âThatâŚâ Su Tong only dared to speak after Ling Yan left. âIf he really wants to eat me, will you sacrifice me?â
Moonlight shone in from the window and engulfed Ming Shu in a holy aura. She smiled. âTake a guess.â
Su Tong didnât want to guess.
She couldnât provoke this ghost. She suddenly found the hideous looking evil ghost cuter.
âLittle sister, are you asleep?â
Su Rouâs voice sounded outside the door.
Su Tong immediately replied. âNo.â
Su Rou opened the door and walked in. She scanned the room. âI heard some commotion in your room just now. Did something happen?â
Su Tong said that she had a nightmare. Su Rou pretended to be concerned for her and then left the room.
Ming Shu gave Little Red a look. Little Red understood and the two ghosts floated out of Su Tongâs room.
âWhat⌠are you all planning to do?â
âNow is the time for ghosts to party. This has nothing to do with you. Go to sleep,â Ming Shu said gently.
Su Tong swallowed. She didnât dare to ask what this ghost party was. She pulled her blanket up and told herself to go to sleep.
âMaster, how should we do this? Should we scare her?â Little Red asked Ming Shu excitedly. Ghosts loved to scare people.
âCan you have more ambition?â Ming Shu floated toward Su Rou. âHit her.â
âHuh?â
Hitting her means I have ambition?
But since Master commands it, we will hit her.
Su Rou had just lay on her bed when the light in her room flickered twice before it went off. A gush of cold air seeped into the room silently.
Su Rou touched the symbol papers under her pillow and grabbed one in her hand. She looked around the room vigilantly.
A shadow appeared in front of her suddenly. Before she could throw the symbol paper, a red shadow flashed past and her whole body was thrown off the bed by some force and slammed onto the ground.
She looked up with some effort and saw the person standing in front of her.
It was a young girl that looked really pretty.
She was wearing a gentle smile and standing in the dim light. She felt different from other ghosts. There was no Yin Qi and eerie feeling coming from her. she just seemed like a normal person⌠or maybe not.
Su Rou gritted her teeth. âWhat do you all want?! I didnât provoke you. Why are you all pestering me!â
Su Tong didnât have her amulet to protect her now. Why were the ghosts finding her?
âA meeting gift.â The young girl moved her lips slowly. Her voice was soft and gentle, like a feather floating over a lake.
Su Rou was puzzled. A gift for meeting me?
She clenched the symbol paper in her hands. If Ming Shu came closer, she would stick the symbol paper on her.
Little Red floated in from the back and sat on Su Rou. Su Rou felt a cold and heavy rock pressing down on her body.
She felt as though she was back to her first life. At that time, this was how those things always pestered her.
Ming Shu strode forward. âRemember my name. An Ge.â
An GeâŚ
It sounds familiar.
Su Rou tried to recall, but her body was too cold. It felt as though she was within a freezer. Her brain was not working.
âAhhhhhâ!â
Su Rou felt pain. She couldnât be bothered by those emotions and glared angrily at the person in front of her. If looks could kill, Ming Shu would be dead by now.
Little Red was useless now. She could only watch as Ming Shu beat Su Rou.
The symbol paper had no effect on Ming Shu. Ming Shu raised her hand and destroyed it. Then, she continued beating Su Rou.
âAre you angry?â Ming Shu forced Su Rou to look up. âIf youâre angry, thatâs best. I will come and beat you often. You must hate me. That way, youâll get prettier.â
Su Rou stared at her until her eyes almost popped out.
She couldnât understand why Ming Shu wanted to beat her and even wanted her to hate her.
Are the ghosts now all so arrogant?
[âŚ] Guest is still so violent in gaining Hatred Points. Why canât she use my idea? Guest has no sense of teamwork at all.
The Harmony System was depressed.
It made an effort to work as a team and gave some silly ideas. [Guest, why not you hit her on the face and turn her into a pigâs head? All girls like to be pretty. She will hate you more.]
Ming Shu got up slowly. She took out a mantou. âI never hit people in the face. I will lose my appetite.â
[âŚ]
You are able to eat even when you are looking at a corpse! Lies!
The Harmony Systemâs silly idea was vetoed once again.
âŚ
The next morning, Su Rou came out with panda eyes. Her whole body was aching as if she was run over by a car. She scanned the living room and immediately saw Ming Shu and Little Red occupying their sofa. Her face turned hideous. These two ghosts are too arrogant.
She looked at Mother Su. Mother Suâs expression was very normal. She didnât see the two ghosts.
As for Su Tong, she would occasionally glance in that direction. Can she see them?
Su Rouâs expression kept changing. That bitch Su Tong was actually not afraid of them? Are they a team?
âMother, I am not eating breakfast.â Su Rou grabbed her bag and walked out. She needed to find someone to capture the ghosts.
Mother Su acknowledged her and asked her to take the breakfast on the table. Su Rou took a glance, but didnât go over. She ran out of the house.
The elevator was still on a higher floor. Su Rou waited for a while, but it didnât come down. She ran down the stairs.
âGood morning.â
Su Rou almost couldnât breathe properly. The ghost that was in the living room just now was currently leaning against the gates of the condominium, waving at her while greeting her. Su Rou felt chills run through her body.
She was smiling. Yet, it made people feel cold and eerie. This feeling was scarier than any related to ghosts she met in her past life.
âWhy are you running so fast? I will not beat you today.â I have not eaten breakfast so I have no energy to beat you.
Su Rou looked at the sunlight outside and rushed out while gritting her teeth. The warm sunlight shone on her body and some of the coldness disappeared.
She ran out for a distance before she dared to look back. The ghost didnât chase her.
Su Rou flagged down a taxi and said an address.
âŚ
âThank you, Taoist master.â
âYou are welcome. Donât let her go to any place that has strong Yin Qi.â
âSure, sure.â
When Ming Shu came back after getting food from Shen Xianyue, she saw Mother Su sending Xie Hui out politely. The two of them exchanged greetings for a while before Mother Su sent Xie Hui to the elevator.
Xie Hui and Ming Shu stared at each other in the elevator.
âGhosts also use the elevator?â Xie Hui asked curiously.
âToo lazy to float.â Floating wastes my energy.
ââŚâ
Ming Shu waited for Xie Hui to go and was ready to press the button to make the elevator get back. Suddenly, a hand reached out and blocked the door of the elevator. Xie Hui popped his face in. âWhat are you doing here? Do you have any evil plans?â
âWhat does that have to do with you?â
âI am a Taoist master!â Xie Hui patted his chest. âMy job is to ensure the safety of the human world and protect humans.â
âHeheâŚâ Why donât you say that your job is to save the universe and be a superhero?
âWhat are you laughing at?â Xie Hui was displeased. âArenât you here to investigate the issue concerning the packages? Have you finished investigating it?â
