"Will he tell us so easily?" Bai Su's question was not long before the ghost revealed it.She never expected—this ghost is still an honest ghost who only answers questions, has no secrets, no concealment, and no sophistry!
The black cat jumped into Bai Su's arms and rubbed its head against her arm to comfort her. Its eyes seemed to say: "Children are ignorant, let's not get angry with him."

As ghosts who can easily read human voices, the only two in front of them expressed a lot of pressure.To be honest, is it still sensible?No wonder humans love to lie so much...

The ghost sent Chu Yao away long before Bai Su asked.So at this moment, he is very generous and directly admits the speculation of Bai Su and Song Tianyi.

Of course, Chu Yao is not so easy to fool, the ghost took a little thought, first asked Chu Yao to pour him a glass of water, and then disliked that the water poured was not as good as his wife's.Chu Yao's expression changed immediately, he shook the teacup and walked out of the room.Bai Su wanted to catch up, but was stopped by the ghost.

"Don't you have something to ask me?"

Bai Su was taken aback for a moment, and reflexively wanted to ask him how he knew, and then realized that this ghost was just playing around when he was peeking into someone's heart, and it wouldn't be surprising if he knew she had something to ask him.

Thinking of this, Bai Su didn't bother to ask any more questions, and waved his hands and said, "You can answer if you want to answer, and if you don't want to answer, we won't..." It's your fault.

Before finishing the last three words, the ghost raised his head slightly and began to babble, and the content of the babble was clearly reminiscing about his past while answering Bai Su's question.

But thinking that his answers were all shuttled in the memory, Bai Su still listened patiently.Of course, during the listening process, she did not forget to complain that the ghost was too cooperative, so the scene at the beginning of this chapter appeared.

The ghost said: "I don't remember how long I have been dead, maybe decades, maybe only a few short months. It's not that I don't remember anything about my previous life, but what I remember is too little and too much." Less... I don't know if there are still important people in this world. From the moment I became a ghost, no one can see me, no one can talk to me, and no one can live with me... ... I gradually began to accept my fate, I thought, maybe I can only go on alone like this... But, just when I was disheartened, Chu Yao appeared. He is like the sunshine in my life... "

"Stop!!" Although Bai Su knew that the answer must be found in the memory, but, "Can you please briefly say, let's skip those good memories that have little to do with the answer, okay?"

The ghost blinked in confusion: "What I'm talking about now has a lot to do with what you want to know!"

"……what is the relationship?"

"I have to explain in advance how much Chu Yao means to me, so that you can understand why I later lied to him that I would help him hold a ceremony so that he would never see ghosts again!"

"……I see."

The ghost saw that Bai Su had no objection, and then raised his head slightly and fell into the memory: "He is like the sun in my life... the sun... Huh? Do you think it is better to use the sun here, or the sun?"

"...It doesn't matter! We have understood your emotions! We know how important Chu Yao is to you! So now! You can start talking about holding the ceremony!"

"Huh..." The ghost smacked his mouth in dissatisfaction, and after confirming that the other party was really impatient to listen, he had to obediently skip the compliment, "You also know how important he is to me .So when he asked me if there was any way for him to return to his previous life without worrying about bumping into ghosts, I was quite angry. I felt that I was not worthy, and I treated this man wholeheartedly. , but wished that I would never see me... Anger controlled my reason, but I didn't show it, but calmly calculated. I lied to him that I had a solution and was willing to help him, his joyful look The way I looked... made my only little struggle disappear. I desperately wanted to tie him firmly to my side. I thought, I have to take him to a place where he can never escape , and the reason why he rejects me is probably because I am not alone... I thought about it and thought that this era is a good choice. Here, he has nowhere to go except to stay by my side, and I, You can pretend to be a human again..."

"Pretending? What do you mean by pretending? Are you not a human being now?" Bai Su still didn't hold back, interrupting the memory of the other party.

"No—actually, I'm just a wisp of ghost possessed by my previous life."

"How come... Your previous life... Wasn't it you?"

"My previous life and I can be said to be the same person, or not. It's like I am dead as a later life, but my previous life is still living in this era and continuing the lives I have experienced... It cannot be done here Say 'like...'?"

"...that's not the point! The point is... what's the point?" Bai Su was so surrounded by ghosts that he forgot what he wanted to ask.

The little ghost took over and said, "The point is, since you are still a ghost, why haven't I felt your presence all these years?"

"Huh? Is this the point..." Bai Su murmured in confusion.

The ghost looked at the little ghost: "I know you have been trying to find me for more than ten years, but in order not to let people disturb my life with Chu Yao, I deliberately hid myself."

"Now you show up and tell us this, why?" The black cat finally spoke after being silent for a long time.

The ghost sighed, and said, "It was about two years ago. Before that, I got along well with Chu Yao. Seeing him getting used to living with me by his side. But... I forgot , in this life, I want to marry a woman... I can't go against this history. I broke into this place from a later life and changed a lot of the established trajectory. If I don't marry that woman again... I hesitate After a long time, I finally decided to follow the original trajectory. I planned to discuss it with Chu Yao later, but I didn’t expect him to leave the day before I got married... I left the body of my previous life and chased him all the way. After I got him safe, I suddenly didn't have the courage to chase after him... After that, I thought about it alone for a long time, and I found that I was really too selfish. I changed not only Chu Yao, but also Chu Yao for my own selfish desires. Innocent your lives, even more people... your relatives, friends... I want to make amends, but I can't make up my mind to give up on Chu Yao... Finally I decided not to hide myself anymore, if you can find me, I will help you return to your original world."

After hearing the ghost's words, Bai Su still felt unbelievable: "You really figured it out? Want to help us go back? Including Chu Yao?"

The ghost smiled slightly: "If it is better for him to do so, I am willing to let him return to his original position, and let myself return to his original position."

The only thing that can accompany him is loneliness and loneliness.There is no other person, no more Chu Yao, no more joy.It belonged to him—the original position.

"So... when do you plan to let us go back?" Bai Su asked very disruptively.

"anytime."

"Really? It's better to hit the sun than choose the day! Let's do it now!"

"...Can't you give me more time to spend with Chu Yao?"

"Don't make it seem like you won't be able to see him when you go back! Even if you don't plan to tie Chu Yao up like before, with your wall-penetrating skill, wouldn't you be able to see Chu Yao anytime you want?" Bai Su said cheerfully. He commanded, "Stop the ink! Brat, hurry up and pull Chu Yao back!"

"..."

Seeing the little ghost standing still, Bai Su wondered, "What's wrong with you? Didn't you also rush to go back before? Why don't you feel happy now?"

The little ghost opened his mouth hesitantly, looked at the ghost beside him who was winking at him, gritted his teeth, and ran out: "I'll go find Chu Yao!"

Bai Su: "...What's wrong with this child?"

The black cat was silent, looking at the ghost, worried in his heart, hoping that things were not as he imagined.
