Chapter 84 Miss Ghost (ETL) Part 2

Chapter 84 The ghost lady who made trouble in the crew
The next morning, Gu Ye logged on to Weibo while eating breakfast and saw that the person who slandered him still hadn’t apologized.
What Gu Ye is dissatisfied with in this case with the human traffickers is that the other party dares to use anything for the sake of virality, including twisting the truth and slandering good people. From the proficiency of this kind of rhythm, it can be seen that the other party didn’t do it for the first time. Other victims may tolerate it, but Gu Ye does not want to tolerate it even a bit. After breakfast, Gu Ye called his mother, “Mom, which lawyer team did you use for the last lawsuit?”
Mrs. Gu asked worriedly, “What’s wrong? Who wants to sue?”
“It’s the person who slandered me as a terrible rich second generation on the Internet. Someone sent me some screenshots of the slander, and the insults were pretty ugly. I want to ask if I can sue.”
“Yes!” Mrs. Gu’s fighting spirit soared when she heard that it was Gu Ye who was suing someone, “Send me the screenshots! Mom will help you! You can sue anything with my help!”
Gu Ye: “…My mom, you are so handsome.”
“Scram!”
And so, Gu Ye ‘scrammed’ away to school. In the evening, Mrs. Gu told Gu Ye, “I have asked the lawyer to handle it. The other party didn’t have any stand so we will definitely win.”
Gu Ye raised the corner of his mouth and posted a Weibo post: [I have given the person who slandered me a chance, but no one has come to apologize to me. In order not to disappoint the good people, I have given the evidence to the lawyer. I look forward to seeing him in court. Muah~]
The fans were all shouting: [I told you! Master Gu can’t just let people scold him like this!]
[The slanderer should be confronted with Gu Ye’s kind of people who have a bad temper. He dares to take advantage of any popularity without distinguishing right from wrong. Does he think that the Internet is a lawless place?]
[Sue him! Sue, sue, sue!]
…
Not long after this Weibo was posted, someone privately poked Gu Ye to apologize, and there were hundreds of private pokes in a row. Gu Ye clicked on it and saw that it was from a small account. Gu Ye laughed twice. This rat who dared not even show his face was directly blocked.
Soon, the identity of this slanderer was found out. It turned out to be a gossip paparazzi with many fans on Weibo, who often exposed the private lives of celebrities. This video was given to him by someone, hoping that he could expose it and let everyone see the fate of human traffickers.
Unexpectedly, the paparazzi maliciously erased the sound and changed the focus of the video to Gu Ye. After all, the news about a rich second generation beating people and violating traffic rules gives similar traffic to him. To be honest, the paparazzi also can see that Gu Ye had a stubborn and bad temper, and was very tough when he was arguing with others, so he didn’t dare to confront Gu Ye head-on. That’s the reason why he posted the news in the gossip forum to test the waters. If Gu Ye didn’t care, he would dare to take advantage of Gu Ye’s traffic in the future.
Unexpectedly, Gu Ye didn’t let it pass at all. Since the paparazzi dared to blacken him, he dared to sue! Sending him directly to court!
The financial resources of the Gu family must be top-notch, and Gu Ye must have hired a lawyer. The paparazzi knew he lost the lawsuit without having to fight. Apologize? Too late.
Once this incident was exposed, all the gossip accounts took this idiot as a lesson. Everyone understands that if a matter involves the Old Third of the Gu family, don’t mess with him.
On Wednesday, the medal of bravery that Mu Jingfei applied for Gu Ye was issued. Mu Jingfei personally delivered it to Gu Ye and also gave Zhao Pengyu and Xia Xiang written rewards. Gu Ye pinned the medal on Ling Ling’s clothes, making Ling Ling so happy that she walked with little hops.

Just after a day of quietness, on Friday afternoon, someone contacted Gu Ye and said that their crew was haunted and wanted Gu Ye to take a look.
It’s not the first time that Gu Ye has heard of a haunted crew. Because a crew is a place that interprets different themes, it has a different aura, and it may attract ghosts from a certain era to watch the fun. Some people with special eyes or after passing through a special magnetic field may see ghosts.
However, this ghost is a little different from the ones Gu Ye encountered before.
The crew told Gu Ye, “This ghost is a female. She doesn’t hurt anyone, but she moves our props every night, wears the actresses’ clothes, and wears their jewelry. Although they are all returned, how dare the actors use them? Sometimes she comes out to sing in the middle of the night. It’s too scary when shooting night scenes. Master Gu, can you persuade her to leave our crew?”
Hearing that, Gu Ye felt that this ghost was quite interesting and not scary at all. He asked suspiciously, “Are you sure it’s a ghost and not a prank?”
The crew member replied with a despaired tone, “It’s definitely a ghost! We checked the surveillance, and those things moved by themselves! From the mirror, you can clearly see that it is a young lady in ancient costume!”
Gu Ye smiled, “Okay, I’ll go and see on Saturday night. Where is your crew?”
The other party sent a location, which was in a Wangye’s mansion in the film studio.
On Saturday, after school in the afternoon, Gu Ye returned to his apartment to take his car. But the non-humans in the family stared at him, all with resentful eyes. Gu Ye took the car keys and looked at them with a wry smile, “What are you looking at?”
Ye Li jumped down from the table, “I’m going with you!”
Ling Ling followed suit and said, “I’m going too!”
Qing Yi didn’t say anything. She had already floated to the door; she was going too.
Even the three-headed dog looked at Gu Ye with three heads, the meaning in their gazes said, “I’m going too”.
The scene made Gu Ye speechless, “Why are you all following me? It’s not like we’re going to fight!”
Ye Li snorted coldly, “Don’t even think about leaving me behind!”
Gu Ye was helpless, “I don’t need to bring my entire family with me to get rid of ghosts! Also, Ling Ling is going to follow too? Am I supposed to go out with a doll in my arms?”
Ling Ling smiled. She jumped onto Gu Ye’s shoulder and sat down, shaking her little feet.
Gu Ye carried Ling Ling down tiredly and put her in Ye Li’s arms, “You stay at home to take care of your sister.”
Ye Li put Ling Ling in Hong Dou’s arms instead and glared at Gu Ye fiercely, “Don’t even think about it!”
Hong Dou held back her laughter and hugged Ling Ling tightly, “Children no need to go. But for the rest, you should take them with you. How can they let you go out alone after such a long separation?”
“Okay.” Gu Ye put a piece of bamboo, a dog tooth, and a wooden doll* into his bag, and went out with his family.
*Not sure if the author made a mistake here because Ye Li was a porcelain doll
When they were about 200 meters from the destination, Gou Ya (dog tooth) turned into a big dog and lay on the roof of Gu Ye’s car. He barked 3 times to remind Gu Ye that there was a ghost ahead. Gu Ye hadn’t felt the convenience of having a dog warning for a long time, and praised, “Gou Ya’s skills have not fallen at all, and is getting better and better! I’ll buy you meat when we return home, 3 servings!”
Gou Ya proudly raised his three heads high, and slapped a passing bird soul with one claw, acting like a domineering CEO.
After parking the car at the entrance of the crew, a crew member immediately ran out. He was a man in his forties, not tall, with a shrewd face. “Hello, Master Gu, I am the deputy director of this crew. My name is Chang Ping, and I am also the person who contacted you.”
Gu Ye politely shook hands with the other party, “Hello, Teacher Chang.”
“I don’t dare to be the teacher, how dare I be called a teacher in front of Master Gu?” Chang Ping politely led the way for Gu Ye and introduced the situation of the crew. “Because that ghost lady comes out every night, we dare not shoot the night scenes at night. Today, everyone in the crew is on holiday, so I and a few security guards are left here. I didn’t dare to come in when you didn’t come, and I was waiting at the door.”
Gu Ye smiled and comforted, “Don’t be afraid, there are ghosts aura here, but they are not evil ghosts. She has no intention of hurting anyone.”
Chang Ping smiled and said, “If she intended to hurt people, I dare not stay here at all. The people in our crew are all ordinary people. How can normal people not be afraid of ghosts? When she came out, the actresses were almost scared to tears, let alone filming. We can’t stand it if she touches our props every day.”
After hearing this description, Gu Ye thought this ghost sister was quite interesting. At least after using it at night, she would return the props in the morning before the crew started filming, so as not to delay the crew’s filming process.
Chang Ping took Gu Ye around the set. This is a Wangye’s mansion. Their crew rented the entire mansion for the filming.
Chang Ping explained, “This was really a mansion before. It is said that an official of the Qing Dynasty lived here. It was abandoned for a while after the founding of the People’s Republic of China. Later, a film studio was built in this area. This mansion happened to be in the area, so it was expanded into the current Wangye’s mansion. To be honest, it costs a lot of money to rent this mansion for a day. She always delays the progress of filming. We really can’t stand it.”
After sniffing the smell, Gou Ya ran away in small steps. When turning the corner, all three heads looked back at Gu Ye, signaling: Follow me!
Gu Ye followed Gou Ya to the back garden. Now that the weather is warm, all kinds of flowers in the garden are blooming, and bursts of flower fragrance are spreading in the air. There are even a few fireflies in the flowers, adding a bit of romance to this beautiful garden.
The most eye-catching thing in the courtyard is an ancient tree that is more than a meter thick. Gu Ye has little knowledge of trees and cannot tell what species it is. Part of the bark below is gone, and there are many bullet holes on the trunk, but it still grows lush and leafy. Just 3 meters away, a branch like a small arm extended out, making the whole body of the tree deformed, presenting a rare C shape.
Gu Ye looked at the branch with a complicated expression.
Chang Ping saw Gu Ye looking at the tree and explained enthusiastically, “It is said that this tree was planted by the ancestors of that great official. It has been hundreds of years and is our key protection object.”
Gu Ye nodded. The other party was explaining so vigorously that Gu Ye kindly did not remind him that at this moment, a noble lady in a red wedding dress was repeating the scene before her death. She hung a red silk on the branch and hanged herself.
Many suicidal ghosts keep repeating their own death process. They all have concerns in their hearts and do not reincarnate, so they can’t get out of the circle they set for themselves and keep repeating the saddest scene.
Gu Ye looked at the ghost with sympathy. This is the reason why people should cherish their lives and not end their own lives, otherwise, the consequences will be worse than living.
Miss Ghost kicked over the stool under her feet with a face full of despair and struggled painfully. The two-minute suffocation made her unable to struggle anymore. Her body hung vertically on the tree, swaying back and forth with the wind. Gu Ye could not avoid this scene and could only watch from the side.
Seeing that Gu Ye did not speak, Chang Ping followed his gaze and looked up at the tree, but found nothing, which made his scalp numb. “Master Gu?”
“Hush!” Gu Ye made a gesture to keep silent. At this moment, Miss Ghost raised her head and understood what had just happened. She floated down from the tree with a face full of grief and anger. But as soon as her feet landed, she met Gu Ye’s eyes. Miss Gui was startled and flew away in panic.
“Don’t go!” Gu Ye chased after the ghost, “Qingyi, stop her!”
A green shadow floated out and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Gu Ye followed Qingyi’s breath and chased after her. When he turned a corner, he saw a frosty-faced beauty in green. She was like a steel warrior, holding Miss Ghost’s belt without mercy like picking up a chick, and hung her on the clothesline.
Seeing Gu Ye chased up to her, Qing Yi reported coldly, “I caught her!”
Gu Ye: “…Tha, thank you for your hard work. Miss Ghost, let’s talk. Why are you here?”
“This is my home!” At first, Miss Ghost was very angry but when she saw Qing Yi standing behind Gu Ye and looking at her coldly, her temper was instantly scared away. She continued tremblingly, “I’m waiting for someone. He said he would come to marry me. I will wait for him and I won’t go anywhere.”
Gu Ye asked the ghost with a pitiful tone, “How many hundreds of years have you been waiting?”
Miss Ghost shook her head, “I don’t know.”
Gu Ye asked again, “Is your memory incomplete?”
Miss Ghost shook her head again, she didn’t know either.
Gu Ye saw that the ghost was hanging from the clothesline, which was really inhumane, “Qing Yi, put her down. Let’s have a talk.”
