Seeing the little boy was sensible and polite, he also smiled and introduced himself first.
"Hello, my name is Shen Siyuan."
Taozi, standing by, was very curious and asked, "Who are you talking to?"
Shen Siyuan didn't answer. Instead, he held her hand, interlocking their fingers. In that instant, a little boy appeared before her eyes.
At first, she was startled, then quickly calmed down.
If it were in the past, she might have turned around and left upon encountering such a thing.
But having been with Dou Dou and the others for so long, she had long been accustomed to the existence of ghosts. Besides, with Shen Siyuan by her side, she feared no demons or ghosts.
"Does your family live nearby?" Shen Siyuan asked curiously.
Ghosts generally don't leave their home too far unless necessary, because home is the safest refuge. The outside world is full of dangers, and it is easy to collide with passersby, whose shoulders carry three fires, which can easily harm ghosts.
