Living Funeral
Yue seemed to be quite afraid of Gao Qing. As Gao Qing approached her, she shrank back into her mother’s embrace.
“Don’t be afraid, Mommy is here,” Yue's Mother reassured her. Tears welled up in her eyes as she quickly added, “What sins did I commit in my past life to make my daughter suffer so much in this one?” With that, she held her daughter even tighter.
Uncle Cao sighed as well.
Every parent loves their children, and that is beyond doubt.
Uncle Cao continued, “We really need your help!” He looked as if he was about to kneel down, but Gao Ling was quick to support him.
“We will do our best,” Gao Ling promised.
Gao Qing sat down beside Yue and said, “Let her decide.” Gao Qing was a rational person, someone who could distinguish right from wrong.
After those words were spoken, my gaze fell upon them. This situation had to be resolved; otherwise, Yue would surely be dragged down.
Yue's Mother still didn’t understand what was happening and asked, “What?”
“Let Yue choose for herself,” Gao Qing replied.
At that moment, the room fell silent, and all eyes turned to Yue and Gao Qing.
Slowly, Yue began to pull away from her mother’s embrace.
At that moment, Yuli Flower looked pitiful in the rain. However, Gao Qing clearly had no sympathy. Gao Qing asked, "Who is he?"
Yue was pressed by Gao Qing's questioning. She looked at Gao Qing and paused for a moment before weakly asking, "Will you kill him?"
We all understood what she meant, but Yue's parents were still confused.
Gao Qing replied, "I will kill him."
As soon as those words fell, Yue's face turned pale. Gao Ling and I exchanged glances; Gao Qing really showed no mercy!
But who could blame her? If it weren't for Yue's intervention, Ghost Boy Jian wouldn't have made it out alive.
Yue said with a hint of grievance, "Then I won't."
Gao Qing responded, "Then I will make sure he suffers even more and seal him directly."
Yue was on the verge of tears because of Gao Qing. Uncle Cao and his wife were still in the dark.
Reluctantly, Yue had to compromise and said, "At the very least, I will cut ties with him. Can you not hurt him?"
After Yue spoke, Uncle Cao finally couldn't hold back and interjected, "Yue, what are you talking about? Is that 'him' the Evil Spirit that has been tormenting you?"
Once Uncle Cao finished speaking, Yue's mother seemed to understand as well. After a moment, she suddenly asked, "Is he Chen Jian?"
"I thought I already made you cut ties with him?"
"But Yue's Mother quickly replied, 'Chen Jian has been dead for a month now.'
Upon hearing this, Uncle Cao was stunned. A month? It was clear from his tone that he had no idea.
From their conversation, I gathered some clues. Chen Jian and Yue must have been in a romantic relationship while he was alive, but Uncle Cao disapproved, which is why they never ended up together.
Uncle Cao suddenly exclaimed in anger, 'He was obsessed with Yue when he was alive, and now that he's dead, he still won't leave her alone. What an unrelenting spirit!'
Yue quickly interjected, 'Dad, that's not true. Chen Jian was a good person.'
'Yue's Mother added, 'Afu, Chen Jian was actually quite a decent kid.'
Uncle Cao, now furious, retorted, 'Decent? He’s dead and still clinging to our daughter! This clearly shows he wants to harm her. Are you losing your mind? If he were truly decent, he wouldn’t be haunting our daughter like this.'
Yue's Mother fell silent under Uncle Cao's shouting.
In truth, Uncle Cao had a point. If Chen Jian genuinely cared for Yue, he should have let her go; true love means letting go!
However, it seemed that everything was too late now.
Gao Qing didn't have time to deal with this family drama. He continued to ask, 'How far have you two gotten?'
Yue replied, 'He has been pursuing me for half a month now, and we have been together for about two weeks.'
'Gao Qing remarked, 'You've been together for two weeks and you're still alive? You really are tough!'”
Yue felt at a loss for words.
Gao Qing urged Yue to extend her hand, while Uncle Cao hesitated to interrupt Gao Qing's words. However, he couldn't help but prompt Yue, "Hurry up and show your hand to the master!"
Yue's mother stepped in to help her extend her hand.
Uncle Cao sighed at the situation.
At that moment, I sensed a heavy atmosphere in the room. I sighed and glanced out the window, but that brief look revealed something I shouldn't have seen.
I spotted Ghost Boy, Chen Jian, whose face was pale to a terrifying degree as he stood outside the window, peering into the room.
I looked again but didn't step outside.
However, I quickly pulled my gaze away; Gao Qing was sharp-witted, and if I stared too long, she would definitely become suspicious.
Reluctantly, Yue extended her hand.
Gao Qing grabbed Yue's wrist and pulled it closer. She examined the wrist and noticed a red string tied around it.
Gao Qing untied the red string and said, "Chen Fei, burn this red string."
Gao Qing was treating me and Gao Ling like assistants. I walked over, took the red string, and told Auntie to fetch a fire basin.
Auntie quickly responded.
After I burned the red string, I looked out the window, and Chen Jian was already gone.
Gao Qing quickly tucked her long hair behind her ear, glanced at my pale face, then reached out to press her fingers against my brow and asked, "Does it hurt?"
Gao Qing only pressed lightly, but it hurt so much.
Finally, Gao Qing said that Yang Qi had drained too much, and now Yin Qi was overwhelming me. If this continued, I would eventually lose my life.
Upon hearing the words "lose my life," Yue's Mother pleaded, "Please, you must save my daughter."
Gao Qing replied, "I will do my best."
After Gao Qing spoke, she suddenly stood up and walked toward me. When she reached me, she said, "Let’s draw some blood."
I: …
Though I was reluctant in my heart, I still did as Gao Qing instructed. She remarked directly, "Your blood is quite strange; it balances Yin and Yang."
I let a little blood flow into a bowl. Gao Qing took the bowl from me and sniffed it. I thought she was going to taste it again.
My complexion turned somewhat unpleasant. Gao Ling said, "Brother Fei, for the sake of money, let’s just endure this."
Gao Qing sniffed again and handed the bowl to Auntie, instructing her to brew it with hot water—just half a bowl would suffice.
Auntie quickly complied.
Gao Qing was capable, but her temper was truly terrible.
Gao Ling called out to me, "Brother Fei, let's go outside for a smoke."
I replied with a simple "Okay."
With that, we headed outside.
The upscale villa area was quite elegant. As soon as I stepped out, I instinctively began searching for Jian's figure.
However, after looking around for a while, I still couldn't find Jian.
Gao Ling said to me, "My sister is indeed more capable than I am, but her temper is absolutely awful."
I replied, "Aren't capable people usually like that?"
Gao Ling let out a bitter laugh and said, "You're right."
But just as I finished speaking, there was suddenly a commotion coming from inside. Gao Ling and I hurried back in, only to find Yu coughing up blood.
Uncle Cao rushed over and asked, "What happened? Yu, how are you feeling?"
I stepped forward to ask, "What’s going on? Is this a reaction from drinking my blood?"
At that moment, Gao Qing's expression was fluctuating between dark and light.
Gao Qing stared at Yu and asked Gao Ling with concern, "Did you do something just now?" Gao Ling was also worried about the possibility of something happening to the person involved, which would implicate Gao Qing.
There had been instances where clients turned hostile, so Gao Ling took such matters very seriously.
However, Gao Qing confidently replied, "Don't worry, it should be fine."
I felt a bit anxious as well. Yu kept coughing up blood, and gradually beads of sweat began to appear on the tip of his nose. What shocked me even more was that a dark mark suddenly appeared on Yu's forehead.
Upon seeing the dark mark, Gao Qing's expression changed dramatically as he said, "I knew I wasn't wrong."
"What do you mean you weren't wrong?" Gao Ling asked nervously.
Ignoring Gao Ling, Gao Qing posed a question that made our scalps tingle. He asked Yu, "Are you already pregnant with the Yin Fetus?"
