Chapter 358: Ghost Catching Order
"Brother, my hand is fine now. I ate by myself when it was wrapped with gauze. Why do I need you to feed me after the gauze is removed?" Chu Runrun said with a smile.
"That's because I'm not with you. I'm with you now, so do whatever makes you feel comfortable!"
As he spoke, Ning Xuan used a fork to pick up a piece of steak and put it next to Chu Ruanruan's mouth: "Be good, just open your mouth!"
Chu Ruanruan smiled helplessly, and then obediently enjoyed the feeding service.
Ning Xuan has gained experience in feeding his children. He feeds them neither too fast nor too slow. After one bite is swallowed, he takes the next one. His speed is almost the same as when he eats by himself.
Ning Xuan started eating only after Chu Runrun finished eating.
Chu Runrun held her chin and watched Ning Xuan eat elegantly.
Although she had seen him eat since she was a child, Chu Runrun couldn't help but sigh that Ning Xuan's eating manners were really elegant, and he looked so majestic while eating, as if no one dared to move his chopsticks unless he did.
Suddenly, Chu Runrun's cell phone rang. It was Chu Qi calling.
"Hey, Ruanruan, I just got an order, do you want to come with me?"
"Is it challenging? If you are too weak, you won't go." Chu Runrun said.
"Don't worry! This is just an evil ghost. Although it doesn't pose much of a challenge, you have been practicing new formations recently. It's a good opportunity for you to try it out." Chu Qi said with a smile.
"Okay! Here's the address. I'll come over tonight."
"You know this customer." Chu Qi said with a smile.
"I know him? Who?" Chu Runrun asked in confusion.
"It's Murong Hao who gave you the rose pastry last time." Chu Qi said.
"It's him!" Chu Runrun frowned slightly.
No wonder Murong Hao was so full of yin energy when he saw him just now!
"I understand. Let's talk about it tonight!"
After saying that, Chu Ruanruan hung up the phone.
"I'll go with you in the evening!" Ning Xuan said.
"Have you dealt with the company's affairs?"
"It's almost done. Some things cannot be achieved by haste. We have to take it slow!" Ning Xuan said with a smile.
After dinner, Chu Runruan did not return to school. She played outside with Ning Xuan until dark. It was not until Chu Qi called her that Chu Runruan went to meet her.
Ning Yu did not come with them, only Chu Qi and Da Hei came with their dog.
"Why didn't big brother come with us?" Chu Runrun asked.
"I don't know what he's been up to lately. He's nowhere to be seen all day. Forget him. The customer is urging us to go. Let's go!"
Chu Qi brought Chu Ruanruan and Ning Xuan to Murong Hao's house.
When he saw Chu Ruanruan and the others, Murong Hao was stunned for a moment:
"Why... it's you?"
"Mr. Murong, your ghost catching order has been delivered. Wouldn't you like to invite us in?" Chu Qi said with a smile.
"You are a master!" Murong Hao said in surprise.
"Don't you think so?" Chu Qi laughed.
Murong Hao shook his head seriously: "How could the master be like you?"
Chu Qi chuckled, "Who told you that a master must be an old man wearing a Taoist robe and with a beard long enough to be used as a rope? Young people should watch less TV dramas."
"You...you can really catch ghosts?" Murong Hao asked uncertainly.
"Of course, if I can't catch you, I won't charge you. Don't worry! I, Chu Qi, absolutely never cheat anyone in business!"
With that, Chu Qi walked in.
As soon as they entered the house, the three of them felt a negative energy swirling in the house.
Chu Runrun looked carefully at the whole house, but the evil ghost was not there.
"Tell us what happened. Do you know this ghost?" Chu Qi asked.
Murong Hao nodded, then looked at Chu Ruanruan: "Miss Chu also knows him."
"I know him too?" Chu Runrun frowned.
"That's right! This ghost is the one who went to the wrong restroom when we were having dinner at the restaurant the night we first met. That's my eldest brother Qiao Xun!"
Murong Hao looked a little frightened. He drank some water before slowly telling what had happened.
It turned out that after Murong Hao lent Qiao Xun money to pay for his daughter Weiwei's surgery that day, Qiao Xun's parents found him again.
Qiao Xun has a younger brother named George, who is a typical NEET. He is 28 years old and graduated from college but instead of looking for a job, he stays at home and relies on his parents for food and drink.
Qiao Xun's parents have always favored their youngest son. Not only did they allow him to spend all their pension, they also asked Qiao Xun for money to buy him a house.
If Qiao Xun didn't give them money, the two old people would try to commit suicide. Qiao Xun had no choice but to give them the money.
This is how Qiao Xun's wife was forced away by them.
Qiao Xun's parents also rushed to the hospital after knowing that Weiwei was sick, but they came not because they were worried about Weiwei, but because they wanted to see if Qiao Xun had any money.
After learning that Qiao Xun paid 80,000 yuan for surgery, Qiao Xun's parents felt that Qiao Xun must have a lot of money on him that he was unwilling to spend.
In order to raise enough money for their youngest son's wedding, Qiao Xun's parents forced him to come up with another 200,000 yuan.
Qiao Xun doesn't have that much money now. Under various pressures and fatigue, Qiao Xun finally collapsed on the chair at the door of the operating room.
He suffered cardiac arrest due to excessive fatigue and died without even receiving emergency treatment.
Although Weiwei's operation was successful, she lost her father forever.
"According to you, Qiao Xun's death has nothing to do with you, so why is he pestering you?" Chu Runrun asked.
Murong Hao sighed heavily upon hearing this:
"My eldest brother didn't pester me to hurt me, but because he wanted me to adopt Weiwei. Weiwei's mother is missing, and my eldest brother's parents have always favored boys over girls. My eldest brother was afraid that Weiwei would suffer in her family, so he wanted me to adopt Weiwei.
But as an unmarried man, how could I know how to take care of a child? And if I took care of the child, in the future... in the future, which woman would be willing to be with me? So I didn't agree.
Because of this incident, my eldest brother's ghost has been haunting me. I can't even sleep well every day. My eldest brother was a good man when he was alive, but even the best of people will risk their lives for their daughter.
I was afraid that my brother would kill me in a rage, so I could only seek help online during the day when his ghost couldn't appear.
"So you came to me to ask me to help you collect Qiao Xun's ghost and make him die?" Chu Qi asked.
"No, no, no!" Murong Hao waved his hands repeatedly:
"That's not what I meant. Big Brother has done me a favor, how could I want to make him die!"
"What do you mean?"
"I just want you to help me, and ask my elder brother to stop pestering me. If that doesn't work, you can ask him to pester his parents and their family!
He's already become a ghost, so it's fine for him to secretly protect Weiwei, so why does he have to pester me? "Murong Hao sighed.
"Qiao Xun wants you to adopt Weiwei, perhaps because he believes you can treat her well, but his approach is indeed a bit unreasonable." Chu Qi frowned.
"My eldest brother helped me when I was in the most difficult time, which is why I am where I am today. But so many years have passed, and I have helped him so many times. I have already paid back what I owe him.
"I can visit Weiwei as an uncle, but as for me to adopt Weiwei, not only can't I do it, the law won't allow it. I hope big brother can understand me!" Murong Hao sighed.
