The car soon arrived downstairs at the Zhang Group building.
As soon as Zhang Yuanyuan's feet touched the ground, she looked up and exclaimed, "Wow!"
The office building in front of her towered into the clouds. As far as the eye could see, the glass windows sparkled and were densely clustered together, exuding a strong sense of oppression and fully displaying the appearance of a prosperous metropolis.
The little girl had lived in the mountains all year round, seeing only the continuous mountains and rivers. She had never witnessed such a cityscape before.
Seeing the little girl so surprised, Zhang Zhenwei couldn't help but feel a bit proud. Hadn't the Zhang family worked hard for so many years just to ensure that the child would not be wronged when she came back and could act like a little tyrant?
"Nannan, this..."
"Grandpa!"
Yuanyuan suddenly interrupted Zhang Zhenwei. Her big, round eyes, as round as grapes, stared seriously at him. "There's so much black energy!"
"Ah?"
Yuanyuan pointed to the highest part of the building she could see. "Over there. That's where the most black energy is! Is that Third Uncle's office?"
Besides the prosperous scene, the little girl had also seen layer upon layer of black energy, like an invisible giant dragon, winding and coiling up from the bottom of the building bit by bit, and finally gathering in the office she was pointing at.
At this moment, the black energy had thickened into an inky color.
This was a sign that one could be extremely unlucky and even lose their life at any time!
It was still early in the morning, yet there was already such a deep aura of malevolence. It seemed that the person who had tried to harm the Zhang family was not satisfied with just one attempt. While Zhang Hang hadn't caught him yet, he was planning to strike a more powerful blow!
Zhang Yuanyuan became anxious. "Grandpa, hurry up, hurry up."
Zhang Zhenwei was dragged forward by her. It was really difficult for his old bones.
And from then on, every move of Yuanyuan stunned everyone.
The entire office building in front belonged to the Zhang Group. There were eight elevator entrances in the front and back. It was the rush hour for work, and many people were coming and going, blocking the way.
The little girl let go of her grandpa's hand, trotted quickly with her short legs, and rushed to the four elevators at the back of the building. Just as a group of office workers were about to step into the elevator, she quickly pasted four yellow talismans on the elevator frames with a series of "pops"!
The yellow talismans weren't moistened with water, but they firmly stuck to the spots where her little hands had pointed, without even a slightest flutter.
Suddenly, the originally dim space seemed to brighten up a lot.
This strange scene left everyone in astonishment. They were about to stop and see what was going on with this little girl, but then they saw Chairman Zhang Zhenwei walking in with an angry expression. Frightened, they took a step back and obediently closed the elevator doors.
The little girl wasn't done yet. She turned to her grandpa and said, "Grandpa, haven't the elevators at the back been malfunctioning frequently recently? I suggest suspending their use. Otherwise, something really serious will happen."
Zhang Zhenwei waved his hand. "Someone, temporarily seal off these elevators."
A group of office workers' faces contorted.
Oh no, they were going to be late if they couldn't get on the elevator.
This little brat was really annoying these days!
Zhang Yuanyuan obediently turned around and bowed to everyone. "Sorry, brothers and sisters~ I promise it'll only be delayed for one day!"
The little girl seemed completely oblivious to their expressions. When a new round of elevators descended, she playfully dragged her grandpa into the last elevator that had been temporarily sealed off.
Just as the elevator doors closed, the surroundings suddenly fell silent... no, it was deathly silent.
All sounds were isolated in the entire enclosed space. Even the sound of the elevator's operation disappeared.
The lights on the ceiling flickered on and off, and then with a "pop", they went out completely.
For a moment, it was pitch - black inside the elevator.
Based on his experience of being with Yuanyuan in the past few days, Zhang Zhenwei keenly sensed something was wrong and tensed up his body.
"Nannan, is there something?"
"Yes." Yuanyuan tightened her grip on her grandpa's hand. "But it's okay. It's just some malevolent energy hidden in the company. It'll be over soon~"
There were rustling sounds in the darkness. The old man was so nervous that his palms were sweating. This feeling of knowing that there was something unknown hidden in the darkness but being unable to move was really uncomfortable.
But before he could truly get scared, he saw the little girl casually scatter a few talisman papers, and her little voice was firm.
"The spiritual light shines everywhere. Break through the darkness and see the light. Brighten up!"
Suddenly, Zhang Zhenwei could clearly see with his own eyes that the surrounding darkness was rapidly shrinking, turning into a black mist and then disappearing completely!
And the lights on the ceiling came on again, and the elevator started running smoothly once more!
Ah?
It was really over so soon?!
Zhang Zhenwei was stunned.
Zhang Yuanyuan smiled sweetly. "Grandpa, it's okay. The elevator won't have any problems from now on."
"The company was affected by some things before, so some malevolent energy has gathered. And the elevator shaft is in the dark all year round, belonging to the yin. Most of the malevolent energy has remained here, which is why the elevator has been having frequent problems, but the key to the problem couldn't be found."
"Yuanyuan has solved it now!"
"Ding—"
As Yuanyuan finished speaking, the elevator doors opened. Zhang Zhenwei and the figure standing outside were both stunned in surprise at the same time.
"Dad, Yuanyuan? Why are you here?"
Zhang Yuanyuan looked up and saw Zhang Chen standing tall and straight in the crowd, holding a folder. His black suit was ironed perfectly, and he exuded an air of nobility.
The gold - rimmed glasses on his nose made his handsome face even more eye - catching.
Zhang Chen slowly squatted down and gradually got closer. The eyes behind his glasses also softened a lot.
Yuanyuan thought: Uncle is so handsome!
The little girl threw herself into Zhang Chen's arms. "Uncle! We're here to play with you!"
Zhang Chen was overjoyed and quickly hugged the child. He also helped the old man who had come to his senses out of the elevator, and then laughed helplessly. "Come to play with me?
"What shall we play? There's no amusement park here." Zhang Chen ruffled her hair, his eyes gentle.
However, Yuanyuan then noticed the huge bad luck hovering above his head... and the continuous black mist coming from behind him.
It was exactly the scene she had seen downstairs just now!
Zhang Yuanyuan nervously craned her neck. With a tilt of her head, she saw a man standing behind Zhang Chen. It seemed that the two of them still had some work to discuss.
Yuanyuan gently pushed Zhang Chen.
"Uncle, you go to work first. I'll wait for you to get off work and then we can play together!"
Zhang Chen's heart melted like warm water. "Okay, then you guys go to the office and wait for me first."
"Okay!"
The little girl agreed, swaying her little legs, and led her grandpa into the huge president's office.
As soon as the door was opened, a thick black energy rushed towards them.
However, what surprised her even more was... Uncle's office was super luxurious and super big! It had the same decoration style as Grandpa's house!
This office desk was big enough for her to roll around and sleep on. It was even bigger than her small bed in the Taoist temple!
"Yuanyuan, do you like this big office?" Zhang Zhenwei asked with a smile.
"I like it!"
"Then Grandpa will also arrange one for you? Let you experience being a little boss!"
Zhang Yuanyuan let out a shout and ran to her grandpa's side, staring at him with big eyes. "Really? But that would be a waste!"
Zhang Zhenwei's heart skipped a beat, and he coughed twice.
"Well... then Grandpa will just open an extra company. After you've had enough fun, we'll arrange someone else to work there."
Little Yuanyuan blinked her eyes in surprise!
Could it be done like this?
The little girl swayed her head, shook it, then turned around with her hands behind her back and looked around Uncle's office. Her little mouth kept chattering.
"Let's solve the current trouble first... There are a lot of things that shouldn't be in Uncle's office. Can I make some adjustments during their working hours?"
Grandpa stroked her head. "Sure. How do you want to do it?"
Remembering the big commotion she had caused at home before, Zhang Zhenwei added, "Wait a minute. Grandpa will go and call someone for you."
"No need, no need!"
Yuanyuan grabbed her grandpa and took out a small shovel from her pocket. "Yuanyuan has her own tools!"
Wow, this little girl had so many tools. Was that bag like Doraemon's magic pocket?
Just as Grandpa's mouth was about to curl up into a happy smile, another thought suddenly popped into his head...
This little girl knew a lot of common sense in life because her Taoist master had taken her on pilgrimages everywhere, but she might not know what Doraemon was...
Zhang Zhenwei felt a twinge of sadness in his heart and made up his mind to let her watch more cartoons when they got back. He didn't want her to keep fiddling with these things all day!
And Zhang Yuanyuan had no idea what the old man was thinking at this moment. She obediently stuck out her little bottom and squatted in front of Uncle's office desk.
She knocked on the floor tiles with the shovel, and a hollow sound immediately rang out.
She knocked on the tiles next to it, and the sound was completely different.
She aimed the shovel at the gap between the floor tiles and pried it up. With a series of crackling sounds, when the tile flew up, Zhang Zhenwei's cloudy eyes widened in shock!
The soil under the tile was pitch - black, and there was a plastic bag in it.
Inside the bag was a knife, with a wisp of blue hair and a birth horoscope wrapped around it!
