Chapter Nine Extradition Messengers
Author: Xiao Tianyi
Kuang Tianyou and Ma Xiaoling drove back to Jiajia Building. Neither of them felt any excitement along the way. Successfully winning over Lin Hao should have been a joyous occasion, but the thought of Lin Hao's background prevented them from feeling happy. The journey was spent in silence.
Back at Jiajia Building, they saw Zhenzhen, Fusheng, and Zhengzhong anxiously waiting for them. Only when they saw them appear did Wang Zhenzhen and the others breathe a sigh of relief.
Wang Zhenzhen first asked, "Xiaoling, how did it go? Did you catch Lin Hao's ghost?"
"I'm telling you, Zhenzhen, you don't trust me anymore." Ma Xiaoling deliberately put on a stern face and pretended to be angry.
Wang Zhenzhen quickly explained, "Xiaoling, that's not what I meant. I was just concerned about Liu Ting's safety."
"Alright, we're best friends, there's no next life for us, why would I be angry with you? I was just teasing you."
Wang Zhenzhen was relieved. "By the way, Xiaoling, how is Lin Hao's ghost?"
Ma Xiaoling pulled out the lucky star. "It's right here." Wang Zhenzhen continued, "Actually, Lin Hao is also very pitiful. He was forced to kidnap Liu Ting to save his son. I never expected it to turn out like this. Xiaoling, what will happen to Lin Hao's ghost?"
"He's currently a spirit, which can't exist forever; he needs to be reincarnated as soon as possible. But his resentment is so strong right now, how can he be reincarnated? My magical power is insufficient to dispel his resentment. There's nothing I can do but try my best."
After being inside for a while, Kuang Tianyou suddenly asked, "If you can dispel his resentment, can you help him reincarnate?"
“Theoretically, it’s possible, but how easy is it to dispel his resentment?” Ma Xiaoling sighed. Kuang Tianyou smiled mysteriously, “Perhaps I have a way. I’m going to find someone now. Wait for me.” With that, he pushed open the door and hurriedly disappeared into the night.
About an hour later, Kuang Tianyou returned, bringing with him an elderly woman and a child. "They are...?" Wan Zhenzhen asked, puzzled. Kuang Tianyou replied, "They are Lin Hao's mother and child. While investigating the case, I heard that Lin Hao is a filial son. He is very devoted to his mother and loves his son dearly. I think Lin Hao did all this for his son's illness; perhaps they can ease Lin Hao's resentment."
Ma Xiaoling pondered for a moment, then said, "That's one way. Resentment breeds resentment; only by untying the knot in his heart can we dispel his anger." She took out the lucky star and placed it on the table. "You two talk to him."
Kuang Tianyou had already explained the situation to Grandma Lin when he brought her here. Grandma Lin was extremely grateful to Kuang Tianyou. He had not only saved her grandson, but also gone to great lengths to help her son.
"Hao'er. Hao'er, can you hear me? It's your mother, Hao'er," the old woman cried out in a sorrowful voice. The lucky star began to stir restlessly, bouncing on the table.
"Mom, Mom, are you here? I can't see you."
Kuang Tianyou gave Ma Xiaoling a look, and Ma Xiaoling pointed to the lucky star, and Lin Hao appeared in front of everyone. Old Mrs. Lin stepped forward to hug him, but missed.
"Mom, are you alright? Where's Jiajun?"
"Jiajun is here. Look, he's much better now."
"Mom, what are you doing here? Did they kidnap you? They're all bad people. They're bullying me because Liu Jiang is rich. Mom, don't be afraid, I'm here."
Old Mrs. Lin raised her hand to slap Lin Hao, but of course, she missed. "You good-for-nothing! You're going to die, but have you ever thought about what will happen to Jiajun and me? If it weren't for Mr. Kuang giving us 200,000 yuan, Jiajun would just be waiting to die. Mr. Kuang is such a good man. He specially came to us so that you could be reborn into a better world. How can you say such things about him? Look, Jiajun's illness has improved a lot, and he can get out of bed now."
Lin Hao then noticed his son standing beside him. His complexion was indeed much better than before. "Jiajun, come here, let Dad take a good look at you."
"Dad, Grandma said you shouldn't resent others anymore. My illness is being treated, and the doctor said I'll get better soon. Please don't be a bad person, okay?"
"Okay, Daddy promises you, Daddy won't be angry anymore, Daddy will be a good person." Slowly, the black mist around Lin Hao faded, and the whole person—no, the whole ghost—became kinder. He knelt down before Kuang Tianyou. "Mr. Kuang, thank you for saving my son." Kuang Tianyou quickly helped him up. "Mr. Lin, it's nothing. After all, life is the most precious thing. What does money matter?" As he spoke, he glanced at Ma Xiaoling. Ma Xiaoling understood his meaning and was secretly angry. "That stinking cop dares to make veiled accusations; he'll make you pay sooner or later." She hadn't even noticed that Kuang Tianyou had helped Lin Hao up.
Kuang Tianyou said, "Mr. Lin, we are now separated by life and death. You should reincarnate as soon as possible."
