After all, we see each other all the time.
Luo Zinan also paid the price.
That's fine.
Yanluo believes that the saying "Leave a way out for others, so that you can meet again in the future" is very true.
The scene shifts to Chen Haonan, who has become an eighth-level corpse demon and joined Madam Nangong's forces.
Before departing for the capital, Chan Ho-nam asked his master, the Left Protector, for leave.
He wanted to see his father and sister.
After leaving home at the age of fourteen, Chan Ho-nam never went back and almost never inquired about the news. He still wanted to see with his own eyes whether his father and sister were doing well.
A dilapidated old residential area in Guangzhou.
Chen Haonan, dressed in smart clothes, walked on the dirty road.
The area is covered by rows of buildings, making it somewhat dark and difficult to walk even on a bright sunny day. Yet, it took Chen Haonan fourteen years to finally leave this place.
My father and sister, however, have spent most of their lives here.
My younger sister is two years younger than me, 33 years old this year. She takes care of our father, who is over seventy years old, all by herself, and is still unmarried.
Chan Ho-nam was filled with remorse.
Why didn't I think more about my family?
Chan Ho-nam took out a key that hadn't been used in a long time and was somewhat rusty.
The door lock hasn't been changed in all these years!
Chan Ho-nam successfully unlocked the key to the house.
This home is very small, only a dozen square meters, but it holds the childhood memories of myself and my sister.
In the living room, there was a dilapidated hospital bed, on which lay a thin, bony old man with many age spots. Despite the slightly chilly autumn weather, he was still wearing an old man's undershirt and a pair of shorts.
Fortunately, I was covered with a blanket.
The old man had thinning hair and his eyes were slightly closed, as if he were asleep.
Chan Ho-nam walked to his father's bedside.
He gazed at his father's face, lost in thought.
Time is a merciless knife. When I left home, my father was in his prime, doing hard labor. He had such a great physique, but now he looks like this.
The old man seemed to sense something and opened his eyes groggily.
"Anan, you're back."
Are you hungry?
Chan Ho-nam held his father's hand.
After becoming a ghoul, he seemed to retain his original appearance, just like the adults and colleagues in the main hall that day.
They don't look as ugly as ordinary ghouls.
"Father."
The old man looked at his son with a smile.
“I dreamt about your mom last night. She said she misses me. I think it’s time for me to make it.”
Tears streamed down Chan Ho-nam's face.
"Don't talk nonsense, you are destined to live to be a hundred years old."
The old man just smiled and didn't reply.
“Your sister is so pitiful. She took care of me for so many years. After I die, she should be able to have some peace of mind.”
"Poor child, he has no life of his own."
"Anan, when you pursue your own life, have you thought about your family?"
Chen Haonan wept with guilt, remaining silent.
"Dad doesn't blame you, he just asks you to take better care of your sister. She has suffered for so many years."
Chan Ho-nam nodded and took out a photo of himself, his wife, and his son from his pocket.
"Dad, this is your daughter-in-law and grandson."
The old man took the photo and examined it carefully.
"Okay, okay..."
"Now that you're a father, you need to be more responsible, you know?"
Chan Ho-nam nodded, crying.
The old man passed away peacefully with a smile on his face.
Chan Ho-nam threw himself on his father's body and wept bitterly.
"dad--"
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong..."
Chan Ho-nam wiped away his tears, put down the photo, and placed a card on it.
This is the savings I've accumulated over the years, enough for my sister to live out the next few decades.
"Consider it compensation from your brother."
Please forgive me.
Forgive my selfishness.
"If there is a next life, if you are still willing."
"Let's be siblings again."
Chen Yue, a nurse at the hospital, suddenly felt a pang of heart palpitation and some difficulty breathing.
However, she didn't care much, because it was caused by staying up all night for several consecutive nights.
I can finally get some rest after get off work today.
Thinking of her father's health condition, she sighed silently and continued working in and out of the ward.
It's all that bastard brother's fault. If he hadn't been so inconsiderate, I wouldn't be so tired.
When Chen Yue got home that evening, she took off her shoes.
He spoke to his father as if he were talking to himself.
"Dad, how are you feeling today? Did Aunt Wu come to see you?"
"I asked her to come and check on you."
"dad?"
Chen Yue thought her father was just asleep, so she slowly walked to the bedside. Her father was peacefully closing his eyes.
But there was no rise and fall of the chest.
Chen Yue's breathing quickened, and she reached out incredulously to touch her father's nose.
No, he's not breathing anymore.
Tears welled up in Chen Yue's eyes.
"dad--"
Chen Yue didn't know what to do.
Tears streamed down my face, and in a daze, I saw the photos and bank card next to my pillow.
"elder brother……"
Chan Ho-nam looked at his own home from the window of the building across the street.
My younger sister hasn't changed much, she's become more mature, and her face looks a little haggard.
"Take care, little sister."
In the dimly lit, abandoned building, only a murmur remained.
Chen Haonan returned to the side of the Left Protector.
The Left Protector wore a pure black mask, and his body was covered by a wide robe, making it impossible to tell whether he was male or female. His voice was also indistinct and could not be identified.
"Is everything done?"
Chan Ho-nam knelt on one knee and bowed his head.
"Yes, Master."
"Go and inform the Right Protector and Dragon Tiger that we should set off."
"yes."
...
Tuesday, October 13.
After saying goodbye to Chi Miaomiao and Tu Yier, Bai Ningbing looked at the empty house and sighed.
I rolled up my sleeves, picked up the vacuum cleaner, and started cleaning.
After watching how Yanluo used it, Bai Ningbing felt bored and wanted to do something, so she decided to clean the house.
Until noon.
Bai Ningbing had just finished cleaning the entire house.
Then they threw all the bed sheets and duvet covers from the second floor into the washing machines on both the first and second floors to wash them.
Even with two washing machines, it still wasn't enough to finish washing everything; we have to wait until this batch is done.
Bai Ningbing then threw all the pillows onto the second-floor balcony to be exposed to the sun.
Today is a sunny day, perfect for washing sheets and airing out pillows.
Speaking of these things, Bai Ningbing then took several quilt inserts to the front yard and placed them on a stainless steel rack to air them out in the sun.
The weather will get colder, which will come in handy.
Bai Ningbing wore a high ponytail, black wide-leg pants, and a white shirt.
The shirt accentuated her figure beautifully.
After doing all that, Bai Ningbing didn't break a sweat.
A ninth-tier expert, terrifying indeed.
Bai Ningbing made herself lunch and sat at the dining table to eat alone.
It's been almost two months since I came to the human world with Yanluo on August 30th.
Through Teacher Tu Yier's written instruction and the influence of the internet, Bai Ningbing acquired a great deal of common knowledge about this world.
This world is infinitely more interesting than the demon realm.
The demon realm is nothing but constant fighting; it's tedious and boring.
After becoming the patriarch of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, Bai Ningbing continued to subdue the surrounding clans, eventually becoming a Demon Emperor.
The demon realm was divided into ten regions.
This also corresponds to the Ten Great Demon Emperors.
The Black Serpent King was also a demon king.
Unfortunately, they were heavily rewarded by the first squad.
Bai Ningbing felt that everything was magical; the current human world was completely different from the human world recorded in ancient books.
She's been studying human history lately, and maybe she'll uncover some of its secrets.
