Chapter 30 A Gift from the Female Ghost Su Qian
After finishing Zhao Ying's birthday cake, Xu Qingling and Sasha left first.

When Xu Qingling returned to the grocery store, she suddenly saw that the house next door was for rent and that her neighbors, Uncle Wu and his wife, were moving in.

"Qingling's back! Oh, you look so beautiful in your new dress!" Aunt Wu is a warm and kind person, and we've been neighbors for a long time, so we get along very well.

When Aunt Wu saw Xu Qingling, she greeted her with a smile.

"Hello, Aunt Wu." Xu Qingling stopped and greeted her, her voice still cool and aloof.

"Hey, a young girl should wear more brightly colored clothes to look more energetic." Otherwise, like Xu Qingling before, wearing only black clothes all year round is really too monotonous and too dull.

Xu Qingling wasn't picky about the color of her clothes, but this dress could regulate her temperature and made her feel warm, which made her like it more and more as she wore it.

"Are your aunt and uncle moving?" Xu Qingling asked.

"Yes, your brother Wu Ting and his wife have been urging us to come and live in Jinshi. They've said it many times, and we couldn't refuse them, so we decided to go so we can help take care of our grandchildren."

"So, now that we're not living in this house anymore, we're planning to rent it out so we can earn a little more income each year."

Xu Qingling understood; so that's how it is.

Just then, Uncle Wu's phone rang.

"Hey, you're looking to rent a place, right? Coming over tomorrow? Sure."

"By the way, what's your surname? Oh, it's Dr. Fan! You want to rent our house? Sure, absolutely!"

Xu Qingling didn't hear what was said after that, because she had already entered the general store.

Xu Qingling wasn't very interested in who her neighbors were; she was a homebody and not good at socializing.

As long as the new neighbor can get along with her peacefully and harmoniously, that's fine.

As soon as Xu Qingling entered the general store, she saw tiny green figures running around on the ground.

If you look closely, it's a miniature version of a little boy, only the size of a thumb, wearing a grass skirt made of leaves, and holding a miniature broom in his hand.

He was running around, shoveling and groaning as he cleaned.

In an instant, the ground was as clean as new.

Seeing Xu Qingling return, he gave her a shy smile, nodded, and then continued cleaning.

Xu Qingling nodded, her gaze falling on a green potted plant that was basking in the sunlight by the door.

This is a sweeping plant that Xu Qingling bought from the ghost market. The mini little boy just now was the sweeping sprite.

The sweeping sprites can't speak; their existence seems to revolve around cleaning, which brings them joy.

They don't need to eat; all they need is for the potted plants that nurtured them to get some sunlight and water.

They also have long lifespans; a single sweeping sprite can live for up to a hundred years.

Xu Qingling stopped paying attention and continued working. She reviewed several more ghosts. While helping Su Qian fulfill her wish, several other ghosts also returned to the human world after their leave requests were approved. Now, they have gradually fulfilled their wishes and gone to be reincarnated.

In the evening, as she was about to leave work, a system message popped up on her computer.

Xu Qingling clicked to open.

[Congratulations, Director! You have received a gift from the female ghost Su Qian—an extraordinary talent for drawing. You may choose to use this gift yourself or pass it on to someone else…]

"Wow, is this a gift from Sister Qianqian to my older sister?" Sasha also looked on with wide, curious eyes.

After taking a closer look, Xu Qingling finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that for every ghost with a lingering obsession whose wish is fulfilled and whose obsession is resolved, there is a chance to receive a gift from them. Of course, not every ghost will give a gift; the gift must be something the ghost gives willingly and with gratitude, and it must be a skill that the ghost already possesses.

Xu Qingling thought for a moment. In the few days since she took office, she had reviewed and helped many ghosts fulfill their wishes.

So far, only Su Qian has given a gift.

Xu Qingling didn't feel it was too little, nor did she have any absolute dissatisfaction.

This was a pleasant surprise.

but……

Xu Qingling turned to look at Sasha, "Sasha, do you like drawing?"

Sasha blinked her beautiful, large eyes, which were a vibrant purple – the colored contact lenses she'd been obsessed with for the past couple of days. Her eyes lit up, and she nodded, "I love them!"

Sasha was amazed when she saw Su Qian and Zhao Ying painting, but unfortunately she didn't have that talent.

"Then you can have this skill," Xu Qingling said.

Xu Qingling has little interest in many things, including painting, so it's better to give it to Sasha, who likes to paint.

"Yay, thank you, sister."

Right after Xu Qingling wrote Sasha's name in the gift box on the computer backend.

The extraordinary drawing skills that Su Qian had bestowed upon her on the computer transformed into a stream of light, flew onto Sasha, and then disappeared into her body.

The next second, Sasha ran quickly into the house, and when she came out again, she was holding a blank notebook and a pencil.

"Sister, let me draw a portrait of you."

Before Xu Qingling could agree, Sasha picked up her pen and began to draw.

She hardly needed to think or pause; her pen instantly began to sketch on the paper.

In just a few minutes, a simple sketch of Xu Qingling was completed.

"Wow, sister, look, isn't it beautiful? I actually drew this!" Sasha glanced at Xu Qingling, then at the portrait, her bright eyes wide open.

"It looks good, very similar." Xu Qingling gave a fair evaluation.

"Sister, I think I'm so great!" Holding the portrait, Sasha happily twirled around, lifting her skirt.

Sasha then began a frenzy of drawing, sketching a small building, potted plants, shelves in a general store, and even a little cleaning sprite diligently wiping the table with a small rag...

"Don't move yet." Sasha half-lay on the table, her big eyes wide as she peered at the cleaning sprite in front of her.

The little boy, clutching the small rag, froze. He was overjoyed to know that Sasha was going to draw for him, and his expression instantly turned serious. However, after Sasha stared at him for a while, his chubby cheeks flushed red.

"Wow, you're so cute~" This is a phrase that Sasha recently learned.

"How about I name you Mengmeng?"

The little cleaning sprite—no, now he's called Mengmeng—his eyes lit up instantly, welling up with tears, and then he nodded shyly.

Soon after observing, Sasha drew a portrait of Mengmeng.

Little Mengmeng stared blankly at the portrait Sasha had finished drawing for him for a long time. Then, very carefully, he used both hands to huff and puff as he dragged the portrait, which was much larger than his body, away like a treasure and hid it. As for where he hid it, no one knew...
