Ling Yue decided that it would be better to let Zhang Lei and his wife communicate clearly on their own during the seventh day after his death, since she was just a stranger to A Jun after all.

After having coffee with Ah-Jun, I could clearly feel the change in her.

It felt like we had been traveling in the desert for a long time, and just when we were on the verge of death, we saw an oasis.

The way Ah-Jun left the coffee shop was a stark contrast to how she was when she first came in.

She said goodbye to Ling Yue, as she needed to go back and prepare to pick up her daughter from school.

Ling Yue watched Ah Jun leave, looking at the coffee that had gone cold.

Thinking of something, he called out to Lu Boqing while looking at his watch.

In an instant, Lu Boqing appeared in front of Ling Yue, looking irritated, and said, "I told you, call me only when you're in a crisis. What? This coffee isn't good?"

"Qingqing, tonight is the night Zhang Lei's spirit returns. Do you have any way to make Zhang Lei return home and reunite with his family as he was in life?"

Lu Boqing said somewhat embarrassedly, "I really can't help you this time. I don't have that ability. However, you can ask Li Siqi. He will definitely have a solution."

There are still things Lu Boqing can't do, haha.

"Then how do I find Brother Li?"

Lu Boqing took out his phone and swiped around for a while, then said to Ling Yue, "Close your eyes."

What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious, and even closing your eyes?

As soon as Ling Yue closed her eyes as instructed, she felt her body suddenly shake, and when she opened her eyes, she found herself in the Underworld.

The coffee shop waiter walked over to Ling Yue's seat, looked around, and even searched under the table.

Strange, where did that beautiful woman who was just drinking coffee suddenly disappear?

What kind of new trick is this for skipping out on your bill?

……

"Wow, Qingqing, teleporting between the Yin and Yang realms is just too awesome!"

"Don't make a fuss. Come on, I'll take you to find Li Siqi."

"Oh, okay."

Ling Yue strolled along the commercial street in front of the Underworld once again, and a unique feeling welled up in her heart.

I remember the first time I visited this place, all I could think about was how to get back to the mortal world, as if there were some ferocious gods or beasts here.

Now, however, one can leisurely stroll along this bustling street.

When she passed by that donkey meat sandwich shop, Ling Yue was incredibly excited.

I haven't had this donkey meat sandwich in ages, I really miss it.

So she grabbed Lu Boqing's sleeve and said, "Lu Boqing, I want to eat donkey meat sandwiches!"

Looking at her greedy expression, Lu Boqing disdainfully broke free from her clutches.

"No money."

"You're so stingy! You're a little prince here, you know. Last time, Brother Li treated me to one without saying a word. I can't forget the taste. It's so much better than what we have in the mortal world!"

"Is that so? Li Siqi is really generous; that's ten merits."

Yes, I had no concept of merit points before, but now I know that this fire can make me live for ten more days.

Ling Yue glanced at the donkey meat sandwich, licked her lips, and swallowed.

In the end, I held back.

"gone."

Seeing Ling Yue's pathetic expression, Lu Boqing decided to join the queue, considering she had bought him Lego, and decided to reward her with one to satisfy her craving.

Some people in the crowd recognized Lu Boqing and made way for him.

"Your Highness is also here for donkey meat sandwiches? Please go first, please go first."

Before long, Lu Boqing was surrounded and brought to the front of the line, and even the owner of the donkey meat sandwich shop offered to give him a free meal.

This guy has quite a lot of prestige here, it must be because of his father!

Even in the underworld, it's an era where connections matter!

"No need for a free meal, please put it on my father's tab."

Ling Yue: That's really a pain in the ass.

King Yama: This is my family's most filial son.

Ling Yue, enjoying a donkey meat sandwich, happily arrived at Li Siqi's office in the Underworld.

"Hello, Brother Li!"

Ling Yue wanted to catch up with Li Siqi, as she had already heard from Lu Boqing that he had saved her thanks to the ghost doctor Liu Ruyan.

She needed to ask Li Siqi about the ghost doctor; his life-saving grace was like that of a second parent.

"Let's get down to business!"

Lu Boqing interrupted her thoughts directly.

Well, that's true, time waits for no one!

"Brother Li, isn't tonight the seventh day after Brother Zhang Lei's death? I have a request, and I wonder if you can help me fulfill it. I won't ask for it for nothing; I can exchange it with merit points."

Upon hearing this, Li Siqi had a rough guess and glanced at Lu Boqing out of the corner of her eye.

"Come on, let me guess, is it that Zhang Lei will reunite with his family tonight as a normal person on the night of his return from the dead?"

He's really a shrewd person!

Ling Yue increasingly felt that Li Siqi was not just a warm-hearted older brother, but that he might also be able to read minds.

"Yes, yes, how much merit do you think I need to pay?"

Ling Yue's heart was pounding; she wondered if she could negotiate the price.

After all, he had to "live frugally" to save up the little merit he had accumulated.

"Ms. Ling, given our relationship, isn't talking about money a bit too vulgar? How about we try a different kind of deal this time?"

A different kind of transaction?

Ling Yue breathed a sigh of relief that she didn't need to use merit to make the transaction.

But then I thought, what could I possibly have that would be coveted by a "ox-headed and horse-faced demon" from the underworld?

Could it be my fate?

"Relax, I just want Sweetheart to be with me for a while, how about a month?"

"Wait a minute, what do you want?"

"Sweetheart, isn't that the name you gave her?"

Ling Yue quickly checked her small bag. Thankfully, the black stone was still inside.

"Um, Brother Li, if I may ask, what do you need the sweets for?"

Ling Yue's heart pounded. Sweetheart is a ghost, you know, brother, you know your profession, right?

My arch-rival!

I absolutely cannot let him see Sweetheart!

"Don't get me wrong, it's just out of pure interest, sweetheart."

As Li Siqi spoke, she called out "Sweetheart," and immediately Sweetheart popped out from his chest.

Ling Yue simply couldn't believe it.

When Sweetheart saw Ling Yue, she excitedly floated right to her side: "Ling Yue!"

How did Sweetheart manage to crawl out of Li Siqi's arms?

When did he take Sweetheart away?

Ling Yue had too many questions, but Sweetheart didn't give her a chance to ask.

"Lingyue, Lingyue, I want to eat snail rice noodles."

Ling Yue: ……

Li Siqi: ……

These girls are really carefree!

"How about it? I guarantee that it will be returned to its rightful owner in one month."

"That depends on whether Sweetheart is willing or not. My opinion doesn't count."

Li Siqi seemed to have anticipated Ling Yue's response, and immediately called out Sweetheart's name loudly.

Upon hearing the call, Sweetheart stared directly into Li Siqi's eyes, and then promptly floated to Li Siqi's side.

It's like being possessed by an evil spirit.
