Their words spoken, Jeanne and Huahua subtly glanced at Glasses.
Then, they left the airport together.
...
On the other side.
In a luxurious private estate on the outskirts of Seoul, in the country of Tou.
At this moment, a group of women dressed in maid outfits were cleaning the vast estate. Despite its area exceeding a thousand square meters, they cleaned tirelessly every day. Upon closer inspection, not only were they diligent, but their appearances were all above average, with each at least of medium to high attractiveness.
Furthermore, with the makeup of Tou, their beauty was elevated to another level. However, despite their prettiness, upon closer examination, each of these maids had a dullness in their eyes, showing no signs of happiness.
Just then, with a creak, the door of the main building opened. The sound caused the maids at the entrance of the main building to uniformly stop their actions and immediately look towards the main door.
And then...
A stunning beauty, walking in high heels, entered.
"Master, welcome home!"
Upon seeing this person, all the maids respectfully bowed.
The beautiful woman seemed accustomed to this, casually waving her hand, signaling them to continue their work. She then turned to a man wearing a butler's uniform who approached and asked:
"While I was away, how is the matter I assigned progressing?"
Like the other maids, the male butler was also good-looking, with a very approachable smile, possessing an aura and appearance that could charm women of all ages.
However, despite the butler's high attractiveness, the beautiful woman did not act infatuated. She looked at him coldly, having noticed his hesitation after her inquiry.
Immediately after, the butler knelt and said:
"Master, the foreign ghost exorcists in Tou have decreased recently, and so have the local ones. Your subordinate could only find two who met the attractiveness requirements. They have already been locked in the basement."
"Only two? A bunch of useless people!"
The beautiful woman's gaze snapped over, her voice chillingly cold and unreserved.
Instantly, both the butler and the maids were terrified and knelt on the ground, trembling like cicadas in the cold.
"If you can't find them in Tou, then go to the neighboring Northern Country, or to Sakura Country. I didn't keep you here to be mere decorations; you need to be useful."
"Yes, yes, Master is right. Your subordinate will go now."
The butler nodded repeatedly, not daring to delay, and got up to fulfill the beautiful woman's request.
Subsequently, casting a sidelong glance at the departing butler, the beautiful woman's gaze fell upon the maids present:
"As for you, have you completed the tasks I assigned?"
Upon her words, a leading maid quickly responded:
"Master, we have done as you instructed. The portrait you mentioned is cleaned once every day."
Hearing this, the beautiful woman said nothing and walked directly towards her room. Although she asked as a matter of routine, she wouldn't believe it directly; she intended to see for herself and verify if her assigned tasks had been completed.
Then, the maids understood her intention and followed her as she walked towards her room.
Not long after, the beautiful woman passed through the manor's grand hall and glass corridor, arriving at a room. She pushed open the ornate white door, revealing a large chamber. Inside, there was a classical Western-style bed with a canopy frame. Apart from that, every piece of furniture was luxurious.
However, the beautiful woman paid no attention to these details. Her gaze was fixed on the wall opposite the bed, or rather, on a massive painting hung on the wall facing the bed.
The portrait occupied almost the entire wall, larger than the bed, and was the only decoration on the room's walls. It depicted a handsome man.
It could be seen that the man was very handsome, appearing to be in his early twenties, with a bright and sunny smile...
If Lu Lianxue or Qiu Xiaolin were here, they would surely be stunned upon seeing this portrait. The reason was that the man in the portrait bore a striking resemblance to Zhang Wei!
Not just them.
Even if Zhang Wei himself came, he would be stunned, and not just because the man in the portrait looked a bit like him, but because... wasn't this a photograph of his goofy father?
At this moment, the beautiful woman gazed at the man in the portrait. For the first time, her icy face showed a different expression, revealing a hint of infatuation, an undisguised adoration in her eyes. Even after looking at it repeatedly every morning, she never tired of it:
"No matter how I look at you, Zhang Ping, you're so amazing, ah~"
The beautiful woman reached out and placed her hand on the portrait, even pressing her face against it to rub, as if she could feel the man's warmth this way. Her body and legs trembled with excitement, it was unclear whether she had urinated or ejaculated.
Before she could ejaculate, the beautiful woman suddenly froze, as if she had detected something. Her infatuated smile stiffened, and then she reached towards a gap in the frame on the lower left side of the portrait, where a small strand of hair was caught.
As she picked up the strand of hair, at this moment, the beautiful woman's face lost its infatuation, replaced by coldness. The next second, with a thunderous gesture, as if her hands possessed a terrifying suction force, she remotely pulled the leading maid towards her, grabbed her by the neck, and said menacingly:
"Is this what you call cleaning?! Show me what this is. Didn't I tell you to clean it spotlessly, not a single hair, not even dust? Look at this."
Upon her words, the leading maid panicked, pleading in terror:
"Master, I was wrong, please give me a chance. I have checked repeatedly. It must have fallen and gotten stuck after checking, I..."
Without giving the leading maid a chance to explain, the beautiful woman, still gripping her neck, lifted her up forcefully. No matter how the maid struggled, she couldn't break free. The beautiful woman even unleashed her Ghost King-level power. Clearly, the leading maid was not just a maid, but also a Ghost King-level exorcist!
Yet, even as a Ghost King-level exorcist, facing the beautiful woman's grip, she could only flail her legs uselessly, unable to resist.
"Still trying to resist?"
"No, Master, it was just an instinct."
The leading maid trembled.
Unfortunately, the beautiful woman did not listen to her explanation. With a squeeze of her fingers, terrifying ghostly energy erupted, and she forcefully strangled the maid to death.
Then...
Under the terrified and trembling gaze of the maids, a giant, gentle motherly figure materialized behind the beautiful woman. She reached out, grabbed the strangled leading maid, and threw her into her mouth.
Witnessing this scene, all the maids, even those with strength comparable to the leading maid, knelt down at that moment, none daring to look up.
It was at this time that the beautiful woman looked at the strand of hair in her hand and raised her hand, remotely grabbing another maid from the group.
"Master, no..."
Without giving the other woman time to speak, the giant motherly figure behind her reached out and swallowed the maid.
After doing so, the beautiful woman finally withdrew her hands and coldly looked at the maids, saying:
"Next time, if any of you dare to let your disgusting hair or skin flakes fall onto the portrait, this will be your fate. Remember this."
"Yes! Master!"
The maids dared not harbor any resentment, only nodding respectfully in response.
The beautiful woman nodded and pointed to one of the maids with Ghost King-level strength:
"You will be the new head maid. Then go to the basement and select a woman to fill the vacant servant position."
"Yes! Master, I will go now."
"All of you, leave. Don't disturb my time alone with Zhang Ping."
The beautiful woman waved her hand and continued to press her face against the portrait with infatuation.
