The elevator went all the way to the top floor smoothly.
Cheng Ji took Shangguan Qing's hand and walked quickly to the president's office.
He locked the door.
Shangguan Qing asked him, "What's wrong with you?"
Cheng Ji didn't say anything, he just lifted her hand and carefully checked her wrist. After seeing that there was no wound, he lifted her long hair and checked her neck, then squatted down and looked at her ankle.
After completing all the inspections, he let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, no one was injured.
Shangguan Qing was surprised by his behavior.
"What's wrong with you?"
Cheng Ji stood up and said, "Nothing, I just dreamed that you were injured."
If she knew that he had exchanged his group shares and marriage contract for her safety, she would definitely feel that she owed him.
He didn't want her to feel guilty.
Shangguan Qing didn't intend to go into details. "Then I'll go back to the antique shop first. Goodbye."
"Wait!" he called to her, "I have something else for you."
Cheng Ji took out a real estate property from the drawer.
"This is a house near an antique shop. It's not safe for a girl like you to always live in a shop. The security in this neighborhood is quite strict. You should live here from now on."
Shangguan Qing looked back and forth between the property certificate and him.
Finally, I couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Do you really think I'm a canary?" She said playfully, "Thank you for your kindness, but I can't use it."
The security of Dengqing Antique Shop cannot be matched by any number of security teams.
There are so many sacrifices there, do you really think they are vegetarians?
Seeing that she was determined to refuse, Cheng Ji didn't want to force her.
"Then can you accompany me to another place? After we get there, I will take you back to the antique shop." he asked.
Shangguan Qing was a little conflicted, but still agreed, "Okay."
......
The two left Cheng Group by car.
Li Yang was driving the car and they were sitting in the back seat.
They drove for a long time, so long that Shangguan Qing even took a nap in the car.
Cheng Ji gently shook her shoulders.
Shangguan Qing opened his eyes sleepily and spoke lazily, "Are we there yet?"
She yawned and tilted her head toward the window.
She was shocked by the four big words on the sign at the door.
"Yong'an Cemetery?" She turned her head towards him sharply. "Why did you bring me to the cemetery?"
She has a taboo against such places.
In the underworld, if a wandering soul that has not been reincarnated goes to a cemetery, the owner of the cemetery will think that she is invading his territory.
Over the past thousand years, she has been to many places, except the cemetery.
"My mom, dad, grandparents, and grandparents are all in this cemetery." He explained, looking a little heavy. "Today is the anniversary of my mom's death, so I want you to accompany me to visit her."
"Oh, yes, I almost forgot, your mother died during childbirth, so today is also your birthday." She murmured softly.
Cheng Ji tilted his head slightly and looked at her appraisingly, "What did you say?"
"It's okay..." She walked forward, "Come on, why are you standing at the gate?"
Cheng Ji's heart felt warmed and he immediately trotted forward, leading the way.
Yong'an Cemetery is the largest cemetery in Country A.
The base number of one of the tombs inside is also seven digits.
Someone cleans the place every day, and there are monks who are responsible for chanting sutras for the salvation of souls.
Shangguan Qing didn't know whether chanting sutras for the salvation of souls would be useful.
After she died, her body disappeared, not to mention anyone chanting sutras for her, there was not even anyone burning incense.
The two walked up the straight stairs in the cemetery, with tombstones with names on both sides.
The longer Shangguan Qing stayed here, the hotter his body became.
She felt truly excluded by this place.
It is like a female soul that has just moved in and is not yet ready for reincarnation. Suddenly, she shows her teeth and hangs upside down in the air.
Face to face, only five centimeters apart.
Two shocking lines of blood and tears, disheveled hair and two big eyes staring.
There was still a smell of blood on his body.
The death was horrible.
"Cough, cough! Cough!"
She couldn't help coughing when she smelled the smell and covered her mouth and nose.
"roll!"
If you're not scared to death, you'll be suffocated by the smell.
Cheng Ji heard the noise, turned around and looked around, but didn't see anyone.
He asked innocently and aggrievedly, "Were you just telling me to get out?"
"......"
Shangguan Qing sneered and pretended to pick at the air in front of him, "There was a little spider just now, it's okay, let's go."
She slapped the female soul away.
The other person seemed a little annoyed and followed her closely, trying to attract her attention.
Shangguan Qing looked straight ahead, only at Cheng Ji's back.
She didn't want to cause trouble here.
Oh no, ghost!
"Do you care about him?" The female spirit suddenly whispered in her ear, "If I go after him, will you pay attention to me?"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Qing suddenly stopped in his tracks.
With the last step, she stomped hard on the steps, making a heavy "bang" sound.
Shangguan Qing stared at the female soul with a vicious look, and a black evil aura emanated from his body that only she could see.
“Try it!”
Shangguan Qing's powerful aura immediately suppressed the other party and made them dare not step forward.
Along the way, Cheng Ji noticed that something was wrong with Shangguan Qing, so he walked down two steps and stood beside her.
Take her hand gently.
"Are you afraid of this kind of place? Come on, I'll lead you up."
As he walked down the stairs and approached her, the sunlight cast a halo behind him.
Bright and dazzling, fascinating.
Cheng Ji took her to the top cemetery area and finally stopped in front of a white tombstone.
The tombstone reads: [The wife of Cheng Guangxuan, from Lanyu.]
There is also a photo of her on it. She is a person who makes you feel warm at first glance.
A woman with a gentle temperament and a sweet smile.
Shangguan Qing raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Ji. "Your personality should be inherited from your mother. It's very warm."
"Maybe." He smiled bitterly, "I haven't seen her, and she hasn't seen me."
He heard everything about his mother from other people.
Cheng Ji swept the tomb and burned incense. Later, he had something to say to Madam Lan alone.
Shangguan Qing just walked around by himself.
Finally, we chose a rest pavilion farthest from the cemetery area and sat down.
"You're obviously dead just like me, so how can you still be with someone?"
The female spirit from before came over boldly again.
She hid beside the green plants and watched her carefully.
This time, Shangguan Qing looked her whole body carefully.
His skin was smooth and tender, so he must be a young man. Although he was wearing shroud, his neck, hands and ankles, which were exposed, were covered with wounds.
And the strong smell of blood on her body...
"How did you die?" she asked coldly.
The female soul shrank her shoulders and hid completely behind the bushes.
Shangguan Qing walked over and found that she was crying silently, as if she had cried many times before.
"You don't have to say it if you don't want to."
She was too lazy to care and raised her leg to leave.
"It's my director!" She suddenly shouted, but then faded away. "I'm the director of my orphanage."
Shangguan Qing retracted his steps and turned around.
The female soul kept pinching another finger, as if only pain could stifle her timidity.
"He is a pedophile. I endured it until I became an adult, thinking that I would escape and be self-reliant when I became an adult. But he found me later. He got drunk and hit me with a bottle. I ended up losing too much blood..."
She died at the age of seventeen, a week shy of eighteen.
"Even if what you said is true," Shangguan Qing looked around at the tombstones, "the owner of a tomb in this cemetery must be either rich or noble. How could the dean be willing to spend money to bury you here?"
The female soul spoke in a low voice, as if it was difficult for her to speak, "Because... he sold me to a rich man who happened to need a ghost marriage."
"His family is very superstitious. The fortune teller said that he must give his son who died early a ghost wife, otherwise he would be very good at keeping his wealth."
Shangguan Qing understood, "So you were buried with the buyer's son."
The female soul lowered her head and nodded.
Once again, the ugly side of society is exposed.
In the underworld, there are too many strange things like this.
So many that she began to wonder, isn't it better to be the Lord of the Underworld than being a human?
"I sympathize with your situation, but I can't help you."
There are too many injustices in the world and she doesn't want to meddle in their affairs.
"Sister! He's still bullying other sisters in the orphanage... Please, I know you're capable."
Although Shangguan Qing had his back to her, she could clearly hear the sound of bones hitting the ground.
The seventeen-year-old girl was kneeling before her.
Shangguan Qing continued walking forward without looking back.
"Sister! It's Sunshine Orphanage, please help them!"
The girl yelled behind her.
......
Shangguan Qing walked to the tombstone of Cheng Ji's mother. He had just finished chatting with Madam Lan.
She hesitated for a moment and asked, "Do you know much about the orphanage in Jing City?"
"I understand. The Cheng family has provided financial support to several of them." He was a little curious. "Why do you suddenly ask this?"
"Do you know Sunshine Orphanage?" she asked in a deep voice.
"I know. It's one of the orphanages funded by Cheng." He also said, "The director of this orphanage is the most active in providing feedback on the orphanage's situation. He is quite responsible. What's the matter?"
Are you responsible?
Shangguan Qing was a little absent-minded. After coming to his senses, he smiled and shook his head, "Nothing..."
After the two walked away.
The girl was hiding not far away, with the horrifying wounds on her body exposed.
"Sister, please..."
And just behind her, a male ghost who was as mentally retarded as a three-year-old child showed half of his cold face.
"You didn't listen and ran out again!" He suddenly laughed loudly, "Mom said you will be beaten if you don't listen! You will be beaten if you don't listen!"
"Beat you! Beat you!"
......
On the way out of the cemetery, Shangguan Qing was in a daze.
The image of that girl hiding behind the green plants and huddling in front of my mind kept appearing, like a puppy licking its wounds and waiting for redemption.
"Cheng Ji, have you been to Sunshine Orphanage?" she asked while sitting in the back seat.
Cheng Ji patiently replied, "No, I am responsible for medical charity, and other people are mainly responsible for these. I only sign the final funding documents."
The group is responsible for many projects and does a lot of charity work.
He can't do it all himself.
“Since you are the sponsor, if you go and see those children in person, they will definitely be happy,” she suggested.
Cheng Ji was silent for a moment, then slowly spoke, "That makes sense, Li Yang, arrange a trip to Sunshine Orphanage."
Li Yang responded, "Yes, Mr. Cheng."
"But why are you suddenly interested in the orphanage?" Cheng Ji asked.
He felt that Shangguan Qing seemed to be acting strangely after going to the cemetery.
