Chapter 061 Strict father, kind mother.



Hearing the sound of broken porcelain and the waiter's voice behind him, Chi Shen walked straight out of the restaurant without looking back.

In the restaurant, Xu Xiuyun threw the water glass in her hand onto the table, smashing the plate, and the exquisite dishes that had just been served splashed all over the table.

The waiter next to them wanted to say something to persuade them, but when he saw this, he immediately fell silent. After waiting for a while, when he saw Xu Xiuyun sit down, he called for someone to clean the table on the intercom.

Xu Xiuyun sat in her seat for a long time to calm herself down. After she had caught her breath, she picked up her bag and left the restaurant.

The waiter saw her leaving and immediately chased after her: "Ma'am, you haven't paid yet."

"Come back!" Someone suddenly called out to the waiter.

The waiter turned around and found that it was his boss. The boss seemed to be in a hurry, and even the buttons of his clothes were buttoned crookedly. He saw that Xu Xiuyun did not turn around, so he breathed a sigh of relief and said to the waiter: "This is someone from the Bai family, don't mess with her."

The waiter naturally didn't dare to pursue the boss' words. Although he didn't understand why he didn't pursue it, he still said, "Okay, then the bill..."

Boss: "It's my fault. Go and clean it up."

The waiter went to clean the table with full of doubts. When he turned around, he heard the boss sigh.

An older senior came over to help the waiter clean up and whispered to him, "When our restaurant opened, some problems happened and the Bai family helped solve them."

The waiter asked, "Is it the business license or the health permit that's not coming down?"

"Neither," the senior shook his head mysteriously, looked around, and whispered, "It's haunted."

The waiter was obviously frightened. He didn't even notice the scratch on his hand by the broken porcelain. He whispered, "Really?"

"Really, it was scary at the time, but the Bai family came to help solve it." said the senior.

"So the boss is not charging money because he is grateful to the Bai family?"

The senior whispered, "At that time, it was the Bai family who paid. The boss paid and the Bai family worked, so both parties were even. But later when they came to eat, the boss originally gave them a discount, but later they became more and more demanding. The boss didn't dare to say anything if he didn't pay, so he had to accept it."

The waiter didn't understand what was impressive and nodded.

At the front desk, at the employee's reminder, the boss buttoned up his clothes and checked this month's bill.

About ten years ago, he had just returned from abroad and was full of confidence to open a high-end Chinese restaurant to present the top-notch delicacies of Chinese cuisine. He even invited the chef from another place after three visits. He was fully prepared and everything was going well until the opening day, when something suddenly went wrong. Someone saw a ghost in the bathroom and the water that came out of the bathroom was actually blood. The first batch of customers were scared and even the chef resigned and ran away. The restaurant was almost about to close.

That was really a difficult time, and the boss wanted to sigh when thinking about it. Fortunately, he managed to survive. He sold the house left to him by his parents, asked the Bai family to perform a ritual, and once again begged the chef to come out and promote the business again, holding free activities, and he finally managed to survive.

As he thought about it, the boss sighed.

Chi Shen left the high-end restaurant, entered the subway station, and took the subway home.

Although he learned at noon today that Ji Xingchen's past was related to the Bai family, he still felt that he had wasted an entire afternoon. He had known about this situation a long time ago. The information provided by Xu Xiuyun and the face that looked very similar to Ji Xingchen in the fragments of the picture he saw in the female ghost's memory led him to judge that Ji Xingchen was related to the old house. The difference between the two pieces of information was not very big.

Wouldn't it be nice for him to lie at home and continue choosing the style of recliner with Ji Xingchen during this time?

Next time, no matter how the Bai family calls him, he should just stay put.

Although there is no loss, it affects my mood.

After returning to Tongfuyuan, Chi Shen first solved his lunch problem at a stall outside, and then went upstairs to see how everyone was preparing for Halloween.

Ji Xingchen did not come out today because he was the chief director of the Halloween Eve event tonight and was telling everyone about the precautions when going out.

As a ghost going out normally for the first time, Bai Wan may feel uncomfortable in various ways, so Ji Xingchen needs to give her some basic knowledge about modern society.

As for Gui Lian, perhaps because of his ability to enter dreams, although he has forgotten what his body looks like, he is inexplicably familiar with the modern world. Ji Xingchen originally wanted Gui Lian to follow Bai Wan and stick himself on Bai Wan's shoulder as a decoration to remind Bai Wan how to deal with unexpected situations, but Gui Lian refused sternly, and was in a posture that if Bai Wan insisted on doing this, he would jump off the building. Ji Xingchen had no choice but to give up.

At this time, the female ghost in red was standing nearby. She was very contemptuous of the ghost face's fear. She reached out and grabbed Bai Wan's hand, and then she made a real ghost face in a domineering manner, with her tongue dragging on the ground.

As for the cabinet ghost, Ji Xingchen also politely asked about it, and the answer he got was - "Bang!"

The cabinet door was closed tightly, and not even light could get through.

The red-dressed female ghost was still jumping around: "He! No! He doesn't dare to go out, he...is socially phobic!"

Then, Ji Xingchen went to ask other residents of the house, and the answers he got were... the woman in the kitchen pushed herself deeper into the cupboard, the boy in the bathroom almost merged with the shadow behind the toilet, and the shadow on the chandelier in the living room, and the sound that was asked by Chi Shen to come out from under the bed in the master bedroom, never appeared again.

At this point, Ji Xingchen has finished the travel statistics for tonight, including Chi Shen, Bai Wan, and Gui Lian.

The red-clothed female ghost continued to jump around: "What about me, what about me, what about me! Why don't you ask me! Come and ask me if I can get out!"

Ji Xingchen pushed his glasses down and said coldly, "You are not fit to go out."

Upon hearing this, the red-dressed female ghost was furious: "Get out, get out, get out!"

Bai Wan said: "She can follow me."

Ji Xingchen cruelly denied: "No, she will lose control."

Chi Shen had just returned from outside when he saw this messy scene in his home. The female ghost in red was circling around Ji Xingchen, repeatedly expressing her desire to go out, while Bai Wan was sitting upright on the sofa watching TV, which was playing a Halloween science video.

As soon as she saw Chi Shen coming back, the red-clothed female ghost immediately rushed over and shouted, "Get out!"

Chi Shen stopped the red-dressed ghost with one hand and lifted her up: "Do you want to go out and play too?"

Ji Xingchen continued to make cold and ruthless judgments: "If you let her go, something bad will happen. She can't control herself."

"Do you really want to go out so much?" Chi Shen looked at the female ghost in red with tears of blood falling from her eyes and shook her head.

Even though the red-clothed female ghost was being carried, she nodded heavily to express her wish: "I want to! I've never been out!"

"Okay, then you have to promise me one thing. No matter what happens, you can't move." Chi Shen said.

Ji Xingchen frowned at the side, and his expression seemed to be asking, why do you spoil her so much? Bai Wan laughed softly at this, but quickly stopped.

The red-dressed ghost nodded again: "Okay!"

Ji Xingchen didn't say anything else, he just told Chi Shen about the arrangements for tonight. They started from Tongfu Garden, walked to the Central Square, participated in the Halloween Eve carnival, and then walked back. Although it took about half an hour to walk there, it was not far from Tongfu Garden, the most prosperous place in Hong Kong City, there were activities in the streets and alleys, and there were people dressed up as ghosts to participate in Halloween activities. This way, they could walk with the crowd and watch the activities along the street.

Chi Shen thought it was a good idea. Ji Xingchen’s arrangements had always been very careful and there would be no mistakes.

Ji Xingchen had also thought of everyone's costumes. Bai Wan didn't need to change at all. Her strong yin energy could make her stand out, and she was just right to play the role of the ghost bride in a red wedding dress. In order to avoid accidents and to make the look less scary, Ji Xingchen asked Bai Wan to leave her own tablet in her hand to prevent the bloody palm on the tablet from moving around. He suggested replacing it with an unlit red candle, and Bai Wan readily agreed.

But there is one problem, that is, Bai Wan's Yin Qi is too strong. When she appears on the street, people on the street will feel cold, and if they get close to her, they will get sick. This is not something Bai Wan can control. However, this is easy for Chi Shen to solve. He gave Bai Wan the faceless mirror.

As for the ghost face, Ji Xingchen planned to arrange for him to stick it on Chi Shen's clothes so that he could change his expressions to scare people, so that people would not think it was just a logo and lose the Halloween atmosphere.

After listening to Ji Xingchen's arrangements, Chi Shen asked, "What about you?"

Ji Xingchen said: "I'm not very interested, I'll follow you out."

Chi Shen nodded. Just like not everyone likes to celebrate the Spring Festival, it is normal that some ghosts don’t like to celebrate Halloween.

After the arrangements were completed, the sun had set. Chi Shen first heated up the dinner he had brought back and finished the meal under everyone's expectant gaze. Then he picked up the red-dressed ghost and put her on his shoulder. Ji Xingchen entered his shadow, and Bai Wan followed him out with a candle in her hand!

It's Halloween Eve, and here they come!

Before leaving Tongfuyuan, Chi Shen saw groups of people wearing makeup and walking out. There were many young people living in this community. Although he didn't know them, when he saw that everyone was wearing makeup and preparing to participate in Halloween, he greeted them in a friendly manner and went out together.

Some shops along the street also lit up plastic pumpkin lanterns, convenience stores posted new pumpkin cakes, and dessert shops launched a series of Halloween desserts. There were also children carrying small baskets with bat wings on them asking for candy. Some people who didn't bring candy would go to the convenience store to buy them with a smile.

Some people didn't give out candies, and the children just made faces and walked away. After all, it wasn't a local festival, and everyone just wanted to feel the festive atmosphere without following the original customs of the festival.

Soon two children wearing wizard cloaks came to Chi Shen and looked at him and shouted in a baby voice: "Trick or treat!"

At Ji Xingchen's reminder, Chi Shen was well prepared. His pockets were filled with candies. He grabbed a handful of candies from each child and heard one child shout happily, "Thank you, brother!"

The other child was looking straight at Bai Wan next to him, with curiosity in his eyes.

Bai Wan also lowered her head slightly, and it was obvious that she was also looking at him.

Chi Shen lowered his head and said, "Little boy, my sister and I are together. I'll just give you the candy."

The child was still looking at Bai Wan. Bai Wan seemed a little uncomfortable. The red candle in her hand moved slightly, and the atmosphere became a little tense.

"It's time to go. Let's go find that sister! That sister is pretty!" Another child also pulled him back.

The child was dragged away, and then he shouted, "This sister is the prettiest! I want to wear her clothes, too!"

Chi Shen laughed. It is said that children can see things that others cannot see. He thought the child saw something, but he didn't expect that he thought Bai Wan's clothes were pretty.

Bai Wan looked relieved, and her voice was very cheerful: "You can wear it when you grow up."

The little kid waved to them: "Goodbye, sister!"

Bai Wan also hesitantly stretched out his hand, and waved slowly according to the method Ji Xingchen taught him: "Goodbye."

The two children ran away laughing, and Chi Shen and Bai Wan continued to walk forward.

The female ghost in red who was lying on Chi Shen's shoulder wanted to look up and seemed to want to say something, but Chi Shen held her down, so she could only shut up aggrievedly.

After walking for a while, a man wearing the makeup of the Grim Reaper, a long black cloak and a scythe stopped them. Bai Wan was obviously a little nervous. The man politely said, "Excuse me, can I take a photo with you? This wedding dress is so beautiful!"

Bai Wan turned to look at Chi Shen uncomfortably. Chi Shen smiled and nodded, saying, "Just stand there and don't move."

The man dressed as the Grim Reaper immediately asked his friends to take a photo with him. He looked at the photo and for some reason, the bride next to him looked a little blurry. However, this feeling was very suitable for Halloween. He was too embarrassed to ask Bai Wan to take another photo, so he didn't take another one. Then he wanted to get the contact information, but Chi Shen refused. He didn't force it, just said sorry and left with his friends with a smile.

They hadn't even reached Central Avenue yet, and there were already countless people coming to take photos with them. Compared to Chi Shen, Bai Wan's outfit was obviously more popular. The red-dressed female ghost on Chi Shen's shoulder was like a mop on his shoulder, looking extremely perfunctory. Bai Wan, wearing an exquisite wedding dress, was obviously more in line with the atmosphere of the night.

Bai Wan was a little nervous at first. It was the first time she saw so many people, and also the first time so many strangers talked to her, and all of them spoke in a polite and friendly tone. She looked at Chi Shen very uncomfortably, and Chi Shen gave her an encouraging look. Later, after many times, she gradually got used to it. After all, she only needed to stand still, and she had a red veil on her head, so she didn't even need to smile. She quickly integrated into the festival. Chi Shen even felt the joy she expressed when she was praised.

After a while, Bai Wan was surrounded by people taking pictures. Chi Shen stood in the shadow outside, looking at Bai Wan, ready to wait for her to finish being photographed before continuing to walk. At this time, two more girls finished taking pictures of Bai Wan and noticed Chi Shen. Their eyes lit up and they asked him if they could take a photo with him.

Chi Shen agreed. After taking the photo, the girl looked at the mop on Chi Shen's shoulder and asked curiously, "What is this?"

Chi Shen lifted up the female ghost in red to show them: "I actually wanted to play a person possessed by a fierce ghost, but it seems I failed."

Before, the face of the red-clothed female ghost was blocked by her hair and could not be seen. Now, when Chi Shen raised his head, the girls were startled by his horrifying face. It seemed that if they looked at that face for one more second, they would have nightmares at night. They all took a step back, thanked Chi Shen, and left quickly.

Chi Shen said to himself: "Am I so unpopular?"

Ji Xingchen reminded him from the shadows: "You scared them."

"They were the first to ask what this was..."

Chi Shen and Ji Xingchen were talking, but their eyes swept lightly through the crowd. A man with zombie makeup followed the two girls and walked over. The zombie exuded a faint stench and sinister aura.

Bai Wan also turned her head and faced that person.

Ji Xingchen: "You continue to play, I'll go."

Chi Shen: "It's Halloween, let's go together."

The two girls walked away for a while and found a secluded place to touch up their makeup. They were still discussing the people they had just met. At this time, a person wearing zombie makeup walked into where they were. One girl immediately became excited: "This person's makeup is so realistic. Friend, can I take a photo with you?"

The zombie turned his head stiffly and looked over.

The girl exclaimed: "My friend, you are so dedicated, this head-turning action is very essential!"

The zombie turned stiffly and walked towards them. His movements were also extremely stiff. The girl was still talking: "How did you draw the wounds on your body? Is it special effects makeup? Aren't you cold wearing so little?"

A faint stench came over, and her friend finally realized something was wrong and pulled her back: "Let's go quickly, this place is too remote and unsafe."

"Let me take a photo with this zombie friend first..."

When she turned her head, the zombie was almost sticking to her face. This time she could finally confirm that the stench was coming from the person playing the zombie. When she got closer, she found that the smell was extremely foul.

A scream pierced the sky, but in such a lively night, no one noticed.

The girl watched in horror as the zombie got closer and closer to her. Her other friend took a bag and slapped the zombie's body frantically, but it did not cause any harm to the zombie. The girl who was caught felt her whole body go cold. Will she die this night...

"It's so cold." Her friend shivered and said, "Why is it so cold?"

"Let her go." They heard a girl's sweet voice, which floated over ethereally. The ghost bride who had taken photos with them before was standing beside them. The red candle in her hand was lit, and a faint blue flame ignited.

The zombie suddenly stopped moving, as if he had encountered something terrible. He threw the girl to the ground and ran away.

Chi Shen was waiting outside and making a phone call: "Yes, it's in the alley next to No. 45 on Central Street. You can come and clean up after it."

Over there, Xu Jiayuan was howling like a ghost: "Why is there something wrong again?"

Chi Shen hung up the phone quickly and waved to Bai Wan: "Let's go."

Just as Bai Wan turned around and was about to leave, she was grabbed by two girls. One of the girls cried and shouted thank you to her.

The other girl grabbed her hand, and it seemed like it took her a while to feel the coldness coming from her hand: "Sister, are you cold? I'll buy you some milk tea!"

Bai Wan looked a little overwhelmed. She quickly extinguished the candle in her hand and waved her hands to indicate that it was nothing to worry about.

Chi Shen looked in the direction where the ghost disguised as a zombie left, and always felt that direction was a little strange.

Xun Min didn't even open his eyes, and threw away his thigh bone that was shaking so much that it was fighting with his shin bone, "No, you're hallucinating."

Yu Tu: “…”

Amid Xun Min's terrified and collapsed screams, Yu Tu walked over and pulled off the ghost's head, revealing the mechanical body inside.

Xun Min: “……?”

Yu Tu looked at Xun Min with a look of disappointment, "How many times have I told you that there are no ghosts in this world!"

Xun Min quietly called back the bones of his frightened feet and replied obediently, "Yes, yes, yes."
