Chapter 1054 Please Bring Her Back
Helian Wei Wei was standing next to Chen Zhendong. Then, she stepped forward and cast her gaze down upon him. “May I know how remorseful are you, Mr. Chen? Given the chance, are you willing to give up your life in exchange for Lan Ya’s recovery?”“I am!” Chen Zhendong’s head shot up, with his ebony hair plastered to his face. “Is there a way to do so? I’m willing to try anything! I beg you, if she can return safely, I don’t care what happens to . I would do anything to bring her back.”
Helian Wei Wei smiled. “As long as you’re willing, Mr. Chen. As I’ve told you, I’m a Taobao shop owner, and I do business for the living and the dead. Though there was one thing that I lied to you about, Mr. Chen. Actually, Lan Ya is not dead. Without your consent, she will live for no longer than three days. Currently, her body lies in the hospital that I brought you to earlier. She’s in a deep coma with all sorts of tubes connected to her body, and requires imdiate care frequently. Her life has been salvaged by the doctors twice, but the third ti would be her demise. If Mr. Chen is willing to share your life span with her, she will be able to survive this crisis.”
“Fine.” Chen Zhendong did not even ask how much of his lifespan would be sacrificed nor how it would be done. He rely looked at Helian Wei Wei with a sullen gaze.
Helian Wei Wei looked at him and asked, “Are you sure, even if she doesn’t love you anymore? You should know well that no one could remain unfaltering after seeing you with another woman. Besides, you didn’t look for her for the past five days. The Lan family are not fools – they clearly know the reason why Lan Ya was near the hospital that day and your relationship with Xiao Ziqiu. Even if the rumors aren’t true, the Lan family will surely not allow Lan Ya to fall in love with you again. Perhaps, they will even warn her to stay away from you once she regains consciousness.”
She further elaborated, “Moreover, her older brother has always cherished her and she has many outstanding suitors waiting for her. It shouldn’t take long for her to find soone new. I’ve told you long ago that the best way to recover from an old relationship is to begin a new one. Even if you bring her back at the expense of your own life, she won’t appreciate you either. On the contrary, she might gradually forget you as you beco absent in her life. With that said, are you still willing to cut your own life span for her?”
Chen Zhendong tightened his fingers gradually and released them again, one by one. His throat hurt badly as if he was forced to swallow a blade, as he muttered, “I’m willing to.”
Even if she would end up forgetting .
Even if I have long beco a piece of trash to her.
I still want her to co back to life.
In the past, the thing that he feared most was that she would realize her feelings toward him were not love.
Now, he finally realized that the thing he feared most was her leaving him alone in this world.
They had shared too many beautiful mories together.
He could still rember when he was still a child, she had fallen off the bed in her sleep once due to poor sleeping habits. At that ti, he was playing with building blocks when he saw blood trickling down her face. Before she had even cried, he had already begun wailing.
Are all humans always like this?
We would only be honest and express our feelings when we’re young.
Once we grow up, we would beco too spoiled and lose sight of those that are most precious to us...
“If that’s the case, co after ,” Helian Wei Wei said. Then, she brought Chen Zhendong to another location.
It was not the intensive care hospital that they went to previously. The destination was at the turning of a road, where a tree had fallen at the intersection. As it was now late at night, the surrounding atmosphere seed drearier than usual.
“Do you know why people burn paper money when they mourn for the dead?” Helian Wei Wei asked as she stared at Chen Zhendong. “It’s so that the dead know where to return on the seventh day after their death.”
Chen Zhendong could not comprehend the reason behind all these rituals. He was a doctor, after all, so he did not believe in the existence of spirits.
Now, he truly believed it.
Helian Wei Wei did not intend to hide anything from him either. She explained briefly, “Under normal circumstances, the spirit of the dead would be attached strongly to its physical body. Even as it is shackled by the Ox-headed and horse-faced demons, it remains emotionally attached to its previous lifeti. Since the physical body is the only proof of their existence in their previous life, I was rather puzzled when I first encountered Lan Ya. Why was she trapped in an apartnt, and not to her physical body? It beca clear after I t you, Mr. Chen. Even if you didn’t admit it previously, I was certain that you love Lan Ya very much. If it wasn’t for your unyielding love for her, she would not be chained to your place.”
“Considering that Lan Ya’s spirit left her physical body here, I will be lighting Soul Returning Lights around here to help her soul return to her body. All you have to do is sit here and guide Lan Ya with the power of your will. You need not worry about any other interferences and just simply keep your eyes closed. However, the Soul Returning Lights shall be lit at the expense of your life span, so I would need to know your date and ti of birth. If you aren’t sure what those are, your personal identification number will do as well.”
Chen Zhendong did not try to hide anything and unhesitantly recited his personal identification number.
He had heard of this type of thod that exchanged one life for another.
He regarded those as re fairytales.
Needless to say, he could have never expected that he would have to experience it one day.
The mont the tactical formation was activated, the entire street seed to be pulled into a different dinsion.
Everything was deathly quiet.
The number of cars passing in the distance seed to gradually diminish.
Eventually, not even a single car could be seen.
Then, a dense fog suddenly shrouded the area.
Chen Zhendong began to quietly call Lan Ya’s na.
Tactical formations like this were not very safe, as it was equivalent to bringing the Path of Yin and Yang to the human world.
When the Soul Returning Light was lit, a few shadows suddenly erged. Their expressions were blank as they shuffled forward, their clothes slightly drenched. When they noticed Chen Zhendong, they started to approach him sluggishly.
Nevertheless, Helian Wei Wei was evidently unafraid of these evil spirits since she could easily generate such a tactical formation. With a smirk on her face, she lifted her prayer beads to annihilate them when...
His Highness unexpectedly took action faster than her. In a flash, he had vanished from his spot and reappeared before Helian Wei Wei. The dark figures behind him exploded like smoke bombs, as they were instantly reduced into puddles of murky water on the ground.
Baili Jia Jue simply smiled at her and pricked his silvery-white ears. Despite his exquisite elegance, he could not conceal his overpowering demonic nature.
He gazed at Helian Wei Wei and quietly chuckled. “How can I let my master soil her hands to kill these asly ghosts?”
Helian Wei Wei silently put away her praying beads. Considering that His Highness was exceptionally violent today, she decided to remain silent like a wallflower and let him vent his anger on the ghosts.
It seed that His Highness was indeed more ruthless than usual.
One of the hostile ghosts that were hiding in the area noticed the ominous situation and tried to escape, but it was also rcilessly destroyed by His Highness on a whim.
The evil spirits watching at a distance shuddered in fear and trepidation. Who in the world says that adorable creatures with little ears are easy to deal with! Co forward, I want to smash these lying crooks into a pulp!
