At the Zhao family home, Zhao Hongmei ate the meat that was in the fridge a few days in a row. She realized that whenever her father cooked the meat, Official Song was the happiest when he ate it. Every time he finished eating, he would be in a good mood. Zhao Hongmei couldn’t help but find Father Zhao and say, “Dad, buy more meat tomorrow morning! He likes the meat! Recently, I also think that the meat is delicious!”
The truth was that although she thought that the meat tasted okay, the more she ate, the stranger it felt.
Zhao Hongmei was all about her boyfriend nowadays. As long as he liked to eat it, she liked it too.
Today, Father Zhao smoked a cigarette and didn’t look good. He had been waiting for Mother Zhao to come back in the last few days. A few days ago, he thought that she had gone out to buy groceries at the last minute, but after waiting all day, there was no sign of her.
Father Zhao finally panicked. He wanted to call the police, but his daughter and son-in-law kept stopping him.
He had a vague feeling that something was wrong. His wife disappeared not long after a ghost moved in. Father Zhao was vaguely afraid of thinking too deeply about the truth. His hand didn’t stop shaking as he smoked his cigarette. When his daughter mentioned the meat, Father Zhao inexplicably thought of the endless amount of meat in the fridge recently. He was too horrified by his conjecture, and his face suddenly turned pale. He got up abruptly, overturning his chair in his agitation.
“Daughter, do you think your mother’s disappearance is related to that ghost… that ghost…”
Before Father Zhao could finish speaking, Zhao Hongmei immediately interrupted him. “Dad, what are you saying? How does my mother’s disappearance have anything to do with Official Song? I know you don’t like him, but you can’t slander him like that!”
Zhao Hongmei had just finished speaking when the door was suddenly pushed open. Song Zhongsheng came over with a lot of meat and gave an eerie grin. “Dad, let’s continue eating the meat tonight and tomorrow. Your cooking these days has been really good!”
As soon as Zhao Hongmei saw Song Zhongsheng, she immediately beamed and snuggled in his arms.
Father Zhao was inexplicably terrified when he saw Song Zhongsheng in front of him. He didn’t know if it was because the image in his head was too terrifying, but under the light, Song Zhongsheng’s handsome face even looked a bit strange and ghastly
The more Father Zhao thought about it, the more scared he became. Seeing the meat that Song Zhengsheng was carrying, he was so scared that his face turned pale and he staggered back a few steps. Who knew if he was regretting or not at that moment that he hadn’t exorcised the ghost back then, but even acknowledged this ghost as his son-in-law?
Seeing Father Zhao staring at him with a deathly pale face full of fear put Song Zhongsheng in an even better mood. He shook the bloody meat in his hand and a few drops of blood dripped onto the floor. “Dad, you’re good at cooking. Let’s eat the meat tonight, okay? I’ll also show you my meager skills tonight, and cook pig brains for you!”
Seeing that her boyfriend liked the meat, Zhao Hongmei also happily wheedled, “Dad, I want to eat the meat. Can you quickly cook a few dishes for me and Zhongsheng?”
After saying that, Zhao Hongmei turned around and fawned on Song Zhongsheng. “Zhongsheng, I’m sure your cooking must be good. I also like to eat pig brains.”
At that moment, the phone in the room suddenly rang. Song Zhongsheng approached the phone and picked it up. After listening for a while, Song Zhongsheng said to the father and daughter of the Zhao family, “Dad, it’s Mom. Come and answer it!”
Father Zhao was initially terrified by his imagination and Song Zhongsheng. When he suddenly heard that his wife had called, he didn’t dare believe it too much, until he picked up the phone and really heard her familiar voice.
Father Zhao’s tense heart relaxed. It seemed that he had really been imagining things just now. Although this son-in-law was a ghost, he was usually very good to his daughter. Also, those meat slabs might have been too bloody, which made his imagination run wild.
When Father Zhao answered the phone, he found out that his wife had gone back to her maiden home and was planning to stay for a month. Father Zhao didn’t think much of it. The husband and wife had quarreled previously because of this ghost son-in-law.
He was in favor of exorcising the ghost, but his wife was unwilling and felt that this ghost son-in-law was quite good to their daughter.
Father Zhao finally stopped doubting Song Zhongsheng. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, “Okay, I’ll cook for you guys. I’ll use this meat to stir-fry some of your favorite dishes!”
