The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

When You Mu finally could no longer smell the blood on his body and came back wet after taking a shower, Xiao Yu had also tidied himself up.

After calming down, you still have to deal with the important matters first.

Xiao Yu knew that his stepmother was cautious and would not leave too many traces, so he was not in a hurry to expose her.

On the one hand, there is no evidence, and even if you report it to the police, the final result will probably be unsatisfactory. If you are not careful, you may be accused of falsely accusing your stepmother and being disobedient and unfilial.

On the other hand, Madam Xiao's good reputation has been spread far and wide for a long time, and everyone in Lingcheng knows that Madam Xiao is kind-hearted. If she were to reveal her sinister intentions now, I'm afraid no one would believe it.

Even if Xiao Yu told all this to Xiao's father, the other party would probably hesitate.

In fact, he now clearly understood the other party's thoughts, but Mrs. Xiao was still unclear about the information she had.

It's not difficult to deal with, it just takes some time and patience.

What Xiao Yu should do most now is to cure his father's illness and not give Madam Xiao the opportunity to take ruthless action.

"That's not difficult. Just find a few little ghosts to help guard it."

When it comes to the issue of available people in the mansion, Xiao Yu wants to send Zhu Huan, his close confidant who has served him since childhood, to look after his father. However, he is worried that doing so will arouse Madam Xiao's suspicion and disrupt his plan. After thinking it over for a while, he has not yet reached a conclusion.

For You Mu, it was not a difficult task.

After Xiedao died, those ghosts became wandering ghosts. Those who carried the causal lines on their bodies were released by Youmu to resolve the causal relationship.

Also, because of the command of heaven, the rest, in order to prevent ghosts from causing harm to innocent people, are branded. Although their freedom is not restricted, they can know and limit the behavior of these ghosts.

It’s no big deal to recruit a few helpers.

"Thank you very much...my lady." The problem was solved. Xiao Yu raised his eyes and looked at You Mu, then shyly looked away and thanked him.

"Wife? Who is your wife?" You Mu asked back, leaning against the couch and raising his eyebrows.

His face is thicker than the city wall, and he just climbs up the pole. This is what dogs do.

Although it might be a bit too quick to directly call the other person "wife", Xiao Yu felt that since he was responsible, there was nothing wrong with calling her that.

Moreover, since he is called husband, then the other party must be his wife!

"You clearly admitted it this morning. I know that although the marriage was too hasty last night, and Mrs. Xiao's plan was involved... But wait for me."

"We've settled this matter, let's get married again, with three matchmakers and six betrothals, all with full etiquette!"

Suddenly, Xiao Yu realized why the other party did not recognize him and explained it seriously.

The red-clothed ghost laughed out loud, and lay sideways on the square table between the couches, tilting his head to look at the other party, with a few drops of blood in his eyes and tears running down his cheeks, threatening:

"…My dear husband, I am a fierce ghost. You want to marry me? Are you crazy?"

Xiao Yu was frightened, but she quickly took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the ghost man's pale face, wiping away the blood and tears, and asked helplessly:

"Why are you bleeding? Are you really injured in the fight with that evildoer? Do you need energy? How can I give it to you?"

That's what's written in the storybook, and it's roughly true. If what the other party said is true, he is like a zombie, and he can't die anyway because his life span has not yet ended, then giving him some energy is worth it.

Even if he was an ordinary person, the other party saved him. He was grateful to the other party and was willing to repay him in any way.

"Aren't you afraid that I will suck you dry?" As he said that, the red-clothed ghost wiped the blood and tears from the corner of his eyes with his ring finger, put it to his lips, and licked it with the tip of his tongue.

“…How to suck?” Xiao Yu paused as if he had thought of something, his eyes swept across You Mu’s red lips, and the scenes he had seen in the storybook could not stop coming to his mind.

You Mu laughed, the puppy had a brain full of nonsense, he hadn't even deceived anyone yet, but his bewildered head was full of garbage.

If it were someone else, Xiao Yu would have been sold out and had to help count the money!

That’s right, in the original world, I was helping him count money!

Do you really like it that much?

Thinking of what Yi Ming did in the original world, the smile on You Mu's lips faded a little, and there were some complicated emotions in his eyes.

You Mu stopped teasing him and said, "Xiao Lang, do you know how to write the four characters for 'nonsense'? I'm just teasing you."

Reaching out and tapping the other person's forehead which was full of waste, You Mu stroked his sleeves and disappeared.

"...wait..." The red gauze disappeared between Xiao Yu's fingers. This time, Xiao Yu failed to catch it. Before he could finish the three words "wait a moment", the other party disappeared.

Xiao Yu lowered his head and looked at the gaps between his fingers, speechless for a moment.

He didn't understand. When the other party said "teasing him", was he referring only to the last few sentences, or did he also include everything before that...

She didn't even answer whether she was willing to marry him...
