When he met the last holder of the Bad Luck Lipstick, Su Zimo learned that it could not only fulfill the holderâs wishes, but also attract malicious spirits. To a certain extent, it would also make the lipstick holder become more and more greedy, more aggressive, and more impulsive.
It was like someone who was just introduced to gambling. At the beginning, they would tell themselves that gambling was a path of no return, and they understood that there were countless people already stuck on it. They just played casually, try it out, and stop immediately after playing it once!
But that kind of thing was like drugs. They would gradually become addicted. They would become more greedy for the payouts from gambling, and they would eventually become hopeless gamblers.
In the end, those gamblers would eventually have behavioral issues and even mental illness.
Even ordinary gambling would induce such changes in people, not to mention the Bad Luck Lipstick that was appraised as a three-star ghost tool, ne?
Under its influence, where would Su Yiâs normal spirit go? Thoughts that ordinary people could completely restrain, problems that ordinary people could think through rationally â to Su Yiâs mind, they were like rocks falling from the top of a mountain, faster and faster, faster and faster, until thereâs no way to stop them!
When Su Zimo noticed Su Yiâs eyes became strange when looking at him, Su Zimo guessed that she may do something to him. Ghost Umbrella was staying behind him, though, so he wasnât afraid of anything.
The malicious spirits that the Bad Luck Lipstick attracts arenât very strong. Theyâre probably not even as good as the dried fish snacks that Ghost Umbrella usually makes.
[Boss, you really have a physique that people hate, ah~]
Ghost Umbrella also noticed Su Yiâs change, but he didnât do anything directly as he did with Su Zixiang just now. Instead, he watched Su Yi like a drama.
This naive girl thought a three-star ghost cool could hurt his boss? Ignorance really is bliss, ah!
Ghost Umbrella claimed himself to be the top ten most obedient employees in the store. <sup>1</sup> He wouldnât do anything without Su Zimoâs orders. He just taught a lesson to that little arrogant trainer. It was also because that guy dared to stare at his precious boss that he cherished. He tried to scare him, so he would definitely not be polite.
If Su Zimo personally ordered him to deal with Su Zixiang, Ghost Umbrellaâs first target would be his squinty eyes.
What? They werenât squinty?
Regardless, Ghost Umbrella could see that the other party had ill intentions!
In short, since neither Ghost Umbrella nor Su Zimo interrupted her, Su Yi successfully left the table and walked to the bathroom under the guidance of an apathetic and cold maid wearing glasses.
Perhaps because of her guilty conscience, Su Yi felt that the maid would glance at her in contempt from time to time. Her apathy must be because she looked down on her! And the reason she hated her was definitely because Su Zimo, the head of the Su family, looked unpleasant to her!
To put it concisely, that person called Su Zimo was the problem!
Otherwise she wouldnât make up her mind and do it!
Su Yi held the lipstick firmly in her trembling hands, then looked at herself in the bathroom mirror.
Since becoming Su Zixiangâs girlfriend, Su Yi had been willing to spend money on herself. The skin care products and cosmetics she used on her face were expensive, so even if she was in a conundrum, her makeup was still as she left it. It was almost perfect.
Su Yi took a few deep breaths, then raised her still-trembling hands, opened her lipstick, and painted two more lines on her red lips.
Because of her nervousness, however, Su Yi painted it somewhat crookedly. Looking at the red color beyond the line of her lips, she quickly picked up a tissue next to the faucet and wiped at it, only to find that the color of the lipstick wasnât easy to erase. After the tissue was damp with water, the red color spread to the corners of her mouth.
Su Yi panicked there for a long time. She had always waited for the lipstick to fade away slowly; she had never erased it in such a panic.
After waiting for a long time, Su Yiâs face in the mirror was flushed and feverish, and her hair was indescribably messy.
When she steadied herself, the lipstick on her lips had already faded, but her idea to get rid of Su Zimo hadnât faded at all. She even felt that Su Zimo had caused her embarrassment!
At that time, no matter what happened, it would be Su Zimoâs fault.
âHelp me get rid of that person. Get rid of the Su family head, Su Zimo. Get rid of him immediately. Make him disappear entirely from this world!â Su Yi enunciated every word, ensuring that her wish would completely obliterate Su Zimo.
Su Yi couldnât see ghosts, so she didnât know what she attracted when she made the wish, but she felt the temperature in the bathroom drop. It was the kind of biting, icy chill that hit suddenly in winter. It made Su Yi curl up in an instant, almost unable to stand steadily.
But this strange situation also affirmed to Su Yi that her wish was effective!
If the lipstick couldnât fulfill her wish, then nothing strange would happen to her. So even though she didnât know how the lipstick would help her get rid of Su Zimo, at least her plan was already underway.
The joy in her heart suppressed her panic. She carefully supported herself on the bathroom wall to stand steadily, then opened the door to the bathroom and walked out.
After the door opened, the chill around Su Yi didnât disappear. The staff walking around were clearly dressed in thin clothes; Su Yi seemed to be the only one living in winter, wanting to wrap herself in a quilt.
The cold feeling even intensified.
However, although Su Yi herself could only feel the cold, when Su Zimo and the trainer at the dining table saw Su Yi walking by, their expressions were complicated.
Although Su Yi worked hard to persevere, the extreme temperature was almost beyond the scope of her tolerance. Su Yi couldnât help but tremble while walking slowly. Purple frostbite appeared on her exposed arms and her lips whose color had faded purpled in the chill.
She just put on some makeup. How could she suddenly become afflicted with a terminal illness?
Su Gan, who wasnât a trainer, couldnât help but think similarly.
Su Zimo and the other trainer could see that Su Yiâs body had many traces of malicious spirits.
A black-haired and red-clothed ghost with no face caressed Su Yi like a lover. Her long black hair was long enough to wrap around Su Yiâs body, which was the source of Su Yiâs chill.
A mischievous ghost child with no face covered Su Yiâs eyes like a prank, blowing in her ears from time to time.
There was a fleshy face on Su Yiâs originally fair thighs. That face kept winking at Su Zimo and the others; the frequency of its movements were the same as those of Su Yiâs trembling legs.
Su Yiâs shadow on the white wall appeared as a tall man. Although it was only a shadow, they could see the ghostâs short hair and muscles. The most important thing to note was that one of the ghostâs hands was dragging a very large axe. The shadow of the axe was clearly visible.
It was a ghost attracted by Su Yiâs wish.
âStop!â Su Zixiang immediately stopped Su Yi from moving closer. âStand there. Donât come any closer.â
Su Yi didnât understand what happened, but she subconsciously obeyed Su Zixiangâs words. The shadow on the wall and the other ghosts on her body also stopped and raised their âheadsâ to look toward Su Zixiang.
âIt seems that your ghost-attracting physique is causing trouble again.â Su Zixiang frowned. âI didnât expect that there would even be ghosts in Shoushan.â
Su Yi immediately became afraid when she heard Su Zixiangâs words.
âIs there a way for them to see those ghosts?â Su Zimo asked Ghost Umbrella in a soft voice while sitting there.
[Piece of cake.] Ghost Umbrella snapped his fingers dramatically.
Su Yi didnât immediately see the ghosts after Ghost Umbrellaâs actions, but she⌠even the other ordinary people at the dining table heard a spooky voice talking.
[Almost there. As long as we kill the human sitting there, we should be able to eat this woman.]
[Donât worry. Weâll help this woman kill that Su Zimo first, and then weâll divide it equally.]
