Master, Your Wife Has Become a Super Star Through Fortune-Telling Chapter 60 - 61: Finding Your Dad
The crescent moon hung in the sky like a sharp, stiff hook. And the pitch-black night was like a limitless, thick sar of ink across the heavens, not even a glimr of starlight peeking through.
Li Shuo, who had brought Su Nian to the graveyard again in the middle of the night, swallowed hard.
As the saying goes: a dark and windy night is a perfect ti for murder and arson. And this particular night, for no reason at all, was giving him an ominous premonition.
"Heavenly Venerate... what are we going to do now?"
Su Nian glanced at him. "Of course... we’re going to find your dad..."
Li Shuo froze. He was the first to be so direct about it, and hearing it put that way actually scared him a little.
"Are we... are we going to dig my dad up?"
Li Shuo whispered.
Then he muttered, "But I didn’t bring a shovel."
Su Nian was speechless...
[Did I misunderstand what the strear ant?]
[I thought we were waiting for his dad to climb out on his own. I didn’t expect this guy to have such... unique ideas.]
[The strear wouldn’t do sothing that ssed up, would he?]
[Kinda creepy. A son digging up his own father’s grave?]
’The last ti I t soone with such original thoughts was, well, the last ti.’
"I’m waiting for your dad to climb out himself. The conditions are right tonight. If this is really about a ghost marriage, it will definitely show up!"
Su Nian said irritably. If it weren’t for the fact that Li Shuo was his top donor, he would’ve had a hard ti restraining himself from slapping him.
Li Shuo paused for a mont upon hearing this, a little embarrassed.
He couldn’t help but try to explain. "I just misunderstood. It’s not like I actually want to dig up my dad’s grave."
[Don’t explain. The more you explain, the guiltier you sound.]
[At first, I thought you just misunderstood the strear. Now I’m sure of it—that’s what you really wanted to do!]
Li Shuo was about to explain further when he saw Su Nian’s expression turn serious as he stared intently ahead.
A shiver ran down his spine, and he cautiously glanced around.
The mountain cast a deep shadow, blanketing the small path that hugged its side.
The neatly trimd bushes blurred into dark masses, swaying wantonly in the night wind with a rustling sound.
It felt as if sothing was stealthily creeping closer, raising the hairs on his neck.
And then, sothing even more terrifying happened.
CREAK...
RUSTLE RUSTLE RUSTLE...
This ti, the sound wasn’t coming from the trees or bushes, but from the grave.
The sound was of dirt being pushed aside, as if so strange thing was struggling to shove away the soil packed over its coffin, then clawing its way out, bit by bit.
Li Shuo’s body began to tremble uncontrollably.
His lips quivered as if he was desperately trying to speak, but no words ca out. His face was drained of all color in terror, only his eyes darting back and forth.
His dad was really climbing out of his coffin.
[Why do I get the feeling that grave is actually moving?]
[I just saw a clump of dirt fly out.]
[S-Sothing really looks like it’s climbing out!]
[Geez, what are you all so scared of? Unlike you guys, I’ve already tucked my little hands and feet away, just waiting for the strear to make his move (๑•.•๑)]
[Person above , I think I’m gonna puke...]
[You damn green tea bitch!]
The sounds grew louder. It seed the thing was about to break free.
Su Nian frowned, even taking a few steps forward to get a clearer look.
He wanted to get a clearer look at what it was.
A hand like withered wood stretched out into the dark night.
Thanks to Su Nian’s brand-new phone, even the mottled spots on the hand were captured in crystal-clear detail.
[A scene like this could scare to death!]
[I’m so scared I can barely hold my water glass.]
[The strear’s hand didn’t even shake. He’s the real deal!]
[As expected of a professional, he’s not scared at all! He even points the cara right at the scariest part for us.]
The withered hand even brushed away the surrounding dirt before struggling to push up its upper body.
It was as if a body was arching and writhing in the dirt, causing the grave mound to bulge.
Soon, a numb face erged. Its eyes were vacant, but its mouth was stretched into a grin. Faced with such a grotesque sight, everyone except the ever-calm Su Nian was spamming the chat about how they’d peed their pants.
The other hand quickly erged from the soil as well. Strangely, this hand was clutching a small nail.
Both hands then began clearing the dirt that buried its legs.
The whole process was simple and efficient. It looked like it had climbed out several tis before.
[I really think he’s out for revenge!]
[It’s over. Is Li Shuo really going to get killed by his own dad?]
[What do we do? I’m so scared.]
As the buried legs were cleared of dirt, bit by bit...
...the comnts about peeing oneself flooded the chat. Li Shuo’s face grew even paler as he frantically tried to rember what he had ever done to wrong his father.
But even as his brows knitted together and a thousand thoughts raced through his mind, he couldn’t co up with a single answer.
’Could it be that he found out I got an eight on my third-grade math test?’
’Or was it because I took the condoms from ho and played with them like balloons? Was that what made him too angry to rest in peace?’
’Or did he find out... that I’m actually gay!?’
At this thought, Li Shuo grew even more tense. A chill shot up his spine, making the hairs on his arms stand on end as he trembled uncontrollably.
Just then, Su Nian noticed it started walking forward, nail in hand.
It was heading right in the direction where he and Li Shuo were hiding. As the distance closed, a strange, foul stench drifted over.
Overwheld by imnse fear and the putrid sll, Li Shuo couldn’t hold it in and suddenly threw up.
"BLEGH..."
Su Nian knew sothing was wrong the mont he heard the sound. Before an even stranger sll could erge, he leaped out from their hiding spot.
The movent quickly caught the attention of Mr. Li, who was advancing with the nail.
Its gaze was piercing. The very second it looked up, it spotted Li Shuo, who was crouched over and retching his guts out.
It imdiately let out a ghastly voice, as if the words were being forcibly squeezed from its throat.
"Shuo? What are you doing here? Saves the trouble of looking for you!"
The strange, sinister tone of voice made Li Shuo even more terrified.
But this was his own dad!
’Even if he knew I was gay and couldn’t give him the grandchildren he dread of, he wouldn’t climb out of his grave to co after , would he?!’
’He wouldn’t... would he?’
Li Shuo tried to ntally prepare himself. He finally summoned his courage, only to see a skeletal figure holding a sharp nail in one hand.
It was staring at him with a bizarre expression. Li Shuo felt a dreadful certainty. ’Maybe Dad really did find out I’m gay!’
"Shuo?"
As the voice called out again, the eerie figure drew closer. Li Shuo’s face flushed crimson, his eyes bloodshot and looking as if they would pop from their sockets. His nostrils flared with tension.
His breathing was heavy, his lips pressed into a thin line, and every muscle in his body was tensed.
As if suddenly aware of the sound of his own ragged breaths, Li Shuo desperately tried to suppress it, not daring to exhale. A cold sweat seed to break out on his back.
"Hi... Dad..."
Mustering every last ounce of courage he had, Li Shuo managed to greet his father.
And then he gloriously fainted...
