Chapter 239 : Petty Ghosts are Hard to Deal With 21 (1/2)

Even after roaming around for a while, Shi Sheng couldn’t find any signs of life. The surrounding area was utterly devoid of light and sound.

In the end, it was only because An Su’s IQ suddenly came online that they found their way through a bunch of twists and turns to an ancient mansion in the distance.

A motley group of people were gathered in front of the mansion. Some were wearing Taoist robes while others wore tuxedos, looking like successful people. There were still others wearing student uniforms, standing out from the rest.

Everyone was conversing in low tones, so you wouldn’t be able to hear them if you were standing further away.

The first thing that caught Shi Sheng’s eyes was Feng Jin, who stood apart from the crowd.

It was probably due to the fact that they had a contract, for Feng Jin sensed something the moment Shi Sheng arrived. He turned around to look her way and their gazes met.

The moment he saw her, Feng Jin felt something burst in his brain.

She still had managed to find her way here in the end.

He scanned the surroundings. Once he’d made sure no one was paying attention to him, he subtly separated from the crowd and stalked over to Shi Sheng.

He caught Shi Sheng’s hands and pressed her against the wall, growling in a low voice, “Why are you so disobedient?”

Shi Sheng blinked and pouted her lips. “Come on, if you wanna kiss me, go ahead! I don’t mind! I won’t even ask you to take responsibility!”

An Su, “…” ‘Ghost-jiejie, your dignity’s fallen off! But Ghost-jiejie and Mr Feng do make a good pair…’

Xiao Bai, “…” ‘I’m pretty sure she’s a ghost, right? And that guy is a human?’

Feng Jin’s lips twitched. He tightened his grip on her shoulder before releasing her once more. With a dark face, he took a charm out and pasted it on her forehead.

Shi Sheng reached out to pull it off. “What’re you doing? I’m not a jiangshi[1].”

‘You stuck it on my forehead!’

“Do you want to follow me or not?” Feng Jin looked at her frostily.

Shi Sheng felt quite conflicted. “Isn’t there any other way?”

“No.”

Shi Sheng glanced at the charm before looking back at the dark-faced Feng Jin. She swept her gaze over the crowd gathered around the old mansion.

‘What’ll happen to Feng Jin if he can’t beat that lot without my help? I gotta stand up for my man! Forget it…I’ll just look ugly for a bit.’

Shi Sheng gave the charm back to Feng Jin. “Kiss me and I’ll let you stick it on.”

“If you’re not coming with me then go home.” ‘Still daring to discuss conditions with me!’

“Then I guess I’ll just go over like this. You can’t stop me anyway.” Shi Sheng shook her head in a rather triumphant manner. ‘I like it when you can’t stand me, but have to play along!’

Feng Jin resisted the urge to slap her. ‘She wants to follow me, yet makes me kiss her… As if I amthe one begging her to go over!’

He snapped his head around to glare at An Su and Xiao Bai. “What’re you looking at? Turn around!”

An Su jumped at the sudden shout , and she hurriedly turned away. ‘Isn’t it just a kiss? What’s there to be embarrassed about?’

Feng Jin then turned to glare at Xiao Bai. The latter felt a cold chill and hurriedly spun around as well.

Only then did Feng Jin lower his head. His Adam’s apple bobbed slightly as he spoke, “Just one.”

“En.” Shi Sheng lifted her face and closed her eyes. “Come on.”

Feng Jin pursed his lips and he slowly lowered his head to press his lips against hers.

The feeling wasn’t the same as the last time she’d kissed him. It felt like a tingly currentof electricity surging through his veins.
