Polly and Radley engaged in a fierce battle, even resorting to pulling out strands of hair.
The small ghost beast, which had somehow joined them, watched anxiously with wide eyes. It even chimed in, "Squeaky squeak!" The Harem spirit, thinking she was going to call for Lilly, instead pulled out a spirit fruit, sat down excitedly, and enjoyed the show while eating. Speedy, who had a palace on his head and had appeared out of nowhere, also sat and watched like the small ghost beast.
The Harem spirit and ghost bride exchanged glances, squatting at the door and stroking their chins.
"| bet that radish wins. It looks much stronger than Polly," the Harem spirit said.
The ghost bride, unable to resist, countered, "Then, I'm betting on Polly. Otherwise, it would be so pitiful.” The small ghost beast squeaked its support for Polly, having observed the parrot's cultured demeanor. Hence, the small ghost beast was confident the parrot would emerge victorious.

When she heard that he had come to deliver special products, she immediately took out something from her ring. She added it to the return gift prepared by her grandmother for him to take back to Melody.
Upon seeing Lilly, lvan momentarily forgot about Radley. When he got home, he suddenly remembered that his radish was still at the Crawford Mansion.
Contemplating whether to pick it up the next day, he realized it could be a good reason to visit the Crawford family. He hoped that Radley wouldn't say anything inappropriate that night and was confident that it wouldn't.
For the sake of visiting the Crawford family the next day, the usually intelligent Ivan had a moment of foolishness. He even dared to let Radley stay there for the night.
After Ivan left, Lilly headed upstairs to return to her room. To her surprise, she found all the ghosts gathered at her room door, along with the small ghost beast, Speedy, and Bellflower, who had returned at some point—all peering inside.
Lilly was dumbfounded and wondered what had caught their attention. She curiously leaned in and peeked inside.
Polly had plucked a green leaf from Radley's head, and the radish had pulled out a handful of the parrot's feathers.
The room was in chaos, and upon seeing that, Lilly's mouth twitched. "What are you doing?" Polly and Radley immediately stopped their actions. Then, the parrot quickly flew and landed on Lilly's shoulder, whimpering, "Babe! A radish bullied me. He's not playing fair!" The radish, holding its green leaf, also flew into Lilly's arms. "Ah... The young master is back. Sob! Young master, | just wanted to wait for you to come back. | didn't expect that parrot to be so intolerant of me." Polly exploded, "You're a hypocrite!" Radley retorted, "I'm not a hypocrite. I'm a radish!" Soon, the two started arguing again.
Lilly was at her wits' end, but she finally managed to calm them down.
The radish slumped on the cloudy couch, sighing tiredly. "Ah... I'm exhausted. | had to hold back my strength to fight. If it weren't for the young master—" Polly was not to be outdone and interrupted, "Really? If | hadn't held back, you would have turned into stewed radish. | would have beaten you into a pile of feathers." Radley shouted, "What did you say? Say it again!" The parrot stood smugly on Lilly's shoulder, legs apart, and said sarcastically, "Oh, you don't get it? It's exhausting talking to you.
It's like an old man carrying water under the scorching sun to water the seedlings in the village, only to find out afterward that it's someone else's field." Lilly found herself at a loss for words.
Hannah, Zachary, Josh, and Drake were left speechless.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe Harem spirit, the weakling spirit, and the ghost bride were equally taken aback by Polly's statement, sharing a collective shock.
Everyone present couldn't help but think, Polly, you're so mean! Naturally, Radley was not to be outdone and sneered, "Yes, talking to you is also tiring. It's like an old man who just married a young wife, only to find out after turning off the lights that he can't perform.” The statement left everyone in shock.
Lilly found herself speechless once again.
Pablo's eyes pierced like a knife, swiftly focusing on Radley. "Is this radish from Ivan? Send it back,” he demanded.
On the other hand, the Harem spirit's eyes lit up, wondering if someone's soulmate had been found.
Drake's expression turned cold as he pondered that Ivan couldn't possibly have forgotten such a noisy radish. Ultimately, Drake speculated that Ivan's actions must be deliberate, perhaps intending to find an excuse to visit again the following day. With that thought, Drake promptly took out his phone and prepared to call Ivan.
Radley leaped to its feet and exclaimed, "Don't call! I'l just stop talking nonsense, okay?" The Harem spirit hastily added, "Hey, Lilly just got back. So, let's not ruin the atmosphere. I'll keep an eye on this radish for you, okay?" Radley felt touched and gazed at the Harem spirit, thinking, What a kind person it is! The Harem spirit affirmed, "I think it really wants to stay here. It's not easy for everyone to get together..." The radish was astonished and thought, It understands me. Is it my soulmate? While observing the Harem spirit snatch the radish and dash away, everyone sensed there was something more to the situation.
They couldn't help but think, Harem spirit and a white radish... A fickle radish? As Hannah watched the Harem spirit sprint to the third floor, she mumbled to herself, "My uncle has been working night shifts and performing six surgeries for two consecutive days. He's still sleeping in the room upstairs..." Lilly and Josh exchanged glances, wondering, Should be fine, right? The Harem spirit reached the third floor, gently placing Radley down, and began to inquire, "Hello, little radish, have you ever heard about the mystical vibes of the blue peaks?" Surprised by her question, the radish responded, "What do you mean, 'little radish"? My name is Radley! And what are you talking about, the dance of the wind in the deep valley?" The spirit and the radish paused for three seconds, then felt an immediate connection. They declared, "Soulmates!" The ghost bride on the side was confused by their declaration.
