My God of Wealth is a Short-lived Ghost

Chapter 317 Let’s Cherish the Present

At this time, in the northern mountains of Zhao

Zhao Jinghua did not let Wan Sutong follow him but chose to come alone. He raised his hand and transformed a puppet that was already wearing clothes and shoes and socks and placed it under a fruit tree. Then, without any hesitation, he walked into the center of the Bagua formation.

He slowly closed his eyes for a while and opened them again. His temperament seemed to have changed into a different person, young and lazy.

Zhao Sinian looked down at himself in confusion, then turned his head to look at the puppet gradually emerging in human form under the fruit tree. The puppet looked more and more like Zhao Jinghua, until it looked exactly like Zhao Jinghua.

After a while, Zhao Jinghua slowly opened his eyes, and what came into his sight was Zhao Sinian, who was still standing there, staring at him with a look of surprise.

Seeing this, Zhao Jinghua lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Go down the mountain along the path. Your mother is waiting for you at the foot of the mountain."

Zhao Sinian came to his senses after hearing this. He walked to Zhao Jinghua with gratitude in his eyes and stretched out his hand to Zhao Jinghua, apparently wanting to pull him up.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Jinghua waved his hand and said calmly, "No need, go down the mountain, don't let your mother wait anxiously."

Zhao Sinian said "oh" and turned to leave, but he turned back halfway to look at Zhao Jinghua who was sitting under the tree. After hesitating for a moment, he turned back and said, "May you and the emperor's sister-in-law be together forever and live together forever."

Zhao Jinghua was stunned at first, then nodded with joy in his eyes and said "Thank you".

At this time, in Fengming Tower

Wan Sutong was holding Feng Ming's arm and shaking it. "My dear brother, just accompany me. You are free anyway, and my aunt has my mother and Jing Huai to accompany her. Can you accompany me?"

Feng Ming took a sip of Coke and then shook his head. "I'm not going. I don't know your roommate. Why should I go with you?" He put the cup back on the table.

Seeing this, Wan Sutong worked very hard to fill up Feng Ming's cola bottle. "My dear brother~"

Feng Ming curled his lips and then waved his hand while picking up the cup. "Don't try that. It's useless even if you shout out all the flowers today."

After hearing this, Wan Sutong hugged Feng Ming and said, "But I'm afraid I can't protect my best friend by myself."

Feng Ming perked up immediately when she heard her mention Ye Mianwan, but she had just said it so decisively, and agreeing now would seem like she was putting her lover before her sister, so she coughed lightly and said in a serious tone, "If you can't even protect people, why are you going to Liu Country?"

Wan Sutong rubbed Feng Ming's arm with her face. "Good brother, I can actually go by myself, but wouldn't that make me feel lonely? My best friend is with me but I'm afraid I can't protect her. Can you just think of it as accompanying me? Besides, she's your future wife, isn't she? Good brother."

Feng Ming was overjoyed at this moment, but pretended to be hesitant on his face. "This... Doesn't Wu Yisa know how to split himself? Why don't you go find him? It's so tiring to ride in a carriage. I won't go. It would be better to lie down for a while."

Wan Sutong puffed up her cheeks and then sighed, "No, good brother, he is not as skilled as you, you are the best."

Feng Ming's mouth corners seemed to curl up when he heard this, and his eyes were full of pride, and his mouth corners were almost stretched to the back of his ears. "Okay, I'll go with you reluctantly, just as if we were going out for fun."

When Wan Sutong heard this, he jumped up excitedly and said, "Great!"

At this time, on the north mountain outside the city

Zhao Jinghua was sitting under a fruit tree, staring into the distance with lifeless eyes, just like a puppet.

0533 suddenly appeared beside him in his true form. Seeing that Zhao Jinghua seemed not to see him, he waved his hand in front of him with confusion, "Host's husband, what's wrong with you? What are you thinking about?"

Zhao Jinghua finally came back to his senses, turned his head to look at 0533, then raised his hand and touched its head lovingly. "Nothing, why are you here? Did Su Tong ask you to come?"

0533 Hehe, then said with a serious face, "No, I thought the time was about right, so I came to call you." At this point, 0533 sat down next to Zhao Jinghua without any hesitation. "According to my scan analysis, you are now experiencing four emotions: unwillingness, confusion, sadness, and entanglement."

At this point, 0533 quickly added, "Don't look at me because I look young. I'm older than you. Tell me, what's wrong with you?"

Zhao Jinghua was amused by 0533's little adult appearance and laughed softly.

0533 Seeing his fake smile, I couldn't help but frown, and then showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, "Are you confused about the relationship with my host?"

Zhao Jinghua was silent for a long time and finally nodded. He lowered his eyes and said in a very complicated tone, "I guess so, because I know that everything that happened here... is just a dream for Su Tong after all."

0533 Hearing this, he looked at Zhao Jinghua in shock, "You actually guessed it! Then why are you so unwilling? Is it because you think that your efforts in this relationship have not been rewarded?"

Zhao Jinghua raised his hand and gently stroked 0533's head, but his eyes looked towards the location of the Bagua formation, recalling the day when he and Wan Sutong set up the formation together. "Since I was willing to give, I didn't think about asking for anything in return. I was not unwilling because I regretted returning to Sutong again, or because I was afraid that she would forget me, but why I couldn't be from the same world as her."

At this point, Zhao Jinghua laughed at himself and spoke again, "Can I also split time and space to go to her world, even if it is just a dream like hers, instead of occupying and depriving others of their lives just to be with her?"

Zhao Jinghua retracted his gaze, and looked at 0533 with tenderness and helplessness. "You also know that I am not a good person, but there is karma in this world. If I do this, I will suffer retribution in the end. It will not only be me who suffers... but also Su Tong. I don't want her to be implicated because of my selfishness."

0533 After hearing this, he slowly lowered his head and fell into silence, and sighed heavily for a long time.

“Then cherish the present moment”

Zhao Jinghua thought for a moment, then nodded with relief and said, "Let's go to Wujin Country."

At this time, in the Yuwen Palace

Yuwen Songyue had just finished his morning court session and was sitting behind the desk in the imperial study. He looked at the memorial in his hand and tried to move his aching shoulders. "Hiss~" He immediately thought of Li Xu, so he raised his head and called out "Xiao Xuzi".

Li Xu heard the call and immediately walked in, holding a floating sink in his hand and bowing respectfully, "What do you want, Your Majesty?"

The more Yuwen Songyue looked at Li Xu, the more he liked him. He couldn't take his eyes off him. Li Xu saw that he hadn't said anything for a long time, so he asked, "Your Majesty?"

Yuwen Songyue came back to his senses immediately, quickly turned his head and coughed lightly, while commanding, "My shoulders hurt, come and rub them for me."

Li Xu hurriedly responded after hearing this, put the floating thing on the ground, walked carefully behind Yuwen Songyue, put his hands on his shoulders and gently kneaded them.

Yuwen Songyue felt the gentle force on his shoulder and couldn't help but narrow his eyes and said softly, "Very good."

Li Xu was slightly stunned and then chuckled, "Your Majesty, you are too kind."

Yuwen Songyue laughed when he heard her laugh. "After the morning court session, you can massage my shoulders for me."

Li Xu hesitated for a moment after hearing this, "But my hands are not as soft as a woman's. What if I hurt Your Majesty by using too much force?"

Yuwen Songyue frowned slightly when he heard this, but relaxed his brows after a moment. "If you don't want to, forget it."

Li Xu heard the displeasure in Yuwen Songyue's tone, so he knelt down quickly and said, "That's not what I meant. I hope Your Majesty will calm down."

Yuwen Songyue sighed and turned around to help Li Xu up. "You, when did I say I was angry?"
