Chapter 18: So Ordinary Yet So Confident
When Li Manxiang said this, her tone was filled with fear, and she continued speaking after being comforted by Qing Yanrou.
"I was careless and didn't think too much about it, so I just threw it in the trash can outside the dormitory building. But I had a dream all night, and a voice in my dream kept asking me why I threw it away and whether I didn't like it."
"He also said that I was his destined wife and that I could never escape him in this life, and that he would come looking for me. Then, when I woke up this morning, this doll was right next to my pillow!"
"Wuwuwu, Rourou, have I encountered something unclean? Will I die? I don't want to die, wuwuwu..."
After hearing this, Qing Yanrou already knew what was going on. Seeing that Li Manxiang was very worried, she sat down and looked at her.
"Manxiang, I'm here. Don't be afraid. Nothing will happen as long as I'm here!"
Facing Qing Yanrou's calm eyes, Li Manxiang was completely comforted, "I believe you, thank you Rourou."
"It's okay. Now take me to where I found the doll yesterday and we'll go and solve this problem."
After finding a bag to put the doll in, the two of them took a taxi to the residential area where they were yesterday.
This is an old residential area. Yesterday, Li Manxiang couldn't get a taxi near the shopping mall, so she walked here slowly.
"I picked it up here yesterday, but when I looked up I saw a figure moving around on the fifth floor, so I thought someone would come down to pick it up."
"Let's go up and take a look."
The old residential building did not have an elevator. When the two men reached the fifth floor, they saw white cloth and a white lantern hanging on the door of the resident in 501, indicating that someone had died.
Seeing this scene, Li Manxiang was so scared that she grabbed the corner of Qing Yanrou's clothes tightly. The two heard faint voices coming from inside.
Although the room had little soundproofing, the voices were too soft to hear clearly, so Qing Yanrou went forward and knocked on the door.
"Come on, stop knocking, who is it?"
A shrill female voice came from inside. The door was half open, and a middle-aged woman leaned out from inside, looking at Qing Yanrou and the others with wary eyes.
"What do you do?"
"Auntie, don't you know what you have done?" Qing Yanrou looked at the woman calmly and said with a slightly playful tone.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Are you crazy?" He said this and tried to close the door in a panic.
Just as the door was about to close, a white, thin hand was placed in the middle of the door crack, and the slender five fingers grabbed the door that was about to close.
The middle-aged woman was not afraid of her hand being pinched, she just wanted to close the door desperately, "Let go quickly, don't blame me if your hand is pinched off."
But no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't close the door. "Dad, come and help."
"What's going on? You can't even close the door. What use am I to you?" A man approached cursing.
Li Manxiang looked at Qing Yanrou worriedly, afraid that the door would really trap her hand, so she quickly stepped forward to help push it.
Qing Yanrou pulled her over and pushed the door open with force. The woman behind the door and the man who had just walked behind the door were pushed to the ground by the force.
"Get out of here, bitch. You're putting pressure on me. Who the hell wants to die? Oh, there are only two little girls."
The man pushed the woman on top of him away, cursing, and started swearing at Qing Rouyan. When he saw that they were two pretty girls, he immediately put on a disgusting look.
Hearing the noise, two old ladies came out from the inner room. One of them was wearing a navy blue gown and holding a rag doll that was the same one Li Manxiang picked up.
Li Manxiang looked at the doll and hid behind Qing Yanrou in fear, but was still seen by the old lady. She whispered a few words to the old lady next to her.
The old lady helped the couple up from the ground and whispered a few words to them.
The man's eyes became dull when he looked at Li Manxiang, and then he looked at Qing Yanrou with a lewd smile.
Qing Yanrou ignored the man and looked at the old man in the gown with great interest.
Reaching out and pulling out the doll from the bag, he said with interest, "Were you the one who orchestrated the ghost marriage? The doll you made is so ugly."
When he spoke of the doll, his tone was clearly filled with disgust, and he then threw the doll on the table beside him.
"What do you think a ghost marriage is, little girl? What's wrong with it being ugly? As long as it's usable, it's fine." The old lady said indifferently.
"You're so brave to marry a living person in the afterlife!"
After Qing Yanrou finished speaking, she quickly snatched the doll from the old man's hand and tore it into pieces. Suddenly, a young man's cry of pain was heard.
"Ah, give me back my grandson. What did you do to my grandson? Give me back my grandson."
Hearing the man's cry of pain, the other old lady and the middle-aged woman rushed towards Qing Yanrou like crazy.
Qing Yanrou believed that she possessed traditional Chinese virtues and would not bully the elderly, so she took out a talisman and stuck it on the old lady's forehead.
In order to prevent the middle-aged woman from disturbing her again, she also pasted a talisman on her forehead.
The middle-aged man had just heard his son's screams and looked at Qing Yanrou with shock and fear. Now he saw that his wife and mother were unable to move, and he instantly shrank aside, not daring to have any other thoughts.
Qing Yanrou ignored him. He was just a man who was only capable of bullying the weak and fearing the strong. He was not to be feared.
"What are you going to do?"
When the witch saw Qing Yanrou taking action, she knew that the other party was a martial artist, and she was just a person who knew how to perform magic and some unorthodox methods to arrange ghost marriages with living people. This time, she was in trouble.
"I'm a law-abiding citizen and I won't do anything. As for you, someone will naturally take care of you. I'll take care of this ghost first."
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed the male ghost who was trying hard to hide in the shade, regardless of how the two people who were immobilized screamed.
"It was you who entered her dream and harassed her last night," the man who was holding the ghost pointed at Li Manxiang and questioned.
"Sir, I was wrong, I was wrong. Please forgive me. It was that shaman who told me that from now on this young lady is my wife. And she did take my horoscope, so she is my wife. Of course I have to declare my sovereignty."
The male ghost confessed everything tremblingly. When he said that Li Manxiang was his wife, his tone really took it as a fact, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became.
Li Manxiang could also hear what he said, and she was instantly so angry that she was no longer afraid.
A man walked out from behind Qing Yanrou, pointed at the male ghost and said, "Why are you so confident when you are so ordinary? When did I become your wife and you still claim sovereignty? Do you deserve it? When you were alive, you were a greasy, ordinary man who had no ability to marry a wife. After death, you are still an ordinary ghost who has no eyes and can only hide behind people."
"In this life, whether you're a human or a ghost, you'll always be a useless, ordinary man who can only hide behind your parents. Oh, no, you're already a ghost now, an ordinary ghost!"
"You won't have a good ending in your next life! By the way, Rourou, can he be reincarnated?"
Having said that, Li Manxiang stopped and asked Qing Yanrou.
"Yes, but most likely he is in the animal realm."
