Shi Beiyu frowned.
Master Hu continued, “Mu Siyun will naturally wake up when the right conditions are met and the opportunity has arrived. However, the memories that she remembers from her past will only be her obsessions.”
“How do we help Mu Siyun move on to the afterlife?”
Master Hu sighed faintly. “If Mu Siyun has dealt with her grievances and resolved her obsessions, I can swiftly perform a rite and help her move on. But now…
“Her soul is incomplete, so we won’t be able to find out the truth from her even if we wanted to. We can only wait.”
Shi Beiyu’s frown deepened. “How do we plan on waiting?”
“Come to my place tomorrow, and bring back a string of beads. This will help Mu Siyun repair her remnant soul. As long as she can regain her consciousness, we will find out what’s her reason for lingering here and help her move on.”
“How long will that take?”
As Master Hu looked at Bei Yu’s worried expression, he could not help but said, “Don’t worry. It won’t take too long.”
Shi Beiyu’s worries lessened slightly. He asked Master Hu, “Then, will Mu Siyin get hurt…?”
“They are both sisters. Mu Siyun wouldn’t cause much harm to your companion. However, her body would weaken, so you’d have to pay more attention to that.”
Shi Beiyu was still feeling troubled. “Then… When will Mu Siyun show up? She wouldn’t appear every time once it’s past midnight, right?”
Master Hu seemed to know what Shi Beiyu was worried about, and he smiled. “Put on the beads that I’ll be giving her. She won’t show up unless I call for her, so don’t worry. She won’t bother you and your companion while you’re having a happy time~”
Shi Beiyu felt embarrassed.
Although Master Hu said that everything was alright, there was one more thing that made Shi Beiyu feel extremely uneasy.
“Sir, are you sure Mu Siyun only woke up yesterday and she has never appeared before this?”
Shi Beiyu remembered that night when he was with Mu Siyin. The color of her hair may not have changed, but the way she held onto him and apologized endlessly was exactly the same as Mu Siyun.
She also spouted some nonsense that he did not want to think about.
He was afraid that he…
Master Hu smirked as he watched Shi Beiyu’s troubled face stiffened. Master Hu patted Shi Beiyu on the shoulder and teased, “You can rest assured. Just trust me on this. You did not sleep with the wrong person. I wouldn’t be wrong about this!”
For the first time in his life, Shi Beiyu felt ashamed yet relieved at the same time. The embarrassed Shi Beiyu murmured, “I have allowed myself to be ridiculed by you, sir.”
“We’ve all been young, I understand!”
“Thank you, sir. I am grateful for your help. Is there anything that you would like? I’d like to repay my gratitude to you.”
Master Hu laughed as he patted Shi Beiyu on the shoulder and said, “Now you’re talking!”
Shi Beiyu was speechless.
Master Hu grinned at Shi Beiyu and said, “Apart from worshiping the God of Land, I only like to play chess. You need to accompany me for a few rounds of chess when you have the time!”
Shi Beiyu smiled helplessly upon hearing that. “Coincidentally, I would like to ask you for some advice as well since your mastery in chess is so advanced.”
Master Hu grinned from ear to ear.
“Okay, it’s settled then!”
Shi Beiyu personally escorted Master Hu to the door. He watched as Shi Ran drove off with Master Hu before returning to the building.
Mu Siyin’s hair had regained its normal color when he returned to the room.
Shi Beiyu looked at the sleeping Mu Siyin and sighed deeply.
Mu Siyun mentioned that there was someone who had harmed her. That would mean the car accident was definitely planned. It was unclear whether it was her or his father who was targeted. Nevertheless, he had to find someone to investigate the conspiracy behind the incident.
Early the next morning, Mu Siyin woke up in a familiar embrace.
Her eyes squinted slightly, and she frowned as she felt a little pain in her head.
“Do you feel unwell?” A deep alluring voice sounded in her ears, making her feel a little more awake.
