  Oh, my god! What did I just say? I should have shut my mouth. What would Chen Shu think after listening to my nonsense?

  Chen Shu’s lips were extremely thin, maybe because he didn’t laugh often, and his face always looked aloof. But upon hearing Ye Sui’s words just now, Chen Shu hooked his lips and smiled a little.

  Even though Ye Sui spoke those embarrassing words, Chen Shu didn’t respond to point her out. It was almost as if it didn’t matter, and he let her act how she wished regardless of the rules.

  Seeing that Chen Shu did not delve into the matter, Ye Sui calmed herself down. Behind them, the ghost was also flustered, and frustratedly yelled out.

  “You are not allowed to speak to him! Don’t think he likes you because he came to pick you up. Don’t flatter yourself.”


  Because of Chen Shu’s yang spirit, the lovestruck ghost dare not get close to him, thus, she could only lean forward in between them and create some distance.

  Ye Sui moved closer to the window, not wanting to be too near to the ghost.

  Fortunately, the idiot ghost thought she couldn’t talk to Ye Sui. After her taunting, she shrank back and sat in the back seat again.

  Afterward, the ghost began to take out the makeup tools she used when alive from her small bag. It seemed that she loved to appear beautiful all the time.

  She picked up her lipstick and started to do her makeup in front of the mirror.

  Despite Ye Sui’s fear, she unexpectedly took a peek in the rearview mirror. She wanted to see this ghost’s appearance with makeup.

  The ghost carefully outlined her lip line bit by bit and was just about to finish it. All of a sudden, the car made a sharp turn.

  Her lipstick immediately slipped, and a long red line was drawn onto her face.

  The gorgeous ghost seemed to be dumbstruck. She carefully checked her reflection in the mirror and wiped her face with a cotton pad while giving herself psychological hints.

  “Not angry, not angry; the driver is my future husband.”


  When Ye Sui heard this sentence, she felt inexplicably upset. Chen Shu was her husband, not others.

  Ye Sui curled her lips while being in a bad mood. Looking at the lovestruck fool ghost, she had fixed her lipstick mishap and was now drawing her eyeliner.

  When the eyeliner was about to be completed, the car came to a sudden stop.

  “Oh, my eyes! I am still beautiful and need to endure.” The eyeliner pen poked the eyes of the ghost. The eyeliner was also unsuccessful.

  Ye Sui, who was initially in a lousy mood, cheered up in an instant. She watched the drifting scenery from the window, raised her lips, and looked gratified.

  If it weren’t for Ye Sui knowing that Chen Shu couldn’t see these ghosts, she would have thought that he was deliberately doing this. Who allowed the ghost to lay a false claim on her husband just now?

  After a series of twists and turns on the road, Ye Sui finally arrived home. The ghost did not seem to keep up with them, or perhaps she dared not.

  Ye Sui was relieved, together with Chen Shu entered the elevator. The elevator went up one floor after another, but just a few floors away, the elevator shook a few times and then stopped.

  The elevator door slowly opened, and when Ye Sui pressed the elevator’s button again, all the keys failed. She insisted on it over and over again. Ye Sui took the elevator home because she knew that the elevator would not break down for no reason. She was a hundred percent sure that the trouble was caused by the ghost now.

  “Let’s take the stairs.” Chen Shu only speculated that there was something wrong with the elevator. He called Ye Sui, who was near the edge of collapse.

  Ye Sui could only follow Chen Shu with resignation and went to the stairs. She followed closely, fearing that Chen Shu would walk faster, and she would not be able to keep pace with him.

  Stairs in horror movies were not so simple. Generally, when the leading actors walked up the stairs, there would be a power cut off.

  Next second, Ye Sui’s conjecture was proved to be true.

  “Bang!”


  The lights in the stairwell went out, starting from the bottom floor and going up step by step up. At last, the whole staircase was plunged into darkness.

  Ye Sui and Chen Shu stopped at the same time and stood in front of the last step. Ye Sui was frightened, so she took out her mobile phone, ready to turn on the flashlight.

  According to the movies, the moment she turned on the flashlight, there must be a white female ghost with black hair that covered her face, lying on top of the stairs.

  Ye Sui’s hand was trembling as the glow of the flashlight became unsteady, illuminating a white-clad female ghost at the top of the stairs.

  Ye Sui was so frightened that she grabbed Chen Shu’s arm. Instead of looking at him, she stared at the dumbstruck fool ghost who was ready to frighten them.

  The dumbstruck fool ghost and Ye Sui looked at each other. Perhaps she had stared at her for too long when she was in the car, the ghost discovered that Ye Sui could see her, so she was waiting here to frighten Ye Sui.

  Immediately after, the ghost was ready to take the first step. Ye Sui quickly tightened her gripped at Chen Shu’s sleeves, but her hands lost their strength and could not catch his hand.

  Ye Sui said in a trembling voice, her words almost indiscernible, “Hu-husband.” Ye Sui didn’t want to, but she accidentally spoke the words of the oath of command.

  To be continue……
