Chapter 182 - 180: Let Her Soul Scatter (Third Update)
Fang Yue was drenched in cold sweat. He leaned forward, sat up straight, and grasped Yun Qi’s small hand. "Little one, can you help Uncle?"
"Of course I can help, but Uncle has to be honest," Yun Qi withdrew his hand, "A year ago, was it your mother who killed your wife?"
The atmosphere was silent for a moment. Fang Yue clearly didn’t want to bring up the topic, but under Yun Qi’s intense gaze, he finally sighed, "Yes, it was all my fault for not stopping them in time. I thought they were just having a verbal spat, but I didn’t expect... That day I just got off work and saw them arguing. I was very tired and just said a few words carelessly, not expecting my mom to turn around and grab a knife to... Ah! I’m ashamed and regretful, I’m a useless man!"
He pulled his hair, pounding his head vigorously, looking extremely distressed.
Yun Qiuhong sighed. Although he felt angry at Fang Yue, the matter had already happened, and it was clear that Fang Yue lived in pain too.
His gaze shifted, seeing Yun Qi’s calm, indifferent, and even slightly cold eyes.
He couldn’t understand why a child would have such an indifferent demeanor in the face of others’ pain, as if he could not feel the hardships of the human world.
"So, what decision will you make, Uncle? Now that your wife’s ghost is here for revenge, what do you plan to do?" the soft, child-like voice said calmly, without any fluctuation.
"I..." Fang Yue lifted his head, his face stained with tears, "I don’t know what to do. She wants revenge, and she should. In the year we were married, I brought her no happiness, only endless quarrels. If she hadn’t met me, it would have been better. She’s in such good condition, so beautiful, she would have met a good man to truly cherish her..."
Seeing Fang Yue immerse in pain, Yun Qiuhong advised him: "The matter has happened. Excessive self-blame is useless. Your wife’s soul has turned into an Evil Ghost and wants to take your life. The urgent thing is to stop her from haunting you."
