Chapter 25: Chapter 25: Two Versions of the Truth_1

Qin Sisi looked at Ye You in astonishnt: "It was you who attacked, right?"

Ye You looked at her silently: "Clearly it was you who attacked."

Qin Sisi was startled: "? Am I that powerful?"

"It’s not that you’re powerful, it’s the charm bracelet and the Divine Dog’s Fury that are powerful." Ye You bluntly explained the truth, "The bracelet can protect you, and the Divine Dog’s Fury can exorcise evil spirits."

Lowering her head to look at the two items ntioned by Ye You, Qin Sisi took a deep breath. Although it was a close call, the feeling just now was as if she had taken a spin at the Ghost Gate. However, it seed that the fierce ghost was greatly damaged, indicating that the Divine Dog’s Fury was indeed powerful.

Staring at the wailing fierce ghost lying on the ground, Ye You’s gaze turned cold: "Becoming a corporeal form so quickly, impressive."

The fierce ghost glared at Qin Sisi, showing a hint of fear despite his unwillingness and hoarsely asked: "Who are you exactly?"

Now that she understood the power of the items she was carrying, Qin Sisi wasn’t as scared as before. She stepped forward and boldly said, "Who I am doesn’t matter. What I want to do is what matters."

A hint of confusion appeared on the fierce ghost’s face: "Then what do you want to do?"

Qin Sisi glanced at Ye You, who remained silent, so she directly said, "I need Soul Power, if you lend

your Soul Power, I can help you fulfill your unfinished wishes."

The fierce ghost’s expression appeared a bit understanding: "So, you want Soul Power."

Just then, hurried footsteps echoed from the staircase. Qin Sisi turned and saw the owner of the dumpling shop, a tall skinny man with a dark complexion was following behind her. She didn’t know what their relationship was.

Obviously, the female owner also saw Qin Sisi, her face changed. Ignoring the black cat on Qin Sisi’s shoulder, she cautiously asked: "Miss, what are you doing in my shop in the middle of the night?"

Qin Sisi didn’t mind the woman’s attitude. If she were in her shoes, she probably wouldn’t easily accept a stranger appearing in her shop in the middle of the night. Thinking this woman might be the target of the fierce ghost, Qin Sisi decided to be straightforward, she pointed at the direction of the fierce ghost and said, "I am here to catch the ghost."

"Catch a ghost?" The woman’s face went through several changes as she looked in the direction Qin Sisi had indicated, recognizing the fierce ghost who was threatening her life.

At this mont, the fierce ghost was swaying as he got up from the ground.

The ghost and the woman stared at each other until the woman suddenly let out a shrill scream.

Qin Sisi quickly covered her ears.

Ye You looked at the woman with a faint expression. With such a strong reaction, it looked like she recognized the ghost. This woman might have so secrets of her own.

The fierce ghost glared at the owner, gritted his teeth and yelled, "Bitch, you owe

my life!"

As he said that, he disappeared, turning into a cloud of black mist and swooping towards the woman.

The young man who had been standing behind the woman hastily stepped forward and shielded her.

Qin Sisi was about to rush over when she saw a shadow flicker in front of her. Ye You was also standing in front of the pair, facing the black mist. He blinked lightly, and two lines of purple light shot out, directly into the black mist.

Another raspy cry rang out, and then the black mist disappeared, revealing the human form of the fierce ghost. This ti he collapsed on the ground, looking even more disastrous than before. There were two spots on his chest spewing out black smoke.

The ghost patted himself hastily to stop the black smoke, leaving two small black holes on his chest. The fearful expression in the ghost’s eyes grew as he looked terrified of Ye You and Qin Sisi.

Ye You said to Qin Sisi, "Ask him why he wanted to kill."

Qin Sisi nodded at the ghost and asked, "Who exactly are you? Why are you trying to hurt the owner?"

ntioning the woman owner made the ghost’s eyes filled with rage once again as he bitterly responded, "Why hurt her? Ask her!"

Qin Sisi turned her head and saw that the female owner’s strength was nearly drained. She was leaning on the young man, her face pale, and her eyes vacant.

Qin Sisi turned back to the ghost, "She can’t speak right now, you will have to tell us."

The ghost "huffed" in anger and roughened his voice, "I’ll say it, even though I’m not the guilty one."

Then, the ghost began to tell his story.

"My na is Wang Dashan, and that bitch over there is Wang Juan, my wife. We’re from the sa village, have been married for seven to eight years, we have two kids. The year before last, we left our children with the elderly while we ca to the city to work. After a year of hard work, we saved up so money and borrowed so to buy this dumpling shop. The business in the shop was hectic, so we hired so help, him."

Wang Dashan pointed bitterly at the young man holding up Wang Juan, continuing, "His na is Lin Zheng. I thought he was a good man so I let him work in the shop. Who would’ve thought that I was inviting a wolf into the house. While I was busy with work, this dog couple started an affair finished

off. Tell , shouldn’t I kill her, shouldn’t I get revenge?"

Qin Sisi looked in shock at the two snuggling figures, never expecting the kind-looking owner and the honest-looking young man to be such people.

The female owner still had a vacant look in her eyes as she nestled in Lin Zheng’s arms, her expression remained unchanged by Wang Dashan’s accusations and insults.

But Lin Zheng was apparently anxious, hurriedly saying, "Don’t listen to his nonsense, it’s not like he said at all."

Qin Sisi’s gaze flickered. Just now, Lin Zheng had stepped forward to protect Wang Juan in the mont of danger, which left a good impression on her. Besides, she wasn’t privy to what had happened before, it wasn’t fair to only listen to Wang Dashan’s side of the story.

So, Qin Sisi said to Lin Zheng, "Then you tell us what happened."

Lin Zheng held up the nearly fainting Wang Juan and said softly, "After the dumpling shop opened, Brother Dashan changed. He drank and gambled frequently and often lost money. When he didn’t have money, he would co back and ask Sister Juan for money. If she refused, he would start hitting her. That day, he ca back drunk and started demanding money from Sister Juan again. Sister Juan had just sent the only money she had back to our hotown. When she didn’t give him money, he started hitting her so severely that she had to hit him with a stool. He was already drunk and when she hit him, he lost his balance and fell. He hit his head on the edge of the window sill and that’s how..."

Qin Sisi frowned, this was a completely different version of the story. One was of a hardworking man who was cheated and hurt by his wife, the other was of a short-tempered, irresponsible man who was violent towards his wife.

Qin Sisi contemplated for a mont and then looked at Wang Dashan sharply, "Is what he said true?"
