Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 163: Returning Home

Shen Siyuan did not take this minor episode to heart and continued to march forward, step by step, with his feet firmly on the ground.

He was completely unaware of the changes in his own ntality.

There’s a saying that possession of a powerful weapon inevitably gives rise to a heart filled with thoughts of aggression, and there’s so truth in that.

If this were in the past, although Shen Siyuan would have gotten angry and argued with the other party, he certainly would not have dared to easily cripple soone, and think nothing of it afterward.

It’s like the difference between a man with money in his pocket and one without.

Money is a man’s confidence, and strength is Shen Siyuan’s confidence, bringing about an unconscious shift in his mindset.

Following the minor episode, until Shen Siyuan got off the ring road, there were no more incidents.

However, he did co across several drivers along the way who wanted to give him a lift, all genuine good-hearted people.

After getting off the ring road, it was past three in the afternoon. Shen Siyuan picked up his pace and finally reached Linjiapo as the sun was about to set.

Looking at the village under the setting sun with smoke curling up from the cooking, Shen Siyuan stepped out of his tranquil state of mind and took out shoes and a phone from his space.

Walking barefoot, his feet remained unstained with dust, which was thanks to the protective layer of Earth Elent Qi added to his feet, shielding them from the dust and dirt of the journey.

He put on his shoes, turned on the phone, and saw that Ruan Hongzhuang had sent him quite a number of ssages despite being told beforehand.

Shen Siyuan unlocked his phone and looked at them.

"I’m awake."

"Where are you now?"

"Hmph, said you would ignore , you really ignore , huh?"

"The milk in the fridge expired, I threw it out for you, almost drank it myself."

"Hehe~, look what I found, you’re so shivery. (Magazine picture.jpg)"

"In the future, you won’t need to look at these, I’ll wear them for you to see. (Shy.jpg)"

"I’m leaving now."

"I’m ho."

"Pighead, still not talking to ."

...

"Have you reached ho?"

"Didn’t get caught by a siren on the road, did you?"

"If you ignore again, I’ll get mad."

"I’m really getting mad."

"Last chance for you."

...

"What’s your hotown like, can I go back with you next ti?"

"Ah, dear, reply quickly, I’m getting anxious if you don’t..."

"Punch you.gif"

"Kick you.gif"

"Blast you.gif"

...

The rest were all fierce emojis, but upon seeing them, Si Yuan couldn’t help but curve the corners of his mouth upwards.

So he imdiately snapped a photo of the village and sent it over.

"Just arrived at the entrance of the village, replying to your texts now."

Ruan Hongzhuang replied instantly as if she was always there in the phone.

"That’s great, you don’t know how worried I was."

"What is there to worry about? Could I encounter any accidents?"

Shen Siyuan said this aloud but couldn’t help thinking about the two drivers who had forcefully tried to pick up passengers; if not for his strength, things could have indeed beco troubleso.

"I’m not worried about that," Ruan Hongzhuang said.

She didn’t say what she was concerned about, but Shen Siyuan had a vague idea.

After all, he had been in love before. He knew all too well the gains and losses at the beginning of a romance, probably because he had not replied to her ssages, making her feel sowhat insecure.

"Alright, stop overthinking, I’m almost ho, no more chatting for now."

"Okay then."

Clearly, although Shen Siyuan only sent back a few brief ssages, it made Ruan Hongzhuang feel imnsely reassured and her spirits lifted once again.

When Shen Siyuan arrived at the entrance of his house, he saw the yard gate was tightly closed, bolted from the inside, which ant soone was at ho.

So, he kicked the big iron gate with his foot.

"Mom... Mom..."

In a mont, he could hear his mother Huang Huijuan’s voice coming from inside the yard.

"Stop shouting, you rascal! Why are you suddenly back? Didn’t you get fired from the company?" While saying this, Huang Huijuan helped to open the iron gate.

Not waiting for her to fully open it, Shen Siyuan squeezed through the crack in the door.

"Can’t you hope for sothing good for ?"

"Then why are you suddenly back today? It’s only Wednesday. Aren’t you supposed to be working?" Huang Huijuan asked in surprise.

"I just missed you and decided to take leave to co and see you. Is that not allowed?" Shen Siyuan said.

Huang Huijuan rolled her eyes at him, not believing a word, and turned to walk inside the house.

Today, she was wearing a blue, sleeveless maxi dress, her hair neatly combed, and she was holding a half-eaten apple, not seeming to be preparing dinner.

"Mom, aren’t you cooking dinner? I’m hungry."

"Your dad said he would cook when he gets back. I was waiting for him. Now that you’re back, you can do it. I’m hungry too, the apple isn’t filling," Huang Huijuan said.

Upon entering the house, Huang Huijuan went straight to the sofa, picked up a book from the side, and started munching on the apple while reading, completely ignoring Shen Siyuan.

Shen Siyuan: ...

Having such a mother, Shen Siyuan felt helpless; but then again, Huang Huijuan was fortunate to always be pampered by his father.

Therefore, Shen Siyuan, who had just arrived ho, could only head to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

When he reached the kitchen, he found that the vegetables were all washed and placed to the side. It seed his mother wasn’t completely idle after all.

Ribs, chicken, fish, along with so vegetables.

Wait, there were only the two of them at ho, was dinner always this lavish?

Shen Siyuan muttered to himself, yet his movents were quick and busy as he started to cook.

After Shen Siyuan had prepared about two dishes, he heard noises from the yard accompanied by the sound of a motorcycle, which must have been his father Shen Jianjun coming back.

Shen Siyuan had good hearing, so even from inside the kitchen, he could hear his father and mother talking quietly.

His mother said, "The kid suddenly ca back, did he run into so trouble outside?"

His father was obviously surprised as well, "Coming back at this ti? I’ll ask him later."

"He wasn’t fired, was he?"

"If he was fired that would be great. With the asly salary he makes, he might as well co back and raise chickens with ."

"I think he must need money. Ask him later."

"That shouldn’t be the case. If he needed money, couldn’t he have just told us on WeChat? No need to run all the way back here."

"What if it’s a lot of money he needs?"

"Ah? You’re right. Is he wanting money to buy a car, or is he planning to buy a house?"

"Also, I feel like our son’s return this ti is a bit different from before."

"Different? How is it different?"

"I can’t quite put my finger on it, but you’ll know when you see him."

Shen Siyuan didn’t expect that his simple return ho would cause his parents to speculate so much.

Soon, his father Shen Jianjun walked into the kitchen and upon seeing Shen Siyuan busy cooking, he asked, "Need help?"

"No need, it’ll be ready soon," Shen Siyuan replied, turning his head.

And Shen Jianjun understood why his wife felt their son was different this ti.

There wasn’t much change in his son’s appearance since their last eting, but the feeling he gave off was entirely different.

He was full of life, as if he had been transford.

"Has he been reborn?"

Such a curious thought crossed his mind.
