Chapter 53: So freaky! (2/2)
“Did you secretly try to allow a ghost to enter your body again?” Grandmother Meng solemnly questioned me.
I blankly stared at her, “Of course not! Didn’t you say that I should only do it under your supervision? ….what? Did something happen to me?”
“Unfavourable blood, pale complexion, dark eye socket…”
Deep down, I thought to myself...Are you sure it’s not due to Suyang’s torture?
“Based on your current state, if you didn’t physically give a ghost permission to enter your body, then the ghost must have attempted multiple times to enter your body without your consent. Fortunately, she didn’t succeed.”
Grandmother Meng’s words were too horrifying. I felt goosebumps all over my arm. All of a sudden, everywhere began to feel very cold…
“So are you saying that Xu Weishan secretly tried to enter my body? Why?”
“You dripped your blood for her. That is equivalent to signing a contract. She has the rights to enter your body. From the looks of it, she had evil intentions and wanted to replace you to continue living in this world!”
“So freaky?! Thinking back, there was a time when I was out. Originally, I was totally fine, but suddenly everything became very blurry. By the time I woke up, I was at the hospital. Was that related to her?”
“I think so. You lost consciousness because the ghost wanted to enter your body and forcefully dominate your consciousness. Fortunately, she was unfamiliar with the procedure and failed.” Grandmother Meng leaned back against her chair as she frankly stated.
Who would’ve thought Xu Weishan was such a terrifying person? I was kindhearted enough to help her, yet she wanted to replace me? What’s the difference between this and killing me?
“So what’s going to happen to me now? Do I have to hide from her forever?” I frantically glanced at Grandmother Meng a few times. She seemed so relaxed that I began to stomp my feet, “This is related to my life! Can you attach more importance to it?”
“Don’t worry….the contract will naturally lose its effectiveness as time passes. Meanwhile, wear this for self-protection.”
Grandmother Meng handed me a necklace. She said it could prevent ghosts from getting near me.
I held onto the ugly necklace that had a ghost drawn on it and thought to myself. Oh God! How can I be so unlucky? I was targetted and used by an evil ghost. What’s even more pitiful is that my life is dependent on a necklace.
This was the first time I felt like the path home from Grandmother Meng’s was so endless.
Underneath the streetlamp, I could see a drunken ghost. He was holding an empty liquor bottle. It could be a dangerous weapon...stay further from him...stay further from him..
Furthermore, recently, there was a car accident around here. As a result, there was a new ghost around. He had only passed away a few days ago, so he didn’t want to leave this world. I must stay further from him….stay further from him…
Also, I always saw the high school girl ghost at the intersection. She was holding onto her report card. Ah! She made eye contact with me….no…. Must stay further away from her...stay further away from her…
All these ghosts I was familiar with suddenly seemed so evil. Why are they watching me? Do they want to replace me too?
Due to my unstable emotions, I didn’t even look at my hot ghost bodyguard’s face when I had returned back to the apartment.
Remember, my hot bodyguard’s face is his everything! That’s the reason why I keep him around!
Now, I was even afraid to make eye contact with my ghost pets. I had shrank my body into the sofa as I watched them play. Normally, I would be gazing at them with a satisfied expression. But today, I kept thinking that they want to replace me. What if I end up on the newspaper? Headline: Wow! A woman that acts like a dog!
Simply imagining it was nauseating.
Suyang’s shoes were by the entrance. I assumed he was busy in his own room.
I turned on all the lights in the living room as I continuously stroked the necklace with my fingertips.
For the past 25 years, this was the first time I had encountered a ghost that wanted to harm me. This shock will take me a long time to get over. As the saying goes, “Once you’ve been bitten by a snake, you’ll be afraid of a rope for ten years.”
“Merciful Buddha... Merciful Buddha….” I muttered.
Before my butt could warm my seat, my cell phone rang. I was startled. It was an unknown number.
“Hello….?”
“I know you’ve been watching me.”
