"I give you this box. I hope you can accept it."
As he spoke, Su Chen moved the big box forward and placed it in front of Xiaolin.
The sunlight shone obliquely into the vegetable stall, hitting the large box in Su Chen's hand, leaving a long shadow.
He put the box down gently, as if he was afraid of breaking the quiet afternoon, afraid of breaking the scene of their farewell.
Chen Hao's voice came slowly from the talisman in Hu Tao's hand. The voice was a little hoarse and tired: "If you accept this box, I will have no regrets."
Xiao Lin stood by the window, the sunlight outlined a golden silhouette for him. He turned around and looked at the talisman in Hu Tao's hand with complicated eyes. The corners of his mouth slightly raised, but his eyes were puzzled: "Chen Hao, what do you mean? It's been so long since we broke up, and you suddenly sent me such a big box?"
There was a hint of a smile in Chen Hao's voice, but more of a deep sadness.
His voice seemed to come from far away, with a sense of distance: "Hey, you guessed it right, there is indeed something wrong with my head. In fact, there is one thing I have been hiding from you, but I don't want to have any regrets, so after thinking about it, I decided to tell you."
Xiao Lin's eyes became tense. He walked to the table and gently touched the talisman, as if he could feel Chen Hao's warmth. His voice was trembling: "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Chen Hao was silent for a moment, his voice became low, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart: "Actually, I have hidden something from you. I will have surgery tomorrow, and the doctor said that the success rate is less than 10%. Maybe... this is the last time we talk."
Xiao Lin's body trembled, his fingers tightly grasped the talisman, and tears flashed in his eyes. His voice was filled with an undisguised shock: "Are you kidding? Why didn't you tell me in person?"
Chen Hao's voice was a little choked up: "Inside the box are the gifts I picked for you. There are gifts for every year. You will know when you open it."
Xiao Lin opened the box with trembling hands. Inside were various exquisite gifts, each of which carried Chen Hao's love.
Her tears fell and her voice trembled: "Why is this? Why are you doing this?"
Chen Hao's voice was filled with pain: "I'm sorry, Xiaolin, I don't want you to know, I don't want to make you sad."
Xiao Lin's heart was broken. He hugged the box tightly, tears falling down: "You bastard, why did you do this to me?"
Xiao Lin: "Is this why you broke up with me? Asshole! Why didn't you tell me?"
Chen Hao: "I'm sorry..."
Xiaolin: "When did it happen?"
Chen Hao: "I only found out about it a week before we broke up. I thought about it for a long time, but I still couldn't tell you."
Xiao Lin: "Why is the success rate of surgery so low? Why don't you come to see me?"
Chen Hao: "Don't ask...it's just a very difficult disease to cure."
Xiao Lin: "Then why did you lie to me that you liked someone else? You told me not to keep you from doing this."
Chen Hao: "I'm sorry, those are not my true words."
Xiao Lin: "You said I got fatter and uglier, and you no longer liked me, and you found someone better than me. You made me very sad, do you know that? Chen Hao!"
Chen Hao said word by word: "I'm sorry, my baby is the cutest Xiao Lin child in the world, I will never dislike him. Silly, I didn't mean it, I just said harsh words to you to make you give up. Forgive me, okay? Don't be sad."
Chen Hao: "You are still so young, I can't drag you down. I just hope I can meet you earlier in the next life."
Chen Hao: "When I think that I may never see you again after tomorrow, I can't stop crying."
Chen Hao: "Forgive my selfishness, baby. I didn't want you to know, but I didn't expect it would still make you sad."
Xiao Lin: "Where are you now? I'll come find you."
Chen Hao: "Don't come..."
Xiao Lin: "Come on, tell me. You tricked me last time, you have to apologize to me in person."
Chen Hao: "Silly, don't come to me. I'm very ugly now, and my hair is shaved off."
Chen Hao: "Besides, I am already very satisfied to be able to say goodbye to you before the operation. When I am not around, you must take good care of yourself, okay?"
Xiao Lin: "Don't be like this, I won't dislike you, I just want to accompany you."
Chen Hao: "Haven't you always wanted a home? I may not be able to give you a home...but there are 500,000 Mora in the box that I saved."
Chen Hao: "Although it's not much, I don't have time anymore, so I can only ask you to save some more."
Xiao Lin: "I don't want it, I want you to give it to me personally!"
Chen Hao: "I'm sorry, baby, I don't have time. I have to go into the operating room tomorrow morning."
Xiao Lin: "Which hospital are you in?"
Chen Hao: "I'm going to do the final checkup soon."
Chen Hao: "I love you, Xiaolin, goodbye..."
Xiao Lin: "Wait for me, please wait for me!"
Chen Hao's voice became weaker and weaker: "I love you, Xiaolin. I just hope you can live well."
Chen Hao looked at Xiao Lin. The ghost hidden in the spell smiled and said, "I am going to a very far place, but I will always protect you until the end of your life."
Xiao Lin cried bitterly: "Chen Hao, you can't leave me!"
Chen Hao's voice gradually disappeared, leaving Xiaolin alone there, tears streaming down her face, her heart dead.
Hu Tao looked at the couple with mixed feelings. She knew that this was their final farewell.

Chapter 154: Rock King Emperor? Rock King Princess?
The sunset over Liyue Harbor was as red as blood, dyeing the entire harbor golden red.
Kobayashi hugged the wooden box tightly. The exquisite patterns carved on it seemed to dance in the sunset.
At this time, a breeze blew gently, bringing a slight coolness.
Kurumi stood there, watching Xiaolin hugging the wooden box tightly, tears in her eyes falling like beads from a broken string.
Her eyes were filled with endless sadness and reluctance.
Hu Tao felt mixed emotions. Looking at Xiao Lin's appearance, she couldn't help but recall the moment when she lost her grandfather.
The pain was like a knife cutting my heart, as if the whole world had collapsed.
She knew that Xiaolin had already regarded Chen Hao as his own relative, and now hearing this news, he must be in great pain.
Hu Tao gently walked to Xiao Lin's side, stretched out her hand, and gently patted her shoulder, her tone full of care and warmth: "Xiao Lin, I know you are very sad now, but you have to believe that Chen Hao has always been in your heart, and he doesn't want to see you like this."
Xiao Lin raised her head, tears in her eyes not yet dried. She choked and forced a smile: "Thank you, Master Hu."
Hu Tao looked at Xiao Lin and felt a little sad. She turned to Su Chen and Mona and said, "Let's go to the side and give Xiao Lin some time to calm down."
Su Chen and Mona nodded and followed Hu Tao to the side silently. The three of them stood there, not saying a word, just looking at Xiao Lin quietly.
Hu Tao felt mixed emotions. She knew that this pain would not disappear in a short time.
She seemed to have made some kind of decision deep in her heart.
Su Chen looked at Hu Tao and felt a little reluctant. He knew that Hu Tao had also experienced such pain, so she could understand Xiao Lin's feelings.
Mona gently pulled the corner of Hu Tao's clothes and whispered, "Hu Tao, let's go first and give Xiao Lin some time."
Kurumi nodded, and the three of them quietly left, leaving Xiaolin alone to calm down.
After they left, they walked side by side on the streets of Liyue Harbor.
Hu Tao seemed to sense their mood. She gently pulled Su Chen's sleeve and said in a quirky tone, "Come on, I'll take you to see the most beautiful scenery in Liyue Harbor."
The three of them walked along the stone path, and Hu Tao introduced them as they walked: "This is Wan Ming Tang, a very famous restaurant in our Liyue. Over there is Rong Fa Shop, which has a lot of daily goods."
"And here is the Adventurer's Association. Many adventurers accept daily commissions here."
Her words were always filled with pride and love for Liyue Harbor.
Mona looked at the surrounding scenery and couldn't help but sigh: "This place is really beautiful, it's different from any place I've been to before."
Walnut smiled and said, "There are many stories here. When you have time, I can tell you."
Suddenly, Hu Tao blinked and smiled mischievously, "By the way, Mr. Su Chen, don't forget that you promised to buy our Wangsheng Hall's special meal!"
There is always a passion for sales in her words, as if she is afraid of missing out on any customer.
Su Chen also looked helpless. He didn't expect that Hu Tao was still thinking about selling the Wangshengtang meal at this time.
But it’s also good this way, as I can go directly to the Hall of Rebirth, and if I’m lucky, I might even be able to meet Grandpa Zhongli.
After a while, the three of them arrived at the Hall of Rebirth.
From the outside, the Hall of Rebirth looks like an ancient building, but once you walk in, the decoration inside is also very special.
There are exquisite calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, each of which represents a story.
The living room in the center is gray, as if you are in a small cave.
Walnut pointed to the coffee table nearby and said, "This is the characteristic of our Hall of Rebirth. Every piece of furniture is handmade and absolutely unique."
"After all, the carpenters in our Wangsheng Hall have excellent craftsmanship. Not only coffins, but also some daily furniture are made by our carpenters in Wangsheng Hall."
Su Chen and Mona were both attracted by the decoration here and couldn't help but praise it again and again.
Seeing this, Walnut smiled proudly: "How is it, do you like it? If you want, I can recommend our special set meal to you."
Su Chen smiled and said, "Okay, I'll take a look now and reserve the coffin I want to use."
Hu Tao nodded, checked his pair of bright plum blossom pupils, then turned to Zhongli, a guest of the Wangsheng Hall, who was sitting beside him and drinking tea calmly, and said, "Zhongli, please pour a cup of tea for our two respected customers."
Zhongli was sitting there at this moment, like a quiet sculpture.
He has an upright figure and a handsome face, as if he is a masterpiece specially carved by God.
His eyes are deep, like the sea of stars, full of wisdom and calmness.
Although his clothes have been modernized, they still exude the noble aura of an ancient emperor.
The black robe was dotted with golden lines, and every detail revealed his nobility and dignity.
His manners were elegant, and every movement was very graceful, full of rhythm and tempo.
Although his origins were unknown, he knew every etiquette and every rule. He sat in the Hall of the Dead and was able to perform the ceremonies of heaven, earth and all things, as if he were the guardian of this world.
His character combines the essence of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism. He has the Confucian sense of responsibility for the common people, the Taoist detachment, and the Buddhist detachment. Although he is the King of Rocks, he does not pursue power and status, he just wants to do something for the common people.
However, such a noble man dared to go out with nothing in his sleeves. He didn't care about money or power, he only cared about the peace and tranquility of the world.
Whenever he needed to buy something or pay something, he would always smile and say, "I have no money, so I'm sorry to bother you this time."
Zhongli is like the purest being in the world, without any impurities or stains. He is like a bright star, illuminating every corner of the world.
In the Hall of Rebirth, whenever there are guests, he will personally greet them, using his deep eyes and poetic words to show them the highest respect. He does not care about the other person's identity and status, he only cares about the other person's heart.
When Su Chen saw his "old acquaintance" Zhongli, he felt inexplicably excited.
I heard that Emperor Geo has a female form, she must be very beautiful, right?
Princess Rock King...sounds pretty good.
If I could make the Emperor transform into the Princess, then I can hehehehe...
However, Zhongli was unaware of the crisis at this time. He just smiled and quickly poured tea for Su Chen and Mona.
Then Hu Tao sat next to Su Chen and began to discuss the purchase of the package.

Chapter 155 Cute Little Qiqi
"Mr. Su Chen, are you sure you want to purchase our Wangsheng Hall's special set meal?" Hu Tao's eyes sparkled with joy and her tone was full of enthusiasm.
Su Chen showed a sly smile, nodded and said softly: "Yes, I want to customize a large coffin, big enough to accommodate two people."
The cunning light in Hu Tao's eyes became more obvious. She pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, such a special request? But it doesn't matter. Wangsheng Hall has everything. As long as you have any needs, we can meet them!"
Su Chen took a deep breath, and a hint of determination flashed in his eyes: "I hope to put a soft mattress and a good pillow in the coffin."
The cunning light in Hu Tao's eyes was instantly replaced by surprise. She opened her mouth wide, seemingly unable to believe it: "This... This is the first time I've heard of such a request in my long time in the funeral industry."
Hu Tao opened her mouth slightly in surprise, wide enough to fit one of Su Chen's sausages in.
Having worked in the funeral industry for so long, this was the first time she had heard of such a request. However, thinking of the principle that the customer is God, Hu Tao agreed without hesitation.
Su Chen smiled slightly: "Everyone has their own pursuits and dreams. This is just a small wish of ours."
Walnut regained her quirky personality and said with a smile: "In this case, I will try my best to meet your requirements, but such customization may take some time. Is this okay with you?"
Su Chen nodded: "No problem, as long as it can be done, time is not a problem."
