The female ghost looked at the owner of the voice and saw a young man eighteen or nineteen years old, holding an oil-paper umbrella and looking at her with a smile.

“If you eat such a sc.u.m person, aren"t you afraid of getting diarrhea?”

The female ghost"s expression sank. She really was a little afraid, but what could she do? She just wanted to eat him to vent her hatred.

“Don"t eat him, get up, I"ll send you off to the afterworld,” Tang Yuan said impatiently. Ever since he started living with Xie Yu, his daily routine had become very regular, so since he wasn"t in bed right now, he was a little sleepy.

The female ghost didn"t move, looking like she was resolved to stick to this until the end.

Tang Yuan didn"t waste any more time on nonsense. Approaching directly would result in a fight, but he had increased his spiritual strength and had fighting experience, so he could handle this level of female ghost. If it didn"t take too long, he would have the upper hand.

It was just that this female ghost was very persistent. Even if she couldn"t beat Tang Yuan, she would still persist. So Tang Yuan had no choice, he could only take out a fire talisman to seal her movements, then open the oil-paper umbrella and recite the spell for collecting ghosts.

The female ghost struggled wildly, continuing to resist as she fought the movement of her spirit. Seeing this, Tang Yuan said with a sigh, “I will send this man to jail. He"s lost a leg. Even if he doesn"t die, he can"t go anywhere. You can"t give up your future for such sc.u.m.”

He didn"t know if what he said was really reasonable enough or if his words were just enough of a distraction, but the female ghost was directly sucked into his umbrella.

Tang Yuan turned his eyes to the one lying in a pool of blood, Wu Chi. He coldly made the emergency call and then woke Wu Chi up.

Wu Chi"s first reaction upon seeing Tang Yuan was to ask for help, but Tang Yuan just looked at him indifferently, not speaking.

Zhao Zheng, who had been hiding not too far away, walked up and spat out a “yuck”. Then he swore, “Sc.u.m.” Actually, he didn"t know why Tang Yuan had said that he was sc.u.m, but most of what Tang Yuan said was correct, so he firmly believed that this person was sc.u.m.

“I"m not, I"m not sc.u.m, help me, save me.” Wu Chi crawled towards Tang Yuan, wanting to grasp Tang Yuan"s leg, but Tang Yuan stepped back and said, “Let me tell you a story.”

Wu Chi madly shook his head. “N-no, save me first.”

“Rest a.s.sured, I"ve already called an ambulance. The female ghost was already captured by me too,” Tang Yuan said with a smile.

This made Wu Chi feel at ease, so he no longer called for help, his entire body lying limp in place.

“There"s a man at our school. He"s been in love with a girl since high school. However, in the process of falling in love, he took advantage of the girl"s love for him and asked the girl for things excessively. The girl couldn"t satisfy his desires in the end, so he asked her to break up.

“And this shameless man actually asked the girl for a break-up consolation fee. The girl naturally disagreed, so a grudge filled his heart and, while simultaneously coaxing the girl, he prepared to murder the girl deep down. "

When he said this, Wu Chi"s face went white, but soon his gaze darkened so no one could tell what he was thinking.

Tang Yuan continued to speak, “The girl"s love for him had become a habit and she had great trust in him. So he chose the girl"s birthday and asked the girl to meet up, saying that he would give her a surprise birthday present.

“As a result, when the girl was standing by the street and calling him on the phone, he lured the girl to walk into the middle of the road, then he drove his car and hit the girl hard. Taking advantage of the girl"s dying moments, he got out of his car and said something to the girl."

He approached Wu Chi, kneeling down and whispering, “This birthday present, do you like it?”

When he said this sentence, he smiled, but Wu Chi went cold all over. He looked at Tang Yuan"s face and it was as if he were looking at himself, because that"s exactly how he had said it to w.a.n.g Huan.

Zhao Zheng suddenly came to a realization, “Oh, so it turns out that he was the one who killed his girlfriend by running her over?”

Preivously, they couldn"t figure it out for a long time. If he killed his girlfriend, how did he kill her?

It was impossible to pay for a hit, because he had no money, and he couldn"t have pushed his girlfriend into the path of a car. After all, he had an alibi.

But now that he was thinking about it, he must have gone to get a car to kill her himself, and then drove to a preselected place and established his alibi there.

He didn"t have a car, so no one would immediately think that he had hit his girlfriend, plus the school was scared of a scandal, so they intervened greatly in this case. And he probably didn"t actually borrow the money for the girlfriend"s family, but actually to clean up the issue of the damage to the car.

“Sc.u.m,” Zhao Zheng swore again.

The ambulance arrived and Wu Chi was saved. Tang Yuan and Zhao Zheng also reported the crime and they all told the police everything they knew in detail. If Tang Yuan"s a.n.a.lysis was correct and the police used their authority, Wu Chi would be punished.

—

Wu Chi was now seriously injured, so even knowing that the police would investigate him, he couldn"t do anything. As time went by, he slowly gave up all hope.

After the police collected the evidence, Wu Chi was arrested and brought to justice. After his trial, Wu Chi was directly sentenced to death, but while he was waiting for his execution, who knew what had him all stimulated, shivering in the corner of his cell every day. On the day of the execution, Wu Chi laughed in relief.

“Are you satisfied with this result?” Tang Yuan said to the female ghost beside him.

The female ghost had originally been lying on the ground, her body twisted and still bleeding, looking horrible and disgusting, but, in the next moment, a flash of light covered the female ghost. When the light disappeared, the female ghost had become a beautiful girl. She got up from the ground and looked at Tang Yuan, nodding, “I"m satisfied. Although I personally didn"t get to kill Wu Chi, he was duly punished.”

The female ghost had been blinded by her resentment, so she couldn"t even speak before, but now that the resentment had disappeared, she finally became an ordinary ghost.

Although she would have liked to kill Wu Chi personally, her future didn"t deserve to be thrown away on him, so Tang Yuan"s method was actually better and she was very grateful to Tang Yuan.

“Thank you,” she said sincerely.

Tang Yuan felt a little embarra.s.sed and paused before saying, “You"re welcome. This is what I"m supposed to do.”

The female ghost smiled and took out a black stone, handing it to Tang Yuan. “This is the fossil of my resentment. Just take it as a thank you for helping me get revenge. I hope you won"t be discouraged by this. After all, I"m just a poor ghost."

“Mmm.” Tang Yuan didn"t hold back his smile and casually took the stone, “Thank you.”

The female ghost watched him take the stone and let out a gentle sigh of relief. Tang Yuan had done her a great favor this time. She had to thank him, but she was off to the afterworld now and didn"t know if she could repay Tang Yuan in the future, so she could only do this for now.

“Are you going to the afterworld?” Tang Yuan asked.

The female ghost nodded. “I want to see my parents before I go.” The last thing she had to let go of was her parents. She had been an unfilial daughter, leaving before their hair turned from black to white. It was all because she was so stupid, but now this was her stage exit.

“Yes,” Tang Yuan gently sighed, a bit of loneliness in his gaze, “Goodbye.”

“Goodbye.”

The female ghost left, but Tang Yuan felt a little discomfort in his heart. He also wanted to see his parents. Unfortunately, they had died early and even their souls had disappeared.

He looked at the black stone and his mood slowly improved. He took out the oil-paper umbrella and called Miao.

“What"s wrong?” Miao asked as soon as she came out.

Tang Yuan threw the stone to her, “This is for you.”

Miao caught the stone and looked at it. Then she immediately laughed. “Oh, oh, are you really giving it to me?”

This fossil of resentment was very useful for ghosts, because when a ghost absorbed it, their power would increase.

“Mhm,” Tang Yuan nodded.

Miao showed an excited expression, “I love you to death, Tang Yuan, thank you!”

“No thanks needed. As my minion, you can"t be too weak, otherwise there"s no use for you at all.”

A Miao: “……”

After bullying Miao, Tang Yuan felt a lot better. Just at this moment, a knock sounded at his door.

“Young Master, I have brought you the formal attire,” TaoZi"s voice came calmly.

“Wait a minute,” Tang Yuan replied. He turned his head and said to Miao, “You absorb this stone first and I"ll see the effect later.”

“Mmm,” Miao replied as cold as ice. He was dead to her now, Tang Yuan, this dead child, I"ll never hold affection for you again, hmph!

As Tang Yuan watched her reply and turn away, he didn"t care any further about what she was thinking. After all, even if she had some thoughts, a beating would put her back on the straight and narrow.

He opened the door and let TaoZi walk in with the clothes. This formal attire was to be worn at the wedding. He had heard that Xie Yu specially found someone to make it. When he saw this outfit, Tang Yuan suddenly realized, I"m really getting married.

He and Xie Yu were getting married because of the agreement, but Xie Yu had placed a lot of value on this marriage, not only forming a bond with him, but also holding a wedding. He could never understand what was going through Xie Yu"s mind.

However, as the beneficiary of this marriage, he wouldn"t make any comment on Xie Yu"s approach to the wedding. He would try to cooperate with everything Xie Yu wanted to do.

He took the attire and tried it on and then he froze in front of the mirror. Miao shot a strange look at him and was about to ask him what was wrong, when she saw him say with a serious expression, “How can there be such a handsome man in this world!”

Miao: “……”

At dinner that evening, Tang Yuan asked quietly, “Why is the attire Western-style?” He had seen that Xie Yu seemed to like to wear tangzhuang so he had thought that the attire would be like that.

“Did you not say that you like Western-style clothes previously?” Xie Yu asked curiously, could it be that I thought wrongly?

“Hmm?” Tang Yuan"s expression went awkward. He had forgotten that he had said such a thing, “So that"s what it was! Thank you.” He hadn"t expected that Xie Yu would accommodate his preferences.

“There"s no need for thanks,” Xie Yu smiled and suddenly in his heart, he kind of looked forward to how Tang Yuan would look on the wedding day. “Oh, yes, the book I gave you last time, have you finished memorizing it?”

Tang Yuan shrunk his neck; he had only studied about half of that “Demon, Ghost, and Supernatural Knowledge Encyclopedia ” book, so he felt a little guilty.

“Not….not yet.” When he finished speaking, he bowed his head low to show remorse.

Xie Yu smiled until his eyes curved. Then, pretending to be solemn, he said, “Your talent is high, but this cultural knowledge still needs to be remembered well. Otherwise, when you encounter ghosts, you won"t initially be able to make the right judgment and response.”

Tang Yuan knew that he was correct, so he gave a strong nod, “Yes, Shushu, you"re right.”

The smile froze on Xie Yu"s face, as he thought, steady now, you can"t spit up blood.

Tang Yuan didn"t know his thoughts and continued, “When I was catching the ghost this last time, I didn"t initially know what the purple color in the black qi was all about.” Tang Yuan felt ashamed, “Ay, I came back to study the book and only then did I know that this kind of aura appearing on people was a sign of a debt of sin. So, Shushu, you"re very right.”

Xie Yu nodded with the abnormal, fake smile on his face and said, “As long as you know.”

Tang Yuan smiled broadly, “Fortunately, I was lucky enough to meet Shushu.”

“*cough cough*,” Xie Yu coughed a few times, struggling hard to endure the urge to spit up blood. “Tang Yuan, can you……” just stop calling me Shushu? He didn"t finish the sentence, because he thought of another thing. If he asked Tang Yuan not to call him Shushu, then that would indicate that he cared what Tang Yuan called him and if he cared, then he would be showing that he felt……old!

For a moment, turbulence filled Xie Yu"s heart and his eyes watered a bit, but the smile remained on his face, although the smile looked like that of a mask.

“Shushu, what were you going to say?” asked Tang Yuan.

Xie Yu brought out a book with a smile and said, “This is “The Book of Ten Thousand Ghost-Binding Spells”, I hope you"ll memorize it within a month.”

Tang Yuan replied, “A month! This lowly one can"t do it!”

Xie Yu"s smile grew deeper and, with affection in his gaze, he said, “Shushu is optimistic you can.”

That “Shushu” bit very strongly.

Tang Yuan pursed his lips and didn"t reply, but in his heart, he thought, Xie Yu really likes my use of ‘Shushu". After I called him ‘Shushu", he was so excited that he pulled out a treasured book to let me study.

The author has something to say:
Hoping that Sating His l.u.s.ts can remain calm!!
