Chapter 204: A Unique Family Heirloom

“What are your orders, Brother?” Shi Ran’s voice rose from the other end of the phone.

Shi Beiyu’s forehead creased as he lowered his voice. “Find me someone who can communicate with the dead now. A reliable one. I don’t want anyone to know about this.”

Upon hearing this, Shi Ran froze. He wondered if his ears were failing him.

“You want me to find a… scammer?”

“I want someone who can really talk to the dead! Not some con artist that mystifies ghosts!”

Shi Ran was taken aback.

Shi Beiyu was not someone who believed in all these things, and he had never talked to a scammer or exorcist in all his life. Why was he suddenly asking Shi Ran to find…

As if he had thought about something, Shi Ran widened his eyes in shock…

“It’s Big Uncle’s death anniversary today, Brother. He… Is he back to haunt you?”

Shi Beiyu instantly frowned. “What nonsense are you talking about? If I tell you to do something, hurry up and get it done!”

“Okay, okay! I got it.”

After hanging up the phone, Shi Beiyu looked at how soundly asleep Mu Siyin was with worry written all over his face.

She did not faint even though he had aimed for her neck. However, the opposite had happened the moment Uncle Zhong opened the door and walked in.

Moreover, Mu Siyun seemed to have shrieked in complete terror. Was it because… Was Uncle Zhong wearing something that she was afraid of?

His brain was filled with too many questions and mysteries at that moment.

It had been 12 years since the car accident. Why did Mu Siyun appear after all this time?

Just as he was in the midst of his thoughts, Uncle Zhong’s voice rose from the other end of the door.

“Little Beibei, what’s going on with you and Little Siyin? Why are you still in the room after so long?”

Uncle Zhong was utterly speechless. Why was it so hard to get them to eat?

Shi Beiyu instantly came back to his senses. Then, he stood up and walked out of the room.

“Siyin doesn’t feel like eating, Uncle Zhong. Take away the dishes.”

Uncle Zhong did not like what he heard. “How can that be? She’s sick. It won’t be good for her body if she takes the pills without a meal.”

“She really doesn’t want to eat. Just take the food away.”

“You… Look at the both of you. Well, at least you should eat, right? You’ve been pretty busy today.”

“I don’t want to eat too.” How could he have the appetite to eat now?

“That won’t do, right?” The creases on Uncle Zhong’s old face deepened.

However, Shi Beiyu decided to change the topic. “Are you wearing any treasures on you, Uncle Zhong?”

Upon hearing this, Uncle Zhong immediately raised an eyebrow. “What do you want to do, you little fella? Don’t get any ideas on my baby!”

Shi Beiyu was speechless. “I’m not planning on doing anything to your baby. I just want to have a look at it.”

At this, Uncle Zhong became proud. “You won’t even show me the gift you gave Little Siyin today, so I won’t show you my baby either!”

“I’ll show you the gift tomorrow if you show me now.”

Uncle Zhong immediately turned excited. “Really?”

“Yeah.”

After getting Shi Beiyu’s word, Uncle Zhong instantly lifted his hand to pull out the jade hanging around his neck.

“Do you see it? Look how transparent and bright it looks. Look at how clear and beautiful its texture is. Do you know which dynasty it came from? This is my precious heirloom passed down by my ancestors.”

However, Shi Beiyu only had eyes for the jade’s pattern. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “Is this… Guan Yin?”

Uncle Zhong immediately placed his palms together as he looked at Shi Beiyu and said, “Her name is Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva in full. The necklace has been consecrated before, so it’s very protective.”

Shi Beiyu finally understood. Mu Siyun was probably scared away by the Guan Yin hanging on Uncle Zhong’s neck.

“Your family heirloom is very unique, Uncle Zhong.”

Uncle Zhong snorted lightly. “Don’t you dare make any plans on my baby, you little fella!”
