Tang Mingming was indeed understanding; she continued to cry, but her voice was much softer.
She kept crying, and she cried for a long time without stopping.
"Dad, Mom, I'm so sorry..."
"I'm so sorry, I haven't even had a chance to repay the kindness of raising me."
"Waaah, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry..."
...
Midway through, Lu Chi worried that if no one was watching the live stream, the platform would rule it a violation and shut down the live stream.
He had no choice but to quickly leave the bathroom and go to the live stream camera to say to the viewers:
"Don't worry, guys, I'm still alive. I had diarrhea. I just came over to say hello. I'm going back inside to poop."
After saying hello, I went back to the bathroom.
Tang Mingming knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly, expressing her deepest gratitude to Lu Chi:
"My benefactor, thank you! I was forced to commit fraud and harm people while I was alive, but I have never harmed anyone since I died. I thought I would never be able to fulfill my wish in this life, but you helped me realize it. I am truly grateful to you!"
"Thank you, my benefactor! Thank you, my benefactor!"
"I'm willing to be your slave, and I'll do anything for you, even if it means turning to ashes!"
...
Lu Chi shook his head. What could a ghost do for him?
Forget it.
It's quite scary.
Lu Chi continued to persuade Tang Mingming: "I don't need you to repay any debt of gratitude. The reason I saved you is because this building is one my family sold. And you're jumping off this building every night at midnight, scaring the people who bought my house."
Now that group of people are all clamoring for refunds, and my other properties are also affected, which isn't good for my international reputation. So, if you're grateful to me, then stop wasting your time in this hotel and go reincarnate.
"Waaaaah..."
No sooner had Lu Chi finished speaking than Tang Mingming, who had stopped crying, started crying again.
While crying, she shook her head and said, "No, I've already missed three chances to be reincarnated. I'll never have another chance to be reincarnated in this lifetime."
Lu Chi: "..."
"No way? So you can't be reincarnated? You're going to spend your whole life stuck in this hotel, jumping off the building every night at midnight? You have no choice but to jump?"
Tang Mingming shook her head: "The reason I jump off buildings every day is because I have unfulfilled regrets in my heart. This makes me feel restless and anxious at that time every day. I want to atone for my sins with death again and again. I repeat the pain of jumping off buildings again and again, and I am in unbearable pain."
Now that I know my mother has been found, my wish has been fulfilled, and I will no longer attempt suicide. But I have nowhere to go. My benefactor, even if I leave this hotel, I'll be a lost soul.
"I'm afraid I might run into a Taoist priest who exorcises ghosts someday, and he'll take me and beat me to a pulp. Please, have pity on me, take me as your subordinate."
"Huh?" Lu Chi was completely bewildered by Tang Mingming's words. "You can even recruit a ghost as a subordinate?"
Tang Mingming nodded: "Yes, benefactor, please have mercy and take me as your subordinate. Don't worry, I will definitely listen to you and do whatever you ask. I will follow you for all eternity."
Lu Chi: "..." Oh dear, I'm a little tempted, but also a little hesitant.
Will people notice if I bring a ghost with me?
Is there too much yin energy around me?
Will it affect my health and that of my family?
After all, humans and ghosts are different, are you sure you can live together?
Guagua laughed and said, "Host, don't worry. You can take Tang Mingming under your wing. If you can't handle things openly, you can have him do them for you secretly."
Lu Chi: [Then how am I supposed to take care of him? Should I just hold a black umbrella over him every day and let him hide under it?]
Guagua: [No need, no need, host. Didn't I give you a dagger? It's in the system shop's warehouse, which is your space. You can just have Tang Mingming possess that dagger later.]
When you need him, simply think of him, take the dagger in your hand, call his name, and he will appear. When you no longer need him, just send him back into the dagger.
Lu Chi: "This is a good idea, but he'll have to stay with me like this. Isn't there any way to let him be reborn as a human?"
Guagua shook his head: [A person has three chances to be reincarnated after death, but Tang Mingming gave up his chances because he missed his mother, so... he can only be a wandering ghost forever.]
Lu Chi glanced sympathetically at Tang Mingming, whose face was still wet with tears and whose eyes were filled with pleading.
Sigh, this child is quite pitiful.
Lu Chi told Tang Mingming the method the system had given him, and Tang Mingming nodded hurriedly: "Okay, Master, I'll do whatever you say."
With a thought, Lu Chi produced a dagger in his hand.
Tang Mingming transformed into a wisp of green smoke and disappeared into the dagger.
Lu Chi left the bathroom and sat on the bed to continue eating sunflower seeds.
In the live stream, gifts of all sizes kept flooding the screen, making it look like the screen was about to explode with virtual flowers.
Lu Chi didn't care about the gifts; if they had money, they could give them.
Although I'm not short of money, I'd rather have it than refuse free money.
Soon, it got dark.
The number of viewers in the live stream has risen to 50 million.
Everyone was staring intently at the live stream.
Viewers shared various terrifying scenarios they imagined on the public chat.
A group of people below echoed this sentiment.
"Brothers, look! I see what looks like a pair of shoes moving in the corner."
"Where are the shoes? How come I didn't notice them?"
"Take another look."
"I still haven't seen it."
