Chapter 987: A Ghost?
Editor:Â Henyee Translations
Gu Yang hadnât expected to run into the Feng family, but it didnât faze her. After all, there was nothing shameful about visiting her little blood bankâs parentsâ graves. She remained calm.
âAs you can see, weâre here for tomb-sweeping,â she replied.
Feng Xiaoxiao knew they were there to pay respects to the Feng familyâs graves, but she couldnât understand why Gu Yang was involved.
âWhy did you think of paying respects to our grandparents?â Feng Xiaoxiao asked, her tone suspicious.
Feng Jue responded coolly, âMy girlfriend came with me.â
Feng Xiaoxiao shot Feng Jue a disdainful look. She knew this was Gu Yangâs boyfriend, and while she had to admit his looks were exceptional, she dismissed him as just another pretty face, a gigolo reliant on someone else.
But to her surprise, her father, Feng Xuan, suddenly asked, âWhatâs your name?â
Feng Jueâs cold gaze met Feng Xuanâs as he responded with a faint smile, âFeng Jue.â
The day was rainy and overcast, with mist clinging to the cemetery. In the somber atmosphere, Feng Xuan locked eyes with the young man in white, and for a moment, it felt as if the blood in his veins had frozen.
Before Feng Xuan could ask which âFeng Jueâ he was, he realized that the two of them had vanished from sight.
Panic suddenly surged in Feng Xuanâs heart. He grabbed Feng Xiaoxiao and asked urgently, âXiaoxiao, where are they?â
Feng Xiaoxiao, who had been lost in thought while staring at the tombstone, snapped back to reality. Something flickered in her mind, but she couldnât quite grasp it.
She looked at Feng Xuan, confused. âDad, what people?â
Feng Xuanâs panic deepened, and his voice grew more agitated as he pointed to where Gu Yang and Feng Jue had been standing. âRight here! There were people just nowâhe said his name was Feng Jue! You spoke to him, didnât you?â
Feng Xiaoxiao frowned slightly. âDad, do you need to see a doctor? Are you hallucinating?
Hao and I were just placing flowers for Grandpa and Grandma.â
âExactly,â Feng Hao chimed in. âThis is our Feng familyâs cemetery. Who else would be here?â
Feng Xuan glanced at the other family members trailing behind him, but they all wore the same puzzled expressions as Feng Xiaoxiao and her brother.
âThere was no one else.â
âFamily Head, are you sure you werenât seeing things?â
Suddenly, Feng Haoâs gaze followed the direction his father had pointed, and he hurried over, startled. He pointed to the name on the tombstone and asked, âDad, the Feng Jue you mentioned just nowâwas he our little uncle Feng Jue who died young?â
Feng Xuan turned slowly, his eyes locking onto the name âFeng Jueâ engraved on the tombstone. His mind was overwhelmed by the memory of the young man in white, his dark eyes surrounded by mist, who had just been standing there moments ago.
The fear in Feng Xuanâs heart grew overwhelming, and he suddenly fainted in front of the tomb.
âFamily Head!â
âDad⊠Dad, whatâs wrong?â
âSis, call an ambulance! We need to carry Dad down the mountain!â
Baling Mountain was lush and green, with the spring rain softly falling and clouds hanging low. As Gu Yang and Feng Jue descended the mountain path, they heard the distant sound of an ambulance. They soon saw the Feng family members helping Feng Xuan into the vehicle.
People nearby whispered among themselves.
âIsnât that the head of the Feng family? Why did he faint while visiting the tomb?â
âFainting in a cemetery? Tsk tsk, did he see a ghost?â
Feng Jue glanced at the ambulance and the Feng familyâs car, clicking his tongue. âHe really canât handle a scare, can he?â
Gu Yang smiled, âWith a guilty conscience like his, of course he canât.â
Feng Jue looked down at the girl beside him, the coldness in his eyes melting away, replaced by a warm, spring-like smile. âSister, were you helping me vent my anger just now?â
Gu Yang nodded, âMm, just collecting a little interest for you.â
A slight smile curled at the corners of Feng Jueâs lips. The gloominess in his expression faded, and he seemed to brighten, radiant and at ease.
Sister was so good.
