Ghost World Office

The night market on Yuanxing Island is very famous, and ninety o'clock in the evening is the bustling time.

The aroma that burst out when the hot oil came into contact with the ingredients surrounded the street, and a group of people shuttled among the vendors and bought a lot of snacks.

The portions of these snacks are not small. After trying three or four servings, there is no room for them in their stomachs.

Although his belly was round, Tao Ye still couldn't resist the temptation of gluttons, looking at the stall selling glutinous rice, he couldn't move.

He has a deep obsession with glutinous rice products. Whether it is glutinous rice chicken or glutinous rice, they are the supreme delicacies in his heart.

"Want to eat that?" Walking beside Tao Ye, Lu Yi looked sideways at Tao Ye and asked in a low voice.

Taking a look at Cheng Qiangjun's siblings and Shen Zhu who were playing with air guns in front, Tao Ye nodded.

This street stall selling glutinous rice is very popular, and there are many people queuing up.Lu Yi was not interested in these things, and always felt that it was not very hygienic, so he advised Tao Ye:

"I've eaten a lot today."

Shaking his head nonchalantly, Tao Ye took a narrow look at Lu Yi and said, "Health preservation is something rich people do, I'm going to get gastroenteritis today!"

Lu Yi had no choice but to let Tao Ye stay where he was, and queue up to buy glutinous rice by himself.

There are two types of glutinous rice sold here: one is sweet, served with white sugar and a few dried fruits, and the other is salty, with chopped fried dough sticks, shallots and shredded pork.

Not sure what Tao Ye wanted to eat, Lu Yi bought one of each.

Carrying the packaged glutinous rice, Lu Yi walked out from the bustling crowd, only to find that Tao Ye was no longer there.

Lu Yi subconsciously looked towards the air gun stand, but there was no sign of Tao Ye, nor even Shen Zhu and the others.

Lu Yi was tall and could see far away in the crowd, but he searched around but couldn't find Tao Ye, only saw the moving heads.

A bad premonition suddenly appeared in his heart, Lu Yi said "excuse me" to the tourists around him, and walked towards the exit of the night market.

He was not a pessimist, nor did he think that Tao Ye would get lost like a child, he was just worried that Tao Ye would be abducted by people from the Dark Portal while he was buying glutinous rice.

The night breeze blew off the leaves on the trees on the side of the street, coupled with the hustle and bustle of people's voices, it was very noisy in Lu Yi's ears.

After finally leaving the night market, Lu Yi still couldn't find Tao Ye.

Just as Lu Yi belatedly took out his mobile phone from his pocket and was about to call Tao Ye, he heard Tao Ye's voice coming from behind:

"Why are you here!"

Hearing the sound, Lu Yi turned his head abruptly, and saw Tao Ye was standing in the night with a big bag of milk tea, safe and sound.

Almost subconsciously, Lu Yi wanted to ask Tao Ye where he had gone, but he still didn't ask, but smiled lightly to cover up his panic:

"There are too many people inside, so I didn't find you."

Tao Ye glanced at the glutinous rice in Lu Yi's hand, and complained, "How did you pack it? The boxes are all loose."

Squeezing around in the crowd just now, Lu Yi was so focused on looking for Tao Ye that he didn't notice that the box containing the glutinous rice was squeezed out of shape.

Glutinous rice leaked out of the carton and spilled all over the plastic bags.

"Ah..." Lu Yi stared helplessly at the bag in his hand, "I'll go buy another one."

Tao Ye smiled, reached out to hold Lu Yi's index finger naturally, walked towards the bench by the street, and joked, "So particular?"

Being held by Tao Ye's hand, Lu Yi froze for a moment, but could not speak.

Tao Ye's palm is very warm, like the belly of a kitten, like the warm cotton wool on the edge of the kotatsu, like all the warm feelings that make people feel at ease.

There is a newly built road outside the night market. Both sides of the street are clean and there are no tourists.

The two sat down on the bench by the street, Tao Ye took out two cups of milk tea from the bag, inserted a straw, and handed a cup to Lu Yi.

Lu Yi took the milk tea, put it aside, carefully opened the plastic bag containing the glutinous rice, and blamed himself: "I didn't expect this paper box to be so fragile."

Tao Ye didn't care about these things. He took the chopsticks from Lu Yi's hand, stuffed a stick of glutinous rice into his mouth, took another sip of milk tea, gulped it down, and exclaimed:

"Fuck, delicious!"

Lu Yi was not hungry. He watched Tao Ye devour rice with chopsticks and milk tea through a straw, and reminded him:

"Slow down, eat too fast for a while and you will easily get nauseated."

Tao Ye responded quite well, and his swallowing movements did not slow down at all.

It wasn't until Tao Ye finished eating and commented, "It's salty and delicious", that Lu Yi remembered that Cheng Qiangjun and the others hadn't appeared for a long time.

"Oh, they..." Wiping the corners of his mouth with a tissue, Tao Ye pointed to a rope knitting shop on the corner of the street and said, "Cheng Lijun and Shen Zhu had to go to weave rope, and Cheng Qiangjun was dragged away too."

When Tao Ye was speaking, Lu Yi did not follow the direction of Tao Ye's finger to look at the rope weaving shop, his eyes stayed on the tip of Tao Ye's sweaty nose.

At this moment, Lu Yi suddenly had a terrible idea——

Just stop now.

Time will never stop, people and things will move forward.

Lu Yi didn't know what was waiting for them next, nor did he know how it would end.The panic when he didn't see Tao Ye just now was like a sharp sword being inserted into Lu Yi's heart, and it still hurts until now.

It's like this if we don't see each other for a second, if we can't see Tao Ye again in our lifetime, Lu Yi doesn't know what to do.

Maybe go crazy...

In the end, these thoughts evolved into a possibility in Lu Yi's mind——

If you give up fighting against the Dark Portal, or even collude with the Dark Portal, it may be more likely to keep such a time with you.

Tao Ye didn't know that the infiltration of the Dark Gate into the ghost world system was not a recent event, but existed a long time ago.

For a long time, the Portal of Darkness has been coexisting with the ghost world system. Those eyeliners who are dormant in the ghost world live peacefully most of the time unless something happens.

Lu Yi knew Shen An's temperament.

If Lu Yi is really willing to make a deal with Shen An, Shen An will not deny him the chance to be with Tao Ye forever.

Even in the past hundred thousand years, Lu Yi has wiped out countless soul raisers, as long as Lu Yi is willing, Shen An is also willing to leave an important seat for Lu Yi in the Dark Gate.

Just as he was thinking about it, the cell phone in Lu Yi's pocket suddenly rang.

The caller was from an unfamiliar number. After answering, a man's voice came from the receiver:

"Hello, is this Mr. Lu?"

Lu Yi recognized that it was Wu Wei's voice that he had seen yesterday.

"Yes, what's the matter?"

The phone receiver was silent for a long time before the voice continued: "The pregnant woman... something happened yesterday. I'm in the hospital now, can you come over?"

When Wu Wei spoke, there seemed to be the sound of screams and broken vessels in the background.

"Can you tell me what's the matter?" Realizing that the phone call was unusual, Lu Yi looked normal, but asked at a faster pace.

Obviously, Wu Wei's situation is urgent, as if something started chasing him.Accompanied by the sudden sound of hurried footsteps from the receiver, Wu Wei deliberately lowered his voice:

"Wait a minute……"

After a while, Wu Wei continued:

"The situation here will not be clear for a while. You can see my son, and you should be able to deal with this matter."

"Okay, let's go." After Lu Yi agreed to go, the phone was hung up.
