Shocking! A master of metaphysics has been mind-reading!

Xia Wange walked briskly, occasionally greeting the tables next to her, always with a smile on her face. To outsiders, she seemed to be familiar with the air around her.

Although Xia Wange prepared a Yin Stone for everyone that could see ghosts, they all tacitly refrained from bringing it.

They all felt that as long as they didn't carry the Yin Stone and actually saw those things, they could still be Schrödinger's materialists.

Once you've brought it and seen it, there's no going back.

They still yearn for a pair of eyes they've never seen before.

Deceiving oneself is useless, but it is effective for the mind.

Xia Wange and Lu Qiu's attire was no longer as elaborate as it was during the day, but rather more practical and simple. According to Xia Wange, if anyone came to cause trouble at night, she would have to fight them.

She invited so many ghosts that she genuinely couldn't remember which ones she had a grudge against. This time, she basically just sent out wedding invitations. She set up the tables near the main entrance as a kind of banquet, so that any wandering ghost could come in and have a bite to eat, as a way to make good connections through her wedding.

As they walked to the front row, no ghosts or monsters appeared to cause trouble, and Xia Wange's smile became even brighter.

She changed all her jewelry to jade and even put some Buddhist ritual objects inside her clothes, just in case. Fortunately, everyone was very understanding.

When Xia Wange saw the ghost bride sitting at the front table with her gang of followers, glancing at the few restless little ghosts behind her, she knew why there wasn't a single troublemaking ghost around.

It turns out that it was "truth" that was suppressing things.

Xia Wange was very grateful to the ghost bride for saving the day, but she was also a little disappointed.

She felt a slight pang of regret; it had been a long time since she had ever laid a hand on someone.

The ghost bride even thoughtfully layered a black robe over her red wedding dress, which made Xia Wange feel very pleased.

"Everyone," Xia Wange said simply and clearly as she stood on the stage, scanning the ghosts with her third eye, "I've gathered everyone together on this special day to have a meal and get together."

Some of you I've known since you were still human, and some of you are even my close friends despite the age gap; you've been ghosts longer than I have.

It's fate that we met, so please feel free to eat and drink as you please.

"If you need anything, just come to me. I can't guarantee anything else, but tonight you'll have plenty to eat."

After finishing her words, Xia Wange gave Lu Qiu a few instructions and then went to find the ghost bride. She discovered that the ghost bride had brought many handsome male ghosts with her this time. The male ghosts were of all shapes and sizes, each with their own unique characteristics. She had to keep an eye on the ghost bride and not let her become too obsessed with male beauty. Power is the only true tonic.

Xia Wange had just sat down next to the ghost bride and hadn't even had a chance to say a few words when the tightly closed hall door was suddenly blown open by a gust of wind. In an instant, the wind rushed into the hall, scattering the smoke everywhere.

Feeling the eerie wind, Xia Wange reached to her waist, pulled out a feather fan, held it in her palm, and looked down at the door.

"It seems they've come looking for me." The ghost bride slightly raised her hand and sat up straight. "I'm sorry, I'll take care of it now."

"I'll go with you." Xia Wange straightened her sleeves. It had been a long time since she had fought, and she felt like her bones were about to fall apart. "Even if they come looking for you, the place they want to cause trouble is mine. If I don't teach them a lesson, there won't be anyone left in the underworld."

After saying that, Xia Wange rushed out before the ghost bride. When she passed Lu Qiu, she left a message saying, "Treat the guest well. I'll be back in ten minutes." Then she disappeared.

Lu Qiu knew that Xia Wange was desperate to fight and her hands were itching to get going.

According to Xia Wange, since her meridians were opened and she received a large amount of good fortune, she has become terrifyingly strong.

Just how terrifying it is, however, has yet to be tested with a suitable method.

Now, the test that Xia Wange had been waiting for has finally arrived, and she is extremely excited.

Just as Lu Qiu was pondering and worrying about how to entertain the guests, Du Yun, who had been silent for a long time, slammed his hand on the table, stood up, drank the small cup of wine in front of him, and then said to the group, "Alright, now it's my turn to make my appearance."

Then Lu Qiu saw Du Yun, slightly tipsy, start chatting with thin air.

That's why they say Du Yun has a silver tongue, able to speak human language to human and ghost language to ghost. In just a few minutes, Du Yun's state completely changed.

The conversation quickly went from awkward small talk to natural familiarity in just a minute or two, and he even took out the Yin Stone and put it on.

"Come on, buddy, let's have a drink. I felt it was cooler here than other places when I was sitting over there. I think you must be special." Du Yun held the wine, swung it in the air, spilled half of it, and then drank the other half himself.

"I'll do it, you can do whatever you want."

"Oh dear, it turns out you're a young lady. Sorry, sorry, I only care about the hair. I'll punish myself with a drink."

"Oh, you mean you froze to death? No wonder it's the coldest place here. And why is it dripping water here?"

"Oh, so the person next to you died in the fire? I see. I was wondering why I didn't recognize you when I put on the Yin Stone. I thought there was just a shadow standing here."

"Huh? Bro, you want me to guess how you died? I think you drowned, huh? Let me guess how you drowned?"

"How would I know? Brother, tell me, you're only saying this because you died in a really weird way, like you got drunk and drowned in chicken soup? This..."

"How do I want to die? I don't want to die. If I have to choose, then I'll just die of old age."

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about death anymore. It's fate that we're all gathered here today. Let's talk about something good. You wait here, I've already sent over some paper money and yellow paper. I'll put a basin at the door and burn it in a bit. Take some with you when you leave. It won't be a wasted trip."

Lu Qiu, Zhou Youning, and Xiao Zhu: "..."

They all fell silent as they watched Du Yun, who was speaking eloquently and almost completely absorbed in the conversation.

Zhou Youning looked at Lu Qiu, "I heard you recruited Du Yun?"

Xiao Zhu: "I felt like they were chatting so much that they felt like they had known each other for ages, and they even seemed to want to take President Du away with them."

Lu Qiu was silent for a moment, then said, "Why do I have a feeling that Du Yun really wants to go with us?"

"Most of the people who come here are quite particular about their appearance." A clear voice rang in their ears. Xia Wange picked up the tea in front of Lu Qiu and took a sip. "But as for someone as talkative as Du Yun, in all my years of fortune telling, he's the only one I've ever met."

"Are you done with your work?" Lu Qiu looked Xia Wange up and down, and seeing that she was unharmed, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"I'm done with work." Xia Wange pulled out a chair and sat down. "It was so simple. I didn't even have to do anything, and it already failed. Sigh, the ghosts these days are getting worse and worse."

Lu Qiu remained silent.

Xia Wange observed Du Yun's state for a while longer, then suddenly said to Lu Qiu, "Why do I feel that Du Yun is unusually excited?"

Lu Qiu slightly turned his gaze away.

Could it be because Xia Wange wasn't there and he had to entertain the ghosts alone, causing him to be particularly anxious?

He overcame some things mentally, but they were really hard to overcome physically. From beginning to end, goosebumps kept appearing on his arms.

Fortunately, his weakness is Xia Xia's strength, and Xia Xia's weakness is exactly what he excels at.

They really are a match made in heaven.

Xia Wange, who was drinking tea, turned her head blankly to look at Lu Qiu, whose eyes were full of affection. She blinked and scratched her head.

Did she say anything sweet to me just now?

Why is Lu Qiu suddenly looking at her like that?
