"What, what exception?"

"I can help your androgynous friend release the ghost he's controlling."

Before Ling Yue could even feel grateful and excited, Chu Ping stopped her.

"Who are you calling neither male nor female, you old codger?"

As Chu Ping spoke, he was about to rush forward and grab his collar again.

Seeing this, Ling Yue quickly hugged Chu Ping's waist and desperately held her back, saying, "Master Chu, Master Chu, let's talk this out, let's talk this out."

At this moment, Ling Yue was really putting in all her strength!

All of his weight was on her body. Only when she stopped moving did she realize that something was wrong. Why did it feel so soft?

Only by carefully feeling around can you realize where you've touched something, so let go immediately!

The old man didn't react much. Instead, he calmly tossed out the doll-sized alchemy furnace, made hand seals, and then the furnace began to expand again.

This time, there was no blinding light, nor any lightning or thunder, but one could see a group of ghosts falling out of the alchemy furnace one by one, like dumplings!

Chu Ping reacted quickly, casting a spell to catch the ghosts he was controlling.

After putting it away, I awkwardly thanked the old man.

Seeing her awkward expression, Ling Yue couldn't help but laugh out loud, but she managed to suppress it again after receiving a sharp look from her.

Meanwhile, on the other side, on the rooftop of a 50-story office building in a spacious area.

A man dressed in a dark suit and black shirt coughed up a mouthful of blood!

A person nearby asked worriedly, "Master! How are you? Should we call a doctor?"

The man waved his hand, then took out a pure white handkerchief from his suit's inner pocket, wiped his lips, and instantly the white handkerchief was stained blood red...

The man covered his mouth with a handkerchief and laughed silently, a laugh that sent chills down the spines of those around him.

"Well done..."

"Is it really still not working?"

"Jing Yucheng, I'd like to see how long you can hold out!"

After muttering to himself, the man turned and walked out of the rooftop.

*

After the matter was resolved, Ling Yue shamelessly stayed at the villa, since Jing Yucheng would wake up in less than two hours anyway!

Chu Ping was about to suggest staying with Ling Yue to get to know Jing Yucheng when the old man refused him before he could even speak.

Chu Ping: ...

Who cares!

Anyway, he's Ling Yue's husband, so they can't possibly not go on dates, right?

He left in a huff.

In the time leading up to Jing Yucheng's awakening, Ling Yue planned to take a good look at the layout and construction of the villa.

But wherever she went, a person named "Xiao Jiu" would follow her.

She seems quite innocent, but why does she appear so worried when she's with me? Especially when Ling Yue sees any novel ornaments or landscapes, she always wants to touch them and feel them.

Xiao Jiu looked like she was about to cry...

This made Ling Yue afraid to make any rash moves, it was so boring!

Ling Yue simply ran to Jing Yucheng's room, moved a rocking chair-style sofa, sat down next to him, and stared intently into his eyes.

Jing Yucheng's eyelashes are so long!

How come Jing Yucheng's face is so handsome?

Was he really not breathing? Thinking this, I quickly put my index finger under his nose, and there it was!

Instinctively, he quickly withdrew his hand. When he looked up, he saw Xiao Jiu looking at him anxiously, her eyes filled with resentment...

Jing Yucheng's lips were a dark red, which, perhaps because of his fair skin, made him look like he had applied lipstick, making you want to kiss him...

As if Xiao Jiu could read her mind, she kept shaking her head at her, indicating that she should not meddle with this immortal.

Ling Yue was already immune to it and didn't care at all.

Following the gaze, I looked down at the Adam's apple, and then...

It's a pity it was covered by the blanket!

Suddenly I really want to hear his heartbeat.

Ling Yue is the kind of person who does what she thinks of. Without any hesitation, she directly ripped off the black blanket!

When Ling Yue saw the scene before her, she was immediately dumbfounded!

When did they take his clothes off?

Who did it?

Ling Yue looked up at Xiao Jiu, her eyes full of questions, "Why did you have to take his clothes off?"

Xiao Jiu was speechless when asked, and could only say that he didn't take his clothes off...

But then I remembered the old man's advice, "Don't answer Miss Ling's questions directly."

"The less she knows about the saint, the better."

So, Xiao Jiu held back again.

At first, Ling Yue closed her eyes, maintaining the traditional virtue of not looking at what is improper. Then she mentally prepared herself, thinking, "He's my husband anyway, and it's not like I haven't seen him before..."

What's there to be ashamed of?

Ling Yue followed her heart and slowly opened her eyes.

Staring at his pectoral muscles, it's really strange. This guy has been lying here for forty-nine days, and his muscles haven't become loose at all.

This is incredible!

I couldn't resist raising my hand to test it out, and my finger almost poked Jing Yucheng's chest muscle.

Xiao Jiu coughed loudly and couldn't help but remind her, "Miss Ling, please, please have some self-respect!"

Ling Yue: ……

It's just a tap, why be so cautious?

It makes her seem like an old rogue!

On second thought, isn't this her husband?

It's been so long since we last saw each other, what's wrong with touching him?

Ling Yue suddenly felt rebellious and couldn't help but touch his chest muscles. When she touched the area around his heart, she found that he had no heartbeat!

Ling Yue immediately withdrew her claws!

Somewhat reluctantly, I placed my ear directly over his heart, wanting to listen carefully to see if he had a heartbeat.

No, it's really not true...

The skin on the body was not warm at all, but it was very shiny.

"Miss Ling, you can't do this!"

Xiao Jiu was so anxious that she wanted to step forward and pull Ling Yue away.

Ling Yue seemed to understand why they wouldn't let her see Jing Yucheng; there were too many things about him that normal people couldn't understand!

Before Xiao Jiu could pull her up, Ling Yue had already plopped down on the rocking chair...

Countless guesses flashed through my mind.

Is Jing Yucheng not human?

What could he be?

Is it a ghost?

Or is it one of those vampires shown on TV?

I actually fell asleep while thinking about it. Maybe I've been too tired lately?

Or perhaps it's just too late...

It felt like a beautiful dream. She finally got to eat her favorite pig's trotters—the kind that melts in your mouth, rich but not greasy, leaving a lingering fragrance…

It made you want to take a sip of water, and then take a bite.

Ling Yue only slowly woke up when she heard a muffled groan in her ear.

Upon seeing the magnified face before me, I recognized Jing Yucheng!

Ling Yue excitedly tried to push him away and take a closer look at him, but he held her tightly and she couldn't move.

"Be good, close your eyes."

As if under a spell, Ling Yue obediently closed her eyes.

"Open your mouth."

Do as instructed.

"So good!"

As if it were some kind of reward, Jing Yucheng quickly conquered new territories and became exceptionally ruthless.

Only when he realized that Ling Yue was starting to experience oxygen deprivation did he hurriedly release her.

Jing Yucheng touched his reddened lips with his thumb, finally realizing that what had just happened was real, and not a dream...

Ling Yue regained her senses and raised her hand to slap his arm.

"You are crazy!"

"You, you, you just woke up, how could you..."

Using so much force!

Before Ling Yue could finish her sentence, Jing Yucheng began apologizing…

"I'm sorry, did I hurt you?"

"I couldn't resist, I'll definitely be more careful next time."

Next time?

Ling Yue blushed. "Next time?"

Suddenly realizing something, Ling Yue quickly put her ear to his heart.

Thump thump thump, my heart is beating very fast!

Did Jing Yucheng really come back to life?

She had so many questions she wanted to ask him, but that wasn't the most important thing right now.

Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?

"Are you thirsty? Would you like some water?"

As Ling Yue spoke, she wanted to go downstairs to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat or drink for him to bring up.

As soon as she turned around, Jing Yucheng hugged her from behind.

Ling Yue stood frozen in place, then heard Jing Yucheng's voice coming from above.

I want to hug you right now.

Ling Yue's heart melted upon hearing this.

To think that they hadn't seen each other for forty-nine days...

Ling Yue turned around and hugged Jing Yucheng tightly, only then feeling each other's real presence...
