Chapter 18 (2/2)

“Don’t talk about killing in my house. I pity what happened to you two so I wanted to try to be a mediator. Understand each other’s problems and let go of your hatred; enter the reincarnation cycle. Otherwise, do you really think I can’t subdue you?” The female ghost was going crazy; I silently held two exorcism talismans and said to her.

“Just you? Seeing as you let me in and also gave me an offering, I don’t want to trouble you. I will immediately leave after killing this kid and we will never see other other after this.” The female ghost rose from the ground and opened her umbrella; nefarious aura hovered around her whole body. Her face was malevolent as she said to me.

“Hatred has already covered your eyes. Take a look, the person in front of you, is he still alive?” I shook my head and moved beside the male ghost as I said to the female ghost.

“After Little Tong died, I raised our daughter by myself and didn’t re-marry. Maybe it’s fate or maybe I really am a jinx. When my daughter pa.s.sed the college entrance, I suddenly suffered from heart disease. Mother, you can hate me, I can understand you. Because I have experienced raising her, I know how worried you were at that time. If you want to kill me, then do it. Let the twenty years of grievance end.” The male ghost walked in front of his mother-in-law and said to her.

“You still have the nerve to mention Little Tong? You really care for her so much? Then tell me where she is? Has she gone to enter the reincarnation cycle or is she still wandering around as a ghost?” The female ghost asked.

“Mother, I have always been beside you. Don’t hurt him.” Right at this moment, a misty figure appeared beside the female ghost and gently pulled her arm.

“Little Tong!” The male ghost excitedly moved forward and tried to hold that figure’s hand.

“Dear, is our daughter well? Please forgive me for leaving you guys.” That figure was Little Tong’s ghost. She caressed her husband’s cheek and softly spoke.

“She is well, she is well. She is studying in college and she obtained a scholars.h.i.+p too. We don’t lack money now, but she is able to stand on her own feet. Little Tong, how have you been?” The man felt his wife’s hands that was on his cheek. Why I am calling him a human? That’s because I felt he was more human than many humans right now.

“It has been hard on you.” The woman gently caressed the man’s cheek with a painful and guilty expression.

“Mother, let the hatred go. Your daughter will accompany you and won’t go anywhere.” The woman took her hands back and requested her mother.

The female ghost’s grievance dissipated when her daughter returned to her side. She tenderly felt her daughter’s hair just like she did when her daughter was young.

“So, you were with mother all along. Mother will listen to you.” After a long while, the nefarious aura around her dissipated and she agreed to her daughter’s request.
