â`
Xia Han sat dejectedly on the bed, holding the key in his hand, his thoughts drifting far away.
Sigh.
What to do if Little Beauty doesnât like him?
Just as Xia Han sighed for the 108th time, a sudden chill appeared beside him, followed by being pushed down; a cold body covered him, and the chill spread over his lips.
Xia Hanâs eyes widened as he recognized the person kissing him, and he gave up struggling.
Little Beauty is kissing him!
Happy.
Xia Han went along with Chuzhengâs kiss, but gradually he felt his body couldnât support him any longerâit was too coldâ¦
He was nearly frozen stiff.
âLittle Beauty⦠slow downâ¦â Xia Han murmured.
Chuzheng let go of him, moved away from his body, and wrapped him up in a blanket.
âVery cold?â
âNot cold.â Xia Han shivered violently.
The cold presence flowed through his body, unable to warm up. This kind of contact was much colder than physical touch.
âStubborn.â Chuzheng called his bluff, controlling the roomâs thermostat to increase the temperature.
Wrapped in the blanket, Xia Han shivered as he got up: âLittle Beauty, why did you suddenly kiss me?â
âCanât I kiss?â You kissed me already; if I donât kiss back, wouldnât I be at a loss?
âCan.â Xia Han nodded: âYou can kiss however you want.â
âOnly Little Beauty can kiss.â
Xia Han didnât forget to add that afterthought.
Chuzheng prepared hot water for him to soak in. Worried that something might really happen to his body and he wouldnât be able to be kissed by Little Beauty, he obediently soaked for a while.
By the time Xia Han came out, Chuzheng was no longer in the room.
Xia Han looked around, his face full of disappointment.
Howeverâ¦
If a kiss can be like this, what about doing other things?
Xia Han considered whether he should die himself so he could cohabit with Little Beauty.
â
The house Chuzheng bought was an independent villa, fully furnished, ready to move in.
Xia Han had no idea how much such a house would cost; poverty limited his imagination.
Anyway, his two million probably wasnât even close to enough.
Can a ghost be so rich?
âThis place is so big.â Xia Han followed Chuzheng along the villaâs pathway.
Chuzheng nodded, this place is quite valuable. If Bastard gives more time next time, she could buy a few more and change residences every week without repeating.
Xia Han tried to hold Chuzhengâs hand.
Chuzheng avoided it, and Xia Han stopped: âCanât I hold it?â
Chuzheng squeezed her fingers slightly: âCold.â
âItâs okay.â Xia Han took her hand, his young voice clear and firm: âI am not afraid.â
Chuzheng: ââ¦â
I am afraid!
What if you die!!!
I donât want to rewind and start over!
The touch was indeed not as cold, and Xia Han felt an inexplicable heartache: âLittle Beauty, do you feel cold?â
Chuzhengâs response was cold: âNot cold.â
âShall I hug you?â Xia Han said: âIâm very warm.â
Chuzheng pressed on his head: âI am a ghost; no matter how much you hug, itâs still cold.â
âBut you can feel my warmth!â Xia Han exclaimed: âI can be your little heater, how about that?â
âNot so good.â The little heater wouldnât last but a few minutes before itâs done.
ââ¦â
âLittle Beauty, look over there,â Xia Han suddenly tugged at her hand.
Chuzheng: ââ¦â When can we go back, I want to lie down!
âQuick, look.â
Chuzheng looked toward where Xia Han was pointing, and there on the lawn, a woman satâher body exuded a sinister chill so intense that even in the blazing sun, she seemed deeply unsettling.
âStrange, when I saw her last time, she wasnât like this.â
The woman was the same one who stopped Xia Han at the party last time.
â`
âYou see for yourself, Iâm going back,â Chuzheng shook him off. She didnât have the energy to watch other people here.
âLittle Beauty, are you jealous?â Xia Han hurriedly followed.
âJealous??â Chuzheng shook her head honestly: âIâm not.â
âPfft⦠Little Beauty, I find you really cute sometimes.â Xia Han may have realized that Chuzheng was somewhat impatient with how long they had been out and wanted to go back, rather than being jealous of him looking at other women.
But why did he feel somewhat disappointed?
âLittle brother.â
The woman had appeared at the edge of the lawn, calling Xia Han.
Xia Han looked at her, politely calling out, âSister?â
The woman stepped out of the lawn, her tone gentle: âMeeting you here, do you live here too?â
Chuzheng pulled Xia Han back.
But to the woman, it looked like Xia Han was backing away by himself.
Xia Han looked at Chuzheng, puzzled, silently asking her what was wrong.
âLetâs go.â
Xia Han was a bit surprised, but still said to the woman, âSister, I have something to do, I have to go.â
He quickly turned and left.
Not until the woman was out of sight did he ask Chuzheng, âLittle Beauty, whatâs wrong?â
âThereâs an evil spirit inside her body,â Chuzheng said. âStay away from her in the future.â
âOhâ¦â An evil spirit, huh? No wonder she had changed so much.
â
Chuzheng warned Xia Han to stay away from that woman, but unexpectedly, three days later, the woman came to their door.
The woman was named Yao Wei, and she lived just two villas away from them.
Yao Wei looked somewhat haggard, but because her makeup was thick, it wasnât too noticeable.
Yao Wei was very elegant in speech and behavior; it was unclear how she had attracted an evil spirit.
âJust call me Xia Han,â Xia Han said as he poured tea for Yao Wei.
Yao Wei nodded and agreed.
She glanced around and casually asked, âDo you live here alone?â
ââ¦Yeah.â But not really.
Yao Wei remembered something else and asked, âWhere is your girlfriend?â
Xia Han had blurted out a lie before, trying to get rid of her. Who knew Yao Wei would suddenly ask this question?
Xia Han glanced in Chuzhengâs direction. She was sitting on the couch opposite him and showed no reaction to this sentence.
âSheâ¦â is sitting right beside you.
âAre you guys fighting?â
Xia Han didnât speak, and he didnât dare to look at Chuzheng. They werenât exactly boyfriend and girlfriend yet, were they?
Because she hadnât agreed yet.
âGirls, just coax them a little, and theyâll be fine. Put in a little more effort,â Yao Wei advised Xia Han. âDonât always try to win an argument. Girls arenât seeking the truth; how could they not understand those reasons? They just want you to coax them.â
Chuzheng stared at Yao Wei, or rather at the ghostly presence inside Yao Weiâs body.
There was an evil spirit in her belly; she was pregnant with a ghost child.
Xia Han said she wasnât like this before, which meant this had happened recently.
Ghost pregnancies are different from human ones; some last for years, others for months.
Chuzheng didnât care how the ghost child came to be, as long as it didnât harm the Good Person Card, she would pretend not to see it.
Yep!
Didnât see, didnât see, didnât see.
Yao Wei was just like a visitor, chatting with Xia Han for a while before she got up to leave.
Xia Han saw her out, closed the door, and then asked Chuzheng.
âLittle Beauty, tell me, how did she attract a ghost?â
âI donât know,â Chuzheng was already comfortably lying on the couch.
Xia Han: ââ¦â
Was she urging him to get Yao Wei to leave quickly just so she could lie down by herself?
âCome here.â Chuzheng beckoned him with a wave.
Xia Han walked over and crouched down.
Chuzheng stretched out her claws towards his head and comfortably massaged it a few times.
Now this is what you call life!
With his hair all messed up, Xia Han wasnât sure how to express what he was thinking deep down.
Why not give him a kiss?
