Unexpectedly, the young master saw through Shu Fu's thoughts at once. Shu Fu shook her head in fear to deny it.

"No, no, no, if I wasn't sincere, I wouldn't have come here."

The young master smiled and said, "Whatever you say, you can fool others but not yourself."

Shu Fu was speechless for a moment, but she really wanted to give it a try.

The young master smiled when he saw her hesitation.

"How about this, you go and see what that couple does. If you believe it, you can follow them. If you don't believe it, you can just come out directly? How do you think?"

Unexpectedly, this young master was so considerate. Shu Fu immediately nodded gratefully and agreed: "That's great, thank you, young master."

"Then go ahead. Remember, be low-key when you eavesdrop, and don't let anyone find out."

"Okay, okay." Shu Fu nodded repeatedly in response.

Shu Fu pushed open the invisible door and walked in.

This was just an ordinary staircase. She looked around and saw that there was only one way to the second floor, so she walked up the stairs.

Going up to the second floor, there is a fire door. Pushing it open, there is a long, dark corridor.

I could only see the closed doors on both sides of the corridor with the help of the street lamps outside the window. It looked like an office area, but everyone who was working there had gone off work.

If she hadn't heard voices and then seen a room with the door half open and a faint orange light coming through, she would have really wondered if she had come to the wrong place.

She walked over quickly and quietly, and through the half-open door, she saw a large curtain in the room, hanging from the ceiling to the ground.

At this point, the curtains had been completely opened, leaving only a little gap at the edges, so light and shadow could see through.

This is good too, it just covers her up.

Shu Fu tiptoed into the door, then hid on the other side of the curtain, carefully opened a gap, and checked the situation inside.

In the middle of the wall, there is a statue of Guanyin. On the table in front of Guanyin, there are many offerings, and incense is burning, with wisps of white smoke rising.

But looking at all this under the orange light, it seemed a little weird.

Especially the couple who were both kneeling on the ground, and the man was speaking to the Guanyin statue in a crying voice.

"...The doctor has said that this disease cannot be cured, and she can only be kept alive by medical equipment.

But she has been lying in the hospital bed like this, and has to rely on others to take care of her eating, drinking, defecating and urinating. When she is sick, I feel so heartbroken when I see her in pain.

She gave birth to me and raised me. She suffered so much for me and worked hard for me for half her life. But I really, really have reached the end of my road...”

The more the man spoke, the more he sobbed, and finally he just started crying, so the woman continued speaking.

“Both of our children are studying, and I have to take care of both the elderly and the children.

Now my husband is the only one who earns money and bears the expenses of the entire family. The daily medical expenses are too high and we can no longer afford it.

I know the old lady doesn’t want to burden her children, but she can’t be cured, she is in excruciating pain, and we, as her children, can’t bear to see it, so please, can you let her…”

The woman took a deep breath and finally said, "Let her pass away peacefully."

Hearing this, the man burst into tears.

Shu Fu even gasped. They actually came here to seek death?

Saw such a scene.

Shu Fu really wanted to rush over and question the man.

He was just praising the goodness of the elderly and how he had worked hard for them for most of his life. How could he now kneel here and let his wife say such things?

Where is your conscience? Has it been eaten by a dog?

But she soon remembered that she was eavesdropping, and it would be very rude to rush out like this. Besides, it was someone else's family affair and she had no right to interfere.

Plus, the man just said that he has reached a dead end and he has two children to raise at home, so it seems that he has encountered enormous difficulties.

But even so, Shu Fu didn't understand why these two people came here to seek death instead of survival.

Wouldn't it be good to cure the old man? He can also help take care of the children.

Before Shu Fu could think too much, what happened next shocked her even more.

There was actually a voice coming from Guanyin's side.

"I know your wishes, and I can make them come true for you, but what are you willing to give in exchange?"
