Black Wuchang winced, covering his painfully struck cheek with one hand while waving the other in explanation, "No, no, don't shout! That's not what I meant!"
"What do you mean then? Are you going to let go? If you don't let go, I won't hold back!"
"Lady Meng Po, please stop hitting me! I-I-I’m not borrowing money, and I'm not being inappropriate."
"What else could it be? Inappropriate, inappropriate!"
"…"
This idiot has messed up the entire plan. Xiang Xueer hid behind a tree, sweating anxiously. She sighed heavily; if this continued, it would truly become inappropriate. If this matter was ruined, Lian Cheng Xue would really not come out.
Xiang Xueer gritted her teeth, holding a small box in her hand. She rushed out from behind the tree, ready to save Black Wuchang from his predicament. Unexpectedly, before she could reach him, she saw Lady Meng Po furious as she grabbed Black Wuchang and kicked him off the bridge.
"Wow!" Black Wuchang screamed as he fell with a loud splash into the water. After struggling for a moment, he began to bubble up from below.
"Oh no!" Xiang Xueer stretched her neck to look at the surface of the water and screamed in panic, "Help! Help! Someone has fallen into the river!"
Lady Meng Po pulled Xiang Xueer back and scolded her impatiently, "Stop shouting! Let that scoundrel drown; he dared to take advantage of me!"
It was bad enough that Black Wuchang was foolish; he had encountered an even more foolish woman. What should she do now? Forget it; saving him came first.
Flower Ridge handed the brocade box to Lady Meng Po, pinched her nose against the stench of the river water, and jumped into the water with great effort. After much struggle, she finally dragged Black Wuchang out from the river.
"You're so stupid! Now I smell terrible!" Xiang Xueer scolded as she sat down on the bank, panting. Turning to see this idiot still bubbling like a crab, she irritably slapped him twice across the face to wake him up.
Xiang Xueer touched her wet face and began to lecture him angrily, "You can’t even keep your head above water while chasing girls! You made me jump in to save you; what a useless character you are."
"Woo woo woo!" Black Wuchang sobbed sadly. At this moment, his feelings could only be expressed through one song: too wronged.
Still crying? Xiang Xueer shot him a fierce glare and stood up to look at Lady Meng Po approaching. She said, "Lady Meng Po, don’t misunderstand! This idiot wants to pursue you; he’s not trying to borrow money. The ring in this brocade box is specially prepared for you!"
Looking at Kanshu Xianxiakanshu, she patted the water stains on her body and said to Black Wuchang, "This is your last chance, so make the most of it. I need to change my clothes because I smell terrible!"
Upon hearing this, Meng Po suddenly realized that with all the petals and champagne, this was what it was about.
She slowly opened the brocade box in her hands, revealing a red flower ring made of Higanbana, which made her ears flush. For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Xiang Xueer took a few steps back and quickly hid behind the large tree, watching the two of them fumble around without knowing what to say. She couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh, "Looks like falling into the water wasn't in vain; there's definitely something going on!"
"Now there's hope for rescuing Lian Cheng Xue!” Xiang Xueer rubbed her sore nose vigorously and let out a super loud sneeze.
Oh no! I really need to change clothes quickly; otherwise, if I catch a cold before seeing Lian Cheng Xue'er, that would be such a loss.
Black Wuchang finally succeeded in his romantic endeavors. Xiang Xueer casually grabbed a piece of clothing from Ghost Messenger and changed into it. She hid an AK47 inside the outfit, creating a bulging beer belly. Honestly, if she blended in with the crowd and put on some makeup, no one would recognize her.
Just then, Black Wuchang returned happily, and Xiang Xueer quickly approached him: "Hey, Old Black, I've taken care of your business; now it's time for you to fulfill your promise!"
"Huh? Who are you?" Black Wuchang, still basking in his romantic success, turned to stare at Xiang Xueer for a while before realizing: "Oh, how come you look like this? I almost didn't recognize you."
Indeed, not being recognized was for the best. Xiang Xueer felt a surge of happiness. After finding Lian Cheng Xue, she would disguise herself as Ghost Messenger and carry out her plan effortlessly.
Feeling secretly excited, Xiang Xueer patted Black Wuchang on the shoulder: "Hurry up and take me to see my friend."
Black Wuchang rubbed his nose with an expression that suggested he wanted to back out: "What are you talking about? I don't understand."
What? He doesn't understand? Seeing his expression, Xiang Xueer immediately grasped his intention. Fine, I'll show you how it's done. With one hand on her hip and the other covering her mouth, she shouted, "Oh no! Black Wuchang has fallen in love with Meng Po! He even fell into the river while trying to woo her!"
"Oh dear! Please stop shouting!" Black Wuchang hurriedly covered her mouth and begged for mercy: "Alright, alright! I admit defeat! Just tell me your friend's name, and I'll check right away!"
"Lian Cheng Xue, an exceptionally good person!" Xiang Xueer smiled at Black Wuchang, hmpf! You think you can compete with me? Be careful or I'll make sure your demise has some rhythm to it.
"Really? It's been a few days since you died? If you didn't do anything bad in your life, you should be starting to line up for reincarnation." Black Wuchang said as he stood there, while Xiang Xueer walked towards the Reincarnation Gate.
"Two days," Xiang Xueer replied. Sure enough, from a distance, she saw Lian Cheng Xue standing in line. He had disheveled hair and was wearing a white long robe, looking up at the souls entering the Reincarnation Gate. First, they drank the Meng Po Soup handed to them by the Ghost Messenger, then forgot their past lives and walked through the turning door to be reincarnated.
She couldn't help but feel melancholic. She murmured, "After drinking this Meng Po Soup, I will forget everything. I really wish I didn't have to drink it so I wouldn't forget Shirley and my friends."
Seeing this, Xiang Xueer hurried over and, taking advantage of the crowd, grabbed his hand: "Shh, it's me. Don't make a scene; I'm here to get you out!"
Lian Cheng Xue turned around in surprise and whispered, "Shirley, how did you get here? Did you die too?"
Xiang Xueer shook her head and scanned the surroundings: "I’m not dead. I specifically came to the Underworld to rescue you. No matter what happens later, remember to cooperate with me, okay?"
Lian Cheng Xue nodded in confusion. Suddenly, Xiang Xueer sat down on the ground and started crying uncontrollably while holding Lian Cheng Xue's hand: "My husband, you died so tragically! How can I live as a widow left behind?"
"Huh?" What was going on? With her making such a scene, everyone looked at her in confusion. Soon, a crowd of souls gathered around them. Thankfully, I watch a lot of dramas; it's time for me to step in during this critical moment.
She cried heart-wrenchingly, causing a stir among the surrounding souls. A few Ghost Messengers heard her cries and rushed over without even putting down their soup bowls: "What's going on? Who's causing trouble here?"
Black Wuchang didn't expect her to create such a commotion and quickly came over to pull her away: "Stop making a scene! You only said you wanted to take a look; this commotion is too big. I won't be able to handle it."
Upon hearing this, Xiang Xueer quickly made faces at Lian Cheng Xue. Seeing her expression, he immediately rushed over as well. The two of them held onto each other tightly, while more and more onlookers gathered around.
