After I stopped being a lady from a rich family, I fought all over the capital

Chapter 312 Are we already dead?
After a moment of mourning, everyone harbored resentment towards Song Lan.

But soon, someone noticed that something was wrong.

"We seem to be alright?"

Yes!

Upon hearing this, Zhao Yueli was the first to exclaim in surprise: "The campfire went out, but I'm still fine! My hands haven't turned into mummified hands!"

Everyone looked at themselves, then at others, sizing each other up.

"Really! I'm okay, I'm okay, that's great!"

"I'm fine too!"

"It's alright/That's great..."

Overjoyed, everyone wept and embraced one another, laughing and crying at the same time.

Even Lin Zhixiu, somewhat awkwardly, hugged Zhao Yueli, whom she had previously looked down upon.

But she quickly calmed down.

Thinking back on her previous malicious speculations about Song Lan, Lin Zhixiu felt a little guilty.

"I shouldn't have thought that way about Miss Song..." she muttered softly.

Zhao Yueli was close by and heard everything clearly.

She subconsciously looked for Su Xianyun, who was familiar with Song Lan, and the ghost messenger who was being ordered by Song Lan to burn firewood.

They discovered that the courtyard was deserted, and now only a few of them lived there.

It looks kind of scary.

"Strange, it's understandable that the Song family's daughter went home early, but why is the Su family's daughter nowhere to be seen?"

"And the one who helped us light the campfire yesterday..."

Zhao Yueli's gaze fell on the spot where the campfire had been lit, and her voice abruptly stopped.

Everyone was listening intently to her words when they suddenly heard her voice stop, and they all looked up.

Following Zhao Yueli's gaze, everyone was startled. The campfire was gone!
Even if it's all burned, shouldn't there still be a pile of ashes left?

But there was nothing there; the ground was clean and tidy, as if there had never been any trace of a campfire.

Someone, their voice choked with emotion, asked, "Do you think we're still in the world of the living?"

Could it be that they are actually dead, and this place is just a preservation of their appearance in life, a place where their obsessions and resentments reside?

Just as everyone was scaring themselves and about to cry, the sound of voices came from not far away outside the courtyard.

"...Such a big thing happened last night, and you didn't even call me. I treated you like a little sister!"

"When did I not call you? You were the one who said that there's a difference between men and women and it wouldn't be convenient for you to go. How did that become me not calling you? Are you even being reasonable?!"

"I said I wouldn't join in your young lady's fun, but I didn't say I wouldn't come running around doing errands for the Lady Ghost when she has something to do!"

"Sycophant! Flatterer! Humph!" Su Xianyun rolled her eyes at Liu Wu with disdain and quickly took a few steps to distance herself from him.

Liu Wu's face darkened: "You brat, how dare you talk like that?"

Just as Su Xianyun was about to make a funny face, she heard Liu Wu say his killer move: "Believe it or not, I'll go back and tell Aunt Tan Ci?"

"..."

Hearing Liu Wu say that he was going to complain to her mother, Su Xianyun's eyes widened in surprise.

Seeing her like this, Liu Wu felt a surge of pride.

"Call me 'good brother,' and I won't tell Aunt Tanci..."

Before Liu Wu could finish speaking, he saw Su Xianyun's lips tremble, as if she was about to cry.

She choked back tears, saying, "I'm going to tell my benefactor that you...you bullied me!"

Liu Wu: !!! !!! !!! !!!
"Huh? No!! Sister! My dear sister, you are my real sister..."

It took Liu Wu a lot of persuasion to finally coax Su Xianyun back to her senses.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, they were met with a group of people staring in disbelief.
