Ten Thousand Soul Banner: Deceased, do you have any unfulfilled wishes?-Chapter 10 - Entrust (Seeking Monthly Ticket)

"Potty~"

"Potty~"

"Hehe..."

Dou Dou seemed to be in a great mood, circling around Shen Siyuan non-stop.

But seeing that Shen Siyuan kept ignoring her, her expression immediately turned sad.

"Potty~ can't you see me either? Mommy can't see me either."

Shen Siyuan still didn't respond but got up and walked out of the operations department to the hallway before finally asking, "Why are you here? Where are your mommy and daddy?"

"Wow~ Potty can still see me, so why didn't you respond to me just now?"

The little one cheered, stretching out her little hand to pat Shen Siyuan's leg, expressing her displeasure.

"Because there are too many people inside, and they can't see you. If I talk to you, they'll think I'm talking to thin air."

Upon hearing this, Dou Dou's thumb and index finger crossed to prop up her chubby little chin, pretending to be an adult, seriously saying, "I see."

Watching her amusingly imitate an adult, Shen Siyuan couldn't help but knock lightly on her little head.

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"They are waiting for Potty at the entrance."

Dou Dou pointed towards the door and then bounced around Shen Siyuan again.

"Your mommy can't see you, and you're still so happy?"

"Hehe~ Mommy said she's playing hide and seek with me, and that she will find me one day."

Dou Dou spread her arms out like an adorable little penguin.

But right after she finished speaking, she sighed, looking a bit unhappy, and said, "She probably won't be able to find me."

"You already know?" Shen Siyuan was a bit surprised.

"Of course, I'm very clever." Dou Dou said, with a hint of pride.

"Yes... yes, you are very clever."

Dou Dou: →_→

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I think you're saying bad things about me."

"Ha ha~, not at all."

This little creature is really cute; having one as a pet would be pretty interesting.

Shen Siyuan suddenly found himself entertaining such a thought.

Once outside the company, sure enough, he saw the couple waiting at the elevator entrance.

Seeing Mr. Shen come out, the two hurriedly approached.

"Mr. Shen~"

"President Tao, Accountant Jiang~"

Shen Siyuan also greeted them. Luckily, it wasn't time to get off work yet. If there were people coming out of the company, they would find it odd to hear them addressing Shen Siyuan like that.

Before Shen Siyuan could ask, Tao Guangsha took the initiative and said, "Mr. Shen, are you free tonight? We would like to invite you to have dinner with us."

This time, Shen Siyuan didn't decline and nodded his head to confirm.

Hearing this, Jiang Wenxin added, "It's more convenient at home because of Dou Dou. We hope Mr. Shen doesn't mind."

"It's fine, as long as there's food, I'm not picky."

"Oh~, then you're a good baby."

Dou Dou suddenly reached out to pat Shen Siyuan's leg.

Shen Siyuan was startled by the remark, then laughed, with Tao Guangsha laughing as well.

Only Jiang Wenxin, who could no longer see her daughter, looked puzzled.

After Tao Guangsha explained to her, her face was a mix of emotions, because this was something she often told her daughter.

"We'll wait for you downstairs."

Tao Guangsha was very happy to see Shen Siyuan agree.

"No need, it's almost time to get off work. I'll go talk to our manager and leave a few minutes early," said Shen Siyuan.

"This... It won't cause any trouble, right?" said Tao Guangsha.

Shen Siyuan had not yet spoken, when Jiang Wenxin said, "It's okay. I audit the monthly attendance anyway. I can just modify it at that time."

"That's not necessary," Shen Siyuan replied.

After saying that, he turned around and went back. Dou Dou wanted to follow but was held back by her father.

The systems at Guanghui Animation were well-established, but not all employees adhered to them.

Shen Siyuan greeted Zhou Chuan, who didn't even ask for a reason before agreeing directly.

Thinking that the electric scooter definitely couldn't be ridden back, he said to Lin Manzhi, "Sister Manzhi, I have something on tonight. Could you ride the scooter back for me and I'll wait for you at the bus stop tomorrow morning, is that okay?"

"That works for me, saves me from squeezing onto the bus tonight."

"Thanks, Sister Manzhi."

Shen Siyuan quickly handed over the keys to her.

"Hey, Sister Manzhi, are you two sharing a bike now?" Wang Chao, with his annoying mouth, immediately made sarcastic remarks.

Shen Siyuan couldn't be bothered with him and left the operations department directly.

Meanwhile, Lin Manzhi, unfazed by Wang Chao, retorted immediately, "Jealous, are you? Too bad you're not my type."

Wang Chao's face reddened immediately after hearing this, spurting something about manliness and reiterating his physical strength, causing everyone to erupt into laughter, thoroughly amused.

Tao Guangsha's car was parked downstairs, but it was Jiang Wenxin who was driving.

After she became unable to see ghosts, driving had become much smoother for her.

And Tao Guangsha, looking at the wandering dead souls outside the car, seized the opportunity to ask many questions.

"Why do most of these ghosts look so strange?"

"Why don't they enter the Underworld to be reincarnated?"

"No Reincarnation? Then where do they ultimately go? Do they just wander endlessly?"

...

"Death is not the final destination; the complete dissipation of the soul is the ultimate death."

"Ghosts completely dissipate for two reasons: first, they let go of all their lingering desires, leaving no attachment to the Mortal World, which leads to total dissipation. The second reason is being completely forgotten by the living."

Hearing this, Tao Guangsha hugged Dou Dou even tighter in his arms.

"We will never forget Dou Dou."

Driving the car, Jiang Wenxin couldn't help but say, "Becoming a ghost and being able to do nothing but wander, isn't that very lonely?"

"Yes, the hardest part of being a ghost is the loneliness. Many ghosts can't bear it and ultimately give up all their obsessions to return to the embrace of nature."

The couple fell silent upon hearing this, heartbroken at the thought of Dou Dou enduring unimaginable loneliness in the future.

"What's the matter? Why are you two not talking anymore?"

Seeing the silence in the car, Dou Dou asked with innocence.

Tao Guangsha picked her up and kissed her on the cheek.

Then, turning to Shen Siyuan, he said earnestly, "Mr. Shen, may we ask a favor of you?"

"Go ahead."

"Could you please take care of Dou Dou for us in the future? If possible, could you spend more time with her on our behalf, talk to her..."

For a father, not being able to accompany his daughter and having to ask a stranger to do so was extremely heart-wrenching.

So as Tao Guangsha spoke, his voice trembled slightly.

And Jiang Wenxin, gripping the steering wheel, clenched her hands until her knuckles turned white.

"We can pay you for your troubles. I know it sounds a bit trivial to say this, but we don't know how else to thank you. That's all we have..."

Tao Guangsha spoke very sincerely.

Dou Dou was their first child and also their only child.

Being a girl, they truly cherished her from the moment she was born.

Especially Tao Guangsha; Dou Dou was his precious little girl, and since her birth, he reduced his business trips and cut down on social engagements. He made time for his daughter whenever he could.

The day Dou Dou had her accident felt like the sky had fallen for him, but he couldn't collapse; his wife needed him, and so did their home.

So for Dou Dou, he would give anything, and had it not been for the car, he might well have knelt down before Shen Siyuan.

"We don't need any payment. For now, let Dou Dou stay with me," Shen Siyuan offered.

"Thank you... thank you, Mr. Shen..."

Tao Guangsha's voice was choked with emotion, at a loss for how to express his gratitude.
