Chapter 243, "Ghostly Fate," concludes the story.
When hitting the door proved ineffective, he simply kicked it. But strangely, the door wouldn't open no matter how hard he kicked it; it remained as sturdy as if it were made of steel.
He immediately realized something was wrong, and then called a master, asking him to come over right away.
At this point, Yang Hui paused for a moment before continuing, "We didn't pay for the script of the movie 'Ghost Fate,' and during filming, an accident occurred, and several people died. However, I gave them a strict order that they must finish filming, or we wouldn't pay them a single penny."
"The more it's like this, the more interesting I feel this script is. Besides, this kind of film has a huge market on a certain website. After filming wrapped, almost all the crew members died, and I became a big gimmick. So, I promoted it vigorously. Don't look down on this film because it's not very good in China and was even banned after some incident. But our films are very popular abroad and make a fortune."
"It's all because of me. I did so many immoral things for my own benefit—" Yang Hui covered her face, unable to face the screen.
Upon seeing this, the guests who had been visiting Yang Hui angrily ran upstairs and berated Yang Hui and her husband, saying, "You two are heartless and despicable. What kind of filthy things have you done?"
"Exactly! I never imagined someone so glamorous on the outside could be so filthy inside. Bah!"
"Hehe, I've suspected they're up to something for a long time. To support their box office, I even invited my friend to go with me. I couldn't go because of something else, but my friend got into trouble. I didn't believe it at first, but now I finally know why my friend died!"
"Pah!"
Everyone got excited as they spoke, "Yang Hui and her husband even invited us to see this movie together! My God, what kind of wicked hearts do they have? Luckily, I don't really like watching horror movies!"
"Ah, I remember now, Old Zhang died watching this movie! You all deserve to die a horrible death!"
"I'd rather not attend your parties! Bah!"
As they were talking, some angry guests started smashing things. Yang Hui's husband didn't dare open the door and sat helplessly on the ground, holding his head in his hands.
The servants of the Yang family were somewhat at a loss, unsure of what to do.
At this moment, Yu Xiaoluo, Qingqiu, and Captain Huang arrived with their men. They went upstairs, and Yu Xiaoluo easily opened the door.
When Xiao Yu saw her, she turned off the live stream and said ingratiatingly, "Fairy Master, I have done everything you asked me to do, and I have also made Yang Hui confess everything. Please let me go."
Yu Xiaoluo readily agreed, "Sure, I'll send you to the underworld to be a cat or dog for a few lifetimes. Eventually, you'll get to be a human, right?"
Xiao Yu looked terrified. "I'll go to hell. I don't want to go. I don't want to go."
"Oh dear, that's not up to you anymore, the ghost messengers are coming."
As they were talking, two ghost messengers put a soul-locking chain around Xiao Yu's neck and took him away. Yang Hui and her husband also looked ashen-faced and were quickly taken away by Captain Huang and his men.
At the scene, someone posted footage of the couple being taken away online, which quickly became a hot topic.
The matter was finally over, and Yu Xiaoluo felt a sense of relief. At this moment, she received a call from Fang Zixin. Her voice was cheerful, no longer that of the melancholy girl with fear and helplessness in her eyes.
"Miss Yu, Mr. Qing, my mother invited you to our house for lunch tomorrow. Would you do me the honor?"
Yu Xiaoluo glanced at Qingqiu and agreed, "Okay, after we finish eating at your house, we should go back. We've stayed here a bit too long."
“My dad is a taxi driver. I’ll have him take you to the airport whenever you’re leaving.”
"That would be great." After they made their agreement, Yu Xiaoluo and Qingqiu prepared to leave the Yang family, but they were stopped by a man wearing glasses.
"Handsome men and beautiful women, your looks and temperament are really perfect for being actors. Are you interested? Our company can turn you into big stars, or at least big names in the short drama industry."
As he spoke, he handed a business card to Yu Xiaoluo and Qingqiu respectively. Yu Xiaoluo and Qingqiu glanced at each other, but still accepted the cards out of politeness.
Before the two could even take a closer look, half of Yang Hui's friends were in the film and television industry. Seeing that someone was poaching beautiful women and handsome men, the others rushed over, vying to have Yu Xiaoluo and Qingqiu join their company.
Having finally broken through the encirclement, Yu Xiaolu patted her chest and said, "Wow, these people are really scary. It seems you're just too handsome and dazzling."
Qingqiu wrapped his arms around her waist, saying, "Even if I were light, I would only shine for you."
Hehe, these sweet words sound really nice.
Yu Xiaoluo's cheeks were a little hot, but she couldn't suppress the smile on her lips.
Back at their lodgings, it was already quite late. After washing up, they went to bed.
They seemed to have forgotten one person: Bao Shuoyu. If Xiao Hei hadn't brought him back to his lodgings, he might have been able to spend the night in that gloomy place.
Xiao Hei has finally found someone who shares his suffering.
Sigh, what can I do? This kid is just like me, someone forgotten by his master.
——————
The next day, they slept soundly until noon, the most restful sleep they had had in days.
Perhaps because everything had been settled during this trip to Kunshan, I had no psychological burden and slept particularly soundly.
Thinking about going home soon makes me feel really good. I've been away for so long and I'm really missing home. I miss my parents and brothers, my godbrothers and gods, my brothers and sisters at the Yu Family Metaphysics Academy, and all the little things about Kangba City.
Yu Xiaoluo never expected that after only half a year in Kangba City, she would feel so attached to it.
Fang's father came to pick them up. If Bao Shuoyu hadn't heard the door opening next door and rushed out, they probably would have forgotten about him again.
It's one thing for cats and dogs to have a poor sense of presence, but for a grown man like him to have such a poor sense of existence? No, no, no, it's not poor, it's that he has absolutely no sense of existence.
He finally understood that if he didn't follow in their footsteps, he would be left behind in Kuncheng. Who would he complain to? Would he cry to his mother? She would just say, "You're such a grown-up, how could you get lost? Go away, it's embarrassing to even talk about it. Don't mention it next time."
Just as Yu Xiaoluo was about to close the car door, Bao Shuoyu rushed over, still holding Xiao Hei in his arms.
"Master, I'm still here."
"Master, sob sob."
Yu Xiaolu slapped her forehead, "Sorry, sorry, I almost forgot about you guys."
