Chapter 160 Where did this old man come from? Throw him out!
"How did you find him? Are you sure it's him?" Zhuang Sheng asked carefully, as if afraid his sister would be disappointed.
Zhuang Xiaomeng pointed at Lin Sui: "It was calculated by this master, it can't be wrong!"
Although she didn't know Lin Sui, judging from the fact that she wasn't angry even after being misunderstood, Lin Sui must be a good person and wouldn't lie to her.
Zhuang Sheng frowned upon hearing this, thinking that his sister had been deceived.
However, when his eyes swept across Lin Sui's face, his heart sank.
He doesn't usually watch variety shows, but many of his colleagues at the law firm do.
Since "Seven Ghost Stories" became a hit online, the name he hears most often every day is Lin Sui.
I was also fortunate enough to see promotional videos about her, as well as her highlight scenes of catching ghosts and exorcising evil spirits.
As for Lin Sui, he wanted to question her, but he couldn't bring himself to do so against his conscience.
Especially after Zhuang Xiaomeng accurately gave the person's address.
Finally, Zhuang Sheng forced a smile and said, "Then after we take Dou Dou home, I'll go with you."
"No need, brother. Aren't you going to see the client later?"
"The client had an emergency, so we rescheduled the contract."
Zhuang Xiaomeng had no doubts.
Anyway, over the years, her older brother has always been with her in the search.
With her older brother around, she felt more at ease.
Zhuang Sheng concealed his emotions well, but unfortunately, he couldn't fool the group of sharp-eyed villains.
Several people gathered around Lin Sui, whispering among themselves.
Yu Cinian: "Orthopedics?"
Lu Xiang: "Can we drink this?"
Si Xingran: "You're going to eat this? Aren't you afraid of breaking your teeth?"
Tangxi: "I'm shipping them!"
Li Ye: "Eating...what? Sunflower seeds?"
Upon hearing this, the other four people turned their heads in unison: Where did this old man come from? Get him out of here!
Li Ye: "..."
Lin Sui was both amused and exasperated.
Surprisingly, the villain, who is keen on stirring up trouble and gossiping, is also quite knowledgeable about shipping couples.
I accidentally wandered into a 2G network in Liye.
Lin Sui glanced at Zhuang Sheng's face.
Just as I was about to tell them directly whether or not they could have sex, the production team's dedicated phone rang. It was a text message from Director Wu.
Master, could you please ask Ms. Zhuang if she would mind if we arranged a photographer for her?
The reason was that netizens were curious about what would happen next and strongly requested the program team to follow up with a live broadcast.
Zhuang Xiaomeng didn't mind.
She was just afraid that the person in her dreams would mind.
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Lin Sui explained. “The camera won’t capture him without his permission.”
If they are filmed, their faces will be blurred, like Jiang Ping and Zhuang Xiaomeng, only their voices are shown on screen.
Zhuang Xiaomeng then agreed.
Soon a cameraman arrived carrying his equipment and followed the Zhuang family home.
Before the third person was ready to arrive, Lin Sui and the others started watching the live stream on their phones.
Today is a day off, and Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang, as well as Mr. and Mrs. Zhuang's second brother, are all here.
Upon hearing Zhuang Xiaomeng say that the person had been found, the Zhuang family members all subconsciously glanced at Zhuang Sheng.
Seeing that he remained silent like a saw-off gourd, Zhuang's mother sighed and shook her head helplessly.
After all, it was their youngest daughter's long-cherished wish, and despite their disappointment in their eldest son, the couple still smiled as they saw her off and wished her good luck.
Whether it was a joke played by God or not, the neighborhood where the dreamer lived was very close to the Zhuang family's, only a ten-minute drive away. Zhuang Xiaomeng had even been there more than once.
She stood there stunned for a long time before finally mustering the courage to knock on the door.
The man who opened the door wore black-rimmed glasses and comfortable loungewear; he looked clean and neat.
Zhuang Xiaomeng stared at him blankly: "Zhao Yang..."
Zhao Yang is the name of the person in her dreams.
Coincidentally, the man's name is also Zhao Yang, but it's the Yang of sunshine.
"You know me?" Zhao Yang was both surprised and suspicious. He had no recollection of this unfamiliar woman in front of him.
“I, I am…” Zhuang Xiaomeng stammered.
When the person she had been searching for for years suddenly appeared, her mind went blank, and she didn't know what to say.
Zhuang Sheng stepped forward at the right moment: "Hello, we are community workers. Since the broadcast of 'Seven Ghost Stories', many people have been worried that there are ghosts around them. Therefore, we specially asked Master Lin for talismans to ensure the safety of all residents."
As he spoke, he subtly nudged Zhuang Xiaomeng's arm.
Zhuang Xiaomeng quickly took out the yellow talisman from her pocket.
It was given to her by Lin Sui before they left.
Not everyone can dream of their past life, so the answer she wanted to know was something Zhao Yang in this life was destined to be unable to give her.
This requires external assistance.
As long as she and Zhao Yang simultaneously hold the talisman, the part of Zhao Yang's past life memories can be activated in her mind.
She could also confirm his identity and see if he was the person she was looking for in her dreams.
Unfortunately, Zhao Yang was very wary, fearing he might encounter some strange cult, and refused to accept the talisman.
This is normal.
Zhuang Sheng had anticipated this and promptly made a video call to Lin Sui.
Although Lin Sui is not yet a household name, he has already tested Zhao Yang by using the show's name and the name of Master Lin.
Zhao Yang clearly knows about this program and Master Lin, which makes things easier.
Lin Sui was speechless when she received the call.
She can actually use it like that?
More money, absolutely more money!
Sure enough, upon seeing Lin Sui, Zhao Yang lowered his guard by half and accepted the talisman with some skepticism.
In an instant, Zhao Yang's memories surfaced before Zhuang Xiaomeng's eyes.
She could clearly feel Zhao Yang's excitement and joy when he first saw her.
He was overwhelmed with excitement and love when he heard her say that she was willing to marry him.
On their wedding night, he lifted her red veil, and in his amazement at her beauty, he had only one thought in his mind: I want to spend the rest of my life loving her.
Later, war broke out everywhere.
Their house was completely looted.
All a lowly accountant could do was try his best to protect his wife from harm.
After a long and arduous journey, he gave her all the remaining food he had, even though he hadn't eaten it himself, he lied and said he had.
But he was too incompetent; he still couldn't protect her, and she caught a cold and fell seriously ill.
He had no money for medicine, let alone a doctor, so he had no choice but to kneel down and beg.
He kowtowed until his head bled before finally managing to get a packet of medicine.
He held it in his arms like a precious treasure, eager to get back quickly to brew it for her, but he ran into some thugs who thought he had hidden money.
In chaotic times, even good people can turn into evil spirits, let alone these people.
Fearing that the hard-won medicine would be ruined, he explained while desperately protecting it.
What he got in return was a beating.
Sticks and fists rained down on him. He tried to fight back, but was met with even more brutal beatings.
Finally, a blow to the head came crashing down, and blood gushed out.
His eyes widened, he collapsed, utterly lifeless.
Even in death, he held the medicine tightly to his chest...
All the events of my past life seem like a dream.
Zhuang Xiaomeng silently wept, her face streaked with tears.
Zhao Yang was startled: "What's wrong with you?"
Zhuang Xiaomeng looked at him with teary eyes, wanting to say something, but her throat was choked with sobs and she couldn't make a sound.
Just then, a woman's voice came from inside the house: "Honey, who's outside?"
