Chapter 746: Another Ghost Encounter with Afu (C)

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Before Yang Ming confirmed Chen Dazhuang’s true intentions, he still looked at Chen Dazhuang with cold eyes.
Seeing Chen Mengyan not talking, Chen Dazhuang thought Mengyan also doubted his identity and was even more angry with Yang Ming by her side. Just now, because of Yang Ming’s questioning, Chen Dazhuang was mad. This is a matter of our family. How is it related to you?
However, after all, Chen Dazhuang was in another’s house. He had to lower his head and say patiently, “Mengyan, you won’t doubt your uncle, right? This is my ID card. Also, when your father and your mother got married, this is the photo we took back in our hometown. See. This is me… This photo won’t be fake, right?”
After Chen Mengyan glanced at the release letter, she no longer doubted Chen Dazhuang’s identity. When she saw her parents’ wedding photo, she was more certain that this person was her Second Uncle who was in prison.
Chen Mengyan sighed out of relief and asked, “Second Uncle, are you looking for my dad?”
“Yes… but… Looking for anyone is the same. Looking for you is the same…” Chen Dazhuang nodded quickly.
“Looking for me? What do you need from me?” Chen Mengyan was somewhat inexplicable. When she was one year old, Second Uncle was sentenced to prison. Ever since then, they broke out of contact. It was possible to say that he was here to find her father, but it was quite impossible to look for Mengyan.
“That… I just got out of jail. I have no place to go. I have no money in my hands…” Chen Dazhuang’s original position in the company wasn’t low. He was the person who had quite some power. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be exposed to so much money. However, with the time spent in prison, he did not have his original spirit and arrogance. Although he still had his pride, in order to survive, he had to bow his head to his niece.
After a long time, Yang Ming was able to understand it. Is this person here to borrow money!? He said in dissatisfaction abruptly, “You just got out of jail. You should go home. Uncle Chen and Aunty Chen aren’t here… You should come again the next day.”
Yang Ming knew that Chen Mengyan wasn’t the kind of person who liked to reject others, so Yang Ming had to be the bad guy here. However, Yang Ming wasn’t without human feelings. The key issue was that Chen Fei was lying in the hospital. It wasn’t alright for Chen Mengyan to decide to lend the money or not, right?
Chen Mengyan actually wanted to refuse. After all, although this was Mengyan’s own nominal uncle, there was no blood relationship basically. Her parents were from the Chen Village, where almost everyone in the village was surnamed Chen. In the context of being a relative, every house would have some form of connection. No one knew the origin of this uncle, Chen Dazhuang.
“You…” Chen Dazhuang was a little angry. He wanted to say that this had nothing to do with Yang Ming, but he didn’t say it. If Chen Dazhuang didn’t come to the lowest point of his life, he wouldn’t come to borrow money. Chen Dazhuang calmed down his feelings with difficulty and said nicely, “My wife and I got divorced. She ran away with my child along with another man… I have no place to go now… My niece, can you lend your second uncle some money? I will definitely return it to you in the future when your second uncle finds a job in a few days…”
“This…” Chen Mengyan was very kind. When she heard what Chen Dazhuang said this in pitifully, she immediately became sympathetic.
Yang Ming also frowned. This person didn’t look like he was lying. From his tone and expression, Chen Dazhuang seemed to be completely forced to do so.
“How much?” asked Yang Ming.
” Ah ?” Chen Dazhuang sighed. Yang Ming was strongly opposed to giving money. Now, Yang Ming asked Chen Dazhung how much he wanted. This made Chen Dazhuang unable to react for a long time before he spoke, “Three… three hundred yuan… Is that ok?”
On the first day Chen Dazhuang was released from prison, he only discovered that the outside world had undergone tremendous changes, especially the prices. It was much more expensive than before. One bowl of soft bean curd that was previously thirty cents was now two yuan. The biscuits which were five cents initially were now eight cents.
Therefore, Chen Dazhuang’s minimum standard price for each meal had become three yuan. It would be ten yuan a day. After Chen Dazhuang counted, even if he slept at the train station or passenger station every night, he would need about three hundred yuan a month.
Three hundred yuan? Yang Ming was shocked. Yang Ming thought he would be unreserved and ask for ten thousand yuan. Yang Ming didn’t expect that he only wanted three hundred yuan. It seemed that he only came here to borrow money because he had nowhere to go.
Yang Ming took out his wallet and counted a thousand yuan from it. He handed it to Chen Dazhuang’s hand. “Take it. Rent a cheaper house and find a job.”
Chen Dazhuang looked at the banknotes Yang Ming handed him, and he was dumbfounded for a while. He didn’t expect his niece’s boyfriend to be so generous. Once committed, he gave a thousand yuan! As a matter of fact, Chen Dazhuang was sentenced to jail for ten years because of twenty thousand yuan. The fact that he was able to come out earlier was because of his hard work in jail which resulted in the reduction of his sentence. Of course, there was also the reason of Chen Fei’s reputation. As Chen Fei’s position rose up, the warden also took care of Chen Dazhuang.
“Thank you. Thank you…” Chen Dazao said quickly.
“We can help you only once. We can’t help you for a lifetime. In the future, you have to rely on yourself.” Yang Ming waved his hand and said, “You don’t need to return the money in a hurry. The current policy is much better than in the past. You can do some small business like opening a stall in the night market…”
“Well, I must work hard to stop troubling others…” Chen Dazhuang nodded heavily. He didn’t expect Yang Ming to be so young and yet his words were quite reasonable. His previous bad impression also dissipated.
After Chen Dazhuang left, Chen Mengyan took out the key and opened the door. Then she entered the house with Yang Ming.
“Yang Ming, don’t talk to my mother about this so that she isn’t distracted by other things.” Chen Mengyan hesitated for a while.
She didn’t know whether it was alright for Yang Ming to lend money to Chen Dazhuang, so she didn’t want to talk about this with her family for the time being.
“This kind of little thing doesn’t matter.” Yang Ming smiled and didn’t care about the one thousand yuan. The most important thing was that Chen Dazhuang could take the right path. Yang Ming thought that Chen Dazhuang’s matter was already over, but Yang Ming didn’t expect that he would see Chen Dazhuang again in the future.
” En …” Chen Mengyan nodded. Looking at her empty home, it was a little quiet.
“Then, I will go back first. You should rest well. I will pick you up tomorrow morning…” Yang Ming looked at the time. It was not early, so he said this.
” Ah …” Chen Mengyan stood up and looked at Yang Ming. “Can you… not go?”
“Not go?” Yang Ming looked at Chen Mengyan. Could it be a hint? However, Chen Mengyan’s family had such an incident. Does she still have other thoughts?
Seeing Yang Ming’s flirtatious gaze, Chen Mengyan blushed and explained, “Just… simply accompany me… Don’t think about nonsense…”
” Hehe , I didn’t think about any nonsense.” Yang Ming shook his head and replied sternly.
……
Xia Xue drove the car and looked at Xiao Zhao, who was sitting in the front passenger seat with a pale face. Xia Xue sighed helplessly. She didn’t believe in ghosts, but Xiao Zhao wasn’t from the police academy. He was just a driver.
“Xiao Zhao, what you saw shouldn’t be a ghost, but someone who deliberately pretended to be a ghost.” Xia Xue comforted him.
“Sister Xia, although I also told myself not to think about it that way, the situation at the time was too scary!” Xiao Zhao took a breath and said, “Half of the man’s brain was gone…”
Xiao Zhao described the appearance of the thing he saw in detail. Even though Xia Xue was daring, she also had goosebumps when she listened to it. Just as Xiao Xue just wanted to speak and persuade him, her phone started to ring.
Looking at the caller ID above, it was the number of the police service. It should be the people from the police internal system.
“Hello, this is Xia Xue from the Criminal Investigation Team.” Xia Xue picked up the phone.
“Deputy Captain Xia, I’m Zhao Dongxing of the traffic police team’s west detachment!” said the person on the phone.
“Comrade Zhao, what’s the matter that you’re looking for me about?” asked Xia Xue.
“A traffic accident occurred on Shatong Road in the west of the city…” said Zhao Dongxing.
“Traffic accident? Comrade Zhao, why are you telling this to me?” Xia Xue was responsible for criminal investigations and not responsible for traffic.
“The situation is a bit strange. It is similar to Captain Chen’s car accident just now…” Zhao Dongxing hesitated. “According to a taxi driver at the back, he saw a ghost… I think this should be a criminal case…”
“What!?” Xia Xue was shocked and said immediately, “You wait for me. I’m coming over. Shatong Road, right?”
Hanging up the phone, Xia Xue quickly turned around and headed for Shatong Road in the west of the city. Xiao Zhao’s expression on the car was a little excited. “Sister Xia, you see? I didn’t lie…”
At night, the car was quiet, so Xiao Zhao heard Zhao Dongxing’s words clearly.
Xia Xue nodded and looked a little dignified. If the car accident there was also caused by this, then this criminal was really rampant. He just committed a crime in the south of the city, and then he went to the west to commit more crimes.
The scene of the accident had been cordoned off. The taxi driver who witnessed it hadn’t left yet.
The scene was quite miserable. A heavy-duty truck rolled into the ditch on the side of the road. The driver died on the spot. Behind the truck was a taxi. The taxi driver’s reaction was still vigilant, so he managed to escape.
According to the taxi driver, he saw the ghost at the time. Xia Xue found the taxi driver and asked in detail about the situation at that time. As a result, the image of the ghost described by the taxi driver was exactly the same as what Xiao Zhao saw!
With that, Xiao Zhao didn’t have hallucinations but actually saw something…
Xia Xue couldn’t make the decision. She made a phone call directly to Chief Wang…
……
Yang Ming held Chen Mengyan and squeezed into the small bed in her room.
“Just before, why did you want to go back to Tavern Heaven on Earth?” Yang Ming knew that Chen Mengyan wasn’t asleep yet and he suddenly asked her.
