Three times married to Yama

Chapter 17 My Friend, Her Husband

I replied, "Tell me your story."

The other party said that this matter is very complicated and a long story, and it would be best to talk about it in person.

I agreed, since it's definitely more accurate to see things in person when dealing with this kind of matter.

After finalizing the time and place for the meeting, I quickly changed my clothes and put on a delicate makeup.

As I was leaving, I stood in the living room and called out loudly upstairs, "My lord, I'm about to go out. Do you want to come along?"

"go."

As Yan Jinyue's voice rang out, his figure appeared behind me without my noticing.

"Are you sure you just want to observe?" I asked again to confirm.

He nodded. "Yes, I don't belong to the human world, and I can't interfere."

That put my mind at ease.

I bought a car a couple of days ago so I could get around more easily; I don't want to have to deal with not being able to hail a taxi anymore.

Yan Jinyue and I drove to the coffee shop we had arranged to meet the client. The location was chosen by the client and was not far from where I lived, less than an hour's drive away.

Yan Jinyue sat in the passenger seat, gazing calmly ahead, though the occasional movement of his eyes revealed a hint of inquiry and curiosity about the world at that time.

Lucky Deer Cafe.

My arrival and Yan Jinyue's arrival drew attention from the people in the store. I glanced around the store and then walked directly toward a young man wearing a black hoodie.

Because in the entire store, only he exuded a pink aura that was invisible to ordinary people.

I sat down opposite him. "Hello, Xia Zheng."

He was looking down at his phone when he heard me, and he suddenly looked up at me incredulously. "How do you know my name?"

I introduced myself, "I'm Ah Yin, your client."

He was even more shocked by this. "I haven't even told you what I look like, how do you know it's me?!"

I smiled but didn't say anything, while Yan Jinyue, who was sitting next to me, glanced at me.

Xia Zheng's gaze then held a hint of skepticism. "You look very young. Can you really help me?"

I replied, "Age and ability are not the same thing; you can trust me."

Xia Zheng looked to be only two or three years older than me. The young man was quite handsome and dressed in a clean and sunny manner, but his complexion was not good. It seemed that he had been pestered for quite some time.

Xia Zheng nodded nervously, then looked at Yan Jinyue beside me. "And who is he?"

Me, "my friend."

Yan Jinyue, "her husband."

My smiling face instantly froze.

No? Shouldn't we avoid suspicion in public regarding our contractual marriage? How could he say that?

Seeing my shocked expression, Yan Jinyue's eyes revealed a hint of doubt, "Isn't that right? During our marriage, I was indeed your husband."

I,"……"

Forget it, I'm too lazy to argue with Yan Jinyue about this. He's the benefactor who's going to grant me a hundred years of life in the future, so he's the one who calls the shots.

"Xia Zheng, tell me what happened to you." I got straight to the point.

Xia Zheng turned his gaze away from me and Yan Jinyue. He was somewhat restless, his hands clenched tightly together, clearly very nervous.

"It's like this, lately I keep feeling someone sneaking into my bed in the middle of the night, and a pair of cold but soft hands wandering over my body."

"Every time I have this feeling, I dream of a woman. She is very beautiful and gentle. In the dream, she helps me solve my problems, we fall in love, and she even kisses me..."

Xia Zheng's face flushed slightly as he said this.

"At first, I thought it was because the pressure of preparing for the postgraduate entrance exam was too great, and I was having some romantic daydreams, but later..."

Xia Zheng's gaze turned somewhat frightened, and at the same time, he clenched his fists even tighter, almost scratching his skin.

"Later, the woman in my dream seemed to really appear in my life. I no longer could only see her in my dreams; she would appear in every corner of my life."

"She started affecting my life. Whenever I talk to girls, she gets jealous and tries to take revenge on them. Three days ago, just because I discussed some schoolwork with a girl, she... she actually tried to kill that girl!"

"That girl almost died. She was walking on a road with no buildings around when a vase suddenly hit her on the head. She almost didn't make it!"

"Master A-Yin, I really don't want to hurt anyone else because of her. Could you find the woman who's been bothering me? I want to talk to her."

After listening to Xia Zheng's words, I scanned him and his surroundings a few times. Apart from a hint of pink, there was nothing else about him.

At the same time, I also had some guesses in my mind.

Previously, the page on the book about love and enchantment in the Hundred Ghosts Record lit up, and the commission I received today happens to be related to love and enchantment. Perhaps solving this matter will allow me to learn more about the secrets of the Hundred Ghosts Record.

I said, "The woman you mentioned isn't with you right now. Do you want to talk to her or send her away?"

Xia Zheng suddenly looked up at me, "Send her away, she absolutely has to be sent away, but before that I want to talk to her."

"Okay, so what we need to do now is find what's bothering you," I said. "I need to go to your house to take a look."

Xia Zheng immediately stood up and nodded vigorously, "Okay, okay, my home isn't far from here."

It's getting late, and that's when those things usually come out.

I was about to go to Xia Zheng's house with him when Yan Jinyue pointed to the coffee in front of a girl at the next table as she got up.

"What is that?" he asked me.

I glanced at it and replied, "Latte."

Why did Yan Jinyue suddenly ask this question? Could it be that she wants to try coffee?

Sigh, I was so focused on finding out about Xia Zheng's situation that I didn't even order a drink for myself and Yan Jinyue.

I was just about to order two drinks when Xia Zheng slapped his forehead, looking a little embarrassed, and said, "Look how nervous I am, I forgot to order drinks for the Master and her husband. Wait for me, I'll be right back."

Xia Zheng went to order coffee, while I looked at Yan Jinyue and said, "I didn't expect you to be so curious, Lord."

Yan Jinyue's gaze was frank. "I've been out of touch with the world for a long time, and I'm willing to try all the new and exciting things in this world."

What he said didn't seem wrong.

Xia Zheng returned shortly afterward. He handed me a latte but gave Yan Jinyue an Americano.

Yan Jinyue glanced at it and then took a small sip.

His normally expressionless face furrowed slightly the moment he took the first sip.

"Why is it so painful?" he asked me.

I shrugged helplessly. "Perhaps life is inherently full of suffering."

My words made him frown slightly, and his gaze fell on the latte in my hand. "Yours is different from mine. I want to try the one you have."
