"Why should I compare myself to her? Am I not cuter?" Ye Ying didn’t care at all, "She looks like a man, what’s so good about that?" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs Nove1Fire.net
Father Ye didn’t agree with that, "I’ve met Long Fengxi, she’s pretty, how could she look like a man?"
"Dad, don’t you find it jarring when you look at her face? She looks so much like her brother."
"They are twins, it’s normal for them to resemble each other," Father Ye instructed, "Focus on your studies, don’t let your mind wander."
Father Ye stood up and left, "I’m going to the company."
Ye Ying got up with her cake in hand, "I’m going to sleep."
"Eating just cake won’t be enough, have a meal before you sleep."
"No need." She returned to her room, finished the cake, then took out half a Liang watermelon from the fridge, sprinkled it with sugar, and began eating it with a spoon.
Sated and hydrated, having stayed up until three in the morning the night before playing games, and having woken up so early this morning, Ye Ying simply went to sleep.
She slept the whole afternoon away.
Upon waking, Ye Ying found herself unable to move or speak.
This feeling of being restrained filled her with immense panic.
Lifting her eyes, she suddenly saw a figure standing by the bed. The figure was facing away from her, but its face was turned towards her, with long hair covering the whole face.
The figure seemed coated in a layer of ghastly white glow, extremely terrifying.
Ye Ying’s heart contracted violently, her pupils dilated, too frightened to even cry. This was the first time in her life she had seen such an unclean thing.
"Little brat." The woman’s threatening voice had a sinister tone, "If you keep pestering Shen Congmo, I will take your soul away. If you don’t believe me, continue seeking him out tomorrow, and I’ll be watching you."
Ye Ying clenched her eyes shut, and when she felt she could move again, she hastily pressed the light switch, but there was nothing beside the bed.
She rushed out of her room in haste, sweating profusely and grabbed hold of Mother Ye, "Mom... a ghost... there’s a ghost..."
"Just now, a female ghost prevented me from moving and speaking, she said if I continue to bother Shen Congmo, she will take my soul away..."
Mother Ye saw how scared she was and it didn’t seem like she was lying.
"What?!" Mother Ye thought to herself, "This must be the work of Long Yubei’s wife. I heard she can communicate with ghosts. Don’t pester Shen Congmo anymore."
"Gu Lili!" Ye Ying clenched her teeth in anger, "She has to meddle in everything, what’s it to her?!"
"Gu Lili is Long Yubei’s wife, and Long Yubei is friends with Shen Congmo. Isn’t it normal for her to intervene? It’s you..." Mother Ye did not want her to dwell on this matter anymore, "Just give up on that idea. Those things with heavy Yin energy, we can’t afford to provoke."
"Mom, find me a master for protection, if I have a master by my side, let’s see what she can do then?"
Mother Ye refused, "I won’t find one for you, don’t stir up more trouble."
"If you don’t want that little brat to really take your soul away tomorrow, then behave." Mother Ye hoped to use this opportunity to rectify her daughter’s ways, which wouldn’t be a bad thing.
Ye Ying’s face fell, seething with anger inside.
She wished she could tear Gu Lili into pieces.
However, she wanted to find the so-called master herself.
She didn’t dare to tell her mother this thought and kept it in her heart.
Due to the shock, Ye Ying didn’t dare to sleep alone that night and only felt at ease sleeping with her mother.
