Lord Chu’s Wife is Wild

“How is it?”

The King of Hades stood up and asked Chu Sihan.

Chu Sihan nodded slightly. “I’ve seen her.”

Perhaps because he knew that Lu Sheng was nearby, his dispirited mood dissipated a lot.

The King of Hades nodded. “Han Er, you’ve finished your love tribulation. What do you plan to do next?”

“After I’m done with the human world, I’ll return to the Netherworld.”

Then, he looked at Lu Zhou and asked, “Uncle-Master Lu, are you returning to your original world?”

Lu Zhou nodded. “Of course.”

“Sheng Sheng… won’t forget me, right?” Chu Sihan was a bit worried.

“That might be the case.” Lu Zhou smiled faintly. “However, the possibility of her forgetting you is low, but the possibility of you forgetting her is high.”

Chu Sihan frowned. “What do you mean?”

“Because other than reincarnation, you can’t reach that world. Of course, there’s another method.”

“What method?”

Lu Zhou smiled faintly and said, “You’ll be the King of Hades.”

Chu Sihan said, “…Then, I’ll work hard to be reborn.”

Unless his father’s soul dissipated, he would never be the King of Hades.

The King of Hades was also helpless.

If possible, he was naturally willing to give the position of the King of Hades to his son. However, in this way, he would have to disappear from this world.

Lu Zhou said lightly, “Okay, go and prepare. The Lu family should be here tonight.”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly. “I still have guests over there, so I’ll go back first.”

The few of them nodded slightly.

“Brother Chu is back!”

Shi Yi and the rest were surprised to see Chu Sihan.

They had thought that it would take a long time for Chu Sihan to return. They did not expect him to return so soon.

“Brother Chu, the dead cannot be revived. My condolences!”

Qi Dongjing walked forward and patted his shoulder to comfort him.

Chu Sihan nodded silently with a calm expression.

However, the calmer he was, the more uneasy the others felt.

He gestured for everyone to sit down and said lightly, “I’ll be busy tonight. I’m afraid I can’t take care of you.”

Shi Yi said, “Brother Chu, don’t worry. We never treat ourselves as outsiders.”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly. “That’s good.”

Fu Sisi wiped her tears and sniffed. She looked at Chu Sihan and said, “Cousin, if you want to cry, cry. We won’t laugh at you!”

Chu Sihan’s actions made people panic.

Unexpectedly, Chu Sihan only smiled faintly. “So what if I cry? She won’t wake up again.”

His words were quite sad. In addition to his sad expression, everyone present felt that he was putting up a tough front.

Fu Sisi sobbed and said, “The dead can’t be revived, but crying is better than holding it in.”

Chu Sihan shook his head slightly and lowered his eyes without saying anything.

If he had not met Lu Sheng’s soul, he might have really cried.

However, now that he knew that she was not dead yet, everything was fine.

It was evening when the people from the Chu Mansion and the Lu family arrived.

At that moment, the corpse had already been sent back to the hall. A funeral banner was also hung outside the Chu Mansion.

Chu Yun had prepared these items when Chu Sihan was unconscious.

At night, Lu Zhou released Lu Sheng.

No matter what, she had feelings for the Lu family. Letting her come out to see everyone for the last time was also a one-sided farewell.

Chu Sihan changed into his mourning clothes and knelt in front of the mourning hall to burn paper money.

Although the corpse was already buried, it was not covered yet. In addition, it was cold, so the corpse would not stink too quickly.

Lu Ran and the rest initially thought that Lu Sheng would be fine.

However, when they saw the person lying in the coffin with her eyes closed, they finally collapsed.

Even Lu Jiang and Lu Xin were sobbing beside the coffin.

Mdm Zhao almost fainted. Leya and He Yan held her.

“My poor child. She was fine a while ago. Why did she leave just like that?!”

Mdm Xu patted the coffin and wept loudly.

Leya and He Yan held Mdm Zhao and wept.

Lu Ran did not say anything. He just lay beside the coffin and wept like Lu Jiang and Lu Xin.

Matriarch Chu, Mdm Chu, and the rest who entered later were silent.

Even Mdm Jiang, who had something against Mdm Chu and Chu Sihan, could not bear to see them like this.

Chu Siyun knelt beside Chu Sihan and burned paper money silently with him.

After Chu Hongzhong, Chu Hongqing, and the rest offered incense, they went out to entertain the guests.

Lu Sheng, who was standing at the side, silently wiped her tears.

Chu Sihan looked up at her. It was unknown if he thought of the future or something else, but his eyes reddened.

“You gave me those things early because you expected this day to come?”

Lu Ran wiped his tears and asked softly.

Chu Sihan looked at him and sighed secretly.

“No wonder Brother kept saying that Lu Sheng was acting strangely some time ago.”

He Lai asked Chu Sihan, “Lord, was Lu Sheng seriously ill?”

Chu Sihan shook his head silently and did not say anything.

He did not know how to explain this to the Lu family.

Lu Sheng lowered her eyes and thought for a while. Then, she turned around and left. After a while, a servant walked in.

“Lord, this is a letter Miss Lu wrote to Young Master Lu when she was alive.”

Chu Sihan looked suspiciously at the servant. When he saw the person standing behind her, he immediately understood.

He received the letter and passed it to Lu Ran, who was staring at the letter in his hand.

Lu Ran received it hurriedly and opened it impatiently.

The letter wrote:

“Brother, when you receive this letter, I might have been gone.”

“You might not believe me if I tell you this, but it’s true. I’ve dreamed of dying many times, and I think that will become reality soon.”

“I don’t know when my death will be, but I feel like it’s close.”

“Life and death are common. Don’t be too sad. Help me persuade Grandma and the rest not to be too sad. You have to take good care of the Lu family, as well as Grandpa and Grandma. Manage the Lu family’s restaurant well.”

The letter ended there. Lu Ran blinked and tears flowed down his cheeks, drenching the letter.

After He Zhang, He Qin, and the rest saw it, they could not help but sigh faintly.

He Zhang said in a low voice, “Lu Sheng, don’t worry. We’ll make the Lu family’s restaurant well.”

“Han Er, go and drink some water. Leave this to me.”

Mdm Chu came over and persuaded Chu Sihan in a low voice.

Unexpectedly, he shook his head.

Lu Sheng squatted beside him and accompanied him silently.

“Ah Han, I’ll wait for you in my original world. Remember to find me.”

Chu Sihan looked at her sideways and nodded imperceptibly.

“Then… I’ll get going.”

Lu Sheng stood up and pursed her lips.

He suddenly looked up at her and said, “You have to wait for me.”

She smiled and left the mourning hall.

Chu Sihan watched her until she left before retracting his gaze silently.

At that moment, everyone in the mourning hall looked at him suspiciously.

“Lord, are… are you alright?”

Lu Ran wiped his tears and asked silently.

Was he too sad that he became a fool?

Chu Sihan was slightly stunned. Only then did he realize that he had spoken to Lu Sheng in a hurry just now.

He shook his head. “I’m fine. I’m just sending her off.”

“Send… send who off?”

Mdm Chu felt a chill run down her spine and asked carefully.

Chu Sihan said hoarsely, “Send Sheng Sheng off.”

The mourning hall fell silent.

Lu Ran suddenly remembered that Lu Sheng could see the dead when she was alive.

“Was Ah Sheng… was she here to say goodbye to the Lord?” Lu Ran asked expectantly.

Chu Sihan looked up at him with confusion in his eyes.

Lu Ran hurriedly explained, “I know that Ah Sheng knew some spells when she was alive. She could see the dead. Perhaps… Lord can see them too.”

When Chu Sihan heard that, he nodded. “Yes, she came to visit you and said goodbye to me.”

“She came over?”

Lu Ran took a deep breath and tears flowed uncontrollably.

The funeral lasted for a few days.

Many people came to the funeral. Even many people from the capital came.

After the burial, Lin Jiang Mansion’s Chu Mansion regained its silence.

Lu Zhou and Shangguan Dian returned to the capital with the Eldest Prince. They said that they were going back to say goodbye, and were afraid that they would not be able to return again.

The King of Hades returned to the Netherworld.

Chu Sihan sat alone on the steps and stared into the distance.

His internal injuries were all healed. His magic power recovered, and he even broke through the bottleneck.

However, the world seemed to have calmed down immediately. It also made him feel that it was time for him to say goodbye to this world.

“Brother Chu.”

Shi Yi, Yun Ting, and Qi Dongjing walked over.

Chu Sihan looked back at them and said lightly, “Why are you here?”

“I came to visit you.”

Shi Yi passed a jar of wine over.

Chu Sihan reached out to receive it and looked at them. “Thank you.”

His expression was as indifferent as usual, making it impossible to tell if he was happy or sad.

“This is the last time.”

After some time, Chu Sihan suddenly stared at the bottom of the wine jar and spoke softly.

“Brother Chu, what are you saying?”

Yun Ting, who was sitting beside him, frowned in confusion.

Chu Sihan looked at him and shook his head. Then, he said lightly, “I’m going to resign.”

The three of them were shocked.

“You’re saying that you want to resign?” Shi Yi frowned. “Have you told Uncle and Aunt?”

“There’s no need to report my decision to them.”

Chu Sihan patted Yun Ting’s shoulder lightly and stood up. He looked into the distance and said lightly, “I might leave Xuan Yue Country. Perhaps, I won’t return.”

“What do you mean?”

Qi Dongjing, who was sitting on a tree, flew down and asked with a frown.

“I’m not from this world, and I don’t belong here.”

Chu Sihan looked at them and said lightly, “Although I’ve only lived in this world for more than twenty years, I’m really lucky to have met a group of good friends like you.”

Shi Yi frowned. “What do you mean by not belonging to this world?”

Chu Sihan did not answer Shi Yi immediately. Instead, he asked faintly, “Do you know why Sheng Sheng and I are involved?”

“Because of the State Minister’s prophecy?” Yun Ting asked softly.

“Yes.” Chu Sihan nodded. “But do you know why it has to be Sheng Sheng?”

The three of them shook their heads.

Chu Sihan’s gaze softened and he smiled softly. “Because her father owed my father money in my previous life, so he used her to repay his debt.”

The three of them looked at him in confusion.

“She’s not from this world. Now, she has returned to her world. I’m leaving too. I still have to find her. I can’t let her wait too long.”

“Brother Chu, are… are you alright?”

The more they heard, the more shocked they were. They kept feeling that Chu Sihan was possessed.

“I’m fine.”

Chu Sihan stuffed the empty jar into Shi Yi’s arms. “Let me tell you a secret.”

“What secret?” Qi Dongjing asked.

Chu Sihan said coldly, “I’m not a child of the Chu Mansion.”

“What?”

Yun Ting and Shi Yi were very calm. Qi Dongjing’s reaction was the greatest.

“Anyway, we’ll meet again if fate allows.”

Chu Sihan smiled at them and left.

The three of them looked at each other. Qi Dongjing frowned and asked, “Is he really alright?”

Shi Yi and Yun Ting shook their heads.

—————

Chu Sihan sent his resignation to the capital that night.

When Chu Yun knew about this, although he did not understand, he still followed him.

“Take these.”

Chu Sihan took out a box and passed it to Chu Yun. “You’re not young anymore. It’s time to start a family.”

Chu Yun did not take the box. Instead, he said firmly, “I’ll follow you wherever you go, Lord.”

“You can’t go where I’m going. Or rather, you don’t have to go yet.”

“When can I go then?”

“You saw the scene that day too.” Chu Sihan faced him and said lightly, “Don’t you find it strange?”

Constable Ji’s memory was wiped at that time, but Chu Yun’s was not.

The reason why he did not erase Chu Yun’s memories was because Chu Sihan understood his personality.

Chu Yun was slightly stunned. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, “No matter what the Lord is, I’m willing to follow you!”

“I’m the son of the King of Hades. If you follow me, you can only die.”

Chu Sihan’s gaze and tone were very indifferent.

However, this sentence made Chu Yun’s eyes widen and he was stunned.

“So, there’s no hurry. Perhaps you can still see me decades later.”

Chu Sihan patted his shoulder lightly and stuffed the box into his hand. He said softly, “When that time comes, you can decide if you want to continue following me.”

Then, he turned around and left.

After some time, Chu Yun suddenly smiled faintly.

For the first time, he felt that death was not that scary anymore.

However, since the Lord wanted him to live, he should live well.

Half a month later, Chu Sihan returned to Huang Yang Town.

The first thing he did when he returned was to find Chu Hongzhong.

“What happened? Why do you have this expression? Did something happen?”

When Mdm Chu entered, her heart jumped when she saw Chu Hongzhong’s reddened eyes.

She looked at Chu Sihan and saw that he was looking at her too.

She frowned slightly. “Han Er, you just came back. Why aren’t you resting?”

“I came back today to say goodbye to you.”

“Goodbye?” Mdm Chu frowned. “Where are you going?”

Chu Sihan said coldly, “Back to where I belong.”

“Where you belong?”

Mdm Chu was puzzled. She looked at Chu Sihan in confusion, then at Chu Hongzhong.

Chu Hongzhong sighed softly and said in a low voice, “There’s something I’ve kept from you for more than twenty years. It’s time to clarify it with you today.”

“What do you mean?” Mdm Chu did not understand.

“Our eldest son actually died early at birth. Sihan… is actually the Young Villa Master of Snowfall Villa.”

“What?!”

Mdm Chu was shocked. Her face paled immediately and her eyes widened in disbelief.

“Back then, after that child died, I was troubled and didn’t know what to say to you. At that time, Villa Master Yan happened to come to our house with Han Er, who was just born not long ago. In order not to upset you, I agreed.”

Chu Hongzhong sighed deeply and continued, “After that, when Yun Er was poisoned, I thought that there was no hope left. I didn’t expect Villa Master Yan to appear again and say that he could save Yun Er. Hence, I let him bring Yun Er away. The coffin actually contained our eldest son’s ashes.”

Mdm Chu listened in a daze, and her eyes welled up.

Chu Sihan cupped his hands and bowed thrice to the two of them. He said in a low voice, “No matter what, I still have to thank Father and Mother for raising me.”

No matter how much he disliked Mdm Chu’s personality, she was the one who raised him up. It was impossible to say that he had no feelings for her.

Mdm Chu wiped her tears and looked at him. “No matter what, you’re still my son, the eldest young master of the Chu Mansion. This has always been your home. You… You’re not to go anywhere!”

“I can’t stay.” Chu Sihan shook his head slightly. “I have something important to do.”

He stood up and looked at the two of them. “I’m afraid it’ll be difficult for us to meet again after this trip. Both of you have to take care of your bodies.”

Then, he turned around and left without turning back.

“Han Er!”

Chu Hongzhong and Mdm Chu chased after him at the same time.

Chu Sihan stopped in his tracks and turned back to smile at the two of them. “Take care!”

“Han Er!”

Matriarch Chu, who rushed over when she heard the commotion, looked at him with teary eyes.

“Grandmother!”

Chu Sihan sighed softly.

In the past, he did not like the Chu Mansion. However, at this moment, he felt an inexplicable reluctance. A person’s mood was really strange.

Matriarch Chu reached out her trembling hand and pulled his hand. “No matter what, you will always be the eldest young master of our Chu Mansion. As long as you want to come back, this will forever be your home!”

Chu Sihan nodded slightly and said in a low voice, “Grandmother, take care too. Thank you for taking care of Siyun, Father, and Mother.”

After speaking, he brushed Matriarch Chu’s hand away and left the Chu Mansion.

Mdm Chu’s calls and cries came from behind, but he did not turn back.

The lights in his courtyard were still on. Everything was still there, but he would never use them again.

After Chu Sihan left the Chu Mansion, he did not return to the Netherworld directly. Instead, he went to Liu Yue Village.

Because of Lu Sheng, Lu Ran did not go to the restaurant anymore. He Qin, Mdm Zhao, and the rest were also at the Lu family.

“Lord?”

When Lu Ran opened the door and saw the person outside, he could not help but be stunned. “Please come in!”

Chu Sihan shook his head. “I’m here to say goodbye to you, so I’m not going in.”

“Goodbye?” Lu Ran was stunned. “Where are you going, Lord?”

“I’m going to a faraway place. If you encounter any trouble in the future, you can find Magistrate Fu. He’ll help you.”

Chu Sihan had already met Fu Xianyun when he came to Liu Yue Village.

Fu Xianyun did not know where he was going, but he could not stop him.

Lu Ran did not know what to say and only said, “Take care.”

After Chu Sihan left, he never appeared again.

No one knew where he went or if he would return.
