"Father, do you still believe in ghosts and gods? That's ridiculous! I'm afraid the ghost hunter we hired is just a charlatan!"
The man who was speaking frowned slightly, his gentle eyes filled with disapproval. He wore a robe painted in ink, yet his graceful demeanor was undeniable. His upright back resembled a mountain pine, dignified and elegant. His words were so eloquent that they made one feel like a spring breeze. Therefore, Huai's father was not angry, but only sighed.
"Huaiyu, our family is definitely not the only one in the city to have such strange things happen. Although some people don't believe in ghosts and gods, they should still be respectful. I will ask someone to come and take a look. You should go back first. Maybe the master will be here soon."
As soon as Huai's father finished speaking, the servant who hurried in to report the news came to the Huai family father and son, panting heavily:
"Master, Master, the Master will be here soon!"
"So soon?" The kind-looking father Huai couldn't help but feel a little surprised. If he remembered correctly, it had only been a while since he gave the order, so how come the person arrived so quickly?
As for what he just said, he just wanted Huaiyu to ignore the matter, but he didn't expect that what he said would come true.
There is a strange noise coming from a room in the backyard every full moon night. Everyone in the mansion knows about it. Originally, he didn't want to interfere, but everyone in the mansion spread the rumor. If he doesn't invite the master to find out, the rumors will probably become more and more bizarre.
"Yes, master, would you like to go and greet him in person?" Some servants who felt guilty naturally did not mention that they picked up the person at the door, so they had to laugh it off in the hope of fooling the audience. However, they did not expect that the master would put on a solemn expression as soon as they asked the question, and nodded, indicating that they would go in person.
I just hope that person is not a liar, otherwise the head of the family will not forgive him.
The servant took Huai's father to the front hall with a guilty look on his face, while Huaiyu, who was standing beside him, still had a frown on his face. He seemed a little hesitant, but finally decided to go with them to see with their own eyes how the liar cheated others.
"I must not let my father be deceived in vain!"
Huaiyu kept this in mind and turned to follow the servant. The jade pendant tied around his black robe sparkled in the sunlight, then fell gently with the movements of its owner, and hung obediently between his clothes.
Most of the swindlers who roamed the world pretending to be ghosts were dressed as Taoist priests, so when Huaiyu entered the front hall and saw the ghost hunter's face clearly, he really didn't expect that this person would be so young.
Not only is he young, he also looks handsome, and his manners and speech are unrestrained and unrestrained. He doesn't look like a ghost hunter who deals with those gloomy auras at all.
It seems... not like he's a liar?
Huaiyu unnoticeably pushed aside the housekeeper who often followed his father, and stood quietly beside him, occasionally glancing at Tang Yu casually.
Tang Yu, who was invited to the elegant front hall for tea, had already noticed Huaiyu's gaze. Now, even if Huaiyu just stood there quietly, he could easily attract the attention of others, not to mention that Huaiyu would glance at him from time to time.
Tang Yu took a sip of tea and stood up to greet Huai's father. "I heard something strange is happening in your house?"
"That's right! That's why I asked you to come here! If you can bring peace back to our house, I will reward you handsomely!" Huai's father clasped his hands together and spoke sincerely. Although the young man in front of him looked young, the confidence revealed between his brows did not make him look like a quack.
In this case, it’s okay to believe it.
"Wait, you..." The figure who had been silent all this time finally spoke. Huai's father looked over in fear, wanting to remind Huaiyu not to offend him. If he made the master unhappy, it would be a small matter for the master to walk away. But if the master was dissatisfied and did something deliberately, wouldn't they be asking for trouble?
Unexpectedly, Huaiyu didn't even look at him, but continued asking: "...Where are you from?"
"I came from the north." Tang Yu replied with a smile, and while Huaiyu was asking questions, he looked at the man several times openly.
Huaiyu, who has never experienced any bad things, is like a piece of unpolished jade that has been imbued with the fragrance of books and carefully carved. He is gentle yet serious, and his every move is like that of a young master, but without any arrogance. His eyes are level and peaceful.
So this is Huaiyu.
If Huaiyu had not experienced those things before, she would probably be the same as now, right?
"Then why did you go from the north to the south of the Yangtze River?" Huaiyu, who was always gentle to others, rarely acted so aggressively. Even Huai's father felt that something was wrong and kept hinting at him with his eyes, but Huaiyu just looked at the person in front of him and didn't pay any attention at all.
Why do I feel a sense of familiarity when I see this person?
Why did he come to Jiangnan from the north?
Who are you coming for?
Tang Yu's eyes were slightly raised, and her pair of peach blossom eyes were sparkling and full of affection, so that Huaiyu finally had to retract her presumptuous gaze and turn her head away.
Seeing this, Tang Yu said slowly, "I came here to look for someone."
I'm just looking for my domineering wife who has been reincarnated and with whom I had a ghost marriage.
Huaiyu didn't say anything else and was pushed away.
Father Huai came forward and asked with a smile, "Can I arrange accommodation for you first, Master? Then I'll have someone take you to the backyard to have a look?"
Tang Yu nodded: "That's great."
It would be even better if I could live with Huaiyu.
As soon as this thought flashed through my mind, someone spoke up: "He lives with me."
Compared to her previous gentle voice, Huaiyu's tone was now particularly cold when she spoke.
Father Huai: "Ah? This is inappropriate, right? Huaiyu, or..."
Huaiyu stared straight at Tang Yu and said in a resounding voice, "I think my place is haunted too."
There must be something wrong with this person, so it would be better for him to keep an eye on him personally. Although he couldn't explain where the strange feeling in his heart came from, it shouldn't be wrong to put it in front of him.
Huai's father wanted to persuade him again, but Tang Yu stopped him with his hand. He glanced at Huai Yu with a smile and said softly, "Since I have come here, I will definitely help you share your worries."
Father Huai: ...I always feel something is weird.
"Well, Huaiyu, the master will go with you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huaiyu turned around and left impatiently.
Tang Yu slowly picked up the oil-paper umbrella and followed the inky figure.
Oh, that wasn't even teasing, was it? Why was the tip of Huaiyu's ear slightly red?
It's really funny.
