Da Wei spoke with surprise.
But then, he denied it again:
"No, impossible!
You must be sent by Brother Wang to trick me.
It's useless, I don't want to live anymore.
My life has lost its meaning, Wen Li is gone, I just want to die.
You can save me once, but you can't save me a second time..."
After speaking, Da Wei gave a bitter smile, his eyes filled with despair.
Mo Ting and I looked at this young man, who was only slightly older than us, and it was hard to imagine how deeply he felt for Miss Wen.
Can loving someone truly be reckless? Not even afraid of death?
This thought inexplicably arose in my mind.
Because I had never been in love.
I never knew what that feeling was like.
Meanwhile, Wen Li beside us was already sobbing uncontrollably.
Mo Ting also sighed:
"Alright, I'm too lazy to bicker with you.
Seeing is believing, hearing is false.
Let's just open your Heavenly Eye, and you can see for yourself!"
"Open Heavenly Eye?"
Da Wei blinked, looking at Mo Ting.
Mo Ting took out the eye-opening potion and shook it:
"Damn, it's gone?
Brother Qin, you open his eyes for him.
Let Miss Wen talk to him herself..."
Both Mo Ting and I could see that he was a devoted soul.
If it were just Mo Ting and me telling him, he certainly wouldn't believe us.
To be decisive, let him communicate with Miss Wen himself, perhaps the effect would be very good.
I grunted and took out the eye-opening medicine from my pocket:
"Close your eyes, I'll open your Heavenly Eye, and you can see for yourself!"
"Who, who are you?"
Da Wei was very nervous, appearing somewhat surprised.
I held my cigarette and said nothing.
Mo Ting, however, spoke up with excitement:
"Messengers of light walking under the moonlit night, urban demon hunters who slay ghosts and eliminate demons."
Although I was already accustomed to Mo Ting's chuunibyo pronouncements.
Sometimes hearing them still made me feel a surge of energy, my toes curling.
Da Wei was also stunned.
But I had already sprayed the potion onto his eyelids:
"Rub it on your eyelids with your hands for three to five seconds, then open your eyes and you can see Miss Wen."
After speaking, I put away my eye-opening potion.
Da Wei, though skeptical, followed the instructions.
Miss Wen also appeared very nervous at this moment, with anticipation and urgency, sniffing.
She even adjusted her clothes and hair, composing her smile.
Making herself look less frightening...
Soon, Da Wei finished applying the potion.
Da Wei's breathing also became more rapid, he was likely also anticipating.
Anticipating that he could truly see Miss Wen one more time.
He slowly opened his eyes.
Before him, a woman in white gradually appeared.
The woman had hair as black as a waterfall, and wore a white long dress.
Although her complexion was pale, and her eyes were gray.
However, when Da Wei saw this woman again, his body visibly trembled.
Overcome with emotion, tears streamed down his face:
"Li, Lili..."
"Da Wei!"
Two choked voices rang out.
Then, the two embraced.
"I saw you, I saw you again..."
Da Wei's voice was choked with emotion, greatly moved.
Every word came from the bottom of his heart.
Miss Wen held Da Wei tightly, nodding repeatedly with a tearful voice.
The scene was quite touching.
I once saw a saying online: The ghosts you fear are the people others yearn for.
It felt fitting to describe the current scene.
I tugged Mo Ting and then said to Da Wei and Miss Wen:
"Miss Wen, you only have about half an hour."
After speaking, Mo Ting and I turned and walked into Da Wei's room.
After ten minutes of ventilation, the smell had greatly diminished.
We two came to the window, chatting while waiting...
Half an hour, it felt both long and short.
When we came back outside.
Da Wei's eye-opening time should have been nearing its end.
Mo Ting and I's path of the underworld had already closed.
So we could only see Da Wei alone, with his arms around himself in the hallway.
Reluctantly, he said:
"Lili, I've remembered everything.
Don't worry, I will live well.
I will no longer have thoughts of suicide.
I will definitely fulfill our dream, and make our little shop bigger and better.
A hundred years from now, I will come down to find you..."
At this point, Da Wei made a hugging gesture.
After waiting for a while, Da Wei stood blankly in place, a slight smile appearing on his face.
His Heavenly Eye time should have also ended.
At the same time, he spotted Mo Ting and me, and turned to walk over:
"Thank you, thank you two Daoist priests for letting me see Lili again."
After saying this, he knelt down with a thud, wanting to kowtow to us.
Seeing this, we two quickly helped him up.
Mo Ting even said:
"Brother, don't think about giving up on life anymore."
"I understand now.
I will live well, thank you.
Otherwise, I would have really done something foolish."
Da Wei thanked us again.
Mo Ting and I both smiled faintly.
At the same time, I said:
"Da Wei, Miss Wen, we should be going now. Perhaps we'll meet again!"
After speaking, I smiled at Da Wei and the empty hallway.
Although we couldn't see Miss Wen at this moment, based on experience and intuition.
Mo Ting and I both knew that Miss Wen had not left.
She was standing in the hallway right now, it was just that we couldn't see her.
Then, Mo Ting and I stopped lingering and turned to walk downstairs.
I don't know if it was an illusion, but even though the path of the underworld had closed.
As we were leaving, I faintly heard Miss Wen's voice.
It seemed to be saying "Thank you" to us...
