I have to get up early tomorrow. If I don’t go back now, I’m afraid I won’t be able to rest all night.
"Now?" Bai Jinglang looked at him and said.
They had only been together for a short while, and he was leaving.
A feeling of reluctance spread in his heart, but Bai Jinglang had no reason to keep him.
"Yeah." Lin Su stood up, put on his shoes, and stroked his hair. "I'll come back tomorrow. You should have a good rest."
"I'll take you there." Bai Jinglang also stood up.
He is a ghost and does not have the fatigue that humans have, but this person is a human being and he cannot stay awake like he used to.
"Okay." Lin Su buttoned his shirt and walked out of the room. Bai Jingjian followed him closely, his eyes full of reluctance.
When Lin Su turned around, Bai Jingtang quickly restrained his expression: "What's wrong?"
Lin Su held his hand and said, "Hold it for a while."
His hands were also warm. Bai Jinglang walked beside him and wanted to hold his hand forever. However, even though the Bai mansion was very big, it would end after going around several corridors.
When he saw the gate, Bai Jinglang pursed his lips slightly, suppressing the reluctance in his heart.
It’s okay. Compared to losing everything, everything is already good now. Even though they haven’t been together for a long time, he can feel that this man loves him with all his heart.
Lin Su stepped out of the door, hugged him in front of the car door and said, "Let's go back."
"I want to watch you go." Bai Jingtang looked up and said, "I'll feel more at ease this way."
"Okay." Lin Su got in the car, turned the car around, and opened the window before leaving. "I'll contact you when I get home."
"Yeah." Bai Jinglang nodded heavily, looked at the raised car window and the taillights of the car gradually moving away, and sighed slightly.
No matter how much he warned himself, he would still feel reluctant to let go, and this reluctance would continue throughout their marriage, until Lin Su grew old...
Bai Jinglang suddenly tightened his fingers. The Ghost King would never die. His time would always stagnate in the past, but Lin Su's time was still moving forward. He was very young now, but one day he would grow old and disappear from his life.
"Young Master, what's wrong with you?" The paper maid asked Bai Jinglang who was squatting at the door hugging his knees.
"It's okay." Bai Jinglang stood up from the ground and said.
Paper maid: "..."
But you don't look like you're okay.
It was actually quite rare to see Bai Jingjian like this. The paper maid didn't dare to ask any more questions and could only float silently behind him.
"When a person dies in old age, even if he becomes a ghost, he will look the same as he did then, right?" Bai Jinglang seemed to be asking himself, or at the same time, asking her.
The paper maid nodded repeatedly: "Yes."
All ghosts know this: when one becomes a ghost, time actually stops forever at the moment of death, and the soul and body are completely in harmony.
Bai Jingtang stopped and asked, "If I were to rip his soul out now and put it into a paper figurine, would he resent me?"
He expected to grow old with that person, but this kind of thing would not exist from the beginning, because he could not save that person, so that person could not die, and he could not accompany him at the end of his life. He could only find a way to prolong his time.
But that is not easy. If you wait until he dies and then forcibly remove his soul, he will not be disgusted when he is very old. But who would be willing to show himself like that forever? The gap will lead to resentment. But if you remove it now, that person will hate you.
"Master..." The paper maid hesitated, "Actually, you can ask him."
But few people who are still alive would want to become ghosts. The creatures in the underworld cannot move freely in broad daylight. Except for the Ghost King, these little ghosts are afraid of the daytime sunlight. In addition, there is also the Heavenly Master. Once they encounter him, their souls may be torn to pieces.
Even though their lifespans appear to be long, their time is actually stuck in the past. They can only watch humans grow and die. Sometimes, they are devoured by endless loneliness and turn into evil spirits.
"I dare not." Bai Jinglang said with his eyes lowered.
He didn't dare ask, for fear that he would feel disgusted when he saw him like this. If he was disgusted and resentful by him, and looked at him as if he were a stranger, it would be more painful than death.
The paper maid didn't dare to respond.
"Forget it, let me think about it." Bai Jinglang returned to the room. The bedding was still messy, and there seemed to be the smell of that person on the bed, a faint smell like the earth and forests, which made him tighten the quilt, feeling as if she was still hugging him.
Is he too greedy?
I already have it, but I still want more.
"What should we do?" Bai Jinglang didn't know who he was asking.
After an unknown amount of time, the phone suddenly rang. Bai Jingtang picked it up and listened to the latest voice message: "Baby, I'm home."
Bai Jingtang was writing when a video call invitation suddenly appeared on the screen. He clicked it without noticing and wanted to hang up in shock, but he heard a man's voice: "What happened? Why do you look so unhappy?"
"It's okay." Bai Jinglang said.
Lin Su looked at his wet eyes and didn't believe his words at all: "Baby, we can't be together forever. You have to tell me if there is anything. If you don't tell me, sometimes I can't guess what happened to you, and you can only feel sad by yourself. After a long time, I might think that you don't need me that much, so you have to take everything on yourself."
"No." Bai Jingtang said anxiously, "I need you."
"Then tell me what's going on?" Lin Su lay on the bed, looking a little tired.
After a busy day and so much running around, the human body will always have a limit.
Bai Jingtang noticed the weariness in his expression and felt even more guilty: "Are you willing to become a ghost and stay with me forever?"
"How to change?" Lin Su asked.
He wasn't angry. Bai Jingtang said, "I'll separate your soul and put it inside a paper figurine. That'll be all."
Lin Su couldn't help but yawn and chuckled, "I thought you were reluctant to part with me, but I didn't expect you were thinking about how to kill me."
"I'm sorry." Bai Jinglang was filled with guilt.
"If it can be done, I don't mind too much." Lin Su found that he didn't have much dependence on the people around him. He could get along well with many people, but he didn't have any feelings of reluctance. He was originally unfamiliar with this world, and the most he came into contact with was his baby, but this trick didn't work.
"Really?" Bai Jingtang asked with his eyes wide open, "Are you really willing?"
"Yeah." Lin Su responded, narrowing his eyes and speaking lazily, "I've asked people who know about this, but other than the Ghost King level, other ghosts can't touch my soul. Even if a Ghost King forcibly strips my soul, it will be reduced to ashes."
