Chapter 89 An'an...

Seeing his pained expression,

His mother, Gu Meihua, who was also Gu Nian'an's aunt, rushed over crying and hugged his neck tightly: "Waaah... Feiyu, don't be like this..."

His father, Luo Yongnian, the middle-aged man who had been silently smoking, quickly put down his cigarette, came to his side, gently stroked his head, and sighed heavily: "Cry..."

His voice was hoarse, his eyes fixed on the black and white photo frame, then on the urn next to it, his expression incredibly complex: "It's better to cry..."

Even the old lady who was sitting on the ground wailing was startled by him. She immediately fell silent, sitting there dumbfounded, watching her eldest grandson silently shed tears.

The room seemed to fall silent instantly.

Only their heartbroken cries remained, intermittent, sorrowful and powerless.

Looking at the scene before him,

Zhong Wan lowered her eyes listlessly.

He paused, watching the black mist gradually rise from the drawing paper.

Lin Yan'an also witnessed this scene.

As the black mist drifted into the air and then settled in front of them, Gu Nian'an's figure gradually became visible.

They couldn't see his expression, but they keenly noticed the slightly lighter-colored asphalt beneath his feet...

"Big brother!"

Upon seeing him, Niu Niu happily smiled and called out, "Big brother, have you rested well?"

Lu Guodong raised his hand and patted Niu Niu's head, remaining silent.

Xu Siying subconsciously looked up, and when she saw the semi-transparent figure that had suddenly appeared in front of her, her eyes narrowed instantly, and her hands and feet felt a little cold.

ghost?

Is this really... a ghost?

She saw it with her own eyes, heard it with her own ears... and vaguely heard the sound of her worldview collapsing...

Xu Siying raised her hand and pinched him hard.

Huh?

"Ouch! That hurts so much! Honey, what are you doing?!"

Lu Guodong suddenly felt a sharp pain and quickly moved aside to avoid his wife's hand, grimacing as he asked, "Wife, why did you suddenly pinch me?"

Xu Siying was taken aback by what she heard. Seeing the sudden gazes from the people in the room, she quickly shook her head and said, "It's nothing, it's nothing. You can continue, continue."

After seeing them look away, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned her head to look at Lü Guodong, and gritted her teeth: "Does it hurt that much?!"

Lü Guodong felt wronged.

Upon seeing this, Niu Niu's big eyes darted around, and she raised her little hand to cover her mouth, giggling.

Seeing her like this, Lü Guodong and Xu Siying were taken aback, then their eyes instantly welled up with tears, and they both felt a great weight lifted from their hearts.

Gu Nian'an watched silently, observing the affectionate scene between the family of three, a hint of envy and nostalgia flashing in her eyes.

Then he sighed softly, turned his gaze away, and looked at the people in the room.

Seeing his mother and sister with red, swollen eyes and tears streaming down their faces,

His eyes instantly stung, and a slight smile appeared on his lips. He looked calm and relieved.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said softly, "It's my property, I'll take charge of it."

"Excuse me, I'd like to communicate with them myself."

After hearing his words, Zhong Wan and Lin Yan'an exchanged a glance.

Lin Yan'an nodded slightly: "Let's do as he says."

"Um."

Zhong Wan gave a soft "hmm" and reached for the drawing paper.

Unexpectedly, Lin Yan'an picked it up first.

Zhong Wan looked at him in confusion.

Lin Yan'an held her hand, squeezed it gently, and said softly, "I'll go."

Zhong Wan nodded.

Lin Yan'an let go of her small hand, got up, and walked over.

Looking down at the people in front of him, and then at Gu Nian'an's youthful face in the photo, he said in a deep voice, "Gu Nian'an's assets are his own responsibility."

"Who are you?! What nonsense are you spouting..."

"He's dead..."

The group looked up in confusion, staring at the drawing paper in his hand and the semi-transparent figure beside him, and instantly fell silent.

Their eyes were filled with disbelief; some were excited, some were afraid...

Looking at their drastically different reactions,

Lin Yan'an couldn't help but chuckle, then turned and placed the drawing paper in front of the photo frame.

"An'an..."

Hearing Qian Huifang's trembling and choked voice, hearing that somewhat familiar name, as if imprinted deep in his soul...

Lin Yan'an's body stiffened, his lowered hand unconsciously clenching into a fist, then he realized what he had done, a self-deprecating glint flashing in his eyes.

He sighed softly and turned back to Zhong Wan's side.

Zhong Wan instinctively reached out and took his hand, feeling his temperature drop slightly from before, and frowned slightly.

"An'an...I'm sorry..."

"An'an... Waaah..."

"A ghost...there really is a ghost..."

Unlike the others' somber voices, the old woman's screams were shrill and filled with fear.

Zhong Wan and the others subconsciously turned their heads to look.

But the next second, her eyes rolled back and she fainted!

"mom!"

Luo Yongnian was stunned when he saw this. He quickly shouted and ran to the old lady's side to help her up. He then pinched her philtrum hard.

The old woman felt a sudden darkness before her eyes, followed by a sharp pain in her philtrum.

She opened her eyes, trembling, and looked at her son who was so close to her. She burst into tears.

"Waaah... my son..."

"There's a ghost! Mom doesn't want to stay at your house anymore, please let Mom go home."

Her voice was hesitant and fearful. She gripped his hands tightly and urged him urgently, "Let's go now! Let's go now!"

"Okay, okay, let's go now."

Luo Yongnian's expression froze for a moment, then he quickly agreed.

He helped his mother up and carefully led the old lady around Gu Nian'an as they walked out.

Seeing this, Gu Nian'an smiled sarcastically, then glanced at the various expressions on the faces of the people in the room, and said in a low voice, "I would like to talk to my family alone, is that alright?"

Upon hearing this, Zhong Wan and the others stood up without hesitation.

Qian Huifang looked at the hesitant man beside her and said softly, "An'an isn't familiar with you. Why don't you and Yaozu go outside and wait for us?"

"good."

The group left one after another, closing the door behind them.

Gu Nian'an's gaze swept across their faces one by one.

These are his only remaining family members: his mother, sister, aunt... and his brother...

Looking at his brother's pained and self-reproachful eyes,

Gu Nian'an smiled softly: "Brother..."

"An'an..."

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault!"

Luo Feiyu looked at his younger brother with eyes full of self-reproach, feeling even more guilty.

It's all his fault!

It's his fault for messing with his brother's things!

Why...why did you pick up that toy!

Thinking of this, Luo Feiyu hurriedly wiped his eyes, turned and ran into the house, carefully carrying something out with both hands.

He handed it to Gu Nian'an and whispered, "I'm sorry."

"I've tried my best to restore it..."

At this point, Luo Feiyu couldn't help but cry again, his voice choked with sobs, "Waaah... but there's one piece I just can't find..."
