C48 (2/2)

The ball of light trembled.

I nodded my head and picked up a knife that was placed on the table beside me. I lightly cut a small wound on my finger and dark red blood immediately gushed out from the wound.

”Hurry up!” Normally, I didn't feel anything when I accidentally injured myself, but now that I took the initiative to cut my finger, it really hurt a little. I grinned and shouted towards the ball of light.

The ball of light instantly floated to the side of my finger and wrapped around the finger that was bleeding profusely. Under the nourishment of my blood, the ball of light flickered with a flickering red light.

A few minutes later, when my fingers felt numb, the figure finally became clear. It was actually the old lady I had seen in the photo earlier.

”Thank you.” The old lady respectfully said. She then walked next to Sun Hu and kept touching Sun Wu's head. Her face was full of kindness.

”You stayed in the mortal world for Xiaohu?” I asked what seemed like nonsense, just to make sure the old lady meant it.

”Don't you know it's bad for him?” It was normal for a deceased elder to miss his family, but it was quite rare for the old lady to be like this.

”Understood,” the old lady replied, her voice hoarse.

”I order you to go back in the name of Yin. Otherwise, you know the consequences …” I clenched my teeth and forced myself to say.

”You're not allowed to chase my grandma away!” Sun Hu's face hardened as he clenched his fists in anger.

I ignored Xiaohu and said to the old lady, ”Yang is the way to go, Yin is the way to go. Since you don't belong to this world, there is no need for you to continue pestering me. This is good for both you and the living.”

”I know.” The old lady sighed and looked at Sun Hu with reluctance. Finally, she suddenly raised her head and said with a sinister look in her eyes, ”If I don't protect him, I'm afraid he won't live for long.”

”Why?” I was surprised and thought he wouldn't live long if you followed him like this.

”It's all because of his father.” The old lady wiped her eyes, though there were no tears.

The old lady then explained in detail about the whole situation.

It turned out that ever since Sun Sheng had married Xiao Yue, Xiao Yue had doted on Sun Sheng in front of him. However, she had secretly used all means at her disposal to torture Sun Wu, such as not giving him food or beating him up.

Moreover, the most insidious part about this woman was that she had used all sorts of methods to beat Sun Wu. For example, she had pierced him with needles, hit him from behind a book, or hit his feet from a hidden place.

In the beginning, Sun Wu had tried to complain, but unfortunately, Sun Sheng was not injured after a thorough inspection. In addition, he was busy with business and had not spent much effort.

Thus, Sun Hu became more and more disappointed. In the end, no matter what happened to Xiao Yue, he would not complain and he would still bear the consequences himself.

At the same time, Xiao Yue became even more serious. She would occasionally poison Sun Hu's food, but she did not dare poison him. Instead, she would put some of her family's medicines and outdated medicines into Xiao Hu's food.

When Sun Sheng brought Sun Hu to the grave, the old granny found out. Thus, she quietly followed beside Sun Hu. As for the bowl of silver ear soup that Sun Sheng mentioned, the old granny knew that it was drugged, so she purposely spilled it.

I looked at Sun Hu and saw that he was crying when he heard it. It seemed that what the old lady said was true, so I couldn't help but gasp. I thought to myself, that woman looks good, but I didn't expect her to be so sinister.

However, the old lady couldn't do this, so I said to her, ”But how long can you protect your child?”

”I can take care of her for one day, but I can take care of her for one minute.” The old lady sighed and patted Hu Zi's head with a benevolent expression.

I couldn't help but think that if this matter was to be removed from the root, the most important thing would be to establish Sun Sheng's image as the father in Sun Hu's heart. Thus, I nodded and said to the old lady: ”I'll call Sun Sheng here and explain everything that you should say.

The old lady hesitated for a moment before silently nodding.

I heaved a sigh of relief, turned around, and opened the door. I called in the expectant Sun Sheng.
