Chapter 19 (2/2)

”No, you need to at least take care of her till she gets married.” The male ghost's mother-in-law stood up and said.

”Whether she gets married or not, I will take care of her at most till she is twenty five. Five years, I will protect her . If we go by your words and she doesn't marry, do I take care of her for a lifetime?” I said to her.

”Alright, taking care of her till she is twenty five will do.” The male ghost saw that I wouldn't concede no matter what and promptly agreed.

”The safe is in Jiangcheng Industrial and Commercial Bank. The pa.s.sword is 123123.” Not waiting for me to talk, hastily told the pa.s.sword to me, afraid I would renege.

”We can relax now. We will have to trouble you with our daughter. It is time to report to the underworld.” The male ghost looked at his wrist.w.a.tch and bowed to me.

”You can rest at ease.” I said to him. I felt Gu Pianpian was quite fortunate; she at least had a loving father,but I was just an abandoned kid.

The ghosts left my store, floating on the silent street.  ”Five years? What if my granddaughter gets bullied after that?” The male ghost's mother-in-law complained to her son-in-law.

”Mother, you don't need to worry. With our looks and five years of being in contact, I don't believe this kid won't be moved. At that time, even without anyone begging him, he would beg to take care of Gu Pianpian for a lifetime. Ahhahaha!” A ghostly laughter floated around the street. I vaguely felt like I had been schemed against.

”Ahhahahha!” The ghosts laughed heartly and stepped on the road to the underworld.

”Old Liu, look after my store for few days.” I couldn't get a good sleep the whole night. Early next morning, I called Liu Jianjun.

”What did you do? Did you not use protection and the girl wants you to take responsibility, so you are planning to run away?” To Liu Jianjun, I definitely had something going on with Yan Pingming.

”Run, your sister. I am going to make a trip to Jiangcheng. Take a stroll around here when you are free, don't let anyone rob my store.” I told Liu Jianjun.

”Leave it, only a blind thief would go steal your paper servants, wreaths and other ritual stuff.” Liu Jian said.

”What if there is a thief with such taste?” I yawned and replied.

”Get lost!” Liu Jianjun was amused.

”How about I treat you to a meal later?” I was going to give him some benefits.

”If you invite my whole team, then it’s a deal!” Liu Jianjun seized the opportunity.

”Deal!” Wasn't it only a meal? Whether in a grand hotel or a roadside stall, eating was eating. Seafood or fried noodles, both were meals. I rubbed my nose and agreed.

”When are you going to Jiangcheng?” Liu Jianjun asked. Joking aside, he was going to be meticulous about this.

”I am going to buy intercity train ticket today and will leave tomorrow. In my twenty years, I have only been to the provincial capital twice.” I replied to Liu Jianjun.

”Country b.u.mpkin. Go around and gain experience.” I could make out the disdainful expression on Liu Jianjun's face when he said this.
