Chapter 401: Acquaintance Lao Wang



Even through the door, you could hear the sharp cry.

Lin Xi weighed the ghost in his hand and confirmed that it was a weak little creature with no ability to resist. Then he turned to look at the video doorbell at the door and said to Tang Zongping and his wife in the house.

"Open the door."

The couple hurriedly opened the door and subconsciously looked at Lin Xi's hands.

Unfortunately, apart from seeing Lin Xi making a "lifting" gesture, they couldn't see anything.

After Lin Xi entered the house, she said to the couple, "Close the door. The ghost has been caught."

Ghost, the ghost was caught?!

So what Lin Xi was holding in his hand was that ghost!

She spoke so nonchalantly that they thought she was talking about nothing.

In all their lives, this was the first time they had such close contact with a ghost. After closing the door, they stood stiffly by the door, not daring to get close to Lin Xi.

㹏If you don’t dare to get close to the ghost in her hand.

Seeing this, Lin Xi didn't urge them. If they didn't want to see it, it was fine as long as they could hear it.

She looked away, looked at the ghost in her hand, and asked.

"Who are you? Why are you placing paper money for the dead at the Tang family's door?"

The ghost in his hand was a fat-headed and big-eared male ghost. It looked very big, but in Lin Xi's hands it became a docile little lamb and did not dare to resist at all.

The key is that you can't resist even if you want to.

The male ghost explained with a sad face.

"Master, I'm a good man, no, I'm a good ghost! I'm here to pay you back!"

Pay back the money?

Lin Xi raised his eyebrows.

It seems that my previous guess was correct. Is the sudden appearance of ghost money really related to the debt of Tang Zongping and his wife?

She continued to ask the ghost.

"Do you owe Tang Zongping and the others money?"

The male ghost nodded, his tone suddenly becoming ashamed.

"I borrowed some money from them a while ago, but later on, for some reason, I didn't have the chance to pay it back. I always felt uneasy, so I tried to find a way to pay them back..."

After confirming that the other party was there to repay the debt, Lin Xi told Tang Zongping and his wife about the situation, and asked them if they wanted to meet him and inquire about the situation in detail.

When the couple heard this, they were immediately surprised.

In that case, this person must be someone they know.

Someone they knew passed away, and even after his death he didn't forget to pay them back, which made both of them feel a little uncomfortable.

This sadness diluted the fear of seeing ghosts.

Finally, with the help of Lin Xi, the two finally saw the ghost who had been placing paper money at their doorstep for several days in a row.

They did know that ghost, and he was an old acquaintance they had seen for many years.

"Are you, Boss Wang?"

After seeing the figure clearly, Tang Zongping exclaimed in surprise.

Ren Miao had no impression of the ghost in front of her, so Tang Zongping helped her recall.

"It was the guy who opened a restaurant on the same street as us ten years ago when we opened a shop in the next province. You said his food was delicious..."

Hearing this, Lin Xi subconsciously glanced at the ghost.

It turns out he runs a restaurant, no wonder he has this size.

At Tang Zongping's reminder, his wife Ren Miao also remembered it.

But when did Boss Wang owe them money?

How come she has no impression at all?

At that time, she and her husband had just started their business. They opened a small supermarket. Boss Wang opened a restaurant a few shops away. He was the chef and his wife was the cashier. It was also a husband-and-wife business.

However, since Boss Wang spends most of his time in the kitchen, Ren Miao doesn't like to move around, so she doesn't have much interaction with Boss Wang.

Speaking of borrowing money, Tang Zongping touched his nose and replied in a low voice.

"I lent it to him secretly."

He and Boss Wang get along quite well.

Because the two are about the same age, and both are husband-and-wife businesses with the wife managing the money, sometimes middle-aged men may have more topics to talk about.

One time, Boss Wang said he wanted to buy a lottery ticket and buy a big one to see if he could make more money.

But his private savings were insufficient, and his wife did not agree with him buying these things, so he borrowed a few hundred yuan from Tang Zongping.

The amount of money was not much, and since they were so close to each other, Tang Zongping was not stingy at all. He readily took out a few hundred yuan from his own pocket and lent it to Boss Wang.

Boss Wang had agreed to pay him back in a month, but he didn't expect the accident to come so soon. Not long after he lent the money, he received bad news from his hometown that his mother was seriously ill.

Boss Wang and his wife had no choice but to close the store and return to their hometown.

Before returning to his hometown, Boss Wang came over to say hello to Tang Zongping and said that he would return the money to him after he came back.

Tang Zongping agreed immediately and told him to take care of the family affairs first, as there was no rush.

After that, Boss Wang went home. I thought he would come back in one or two months at the latest. Who knew that he never came back since he returned to his hometown.

The store was also sold directly by the landlord.

Out of concern, Tang Zongping also called Boss Wang, but unfortunately the call was connected but no one answered.

Tang Zongping thought he might be busy, so he stopped fighting.

Later, he became busy himself and saved some money, so he discussed with his wife and returned to his hometown.

After returning to his hometown, he gradually forgot about Boss Wang.

They were neighbors who did business together in the past, and their friendship was not that deep. After they moved away from there, they no longer had any contact with each other.

As for the few hundred dollars he had lent out, he had long forgotten about it.

Now that I see Boss Wang, I remember this.

Tang Zongping felt very emotional and couldn't help asking while looking at Boss Wang.

"Lao Wang, you, how did you become like this?"

(Happy weekend everyone, by the way, I'm asking for free love power and small flowers~)
