Xu Yan led Shen Chun into the house and poured her a cup of tea before asking, “Do you need me to prepare anything?”

Shen Chun drank the water in her cup in one go. The full moon had already appeared. “There’s no need. I brought everything over.”

She took out a red candle from her bag and spread out the yellow paper with the incantation on it on the ground before letting Xu Yan lie on it.

Then, she placed the red candles around Xu Yan and lit them.

In an instant, the entire room was lit up by candlelight.

After Shen Chun sat cross-legged in front of Xu Yan, she closed her eyes and formed seals with her hands. A golden light was drawn out from the top of Shen Chun’s head and entered Xu Yan’s consciousness.

She chanted softly, “There’s no door to hell. Hades, open the way!”

After a beam of golden light dispersed the fog, Xu Yan was first stunned when she saw where she was. Then, she followed Shen Chun’s instructions and began to look for his life lamp on the bridge.

After she found his life lamp, she called out his name softly, “Xia Qing.”

After a while, a man appeared on the Life Lantern Bridge and said in a low voice, “Yan, you’re finally here.”

As Xu Yan looked at his back, she was so overjoyed and excited that she was speechless.

Because she felt that no matter what she said, she couldn’t express her longing and love for him for the past three years.

The man slowly turned around, but he wasn’t the person Xu Yan had been thinking about day and night.

Xu Yan’s smile froze on her face, and her pupils dilated in disbelief as she questioned loudly, “Why is it you?! Where’s Xia Qing?”

The man walked towards Xu Yan affectionately and said, “Xiao Yan, it’s me. I’m Xia Qing.”

Xu Yan retreated. “You’re not Xia Qing.”

The man, who was still very gentle at first, was instantly angered by Xu Yan’s words. “How can I not be Xia Qing? I’m Xia Qing! I’m Xia Qing, your childhood sweetheart! The person you met after that was just stealing my identity and scamming your money. He was a fraud!”

Xu Yan covered her ears. She couldn’t believe what Xia Qing said, nor did she want to believe it. She shook her head and shouted in despair, as if she had lost her mind, “No! No, you’re not!”

Shen Chun was meditating outside to maintain her spell. Sensing Xu Yan’s intense emotions, she sent a voice transmission to her. “Xu Yan! Don’t lose your calm.”

Xu Yan, who was inside, didn’t listen to Shen Chun at all and kept muttering the same sentence.

The man didn’t care about Xu Yan’s current state at all and continued to explain the reason. “To think that I’ve been his buddy for so many years. I was about to return to the country to meet you five years ago, but I didn’t expect to get into a car accident on the way to the airport, causing me to be paralyzed for a year and a half. At that time, I didn’t have the courage to meet you, so I let him replace me and meet you in the country. I thought that he was really just using my identity to help me take care of you. I didn’t expect him to fall in love with you!”

These words made Xu Yan calm down a little. As she curled up on the ground, memories of the past appeared in her mind.

Familiar faces were replaced by the man in front of her.

Xu Yan wanted to stop him and she shouted in disbelief, “No! I like him, not Xia Qing! Not you!”

The man smiled evilly and said, “But the birthday you wrote is mine. I was also the one who entered your dream. I’ve been by your side all these years, while he left so decisively. Why are you still thinking about him?”

As he spoke, Xu Yan’s gaze became complicated, and she stopped refuting and denying everything. Instead, she sat there in a daze.

Shen Chun closed her eyes with a frown and her forehead was covered in sweat.

From the looks of it, Xu Yan probably wouldn’t be able to move on.

Fate couldn’t be forced. This was the first reason Shen Chun hesitated to help.

However, this situation was what Shen Chun was most worried about.

This situation was uncontrollable. It was easy for souls to lose their minds after entering the ghost path and Xia Qing had been traumatized by his words.

If this continued, the consequences would be unimaginable!
