Chen Cheng's soul seemed particularly frail in the night, his eyes full of helplessness and longing, as if he was looking for the last glimmer of hope.
He explained to Chu Chu, his voice trembling slightly. "I really had no idea what to do before, and my heart was filled with doubts and pain. But now, knowing that you, Princess Di, are also in the human world, a glimmer of hope has risen in my heart. Please help me, there are some things I really want to understand. I just want to know if she took my parents' money, and if she really killed my parents. These questions have been bothering me and prevented me from leaving in peace."
Chuchu looked at him, and that begging face really made people feel pity. However, she had to maintain her image as a cold and aloof spiritual master and could not easily show her emotions.
She stared at Chen Cheng coldly, her voice icy and firm. "If you don't trust her, what else can you say? Even though you're dead, your spirit has always been with her. You should know her life best. She works part-time during the summer to earn tuition, takes out loans to go to school, tutors on weekends, and works part-time in the school cafeteria. If she really took your money, why didn't she squander it? Instead, she lived such a hard life?"
Chuchu's questioning made Chen Cheng fall silent, and a wave of sadness surged in his heart. He knew that he shouldn't distrust Zhu Zhu, but he really wanted to hear her say it herself. He begged Chuchu again: "Princess, I know I was wrong and I shouldn't distrust her. But please give me another chance and let me ask her in person. I really want to know the truth so that I can leave with peace of mind."
Chuchu rubbed her brows, looking a little irritated. Before she could speak, the bedroom door suddenly rang.
Song Nuan yawned and walked out of the room with disheveled hair. Seeing Chu Chu still awake, she asked in surprise: "Chu Chu, why are you still awake? I came out to go to the bathroom..."
However, when she saw Chen Cheng's ghost, she screamed and fainted on the ground in fright.
Chu Chu watched this scene with gnashing teeth. Reluctantly, she cast a spell and sent Song Nuan back to bed, ensuring her safety.
At this moment, her door was knocked again. Chu Chu used magic to open the door, and Su Rong stood at the door with a look of surprise.
He looked at the empty room, then at Chuchu, and asked, "I just heard someone scream. Are you okay, Chuchu?"
At this time, Chuchu restrained her magic, and Su Rong did not see Chen Cheng.
Chuchu replied calmly, "Do I look like I'm in trouble?"
However, a new idea suddenly occurred to her mind. She realized that this was an opportunity for Chen Cheng to explain everything to Zhu Zhu in person.
She winked at Chen Cheng, and he immediately understood what she meant. He leaned over Su Rong, and with Chu Chu's help, he instantly became Su Rong.
He looked at Chu Chu gratefully, and then said, "Empress, I'll go wake up Zhu Zhu."
Chuchu nodded and said, "Okay, I'll give you 15 minutes. By then, the Black and White Impermanence will arrive, and you must reincarnate immediately, understand?"
Chen Cheng responded and opened the door to another bedroom. He gently woke Zhu Zhu up: "Zhu Zhu, it's me, Chen Cheng."
Zhu Zhu woke up from her sleep and saw Chen Cheng standing in front of her, her eyes filled with tears.
She reached out and touched Chen Cheng's face, as if she couldn't believe it was real: "Is it really you? Are you here to see me? I miss you so much, Chen Cheng. There are so many misunderstandings between us, and I need to explain them to you clearly."
Chen Cheng looked at Zhu Zhu, his heart filled with guilt and reluctance. His eyes reddened as he spoke, "I'm sorry, Zhu Zhu. You'll have to walk the rest of the way alone. I broke my promise and can't be with you for the rest of your life. But I want to tell you that I've never blamed you. Please accept my parents' money. Don't work so hard in the future. Focus on your studies and take care of yourself. It really hurts me to see you working so hard."
When Zhu Zhu heard Chen Cheng's words, she choked up and said, "They all say that I killed you and your parents, Chen Cheng. What about you? Do you believe me?"
Chen Cheng looked into Zhu Zhu's eyes, his eyes full of determination and trust: "Zhu Zhu, of course I believe you. I know you are not that kind of person. We have been together for so long, you should understand me. I will not let anyone hurt you, let alone let you bear such a crime."
Zhu Zhu was so moved by Chen Cheng's words that she burst into tears. She hugged him tightly, as if wanting to keep him by her side forever: "Chen Cheng, thank you. With your words, I'm not afraid of anything. I know that the misunderstandings between us can be resolved. But you're gone... I'm so sad."
Chen Cheng gently stroked Zhu Zhu's hair, his heart filled with reluctance. He knew he had to leave. He said gently, "Zhu Zhu, don't be sad. I will always be by your side to protect you. You have to be strong and live for yourself. I believe you can do it."
After saying this, Chen Cheng looked at his watch and saw that 10 minutes had passed. He knew he had to leave. He gently pushed Zhu Zhu away and said, "Zhu Zhu, I'm leaving. You have to take good care of yourself, okay?"
Zhu Zhu held Chen Cheng's hand tightly, as if she didn't want him to leave: "Chen Cheng, don't go! Don't leave me!"
However, Chen Cheng's figure had begun to fade. He smiled at Zhu Zhu and said, "Zhu Zhu, goodbye. I will always love you."
After saying this, Chen Cheng disappeared completely. Zhu Zhu looked at the empty room and cried even harder. She understood that Chen Cheng had left and she would never see him again.
However, at this moment, she suddenly felt a warm power enveloping her. She looked up and saw Chuchu standing in front of her, her eyes full of tenderness and care. Chuchu stretched out her hand and said, "Zhu Zhu, don't be sad. Chen Cheng is gone, but he hopes that you can live on with strength. You must believe that he has always been by your side to protect you."
Zhu Zhu looked at Chu Chu, and a wave of gratitude welled up in her heart. She held Chu Chu's hand and said, "Thank you, Chu Chu. I know Chen Cheng must also want me to live well. I will be strong, for him and for myself."
Chuchu smiled and nodded, then said: "Zhu Zhu, I know you must have a lot of questions and confusions now. But the most important thing now is that you take good care of yourself. When you calm down, I will tell you the truth about some things."
Zhu Zhu nodded and wiped away her tears. She knew she had to be strong and face the future. She looked at Chu Chu and said, "Chu Chu, thank you for always being by my side and supporting me. I will work hard to make myself better."
Chu Chu patted Zhu Zhu's shoulder and said, "Okay, Zhu Zhu. Have a good rest first. Good night."
Lying on the bed, Chuchu saw many stars outside the window.
She found that Rong Lin's stars were hidden, and she suddenly lost her sleepiness. Could something have happened to Rong Lin?
Oh, by the way, Su Rong still fainted on the sofa, and she hasn’t dealt with it yet.
