C20 (1/2)

Suspicion, disgust, and gratitude, these are the emotions I am currently feeling towards Liu Songxian.

What kind of relationship did he have with his adoptive father? What kind of relationship did the series of events that happened today have with him?

I don't know about all this, but Liu Songxian carried me back home.

When I left, I was forcefully taken away by two people, so both the door and the room door were left wide open.

After Liu Songxian brought me back, I saw that there was actually a little girl sitting on the brick bed in my own house.

This little girl looked to be twelve or thirteen years old and was very delicate, just like a doll.

What kind of person was this?

I was stunned for a moment, then was placed on the brick bed by Liu Songxian.

This little girl is definitely a beauty. Her big watery eyes stared at me for a long time before she asked:

”Elder sister, are you alright?”

”Who are you?”

Although I am somewhat wary of living people, I have no way to turn cold towards a little girl like her.

Those innocent eyes, let me a little lament, once... Are my eyes the same?

”Uncle Liu, you told me to wait here. Are you waiting for this sister?”

the little girl asked.

That's right, Lingling, you have to take care of big sister, you hear me?

Liu Songxian patted the girl called Lingling's head and said.

I am completely shocked. Does Liu Songxian know this little girl? And from their conversation, Liu Songxian told her to come over?

Seeing me staring at him, Liu Songxian laughed:

”This is a little girl from our village, her parents are gone. Her father and I even had some relatives, and when her father was still alive, he helped me.

Now that my daughter has grown up, it's time for me to learn how to support myself. I plan to leave her with you.

Teach her how to take care of you and teach her how to take care of you. What do you think? ”

Liu Songxian's words made me clench my teeth.

”You want to make this little girl your Funerary Lady?”

”It's not too late to start learning Funerary Lady's skills at this age, is it?”

”You can't give birth to a person and you can't leave your soul behind. Such a good girl, it's not like you have no money. You want her to do this kind of useless work?”

If an ordinary family wasn't poor to a certain degree, they would never let their own children do useless work.

Especially those words of the Funerary Lady s, they were definitely not groundless rumors.

The Funerary Lady had seen too many dead people off and on before. He carried the Evil Qi and the resentment of Ghost Being s with him.

The Funerary Lady was a profession that shortened lifespans. Very few people were able to complete their life as a Funerary Lady, so they would not be able to complete their soul.

Seeing Liu Songxian not saying a word, I became even more furious, and even my breathing became a little hurried.

Logically speaking, after enduring so much torture, my temper should have been long gone. However, the little girl's words made me feel the same way.

I alone was enough to bear the pain of childhood... Such a cute girl should have led a happier life …

By my side, the current me is unable to protect myself, so how can I protect such a girl?

How could Liu Songxian not think of this, it's just that...

Perhaps, it's just like the gossip I heard when I was young. After all, they aren't my biological parents, so who would truly treat you well …

However, he couldn't say a word. He just said three words:

”I refuse.”

But then he thought, if this girl was brought back by Liu Songxian, would she suffer the same torture as him?

Liu Songxian is the same as my foster father, he's not a good person, he's the same kind of scum.

Looking at his smile, there was an indescribable disgust in my tone. Thus, before I could finish my words of rejection, I immediately changed my words.

”I promise you.”

When I said those four words, my heart was already extremely conflicted. I didn't know if this decision was right or wrong.
