946 I will never regret it



However, Song Yan knew that she couldn't just exorcise Lady Yan without Xi Sang's permission. If she was to deal with this ghost and something happened to Xi Sang instead then it will be twice as much trouble.

Thus, she turned to look at Father and Mother Xi who seemed to be on the verge of agreeing because of all the threats that their son was handing out and then said in a calm voice, " Though I have nothing against Lady Yan, I will like to remind you all that the relationship between a ghost and a human can never be as beautiful as you are thinking. Ghosts who remain on the surface of the earth are bound to have some sort of intentions or grudges." 

She then turned to look at Yan Wuying and casually added, " Lest something happens, it will be too late for you to do anything." 

The only reason Song Yan wasted her time and effort to persuade Old Master Xi and his wife was because they were Assistant Xi's relatives, if they were not related to her in any way then she wouldn't have cared about the life and death of this stupid young man who couldn't see past his own desires. 

" It will be better if you just let this ghost be exorcised," she told Master Xi and his wife. " This is the only way for your son to get better, even if he can no longer have any children. At least he will be alive?" 

Beside her, Assistant Xi also tried to persuade his uncle and aunt, with a complicated look on his face, he said, " Madam Song is right, this is not something that one would consider normal, what will you do if something happens to Sang'er? Getting married to a ghost? Even a fool wouldn't do something like this!"

He was trying to tell his uncle and aunt that the ghost must have done something to Xi Sang which was why he was doing things as stupid as these. 

Just as Uncle Xi was going to agree, Xi Sang suddenly stood up from his ground and then rushed towards the window as if he was going to jump from the third floor of his house.

" Ah Sang!" 

" Son!" 

Bother Uncle Xi and Aunt Xi were terrified upon seeing their son take such a drastic step. They immediately rushed to stop him, but just as Xi Sang reached the window, he was pulled by Assistant Xi even so he continued to struggle and then announced loudly, 

" I don't care! If something happens to Lady Yan, then I will kill myself as well! No matter how much you try to stop me, I will kill myself. Without her, I cannot live!" 

When Uncle Xi and his wife saw just how obsessed their son was with the female ghost, they were stunned. They did not expect that their son would be this desperate to save that female ghost!

" I will remind you for the last time, short-lived pain is much better than long-term pain," Song Yan crossed her arms and then looked at the scene in front of her with cold eyes. 

She did not feel touched or panicked by what Xi Sang did, instead she only felt that he was being too stupid and courting death. A part of her was so annoyed that she wanted to leave without doing anything but when she thought of how Assistant Xi had worked hard for their family, she stopped herself. 

Beside her, Shen Yu took advantage of the situation and then hurriedly said, " I can see that your son is really sincere, why don't I hand him a yang-reviving talisman? That way even if he stays with this ghost, he will not lose his life." She then turned to look at Song Yan and commented, " The ghost does not look harmful. There is no dark aura around her, from the looks of it she seems to be someone who died because of natural causes and does not hold any grudge."

" Miss is right, I died because I was suffering from tuberculosis," stated Yan Wuying with a soft smile filled with melancholy. " There were no medicines for my disease back then which was why I died. I had no other regrets other than staying alive for such a small time." 

" See?" Shen Yu said to Song Yan in particular. " The ghost is harmless, we don't need to be so cruel as to wrench her apart from someone who loves her. However, I don't think whether or not someone like you can understand something like this."

Her words caused the Xi family of three to look at Song Yan with a weird gaze because the way Shen Yu spoke it sounded like she was blaming Song Yan for coming in between her and Gu Chenyi. 

" Heh," Song Yan sneered as she blinked her eyes and then turned to look at Shen Yu properly before saying in a soft voice,  " I can say the same for you, Miss Shen. Are you sure that you understand the situation properly? Because if something goes haywire, I will not be taking responsibility together with you. If master asks, you are the only one who will be held responsible, understand ?" 

Her words caused Shen Yu to stiffen but then she glanced at the female ghost, she did not sense any malicious intentions coming from her and sighed in relief. Most probably this female ghost was one of those wandering ghosts and had little to do with the ghosts who practised evil arts, thus she calmly looked at Song Yan and said, " You don't have to worry about something like this, I will surely take responsibility if it calls for it." 

Song Yan sneered and then said with a cool expression, " I hope you will be able to keep up with this attitude in the future as well." She then turned to look at the Xi family and said, " From now what happens, it will entirely be Miss Shen's responsibility. I hope that you will not call me if something happens because I might …not be available to help you anymore." 

As she spoke she glanced at Yan Wuying heavily.
