Min family.
As soon as he returned home, Min Ziqiong's father couldn't help but laugh to the sky.
He really couldn't control his mood!
Promotion, wealth, and the death of his wife – he never expected that the things middle-aged men most dreamed of would all happen to him!
He was about to become a shareholder in a brand new company, this was promotion;
Selling the Mirage Realm formula in his hands would be enough to earn him billions, this was wealth;
As for his wife's death, need I say more?
The nagging wife who had always suppressed and controlled him was finally gone, and he was finally free.
This made him even happier than the previous two things!
"Marriage is a trap, and I've stepped into it once. I will never step into it twice."
"When I get the money, I'll find a college student! If I don't like her, I'll replace her directly! I'll be a groom every year and be happy every day! Isn't this much better than getting married?"
"Only a fool would willingly step into the trap of marriage!"
Min Ziqiong's father was extremely happy.
However, he couldn't share such good fortune with outsiders, which made him feel a bit stifled.
He could only go to the storage room to get a bottle of old wine he had been reluctant to drink, raise his glass to the bright moon, and drink it all down as if he had someone to confide in.
Soon, Min Ziqiong's father was completely drunk.
He didn't even notice when Min Ziqiong returned home and placed his mother's "corpse" back in the bedroom.
Of course, Min Ziqiong, who knew the truth, deliberately did not alarm his father.
After putting his mother down, he quietly left.
It wasn't until midnight.
Min Ziqiong's father hummed a little tune and stumbled to his feet, heading towards the house.
He had finished the entire bottle of old wine by himself. The wine had a high proof, and after so many years, its potency had mellowed.
So Min Ziqiong's father was completely drunk at this moment, and he couldn't even find the living room door. He bumped into the wall three times before stumbling through the door by chance.
"You damn thing, you dare to block me!"
"When I get rich, I'll replace you! No! I'll not only replace you, but I'll replace the whole house!"
"I'll move to Shouyang Mountain, buy a small villa, and hire an eighteen-year-old girl, hahahaha, just thinking about it is wonderful!"
"After so many years, I'm finally free from that nagging old hag! God, you finally have a conscience and are willing to grant me one wish!"
Min Ziqiong's father grumbled as he, by instinct, walked towards the bedroom.
Thump!
As soon as he entered the bedroom, the alcohol hit him, and he fell onto the bed.
At the moment he fell, he seemed to feel something beneath him.
He couldn't help but mumble, "Who the hell threw garbage on my bed?"
"Get out of my way... Scram!"
Min Ziqiong's father casually pushed the thing beneath him off the bed with all his might.
There was a thud.
The ground trembled slightly.
It seemed the thing was not light.
Min Ziqiong's father was startled and opened his eyes to look at the thing on the ground.
The next second, he suddenly jumped off the bed: "Wife... Wife..."
But he quickly reacted: "No, you're already dead! I don't have to be afraid of you anymore!"
"But weren't you lying in the villa on the mountaintop? Why are you suddenly back here?"
"I understand, it must be that little bastard Ying Chen's doing! Ying Chen was afraid that I wouldn't acknowledge the money, so he secretly brought your body back overnight while I was drunk!"
"Hmph, you little bastard, you're just judging others by your own petty standards! How could I not acknowledge it? I actually want to thank him for ending my unfortunate late life!"
"Forget it, I'm happy today, and I don't want to bother with it. I'll just leave the body here for now and deal with it tomorrow after I sober up!"
"At worst, I'll say I woke up and suddenly found my wife had died. I'll find a cremation vehicle and take her straight to the crematorium. Who would know the truth?"
"I'm such a genius!"
Min Ziqiong's father praised his own cleverness and fell into a deep sleep again.
Unbeknownst to him, Min Ziqiong's mother's body on the ground had quietly opened its eyes.
Her limbs began to twitch slightly, showing signs of coming back to life!
Time ticked by.
Min Ziqiong's mother had gone from only being able to move her limbs to being able to move her entire body!
Her expression was sinister. She slowly sat up from the ground.
She stared at Min Ziqiong's father on the bed for a long time, her eyes filled with icy rage and hatred.
Suddenly, she nudged Min Ziqiong's father: "Get up, it's time to pee."
As if by reflex, Min Ziqiong's father immediately got out of bed and walked towards the bathroom with his eyes closed.
"Get up and pee, get up and pee..."
Whoosh.
Soon, the sound of flushing water came from the bathroom.
A moment later, Min Ziqiong's father pushed open the bathroom door and walked back into the bedroom.
But this time, he bumped into something with a thud.
He thought he had bumped into the door again, as before, and impatiently pushed at it while cursing, "There's nothing in this house that doesn't bully me! Damn it, now that your master is dead, let's see how you can act so arrogant! Tomorrow morning, I'll tear you all down and use you for firewood!"
After speaking, Min Ziqiong's father walked around the obstacle and continued forward.
However, after taking just one step, he suddenly realized something was wrong and jolted awake.
The door was hard, but the object he had just bumped into was soft!
This meant he had not bumped into the door!
But if it wasn't the door, what could it be?
What in the house was soft?
Min Ziqiong's father suddenly thought of a possibility.
His eyes widened, his pupils dilated, and cold sweat broke out on his back!
"Impossible, impossible!"
"This is a material world, how could something like that happen?"
"It must be that I'm drunk and hallucinating."
Min Ziqiong's father comforted himself and slowly turned his head to look at what he had just bumped into.
But the moment he looked, his soul was instantly scattered!
To his rear left, a face was staring at him expressionlessly!
It was none other than his wife!
"Ghost!"
"Ghost!"
Min Ziqiong's father turned and ran.
However, due to his extreme fear, his body had gone soft, and he couldn't muster any strength.
He could only writhe on the ground like a puddle of mud, inch by inch.
Min Ziqiong's mother, on the other hand, walked slowly towards Min Ziqiong's father, step by step.
Her sinister face, her cold eyes, and her outstretched pale fingers sent a chill from Min Ziqiong's father's spine to the crown of his head.
He finally understood why Min Ziqiong's mother's body had appeared in the bedroom!
It wasn't sent back by Ying Chen!
It was Min Ziqiong's mother who had risen from the dead!
She had come back for revenge!
But he couldn't understand why Min Ziqiong's mother wasn't seeking revenge on Ying Chen first, but on him?
Or maybe... Ying Chen and Min Ziqiong were already dead!
And now only he was left?
Thinking of this, Min Ziqiong's father felt a chill run down his spine, and his hair stood on end.
"No, I can't die!"
"My good life hasn't even begun yet!"
"Old woman, look closely, I'm not a bad person, I'm your husband! If I die, there will be no one to burn paper money for you during festivals! Without paper money, you'll be bullied down there!"
"Old woman, we were husband and wife for a hundred days. After so many years of marriage, there's no reason for us to turn from benefactor to enemy!"
"Old woman, please let me go! In the future, tell me what you like in your dreams. No matter what it is, I'll satisfy you and burn it for you, okay?"
