"You've already hurt him once, why should I trust you?" Cheng Lijun relaxed slightly, and her tense body gradually calmed down.

Tao Ye lowered his eyes, looked at the sunlight falling on the bed, and said softly:

"Sorry, but I want to try."

Cheng Lijun's eyes also fell on the bright and warm sun.After being silent for a long time, she opened her fist and said to Tao Ye:

"If you fail, I will really hate you for the rest of my life..."

After finishing speaking, she realized that her life was over, so she added another sentence:

"I will hate you in my next life."

Tao Ye nodded slightly, took the ball from Cheng Lijun's palm, and carefully placed the ball on the floor in front of the window.

The sunlight spread evenly on the ball, like a layer of transparent icing, coating the ball with a layer of oil.

In the bright light, something inside the ball is constantly surging, like the surface of a rising tide, constantly changing.

Tao Ye focused his attention on this small ball, and in an instant, the picture of Cheng Qiangjun getting along with him flooded into his mind.

These pictures are like film reels, flashing non-stop.

At the moment when the silence of the picture stopped, Tao Ye sprinkled an extremely light fire power on the ball.

After a while, the surface of the ball seemed to be melted, peeling off like a chocolate glaze on a cake.After the surface of the ball completely melted, a puff of mist rose from the center of the ball and gradually transformed into a human shape in the air.

In less than ten seconds, the fog gathered into Cheng Qiangjun's appearance.

Seeing her brother standing there intact, Cheng Lijun's eyes felt hot.She rushed towards Cheng Qiangjun, trying to hug him, but missed, and passed straight through his body.

They are all souls, without the blessing of the power of law, without the attachment of the physical body, the soul body cannot touch and hug each other.

"Brother..." Cheng Lijun's voice was crying.

As if waking up from a big dream, Cheng Qiangjun stood in place and was stunned for a long time before he realized it. He looked around, opened his mouth, and called Cheng Lijun's name.

Cheng Lijun burst into tears. She wanted to hug her brother, but she couldn't touch Cheng Qiangjun's soul, so she could only sit on the floor and vent her emotions.

For the first time, Tao Ye felt that this high-decibel cry was not so annoying.He walked up to Cheng Qiangjun and said softly:

"sorry."

Cheng Qiangjun rolled his eyes, went to Cheng Lijun and squatted down, stretched out his hand, stroked her shoulder through the air, and comforted her softly:

"It's okay, it's okay, I'm not here."

It took a while before Cheng Lijun's mood stabilized.Cheng Qiangjun turned his gaze to Tao Ye, and said to Tao Ye, "It's not your fault."

Tao Ye was stunned, he didn't expect Cheng Qiangjun to say that.

"It was a man who claimed to be a god and killed us." Cheng Qiangjun gritted his teeth and said while looking at Tao Ye.

This person who claims to be a god should be Shen An.Dan was right, the person who killed Cheng Qiangjun's brother and sister really was someone else.

In Cheng Qiangjun's narration, Tao Ye understood the whole story.

That day in Cheng Lijun's dormitory building, Tao Ye and Cheng Qiangjun were taken away by the police after they found Jian Xun's body.

After coming out of the police station, Tao Ye went to the human world by himself, while Cheng Qiangjun took a taxi to send Cheng Lijun home.On the way home, an out-of-control truck drove head-on, smashing the taxi that Cheng Qiangjun and his sister were riding into.

Cheng Lijun died on the spot. The dying Cheng Qiangjun watched his sister's soul leave his body, but he could do nothing.

After Cheng Qiangjun was sent to the hospital, the rescue soon failed and he was pronounced dead.

His mother rushed in from the door, crying on his body.At this moment, a man in a black suit came in.

"If you traded your life for the lives of your children, would you be willing?" the black suit asked Cheng's mother.

With tears on her face, Mother Cheng raised her head in pain and looked at the speaker.This man has a friendly face, looks about 30 years old, well-dressed, and doesn't look like an ordinary person.

Without even thinking about it, Mother Cheng grabbed the man's cuff and cried loudly:

"I am willing, as long as the two of them can live, I am willing to do anything."

The man slightly hooked the corners of his lips, raised his hand to help Cheng's mother up, patted her on the shoulder and comforted her: "You will get what you want."

Mother Cheng was startled, not knowing what this meant.But immediately after, she saw Cheng Qiangjun's wound healed rapidly, the color on his face returned, and his chest began to heave.

When Cheng's mother was stunned, Cheng Lijun, who was covered with a white cloth, sat up on a stretcher beside her and shouted at her:

"mom!"

Even if she hopes that her children can come back from the dead, Mother Cheng's reason is still there.She took two steps back and looked at this unreasonable phenomenon, feeling both joy and fear in her heart.

But soon, the excitement of regaining what was lost took over her mind, she rushed up, hugged Cheng Lijun, and they hugged and cried bitterly.

And Cheng Qiangjun, who just woke up from death, lay on the bed blankly, looking sideways at his mother and sister, a sense of unreality quickly enveloped him.

It shouldn't be like this, Cheng Qiangjun stared at the ceiling, thinking so.

The man in the black suit walked to Cheng Qiangjun's bed, looked down at him, and asked softly:

"Won't you get up and hug them?"

Cheng Qiangjun opened his mouth, but finally did not speak.

It was so weird, he had been educated in materialism since he was a child, and Cheng Qiangjun couldn't understand this situation.

Although Tao Ye doesn't look very materialistic...

That night, under the watchful eyes of everyone, Cheng's mother took Cheng Lijun and Cheng Qiangjun's hands and left the hospital.All the medical staff in the hospital just watched them leave without taking any action.

Hearing this, Tao Ye has roughly confirmed that the person who "resurrected" the Cheng Qiangjun brothers and sisters is probably Shen An.And the person who killed Cheng Qiangjun's brother and sister was probably also Shen An.

Shen An's words really haven't changed for thousands of years.

Before, Shen An asked Dan if he was willing to die for Xiaobai.This time I asked Mother Cheng if she would die for her children.It seems that Shen An is a bit perverted, and has a strong obsession with dying on behalf of others.

Cheng Qiangjun looked at Tao Ye's original appearance, frowned, and continued:

"After that, he came to my house in the middle of the night. He took my mother away and shrunk me into a little ball."

Cheng Lijun's mood also stabilized a lot, and added: "Then he took us to Dan and told me that Dan can help me. If you want to save my mother and my brother, you must listen to Dan."

Tao Ye had already guessed Shen An's intention, sneered, and mocked:

"This dog thing really slapped a sweet date."

In the final analysis, although everything started because of Tao Ye, the culprit in the tragedy of Cheng Qiangjun's family was still Shen An.

After listening to these, Cheng Lijun also gradually stabilized his mind, and analyzed:

"I understand, that Shen An wanted Tao Ye's soul, so he used our family as pawns."

"That's right." Tao Ye felt a killing intent in his heart, but soon, this killing intent turned into a bottomless pool of water.

After that, Cheng Qiangjun siblings chatted with Tao Ye for a long time.Tao Ye didn't leave the room until the sun was setting.

Before leaving, Tao Ye turned his head and said to Cheng Qiangjun:

"Don't worry, there must be an explanation."

……

After coming out of the room, Tao Ye found that Lu Yi was waiting for him at the desk.

Without asking him about the interrogation, Lu Yi just asked him with a faint smile, "Are you hungry? What do you want to eat?"

Tao Ye felt a little guilty when he saw Lu Yi, and he felt a little sorry for Lu Yi when he thought of taking so many difficult jobs for Lu Yi.

"Why don't you go back and eat." Tao Ye walked to the side of the clothes hanger, raised his hand and took off the hanging wool coat, and put it on his body.

"Alright." Lu Yi packed his briefcase and nodded.

Chengkong Plaza, where Lu Yi lives, is in the new district of City S, a distance away from the noodle restaurant run by the world.When the two drove back, it was the evening rush hour, and there was a traffic jam on the elevated road for several kilometers.

Being stuck on the elevated highway, Tao Ye was not idle, he kept his head down and fiddled with something on his mobile phone.

Outside the car window, restless drivers kept honking their horns, urging the car in front to move forward quickly.Lu Yi has never been impatient, so he turned on the car stereo slowly, and then listened to some foreign music that Tao Ye couldn't understand.

After a long time, Tao Ye turned off the phone screen, leaned on the back of the seat and breathed a sigh of relief, staring at the blinking brake lights outside the front windshield and stared blankly.

It took more than 50 minutes to return from the noodle shop to Chengkong Square. During this period, Tao Ye did not have much communication with Lu Yi.

Before Tao Ye always thought that when two people were together, they had to talk about everything.But once the fatigue after work hit, he really didn't want to say a word.What Tao Ye didn't expect was that with Lu Yi, even if he didn't speak, he wouldn't feel awkward.

After returning to Chengkong Square, in the lobby, the two were stopped by the security guard: "Mr. Tao, I have your takeaway."

It was only then that Tao Ye remembered that when he was in the car just now, he ordered some fresh ingredients. It seemed that motorcycles ran faster than cars, and the delivery boy had already delivered the ingredients ahead of time.

After taking the bag from the security guard, Tao Ye stared at the security guard for a while, then said, "Thank you."

Lu Yi naturally took the bag in Tao Ye's hand, and together with Tao Ye, turned around and went to the elevator door.

The security guard stood where he was, looking at the backs of the two of them, lost in thought.One or two months ago, Tao Ye came to Chengkong Square to look for Lu Yi for the first time, and he was the security guard who stopped Tao Ye at that time.

Unexpectedly, with the passage of time, Tao Ye and Mr. Lu on the 99th floor have such a good relationship.

The security guard stomped remorsefully, knowing that he would not have stopped Tao Ye back then.

……

After returning to the apartment, Lu Yi took the ingredients Tao Ye bought into the kitchen.

Tao Ye bought glutinous rice, chicken, and some fruits.Lu Yi skillfully took the ingredients out of the bag and arranged them neatly on the kitchen counter.

Just as Lu Yi washed his hands, changed his clothes, and walked into the kitchen to prepare the ingredients, Tao Ye was already busy at the stove.

"I'm cooking today."

Tao Ye turned his head and said to Lu Yi while cleaning glutinous rice clumsily.

Looking at the messy kitchen made by Tao Ye, Lu Yi rolled up his cuffs twice, walked up to Tao Ye, and wanted to take the plastic basin for washing vegetables in Tao Ye's hand: "I'll come, you go to rest .”
