly, and asked in a trembling voice with a look of fear on her face, "Are you...asleep?"

“No—” Gao Dongxu raised an eyebrow, quite pleased with the shop owner’s understanding.

"Did you hear that?" Xu Qin felt a sense of relief upon hearing Gao Dongxu's response, but she was still terrified. The humming sound seemed to be coming from the stairwell outside.

"It's okay, you can go to sleep. Don't worry about it, I'm here," Gao Dongxu said calmly.

"I...I'm scared—" Xu Qin, who felt the thing outside their room approaching, said in a trembling voice with fear, "Can you...can you sleep in the bed..."

"This..." Gao Dongxu feigned hesitation and said, "Isn't that inappropriate..."

"It's okay, I believe you, please... I'm scared." Xu Qin said in a trembling voice, her voice trembling with tears. She could clearly feel something standing in front of the window, staring at her through the tightly closed curtains. It felt like a thorn in her back, and her hands and feet were cold.

"All right--"

Gao Dongxu reluctantly agreed, then sat up from the sofa, walked to the bedside, sat down, and lay down next to Xu Qin.

However, at this moment, Xu Qin was wrapped in a blanket with her back to Gao Dongxu, and Gao Dongxu seemed to be avoiding suspicion, deliberately keeping a certain distance from Xu Qin.

"Did you hear that sound?" Gao Dongxu lay beside her, and Xu Qin, who was finally no longer so scared, asked shyly in a low voice, her heart racing.

"Hmm, it's alright, don't worry about it. This is the Yin-Yang Realm after all, it would be strange if there weren't those things here. Don't worry, they can't get in—" Gao Dongxu turned to the side, looking at Xu Qin with her back to him, and gently comforted her.

Feeling the intense male presence behind her, Xu Qin's heart raced again, pounding like a deer. Her face flushed, and she bit her red lips, whispering in a trembling voice, "Aren't you scared?"

"Hehe, don't be afraid, don't worry, with me here, you're safe." Gao Dongxu smiled and gently reassured him.

"Um..."

Before Xu Qin could fully relax, the next moment, she heard scratching sounds coming from the doorway and windows. Startled, Xu Qin screamed and turned around abruptly, burying her face in Gao Dongxu's arms, her eyes filled with terror as she clung to his broad, warm chest.

"It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, they can't get in..." Gao Dongxu quickly hugged Xu Qin tightly, gently stroking her back, feeling her slightly cold skin, and softly comforted her.

"Are you sure?" Hearing the scratching at the door and windows, Xu Qin, trembling, pressed her pale face against Gao Dongxu's hot chest and asked in a trembling voice.

"I'm sure," Gao Dongxu said softly, "It's just that your situation is a bit..."

"Huh? What happened to me?" Xu Qin was stunned at first, then looked up nervously and asked, just in time to meet the gaze of Gao Dongxu, who was looking down at her.

The way the two were embracing at that moment, coupled with their close eye contact, had already pushed the level of ambiguity to the limit.

Xu Qin's heartbeat was so strong that both of them could hear it clearly. Her pale face flushed red in an instant, and she hurriedly lowered her head shyly, not daring to look Gao Dongxu in the eye again. But she was also afraid, or perhaps unwilling, to break free from Gao Dongxu's warm and reassuring embrace.

"Your body is too cold. Your special destiny has created your special constitution, and the yin energy here is undoubtedly the purest. The yin energy entering your body will enhance your all-yin body, which will not only not benefit you, but will also be like adding fuel to the fire."

"You need to be mentally prepared. After you get out, you will definitely fall seriously ill. If you are willing to trust me, it's best to stay away from your relatives, otherwise, it may bring disaster to your family..." Gao Dongxu said in a gentle voice, stating the cruelest outcome that chilled Xu Qin to the bone.

"..." Xu Qin's face was deathly pale, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears. She met Gao Dongxu's gaze, this time without flinching, and said in a helpless, trembling voice, "How could this happen?!"

"There's nothing we can do, this is your destiny. The things outside are only coming to you because they sense your special nature. In the future, you will frequently encounter supernatural events..." Gao Dongxu continued to speak the truth.

Xu Qin gave a helpless bitter smile, her eyes filled with tears as she looked at Gao Dongxu and said in a trembling voice, "Am I the kind of person people often call an unlucky person, a jinx, right?"

"Cough cough, it's not that serious..." Gao Dongxu looked at Xu Qin, who was smiling wryly and making a self-deprecating joke. He felt a little sorry for her, but when he thought about the humanoid medicine he would get soon, his guilt disappeared.

"Hehe..." Xu Qin gave a bitter smile, looking at Gao Dongxu's helpless and pitying expression. Her beautiful eyes, filled with tears, stared at him intently as she said in a trembling voice, "You're helping me so much, aren't you afraid I'll bring you misfortune?"

“Your destiny is a big problem for ordinary people, but it won’t affect me because I have a pure Yang destiny,” Gao Dongxu said, looking at Xu Qin.

Xu Qin was stunned for a moment, then her beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Gao Dongxu, and she said in disbelief, her voice trembling, "You, you're also an orphan?!"

Gao Dongxu's lips twitched a few times, then he nodded with a wry smile and said helplessly, "It's all fate—"

Xu Qin seemed to have found a kindred spirit. Her beautiful eyes were full of tenderness and pity as she looked at Gao Dongxu, and her goodwill towards him immediately increased.

"...Pure yang cannot grow, pure yin cannot be born. When yin and yang are in harmony, all things grow. Only when yin and yang are in balance can all things be in harmony."

Suddenly, Xu Qin remembered what Gao Dongxu had said earlier, and softly murmured it aloud. Then, she looked at Gao Dongxu, her beautiful eyes sparkling with shyness, and said in a trembling voice, "Do you have a way to help us both resolve our respective fates?"

"..." Gao Dongxu was silent at first, but his burning gaze and rapid breathing made Xu Qin feel his excitement and exhilaration.

Yes, would you like to?

"..." Xu Qin blushed and lowered her head, her heart racing. She bit her red lips tightly, her mind filled with the memory of Gao Dongxu appearing in front of her when she was most helpless, shielding her from the rain with an umbrella, and kneeling down to ask her questions with gentle concern.

"When I was most fearful and helpless, it was you who saved me..."

Having said that, if I hesitate any longer, I wouldn't be Gao Dongxu. Yes, a life-saving grace is greater than anything else!
Gao Dongxu reached out and lifted Xu Qin's cool, fair, and delicate chin. Under the gaze of her shy and beautiful eyes, he leaned forward and kissed her moist red lips.

To resolve an all-yin fate and obtain the greatest benefit is no easy task.

Not only does it require cooperation from both sides, but Gao Dongxu also needs to continuously practice the Nine-One Method from the Taoist tradition he received from the old Taoist Xuandong, as well as the Zhou Tian Xing Gong (circular qi cultivation) for one to two hours to complete the task.

As for Gao Dongxu's claim that he has a pure Yang destiny, he was just saying it casually, and whether it's true or not is not important.

The key is that Xu Qin's all-yin destiny chart is real. Her type of destiny chart is like a special cocktail, initially cold, but with a sweet aftertaste.

As for labels like "husband-killer" or "lonely," Gao Dongxu didn't care at all. Instead of dwelling on them, he preferred to explore his inner potential. After all, the most magical thing about fate is that it always leaves a window open for those who know how to awaken themselves.
