Even hybrid monsters have their day

Yin Hao and Shen Zhize were deeply moved by what they saw. Although they were reluctant to admit it, the friendship between the two boys that transcended racial boundaries touched them profoundly, like a warm current flowing into their somewhat numb hearts, irrigating their parched souls.

Since no one had died, the two of them naturally couldn't stay there any longer. After a while, Shen Zhize led the reluctant Chen Ziming away. Before leaving, Yin Hao came to the bedside, stared at Geng Miaowan who was being held in Peng Yuxian's arms, and let out a long sigh.

Whether he sighed or breathed a sigh of relief, he said to her, "You little rascal, you're really willful." Seeing her eyes closed, completely oblivious, he chuckled, shook his head, and left.

The next day, the city police department received a tip-off containing a CD and an address.

After reviewing the DVD, police located the completely decomposed body at the sewage outlet, following the address provided on the note. The remains were identified as those of Chen Ziming, a boy who had gone missing five years prior.

When the Chen family received the child's remains, they were devastated and wept uncontrollably.

At the same time, the police arrested the murderer Chen Qing immediately. When Chen Qing was brought to the police station, he initially denied everything, but when the police officers showed him the CD, he was so shocked that he couldn't say a word and his face turned ashen.

Somehow, the media found out about this, and their report immediately caused a huge uproar. Everyone condemned Chen Qing for being heartless and inhuman, doing such a thing. Chen Qing's son, who lived in another city, also saw the news and said with deep disgust that he didn't have such a father.

Chen Qing was punished according to the law, but died the day before his execution due to excessive fear, which triggered a myocardial infarction. Of course, that's another story.

The Chen family retrieved Chen Ziming's remains from the forensic doctor and buried him in a cemetery on Nanshan Mountain in Xingren Town. The cemetery, with its carefully selected location, materials, and construction, was one of the most prestigious in the city, and countless people wanted to buy a spot there for their afterlife. But no one could secure a place.

After learning about Chen Ziming's situation, the cemetery owner actually contacted Chen Jinyue and his wife, saying that he wanted to provide the child with the best burial plot so that the child's soul could rest in peace.

After the Chen family finished arranging Chen Ziming's funeral, Chen Jinyue, along with Sun Xinyi, personally paid their respects to Geng Miaowan. Upon learning that Chen Ziming had been reincarnated, the two wept and laughed, overwhelmed with mixed emotions of sorrow and joy. They felt even more grateful to Geng Miaowan, almost to the point of kneeling and bowing in gratitude.

After seeing the Chen couple off, it was already dark, and everyone in the office had left. Geng Miaowan stood up, stretched, and rubbed her lower back, which was a little sore from sitting.

She was wearing a cropped t-shirt and jeans today. When Peng Yuxian came out of the clinic, he happened to see a flawless white dress disappearing into the light blue t-shirt. A cryptic look flashed in his eyes.

“Let’s go out to eat today,” he said.

"Why?" Geng Miaowan asked, puzzled. Wasn't he the one who disliked eating out the most?

"There are so many reasons why."

Geng Miaowan hesitated for a moment, "I was just about to tell you that I promised Shuai Shuai I would go and play with him after work."

Peng Yuxian gave her a cool look. "Playing with him doesn't mean you don't have to eat."

"Lu Fangtong told me to go there early so I could have dinner at his house."

He could invite her to dinner, but not her. Peng Yuxian's face suddenly darkened. He grabbed her hand and pulled her outside without saying a word. "Have dinner with me first. After dinner, I'll take you there. I'll also check on Jiang Lan's condition."

"Hey...you, how could you do this? Let go, I'll walk by myself." Geng Miaowan's dissatisfaction was completely ignored by him.

Lu Shuaishuai has been fine since he woke up in the hospital that day. Jiang Lan developed a mental illness due to the stress and anxiety of the past two years, but fortunately, her condition was mild and she has gradually improved after Peng Yuxian's treatment. Furthermore, with Lu Shuaishuai recovered, she is recovering well again, having regained her relaxed mood.

After Luan Hao resolved the crisis for her that day, he fell into a deep sleep. Looking at the fleeting light purple light, Geng Miaowan felt a pang of heartache for no apparent reason. The little bit of spiritual power he had painstakingly cultivated had been wasted by her.

She calculated the time; it had been eleven days since she met Yin Hao. Yin Hao had said that people from the Underworld were looking for him. But eleven days had passed, and there hadn't been a single message from the Underworld. Could it be that Yin Hao hadn't returned to the Underworld yet? Otherwise, why was there still no news?

Sensing that her mind seemed to have wandered, Peng Yuxian unconsciously tightened his grip on her hand, pulling Geng's thoughts back.

She glanced at Peng Yuxian, who was holding her hand. Ever since that incident, his attitude towards her had become somewhat strange. But if asked what was strange about it, she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

Sometimes she would find him staring at her blankly, and when she turned to look at him, he would immediately look away. Other times, she would simply go out for a moment, and when she came back, she would see him looking anxious, as if he were waiting for something. But upon seeing her, he would immediately snap out of it and go about his business with a blank expression.

Geng Miaowan felt that his schizophrenia seemed to have become more severe.

After the two had dinner, Peng Yuxian drove Geng Miaowan to Lu Fangtong's house. The two didn't talk much on the way.

When they arrived, Lu Fangtong's family had just finished dinner. As soon as Lu Shuaishuai saw Geng Miaowan, he pulled her to his room, while Peng Yuxian asked Jiang Lan to do a few tests.

"Sister Geng, look, this is a new airplane my mom bought for me. She said that when Xiaoming comes to play with me again, I should give it to him." Jiang Lan now knows about Chen Ziming's situation. At first, she felt resentful when she found out, but after learning about his tragic experience, she only felt sympathy for him.

Furthermore, the matter has now been resolved, and Chen Ziming has left. However, Peng Yuxian told her that only by completely letting go of her prejudice against Chen Ziming and accepting his image as a friend in Lu Shuaishuai's eyes could she and Lu Shuaishuai truly return to normal.

She is already trying to accept him.

"Yes, this plane is very beautiful. I think Xiaoming will really like it," Geng Miaowan said with a smile.

“Yes.” Lu Shuaishuai laughed as well, fiddling with the plane. “The cockpit door can still be opened; I hid a treasure inside.” (To be continued.)
