After Yu Rubing finished speaking, Du Xiaolan's expression was very surprised. I had already guessed this result, because the post I found online was very clear, and the man who came to the hotel with Yu Rubing did not appear in the surveillance video at all.
It is fully proven that the spirit cannot be captured by ordinary things, and that man is definitely not human.
Looking at Yu Rubing again, I inexplicably started to feel a bit sympathetic for her.
Du Xiaolan no longer shouted to go out and instead asked with a sympathetic look, "Then why did you come to this hotel with him?"
"I don't know either," Yu Rubing shook her head and said, "It's been three years, and every time I think of that incident, it feels like it was just yesterday. That day, I was inexplicably approached by someone, and then followed him to this hotel. During this period, it felt like I was lost and confused as if I had lost my mind."
I hurriedly asked, "What did the person who killed you look like?"
Yu Rubing furrowed her eyebrows, shook her head, and said, "I don't remember, his appearance is very blurry in my eyes, but I vaguely remember that day, he was wearing a black short-sleeved shirt."
"Black short-sleeved shirt!" These four words almost came out as a gasp.
This young man wearing a black short-sleeved shirt has appeared so many times, and the last time he even tried to kill me. What kind of role is he playing in all this?
Feeling uneasy, I didn't know what to say anymore. Having gone through so much, it seems unrelated, but every single thing is connected to this young man, inexplicably tying everything together.
Since I promised to help Yu Rubing with this request, I definitely will not stand idly by. After inquiring about the ritual, Yu Rubing admitted that she appeared before me because she wanted me to help her seek justice.
Because of work the next day, I didn't ask further, and after finishing work, I promised to help her with her situation.
After Yu Rubing disappeared, Du Xiaolan was adamant about not staying in the room. When I wasn't paying attention, she hurriedly ran out.
The truth of the matter had already been revealed, and I wasn't so afraid anymore. Lying on the bed, thinking about what to do next, I turned off the lights and went to sleep.
Early the next morning, client Fei Xuemin sent a car to take us to the wedding venue.
The weather was very gloomy, as if it could pour rain at any moment.
The layout of the hotel was already prepared, and Du Xiaolan was taken to the bride's residence. I sat on a hotel chair, propping my head with my hand, thinking about Yu Rubing's situation.
Out of the corner of my eye, through the window, I saw someone outside staring at me intently.
I abruptly lifted my head and looked outside, seeing a woman in a white dress standing across the street. In the instant our eyes met, she hurriedly turned and walked away into the distance.
Ignoring the woman, after finishing reading the two speeches that Fei Xuemin had given me, the deafening sound of firecrackers had already erupted outside.
Fei Xuemin, dressed in a sharp suit, got out of the car, carrying the bride's wedding dress and walking towards the hotel. His gaze swept around, and under the awning not far away, the woman in white appeared again, but this time she wasn't looking at me, but at Fei Xuemin.
I was the host, so when the new couple appeared, I had to go out to meet them.
As I walked out of the hotel, I took a close look at the woman in white and realized that she was the woman who got caught in the rain the day before yesterday.
I didn't dare to think too much about this matter, after saying some words of congratulations, I invited the couple inside.
Although the bride had makeup on, it was still obvious that she was a beauty. Her figure was also impeccable, comparable to Du Xiaolan’s.
Once the relatives and friends came in, I began the wedding. The woman in white outside did not come in, but stood quietly by the window.
During the toasting, I pulled Du Xiaolan to my side and gestured to her, asking, "Take a look at the woman outside the window."
Du Xiaolan turned to look and then looked back at me, asking in confusion, "Mingyang, what woman outside?"
I looked disdainfully at her, pointed in the woman's direction and said, "She's right there, didn’t you see her?"
"You're crazy, there's no one there," she replied, rolling her eyes at me, then went to the bride.
I was extremely puzzled, and looked at the woman outside the window again. Du Xiaolan couldn't see her, which meant that the woman was not human at all.
This thought flashed through my mind. My heart raced as I looked at the woman again, only to find that she had already turned to look at me at some point, lightly laughing and nodding.
She was a ghost, so appearing at Fei Xuemin's wedding was definitely not that simple.
A bad premonition rose in my heart. I kept an eye on the woman's actions while absentmindedly conducting the wedding ceremony.
After what seemed like an endless three hours, Fei Xuemin's wedding was finally finished without any doubts, and the woman was still outside, showing no intention of harming anyone.
After seeing off the bride and groom as well as Du Xiaolan, I was left alone. I then placed the microphone on the table and walked out of the hotel to where the woman was.
She looked slightly surprised to see me and asked shyly, "You can see me?"
I nodded, smiled, and said, "Do you know them?"
The woman nodded and said, "I know them. If it wasn’t for that accident, the person wearing the wedding dress today would have been me."
I hurriedly asked, "Are you his ex-girlfriend?"
"You could say that, but we didn't break up. I died in an accident," the woman sighed, smoothed her hair, and continued, "I'm really happy to see him have his own family today."
"What's your name?" I asked. I felt that Fei Xuemin must know about this. There was a woman still concerned about him.
The woman smiled shyly and said, "He Tingyun."
I praised, "That's a very poetic name."
She smiled bitterly, "Unfortunately, I'm already dead now. Even if it's a poetic name, it's just an alias."
Her words, so disillusioned, left me not knowing what to say. Weighing a empty water bottle on the table, I asked, "By the way, a few days ago I saw you standing in the rain outside the hotel. What were you looking at?"
She looked me straight in the eyes for a moment, then suddenly said, "I was looking at you."
"Me?" I was also stunned. We were complete strangers, there was no need for that.
She responded, "In the room you are staying in, there is a very powerful spirit. I want to protect you, but I know I am no match for her, so I can only stand downstairs. As long as you're safe, I can have peace of mind."
I was intrigued and sat up straight, asking, "Why do you care so much about me?"
