Chapter 223 Binding Spirits
"Jing-ge, the child's surgery went quite successfully, so what difficulties are you facing now?"
I don't think much of Li Jing.
He lacks both ability and responsibility, and is full of cunning and scheming.
But making money isn't shameful; if he comes to us, we'll cut corners if we can.
"There's been a minor mishap!"
Li Jing hesitated, his voice muffled, unwilling to speak.
"What happened, a little problem?" I asked.
"Brother Jing, if you don't tell us, we can't help you!" Fatty Lin said.
"Can we meet and talk about it?" Li Jing asked after a moment of silence.
"Are you coming to Hong Kong Island?" I asked.
"Hmm!" Li Jing replied with a single word.
"Okay, we'll talk when you get here!" I said.
"Do you know our address?" I asked again.
"I know!" Li Jing replied.
"Alright, let's talk about it when we meet!"
I replied and hung up.
"This guy coming after us, it can't be anything good!"
As soon as he put down his phone, Fatty Lin started cursing.
"I know, when he comes, you'll be as dark as you can!" I said.
"Don't worry, he can't get away!" Fatty Lin snorted.
Li Jing arrived the following afternoon.
Perhaps fearing being discovered, Li Jing made a special effort to disguise himself.
He was wearing a hoodie, a mask, and sunglasses, and carrying a tote bag. Even someone who knew him well would not recognize him.
"Chirp!"
After we got to the third floor, before we could say anything, Xiao Ba popped out, pointed at his bag, and called out.
"What's in there? Why is it so full of resentment?" Fatty Lin also noticed something was wrong and stared at Li Jing's bag.
"My little darling!" Li Jing took off his mask, revealing a pale face.
"Didn't you give away the one you used to keep?"
I suddenly remembered the time when Ye Yingzi brought him here before the pharmacy was opened.
I noticed he was raising a ghost that time and advised him to send it away, which he later said he had.
"My master said it was difficult to send him away, so I didn't send him away and kept him somewhere else!" Li Jing said, forcing an awkward smile.
"So what brings you here this time? You want us to help you send him away?" I asked.
I feel sorry for his and Xia Wen's child. With parents like that, it's no wonder she's not doing well!
Both fathers and mothers treat their children as tools.
"No, no!"
Li Jing waved his hand and said, "Thirteen, Xiao Lin, I'd like to ask you for a favor: try to minimize the backlash!"
"You mean you still want to raise this little devil, but he's too resentful, and you want us to help reduce some of his resentment, is that right?" I asked.
"Not one!" Li Jing said.
"What do you mean by 'not one'?" I asked in a deep voice.
"There are two!"
Li Jing held up two fingers and gestured.
"two?"
I was a little shocked.
"Um!"
Li Jing stepped forward, placed the bag on the table, opened it, and took out two dolls tied together with red string.
"Chirp!"
The moment the two dolls were placed on the table, Xiao Ba tensed up again, pointed at the dolls, and cried out.
"You actually have two?" Fatty Lin was a little shocked.
"I have no choice but to raise two; I was forced into it!" Li Jing said.
"Come on, tell me, how did you end up having no other choice?"
Fatty Lin frowned, took out a red cloth, and covered the two dolls with it.
These two dolls are creepy!
They weren't the common Kumanthong dolls on the market, but porcelain dolls. That's not the point. The point is that the corners of the two dolls' eyes, mouths, and nostrils were all pulled upwards in a certain arc, and their lips were painted red. It gave people a creepy feeling.
These two dolls look a bit like the Chucky doll from the horror movie "Child's Play" in America, except they're an enhanced version with red lips.
"I only raised one at first, but after your sister Wen got pregnant, it wasn't convenient for us to be together, so I put him somewhere else to be raised!" Li Jing rubbed his face and sighed.
"And then?" I asked.
"Later, when your sister Wen was about to give birth, I was going to the hospital every day and neglected him!"
"After the baby was born, he had a whole host of health problems. Your sister Wen and I were constantly seeking medical advice and treatment, so we had no time to take care of him at all!"
"As a result, his resentment grew stronger and stronger. He couldn't make amends, and he couldn't get rid of him!"
"Later, the master who helped me summon the evil spirit gave me an idea!"
At this point, Li Jing glanced at the two porcelain dolls covered by red cloth and fell silent, seemingly having something difficult to say.
"Brother Jing, you know the rules of our line of work. If you don't want to talk about it, you can take your two little darlings to the master who gave you the advice!"
Fatty Lin didn't stand on ceremony and even emphasized the word "master".
"I'll talk, I'll talk!"
Li Jing sighed dejectedly and said, "My master's idea was to sacrifice my own flesh and blood to create two little babies. Then he would use his magic to bind the two babies' spirits, making them restrain each other, forming a 'childhood bond' so they couldn't turn against me!"
"Which bastard who gave birth to a son without an anus came up with this idea?"
After hearing this, Fatty Lin immediately started cursing.
Li Jing gave an awkward smile and remained silent.
"You agree?" I asked, knowing the answer already.
"Um!"
Li Jing nodded, pointed to the two porcelain dolls covered by a red cloth, and said, "One of them is my daughter!"
"Which daughter? The one you had with Sister Wen?" I think that's unlikely.
"No, no, no!" Li Jing waved his hands repeatedly.
"Which one is that?" I asked.
"I had a surrogate mother, and I've never even seen her!" Li Jing said.
"You've never seen it before, so you don't feel sorry for it, right?" I asked coldly.
Li Jing fell silent again.
After about ten seconds, he finally spoke: "Thirteen, I won't lie to you, I didn't even see it, so how could I feel sorry for myself? Everything happened in Siam. I just cooperated by providing the seeds; the rest was handled by designated personnel!"
"It cost me a million in total to succeed. I even failed once in between, otherwise I could have spent less!"
"Failure means not succeeding?" Fatty Lin interjected.
"It's not that it didn't work out. The first one was a boy, and the little darling I invited before was also a boy. They weren't a good match. To make it a virgin boy and girl arrangement, I had to provide a girl!" Li Jing explained.
"What about the boy's first time?" Fatty Lin asked.
"It's leaked out!" Li Jing said.
"Fine, you're really something!" Fatty Lin laughed, annoyed by Li Jing's nonchalant attitude.
"What else can I do? I can't just let her give birth!" Li Jing said, sounding a little aggrieved.
"So, the second one was a girl. You turned this girl into a baby and tied her to the one you originally hired!" I said in a deep voice.
