Chapter 10, Forbidden Love

The male customer’s eyes lit up as he said, "How did you know? That’s right, I want to meet her. I love her so much and miss her terribly. In the days without her, I have lost my appetite and my will to live; sometimes I think... it would be better to just go with her."

"I have made my decision," Mr. Liu said earnestly

Upon hearing this news, I was utterly shocked.

However, no matter how much I pressed her later, Lin Jie remained tight-lipped, at most replying with, "You will know in the future."

I was completely baffled and asked her what the Lu family girl was

Moreover, after the onset of the illness, my temperament becomes very irritable... This condition, as Sister Lin explained, is caused by the accumulation of a large amount of negative energy in my body due to my long-term practice of massaging patients

I touched my nose and said nothing

In essence, it is desire that is at play

The male customer, who is approximately in his thirties, wears a pair of glasses and presents himself as quite refined; unexpectedly, he seems to have some issues with his intellect

I would like to mention that I have a peculiar illness. After a certain period, I experience weakness in my limbs, an unbearable thirst, and no amount of water seems to help.

In my practice of Yin-Yang massage, the "Corpse Spirit Massage" involves invoking the spirit to possess the body, utilizing the divine to fulfill their desired needs.

Nobler aspirations, ideals, dreams, and wishes

I took a sip of my tea and thought to myself that this customer is quite devoted, as it is indeed rare to find such genuine feelings in this materialistic society

After hanging up the phone, I said to Mr. Liu: "Have you really thought it through?"

The male customer then lowered his voice and said: "I heard that you have some rather unusual massage services here"

"It is what it is, but have you considered the consequences?" I said lightly, "You are human, she is a ghost; humans and ghosts are on different paths. Being together will lead to no good outcome... Moreover, you are still so young and have no trouble finding a girlfriend, so why hang yourself on a single tree?"

The male customer hesitated for a long time before finally saying: "My girlfriend recently passed away due to a car accident"

It is one thing to summon a benevolent deity, but if one inadvertently summons a malevolent god and offends them, the consequences could be dire. The repercussions could range from mere misfortune to the loss of life; such incidents are not without precedent.

I looked at him in astonishment, unable to speak for a long time

On one occasion during a meal, I mentioned this matter to Sister Lin

I quickly stood up and asked him if he wanted a massage

"Why not do it? Opening a business, how can there be anything that doesn't make money?" Lin Jie’s lazy voice came through the phone, as if she had just woken up from somewhere.

Therefore, when that male customer mentioned "not quite the same" regarding the massage, I immediately understood what he was implying... I quickly closed the shop door and invited him into the massage room, at which point I asked him what he needed me to do

Certainly, while fulfilling their desires, the accompanying risks are also substantial

In life, there are many pursuits, which, in common terms, can be reduced to fame, fortune, wealth, relationships, and power.

I smiled and immediately understood what he meant

The time is set to an afternoon two months after my discharge from the hospital

Here I would like to mention that my Yin-Yang massage technique, in addition to dispelling illness and driving away evil, actually has another effect, which is to attract wealth and ensure safety

... ...

That day, the weather outside was dreary and rainy, and I sat in a rocking chair at the massage parlor, leisurely reading an adult novel titled "Inflatable Doll"

Yes, together forever

Alas, it seems that I truly harbor quite a number of secrets within myself

The male customer glanced at me, opened his mouth as if to speak, but appeared hesitant to continue.

But... wouldn't that harm him? I said with a bitter smile

However, this shocking major case was ultimately suppressed by a certain force in Xishui Town

I am somewhat impatient and said: "You want to meet her, don't you?"

The male customer shook his head and said, "No, you do not understand the feelings between me and light beauty; that is something that no one can replace."

Sister Lin smiled slightly after hearing this and said meaningfully: "The girl from the Lu family is quite quick in her actions"

I asked again

I want ... ... I want ... ... " The male customer stammered, unable to utter a word for a long time.

Just as I was about to fall asleep, a male customer entered the store

... ...

Sister Lin said softly: "Good and evil are merely a matter of thought. Many things are not within our control, and it is not a question of harm or no harm. Ultimately, it still depends on one's own fate."

It was initially thought that time could fade everything, but as time went on, he found himself missing light beauty even more. Whether eating, working, walking, sleeping, or even dreaming, he constantly thought of the appearance and demeanor of light beauty

It is not uncommon to encounter customers who, due to the loss of a spouse or a loved one, experience longing for the deceased and wish to see them again; I have long been accustomed to this.

Generally, those who speak such words are either possessed by evil spirits or have encountered "dirty things" that need to be resolved

"Is it not possible?" the male customer frowned and said

I took out my phone and called Sister Lin, explaining Mr. Liu's matter to her and asking if this could be done

This medicine is neither bitter nor sweet, but as bland as water

By the way, when I was being beaten up in the alley, that strange illness flared up. If I hadn't been injured so severely, it is not out of the question that I would have killed those bastards in a state of delirium

Shortly after my discharge from the hospital, a significant event occurred in the town

Is it really that simple? I said with a smile

I was taken aback, not understanding why he suddenly said this, and could only respond: "Oh, please accept my condolences."

I did not pay much attention to this strange illness, as it is not a terminal disease; as long as I take my medication on time, it will be fine

Brother, I beg you, I must be with Light Beauty; without her, my existence in this world holds no meaning!

Alright, please wait a moment

Ha ha, it is actually all nonsense

The group of thugs, including the bald man, along with their gang affiliations, mysteriously vanished overnight as if they had evaporated from the world. Except for the one with the slanted eyes who fled to another city and escaped disaster, all those who had laid hands on me that day in the alley met with death, without exception

Together ?

A male customer told me that three months ago, he was driving with Light Beauty on a trip when they were struck broadside by a large truck. Light Beauty, who was sitting in the passenger seat, died on the spot, while he was taken to the hospital and managed to survive. At that time, he was in immense pain and had thought about dying alongside Light Beauty, but he dismissed that thought upon realizing that his elderly mother at home had no one to care for her.

However, since she has already permitted it, I will no longer dwell on anything.

To be honest, I have had my doubts about Sister Lin, but she is just a massage parlor owner. Although she knows a bit of magic, it shouldn't be to the extent of having such extraordinary abilities

Either he has special requirements

Sister Lin gave me a type of medicine, instructing me to take it whenever I experience an episode.

What are the special requirements

I scratched my head, thinking that Lin Jie’s words are always so profound and inscrutable. Although I do not understand them, they still seem very reasonable.

What is your surname, sir? I asked

The male customer paused for a moment and said, "My humble surname is Liu."

Of course, it is not that simple. The male customer shook his head and said, "Not only do I want to see her, but I also want to be with her"

Remarkably, after consuming it, my peculiar illness was indeed brought under control
