C279 (1/2)

I don't know much about it, and I can't tell what kind of tree it is, but the trunk is short and the lowest branch I can reach out and touch.

Being able to touch it didn't mean anything. I dangled from the tree a few times, wondering if I could throw myself up, but I was thinking too much. It wasn't that easy for a hundred people to get rid of gravity.

”Hey!” Are you really not going to help me? ” Seeing that Song Nan was still standing there, I was a little discouraged. I shook the tree a few times and decided to give up. No matter what I wanted to do, the baby wouldn't accompany me.

I had just let go when a hand reached out from the tree fork, grabbed my hand, and lifted me up.

”Song Nan! ”Song Nan!” I called out to him, but he was already on his way up.

It felt like I had been pulled into a tree, or into another space. The hand that pulled me in quickly disappeared, and I was suspended in darkness.

I suddenly thought of something, this is my nerves, even if Key did something to me, I am very clear-headed now, so this place should be under my control.

So, that explains why I was pulled up here … That's not right! I wasn't pulled up because I wanted to be pulled up. Could it be that it was the first vengeful spirit?

I closed my eyes and began to feel it. Slowly, I felt as if I had landed on the ground, and the sound around me grew louder.

He slowly opened his eyes. How awkward, why am I lying in the middle of the road?!

A face suddenly appeared in front of me. It was an old man with wrinkles all over his face. He asked worriedly, ”Lady, are you alright?”

I stood up and said, ”Uncle, I'm fine. It's just that I accidentally slipped just now. It hurt a little. I just lied on the ground for a while.”

”It's the new year, stop hanging around outside. Hurry up and go home. Your parents are definitely waiting for you at home.” The old man muttered something about me as he got back on the tricycle behind him.

Tricycles like this are rare, so this could have happened a few years ago.

Although I was mentally prepared for such a thing to happen, I didn't expect myself to be suddenly confronted by a foreign environment. I didn't know what this vengeful spirit meant.

Did he want to show me how he died?

Whatever it means, I think I should be right to follow that old man.

That old man rides his bike very slowly, so it's not a problem for me to walk behind him at my normal speed.

When the old man saw me following him, he stopped the car and seemed to be waiting for me. When I reached his side, he rode slowly again.

”Miss, aren't you in a hurry to go home?” After the old man finished speaking, he coughed violently a few times and said, ”Listen to my advice. My parents are old, so they can't expect you to earn any money. Even if you can't stay by their side, you'll be satisfied as long as you go home often.”

These words really pierced my heart. I didn't come home often to visit, but now that I've gotten close to the Empress Dowager and my father, Song Nan said that our fates have dispersed. If I appear around them now, it will only bring disaster to them.

Smiling bitterly, I asked the old man, ”Why haven't you come home yet?”

The grandpa pointed behind him and coughed a few times. ”I'm going to get some fruits.”

I took a look and saw that there were really a lot of fruits. With a cart full of them, it was enough for me to eat for a year. So I curiously asked him, ”Uncle, you bought so many fruits. Are you done eating?”
