Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 106: Aftermath Effects

Shen Siyuan didn’t find out until the next day that last night’s incident had caused quite a stir.

Firefighters, police, journalists, and so people of unknown identity all showed up—there were those who wandered around with instrunts, those who went door-to-door asking questions, and those who just ca to gawk...

Now with the proliferation of social dia, all sorts of short videos were flying around, shooting up to the top of the trending search results. So people even planned to get a dical checkup to see if they had any hidden health issues. The whole community was in an uproar.

When Shen Siyuan stepped out the door and saw this scene, he too was dumbstruck. He had spent the entire night at ho trying hard to control the Primordial Magnetic within his body, utterly unaware that the situation had escalated to this extent.

After pushing through the crowd, Shen Siyuan then rembered that on Friday, because of a dinner, he left his bike at the company and didn’t ride it back. Just then, he heard so cursing nearby about electric scooters breaking down and not starting, which made Shen Siyuan secretly relieved—he had dodged a bullet.

Then he inwardly muttered an apology and quickly turned to make an escape.

"Mr. Shen..."

"Shen Siyuan."

Shen Siyuan hadn’t even reached the community gate when he heard soone calling him from behind. Turning around, he saw it was Tao Guangsha and his wife.

It was Tao Guangsha who called him Mr. Shen, while Jiang Wenxin used his given na—after all, it would be too strange to address him formally as Mr. Shen when they saw each other so frequently at the company.

"Why are you here?" Shen Siyuan asked in surprise.

"We heard sothing happened in your community and ca over early in the morning," Jiang Wenxin said.

"It’s nothing major, you don’t have to co over just for this," Shen Siyuan said.

Upon hearing this, sothing clicked in Tao Guangsha’s mind. They already knew the ins and outs of what had happened in the community. Last night, all electronic devices were damaged at the sa ti, allegedly due to a magnetic disturbance. As for the source of the disturbance, it was still unknown, pending expert explanation.

But why did it happen in the very community where Shen Siyuan lived? Why was everyone else either angry, curious, or resigned to their misfortune, while Shen Siyuan seed so nonchalant...

All these things inevitably led Tao Guangsha to think more deeply.

So Tao Guangsha hurriedly said: "Mr. Shen, we didn’t co to add to the commotion. We ca to see if we could be of any help."

"Help? What kind of help?"

"Everything in Mr. Shen’s house must be broken, in need of repair? Although I run a catering business, I also have a repair team below..."

This indeed was a reason Shen Siyuan found difficult to refuse.

He could easily replace the lights and electrical appliances at ho, but so of the wiring would definitely require a professional to co and inspect.

"Wouldn’t that be too much trouble for you?"

"Not at all, not at all. My repair team is idle on regular days anyway; giving them sothing to do would be perfect," Tao Guangsha said.

Hearing this, Shen Siyuan didn’t refuse any further and handed over the keys to him.

"Please arrange for soone to go check my house."

"Don’t worry, leave the rest to ," Tao Guangsha assured, patting his chest.

"Actually, it should be the landlord who arranges for the repairs. He should be coming over today, but my cell phone is also wrecked, so I can’t contact him at the mont. You can tell him when you see him," Shen Siyuan said.

"Why don’t you use my phone first?"

Hearing this, Tao Guangsha imdiately took out his own phone.

But Shen Siyuan simply waved his hand.

"Never mind, I don’t have anything important to do anyway. I’ll buy another one at noon."

Upon hearing this, Tao Guangsha no longer insisted and turned to Jiang Wenxin: "Wife, aren’t you also going to the company? You drive the car, you can go together."

Jiang Wenxin caught on and quickly nodded her head.

Shen Siyuan could see that their visit early this morning was probably not just to lend a hand, so he stopped refusing.

Indeed, once they were in the car, Jiang Wenxin began discussing Dou Dou.

Between the lines, she alluded to Dou Dou being young and sowhat ignorant and mischievous, asking Shen Siyuan to be patient and not to get angry with Dou Dou.

However, she didn’t say that Dou Dou was stupid, which was a mother’s final stand of defiance.

But Shen Siyuan found her words sowhat baffling.

So he directly asked with surprise: "Did sothing happen? Why are you suddenly saying all this?"

Jiang Wenxin, who was driving, glanced at Shen Siyuan sitting in the passenger seat. Once she was sure he was not aware of the situation, she told him everything that happened last night, in full detail.

Shen Siyuan couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the sa ti, "You all ca early in the morning just for this minor matter?"

"Did we overreact a bit?" Jiang Wenxin said with a sowhat embarrassed expression.

Shen Siyuan nodded and said: "Indeed it is so. It’s just a small squabble among the children, no need to make a big deal out of it. Xiao Yue is also a sensible child and will not bully Dou Dou. Moreover, Dou Dou is actually quite well-behaved. Although sotis mischievous, I don’t think that it’s wrong, so both of you as parents really don’t need to worry."

"Once Dou Dou learns to control Netherworld Fire, you will be able to see her often, although it can’t be exactly like when she was alive. But talking and communicating with her will be completely fine."

Jiang Wenxin also sighed in relief and kept thanking Shen Siyuan.

"Alright, you don’t have to keep saying that. Today, Dou Dou’s dad helped fix the house, and I haven’t thanked him yet."

Shen Siyuan can imagine that when Tao Guangsha helped with the repair, he would surely replace all the damaged appliances in the house and also wouldn’t take a penny from Shen Siyuan.

If it were a common family, Shen Siyuan would definitely refuse, but for Tao Guangsha, such money is a re drop in the bucket for them, and it has no impact on their living. Thus, if that was the case, let him be. One wanted convenience, the other wanted peace of mind; a perfect match.

"You don’t have children yet, you wouldn’t understand. Once you have them, you’ll know. Children are the apple of their parents’ eyes. Fearing they’ll fall, go hungry, be thirsty, be bullied by others outside... As soon as they’re out of sight, parents will worry and feel anxious..."

Jiang Wenxin said this and tears began to fall.

"Don’t cry, when you get to the office, if your colleagues see you like this, they might think I did sothing to you, and who knows how they’ll start talking," Shen Siyuan said, sowhat helplessly.

Jiang Wenxin gave a small laugh, wiped away her tears, and said: "I’m not afraid of these things, what are you afraid of? As long as my husband knows we’re innocent, that’s enough."

That sounded a bit weird.

Not wanting to continue on this subject, she then said: "I haven’t had breakfast yet. See if there’s a place selling breakfast up ahead, drop off there, and I’ll buy sothing to eat."

"I haven’t eaten either, we can have it together."

Just as Shen Siyuan was about to speak, he heard Jiang Wenxin say: "Your phone is broken, do you have money to pay?"

Alright, Shen Siyuan had not thought of that, so he and Jiang Wenxin found a breakfast shop at the roadside and had breakfast together, naturally, she paid for it.

Upon arriving at the office, Shen Siyuan got out of the car first, while Jiang Wenxin went to find a parking space. Thinking this would not attract much attention, he didn’t expect that they would still be noticed by Zhou Chuan, who had just arrived for work.

He widened his eyes, showing a face of disbelief.

"Looking all honest with your bushy eyebrows and big eyes, you’ve also started down this path?"
