Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Chapter 788 - 785: Best Friends

"Xiao Yue..."

Zhang Zhonghe wiped the corner of his mouth with a sense of indescribable relief. Years of illness had tornted him to the verge of madness, stripping away his will to live.

At this mont, he felt alive again, like gulping down ice water on a scorching sumr day.

"Xiao Yue, Mom said you died. I thought she was lying to . I went to see Grandma, and she also said you died..."

The grandma Zhang Zhonghe referred to was actually Xiao Yue’s Grandma Yin. He had been used to calling her grandma since he was a child with Xiao Yue.

"Well, Aunt Wang didn’t lie to you; I’m a ghost now," Xiao Yue said with a mischievous tone.

But Zhang Zhonghe wasn’t scared. Instead, he touched himself curiously and asked, "Am I dead too?"

However, the touch and warmth from his palm didn’t feel like death, so he asked with so confusion, "Why does it feel just like being alive?"

"You’re so silly. I never said you were dead. You’re still alive, so of course, it feels like being alive," Xiao Yue replied.

"Huh? Then why can I see you?" Zhang Zhonghe asked in surprise.

"Aren’t you scared?" Xiao Yue asked curiously.

"Why should I be scared?"

Zhang Zhonghe looked puzzled. Seeing his genuine expression, Xiao Yue couldn’t help but smile.

"Why are you smiling? You haven’t answered my question yet," Zhang Zhonghe said.

"Because I wanted you to see , so you naturally can," Xiao Yue said, turning to look around her, realizing that Shen Siyuan and Dou Dou had left at so point.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhonghe didn’t feel happy. Instead, he got angry and shouted, "Then why didn’t you let see you sooner? You... you know... I..."

Though angry, he still didn’t have the courage to finish his sentence.

"I’m already dead. What good does it do for you to see ?" Xiao Yue said.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhonghe was very upset, "Then why are you letting see you now?"

"Because you’re going to die, and I don’t want you to," Xiao Yue said.

Zhang Zhonghe fell silent. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he already understood a lot, naturally grasping Xiao Yue’s aning.

"Thank you for saving . Actually... actually, you didn’t have to. If I died, I’d beco a ghost like you, and then I could play with you."

"But I don’t want Uncle Zhang and Aunt Wang to be sad," Xiao Yue said.

Zhang Zhonghe glanced at his father sleeping on the folding bed and whispered, "Sleeping so soundly, and he said he would take care of ."

"It’s not just Uncle Zhang; others can’t wake up right now either," Xiao Yue pointed to the nearby hospital bed.

Instantly, Zhang Zhonghe tensed up, "My dad will be okay, right?"

"Of course, he’s just in a deep sleep. Also, I must leave now. You need good rest. Your body is just getting better. Have Aunt Wang make you so delicious food, and you’ll be healthy in no ti..." Xiao Yue said.

"Don’t go, don’t go! I... I still have so much to say to you..." Zhang Zhonghe said urgently.

Xiao Yue didn’t reply, just stood by watching him with an indifferent expression.

But Zhang Zhonghe didn’t mind at all; he knew Xiao Yue too well—she was waiting for him to speak.

He pondered, opened his mouth several tis, his cheeks blushing, but he couldn’t say anything.

Xiao Yue seed to lose patience and turned to leave.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhonghe hurriedly said, "I miss you, I really, really miss you..."

As soon as he said this, the tension seed to release, and even speaking beca easier.

"I asked my mom to bring to find you, but she wouldn’t let disturb your life..."

"Xiao Yue, why did you commit suicide? Were you suffering from so grievance..."

"Is it because your mom and stepdad were an to you..."

"Did you know, when I found out you died, I was so sad. I had a big fight with my mom because she wouldn’t let see you..."

"After I got sick, we spent so much money on treatnt. Honestly, I’ve long stopped wanting treatnt. I’m not afraid of dying because then I could go find you..."

"Xiao Yue, tell , was soone bullying you? Once I fully recover, I’ll avenge you..."

...

Zhang Zhonghe spoke chaotically but his words were filled with concern and longing for Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue listened quietly, and her once tense expression gradually softened, a faint smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.

It turns out in this world, besides Grandma, there is soone who rembers her. Being rembered is truly a beautiful thing.

"Wow~, big brother and Sister Xiao Yue, are they best friends?"

Dou Dou, riding on Shen Siyuan’s shoulders, couldn’t help but remark.

It turns out they hadn’t left at all. They were hiding and eavesdropping. Shen Siyuan used the Primordial Magnetic Divine Sword to interfere with the surrounding magnetic field, and even Xiao Yue didn’t notice them.

But once Dou Dou spoke, Xiao Yue noticed them imdiately and looked in their direction.

Xiao Yue’s face turned crimson with a mix of embarrassnt and irritation.

At this mont, Dou Dou added, "Big brother, do you like Sister Xiao Yue? Is Sister Xiao Yue going to be your wife?"

Xiao Yue’s face reddened even more, like a boiling kettle, almost steaming.

"Shut up, will you."

Shen Siyuan quickly took Dou Dou out of the ward.

"Huh, am I not supposed to watch anymore? I wanted to keep watching," Dou Dou said in surprise.

"I think you’re in for a good spank today."

"Why?" Dou Dou asked, puzzled.

"I did a great thing, and Sister Xiao Yue even thanked . Why would she spank ?" Dou Dou said confidently.

"If you say so."

anwhile, inside the ward, Xiao Yue used telepathy to confirm that the two had indeed left and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She hadn’t anticipated this situation, but who would have thought they were eavesdropping nearby.

Thinking about Shen Siyuan’s unreliable appearance, Xiao Yue couldn’t help but laugh.

"Xiao Yue, what’s wrong?" Zhang Zhonghe asked, confused.

"Nothing, Zhang Zhonghe."

"What’s up?"

"Thank you."

"For what?" Zhang Zhonghe asked, perplexed.

"Thank you for rembering , for not forgetting ," Xiao Yue said earnestly.

"What’s there to thank? You’re... you’re my best friend, you know. I’ll never forget you, always keep you in my heart," Zhang Zhonghe replied seriously.

"Tha..."

Xiao Yue wanted to say thank you again, but the words got stuck in her throat and went unspoken.

"I’ll always rember you, and also, tell your parents... Actually, don’t tell them about . It’s our secret," Xiao Yue said.

"Okay, but my mom and dad miss you a lot, especially my mom. She was sad for a long ti after knowing you passed away," Zhang Zhonghe said.

Xiao Yue hesitated but eventually shook her head, "Since Aunt Wang was sad once, let’s not make her sad a second ti. I’m leaving."

"Where are you going? How... how will I find you later?" Zhang Zhonghe asked hastily.

"Naturally, I’m going where I need to be. There’s no need for you to look for ; you won’t find ," Xiao Yue said.

Hearing this, Zhang Zhonghe showed a sorrowful expression, tears brimming in his eyes.

"Then... will I ever see you again?"

Seeing Zhang Zhonghe on the verge of tears, Xiao Yue couldn’t bear it and finally nodded.

Zhang Zhonghe, upon hearing this, broke into a smile.

"You have to promise you’ll co see , promise."

Zhang Zhonghe extended his pinky finger.

"So childish," Xiao Yue said, but still reached her hand over.
