Fang Geyuâs smile gradually faded as she realized that even at such a critical moment, Baili An was still staring at another ghost girl.
She snorted coldly, and with both hands, she forcefully turned his face back to hers, her black eyes glaring into his with a hint of threat, âAnswer my question.â
Baili An was so overwhelmed by her aura that he could hardly divert his attention to control the blood power buried within the corpseâs body.
Without the torment of pain, the corpseâs vigor surged instantly.
Drum sound intensified, urging souls to be reaped!
Baili Anâs knuckles turned white as he clutched the sheet, and his already sensitive senses to human scent were infinitely amplified.
He could even clearly smell the faint fragrance of the young girl emanating from Fang Geyu.
In front of him were her watery apricot eyes, her delicately petal-like lips touched with bright rouge, the warm breath making them enticingly moist.
It felt soft on your body, yet it gave the fierce illusion that she might bite you at any moment.
The girlâs breath warmed his cheeks, quickly turning his skin there to a flushed red; Baili Anâs chest heaved, and his eyes reddened.
Every inch of his skin was stirring with absurd impulses, and if he snapped the cord in his heart and followed the drum sound now, he would regain his strength in an instant and fiercely flip over this disobedient girl.
But if he did, he didnât know what terrible things he might do to Fang Geyu.
His Adamâs apple moved as he clenched his teeth and struggled, âYou!
Are you done?!â
Fang Geyu narrowed her eyes, a slight smile playing at her lips, âMe?
Who am I?â
âBaili An!
You are Fang Geyu!
The young miss Fang Geyu of Shifang City raising a corpse demon, right?
Move away!â
Fang Geyu pushed further, âThen, this corpse demon Iâm raising, what is it to me, hmm?â
That âhmm?â stretched long and soft.
Baili An was almost driven mad by the girlâs gaze, his chaotic heart having no answer at all.
Yet, he instinctively continued, âSi Chen is Fang Geyuâs favorite male attendant.â
The intense desire to survive made him blurt out both names, forgetting that revealing their true identities to the corpse He Sha might expose them.
The words slipped out before he realized what he had said.
But seeing Fang Geyuâs reaction, it seemed she was quite satisfied.
Her look was like a wild little creature, long cared for but never fully tamed, finally recognizing its master.
No longer wandering outside, messing around with other girls, she knew to come back and meekly rub against her ankles, becoming docile.
Fortunately, the corpse He Sha, being a Fierce Ghostâs spirit, had a mind clear one moment and chaotic the next.
She identified the man and woman on the bed as Yun Shulang and Tao Ziyang and didnât dwell too much on the names Si Chen and Fang Geyu.
Just when Baili An thought everything was finally about to end, the young lady unpredictably asked another baffling question, âWhat about the sugar those women gave you?â
Thinking the young lady was hungry, Baili An hurriedly said, âItâs in my embrace, my hands canât move, you take it yourself.â
Miss Fang gave a cool smile, her two little eyebrows raised, her eyes full of displeasure.
Not knowing which remark had upset her, Miss Fang didnât unravel his robes to take the candy, but instead cuddled against him again with a whining tone.
Her eyes reddened, her small face blushed, and her eyes misted over, her cute appearance suggesting she was about to start mischief.
âNot againâŚâ were the same words uttered during the night the Emperorâs secret treasure was stolen in the jade carriage.
But back then, Baili An was just playing his part, without even a hint of feigned emotion.
Now, this ânot againâ truly hit the right note.
Unable to face it any longer, he covered his cheeks with his hands, thinking to himself that after Fang Geyu sobered up, she would probably be too embarrassed to face anyone again.
âItâs not sugarâŚâ His voice was weak.
The mist in Fang Geyuâs eyes thickened as she stubbornly and unreasonably said, âWho wants the sugar given by other women to you!â
Baili An couldnât help but feel a real annoyance flare up, âWhen will you change this domineering nature of yours, Iâm not giving it!â
Really!
What had he even come here for today!
Being refused, Fang Geyuâs temper flared up instantly, revealing her true form like a little fierce animal guarding its food, âYouâre really stingy!â
âIs this really a matter of being stingy?â Baili Anâs eyes almost shot out flames.
Fang Geyu stared at him, puffing up her cheeks, âYou really wonât give?â
âNo!â
âI want it anyway, what Fang Geyu desires is mine!â
âUhâŚâ Baili An nearly trembled in fear, his chest heaving dramatically!
Baili An bit his tongue hard, the pressure deep enough to draw blood.
He felt a disgusted contempt for himself and an overwhelming sense of powerlessness.
When had he ever harbored such base, filthy thoughts about Fang Geyu in his heart?
She was currently in trouble, unable to control herself, and all her actions and words were involuntary.
She was in trouble, and as a fellow mountain dweller, although he was powerless to assist, how could he shamelessly exploit the situation!
What was he messing up!
You are a corpse demon, and she is an Immortalâs miss.
Is that a reason to take advantage and bully her at will?
Baili Anâs handsome face flushed, reluctant to see even the last bit of his restraint shattered completely.
He furrowed his eyebrows and reached out with difficulty to pinch Fang Geyuâs fair chin.
But the more he resisted the drum sound, the weaker his body became.
Just holding up her chin already took all his strength.
Miss Fang cooperated, naughtily lifting her head to look at him.
Her small face the size of a palm, her cherry-like beautiful lips.
This scene was very striking, and Baili Anâs fingers involuntarily trembled.
He gritted his teeth and couldnât help but cover Fang Geyuâs eyes.
This time, he had truly taken a big fall.
Baili Anâs gaze became vacant.
Suddenly, a cold little hand covered the back of his hand, a stark contrast to her previously warm body temperature.
Now, Fang Geyuâs palm felt extremely cold, as if shocked by a severe blow, stunned beyond belief!
She slowly pulled away the hand covering her eyes.
Underneath his palm were her distinct black and white eyes, proud facial features, and vibrant colors, no longer muddled and chaotic.
That familiar gazeâŚ
It was like the look she gave while dissecting fish innards.
The girlâs face rapidly turned red.
It was unclear whether it was due to irrepressible anger or the shame she couldnât hide.
Her body twitched slightly, her eyes wide like an angry ghost, tearful, flushed, with a touch of bewildered confusion.
Anyone who just regained clarity only to experience such absurdity would remember it for a lifetime.
A buzzing sounded in her head, and it felt as if all her blood had rushed to the top of her head.
Even though the memories of just moments ago surged wildly.
Calm down!
Calm down!
Though reason told her this situation was absurd, it wasnât his fault.
