Chen Zhao paused for a few seconds, "Madam, I swear, I really don't know her. Everyone knows I've been single for thirty years, never had a girlfriend, and still don't..."
He paused for a moment, then said, "He's still a virgin."
“Uh…” Lin Xi’s expression was strange. “The divination indicates that you and she have a connection that cannot be denied.”
She added, "A very deep connection."
Chen Zhao was dumbfounded.
No way, has this melodramatic story come true for him?
He wronged a female ghost in his past life, and the female ghost did not reincarnate after her death, but waited in the same place.
In this life, he encounters a female ghost by chance, and they embark on a love story that transcends the boundaries between humans and ghosts.
Then, once he falls in love with her, the female ghost will cruelly dump him.
"I'll make you taste the pain of losing your loved one!"
Chen Zhao became increasingly frightened. "Madam, please save me! I have absolutely no recollection of her."
"If it was a karmic entanglement from a past life, I drank the Meng Po soup when I was reincarnated, so I should forget the past and live this life well."
"If I truly wronged that girl in my past life, I hope to send her to be reincarnated."
Lin Xi said calmly, "Let's find her first. Don't make things up."
Chen Zhao nodded, "Madam, I can't find that road anymore."
“I can find it.” Lin Xi paused for a second. “However, you’ll have to pay extra.”
Chen Zhao: "..."
He nodded vigorously, "No problem."
Lin Xi extracted a wisp of Yin energy from his body and placed it into a tracking talisman.
She closed her eyes and felt the images transmitted by the tracking talisman.
Rain, oil-paper umbrellas, apricot-yellow cheongsams, Western-style buildings...
"Found it."
Chen Zhao was stunned. "Madam, shall we go now?"
"Hmm." Lin Xi glanced at the sky. "It will be almost dark when we get there, just when the female ghost will come out."
Chen Zhao said respectfully, "Madam, please."
Lin Xi stood up, and Fu Jingyao followed her. "I'll take you there."
"good."
The two walked out side by side.
Chen Zhao was extremely frustrated and let out a deep sigh.
If this trip damages Mr. Fu's beloved car, he wouldn't be able to pay it back even if he worked for ten years.
The expensive Mercedes flashed its headlights twice, and a cold voice came from behind.
"Chen Zhao, hurry up and catch up."
"Okay, Mr. Fu."
Chen Zhao quickly got into his Bentley and resigned himself to following them; he was prepared to work for the Fu family for the rest of his life.
The two cars drove into the alley one after the other, and it got darker and darker as they went further in.
Ring ring!
The phone rang, and Chen Zhao pressed the answer button. "Madam, what's wrong?"
"Wait, no matter what you see, don't stop the car, just drive straight in."
"OK."
Chen Zhao gripped the steering wheel tightly, his fingers trembling slightly.
Suddenly a wall appeared in front of us; if we crashed into it, the car would be totaled.
Chen Zhao watched helplessly as the Maybach disappeared into the wall. He stepped on the gas and rushed in with his eyes closed.
Trust Mr. Fu, trust Mrs. Fu.
The car suddenly stopped, and when he opened his eyes, he saw that the two people in front of him had gotten out of the car.
Chen Zhao quickly got down, "Madam, I encountered a female ghost here last time."
Before he could finish speaking, a light drizzle began to fall, just like last time.
Chen Zhao's legs went weak. "She's here, she's coming..."
Lin Xi tossed out a talisman.
To Chen Zhao's surprise, it was as if a barrier was covering him, keeping him out of the rain.
Holy crap! That lady is awesome!
"Brother Chen, Brother Chen..."
A young woman walked slowly by, holding an oil-paper umbrella. She was extremely beautiful, with a faint sadness between her brows.
When she saw Chen Zhao, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"Brother Chen, you've finally arrived."
Chen Zhao's voice trembled, "Madam, it's her."
Lin Xi sized up the person in front of her. "You are a bound spirit."
Earthbound spirits are ghosts who had unfulfilled wishes in life and, after death, do not wish to go to the underworld, but insist on remaining in the human world.
Earthbound spirits can only stay in one place and can never leave until their souls perish.
Just like this young woman, she was trapped in the alley, unable to find peace or a way out.
Based on her clothing, it can be inferred that she lived during the Republic of China era.
What kind of dying wish could have made her wait so many years?
The female ghost walked towards Chen Zhao step by step, her eyes filled with pain, longing, and confusion.
She ignored the other two, her eyes only on Chen Zhao, calling out repeatedly, "Brother Chen, Brother Chen..."
The harder she cried, the heavier the rain fell.
Lin Xi said calmly, "Stop crying, let's talk this out."
The female ghost seemed not to hear her words, her eyes filled with tears as she gazed at Chen Zhao's face.
"Brother Chen..."
Chen Zhao rubbed his head. He felt like he had seen her somewhere before, but where exactly was she?
The female ghost kept calling out "Brother Chen," completely absorbed in her own consciousness.
Lin Xi approached her, but she remained motionless.
The female ghost has been trapped here for too long, and only her obsession has sustained her until now.
Sigh, another pitiful person.
Lin Xi gathered spiritual energy at her fingertips and gently poked her forehead.
The female ghost stood frozen in place, her oil-paper umbrella slamming to the ground, and the rain stopped.
"If I die, I'll never see Brother Chen and the children again..."
Chen Zhao was shocked. How could there be a child?
Lin Xi asked, "You remember now?"
The female ghost bowed slightly. "My name is Lan Yan, and I'm from the capital."
Lan Yan, what a beautiful name. You can tell from the sound that she's destined for a life of hardship.
Love in that era mostly ended in tragedy.
Lan Yan bowed and said, "Miss, thank you for your help. I have nothing to offer and cannot repay your kindness."
Lin Xi waved her hand, "It's nothing, no need to thank me."
Lan Yan bowed again, her gaze slowly shifting to the person beside her. "Brother Chen, is that you?"
Chen Zhao was greatly alarmed.
Oh no! I must have been a real jerk to this girl in my past life.
He laughed awkwardly, "Maybe, possibly, probably?"
Lan Yan scrutinized the face, which was both familiar and unfamiliar, inch by inch.
"Brother Chen, you're dead too?"
"No, I'm not dead." Chen Zhao swallowed. "This matter is rather complicated. Let's forget about the past and cherish the present."
With tears in her eyes, Lan Yan's voice was plaintive as she said, "Brother Chen, you've fallen in love with someone else."
"No, no, no!" Chen Zhao was terrified. "I didn't."
Lan Yan stared at his face, lost in thought again, tears streaming down her face like broken beads.
Chen Zhao didn't know what to do, so he looked to Lin Xi for help.
"Madam, save me!"
Lin Xi looked closely at the two faces and said, "Your eyes look a bit alike."
Chen Zhao looked completely bewildered. "What do you mean?"
Lin Xi made a startling statement: "You and Lan Yan are related by blood."
Chen Zhao was shocked, "Ah?!"
Adding more melodrama to melodrama, his past life and Lan Yan couldn't possibly be...
Chen Zhao, you're such a bastard.
