"Ayan, come and lie down inside and try it."

Lin Chaoyan really didn't want to disappoint him, but how could she let go if she didn't want to disappoint him?

"Oh…"

She obediently lay down inside her own corpse.

Ying Zheng watched as the soul and body merged completely, and just as he was about to rejoice, the next second, Lin Chaoyan was ejected from her body. She flew out and rolled several times on the ground.

"Ouch...it hurts!! Do ghosts feel pain? How come they're different from the ghosts in TV dramas? The difference between how they are as ghosts and how I am as a ghost is too big..." Lin Chaoyan didn't expect that being a human was so stifling, and being a ghost wasn't much better either.

"Ayan, are you hurt?" After missing his target again, Ying Zheng felt so helpless that he almost collapsed.

"There's no going back! Ah Zheng~ There's really no going back! Just let go! It's not so bad to die. Maybe in my next life I won't have to live in such fear and trepidation." She vowed never to buy lottery tickets again in her next life.

"No! Ah Yan, there must be some problems we don't know. When Qiu Shenji comes, isn't he a Taoist priest? He will definitely know the reason. So, Ah Yan, please be good and don't run around, okay?" Ah Yan, I only ask for this life, not the next, I only ask to be with you forever.

At this moment, Ying Zheng suddenly remembered the person in his dream and quickly got up to go back to sleep. However, he was really worried that Lin Chaoyan, as a spirit, would wander off.

"Let's go! Ah Yan, let's go to sleep."

Lin Chaoyan had no idea what he was thinking. "I can't leave this body, I can't run away. Besides, that bed is too cramped for two people, where am I supposed to lie?" Sigh...

"Then you have to be good, Ayan! I'll come out and tell you when I find the answer." After saying that, Ying Zheng reached out and patted Lin Chaoyan's head from a distance.

Inside the room, Ying Zheng, holding her hand, drifted off to sleep, while Lin Chaoyan, in her spirit form, sat on the windowsill humming a little tune. The atmosphere at the post station was oppressive; Meng Tian was frantic because he hadn't caught the assassin.

The main force also revealed a corner of the carriage.

"Oh dear! Riding in the carriage all day is exhausting!" Qiu Shenji jumped off the carriage and stretched his limbs as he walked.

The moment he looked up, he saw Lin Chaoyan sitting on the windowsill. "Hey? Sis! What are you doing sitting on the windowsill so late at night?"

Everyone looked at him, then glanced at him again. Those who knew the truth felt a chill run down their spines, while those who didn't thought he was seeing things.

Lin Chaoyan quietly waved in Qiu Shenji's direction without saying a word.

Qiu Shenji happily waved his hand, "It's so late, hurry up and go inside!"

Everyone was quite frightened by him. "Young Master Qiu! There's no Miss Lin there!" Please don't scare us!

"What do you mean, 'no'? She's sitting right there! Look for yourself! She even waved and said hello to me!" Seriously?! Do you all have night blindness? Qiu Shenji looked at Lin Chaoyan, completely convinced of what he was seeing.

"You say you saw her, but none of us can see her. Tell me what she looks like now." Most of those present were members of the Meng family army, and Meng Tian couldn't let talk of ghosts and gods disturb the morale of his troops.

"Are you kidding me, bro? What I saw was definitely not a ghost!" "The same hairpin as always, and a light blue dress. But she was wearing pink when we parted at noon. Looks like she changed into new clothes." My sister looks good in everything.

Upon hearing this, Meng Tian looked at the empty windowsill. He had prepared the change of clothes, but this man hadn't seen them before. Could it be... Miss Lin? Are you reluctant to part with her?

"What's wrong?" He looked at the crowd as they all moved away from him, some of them staring at him with fear in their eyes. Qiu Shenji scratched his head, his face full of confusion.

He wanted to say something more, but then he saw Lin Chaoyan make a shushing gesture.

"Haha!! Just kidding! No, I was just trying to keep everyone awake." What new magic has my little sister learned?

Qiu Shenji's simple-mindedness made Lin Chaoyan shake her head and sigh, unable to help but worry about his future. "This guy is really something, he might scare people to death!"

"So the night can be this long?" She sat by the window all night.

Meanwhile, Qiu Shenji was dragged out of bed by Meng Tian early in the morning and made to wait at Ying Zheng's door.

"Brother, is there something wrong?" They came but weren't allowed in, and they weren't allowed to leave either. Qiu Shenji was incredibly annoyed by this damned feudal hierarchy.

"Just wait as I told you to." Meng Tian looked down on him terribly.

Inside, Ying Zheng had already woken up, and seemed to be looking forward to something as he reached out and gently lifted Lin Chaoyan's collar.

Seeing that the wound inside hadn't changed much, only disappointment filled his eyes. Seeing that no one was around, he suddenly became anxious, got out of bed, and found her sitting on the windowsill, lost in thought.

"Ayan, come inside quickly." It's only March, yet it's so cold outside!

"Oh! Okay..." Lin Chaoyan tried to be obedient to avoid his nagging.

Lin Chaoyan came downstairs and looked at Ying Zheng, whose face was exhausted, and felt very sorry for him. He was stubborn and wouldn't listen to reason, so all she could do was sigh helplessly.

"Ah Zheng, don't look at me or talk to me in the future, or people will think you've gone crazy."

“I understand! As long as Ayan suffers…” Ying Zheng agreed softly.

His Ayan is just too kind; even at a time like this, she's still thinking of others.

After composing himself, Ying Zheng called out to the person outside the door.

"Someone come..."

With a creak, the door was pushed open, and the palace maids who were serving her to wash and dress walked in one after another.

Is Lin Chaoyan really worried that Ying Zheng can live a life without being an emperor? That would be like falling from the sky to the ground.

"Serve the meal..."

Ying Zheng ate a little with difficulty, but it tasted bland. His gaze unconsciously drifted to Lin Chaoyan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed examining his body.

"Withdraw! Let Qiu Shenji come to see me..." He had obtained some answers, learning that Lin Chaoyan's calamity was not this time. Therefore, her life would not end, otherwise that person would not exist.

Upon hearing that it was finally his turn, Qiu Shenji, who was outside, didn't need to be summoned and immediately darted into the house.

"What do you want from me?" Looking at Lin Chaoyan on the bed, he immediately asked in a low voice.

"My little sister is still asleep. Should we stop talking here and go somewhere else?" She's sleeping so soundly. Is my little sister such a good sleeper?

"Meng Tian, ​​convey my order that no one is to approach this room, and that nothing about Ayan be revealed."

His voice was stern and cold, and his imposing presence made Qiu Shenji feel uneasy, so she quietly moved towards the window. Ying Zheng could not allow any gossip to prevent her from becoming his wife.

"promise…"

"Little sister? You?" Qiu Shenji looked at the person next to him and then at the person lying on the bed, repeatedly expressing his surprise and speechless.

"You, you, you, what happened to you? How could your soul leave your body? No? You were fine when you left." Now that he's in another world, he'll treat Lin Chaoyan like his own sister. She and Han Dong are his family, his source of strength and belief.

"Old Qiu? I'm sorry! I'm dead. Take good care of yourself from now on. I don't know if I'll have a chance to say goodbye to the others. I'll have to trouble you with the ten-year promise..." That big boy who always cries is probably hiding away and crying again. Lin Chaoyan is most worried about Han Dong.

"No, wait a minute." Qiu Shenji turned to look at Ying Zheng, his eyes now devoid of any fear.

"What's wrong with you? Why did my sister become like this after going out with you? If you can't protect her, why do you keep pestering her? She's fine where she is, why do you have to disturb her?" After all these years of peace and tranquility, Qiu Shenji couldn't believe that what he saw last night was really his sister's soul.

Meng Tian immediately drew his sword and held it to Qiu Shenji's neck, shouting loudly.

"You are presumptuous!"

"Outrageous? My sister is in this state, so what if I'm outrageous? Do you think I'm afraid of you mere mortals? I'll be outrageous today!" Qiu Shenji directly cleaved Meng Tian's sword in two with a hand-crafted lightning strike. A whip cracked out in a flash.

Meng Tian was greatly shocked and immediately realized that as Lin Chaoyan's brother, he was naturally no ordinary person. Thinking of his benefactor, he chose to keep quiet and listen.

"Old Qiu! It's none of their business! They can't stop the people who can kill me. They're just ordinary people, don't hurt innocent people..." Seeing Qiu Shenji so angry for her sake, Lin Chaoyan was moved and quickly stopped him from making a mistake.

Ying Zheng was stung by the words of ordinary people, by common folk, and he hated his own powerlessness. "I have wronged Ayan, for not being able to protect her. But what is wrong with wanting to be with her forever? Does my inability today mean I will be unable to protect her in the future?"

"The most important thing now is to find a way to save her. Ayan can't go back into her body. As long as you can save Ayan, I will give you anything you want." Ying Zheng could only place his hopes on Qiu Shenji at this time.

Qiu Shenji hurriedly took a purse off his neck and carefully pulled out a box from it.
