The little fox's pupils gradually brightened as the ghost Bai Ronglan spoke.
But then, her heart skipped a beat.
Because the ghost Bai Ronglan looked serious and added, "But!"
There was a 'but'? Ronglan nervously moved her paw and asked, "But what? Are you going to change your wish?"
"Yes. Before I came, I thought about canceling the wish. I didn't have any other wishes for you to fulfill. But just now, I found a new one."
"A new wish?" Ronglan tried to recall if anything special had happened just now, but to her, everything seemed normal.
The ghost Bai Ronglan didn't let the little fox keep guessing. She straightforwardly told her, "Yes, my new wish is to have you take me for a big meal."
This new wish of hers was inspired by the bottle of cola just now.
She had always been a Buddhist, having few desires. But when she tasted the cola just now, she suddenly remembered when she was still human. The most tangled thing she thought about every day might be what to have for lunch and dinner. Throughout the day, it seemed that she was happiest when eating.
She wanted to eat.
"That's easy!" Ronglan's heart finally settled down. Her round fox eyes curved into a smile as she asked, "What do you want to eat? What's your favorite food? I'll take you to eat it as soon as I get back into my body!"
She was in the form of a fox now, which was inconvenient for strolling on the street. Otherwise, she could carry the bank card in her mouth and take the ghost Bai Ronglan to eat delicious food.
"Seafood is probably my favorite." Since it was a wish, the ghost Bai Ronglan didn't plan to be polite to the little fox. After letting go of the little fox's paw, she counted on her fingers as she recalled her favorite foods, "Hairy crabs, king crabs, and coral trouts. I like all of them."
Ronglan calmly nodded when she heard 'hairy crabs', but her heart skipped a beat when she heard 'king crabs', and she felt even worse when she heard 'coral trouts'.
She hugged her fluffy fox tail with her two front paws, looking weak, helpless, and pitiful. With tears in her eyes, she said, "There's no problem with these foods, but I don't have any money now. It'll take some time before I can afford to treat you."
She hadn't been at the fortune - telling house recently and didn't know if they had made any money. She was really poor now.
Seeing the little fox's pitiful look, the ghost Bai Ronglan covered her mouth and smiled cutely, "It's okay. I can wait. It's fine if you treat me after you have money."
"Okay! I'll definitely take you to the best restaurant in Kyoto to eat seafood when I have money." Ronglan patted her chest and promised.
The matter of the wish was over. Ronglan suddenly remembered the first thing the ghost Bai Ronglan said when she came here. "By the way, you said just now that Han Xiaoshuang was let out by Chu Chuan after he bribed the doctor in the mental hospital. Do you know how Chu Chuan reacted after he learned that Han Xiaoshuang was arrested?"
She was really eager to see Chu Chuan angry but helpless.
The ghost Bai Ronglan picked up the cola can again. Hearing the little fox's curious tone, she shook her head and stared deeply at the little fox. "The question you asked is not important. The more urgent thing now is -"
"Little fox, do you know that you're glowing?"
Glowing? Ronglan looked down at the tail she was holding and carefully examined her paw. "No, I don't see myself glowing. Can only you see it?"
"Can only I see it? Why don't you call out your little cat and ask if it can see you glowing?" The ghost Bai Ronglan said calmly as she took a sip of the cola.
She always felt that the little fox glowing might be a good thing because she felt that the attraction of her original body to her seemed to be getting smaller. Did that mean that the little fox could go back?
Ronglan firmly shook her head. "No, it'll scare Little Amber. But this should not be a bad thing. Si Mo promised to ensure my life safety. If I'm in danger, he should have come to save me by now."
But Si Mo didn't come, which meant it wasn't a big deal.
Ronglan convinced herself with this perfect reason. She was just thinking of finding a mirror to see if she could see herself glowing through it. However, the next second, she felt a sharp pain in the back of her head. She didn't even have time to shout 'help' before she passed out on the spot.
From the ghost Bai Ronglan's perspective, she didn't see the little fox fainting. She only saw the little fox glowing with golden light suddenly disappear. At the same time when the little fox disappeared in front of her, she completely lost the feeling of the suction from her original body.
She let out a sigh of relief, thinking that the little fox had gone back. Since the little fox was gone, she didn't stay in this place that didn't belong to her. She left with the half - full cola in her hand, planning to go to the hospital later to see how the little fox was adapting after returning to her body.

"Ronglan, you've never opened your heart to me. You don't love me, and I don't love you either. For me, people I don't love are all the same. So whether it's you or Bai Rongran, it doesn't matter. I won't protect anyone."
"Lanlan, you think they're your blood - related relatives, but in my eyes, they're just human traffickers who stole my child. Do you understand? Why do you ask me to get along well with them for your sake! I've already not pursued them for your sake! But it's impossible for me to get along well with them!"
"Lanlan, you really disappoint Dad."
"Ronglan, sister, although I hate you very much, I never thought of killing you before. But now you're in the way of my revenge. I'm sorry."
"Lanlan, Dad admits that I did everything. Please stop investigating, okay? I'm sorry to you and your mother. Go and see your mother. She misses you very much. Her last words before she died were that she wanted to see you."
"Your name is Ronglan? You're really not a sensible child. You've lived in a wealthy family for so many years, but you haven't gained anything. Do the Bai family know that you're not their child? So they never treated you sincerely?"
One after another, cold, disappointed, sad, and disgusting voices echoed in her mind. These voices woven into a huge net. Ronglan felt that she was inexplicably entangled by these voices and couldn't break free. These voices seemed to drag her into the mire, but she could clearly see the light.
Just work a little harder. As long as she worked a little harder, maybe she could break free from the entanglement of these voices.
She saw the light shining through in front of her. She couldn't be dragged into the mire. She had to walk towards the place with light.
These voices that entangled her had nothing to do with her. Her brother, parents, and her sister Rongran must be waiting for her in the place with light.
