“It’s okay, I think we should clarify this. Or else, we will not be able to shut their mouths!” Xu Lan said with a chuckle and glanced towards the crew-cut guy in a seemingly unintentional manner.
“…Uhm, sure. The sky’s still bright, those who are still awake can just listen to him. I need to run some errands, I’ll leave with Sheng Ya first,” Bai Wu’s sluggish voice echoed throughout the open ground, denying any forms of objection.
A huge palm strangled Xu Lan, making it difficult for him to breathe. He took a deep breath and asked Bai Wu to take good care of Xu Lan while he laughed heartily. Bai Wu nodded before walking in tandem towards the back of the mountain, into the gloomy forest.
“Hey, you came to your senses! The elder has left, you should tell us what’s going on.”
Somehow the crew-cut guy took a stool from the house and sat in front of Xu Lan. Was this brat preparing to have a long talk with him?
The whole matter was fairly simple. The decision was made at the spur of the moment. One night, with the bright moon shining in the sky, there were two Bai Wu, one called out for Xu Lan along the corridor, another gave a deadly stare at Xu Lan while he sat on the bed.
Who was Bai Wu? Not only did he rejected Xu Lan’s love, but he also had a tight grip on him. He knew exactly about what he planned to do judging from a single movement of his eyebrow. Xu Lan had a whirlpool of evil thoughts churning inside during that few seconds when he stood still in front of the bed.
In actual fact, all the while Xu Lan was walking towards the direction of the ancient well. The temple scene was merely an illusion. Bai Wu woke Sheng Ya right after Xu Lan left and followed right behind him. Initially, he thought that someone was playing tricks on them, but he never thought that a depth charge could bomb out a real ghost.
Everybody saw what happened next with their own eyes. There was nothing left to say.
“Tsk, what’s the big deal about this. You guys had planned this beforehand. You made us worry for nothing!” The crew-cut guy rolled his eyes and said in disdain, “But I heard that you were calling Bai Wu’s name?”
There would always be people who could find fault in everything. One should not hold back towards these kinds of people!
“Tssk, what’s wrong with me calling for my own son? Why should I report to you about everything? Are you my grandchild!” Xu Lan lashed out bluntly, which made the crew-cut guy blue in the face.
“Are you guys done talking? A few days ago, Sheng Ya and I found that the back of the mountain has an abundance of medicinal herbs. You guys should go and pick a few for daily usage. It’s quite expensive to purchase them, and we have no idea when will we be able to complete the mission and leave this place,” Bai Wu threw a huge bunch of medicinal herbs on the floor and said.
“We’ve finished talking. Those who are supposed to sleep get the hell onto your own bed! Then, there’s no need for you to be afraid of a ghost haunting you at night!” Xu Lan said to the crew-cut guy while he glared viciously at him.
“Who are you trying to fool! There’s no such thing!” The crew-cut guy said as he braced himself, refusing to conform.
“Hmm? No such thing? What kind of place do you think this is?” Xu Lan curled the corner of his mouth and looked at the crew-cut guy as if he was concerned about a foolish person.
The crew-cut guy grabbed a bunch of medicinal herbs and left in frustration. Since the one who started the commotion left, the crowd got bored and headed back to their respective rooms. The only thing that made Xiu He endure all sorts of humiliation was just a few words from her lover. She tried every possible way just to get his attention, but they were still separated by fate for forty years.
It could not be that he also had to live in regret throughout his entire life and take the unspeakable secret to his grave?
Xu Lan rested on his arms and thought back and forth before making the most daring decision in his entire life. He decided to pursue Bai Wu!
Instantly, Xu Lan felt that the unpleasantness that lingered within his chest started to dissipate. The air was scented with the smell of green grass and soil. Xu Lan felt much lighter after breathing in the scented air.
Hmm… If he likes Sheng Ya, let there be a fair competition. He had means and ways to secure Bai Wu beside him, moreover…
