- Chapter 68 (1/2)
The Fragrance And the Beauties
The white-clothed female ghost’s face became red hot when they were invited into Ning Fan’s house whereas the red-clothed female ghost spat out a breath.
“This Zhou Ming, what other tricks is he trying to do…?”
Her tone was fierce but she didn’t feel any hostile intent from Ning Fan’s tone.
Yesterday, despite Ning Fan’s friendly tone, she could feel some hidden expression within. Tonight, his tone was as friendly just like a friend’s. She had grown accustomed to the fickleness of the world, which shaped her sharp judgement in one’s tone.
It seemed that for tonight, Ning Fan wasn’t going to harm the two of them. In which case, she didn’t mind going into his house because she really wanted to know what kind of pills Ning Fan was concocting. If they were able to treat her injuries, she would seize it straightaway!
On the contrary, the white-clothed female ghost was walking gingerly, as if she was shy to go into Ning Fan’s house.
“Honghong sister, I think we shouldn’t go in. I… I am scared…” The female ghost in white was tugging the sleeve of the red-clothed female ghost and pleaded.
“What are you afraid of? He won’t eat you anyway. Hold on for a second…who gave you the permission to call me by my name?!” The red-clothed female ghost was offended. She gently knocked the forehead of the other female ghost and pulled her towards the house forcefully.
Inside the house was the decorations and furniture left by the previous medical officer, Huang Xie. Besides the bottles of pills, everything in the house was tidied and cleaned decently, which made it an entirely different place as compared to Huang Xie’s sloppy behaviour.
The red-clothed female ghost had unconsciously raised her impression of Ning Fan when she saw the cleanliness of the house. It indicated that Ning Fan was a conscientious and meticulous person. The conscientiousness of a person could be determined from how meticulous one handle and arrange his things.
Then, her eyes met Ning Fan teasing eyes. She was a woman with a shrewd temper. Instead of avoiding his eyesight, she gave an evil smirk to him. However, blood flowed out of her bloody eyes as she smiled, it didn’t show any friendliness but scariness.
“Miss Honghong does have a distinctive smile. Zhou has to admit that only a few can smile in this way among all the beautiesthat I have met before. It carves a deep impression in my mind.”
Ning Fan was apparently teasing her but it didn’t sound disgusting and she wasn’t angered.
This was because there was virtually no men that would tease her.
However, she was reluctant that her maiden name was called by him. There wasn’t any proper reasons as to why it was that way. She just didn’t want him to call her that way.
“Don’t you call me miss Honghong! Do I know you very well?! Call me Ning Honghong!”
“Your surname is Ning?” Ning Fan was stunned that she had the same surname as his.
“Why? Are you unsatisfied with my surname?” Ning Honghong pointed her sharp and blood-red fingernail at him and grumbled.
“How dare I…Zhou only feel that miss Honghong’s name is very nice. Ning Honghong…Hong means red, it’s a good match with the surname Ning. Judging by the name, I think Miss Honghong must be a lady with outspoken and forthright views.”
Ning Fan’s praise had affected Ning Honghong emotionally. Her bad opinions of him started to reduce.
Then, he shifted his gaze at the white-clothed female ghost and found her slightly amusing. Was her bashful behavior because of the fact that in her previous life she was a young miss who didn’t leave her boudoir?
The longer he looked at her, the more he could feel a particular feeling from her. There was some kind of familiarity from her, as though he had seen her somewhere before.
Female corpse!
Ning Fan was startled. He finally understood why there was a lower hostile intent when he encountered the two of them. Not just their temperament fitted his taste, the white-clothed female ghost’s face in particular was nearly similar to the female corpse in the green coffin.
Could she be the soul of that corpse?
‘No. There shouldn’t be a relation between them. The Qi of hers isn’t the same…’ Ning Fan said to himself and gave up the absurd idea.
He shook his head and said to Ning Honghong with a smile, “Miss Honghong has the name that fit her characteristic. What about the celestial beauty in white?”
“She is called…” The moment Ning Honghong tried to open her mouth, she was stopped by the white-clothed female ghost with her hand and pleaded.
“Sister, don’t tell him…”
“Alright. Sister won’t tell him. You are called ‘Mu Weiliang’ right?…” Ning Honghong held her chuckle.
“En, Sister, you are a good person. Please don’t tell him.” The female ghost in white was shivering.
Ning Fan couldn’t help but laugh after hearing their conversation. He had never laughed as relaxingly as now since he had undertook the Evil Cultivation.
“Mu Weiliang…it’s a good name…I don’t admire the spring as much as how I admire you, Weiliang. I like this name.”
As soon as Ning Fan’s voice faded, the female ghost in white yelped. She gaped at Ning Fan in disbelief.
“How…how do you know my name?”
She was clumsy and always went blank. It was her inborn limitation, but it made her look cute.
Ning Honghong and Mu Weiliang. The thought that these two female ghosts were correlated to his life had never crossed his mind. He never imagined that they would meet in such a coincidental situation. It must be fate that couldn’t be explained or calculated.
He wanted to converse with them a little longer but Ning Honghong was impatient. She started to patronize Ning Fan while her eyes were captivated by the bottle of pill in Ning Fan’s hands. She was licking her lips.
“Zhou Ming, what revolution is the pill that you have concocted?”
As Ning Honghong approached Ning Fan, the fragrance of the pill became richer and showed some subtle healing effect on her abdominal wound.
Could it be Zhou Ming was concocting a Third Revolution pill just now?
She gasped for a breath of air and locked on Ning Fan’s eyes expectantly. No girls would be willing to leave wounds or scars on their bodies unattended. Her scar was a big hole in her abdomen, making her broken intestine visible from the outside.
“Third Revolution!”
