The majestic big white goose spread its wings, shielding the little chick Ann behind it, assuming a protective stance like a mother hen.
With a honk, it spoke, "Ga! Why have you, a ghost, been constantly haunting Ann? Are you planning to harm the little one?"
"You, a wicked spirit, have been pestering Ann, and I haven’t even confronted you yet! How dare you slander me?"
The old man gritted his teeth and snorted, "If I were still alive, I would definitely stew you and have you for dinner!"
The enraged big white goose retorted, "Ga! A ghost who refuses to be reincarnated, do you really think I would be eaten by you?"
"And why wouldn’t I?"
The old man glanced at the plump and beautiful big white goose before him, unable to resist the temptation as he licked his lips.
"Braised goose in an iron pot, roasted goose, Cantonese-style roasted goose, nourishing goose soup..."
If only he were still alive, life would be so good!
He could enjoy all kinds of delicacies!
Being a ghost was truly miserable, devoid of any culinary pleasures.
At most, one could nibble on dry candles and choke on the fragrant ashes.
Qin Sui’an understood that the old man was listing various dishes, perhaps even planning a grand feast centered around geese.
She immediately hugged the big white goose and shook her little head, "Grandpa, you can’t eat the big white goose!"
"Oh, I wasn’t planning to eat it."
The old man quickly tried to appease her, "This is Ann’s big white goose, how could I possibly eat it?"
"Ga!"
The big white goose didn’t believe his ghostly words, seeing right through his deception.
The old man couldn’t be bothered with the big white goose and floated to the other side of Ann.
"Ann, I heard your father is planning some kind of banquet.
Is your father wealthy?"
"Emm..."
Qin Sui’an pondered seriously.
Her father worked every day and was always busy.
She shook her little head, "Daddy doesn’t have money! Daddy has to work and earn money!"
"If he has no money, how can he afford to host a banquet?"
The old man stroked his white beard and looked around.
"It’s not possible. Ann, your house seems quite big!"
He didn’t appear much during the day, but at night, he would float around the entire bay, exploring for a long time without getting tired.
Qin Sui’an thought carefully again, nodding her little head modestly.
"Ann’s house is a little bit big!" 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖
The old man couldn’t help but be curious, "Ann, what does your father do for a living?"
Having traveled back and forth between the underworld and the human realm, he could only see Ann’s face clearly, while others had their faces blurred.
Ann was not only cute but also well-behaved and kind-hearted, which made him reluctant to leave.
Her father’s voice sounded like he was in his twenties, young and able to live in such a large house.
He must have some ability.
Although the old man didn’t want to admit it, he couldn’t help but sigh, "The younger generation surpasses the older generation."
Qin Sui’an had accompanied her daddy to work before, gesturing with her little hands as she spoke in a childish voice, "Daddy is very busy at work.
He has meetings, looks at the computer, looks at his phone, looks at big notebooks, and even writes."
"Sounds like someone in management."
The old man stroked his beard again.
"Is your father an executive?"
Qin Sui’an didn’t understand and tilted her little head.
"What’s an executive?"
The old man explained, "It refers to high-level managers, like CEOs, general managers, chairmen, and so on."
Qin Sui’an’s eyes lit up, unable to hide her pride in her childish voice.
"Ann knows! Daddy is a CEO!"
Pausing for a moment, she patted her little belly and added, "Ann is also a chairman!"
"You?" The old man widened his eyes, suppressing his laughter.
"Ann, you’re only three or four years old.
How could you be an executive?" Frowning, Qin Sui’an solemnly nodded her little head.
"Ann is indeed one."
"Well then, Ann, what are you? Are you also a CEO?"
The old man followed her words and asked.
Qin Sui’an proudly declared once again, "Ann is a chairman!"
This time, the old man couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter.
"Haha, Ann is a chairman?"
Seeing him mocking Ann, the big white goose angrily pecked at his ghostly figure.
"Ga! Ann is indeed a chairman! I can testify! Yesterday’s guests called Ann ’Chairman Qin’!" Qin Sui’an vigorously nodded her little head.
"Yes! Ann is! Chairman Qin!" That’s how Bai Zhou’s father addressed her!
"Chairman Qin?" The old man abruptly stopped laughing, surprised as he asked,
"Ann, is your surname Qin?"
"Yes!" Qin Sui’an counted on her little fingers.
"Grandpa’s surname is Qin, Daddy’s surname is Qin, Eldest Brother’s surname is Qin, Second Brother’s surname is Qin, Fifth Brother’s surname is Qin, Sixth Brother’s surname is Qin! Ann’s surname is also Qin!"
The old man became excited and slapped his thigh, "Ah, I also have the surname Qin!"
"The old man also has the surname Qin," Qin Sui’an added, raising another little finger, "We all have the surname Qin."
"How coincidental!"
The old man happily twirled in the flower bushes, "No wonder I immediately liked you, little child! It turns out we share the surname Qin! Perhaps we even have the same ancestor!"
The old man floated back to Ann’s side and asked, "Ann, what is your father’s name?"
"Daddy’s name is Qin..."
Before Qin Sui’an could finish speaking, suddenly, a voice came from outside the flower bushes: "Ann, who are you talking to?"
The old man sensed the radiant Buddha light and his entire soul trembled.
He quickly slipped away, saying, "Ann, I will come to see you again next time!"
Qin Sui’an blinked in confusion, and the next moment, she saw her Eldest Brother returning, "Eldest Brother!"
After Qin Fujia returned to the villa, he took a detour and quietly approached the garden.
He couldn’t hear what that filthy creature was saying, but he heard what Ann said.
When he heard that Ann was about to reveal their family name, Qin Fujia quickly spoke up to stop her.
It was rumored that some evil spirits liked to call out people’s names in the middle of the night, and if they received a response, something bad would happen.
He wouldn’t let that happen.
Qin Fujia sat next to Ann and gently asked, "Who is Ann talking to?"
"Emm..."
Qin Sui’an lowered her small head nervously and dared not look at her Eldest Brother.
Qin Fujia softly embraced her and asked again, "Is it a secret between Ann and the other person? Can’t Ann tell me?"
She shook her little head, "I can’t say."
"All right then, let’s not talk about it," Qin Fujia rubbed her little head.
Qin Sui’an glanced at her Eldest Brother and relaxed when she saw that he wasn’t angry.
Then, she saw her Eldest Brother take off his Buddhist beads and put them on her small hand.
She blinked her round eyes in confusion, "Eldest Brother?"
Qin Fujia raised the corner of his lips and said, "These Buddhist beads can ward off disasters and evil spirits. I’m giving them to Ann."
Qin Sui’an shook her head, "Ann doesn’t want them. Eldest Brother said these Buddhist beads are related to Daddy and Mommy."
A hint of surprise flashed in Qin Fujia’s eyes.
He had only mentioned it briefly at that time, but he didn’t expect Ann to remember.
