Chapter 74: Pretending to be a God Without Playing the Ghost

```

Chu Yu did something very simple: she told a story.

She told Liu Ziyue a story, but this story was a bit different— it was a ghost story.

The content of the story was about a wealthy prodigal who reveled in pleasure every day without returning home. One day, drunk and tipsy, he returned home to find his father had breathed his last, but he didn't pay any attention and had him buried carelessly. However, every night thereafter, a fierce ghost caused trouble; it turned out to be his resentful father's spirit. It frightened the prodigal so much that he couldn't sleep at night and eventually his family was ruined and he himself perished.

As the prodigal lay seriously ill in bed at death's door, he vaguely remembered that when he was drunk in the past, a family servant had come to ask him to see his father for the last time, but he had refused. Now, he was going to die alone.
