In the blink of an eye, Jiang Qi and his companion arrived at the stairwell.

The little girl was still stuck in that spot, and she looked excited when she saw the two of them appear.

Jiang Qi stepped forward and picked up the little girl with one hand, while Lu Zhi carried the wheelchair away.

This whole thing doesn't look like helping at all; it looks more like kidnapping a poor, innocent little girl.

The little girl neither cried nor made a fuss; she simply pulled hard on Jiang Qi's hand to express her resistance.

Jiang Qi remained motionless, his tone cold and unapproachable, "If you move again, I'll let go."

Upon hearing this, the little girl stopped struggling and quickly put on a harmless smile.

He pointed directly to the second-floor corridor and said, "My home is on this floor."

The viewers watching Jiang Qi's live stream couldn't stop laughing at this scene; it was completely different from what they had imagined.

"Little girl: Jiang Qi, are you being polite?"

"Little girl: I'm a ghost! How could I be picked up like this? And threatened?"

"The little girl has been grabbed by the scruff of the neck by fate, and she can't resist even if she wants to, hahaha."

"I thought there would be some danger, but it turned out to be so funny."

Unlike the cheerful atmosphere in the live stream, Jiang Qi remained vigilant.

As Jiang Qi went upstairs, his eyes never left the little girl.

He also noticed that the plush rabbit she was hugging tightly was exactly the same as the one they had seen in the storage box in the hallway.

However, what she was holding now was brand new, and the little girl was holding it in her arms like a treasure.

When Jiang Qi first tried to touch the doll rabbit, the little girl looked fierce.

Jiang Qi was helpless; after all, he couldn't afford to provoke her, or he would lose what he had almost gotten his hands on.

Jiang Qi suddenly blurted out, "Do you know Qiqi?"

The little girl was also stunned for a moment, seemingly incredulous that a stranger knew her sister's name.

The little girl wasn't sure if they had any ill intentions, but it was undeniable that they had helped her.

However, the little girl only half-heartedly hummed in agreement and told them that her name was Qiqi.

"So you're Qiqi." Jiang Qi's words were full of hidden meaning.

There weren't many stairs, and they quickly reached the second floor, where Lu Zhi placed the wheelchair in the hallway.

Jiang Qi gently placed "Qiqi" into the wheelchair, supporting himself with both hands on the armrests.

He crouched down and looked up at "Qiqi," his voice deep and delicate. Even though he was speaking with his head held high, Jiang Qi was just as imposing.

"We'll meet again next time, go home, Kiki."

Jiang Qi emphasized the word "Qiqi" very heavily, but "Qiqi" seemed oblivious, still smiling sweetly as she thanked Jiang Qi and the other person.

Lu Zhi watched the interaction between the two, his eyes slightly darkening.

Jiang Qi straightened up and waved to "Qiqi," then lazily leaned against Lu Zhi's side.

As Lu Zhi watched "Qiqi" flee in panic, he sped up in his wheelchair as if afraid they would catch up.

When "Qiqi" entered that incredibly familiar room, Jiang Qi became even more certain of his thoughts.

Lu Zhi smiled enigmatically, then turned to look at Jiang Qi.

Jiang Qi felt a heat near his ear as Lu Zhi's deep voice rang out, tinged with a mischievous smile.

"Brother, you're so cute."

Jiang Qi turned his head to look at Lu Zhi, puzzled, and their eyes met.

Is this distance too close? Jiang Qi wondered to himself.

Lu Zhi, of course, wouldn't miss any of Jiang Qi's micro-expressions; they were so close that they could only hear each other's breathing.

Jiang Qi couldn't stand it and avoided eye contact. He unconsciously touched his ear, then coughed a few times with his fingers to cover his mouth to hide the strange feeling of his heart racing.

"Let's go, let's get out of here first."

Lu Zhi was surprised that his actions did not offend Jiang Qi. It seems that the books written by humans are true. It seems that he needs to learn more and then it will be only a matter of time before his brother accepts him.

The little girl's obedient expression vanished after she entered the room.

Instead, he wore an angry expression and threw things around in a fit of rage.

"I'm so angry! I'm so angry! Ugh!! I was actually tricked by a mere human."

"Sister, sister!" A voice called out from the darkness, both surprised and delighted.

A little girl with pigtails hopped out of the darkness.

Upon hearing her younger sister's voice, the little girl immediately beamed with joy.

"Is my sister being bullied? Who sent Qiqi to help her?"

Qiqi kept touching and feeling around, worried that her older sister might have gotten hurt somewhere.

Although they all died and became ghosts, they were still inevitably childish as children.

The older and younger sisters huddled together, discussing how to deal with Jiang Qi and his gang that night. They started giggling when they got to the scene where the gang members were scared out of their wits.

The light bulb in the room suddenly turned on, illuminating every corner of the room with a warm yellow light.

A woman in a white dress stood at the doorway of the room and spoke helplessly.

"Qiqi, Qiqi, you two come and eat."

After saying that, Qiqi pushed Qiqi quickly to the woman's side, and they opened their arms and hugged their mother tightly.

The mother lovingly stroked their heads and spoke earnestly.

"The neighbors are all very nice people, don't play pranks on them or scare them, okay?"

The two sisters nodded in unison, but their plans remained unchanged.

Under the warm yellow light, a family of three sat peacefully in their chairs, eating their meal.

The scene was incredibly heartwarming, resembling the atmosphere of an ordinary family.

But as Qiqi and Qiqi ate, they soon couldn't help but start crying.

Tears fell in large drops into their rice bowls. They all knew it was just a dream, but they were all so immersed in it that they couldn't pull themselves out.

They willingly lived in this beautiful dream, but unfortunately, this dream was so fragile that it burst as easily as a bubble.
