Qin Luo lowered his voice and said to Wu Hua, "Baby, it's up to you to get close to Liang Jin. If I go to approach her dressed like this, Liang Yu will definitely think I'm a hooligan and beat me to death!"
Upon hearing this, Wu Hua jumped off the chair and raised her chin at Qin Luo.
Just you wait and see!
After saying that, she ran towards the kitchen with her short legs, calling out sweetly as she ran, "Sister Jin'er, I'll help you start the fire!"
Qin Luo didn't sit idle either, finishing off the tea Liang Jin had brewed.
The meal was ready in no time, and the group sat down around the table.
The table was laden with homegrown delicacies, including a plate of stir-fried cabbage, its color a vibrant golden yellow.
A pot of stewed chicken with mushrooms, its aroma filling the air.
There were also several dishes of pickled vegetables, which were sour and spicy.
Every dish tastes like home, simple yet delicious.
Everyone sat together, eating and chatting.
They talked about their own experiences and interesting stories about their neighbors, and laughter filled the air!
After the meal, Qin Luo and Wu Hua prepared to go to the market.
Liang Yu wanted to go with them, but Qin Luo refused.
"Brother Liang, you have to work tomorrow, you can't afford to not get enough rest! Zai Zai and I can go, see you at the auction house tomorrow!"
Seeing that she refused so decisively, Liang Yu didn't say anything more.
He simply told the two to be careful on the road, and then saw them out of his courtyard.
After waving goodbye, Qin Luo and Wu Hua headed towards the market.
Liang Yu stood at the courtyard gate until the two people were completely out of sight before returning.
As soon as he entered the room, he saw Liang Jin holding two ingots of fifty taels of silver and a note, calling to him.
"Brother, look!"
Liang Yu immediately realized that Qin Luo had deliberately left the silver there, and he wanted to chase after her to return it.
Liang Jin then handed him the note, which read: If we're brothers, don't be shy!
Liang Yu's eyes welled up with tears again today.
"Little sister, how can I repay them?"
Liang Jin placed the silver ingot in his hand and gave him a sweet smile.
"From now on, we'll treat them as our own brothers!"
Liang Yu remained silent for a moment before nodding emphatically.
"good!"
He paused for a moment, wondering if he would be disliked if he treated the other person as a brother without permission.
Then, thinking about Qin Luo and Wu Hua's character, she was able to let go of her inner turmoil.
Qin Luo and Wu Hua walked towards the market, talking about Liang Jin.
Wu Hua recounted her entire conversation with Liang Jin to Qin Luo, word for word.
"As soon as I entered the courtyard, she sensed that I was different, and when I communicated with her telepathically, she did not hide the fact that she was a demon, but instead told me everything directly!"
Qin Luo was taken aback: "Huh? You just asked directly?"
Wu Hua had a look of "of course" on her face.
"What else did you think? It would have been so much easier to just ask!"
Qin Luo gave it a thumbs up in admiration.
"Baby, it has to be you again! What did she say? Was it the same as I guessed?"
Wu Hua shook her head
"They're not the same, but they're roughly the same!"
"Oh~ how is it different?"
"She is indeed Wen Yushu, and she has indeed come to repay a debt of gratitude, but not to repay Liang Jin's debt, but to repay Liang Yu!"
Qin Luo nodded to signal it to continue, and Wu Hua then continued her story.
"It came to the human world to play as soon as it took human form. Because it was ignorant and naive, it was almost sold to a brothel. It was Liang Yu who happened to be patrolling by and found it to be a bit silly. He was worried that it would be deceived, so he followed it and rescued it. He even let it live in his home!"
"Oh~ So those stories were right, fairies love to come and play in the human world!"
Wu Hua slapped her leg.
"Can't you focus on the important points?"
Qin Luo said apologetically, "Excuse me, please continue..."
Wu Hua continued, "At first, it didn't think about repaying Liang Yu. It just wanted to go back to the mountains to continue its cultivation and never come out again! But Liang Yu was so stubborn and insisted on sending it home. No matter how we tried to persuade him, it was no use!"
Qin Luo laughed out loud upon hearing this.
"Haha~ So why did you suddenly decide to repay the favor?"
"It had no other choice but to say that its family were herb gatherers living in the mountains. So Liang Yu sent it into the mountains and insisted on watching it enter the house!"
Qin Luo couldn't help but laugh again.
"Hahahaha~~ What kind of stubborn donkey is he?!"
Wu Hua glanced at her, and Qin Luo immediately fell silent.
He made a zipper-like gesture over his mouth, indicating that he would no longer interrupt.
Wu Hua withdrew her gaze and continued her narration.
"The two wandered around in the mountains for two days. Wen Yushu managed to escape while he was asleep!"
After Wu Hua finished speaking, she looked at Qin Luo. This time, Qin Luo didn't speak, but just looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
Wu Hua shouted at her angrily.
"Why don't you at least try to engage in conversation? You keep interrupting when you shouldn't be saying anything, but when we need your cooperation, you don't utter a single word!"
If it weren't for the fact that it was born alongside Wu Hua, Qin Luo would have suspected that it was going through menopause.
But I still asked a question to cooperate.
"Then what?"
"Then Liang Yu returned to Hanyun County, but it was in a terrible state. It had just returned to its original body to rest when it was dug up by demon hunters and taken back to Hanyun County to be sold to a wealthy merchant!"
As soon as it paused, Qin Luo quickly asked, "And then?"
"Then it struggled to escape, but was injured by the demon hunters and lost all its magical powers!"
"And then I hope I don't run into Liang Yu again!"
Wu Hua denied it, saying, "No, but it remembers where Liang Yu's house is! After that, the two siblings took it in. Liang Yu cooked delicious food for it and even called a doctor for it. After it recovered from its injuries, they sent it back to the mountains!"
"I hope they won't insist on taking people home like last time!"
"No, Liang Yu told him that Liang Jin told him he shouldn't go to a girl's house rashly, as it would ruin her reputation, so he dropped Wen Yushu off at the previous spot and left!"
"Oh! He listened to advice, and then what?"
"Afterwards, Wen Yushu wanted to settle this karmic debt and asked Liang Yu what his wish was. Unexpectedly, he said that he was very satisfied with his current life. If he had to say one thing, it would be that he hoped Liang Jin would get better soon and live a happy and carefree life like a normal young girl!"
"So what exactly is Liang Jin's illness?"
"It says he has a weak constitution, and I reckon it's similar to Qin Yunyuan's condition before. If it weren't for Doctor You's medication keeping him alive, he wouldn't have survived to see you!"
Qin Luo recalled Qin Yunyuan's frail body when they first met, and could imagine Liang Jin's condition at that time.
"Then how did Wen Yushu learn that Liang Jin was dying, and why did he abandon his original body and possess her body?"
Hearing Qin Luo say this, Wu Hua also felt sorry for Wen Yushu.
"If the cause and effect are not resolved, they will be bound for a lifetime. After learning Liang Yu's wish, I left a demonic spell on him to sense his emotions. Then I went back to seek a solution from my kind. But the only answers I got were to turn Liang Jin into a demon or to possess her when she was dying and live out her life in her place!"
Qin Luo, whom he had never met before, was very interested.
How can a human become a demon?
Wu Hua frowned slightly and gripped her hand tightly.
"Don't even think about it, defying fate will bring divine retribution!"
Qin Luo knew it was worried about her, so she patted the back of its hand with her other hand.
"I was just asking casually, I never intended to become a demon!"
