I supported her, feeling her trembling shake my heart too. Sometimes, even as an observer, things aren’t easy.
“Huaer was wrong, Huaer was wrong,” Huahua cried frantically, grabbing my hand, “Sister, let me go back three years, please, let me go back. Huaer will go back now and never cause trouble again.”
I remained silent: “There are still five days. Only after five days can you go back.”
“Huaer wants to go now…”
She rolled her eyes and fainted. I looked up in surprise, seeing the fat man laugh: “Sleeping now is the best.”
This time, I didn’t scold him. Given Huahua’s current state, falling asleep was indeed good.
I watched him for a while: “Are you the ghost Huahua released in the pear garden back then?”
Qingquan’s eyes were again covered with a layer of frost, completely different from before.
He was that ghost. It wasn’t hard to guess. Huahua had never been to the human world and couldn’t have known him. Being imprisoned in the pear garden and treating Huahua so kindly, he must be the ghost who owed her.
Qingquan nodded: “Yes.”
I shook my head: “Huahua is now weak, also because of you. Having her spiritual energy extracted for seventy years, bringing her to the ghost realm to heal is your compensation? You might as well send her back to the pear garden.”
My heart skipped a beat. Huahua’s spiritual energy… had nothing to do with him?
I twitched my face and decided to pretend I didn’t know him. After walking a few steps, I suddenly thought, wait, I originally didn’t know him at all, where did he come from! I turned my head and asked, “Hey, fatty, what are you doing in the ghost realm?”
The fatty opened his small eyes and said, “Playing.”
“What’s fun about the ghost realm? Hurry up and leave, be careful or you’ll lose your life if you stay too long.”
“Then why aren’t you leaving?”
I narrowed my eyes and said, “Because I am a god.”
The fatty also narrowed his eyes: “Actually, I am a ghost.”
I patted his shoulder: “If you were a bit lighter, you’d be more like a ghost. Ghosts aren’t this heavy.”
