Taozi’s phone call was very brief; she just said a few words and then hung up with a puzzled expression.

"What did Xiao Shen say?" The couple saw her expression and quickly asked.

Taozi didn’t answer the question but instead glanced around their living room and then softly called out.

"Dou Dou."

Then a chubby arm stretched out from behind Taozi’s chair.

"I’m here."

Jiang Hongtu and his wife were startled, and Qi Huilan clutched Jiang Hongtu’s arm tightly, leaning against him.

"It’s Dou Dou, our own family, don’t be afraid," Jiang Hongtu comforted her as he held her hand.

He said the words, but his voice trembled a bit, clearly less composed than he had claid to be.

Taozi was naturally unafraid and turned around to grab her arm, lifting her up.

Only now did Jiang Hongtu and his wife see the full picture. Who else could it be but their Dou Dou? Those eyes, that nose, that adorable little face, looked exactly the sa as before, unchanged.

Unchanged? Thinking of this, the couple’s hearts skipped a beat. Dou Dou has been deceased for more than two years, and not a single change in over two years. That’s very unusual; children grow and change every day.

"Why were you hiding behind the chair?"

Taozi held her in her arms and asked face to face.

"Hehe, I was secretly listening to you talk," Dou Dou said proudly.

Then she twisted her body and waved at Jiang Hongtu and Qi Huilan, who were facing away from her.

"Hey, Uncle, Auntie, aren’t you happy to see ?"

Taozi laughed and slapped her on the bottom twice.

"You shouldn’t ask if people are happy to see you; you should say you’re happy to see them."

"Don’t be so formal; we’re all family. Don’t say such chilly words."

"Ha ha" Jiang Hongtu and his wife couldn’t help but burst into laughter, as the slight fear they had just felt was completely gone.

What is there to be afraid of with such a lovely little ghost?

"Co here, let Auntie hug you," Qi Huilan said, spreading her arms.

"Okay."

No sooner had Dou Dou spoken than she vanished before them, leaving Taozi holding an empty space.

Just as they were stunned, Dou Dou reappeared on Qi Huilan’s lap.

"See, I’m amazing, right?" she asked Qi Huilan proudly.

"Ama...amazing..." Qi Huilan stamred, finally coming to her senses.

She reached out to touch her cheek, soft and tender, feeling so real, and then reached out to hug her, only to find she was light as a feather, completely weightless.

"Why are you so light?" Qi Huilan asked instinctively.

"Because I died; I’m a ghost," Dou Dou said, sticking out her tongue and flipping her eyes, making a funny face.

Too bad it wasn’t scary at all; instead, she was adorably cute.

"You little darling, Auntie missed you so much."

Qi Huilan felt her eyes moisten and hugged her tightly, completely unafraid now.

"I missed you too, Auntie, but Potato won’t let see you. He’s a big anie. You should help teach him a lesson."

Dou Dou said, pouting and putting her hands on her hips with an air of defiance, making Qi Huilan’s heart lt.

"Who is Potato, daring to bully our Dou Dou? Auntie will stick up for you and give him a good lesson," Qi Huilan said.

"What lesson? The Potato she’s talking about is Si Yuan. Si Yuan doesn’t let her appear in front of familiar people because it’s too complicated to explain and might scare others," Taozi explained helplessly from the side.

"Why does she call him Potato?"

"How should I know? She should be calling him Brother Potato."

"Potato is Potato! He’s really powerful. Oh, Auntie might not be able to beat him. Auntie is so an, helping him instead of . Auntie, you should spank her bottom..."

"Haha... okay, Auntie will stand up for our Dou Dou."

This little thing is just too adorable, making Qi Huilan unable to stop smiling.

Beside her, Jiang Hongtu held Dou Dou’s little hand, touching and squeezing it, feeling no different from a living person, so much so that he began to wonder if Dou Dou hadn’t passed away, but had been hidden by Tao Guangsha and his wife.

"Have you been here for a while?"

At this point, Qi Huilan has already guessed that Dou Dou should have been here for a while, which is why Taozi reacted that way.

"Wow, Auntie, you’re so smart! You guessed it right. It’s Potato who wouldn’t let out, not not wanting to co out." Dou Dou said and glanced sideways at Taozi.

"Hmph, why did you follow ? I didn’t invite you."

"Hehehe... I missed Auntie, and I ca to see her. What’s it to you?" Dou Dou said, hugging Qi Huilan’s neck.

Qi Huilan couldn’t help but cherish her, hugging and kissing her.

"Auntie will get you so treats. Auntie has your favorite orange-flavored chocolate at ho, just for you, not for your little aunt."

Upon hearing this, Dou Dou let out a long sigh.

"What’s good about sighing?"

Jiang Hongtu reached out to take her from Qi Huilan’s arms; he’d wanted to hold her for a long ti.

A soft and cute little princess, who wouldn’t like her? And seeing Dou Dou, he felt like he’d seen a young Taozi again. Taozi was just like Dou Dou now, soft and cute, speaking in a sweet voice, lting people’s hearts.

But just as he got her in his arms, he felt the lightness of the little one and was montarily stunned.

Then, the little one said, "Because I’m a ghost, ghosts can’t eat," Dou Dou said, reaching out to touch Jiang Hongtu’s stubble, feeling the prickly sensation and hurriedly pulling her hand back.

Jiang Hongtu felt a pang at heart; what a good child, how did the accident happen?

The more Dou Dou was like Taozi, the stronger the feeling of empathy he felt, and thinking that if Taozi encountered an accident at such a young age, he couldn’t imagine if he would lose his mind or have the courage to live on.

But he was, after all, an adult and could control his emotions well, not showing it.

And he put on a smile, casually changing the subject, "Your little aunt says you’re very skilled now, learned a lot. Would you show Uncle your talents?"

As soon as he said this, Dou Dou imdiately perked up.

"I can fly!"

Saying this, she transford into a Yin Wind in Jiang Hongtu’s arms, swirling around and landing in the center of the living room, then materializing.

"Amazing, right?" Dou Dou stood with her hands on her hips, tilting her head, looking very proud.

"Amazing, amazing..." The couple clapped in unison.

"I have sothing even more amazing; I can also... breathe fire..."

Dou Dou opened her mouth wide and made a sound toward the sky; a jet of eerie blue fla erupted, frightening the couple.

"Why is it blue?" Qi Huilan exclaid.

"Be careful, don’t set the house on fire," Jiang Hongtu hurriedly added.

"No need to worry; this is Netherworld Fire; it only harms ghosts and won’t burn real things," Taozi explained calmly.

At this mont, Dou Dou was engulfed in flas; the fire was surging over her body, making her look like the mythical Red Boy or animated Nezha.

The flas seed to have a life of their own, dancing happily around her, as if they were celebrating.

Seeing this, Taozi suddenly thought of an animated movie called ’Moana,’ where Maui’s tattoos seed alive. Was Dou Dou’s inspiration from this?

"Does she have red in her fire too? Is that Netherworld Fire as well?" Qi Huilan asked cautiously.

Taozi shook her head, indicating she was unsure too.

Fortunately, Dou Dou had already retracted the flas around her, preparing to perform her most proud trick, the fire-breathing from her bottom.
