Ming Hong frowned deeply. He had heard the ghost messenger say that this was a deadly question posed by a human girl to a man, and if he didn't answer it well, a slap would fly over.
His dark eyes looked at Linghu Lan, his brows still furrowed: "You might think I'm being perfunctory, but I don't want to lie to you. I didn't have a destined partner until recently, when my red thread started moving."
"Hmm? When?"
April 28th!
Linghu Lan's eyes lit up; that day happened to be the day she transmigrated.
Ming Hong stared intently at Linghu Lan, reaching out to stroke the long hair beside her ear. "I'm conflicted. If it's you, why didn't you appear more than twenty years ago? If it's not you, why did it ultimately come down to you?"
Linghu Lan thought for a moment and then smiled, "It's probably because I blocked you for the past twenty years or so, and then one day, I accidentally forgot to block you?"
Ming Hong: "..."
"Hahaha!" Linghu Lan couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Let me ask you, does this mean you were single for countless years before that?"
Ming Hong: "..."
Linghu Lan laughed out loud again, which was rather unkind.
A hint of embarrassment and annoyance flashed across Ming Hong's face. He reached out and grabbed Linghu Lan's arm, demanding, "When do you plan to marry me?"
"Sorry!" Linghu Lan smiled. "I'm not responsible for saving single people!"
Ming Hong: "..."
Linghu Lan laughed so hard she bent over backwards.
Ming Hong glanced coldly at Bei Yusheng lying on the ground. "Someone just said they owed me a favor."
"Yes, I do owe it."
"My favors can only be repaid by others."
Linghu Lan: "..." She's actually using tricks now? ???
Linghu Lan said slowly, "I didn't say when I would pay it back."
Ming Hong glanced again at the wooden plaque around Bei Yusheng's neck on the ground; the wisteria sapling there was quite lovely and delicate. "I can spare some time to save him."
Linghu Lan: "..." A cunning businessman!
She glanced back at Bei Yusheng, who was still unconscious on the ground. The wooden plaque lay quietly on his chest. When he woke up, he would forget that there was such a person as Mingxiu in his memory.
He might think his face is something he was born with, and then continue his extraordinary life. Hopefully, the second half of his life will bring him good karma and good results, ending this tragic entanglement between the three of them and giving a good ending to this eight-life karmic bond.
After a while, Linghu Lan sighed silently. The matter concerning Bei Yusheng had been almost resolved.
There was one left to deal with. She turned around and looked at Luo Ran'er on the sofa.
Luo Ran'er couldn't help but shiver. She looked at Linghu Lan and Ming Hong with fear in her eyes. The ropes that Ming Xiu had tied with ghostly power were still on her body. The eerie ghostly aura made her extremely uncomfortable. What made her even more uncomfortable was that things were developing in a completely opposite direction to her expectations.
She never expected that Bei Yusheng and Mingxiu had such a tragic relationship, and that the legendary face-swapping plot had actually appeared in the real world.
If that's really the case, then her claim of saving Bei Yusheng is invalid; the ghost is actually on the side of justice, which is truly laughable.
She had always believed that ghosts were evil, and everything she did was to exorcise them, unconsciously placing herself in opposition to them.
