The koi had helped him so much, and he felt that he had almost repaid the favor of saving it. Unfortunately, the koi had not left yet, which showed that it was a conscientious and loyal koi.

Koi is so loyal, so he naturally doesn't want to cause it unnecessary trouble.

That's why he didn't tell his son the truth in the end, and just asked him to keep the porcelain plate.

He also told the koi that if it wanted to leave, it could leave at any time, and it had already owed him enough kindness.

But even after Grandpa Gu passed away, the koi fish still did not leave.

The reason why the koi didn't leave immediately was because it felt that it had not repaid Grandpa Gu's kindness enough.

The grace of saving a life is heavier than heaven.

Such kindness must be extended to at least three generations of the Gu family to be sincere.

So it continued to stay, planning to wait until Grandpa Gu's granddaughter passed away before leaving.

But what it didn't expect was that Grandpa Gu's son, Gu Fengnian, was such a greedy person!

Ever since he accidentally saw it glowing in the middle of the night while drunk one night two years ago, he started making crazy wishes.

He probably thought he was pretending well, thinking it hadn't noticed that he had guessed the koi had become a spirit. In fact, it had already noticed it from the fact that he made wishes frequently after that.

It just thought that if he knew it, then he knew it. After all, they were the children of their benefactor, Grandpa Gu. If he needed any help, it would have been willing to help him if it could.

Who would have thought that this person would treat it like a wishing wall, muttering a few words to it whenever he wanted, expressing his wishes and hoping for its help.

For the sake of Grandpa Gu, the koi endured it and used as much spiritual power as possible to help Gu Fengnian realize his wish.

Unfortunately, patience has its limits, and as it helps Gu Fengnian more and more, the favor it repays naturally increases, and its ties with the Gu family become less and less.

Until two days ago, it helped Gu Fengnian fulfill his last wish, and finally felt that it was almost done.

It has already repaid Grandpa Gu's kindness.

Originally, it thought that based on the frequency of its previous help to the Gu family, it should stay in the Gu family until Gu Jia passed away. However, Gu Fengnian had been asking it for help without restraint in the past few years, and it actually shortened the time by sixty or seventy years.

During the many years that Jinli has been in the Gu family, he has also learned some knowledge about human society, including labor protection policies for workers.

If Gu Fengnian is regarded as its boss, he is simply a black-hearted boss who does not consider its work intensity and feelings at all and only knows how to give orders.

It will not continue to serve such a person!

So after helping Gu Fengnian fulfill his last wish, Koi slipped away without hesitation.

Then I discovered that the world outside was truly wonderful, and most importantly, no one made wishes to it every day and asked it to help fulfill something!

It's free!

When the koi fish said that it was finally free, it happily spun in circles in the water again.

After hearing what it said, Gu Fengnian regretted it so much that his intestines almost turned green.

He never imagined that the koi fish died because of him, because he made too many wishes and made it too tired and hard-working!

If he had known this would happen, he would never have made wishes to the koi so frequently.

He will definitely make the best use of the opportunity and will never look for Koi for any small reason!

Unfortunately, it's too late now. No matter how much I regret it, the koi will never come back.

The more Gu Fengnian thought about it, the more upset he felt and the more regretful he felt. Finally, he couldn't help crying.

"Why am I so confused..."

Gu Jia felt a little embarrassed watching her father cry.

After all, even as her father's biological daughter, she had to admit that what he did was not right.

No matter how good a sheep is, if he keeps plucking it, sooner or later not only will all its wool be plucked out, but the sheep will also run away.

At the very least, the sheep should be given a recovery and buffer period.

Even she understood the truth, but she didn't know why her father suddenly didn't understand it.

I'm afraid they are so crazy because they are blinded by the convenience and speed of "just make a wish and it will come true".

Besides, the koi has helped their family so much, it’s time to let it have a good rest.

"Dad, please stop crying. Let's thank Master Koi and end this relationship."

Part ways amicably.

When Gu Fengnian heard his daughter say this, he finally realized that his life was over and cried even harder.

But he also knew that crying and begging Koi was useless, so he could only accept the reality. With apology and gratitude, he expressed his sincere gratitude to Koi for taking care of their Gu family for so many years.

After hearing this, the koi didn't say anything, just hummed, then shook its tail and dived into the water, completely disappearing from their sight.

Gu Jia watched the koi disappear, hung up the video call with her father, and left with Lin Xi.

She estimated that it would take her father a long time to recover this time.

However, this incident was also a lesson for him, so that he would learn to stop when doing things in the future.

…

After leaving Lianxi Lake Park, Lin Xi asked Gu Jia to take her directly back to the Feng Shui shop.

It was around two in the afternoon when they returned to the Feng Shui shop. Gu Jia transferred the reward to Lin Xi and left. After that, Lin Xi rested alone in the Feng Shui shop.

I don’t know if it was because everyone was out having fun during the holidays, but no one came to the Feng Shui shop to ask her for help in the afternoon, so she was happy to have the whole afternoon free.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Lin Xi left the Feng Shui shop and went to his apprentice Zhang Hejin.

She didn't contact Zhang Hejin the entire day today, for fear of disturbing his conversation with Mo Rong.

When she returned, she saw Zhang Hejin and Mo Rong, a ghost, sitting on the sofa and talking, and they seemed to be chatting very enthusiastically.

Zhang Hejin was holding a notebook in his hand.

It seems that a good memory is not as good as a bad pen.

It’s good to know how to take notes and review them at any time.

Seeing Lin Xi coming back, Zhang Hejin and Mo Rong stopped talking. Then Lin Xi simply asked Zhang Hejin how much he had learned about "ghosts" today, and Zhang Hejin answered truthfully.

The progress is pretty much what I expected.

Lin Xi nodded and asked Zhang Hejin to have dinner first and then take him out for a walk after dinner.

This "turn" is of course not just to let him see the night view, but to test whether what he learned today can be put into practice.

After dinner, Lin Xi let Zhang Hejin rest.

After all, if nothing unexpected happens, he might not be back until dawn, so it is necessary to make good use of these few hours to let him have a good rest.

Zhang Hejin also felt that Lin Xi might take him out to "meet someone" tonight, so he forced himself to go to bed no matter how sleepy he was.

Just after midnight, Lin Xi woke up Zhang Hejin, who had slept for four hours, and took him out.

The house where Zhang Hejin lives is not far from a funeral street. This area is near the old city and the residents around here are generally older, so there are almost no people on the street after midnight.
