Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 625  Foreign Help

Clem Shi lowered his head and ran his hands through his head excessively.

It has been 6 more days since that fateful encounter in the alley. Today, Clem Shi kept staring at his phone constantly, finding he was never able to put it down. \'Can they really do it?\'

He looked like a mad man when murmuring to himself with unfocused eyes. \'I just hope the help she said will come tonight.\' It wouldn\'t be a scam, right?

Clem Shi suddenly felt panicked. According to the strange woman, his matter would require the help of someone she called the Grandmaster. He will come with others, exactly for today\'s matter. Sometimes, Clem Shi would slap himself in the face, staring at the mirror to hypnotize himself to wake up from the nightmare he was currently living. Although Liana was still adamant about divorcing him, he still discreetly told her about his plans for revenge. Today, she suddenly changed her mind, agreeing not to divorce him. Those people said that tonight is the night he was destined to die. Perhaps it was because of his current haggard bone-like appearance and the fact that he was dying tonight, that made Liana change her mind. Liana also planned herself, for not being strong enough or convincing enough. Rather than telling, she should have tried her best to \'show\' him just how evil that baby truly was. This way, he would have long believed in him and worked together to save their child. But now, it was too late. Their boy was gone. However, they must still work hard to free what those people called his soul. Only in this way can their boy rest in peace and reincarnate into a happy home. Reincarnation? Soul freeing? Why didn\'t Clem Shi understand any of these things? To be honest, they all believe that when you die, you just die. Science says your body turns to decay, and that\'s the end of it. There\'s nothing more, nothing less. No afterlife or anything of that sort. Do you ask a mosquito about its afterlife? Do you think a Rose plant has an afterlife?

What about a Jaguar? A whale? A toad? For them, they all saw themselves just like the other living beings in this world. Everything was in the hands of Mother Nature. They live on her land, die and eventually return to the dust.

That\'s it. So what\'s this about Souls and afterlives?

Clem Shi still didn\'t get it. Feeling the ball on his throat roll up, he suddenly found himself very dehydrated and sweaty. In the span of a few days, he turned skeletal, thanks to his dear \'son\'.

Once you open your eyes to the strangeness of that boy you start realizing that everything he did was bizarre. The strange noises running through the walls, the shadows that didn\'t reflect anything, the green eyes, the child\'s systematic and thoughtful cries. When you sit to analyze it all, there was indeed something very fishy about his son. ….

"Mr. Shi, how are you doing?" How are you holding up? The company guard stared at the frightfully bony Mr. Shi, and felt a pang of pain in his heart. \'Alas, women are just terrible creatures. How can a woman make a man go so thin because of her wickedness?\' Hmph! The guard sneered, \'They keep saying they want a good man, but after getting him, what do they do? They turn him into bones!\' The guard inwardly cursed all women while pushing the button to open the company gates. Everyone had already left except for Mr. Shi and the cleaning staff.

"Have a good day, Mr. Shi! See you in a month!"

Looking at Mr. Shi\'s disappearing vehicle, the guard frowned, confusion very evident in his eyes. Ever since the incident, the company has been trying to get Mr. Shi to take a paid time off for as long as he needed, even if it\'s for 3 or 6 months. With how massive the case was, the company was also in the spotlight. So if they don\'t offer such a generous paid time off, it would look like they were heartless. They could already see the headlines now. <Father with psychotic wife, takes care of his baby with the last of his savings>

Why? Because Job didn\'t give him time to recover or take care of his child. No matter what, the company must show its support for Clem Shi. Even the CEO and big bosses gave Clem Shi a fat boys. One would think that Clem Shi would agree to stop working, but he has been refusing and delaying his time off. It was almost as though something was pursuing him at home, making him dread returning. Well, maybe his home reminded him too much of his wife. That it makes him depressed every time he stares at his home. The guard also heard that the child is typically with his mother in law during his working time. They had been begging him for a while to just stop work, go home and rest. Not just for his sake, but for the sake of the company\'s reputation. However, Mr. Shi often postponed his paid time off. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

That was until yesterday, when he suddenly had a change of heart, saying that today would be his last day at work. Instantly, the managers, leaders, superiors and even big company bosses were so happy that they almost jumped out of their chairs in glee. Good! Good! Good! (>0<)

Finally, this guy is going to leave! Finally, no more fear of reporters will camp out of their building, bothering them day in and day out. Finally, there won\'t be rumors saying that the company was bullying Clem Shi by refusing him to take time off. Know that no matter how many times they explained it, some people still thought it was their doing. There were all sorts of conspiracy theories out there, with some theories even speculating that Clem Shi\'s son might be the child of theirs along with Liana. Many said Liana might have wanted to kill the boy to ensure her infertility didn\'t get uncovered. Well, it\'s good that Clem Shi finally decided to leave after today. The company originally thought of giving Clem Shi 3 months off. But after all the troubles they\'ve received facing this matter, they decided to extend it until 6 months later. For half a year, he will be paid to rest at home… Travel… relax… cry… take care of his son… whatever it was to stay clear of the company until then. Shaking his head wryly, the guard felt pity for Clem Shi and all men in the world. \'Hey, I thought my ex-wife\'s betrayal was heart wrenching. But this one… this one takes the cake.\' Tch.

Women—

They were just evil beings men found destructive, but couldn\'t live without. …

Vrmmm~

Clem Shi felt his heart beating in his ears the slower he drove. The home that was once a symbol of love and happiness, now looked like an abandoned, cold and eerie place.

He was very distracted, but still knew he had to drive slower than he typically did. Soon, he arrived at his home, with an expression that looked worse than death.

Clem Shi sat in his vehicle, staring at the lights that were on in the living room. There was another vehicle parked beside him in his driveway. Already, he knew who it was. "Son-in-law, is that you? Come in, quickly… we–" The Dray Couple stepped out the door with \'little Hai\' in their arms. No matter how many times they saw Clem Shi, his appearance was truly ghastly for them to accept. Only those who knew what he looked like before, would understand just how terrifying and unbelievable his changes were. Instantly, their eyes turned moist. He must have loved their daughter too much for his appearance to change so much. They already took him to the hospital where the doctor said he was suffering from depression. The kind that might kill if he wasn\'t careful. Do you know that some people die right after their partners die? They can\'t see the world worth living, without their loved ones with them. The doctor said the shock and betrayal their daughter gave him was too deep. And yet, their son-in-law was still madly in love with their daughter. Sigh… They felt ashamed of what their daughter had done to the poor man and their granddaughter. They gave crooked smiles in an attempt to hide their pain. "Son-in-law, quickly leave your car and come in to eat." They just didn\'t want him spending so much time in his vehicle, thinking of who knows what. Wasn\'t that how depression grows? "Son-in-law, how did it go?" Clem Shi paused, carefully locking the door behind him. Then, he nodded. "Starting today, I will no longer head to the office for work."

"That\'s great!" Both parents released heavy sighs of relief. They were truly happy for their son-in-law, wishing to take care of him after what their daughter did to him.

Clem Shi felt panicked, knowing they were adamant about staying over tonight.

"Mom, dad, believe me, you don\'t have to–"

"Nonsense! We are staying, and that is that!"

Clem Shi felt his words ball up in his throat.

What should he do? Tonight, if he doesn\'t get them out, they too might end up being in danger!

Waaaaaa~

The baby began crying, allowing his in-laws to hug him comfortably. However, in a place where they couldn\'t see, it stared at Clem Shi with a smile that went to the back of its ears.

Human, today, you DIE
