Mu Miao's soul followed his body and could only keep up with Pei Qingye's footsteps. He got into the car angrily and stayed away from him.
Pei Qingye did not despise it and directly placed the body bag containing the corpse on the cushion. Due to the long time since death, the body began to stiffen. "Mu Mu" could not bend his upper body and his head hit the roof of the car with a bang.
Mu Mu felt a pain in his head as he listened to the loud noise. He said conspiratorially, "Is this man deliberately taking revenge on me? He wants to whip my corpse? Hmm... What a vicious man."
Thinking of this, Mu Miao looked at Pei Qingye even more unfriendly.
Pei Qingye looked impatient and rearranged the position of "Mu Mu". Although his SUV had a lot of space inside, it was still difficult to fit a 1.7-meter-tall boy upright in it.
The driver's horrified gaze had never left Pei Qingye since he got into the car with the body bag. He would go to the temple to pray for Buddha's blessing tomorrow after picking up the body in the middle of the night.
Pei Qingye frowned and stared at "Mu Mu" for a while. Then he simply got out of the car, stood outside the car and placed "Mu Mu" horizontally on the seat, occupying the entire back seat.
After doing all this, he opened the passenger door with satisfaction and sat in.
Mu Miao was surprised that this person would give up his position to him. Why? Did he think he had a dead aura?
Because of Pei Qingye's "glorious deeds", Mu Mu had no expectations of him and always assumed the worst.
Pei Nuo was a punching bag, but Mu Mu was not. He raised his chin and said fiercely, "Don't sleep too deeply at night. You'd better keep one eye on it, otherwise I will let you see what a haunted place looks like!"
Pei Qingye remained silent after getting in the car, and the driver didn't dare to make any sound. Mu Mu's threat went straight into Pei Qingye's ears.
"Haunted..." Pei Qingye looked at the quiet body bag through the rearview mirror. A hint of interest flashed across his unruly face. He said to the pale driver, "Tell me, do ghosts exist in this world?"
driver:"……"
There is a dead body behind the car. Isn't it a bit scary to talk about this topic at this time?
Pei Qingye is at an age of strong curiosity. Like every teenage boy, he has a fanatical pursuit of strange things beyond the mundane.
He didn't think that his brief encounter with Mu Mu was just an illusion. Pei Qingye looked around the car with sharp eyes. He firmly believed that his useless brother had become a ghost and might be not far away from him.
Mu Miao frowned and looked at him as if he had ADHD, twisting his neck to look around, not knowing what the hell he was looking at.
Mu Mu was different. He sat there quietly without moving, being extremely well-behaved. But what he was thinking in his heart was, when would this person be cremated?
Although Mrs. Pei was very annoying, her suggestion to send him directly to the crematorium was a good decision. As long as his body turned into ashes, Mu Mu would be free.
Mu Miao could already imagine his future free life, and two sweet dimples appeared on her face when she smiled.
A shrill scream interrupted his thoughts. Mrs. Pei opened the car door and was about to come in, but she was frightened by the pale body bag and stepped back repeatedly.
Mrs. Pei's delicately made-up face darkened, and her angry gaze fell directly on the driver. "How dare you put such an unlucky thing in the car? Don't you want to do this anymore?! Hurry and throw it away. I'll wash the car tomorrow."
Mu Mu felt despised, and curled the corners of his lips downwards, "I don't want to ride in your car."
Pei Qingye tilted his head and stuck it out from behind the chair. His attitude towards Mrs. Pei was not as respectful as a son would be to his mother. "I allowed him to get in the car. If you have any objections, take another car. Don't waste my time here."
Mrs. Pei's expression instantly turned pitiful. "Xiao Ye, how could you speak to your mother like that? I went through ten months of hardship to give birth to you."
Pei Qingye's patience was about to run out. He pressed his lips into a line, his eyes cold, "Yes, so as soon as you were born I immediately went to make love with your adulterer. It can be considered that I was in your way."
Mu Mu put on an expression as if he was eating a melon and let out an exaggerated wow.
The driver was caught off guard by hearing such explosive secrets of a wealthy family. He wanted to bury his head in the steering wheel, hoping that Mrs. Pei would not notice his presence.
Mrs. Pei was so embarrassed that she felt ashamed. She never expected Pei Qingye to be so disrespectful to her.
The motherly glow faded from her eyes, and she looked at Pei Qingye with only resentment and disgust.
Pei Qingye didn't give Mrs. Pei a chance to think about it. He ordered the driver, "Go."
The driver looked at Mrs. Pei with embarrassment, her face flushed with anger. Mrs. Pei would never ride in the same car with a dead person, and stood outside the car in resistance.
Pei Qingye glanced coldly, the majesty he inherited from his father, a business tycoon, unconsciously showing through, "Why, your hand is crippled or broken, and you still won't open it?"
The driver had no choice but to start the SUV and slowly drive on the road.
Mu Miao turned her head to look at Mrs. Pei's receding figure, then looked back at the boy in the passenger seat. In the dim light inside the car, Pei Qingye's figure seemed to blend into the darkness, looking even more gloomy than the ghost Mu Miao.
Mu Mu searched Pei Nuo's memories but couldn't find any useful information. He could only ask for help: [001, what's going on with Pei Qingye's relationship with his mother?]
001 quickly obtained more detailed information about Pei Qingye's family. [This family is completely eccentric. Pei's father's favorite thing isn't Mrs. Pei, but his work. Because of his work, Pei's father can go years without returning home, not even a phone call. This is why they didn't have children early on.]
[Mrs. Pei couldn't stand the loneliness and found another lover. When Pei's father found out, he was furious and forced the adulterer to leave Yuncheng. It was after this incident that they adopted Pei Nuo and eventually had Pei Qingye.]
[But in fact, Madam Pei didn't care about Pei Qingye's life or death at all. Pei Qingye was raised by Pei Nuo. This is why Pei Nuo went to pick Pei Qingye up from evening study and was then killed.]
Mu Miao was silent for a long time after hearing this, looking at Pei Qingye's broad back. "Then why would he bully Pei Nuo? Pei Nuo is obviously the one who treats him the best."
001 pondered for a moment, "Perhaps it's because the proud eagle will always look down on the timid sparrow, even if the sparrow raised the eagle."
Mu Miao complained in his heart that Pei Qingye was not an eagle, but just a little wolf cub whose claws and fangs had not yet grown, and who could only howl to scare away his natural enemies.
The little wolf cub returned home carrying "Mu Mu" and asked the housekeeper to buy an ice coffin as soon as he stepped into the door.
The housekeeper, who was nearly fifty years old, was so frightened by his words that he fell back, "Master, what do you want an ice coffin for?"
Pei Qingye patted the body bag on his shoulder and said, "Put him in it."
The housekeeper's eyes went dark. He knew that Pei Qingye and Madam Pei had gone to claim the body, but he thought that based on Madam Pei's temper, she would probably just bring back the urn.
But he never expected that Pei Qingye would carry the person back directly. Under Pei Qingye's urging, the housekeeper had to give the order and find an ice coffin for him overnight.
Mu Mu had a bad feeling when she heard that he wanted an ice coffin. She waved her hands repeatedly, "I don't want an ice coffin. Just burn me. I want fire, not ice!"
Pei Qingye couldn't hear his request, walked from the living room to the kitchen, then from the kitchen to the bathroom, and finally went upstairs.
When the housekeeper arrived with the hastily found ice coffin, Pei Qingye made up his mind and pointed to the second floor to the staff carrying the four corners of the ice coffin, "Send it to my room."
Mu Miao: “…”
The housekeeper and others, "..."
In an instant, there was a strange look in their eyes when they looked at Pei Qingye.
Mrs. Pei stepped into the room and tripped over the mat in front of the door when she heard this. She almost fell on the spot. She took off her high heels and held them in her hands. She rushed to Pei Qingye angrily and raised her hand to hit him.
Pei Qingye grabbed her wrist and asked, "What are you crazy about?"
"I'm crazy?!" Mrs. Pei's chest was heaving with anger. "I was just about to ask you what's wrong with you? What? You're not really in love with him, are you? Pei Qingye, are you a pervert?!"
She completely lost her mind and bit her fingers nervously as she said, "I knew it. You don't date any girls all day long. You only hang out with that vixen Pei Nuo all day long. Okay... I guessed it right..."
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Pei Qingye was speechless. He liked Pei Nuo? How could it be possible? He felt sick to his stomach when he saw his frustrated look.
Like him? What a joke!
Mrs. Pei roared, "Then why did you put his body in your room?!"
Pei Qingye asked calmly, "Then I'll put it in the living room. Are you happy with that?"
Madam Pei: “…”
How could she be happy about that? It's not like she never sets foot in the living room.
"Put it in the bathroom, kitchen, toilet...are you happy with that?"
Pei Qingye asked about each place one by one.
Mrs. Pei: "...Take it back to your room."
She still wants this house.
Mu Miao listened to the entire conversation and concluded, "Okay, Pei Qingye was afraid that I would dirty his house, so he let me go to his room."
Pei Qingye called a large group of people to go upstairs, placed the ice coffin in his room, and started the ice coffin after everything was ready. After a while, a faint mist emerged from the ice coffin.
Pei Qingye took "Mu Mu" out of the body bag, placed it in the ice coffin, and closed the lid. He looked at the young man with a calm face, as if he was sleeping, and muttered to himself, "It's you, but it doesn't look like you. Or has death changed you?"
She no longer felt inferior, no longer lowered her head timidly, and dared to look directly into his eyes with her beautiful eyes.
Mu Miao didn't understand what he was saying.
Pei Qingye placed his hand on the cold ice coffin and said, "It's okay. We'll have the answer tomorrow."
Mu Miao didn't understand what he meant at first, until the next morning, when Pei Qing led a middle-aged man in a Taoist robe into the room.
The Taoist priest carried a peach wood sword on his back in a very formal manner, his fingers twirling his two strands of beard. He looked and nodded, and sometimes he would squint meaningfully at a certain place.
He said to Pei Qingye in a deliberately drawn-out tone, "Young Master, there seems to be something unclean in your room."
If Mu Mu had not never looked directly at the Taoist priest from beginning to end, he would have believed what he said.
