Chapter 16: That year, Love affair

”How come you are in the store?” I returned to the store and was putting wreaths and paper dolls on display when Liu Jianjun arrived.

”Why can't I be at the store?” I knew what this old bloke was trying to say. He firmly believed that I was having a fling and supposedly right now……. so how could I be here doing business?

”Alright, as an experienced man, I should give you some advice. Little brother, you need to spend money to chase girls, so your business needs to be doing well for that.” Liu Jianjun made himself at home and poured himself a cup of herbal tea while giving me an earnest advice.

”This is like having yellow mud drop into your pants, but you can't even explain that it's not s.h.i.+t.” I was speechless at Liu Jianjun's advice.

”Alright, I am relieved to see you are okay. I was afraid you would remain stubborn and get beaten to death by people.” I was very touched that Liu Jianjun had come only to check my condition. But this guy's words are really unpleasant to hear.

”I am leaving. Find a girlfriend through proper way. You are not that young now, don't just think of other's wife.” Putting down the teacup, Lui Jianjun said to me.

”How about I ask Xu Hairong to introduce someone to you?” While going out the door, he didn't forget to put in another word.

”Brother, don't harm me!” I immediately rose my hands in surrender to Liu Jianjun.

”What brother, call me uncle.” Liu Jianjun seriously corrected me.

Sending off this guy, I sat in the store, becoming bored while waiting for business to drop in. Selling wreaths and paper servants were not similar to selling other things, you couldn't attract buyers by shouting. You could shout that your fruits were fresh when selling fruits; you could shout that you are having a discount when selling clothes, but could I write big discount on the door and say buy one wreath and get one free? Ah, life, it isn't fair.

Even till evening, not one of the wreaths were sold. If it were not for foster father's savings, I wonder if I would have to move bricks to feed myself. People die one after another, foster father made a lot with this rituals store, but why am I not able to do it?

I looked at the time and it was 8 pm. At such time, people could go shopping, watch movie, go to internet bars, but they wouldn't check if there were new wreaths. I rubbed my sore back and stood up to close the door.

”Excuse me……” Right when I was going to close the door, I heard a sound from outside.

”Excuse me, is the master here?” I opened the door and saw a man clothed in suit, outside the door. That man was standing in the shadows, his voice was somewhat airy as he asked me.

”Looking for foster father?” I sniffed the air and found a familiar smell, a ghost took the initiative to look for foster father? Looks like the world has changed! I pondered in my heart.

”Do you need something from him?” I put my hands inside my pocket and asked. I had exorcism talismans in my pocket, if this male ghost showed even a bit of evil intent, I would put him down on the spot.
