"I'm not a qualified father, nor am I a qualified husband. I'll let them live here for a long time."

"Does what he said have anything to do with our subject matter? He's changing the subject. " Ye Hanyi retorted.

Dong Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes. "Do you think he's you? After working as a ghost for so long, you've suddenly regained consciousness and can't let out a sigh?"

Ye Hanyi suddenly said, "Hmph, I don't want to talk to you."

"Same here."

It was a common occurrence for the two of them to bicker. In the eyes of others, Dong Xiaoxiao was just minding her own business and no one would notice her.

Just as they were arguing, Shucheng continued, "Before I tell you the truth, I want you to help me get my inheritance back, give it to the mother and daughter."

"What inheritance?" the Crane Lin asked.

Even Shu Yi Huan had a puzzled look on her face. However, her mother had a helpless look on her face.

These people were truly interesting. Not to mention that the male owner had become a fierce ghost after death, as their only child, Shu Rui Huan did not even know about this inheritance.

"Before my mother passed away, she left me with a house, which was transferred into my possession. However, before I could sign for it, an accident occurred. For some reason, that house was taken over by Huanhuan's elder sister … "I need you to help me get the inheritance back. When that happens, I'll tell you the truth."

Ignoring Ye Hanyi's smelly face, Dong Xiaoxiao nodded without hesitation, "Alright, I promise you."

Shucheng revealed her first smile before gradually fading away. Before disappearing, he even said, "If you don't keep your promise, I will reappear …"

With that, he completely disappeared.

The wind had stopped, and in this land that had not been bathed in sunlight for many years, it was finally the first sun that welcomed them. There was an extra trace of warmth in the house.

It was as if everything was calm and peaceful.

Everyone was captivated by the scene before them. Due to the incident with the Shu Family, they had not opened their windows for many years.

Today, when the sunlight shone in, Shu Yihuan walked out of the haze. She opened the window in pleasant surprise, "Mom, did you see that?"

Everything was progressing in a good direction. The haze surrounding Shu Yi's house was about to disperse.

Old Mrs. Shu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and nodded in gratification.

She had more or less guessed over the years that there was something unclean about the house, but she had never imagined that the unclean thing would be her husband.

How long it had been since the sun had risen, and how long it had been since she'd left the house. After leaving Shu Yi Huan's house, Crane Forest had been looking at Dong Xiaoxiao and Dong Xiaoxiao with a strange expression. He felt uncomfortable looking at them, and even Ye Hanyi kept looking at her as if she were retarded.

After a few minutes, she finally could not help but test the Crane Forest. "Why do you keep looking at me like that? Was what I said wrong? "

He Lin gave her a meaningful glance, smiled and said, "No, I just think that senior sister is a very special person."

Ye Hanyi chuckled, "Don't believe it, he's just trying to comfort you."

Dong Xiaoxiao's face darkened. She thought to herself, 'The reason for their strangeness is because of what Shu Cheng asked for just now. Could it be that she really agreed wrongly.'

Thinking this way, she quickly caught up with the Crane Forest. "Junior Brother, did I say something wrong?"

"Senior did very well, we'll end it here for today, the Earth Binding Spirit must fulfill its wish before it will leave, this is also my duty, today I have been busy all day, senior should go back and rest, tomorrow at 8 AM, I will be waiting for you at school."

The crane forest left in such a mysterious manner.

Dong Xiaoxiao looked at his back and muttered, "Why is it so weird? Why don't I chase after him and ask?"

When Ye Hanyi heard this, his eyes focused and the chill on his face was revealed without any concealment. "If you dare to go, I'll kick you out today."

Dong Xiaoxiao was confused. She was already agitated, and upon hearing his threatening tone, she could not help but retort,

"This is my body. Master Ye, it turns out that you are so interested in being a girl. Does your family know about this?"

As their souls met, Ye Hanyi's furious gaze turned even more furious. Just a moment ago, Ye Hanyi was suddenly amused by Dong Xiaoxiao.

He said helplessly, "Sometimes I don't know if you're really stupid or just pretending. Didn't you just hear from Shucheng that Shuyi Yuhuan's sister has power in her family, and what about you? You're just a student, what method are you going to use to help them get the house back? "

Dong Xiaoxiao was stunned. She had indeed not thought of this question before. She had only wanted to complete the mission then and had agreed. But the problem had come now.

She bit her lip, lowered her head, and said, "It was my mistake."

Seeing her like this, Ye Hanyi couldn't be bothered to reprimand her anymore, "Alright, you have no other way, but that doesn't mean that Hei Lin has no other way. Go back quickly. You should eat and drink. There will be a way to resolve this sooner or later."

"Why do I think you're cursing me?" Dong Xiaoxiao was a bit unhappy.

The meaning behind Ye Hanyi's words was that he wouldn't be able to come back tomorrow, so he had to eat and drink today.

Ye Hanyi didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I feel like our thoughts are like two different worlds. Even if we were to forcefully twist them together, there would come a day when they would explode."

"Can I take it that you despise me?"

"If that's what you must think, then so be it."

Dong Xiaoxiao was speechless.

She and Ye Hanyi were probably born to be scoundrels. If they weren't fighting, then it was just arguing. She was very grateful that Ye Hanyi had helped her a few times before, but his patience was limited.

On the way home, Dong Xiao was depressed. Even when Ye Hanyi took the initiative to apologize, he did not have any reaction.

During dinner time, he couldn't help but poke Dong Xiaoxiao. "Why didn't you say anything?"

Dong Xiaoxiao looked dispirited. "I think you and Crane Lin have hurt my self-esteem."

She thought about it for a while, and finally understood why these two would look at her that way when she left the Shu residence.

She thought she had done a good deed, but in the eyes of others, it turned out to be nothing more than a joke.

Ye Hanyi was stunned. "What did you say?"

Dong Xiaoxiao ignored him and went straight to sleep. "I want to sleep. Come out if you want to, but don't overdo it."

Without giving Ye Hanyi a chance to speak, Dong Xiaoxiao covered herself with the blanket, as if intentionally blocking any communication with the outside world.

Ye Hanyi called out a few times, but she didn't reply. Ye Hanyi shook his head helplessly. He looked at the sleeping Dong Xiaoxiao and rubbed his head.

Were the words too harsh?

It really hurt her self-esteem.
