Chapter 246 : Petty Ghosts are Hard to Deal With 28 (2/2)

Shi Sheng, “…”

‘That was Ning Ying, not me!!! If I didn’t come over, doesn’t that mean he would have taken responsibility for Ning Ying?’

This thought caused her to feel rather unhappy. She glared at Feng Jin before floating out of the room.

Feng Jin, who had been completely confused by her sudden change of attitude, “…”

‘What did I do now?’

Shi Sheng ignored him for several days. Even An Su could feel something was off with the mood at home whenever she returned from school.

Er, An Su’s position was that of a… free housekeeper?

“Mr Feng…” An Su carefully walked over to Feng Jin. “What’s up with Ghost-jiejie?”

‘Her expression was really scary just now…’

Feng Jin felt like a cat had been clawing at his heart from Shi Sheng’s silent treatment. An Su’s question finally gave him the push he needed to get up and stride over to Shi Sheng’s room.

An Su looked at the ceiling innocently.

In the room, Shi Sheng was sitting cross-legged on the bed and was watching a certain type of film on her tablet that would typically cause one to blush. Well, not her though—she appeared rather disdainful in fact.

When Feng Jin opened the door, he was greeted by those strange noises. He hurriedly entered and shut the door.

Shi Sheng lifted her head to look at him. Feng Jin stood there with his back against the door. For a time, it felt a bit awkward, as the strange noises continued being emitted from the tablet.

After quite a while, Feng Jin went forward to close the webpage on the tablet with a dark face.

‘Just how does she find these websites…’

Feng Jin tossed the tablet to the side, and from there he suddenly didn’t know what he was supposed to do. He squatted down and lifted his head slightly to look up at Shi Sheng. “I…”

Shi Sheng propped up her chin. “What’s with you?”

Feng Jin took a deep breath, and continued, “I-I’ll take responsibility.”

“Humans and ghosts can’t be together.” Shi Sheng jumped off the bed and tilted her head to the side as she looked down at him. “Didn’t you say that?”

‘This fellow said it so righteously back then too!’

Feng Jin, “…”

“I can help you return to life.” Feng jin grasped Shi Sheng’s hands and earnestly looked at her.

‘Return to life? I wasn’t serious back then! I can’t return to life; I need to reincarnate!’

“I can’t.”

Feng Jin’s grip on Shi Sheng tightened. “Why? If you come back to life… you can be with me.”

Shi Sheng narcissistically rubbed her face. “Because then I can maintain my beautiful looks.”

Feng Jin, “…” ‘She’s not wrong… no way to refute that…’

“Do you like the former Ning Ying, or the current me?” Shi Sheng asked with no warning.

“The current you,” Feng Jin replied without any hesitation whatsoever. Although the old Ning Ying was very obedient and clever, he hadn’t liked her at all. The only reason he brought her with him was because he had seen her body, and he felt he had to take responsibility for that accident by keeping her.

Feng Jin wasn’t stupid enough to try the tactic of saying he liked her regardless of whether it was the former her or current her—because he only liked the current her.

He probably liked… her unreasonableness?

Shi Sheng suddenly closed the distance between them and pressed him against the bed, looking down on him from above. As her exquisite features were reflected in Feng Jin’s eyes, he could feel his heartbeat speeding up as nervousness rose within him.

An ambiguous atmosphere settled in the room and Feng Jin could almost feel the temperature rising.

Shi Sheng slowly drew closer to him before suddenly saying, “Can I not fuck you if I don’t return to life?”

Feng Jin, “…” ‘Is it really okay to be that explicit?!’
