"Let you reincarnate? I'd have to be crazy to let you reincarnate!" Meng Po curled her lips and then laughed, "You're someone Naihe has taken a liking to, so of course I have to keep you here. Although it's getting harder and harder to become a ghost officer these days, who am I? I'm the most senior person in the underworld. As long as I ask, I can get the judge to make an exception for you, and becoming a civil servant in the underworld will be a piece of cake."
It is true that people become ghosts after they die, but they have two choices: one is to be reincarnated, and the other is to stay in the underworld as a ghost official. Not just any ghost can become a ghost official; one must pass an exam similar to that for civil servants before officially becoming a permanent employee.
Feng Guang paused for a long time, then said, "There's really nothing between me and that man named Naihe. I just couldn't help crying when I thought about dying."
"Really?" Meng Po paused. "But I really didn't do anything to you?"
She sighed, "Really, no."
"That boy is really stupid! He can remain unmoved even with a beautiful woman in his arms!" Meng Po slammed her hand on the table, clearly extremely disappointed in him.
After a long silence, Feng Guang finally managed to utter a sentence, "So now you know that there's nothing between him and me, right?"
"I understand, but it's nothing." Meng Po calmed down and sat down, saying mysteriously, "Even if there's nothing between you two now, something will happen in the future. He will fall in love with you sooner or later; it's just a matter of time."
Feng Guang was stunned. "What do you mean by that?"
"What can I do about him..." Thinking of how angry Naihe had just been, Meng Po hesitated for a moment, then changed her mind halfway through her sentence, "Let's wait until he tells you himself in the future. You just need to believe that you and he have an extraordinary destiny."
"Fate? You mean... I came to the underworld twice?"
"The Buddha said it cannot be spoken, it cannot be spoken." Meng Po shook her head like a charlatan, implying that heavenly secrets should not be revealed.
Feng Guang was even more unsure of what Meng Po meant, but Meng Po refused to say more, so she had no choice but to stay with Meng Po for the time being.
In Feng Guang's mind, Meng Po was a bad girl. Now, she was staring at her with the same eyes that she would use to look at her daughter-in-law. Feng Guang felt extremely uncomfortable. In the underworld, everyone except the dead was dressed in ancient costumes. Only Meng Po was an exception, but Feng Guang was not an exception.
Meng Po rummaged through her belongings and finally found a light blue silk dress that she hadn't worn in a long time. She immediately threw the dress to Feng Guang. At Meng Po's insistence, Feng Guang had been working alongside Meng Po on the Naihe Bridge for the past few days.
This job... is to give a bottle of the legendary River of Oblivion water to people who are about to be reincarnated. Once they drink the River of Oblivion water, they will forget their past lives.
Fengguang saw many people who were crying and making a fuss about not forgetting their husbands or wives at the beginning, but after drinking a bowl of water from the River of Oblivion, their initial insistence disappeared, and the person they didn't want to forget no longer existed in their minds. Finally, they calmly crossed the Bridge of Helplessness, walked the road to the underworld, and began a new life.
Feng Guang stood beside Meng Po, picked up a bottle of Forgetfulness Water, and looked somewhat moved.
Meng Po, with her sharp eyes, pulled out the bottle of water from the River of Oblivion. "You can't touch this carelessly. If you drink it, you'll lose your memory. Since you're not going to reincarnate, it won't be fun if you really lose your memory."
