The room suddenly darkened. Chen Shu went back to sit beside Ye Sui’s bed, staring at her closed eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

  After sleeping for about an hour or two, Ye Sui woke up. Her eyelashes trembling, she opened her eyes and gently glanced at Chen Shu, who was seemingly looking elsewhere. After a while, Chen Shu’s gaze again moved to her as four eyes locked onto each other.

  Ye Sui no longer felt discomfort. She quietly lay in bed, obviously much better. Seeing her like this, Chen Shu breathed a sigh of relief. “Feeling alright?”


  Ye Sui nodded. “A little thirsty.”


  Chen Shu quickly stood up, took a cup of warm water, and came over, frowning. The cup was in Chen Shu’s hand as he held it to Ye Sui’s mouth, his slender fingers gliding along the edges. Ye Sui was holding Chen Shu’s hand as she took a mouthful.

  After drinking a glass of water, Ye Sui looked up and saw Chen Shu’s constant frown. “Chen Shu.”


  Chen Shu asked with great concern, “Are you uncomfortable somewhere else?”


  Ye Sui shook her head. “I am much better now. Anyway, why are you frowning?”


  Chen Shu raised his hand and touched his forehead. Even he did not know that he was unconsciously frowning. Ye Sui’s every move always affected his mood.

  Chen Shu said nothing, looked at the empty cup and stood up again to pour water for her.

  Ye Sui looked at Chen Shu trotting out of the room, but the very next second, when she sobered up, she noticed something amiss.

  When she was home, with Chen Shu by her side, the ghosts did not dare to come close. Hence, the house was clean, and there was nothing to be afraid of.

  Now that they had changed places, that is to say, a new batch of ghosts would have appeared before Ye Sui could adapt to them. She slowly pulled up her quilt and covered half of her face.

  When Chen Shu was still there just now, those ghosts would not be presumptuous. They were scared to hide in the corner of the room and did not dare approach.

  One was hiding at the edge of the curtain, one was hiding behind the TV, and another was hiding in the innermost corner of the room.

  “The man finally left, which terrified my little heart nonstop.” The ghost on the curtain came out from the side and palpably patted his chest, as if his heart was still beating faster.

  The TV ghost also emerged from behind the TV. She stretched out her leg and said, “My legs are numb.”


  “Warning, warning, the man is back. Hide.” Soon after the TV ghost appeared, Chen Shu’s footsteps were heard. As soon as this was said, the ghosts went to their own hiding places and quickly returned to their original positions.

  Ye Sui’s eyes dared not glance at random, just listening to Chen Shu’s reassuring footsteps. If she confessed to Chen Shu that she could see ghosts now, would he accept it?

  When Chen Shu came in, he saw Ye Sui shivering in the quilt. He immediately thought of his own conjecture that she might truly see ghosts. His face sank; she was still so uncomfortable. Were those ghosts so blind?

  Those ghosts did not know that they had already offended Chen Shu, and it was imprinted in his mind.

  While drinking the water that Chen Shu brought to her, Ye Sui was thinking about how to find words to tell him about the ghosts.

  “Chen Shu.” Ye Sui paused for a few seconds. “Do you really think there are no ghosts in this world? “


  Chen Shu did not answer immediately, unlike the previous times where he would instantly give a negative answer to Ye Sui. He did not give a reply but asked a question instead.

  “Now, is there a ghost in this room we’re in?”


  Ye Sui hesitated for a moment and decided to tell Chen Shu the fact that she could see ghosts. She held out her trembling finger and pointed to the ghost beside the curtain.

  When the curtain ghost saw Ye Sui’s finger pointing at him, he was ready to frighten her. After all, there were still a few people who could see ghosts.

  “Is that so?” The said ghost poked out from behind the curtain and made a strange and horrible gesture, slowly coming towards Ye Sui’s side.

  “Then I’ll let you see the real appearance of ghosts, hehehe.”
