The aunt and niece have had a deep bond since childhood. Yan Chiyu knows Yan Yaru's preferences better than she does herself, so he ordered all the dishes that Yan Yaru likes to eat.
"Not bad." Yan Yaru took a couple of bites and responded, "You can come more often in the future. By the way, Xiao Yu."
The boy lowered his head and took a sip of the medicinal soup. "What?"
Yan Yaru took a small black bag out of her purse. Before handing it to Yan Chiyu, she suddenly said seriously, "This contains some information you asked me to find before. Your aunt openly peeked at it."
Wu Cunxu raised an eyebrow: "..." These two, aunt and niece, are truly cut from the same cloth.
Yan Chiyu glanced at him sideways, "So?"
"I personally think it's best if you don't watch it, because watching it might affect or even disrupt your current life." Yan Yaru said seriously, emphasizing the last few words as if she were warning him.
Yan Chiyu was taken aback. He didn't have many weaknesses. There were few things in this world that could disrupt his peaceful life, but if his aunt said that, it could only be that one thing.
The boy hesitated for a few moments, then nodded and said, "I can accept it."
Yan Yaru raised her willow-leaf eyebrows slightly, gave a soft "hmm," and handed the black bag to Yan Chiyu.
The boy didn't open it immediately, but placed it behind his back.
He continued eating, but his gaze suddenly fell on Wu Cunxu. "Mr. Wu, is there anything I can do for you here?"
Yan Yaru replied, "I was chatting with Cunxu yesterday, and we happened to talk about you. He said he had something to ask you."
The boy looked up and saw eyes as black as ink, like a deep pool in the still night, clear and profound.
"Student Yan, since I've come to ask you for advice, I won't hide anything from you. For so many years, the Wu family has believed that only women can see ghosts and such. The women of the Wu family have always been few in number, which means they are born into a princess-like family. Of course, we love both boys and girls very much, but this also brings countless troubles, big and small, to Xiao Nian and Yue Yue."
The reason my second uncle and his family of three left home all those years ago was for this very reason. And before they left, they even had someone seal away Wu Yue's ability to see ghosts. It's just unexpected that she can see ghosts now too. We have no way of knowing when the seal disappeared.
"Yan, since you're skilled in this area, could you please seal or remove Xiao Nian's ability to see ghosts? I just want her to live a normal life."
Wu Cunxu had previously consulted Wu Nian, who was willing to have this ability removed, otherwise she was terrified every time she got up to go to the toilet in the middle of the night.
"seal?"
Yan Chiyu pondered these two words carefully, a sense of doubt creeping in. The mention of a seal—if Wu Cunxu hadn't misremembered—no, how could he possibly misremember something so important? It meant the seal was incredibly powerful and deeply concealed. Otherwise, how could he, with his abilities, have failed to detect any seal after seeing Wu Cunxu so many times?
it's out of the question.
Or, there's another possibility...
"Student Yan?"
Seeing that the boy remained silent, Wu Cunxu's heart sank slightly. "Is this matter very troublesome, Yan?"
Yan Yaru glanced at her anxious friend, then looked at her calm nephew, and called out, "Xiao Yu."
“…Hmm?” Yan Chiyu came back to his senses.
Wu Cunxu asked again, "Will this matter be very troublesome? Is it possible to seal Xiao Nian's ability to see ghosts, or even Yue Yue's ability? My second uncle and aunt also have this idea. They are also afraid that Yue Yue will encounter trouble and distress."
"Not difficult."
The boy paused slightly, "But I don't think Wu Yue would want this ability sealed away."
Wu Songsong's abilities were far more powerful and mysterious than they had imagined, which made Yan Chiyu have another idea.
