Chapter 52: Look at Me

After finishing her words, Zeng Xiaofan disregarded Fan Bing’s pleas and left directly.

Fan Bing, still unsettled, asked her female secretary and the bodyguard driver to stay at home for the time being. She thought she’d let them leave only after confirming everything was fine later.

“Don’t worry, President Fan. Since Master Zeng was confident enough to leave, it means the filth must have gone,” her secretary, Ke Silu, comforted her. Even her tone was filled with reverence when mentioning Zeng Xiaofan.

Fan Bing nodded, “That’s true…”

“Oh, I need to use the bathroom… I’ve been holding it in for ages…” Fan Bing smiled awkwardly and went to the restroom alone.

“Who would have thought that just relieving myself outdoors would lead to so much trouble…” she muttered to herself. “Now I’m at home. Surely I can finally use the bathroom in peace?”

She laughed at herself, turned around, pulled down her tight skirt and delicate lace, positioned herself over the toilet, and was about to sit down.

Just as she bent to sit, there was a loud bang—the bathroom door was kicked open!

A handsome figure, quick as lightning, reached out and stopped Fan Bing from sitting, lifting her up in one motion.

“Aah!” Fan Bing was so startled that her face went pale. When she saw it was Zeng Xiaofan, she blushed deeply, trembling with embarrassment.

“Ugh! Xiaofan, you scoundrel!”

“I need to pee! Why are you barging in?”

“My skirt is down, you’re so annoying!”

“Don’t look! Get out!”

Fan Bing was frantic with shame, but Zeng Xiaofan paid no heed. He gently pulled her behind him and gave a sharp shout:

“Abomination!”

“Where do you think you’re going?”

As soon as his words fell, a star pattern flashed in Zeng Xiaofan’s palm, and he slapped the toilet seat.

A rune flashed with golden light, sounding like metal and stone, and a swirling rune pattern instantly sealed the toilet.

A shrill ghostly scream echoed!

Suddenly, the enclosed bathroom filled with a chilling wind, but at the same time, the golden glow from Zeng Xiaofan’s palm grew brighter.

Zeng Xiaofan strode forward in a seven-star step, each step igniting dark golden starlight, forming a subtle star prison. A shadow darted and struggled all around, but could never escape the circle he traced with his feet.

Another piercing ghost scream sounded. The shadow, suppressed by the rune, suddenly caught fire and combusted instantly, turning into a foul-smelling blue smoke.

Only then did Zeng Xiaofan relax, saying lightly, “It’s done.”

Fan Bing stared at the ashes on the floor, utterly stunned, forgetting even to pull up her skirt.

Still using the hand that had originally supported her, Zeng Xiaofan helped her pull it up. Fan Bing finally came to her senses, hurriedly dressed, sealed her exposed skin, and exclaimed, both shocked and embarrassed:

“Xiaofan… what just happened?”

“Wasn’t the filthy thing gone?”

“How did it end up hiding in my bathroom?”

“You’d left—why did you come back?”

“What happened to it now?”

Fan Bing threw out a barrage of questions in agitation.

Zeng Xiaofan only smiled, “That evil spirit was cunning. It never truly left, only feigned weakness to trick me into leaving.”

“I sensed it from the start, but chasing it head-on would take too much time, so I played along.”

“I knew once I left, it wouldn’t be able to resist… and sure enough…”

“Huh?” Fan Bing snorted, part shocked, part annoyed. “So you knew from the start!”

“You made me bait, didn’t you…”

“And why didn’t you let me sit down just now…”

“Had to lift me up, didn’t you…”

Zeng Xiaofan shook his head, “Bingbing, it’s lucky I did. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be a maiden anymore…”

“What? What do you mean?”

“Don’t you get it?” Zeng Xiaofan smiled.

“That filthy thing disguised itself as the toilet seat. If you’d sat down bare like that…”

“It would have ruined your body, and you’d have bled right into the toilet…”

“It turned itself into the seat, and you couldn’t see it. One sit, and you’d have been finished!”

“Ah!” Fan Bing quickly covered her backside, trembling in fear.

“You… you mean, I almost got assaulted by a spirit just now?”

Zeng Xiaofan nodded, “So aren’t you going to thank me?”

“Thank you, my foot!”

“You knew it was still here and still made me take the risk! You villain!”

Fan Bing chased Zeng Xiaofan, hitting him with her little fists, while the secretary and others had already arrived, alarmed by the commotion. Hearing Zeng Xiaofan’s explanation, they all sighed in awe.

“My god, that evil spirit is so crafty!”

“To think it could come up with such a scheme…”

“Who would imagine getting violated just by sitting down to pee…”

“Exactly. Thank heavens Master Zeng was here!”

“Master Zeng is truly extraordinary!”

“Master Zeng!”

“Master Zeng!”

“Master Zeng!” The secretary and others all clapped and cheered for Zeng Xiaofan.

Seeing this, Fan Bing felt embarrassed to keep blaming Zeng Xiaofan, so she pouted slightly, asking,

“So… are you sure now the filth is gone?”

“I don’t want it popping up again…”

Zeng Xiaofan smiled gently, pressed the flush button, and the ashes in the toilet were washed away completely.

“You saw it yourself—every bit gone…”

“Don’t worry! I wouldn’t lie to you, it’s been utterly destroyed!”

“Alright… alright…” Fan Bing stammered.

“So… can I use the bathroom now?”

“I’m about to explode…”

“Uh… ha ha… of course…” Zeng Xiaofan laughed awkwardly, ushering everyone out.

“Well… nothing more to see, everyone head home, find your mothers… let’s break up! Right, Bingbing?”

Fan Bing’s cheeks flushed as she nodded, “Yes, Silu, you all can head home now!”

“Okay, President Fan, take care and rest early…” Secretary Ke Silu said, then left with the driver and bodyguards.

Zeng Xiaofan followed them, intending to leave as well, but before he reached the door, Fan Bing called out,

“Everyone else can go. Xiaofan, you stay!”

“Huh?” Zeng Xiaofan watched the others leave, and soon only he and Fan Bing were left in the spacious villa.

“Bingbing, really, the filth is gone. You can sleep soundly tonight! If you’re worried, I can leave a couple of talismans…”

“Right, you need to use the bathroom, hurry up before you get sick~”

Fan Bing bit her lip, scolding softly, “Come here…”

“Aren’t you going to pee?”

“Why do you want me to come over? Isn’t it inconvenient?” Zeng Xiaofan was puzzled.

Fan Bing’s face reddened even more.

“I… I’m scared…”

“I want you to watch over me while I use the bathroom…”
