Miss Jia simply couldn’t believe that she had truly died, and for several hundred years at that, now existing only as a hollow, wandering ghost here.
Suddenly, she understood why her days felt so monotonously similar—this was the reason.
"It’s a long story. I can co here, but you can’t co to where I am."
"Then why did Young Master Ye seek out and tell these things?"
Miss Jia asked, puzzled.
Perhaps afraid of being overheard by others, Ye Qiu pulled Miss Jia away, going far into the distance.
In fact, pulling her along felt like holding onto a piece of paper, weightless, which explained why she moved silently—this was exactly how it felt.
Standing there, Ye Qiu said, "You might say this place is the Ghost Market, or it’s underground. Above us is where the living reside, but because of the presence of ghosts like you, people can never live up there."
As they say, the human world and the ghost world are two separate realms, inherently incompatible.
The world of the Ghost Market and the human world above are exactly the sa now.
Miss Jia still seed a bit confused.
"There are many living people now, and you should have reincarnated long ago, but you haven’t, and it’s still due to the geography here."
"Young Master Ye, what do you an?"
"I hope you can tell the other ghosts that they’ve all actually died, many years ago—only, they just don’t know it."
"So you want us to reincarnate?"
"Exactly, as reincarnation is where you should head towards,"
Ye Qiu explained.
At this mont, Miss Jia understood.
Indeed, she found it strange to have lived in this neither human nor ghost world for so many years; it had long been tireso, like rely existing as a copy of herself.
"But I’m scared."
Miss Jia said.
"Afraid of dying? Or afraid of sothing else? You all have died once already, and now you’re just lingering souls with so leftovers of mories from before your death, unlike many ghosts who have no mories at all."
Miss Jia did rember her death.
But now, existing as a wandering ghost, she really didn’t know what would co next.
If she hadn’t t Ye Qiu, she might have remained like this for an eternity.
"Miss Jia, let’s leave it at that for today." As dawn approached, Ye Qiu knew that Miss Jia and these ghosts needed to rest.
When returning to the brothel with Miss Jia, Ye Qiu said, "I’ll leave the Royal Mansion to you. Think about it over the next few days, and I’ll co to see you in seven days."
Ye Qiu wanted to say a week later, but Miss Jia wouldn’t understand what a week ant.
"The Royal Mansion?"
Miss Jia couldn’t believe it.
Leaving those two servants with Miss Jia, Ye Qiu walked along the street.
He held no particular feelings for these ghosts; their disappearance ant nothing to him.
Soon after, the crowing of a rooster could be heard.
Ye Qiu stood still, feeling the world before him gradually fade away, like a movie screen until finally, he found himself inside the abandoned building.
Looking around now, there was no Ghost Market, no ghosts at all.
His car was still there.
Ye Qiu walked over, got into the car, and drove away.
Ye Qiu had to return to take a shower, eat breakfast, and head back to school with Lin Xiang.
Driving back to the Peach Blossom Source Villa Community, Ye Weidong and his wife were surprised to see Ye Qiu return and wondered where he had gone the previous night.
"Ye Qiu, didn’t you say you went to a friend’s house for dinner last night?"
"Yes, Mom."
"What kind of al haven’t you had before?"
"Whatever it was, it was quite delicious."
After Ye Qiu went upstairs to take a shower and ca back down to eat breakfast, he and Lin Xiang headed over to Jin University Campus.
After dropping Lin Xiang off at Jin University, Lin Xiang went to her classroom for her class, and Ye Qiu headed to a small classroom to attend a lecture on clinical dicine theory, where he stayed for two sessions.
After leaving the classroom, Ye Qiu decided to skip the third and fourth lectures.
When he was preparing to head to the gaming company alone, he suddenly saw Su Luoluo.
Su Luoluo also saw Ye Qiu.
Su Luoluo had thought Ye Qiu would leave directly.
Unexpectedly, it seed like he was waiting there for her.
As Su Luoluo walked over with Bai Yun and Hai Dong, she looked at Ye Qiu and said, "Ye Qiu, I still haven’t thanked you for curing my grandfather’s illness last ti."
In fact, it was Su Luoluo’s grandfather, Old Master Su, who wanted to personally thank Ye Qiu, but he never returned after his previous visit.
"Thank for what?"
"My grandfather wishes to invite you to our ho for dinner."
"Dinner? I’ll pass. But there’s sothing I can tell you."
Sothing?
Su Luoluo was puzzled.
Ye Qiu rely glanced at her and when he was about to leave, Su Luoluo followed while Bai Yun and Hai Dong stayed where they were.
"What is it?"
Su Luoluo asked curiously.
Was it a matter of feelings between herself and Ye Qiu?
"The issue with the Su Group’s abandoned building plot—I’ll solve it for your dad in a week."
The abandoned building issue?
Resolved in a week?
How was that possible?
Su Luoluo couldn’t believe it.
But looking at Ye Qiu’s expression, it didn’t seem like he was lying.
"Are you serious?" For this matter, Su Luoluo knew her father had been extrely worried, and he seed more haggard lately.
That land cost a lot of money to acquire, but it couldn’t be developed or abandoned.
The blow to the Su Group was enormous, as one might imagine.
Her grandfather too, after personally leading a team to inspect the area, had an incident upon returning.
"There’s one more thing. I suggest your father imdiately purchase all the land around the abandoned building while it’s cheap. Once I solve those issues, the surrounding land prices will skyrocket."
"Are you serious?" Su Luoluo still couldn’t believe it and asked.
Ye Qiu did not respond to Su Luoluo’s question.
But if Ye Qiu truly wanted to make money from this, it would be quite easy.
"If your father doesn’t want to, then I’ll have soone else buy it up." Ye Qiu was naturally referring to his Jiangbei Group, as there was plenty of money available.
"I understand."
Su Luoluo still wanted to say sothing, but Ye Qiu was preparing to leave.
However, watching him, she said, "This matter, you can only tell your father, no one else."
After all, it involved trade secrets worth billions.
Yet, Su Luoluo didn’t understand why Ye Qiu was so good to her and the Su Family.
After seeing Ye Qiu depart, Bai Yun and Hai Dong hurried over to ask, "Luoluo, what did Ye Qiu say to you? Did he want to get back together with you?"
"What are you thinking? He didn’t ntion anything about our feelings, but I suddenly realized that I was really unfair to him in the past."
