Strange Tales of the Ghosts
Chapter 40
Li Bandian found an excuse to send Su Qing'e to the garden to play and told Lv'er the entire story in detail, emphasizing that the other body was missing. As an inheritor of Mt. Mao Sect, Lv'er was aware of how serious this matter was and asked nervously, "And what are you planning to do, Senior Banshan?"
"I don't know yet, that body never appeared, and I don't even know where it is." Li Bandian shook his head.
At this time, Su Qing'e ran inside with a bouquet of flowers in her hands and chirped happily, "Father, look. The flowers are so pretty!"
"Indeed, I still have some matters to discuss with her. Go and play." Li Bandian felt helpless at her naive expression.
Su Qing'e nodded obediently and ran outside again. After she was far enough, Lv'er asked, "So Qing'e doesn't remember anything about herself before her death?"
"She doesn't know anything other than the fact she is a dead body."
"Poor girl," Lv'er sighed. "She doesn't seem to know what a dead body means to the living people. She's too naive, and it's concerning."
"I'm not too worried about that. Qing'e is very obedient, she won't run around if I tell her not to. Judging from her state, it's not easy for anyone to harm her either." Li Bandian was more worried about the other one.
Time was merciless; Lv'er's hair was slowly turning white, and wrinkles also appeared with her smile. She comforted, "Senior Banshan, you did an amazing job. No one has ever nurtured a body as successfully as you."
"One isn't perfect. I don't know where the other body is; if I managed to nurture both of them, it would be perfect."
"Senior Banshan, have you thought about this method before?"
"What method?"
"Since Qing'e and Zhao Tianhu were destined to die together, they should be able to feel a strong connection between themselves. If we could restore Qing'e's memories, doesn't that mean we can find the other one?" It was a risky method, and Lv'er only suggested it as they had no other choice. She had waited for so many years and only agreed to the ridiculous competition to stop the brothers from fighting each other. She was already getting old and didn't know how long it would take for her to finally be with Li Banshan if they didn't solve this.
Li Bandian knew what Lv'er was thinking and avoided answering the question. He asked about her instead, "Did Junior Wuya treat you well over these past years?"
"Yes. He gave me things every year, and he remembered every single festival." Lv'er smiled bitterly. She couldn't be with the person she liked, and she couldn't accept the person who had treated her well for over thirty years. She had turned from a young girl to an old lady.
There was something on Li Bandian's mind, but he never asked her in his letters; he thought it was finally the time to ask, "You once said you told Senior Wuya that he was not allowed to even take one step inside the manor? Is that true?"
"Yes, he's been giving me necessities and foods over these past years and some interesting little things, but he only sent them to the door and never came inside," Lv'er nodded.
Li Bandian was happy that Lv'er kept their promise. Although he would defeat Liu Wuya, he couldn't force himself to laugh. No one would expect the three of them to spend their whole lifetime on a ridiculous promise they made more than thirty years ago.
