Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Murong Bai's eyes widened in disbelief. To verify whether it was true or not, he walked to the door, opened it, and went out again.

When he returned home, he was happy and opened the door with a smile, only to see Qiao Chu sitting on the sofa.

She asked, "You're back?"

"Yes, I'm back. I'm telling you, I didn't get hurt or anything happened to me today." Murong Bai excitedly shared with her, his eyes full of joy.

Qiao Chu simply nodded: "Yes, it's fine!"

Seeing her so calm, Murong Bai realized what was going on: "Did you already know? That's why you didn't come grocery shopping with me today?"

"I don't know!" Qiao Chu shook her head, denying it.

Murong Bai was a little skeptical: "Really?"

"Yeah, I was sleepy this morning and wanted to sleep a little longer."

Murong Bai was skeptical, but felt it was related to her. However, since she wouldn't admit it, he could only keep it to himself.

Thinking about it, he went off to get busy in a cheerful mood. Qiao Chu breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him go into the kitchen.

It's not that she doesn't want to talk about it, but rather that she doesn't know how to say it, because saying it would reveal that she knows too much.

Murong Bai would do a thorough cleaning at home whenever he had nothing to do, because he felt he couldn't be too idle.

To thank Qiao Chu, he specially cooked a different soup for her every day. It didn't matter if she didn't admit it, but he felt that she was the one who made it.

Because no one else cared whether he lived or died, only her, Murong Bai felt his heart beat faster when he thought of Qiao Chu.

"Murong Bai, go buy a bed and turn the study into a bedroom," Qiao Chu said, sitting on the sofa and watching the busy man.

Murong Bai snapped out of his daze and looked at her: "I can sleep on the sofa."

"No, it's inconvenient!" Qiao Chu said directly.

"What's inconvenient about it? I..."

Murong Bai was halfway through his sentence when he met her ambiguous smile. Remembering that he had promised to listen to her, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.

"Okay, I'll move to the study to sleep."

She asked him to buy a bed, which was for his own good. Thinking of this, Murong Bai washed his hands and sat down next to her.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally asked, "Um, why are you so nice to me?"

Qiao Chu glanced at him: "How have I been good to you?"

“From the very beginning, you saved me, then helped me drive away the ghosts that wanted to harm me, and you even accompanied me to buy groceries because you were afraid I would get hurt. That day, you even came to redeem me from a job.” Murong Bai said, counting on his fingers.

Then, he continued, "And the thing about me suddenly not having bad luck, even if you don't admit it, I know it's you. No one else will help me."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Chu remained silent, while Murong Bai looked at her expectantly: "What is the reason?"

Seeing his gaze, Qiao Chu said, "Didn't I already tell you, no one will cook for me when you're injured?"

"That's all? I don't believe it. There are so many people who can cook; you can easily find someone." Murong Bai stared intently at her.

Xiao Qi said, "Host, I don't believe your reasons either. Why do you still refuse to acknowledge this world?"

Qiao Chu thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed and, while Murong Bai was still in a daze, leaned over and kissed him.

By the way, to Xiao Qi: "You old rascal, you've ruined my composure."

After she finished kissing him, she stepped back, but Murong Bai felt like his mind was exploding. He was stunned for a long time before he reached out and touched his own lips.

Realizing what had happened, his face and ears turned red, and he asked, "What... what do you mean by kissing me?"

Qiao Chu curled her lips into a smile: "Didn't you already guess?"

He just asked those questions because he wanted to give himself an answer.

"You like me?" Murong Bai mustered his courage and asked.

Qiao Chu moved closer to him again, and the two looked at each other at close range. Murong Bai was a little nervous, but he still didn't look away.

"Humans and ghosts are different, are you sure you want to be with me?" Qiao Chu asked.

Murong Bai blinked and nodded, saying, "As long as you don't leave me."

His world was enriched with new colors from the moment she entered it; he couldn't accept her leaving.

Qiao Chu reached out a hand, lifted his chin, and slowly moved closer to him.

The soft touch on her lips brought Murong Bai back to his senses. He looked at her for a while before closing his eyes.

Seeing how well-behaved he was, a smile flashed in Qiao Chu's eyes. At first, she took the lead, but gradually Murong Bai began to respond in the same way as her. It turned out that he had just been learning.

Gradually, Qiao Chu was lying on the sofa, being kissed by Murong Bai. Her dress was rolled up to her waist, and Murong Bai was acting entirely on instinct.

Finally, he stopped, his face flushed, and said with an embarrassed look, "I'm going to take a shower."

After saying that, he ran into the bathroom. Qiao Chu glanced at him, sat up, and said with a smile, "He's quite innocent, but he's also quite bold."

"Host, you guys are so fast?" A mosaic suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Qi.

Qiao Chu rolled her eyes: "You're still keeping track of time? Don't you have anything better to do?"

Xiao Qi quickly chuckled awkwardly, "Hehe, well, I haven't been to the neighbor's lately, I'm going now, bye-bye, host."

As she spoke, it ran off. Qiao Chu smiled helplessly, took a shower in her spatial dimension, and went back to her room afterward.

After taking a shower, Murong Bai looked at himself in the mirror, his eyelids even red. He raised his hand to touch his lips and gave a silly smile.

When he finally mustered the courage to open the door and go out, he found that no one was in the living room.

After glancing at Qiao Chu's room, Murong Bai hesitated for a moment before going into the kitchen to get busy. He would call her after he finished cooking.

*

During this time, Qiao Chu and Murong Baitian were inseparable and affectionate.

It did make both of them feel happy, but Qiao Chu always felt a bit stuck in the middle, while Murong Bai always seemed to hit the brakes at the last minute.

If I didn't know he was inexperienced, I would have thought he did it on purpose.

So, when Murong Bai tried to brake again, Qiao Chu grabbed him, slipped into the room, and threw him onto the bed.

"W-what's wrong?" Murong Bai was still a little confused and sat up to ask.

Qiao Chu stepped forward and pushed him down, a smirk playing on her lips. "You can't escape this time."

As soon as she finished speaking, she leaned down and pinned his hands to his sides, then kissed him on the lips. Murong Bai's eyes gradually changed from surprise to a dazed look.

He always felt bad when he stopped at the end, but this time he really couldn't refuse.

……

The next morning, Murong Bai opened his eyes and stared wide-eyed at the hand placed on his body.

Recalling what happened last night, his face began to burn. He gently removed his hands from his body and tried to pick up his clothes from the ground to put them on.

He was pulled back as soon as he moved, and Qiao Chu patted his hand in front of him: "Sleep a little longer!"

Seeing that she was also completely naked under the covers, Murong Bai quickly looked away and said, "I... I'll go buy groceries?"
