Lily understood after Josh’s explanation, "The Holy Mother implies that she is too kind to have her own bottom line, right?" Josh nodded. "Yes, for example, if everyone suggests that drug dealers deserve to die. The Holy Mother will stand in line with drug dealers, telling everyone how pitiful they are; we should forgive them." Josh felt sick as he talked, "The Holy Mother, with her uncountable stupidity, is far more disgusting. They have many forms now; I will give you more examples when we run into them." Lily nodded.
Blair took note of any changes to be made to the dress and saw Lily and Josh hiding in the corner, muttering. He said softly, "Mr. Anthony, are these your children? They are adorable." Anthony did not explain, "Thank you."
Blair focused on the wedding dress and exhorted, "I will make the modification today as there are only five days left before the wedding day. Mrs. Crawford has lost so much weight since a month ago. Mr. Anthony should take care of her, as women will experience anxiety prior to marriage." Anthony frowned slightly and said, "I see. It’s none of your business." Blair took a brief pause before continuing, perhaps sensing his hostility towards him.
Lisa took off the wedding dress, and Blair would stay in the cloakroom for the whole day to finish his work. Lily and Josh peeked inside the room. Lily said, "Josh, when you encounter a malignant spirit, you will need to freeze her! Follow my lead and say, ‘Hey! I am superior to you!" Josh was confused. "Slow it down!" They continued to mutter.
The Holy Mother Ghost was different from other ghosts; she knew that Lily and Josh could see her. She could sense that Josh had several ‘weapons’ on him, and there was an aura from Lily, as if something very powerful was hidden. She looked at them with pity on her face and said, "I see you! Why do you pursue this career when you are so young?" She believed that these two kids had received Taoist training since they were young. How pitiful. They should be the happiest kids. Why would The Crawford Family force them to study Taoism? The Holy Mother Ghost couldn’t help but cast a pitying glance at them. "Are you guys here for me? You can catch me, but remember to let me go afterwards. Can you promise me?" She was not even planning to run away; she would let them take her to make the kids feel better.
Josh was speechless. I haven’t even tried the spell that I just learned from Lils! He ignored The Holy Mother Ghost and cast the spell, "Hey! I am superior to you!" The Holy Mother Ghost was stunned. Blair was caught off guard too; the needle almost pierced his finger. He turned around and walked to them, saying, "So it’s you guys. Why are you here? Uncle was startled," he said as he patted Josh’s head.
Josh said unhappily, "Don’t touch my head!" Blair quickly apologised, saying, "I am sorry; I should ask before I touch your head." Josh said in a daze, "Uh, it’s nothing." Lily thought to herself, Uncle Blair was such a gentleman! How could there be any evil in such a person?
Lily asked, "Uncle Blair, how long have you been in this industry? Did you design the wedding dress that Aunt Lisa is wearing?" It turns out that she is Mr. Anthony’s niece, not his child. Blair was only aware that there were a few children in The Crawford family, but not the finest details. He replied, "I didn’t design it. This wedding dress's true designer has passed away. It is an eternal classic and has never been outdated. It is stunningly beautiful in every era." This was the most valuable part of the dress, above and beyond the value of the diamond itself. Blair was excited when he talked about the wedding dress, "To us, this wedding dress is a sacred existence! As a designer, I am really honoured to be invited by the Crawford Family to design this wedding dress." He was humble, and as someone who had been invited by the Crawford Family, he surely had some skill.
Lily smiled and said, "I see. I thought that you were the designer of this wedding dress." Blair respectfully denied, "I am not." Lily couldn't figure it out. Such a humble attitude... What had this individual previously committed to be followed by The Holy Mother Ghost?
