Chapter 75: There is no place for me in your persistence
Chen Ming was dumbfounded after hearing this, and after a while he asked: "What's going on with the guards in the haunted house?"
"Any of our hotels are haunted houses. The so-called haunted house guards are actually ghost people who protect the safety of the haunted house."
"An Ran is, and so are the four sisters A, B, D, and D. They are all guards of the haunted house."
"Why did Ivan want me to say something about removing the guards from the Enron Haunted Mansion?"
"Because you are the owner of the haunted house."
"Me? I'm the owner of the haunted house?"
"Yes, you and I are both the owners of the haunted house."
"I am the owner of the haunted house, why don't I know?"
"Because I didn't tell you that you are just an ordinary person. If I told you, it would make it impossible for you to live an ordinary life."
"Then what you originally told me about your Luo family being from Xunyang is true?"
"Yes, Xunyang people are just a folk saying. The Luo family is actually the guardians of the haunted house."
"We use our own unique way to find haunted houses and manage them through contracts to allow the haunted houses to grow faster."
"What exactly is a haunted house? Is it a house or a person?"
"No one can tell what a haunted house is. You can think of it as a house with intelligence."
"Ghost energy is not pure and contains a lot of harmful substances. If too much is absorbed, it will harm the body, which means the whole body will suffer from ulcers."
"This is what ordinary people say is the cause of ghost energy invasion, but haunted houses can help ghosts absorb harmful substances from their bodies."
"At the same time, it also releases pure ghost energy for the ghosts to absorb. This is the function of the haunted house."
"This does not conflict with what I originally told you. It is just changed to a way that you can understand with scientific thinking."
"Then why am I the owner of a haunted house? Why did I become its owner?"
"Every haunted house is looking for its owner from the moment it's born."
"And only the haunted house itself knows what kind of person can become its owner."
"Only when our Luo family helps the haunted house find its owner can we truly reach a contract with the haunted house to manage the haunted house."
"So historically the owner of the haunted house was either the daughter-in-law of the Luo family or the son-in-law of the Luo family, so that the whole family could jointly manage the haunted house."
"This time the haunted house has chosen you as its owner, but you are not a ghost, but an ordinary person."
"How can ghosts and ordinary people live together?"
Chen Ming wondered: "Why can't ordinary people and ghosts live together?"
"As I said just now, ordinary people and ghosts are people from two different worlds."
"Let's not talk about the difference in life between ordinary people and ghosts. Even the life span is very different."
"Most ordinary people only have a lifespan of a few decades, while ghosts have a lifespan of more than five hundred years."
"If you can become a demon, you will have a lifespan of thousands of years."
"The life of an ordinary person is just a moment in the life of a ghost. A short-lived love is destined to have a sad ending."
Chen Ming's heart was filled with painful sadness. It turned out that Luo Wen only gave him a status.
But the reason why he didn't even agree to propose to her was that we were from two different worlds.
Chen Ming suddenly stared at Luo Wen and asked, "Do you love me?"
Luo Wen looked at Chen Ming without saying anything.
Chen Ming seemed to already know the answer, and asked without giving up: "Have you ever loved me?"
Luo Wen still looked at Chen Ming, not knowing how to answer.
Chen Ming let out a long breath and said: "I understand, I am the tool that allows you to sign a contract with the haunted house. There is no love between us at all!"
Luo Wen looked at Chen Ming. She knew this was unfair to Chen Ming, but it was true.
Even if she really loves Chen Ming, she will not marry him.
Because of her reason, she did not dare to exchange this short-lived love for hundreds or even thousands of years of loneliness.
Seeing the tenderness in Chen Ming's eyes gradually turn cold, Luo Wen said in a panic: "I love you, but not you now. Maybe one day you will understand."
Chen Ming smiled, his smile full of coldness. He had heard this sentence before, but it turned out that he didn't understand it.
Now he seems to understand a little bit. In fact, he still doesn't understand, but it doesn't matter anymore.
"Thank you for telling me the truth. Thank you very much."
Chen Ming's words were very gentle and sincere. But to Luo Wen's ears, they were strange and shuddering.
Luo Wen knew Chen Ming too well, and it was because she knew Chen Ming so well that she understood the meaning behind Chen Ming's words.
"Chen Ming, listen to me. Although you are just an ordinary person now, maybe one day you will become a ghost. Maybe everything will be different."
Chen Ming acted like a normal person and said calmly: "It's different, it's really different. I'm really grateful that you told me so early."
"You didn't tell me until I got older. We are people from different worlds, and we should never have crossed the line from the beginning."
"I'd better get out of here!"
Luo Wen grabbed Chen Ming's hand and said, "The situation has changed now. It's very dangerous outside. You can't leave here yet."
"You and I jointly manage the haunted house. We will get through the difficulties together and we can live here. Please stay!"
Chen Ming gently took away Luo Wen's hand.
"I know that you are very capable of running a hotel, and I admire your ability, means and charm very much."
"I admire you even more for your persistence in not giving up until you reach your goal. But there is no place for me in your persistence."
"Although I, Chenming, am just a street bun seller, I also have my own life."
"It's dangerous out there? But where could it be more dangerous than this?"
Chen Ming turned around and walked out resolutely.
Luo Wen stood there like a puppet. She was mentally and physically exhausted. Multiple blows broke her defenses, and finally she fell on the bed.
Luo Wen's spirit collapsed. As the patriarch, Luo Wen was responsible for the revitalization of the family.
Although there are only five women in the Luo family's population, Luo Wen also became the first person in the history of the Luo family to let the haunted house claim its owner.
As long as nothing goes wrong, the Luo family will grow and prosper together because of her relationship with the haunted house.
When the haunted house evolves into a devil house, Luo Wen will become a devil.
When the Devil's House evolves into the Temple of Gods and Demons, Luo Wen will become a god, and then the Luo family will also rise with Luo Wen.
She knows that this road is difficult, but it is the only way that ghosts are most likely to succeed in evolving into gods.
She put all her efforts into the haunted house.
Now that the evolution of the haunted house is blocked, all her hard work was wasted in an instant.
It was because there was no hope ahead that she told Chen Ming the truth without reservation when Chen Ming asked.
This was what she owed Chen Ming, so there was no need to hide anything at this time.
Luo Wen knew Chen Ming's reaction very well. She felt that although the truth was cruel, it was kinder than letting Chen Ming be deceived.
When Chen Ming turned around and left, Luo Wen's heart still hurt.
The two of them have been together for so long, and it is impossible to say that they don't have any feelings at all.
It was this small emotional blow that was the last straw that broke the camel's back.
Her heart, whose dreams had been shattered long ago, was instantly shattered.
She is no longer the ghost queen who remains unchanged despite the landslide and remains silent after the tsunami, but a weak and injured woman.
