"Don't kneel down in front of me, or I won't teach you anymore."

Xiao Yanbao also disliked the scenes of apprenticeship on TV. After being stopped, Li Muhao quickly clasped his hands together and bowed deeply to Xiao Yanbao.

“Master Yanbao, we must have everything that’s shown on TV, otherwise I’m afraid you won’t teach me properly.”

Xiao Yanbao quickly said, "Third brother, please don't call me master anymore. If everyone hears it, they'll think I'm bullying you! Don't worry, I will definitely teach you with all my heart. As long as you're not afraid, that's fine."

As Xiao Yanbao spoke, Li Wanning emerged from the bullet hole, but she chose not to let Li Muhao see her. Instead, she stood behind Xiao Yanbao, smiling as she watched Li Muhao, who was full of courage and determination.

"How about I go and train this kid a bit first?"

Although Xiao Yanbao did not answer Li Wanning, he nodded almost imperceptibly. This was also a test for Li Muhao. If he was frightened by Li Wanning, it would prove that he was not suitable to deal with ghosts and monsters. If he could withstand it, he might be able to ask Uncle Jiangli to see if he could teach Li Muhao some magic or give him the ability to communicate with spirits.

Seeing that Xiao Yanbao insisted on not letting him become her disciple, Li Muhao had no choice but to give up. However, he silently made up his mind to treat Xiao Yanbao as his master in the future, and he was determined to do better than the disciples on TV.

"Alright then, I won't call you Master anymore."

Li Muhao looked around the manor's courtyard, even lingering for a few seconds in the shadows where the lights didn't reach, before speaking mysteriously:

"Do you think there are ghosts in our yard? Why don't we start teaching me right now?"

At this moment, Li Wanning just wanted to show herself and tell Li Muhao, this curious little guy, that not only was there a ghost in the yard, but the ghost was right in front of him.

Xiao Yanbao had no idea that her third brother, Li Muhao, was so eager to learn how to catch ghosts so that he could meet Ultraman as soon as possible. She thought that her third brother had become obsessed with ghosts after the incident at the library.

"Third brother, are you really not afraid of ghosts anymore? There really is a ghost in our courtyard, but she's a very kind and beautiful older sister. Would you like to meet her?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yanbao say that there really were ghosts, and that he could even see them, Li Muhao hesitated for a moment. Then he cautiously looked around the yard, and goosebumps appeared on his arms.

"I feel a bit cold in the yard. Shall we go inside?"

As Li Muhao spoke, he also grabbed Xiao Yanbao's arm and carefully whispered in Xiao Yanbao's ear:

"She can't hear us, can she? I misspoke just now. Let's start tomorrow! I'm not ready today."

Although Xiao Yanbao nodded in agreement to Li Muhao's request, after hesitating for a moment, she still spoke to her third brother, Li Muhao, before entering the room:

"I don't know if that woman will come to see you tonight, but don't worry, she's not scary at all. Besides, you've met her before, and she seems to like you quite a bit, so she definitely won't hurt you."

Since Li Muhao has decided to embark on this path, it wouldn't be a bad thing to let him get in touch with Li Wanning first. If Jiang Li knew that Xiao Yanbao had already started teaching psychic magic in the human world, he would be overjoyed. This would be like helping him rebuild the order of the underworld.

Upon hearing Xiao Yanbao's words, Li Muhao's body trembled violently, and then, as if to encourage himself, he muttered to himself.

"Li Muhao, you must believe in yourself. You are destined to become a man of light. I am not afraid, I am not afraid at all."

Li Muhao shakily pushed open the door, let Xiao Yanbao into the room first, and then quickly slipped inside, not daring to linger outside alone.

"Alright, alright, you guys stop whispering and go wash your hands. We're about to eat."

"Okay! Time to eat noodles!"

Little Yanbao didn't have time to talk to her older brothers. She cheered and ran towards the bathroom with her little feet. She ran very fast, and her third brother, Li Muhao, was also running very fast.

"Don't let Yanbao know what we're talking about yet. We'll find a chance to tell Grandpa and Grandma first. Tomorrow, we'll have the third son keep Yanbao occupied. When she comes back, we'll definitely give her a big surprise."

After everyone was seated at the dining table, Gao Kexin was standing alone on the balcony fiddling with something on her phone when Liang Xunling came over with a cup of hot milk.

"If you want to cry, just cry. Don't hold it in. Your aunt's house is your home from now on. You can stay here without worry. No matter what happens, your aunt will be there for you!"

Gao Kexin turned around, her face dark and gloomy. After a bitter laugh, she looked up at the moon, which was faintly visible through the clouds.

"Auntie, you don't need to comfort me like that. I know the old man doesn't welcome me, especially since my parents did such a thing. How can I have the face to stay in the Li family?"

Liang Xunling quickly placed the milk on the round table beside her, then tightly grasped Gao Kexin's hands, tears welling up in her eyes.

"That's not true. You don't know anything about this, so what does it have to do with you? Don't worry about it. I'll talk to the old man."

Gao Kexin did not answer Liang Xunling, but just stared quietly into the distance. After a moment, as if she had made a huge decision, she lit up her phone screen in front of Liang Xunling.

"Auntie, I definitely can't stay in the Li family anymore. They've already started bullying my little brother."

The phone screen showed Li Muhao kneeling before Xiao Yanbao in the yard. Upon seeing this photo, Liang Xunling's mind went blank, and all she could think of was endless rage.

Li Muhao actually knelt down before Xiao Yanbao. No matter who forced him to do it, I cannot forgive him. I must seek justice for my son.

At the same time, Liang Xunling was also furious with her husband. Why didn't he stop this? Wasn't Li Muhao his son? How could he watch his son kneel down to someone else?

Seeing Liang Xunling's gaze gradually turn cold, Gao Kexin sneered inwardly and then began to blame herself.

"It's all my fault. If it weren't for me, my brother wouldn't have to suffer like this. Auntie, I'd better leave!"

"You're not going anywhere. I'll let you stay here, and nobody can stop you."

The moment Liang Xunling saw Li Muhao kneeling before Xiao Yanbao, her mind changed. She was just waiting to discuss it with Li Qirui before proceeding with the adoption of Gao Kexin.

Send me this photo. Don't tell anyone about this. Get some rest. I'll have someone take you to school tomorrow.

After Gao Kexin sent the photos, Liang Xunling turned around and sat down in the living room on the first floor. She wasn't in a hurry to go to Li Qicheng's place to make a scene with the old man. Since the matter had already happened, she would just wait for Li Qirui to come back and have a proper talk.
