Chapter 372: Chapter 372: Humble Companion_1

Qin Sisi turned to look back with concern, and sure enough, Jin Zhu’s face was already filled with tears, her beautiful eyes full of disbelief as she looked at Ding Jiawang.

At this mont, she began to doubt. Was he truly the destined one bestowed upon her by Buddha? Was he really the lover she had waited for over a hundred years?

Seeing Qin Sisi remain silent for a long ti, Ding Jiawang asked in confusion, "Master Qin, what do you an by asking

these questions?"

Qin Sisi pressed her lips together, vaguely replying, "It’s nothing, I’m just considering how to deal with Jin Zhu’s ghost."

Ding Jiawang frowned and said coldly, "Harmful ghosts like these should obviously be completely eradicated, their souls scattered. Otherwise, they could harm people again."

Jin Zhu felt a pain in her heart as if being cut by a knife. ’Mr. Ding, I can’t believe this is how you see ,’ she thought.

Qin Sisi knew there was no point in lingering. She told Ding Jiawang, "Alright, I understand. I’m going upstairs first, you should rest."

After saying that, Qin Sisi turned and left. Unwilling to leave, Jin Zhu would have stayed, but Ye You gripped one end of the Vajra Bundling Spirit Rope and pulled her away.

Fearing that Jin Zhu might lose control of her emotions, Ye You never loosened his hold on her.

As Qin Sisi passed by Ding Jiayuan’s room, the door suddenly opened. Ding Jiayuan, holding Da Huang, ca out. Seeing Qin Sisi, she joyfully called out, "Sis Master."

Qin Sisi nodded and asked with concern, "Still not asleep? Is Da Huang too naughty?"

Ding Jiayuan shook her head, her face showing so worry as she said to Qin Sisi, "Sis Master, is Da Huang sick? I only played with him for a while, and he fell asleep and won’t wake up no matter how much I call him.

I rember having a very energetic dog when I was little. He could play with

till late!"

Qin Sisi was taken aback. Seeing Da Huang in Ding Jiayuan’s arms with closed eyes, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Unable to explain the situation to Ding Jiayuan, Qin Sisi took Da Huang into her arms and reassured her, "He might be tired from running around with

all night. I’m sure he’ll be lively again tomorrow."

Ding Jiayuan, who had only guessed at Da Huang’s condition, believed Qin Sisi’s words and looked relieved.

After comforting Ding Jiayuan and instructing her to go to bed, Qin Sisi returned to her guest room on the third floor with Ye You and Da Huang.

Placing Da Huang gently on the ground, Qin Sisi looked at Ye You worriedly and asked in a low voice, "Is he alright?"

Ye You paused before replying, "When Chen Yan’s ghost possessed him, it might have hurt his soul, which is why he seems listless."

"What should we do?" Qin Sisi was sowhat anxious and also felt guilty. She hadn’t realized anything was wrong a few days ago, assuming Da Huang was just naturally lethargic. It seed she really wasn’t fit to keep pets.

Ye You gestured towards the crying Jin Zhu and said, "Let’s deal with that first. As for Da Huang, let

think."

Qin Sisi had no choice but to nod. She walked over to Jin Zhu and said softly, "Now, can you give up?"

Jin Zhu silently nodded, sobbing, "Maybe I really did sothing wrong. I shouldn’t have been so selfish."

Her words made Qin Sisi feel sothing was off. After pondering for a while, she bluntly said, "However, he said he would never like ghosts, so no matter what you do, he wouldn’t like you."

Jin Zhu shook her head stubbornly and said, "No, that’s not true. If I did better, maybe he would have liked ."

Qin Sisi helplessly replied, "No one can predict hypothetical situations, but you should keep your promise now."

Jin Zhu had previously agreed that as long as she could see Ding Jiawang again and ask him so questions, no matter the result, she would willingly give her Soul Power to Qin Sisi.

Seemingly reluctant, Jin Zhu pleaded with Qin Sisi, "Master, I’m willing to give you my Soul Power, but I also want to stay by Mr. Ding’s side. Can you help ? Please."

Qin Sisi was at a loss for words, "With your soul gone, how can you stay by his side?"

Had she, as a ghost for over a hundred years, sohow lost even this basic knowledge?

Jin Zhu quickly spoke, "I can be anything else. Not having a soul is okay. I can be his pillow, his curtain, his book, his tea cup... I can be anything, as long as I can stay by his side, I’ll be satisfied."

Qin Sisi was taken aback. Could this work?

She looked at Ye You in bewildernt.

Upon hearing Jin Zhu’s words, Ye You suddenly had an idea and "owed" at Qin Sisi a few tis.

Qin Sisi’s mouth opened wide in surprise, "Can we... do that?"

Ye You said in a low voice, "This is the best solution. It satisfies her wish and can also save Da Huang."

After hesitating for a while, Qin Sisi finally turned around, cleared her throat and said to a dispirited Jin Zhu, "Do you see that dog, Da Huang?"

Jin Zhu lightly nodded, "I see it."

Qin Sisi took a deep breath and said, "Ding Jiawang’s sister is very fond of this dog. She’ll probably keep it here. I can extract a part of your soul and imbue it into the dog. This way, you can stay by his side."

"I’m willing," Jin Zhu replied without hesitation.

Qin Sisi frowned, going on to explain, "But in the future, when you reincarnate, due to the deficiency of your soul, you might have health issues, a shorter lifespan, and even possibly ntal problems. In other words, you might beco a bit confused. Do you understand?"

Qin Sisi made extra effort to explain the concept of ’intelligence’ to make sure Jin Zhu understood.

There was a flash of pain in Jin Zhu’s eyes and after a mont of silence, she replied, "Then I won’t reincarnate."

Qin Sisi paused, "Are you sure?"

Jin Zhu bit her lip and said, "I’m certain, I love Mr. Ding. I only want to remain by his side, everything else is unimportant."

"Alright then," Qin Sisi concluded. It was soone else’s choice, even if she disagreed, she could only help them achieve it.

Ye You raised his paw and summoned the Spirit Conversion Bottle.

The snow-white Refining Spirit Bottle slowly rotated in the air, calling forth the willing soul.

Jin Zhu’s shape gradually blurred, turning into a wisp of white smoke flying towards the Spirit Conversion Bottle.

Ye You quickly snatched a slight wisp of this white smoke, leaving the rest to drift into the bottle’s entrance leaving no trace in an instant.

Ye You held onto that wisp of white smoke and moved it towards Da Huang’s forehead, inserting Jin Zhu’s spirit into Da Huang’s body.
