Category: Those Years When We Killed the White Lotus

“Whatever you want, I’m fine with anything.” Due to the male lead in this world is a bit younger than the original Lu Feng, Wenren Lan and Wenren Ling are just like his younger brother, in Lin Zisheng’s eyes. Hence, the pampering and care that he would give his sister are poured into them, making him treat the ‘two people’ more gently.

“Okay. Then, Ah Feng, let’s have afternoon tea first. Then we go to the movies, and finally have dinner, okay?” Wenren Ling became happier when he heard Lin Zisheng’s answer. It is a correct decision to sneak out earlier today.

Lin Zisheng smiled and rubbed Wenren Ling’s head. Then he fastened his seat belt.

Sensing a strong brotherly love from Lin Zisheng, Wenren Ling expressed his dissatisfaction. He couldn’t tell why, but he felt a little uncomfortable being looked at like a younger brother.

“Aren’t you busy with your work?” Lin Zisheng asked, seeing Wenren Ling with a complicated expression. What happened to this person?

“It’s not busy at work. There’s Lan to deal with it anyway so I just need to deal simpler matters.” Although Wenren Lan and Wenren Ling are the same person, because of their different personalities, they are good at different things.

Wenren Ling handles things straightforwardly and crudely. The moment he decided, he will settle the matter directly, and he will not be soft with his approach. But Wenren Lan is just the opposite. His thinking is like a mountain road with 18 curves and bends. After scheming others, he could even make the victim return to say thank you, so Wenren Lan handles most of the official issues in order to maximize the benefits.

Lin Zisheng is a little bit dumbfounded after hearing this answer, but he also understood that it’s the truth. Wenren Ling’s personality is indeed not suitable for handling too delicate things. After he interacted more about these ‘two people’ for a while, Lin Zisheng also knows the two people better.

Wenren Lan is calm while Wenren Ling’s strength value is off the chart. These two people are simply the most complementary existence. Similarly, Lin Zisheng understood the reason for the two people to form such a personality. Lin Zisheng didn’t know very clearly about the Wenren family, but the scandal was so big back then and the owner of this body hadn’t gone abroad yet. Some news can easily be heard of even if one didn’t deliberately inquire about it.

Wenren Lan and Wenren Ling’s father abandoned their mother right after the death of their grandfather, old master Wenren. Their father even forced their mother to death in order to obtain the Wenren family’s assets. No one could guess the outcome but the result was everything Wen Hao did was in vain. Also, the reason why Wenren Lan is still alive is because his father Wen Hao now lost the ability to create new offspring. Of course, apart from him, there are quite a few people alive in this world who know the inside story of this matter.

The reason why Wen Hao lost his fertility is not from natural causes. The old Wenren had already seen Wen Hao’s ambitions and knew that once Wen Hao took charge of the Wenren family, whether it is his daughter or grandson, they would meet the dead-end! That’s why the old Wenren would think of such ruthless trick and strike first. As long as Wenhao has no offspring, then at least his grandson can survive. The reason why Lin Zisheng knows about this is because the old man Wenren asked Lu Feng’s uncle for help.

After a while, Wenren Ling took Lin Zisheng to a coffee shop. After seeing this coffee shop, Lin Zisheng smiled. This person is paid attention and understood his likings.

“I know their cake is very delicious, so let’s try it today?” There’s a hint of pride in Wenren Ling’s voice as if he is proud to show that he understands Lin Zisheng’s preferences.

“Okay.”

Seeing the other party presenting the shop like he is offering a treasure, Lin Zisheng had a smile in his eyes. Very similar. There are a lot of times when Wenren Ling acted quite like his sister, so he always unconsciously added those affections onto this person.

The two walked into the coffee shop and the gaze from people around them are a little weird. Most of the people who came to this coffee shop are lovers. Of course, it’s not like people of the same gender didn’t come here together, but the atmosphere between them really makes people think of something else. Can’t help it, who made Wenren Ling’s gaze so hot when it fell on Lin Zisheng? It is almost burning a hole in him.

After ordering Lin Zisheng’s coffee and desserts, Wenren Ling simply sat there and stared at him blankly. Due to them are quite familiar with each other, Lin Zisheng would occasionally remove his flat glasses, the one which made Wenren Ling feel very obtrusive. Whenever the glasses are removed, Wenren Ling couldn’t help but stare at those slightly raised phoenix eyes, until the other party couldn’t help frowning.

“Ah Feng, your eyes are so beautiful.” Wenren Ling saw Lin Zisheng frowned and sighed in regret. It would be great if Ah Feng could let him take a few more looks.

“If so, how about I just take off my glasses?” Lin Zisheng smiled, took a sip of the coffee that was just served, and squinted his eyes with enjoyment. This shop is really good. It seems that he can come here to drink coffee when he’s free in the future.

Hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, Wenren Ling opened his eyes wide. After a long while, he hesitantly said, “Don’t. Ah Feng, you should wear glasses. It makes people think that, en… you are very trustworthy. Yup, that’s it.”

After saying that, Wenren Ling secretly patted himself in his heart. He didn’t want to share his own little welfare with other people. Ah Feng already have many ‘bees and butterflies’ flying around him when he didn’t take off his glasses. If he takes it off, then… Thinking of this possibility, Wenren Ling struck a big cross in his heart. This absolutely cannot turn into reality.

“Sir… Sir, please let me go. I am a decent person and don’t want to be someone else’s mistress!” A somewhat sharp voice sounded, causing Wenren Ling to frown. He chose this place because he heard that the environment is famously good, what’s going on now?!

Lin Zisheng raised his eyebrows after hearing this voice. Perhaps Wenren Ling did not recognize the voice, but he recognize it right away. This person is the receptionist of his private clinic – Bai Qing.

“Ah Feng?” Seeing Lin Zisheng suddenly reveal an inexplicable smile on his face, Wenren Ling’s heart felt alarmed. No matter who the woman was just now, she must have attracted Ah Feng’s attention!

“Wait here, I need to settle something and will come back soon.”  At this moment, being the hero to save the beauty should be able to improve a lot of favorability points. After thinking of this, Lin Zisheng stood up and walked towards Bai Qing.

Wenren Ling could only grit his teeth and watched this scene unfold. So he followed behind Lu Feng helplessly. He wanted to help Ah Feng to be alert, in case the woman turned shameless and start to bother him.

At this moment, the two people at another table not far away didn’t even know what is going to happen, and the farce is still going on.

“Sir, please be respectful. This is a coffee shop. Please don’t behave inappropriately.” Bai Qing said righteously. She chooses this place to work because of the safe environment. Most of the customers are reputable people and they won’t do anything bad in the public. She didn’t expect to encounter such an odd one out today.

“Don’t pretend to be innocent here. Just say it, as long as you agree to follow me, you can state how much money you need.” The other party’s voice is very contemptuous, making Bai Qing’s face flushed in an instant. Humiliation filled her eyes. What does he mean by that? Does he think of her as those cheap women?

Bai Qing does love money and doesn’t mind selling out her marriage for money, but all of this must be based on being able to get married. If she is just a mistress who will come and go at his will, she will never agree!

“Sir, please have some respect!” Bai Qing struggled hard, but couldn’t break away from the big hand gripping her wrist.

“Tsk, you really love to act!” After saying this, the man stretched out his hand to Bai Qing’s face, wanting to touch her.

With a ‘PA’, everyone present is stunned. Although it is said that this store encounters very few weird customers, it is not uncommon. Every time they met such a person, they would choose to swallow their anger, but today this person’s temper is really strong!

“Beech, how dare you hit me?!”

Feeling the hot and scorching pain on his face, the man’s expression looked distorted. No one has ever dared to hit him in his life. This woman ‘ate a leopard’s guts’ huh?! The man raised his right hand high and slapped towards Bai Qing’s face fiercely. People who are close enough even faintly heard the wind whistling. Obviously, this slap is not weak. If hit, Bai Qing’s face would probably be ruined.

“It’s not a good habit to hit a woman. This is a public place, it’s better to have a little bit more manners.” Just when the opponent’s hand is about to fall on Bai Qing’s face, a big hand held the man’s wrist. Although the accompanying voice sounded gentle, the strength gripping his hands is not small at all.

“You, who are you?! Let go!” Feeling the pain from his wrist, the man made a scream like a pig.

Good for nothing people like this who likes to hit women are usually gutless. Just exerting a little bit of strength can scare the man into releasing the hand holding Bai Qing. Seeing the other party let go, Lin Zisheng pulled Bai Qing behind him. Then he looks at the man with a bit of disgust in his eyes, “Who am I? Boss Wan, I haven’t seen you for a few days and you don’t even remember who I am now. This Lu is really ashamed.”

Banana: Sorry to break immersion here. Just want to clarify the weird sentence above. Lin Zisheng said 陆某, which directly translated as Lu someone. The word ‘someone’ here is used when people refer to themselves using just their surname, which there’s no way to translate it properly in English _(;3/ dies

Hearing the surname Lu and the sentence ‘haven’t seen for a few days’, Wan Qi shuddered. He remembered this Mr.Lu clearly. A few days ago, he wanted to discuss a business with the Lu company. But when he saw this person whose aura is nice and clean, coupled with the fact that he didn’t know the identity of this person, he had some bad intentions. For that, he paid a heavy price. Hence, when he saw this person, the muscles of his leg would unconsciously spasm.

“No, I dare not. Mr. Lu, how dare I not know you? Are you drinking coffee here too? It’s my treat, my treat!” Now, Wan Qi hastened to express his submission. If this man really seeks trouble with him again at this time, he might as well go and kill himself.

“Ah Feng came with me, so there is no need for you to treat him!” Wenren Ling said with a cold voice. His expression looking at Wan Qi is full of malice. Wenren Ling doesn’t like other people to approach Lin Zisheng, no matter who it is.

Because of Lin Zisheng, Wenren Ling would often go to that restaurant where he usually dines. After going back and forth and getting acquainted with the owner, Wenren Ling came to know a lot about Lin Zisheng. From the shopkeeper’s mouth, Wenren Ling learned that he(WRL) is one of Lin Zisheng few friends. Upon knowing that, Wenren Lan and Wenren Ling were happy for several days. Now if another person caught Lin Zisheng’s attention, they would be very upset.

Hearing the rebut, Wan Qi turned his head and wanted to swear. But after seeing Wenren Ling’s face, his whole body trembled. The two giants in City B appeared in such a small coffee shop and saw him taking advantage of a waitress, what kind of sin he did in his last life?!

“Since you two have an appointment, I won’t be bothering you then.” After saying this, Wan Qi threw a few hundred yuan bills on the table and hurriedly left. He doesn’t want to seek death by continuing to stay in the cafe.

“Doctor Lu, thank you for your help.”

Seeing that person left, Bai Qing felt like her whole body is going to turn jelly. She never thought that she would encounter such a thing. If Lin Zisheng didn’t show up in time today, she’s afraid the end won’t be good for her.

“Don’t be so polite, at the very least, you are still my employee. I can’t just stand by when I see you in trouble outside.”

Lin Zisheng’s words are very reasonable, and he has always been very gentle in the eyes of outsiders. For people who are in trouble, helping others is a matter of course.

“No matter what, Dr. Lu, thank you.” Bai Qing smiled at Lin Zisheng after saying this. Then she turned and left. In fact, she wanted to stay here and talk to him more, but Wenren Ling’s eyes on her are too sharp that she didn’t dare to stay.

Seeing Bai Qing keep glancing back while slowly leaving, a smile appeared on the corners of Lin Zisheng’s mouth. It seemed that the side mission is not so difficult to complete. Lin Zisheng can’t make himself to deliberately seduce the female lead and abandon her after making her fall for him. But if this is the other party’s wishful thinking, what does it have to do with him? Lin Zisheng knows that he is being hypocritical, but he just wants to live for himself. He wanted to go back to his own world by any means.

“Ah Feng, do you like that person?” After they returned to their original seats, Wenren Ling asked carefully. He didn’t like to know that there’s someone in Ah Feng’s heart. That would make him worry about whether Ah Feng would leave behind him for other people.

At the moment, Wenren Ling seems to be a person who has been living in the dark, and Lin Zisheng is the only sunshine in his dark life. Right now, there might be someone who will take away his sunshine, how could Wenren Ling not worry?

“I don’t like her, but if I see my employees in trouble outside and doesn’t help them, it’s a bit unethical to me.” Of course, Lin Zisheng also took the opportunity to complete the side task for himself.

In this manner, the two chatted with minimal words. After drinking the afternoon tea, Lin Zisheng and Wenren Ling went to the cinema to watch a movie. Not sure what this man was thinking, but Wenren Ling chose the most popular romance movie, making Lin Zisheng yawned from time to time.

“Ah Feng, is the movie I chose today too boring? I’m really sorry.” Wenren Ling’s voice is full of apology. He only hoped to spend more time with Ah Feng today, but completely forgot whether Ah Feng would like this movie or not.

“It’s okay, let’s go to dinner.”

Wenren Ling took Lin Zisheng to a western restaurant as he planned, but he didn’t expect to bump into a person he didn’t want to see – Wen Hao.

“Why are you here?” After seeing Wenren Ling, Wen Hao’s eyes were full of disgust, as if he is not looking at his own son, but an enemy.

“Heh, you can be here, so why can’t I,” Wenren Ling said faintly and his tone is full of disgust as well, “I’ll be taking my leave if there’s nothing to say.”

After saying this, Wenren Ling pulled Lin Zisheng away. Since there is an annoying person, they won’t be having dinner here to avoid feeling nauseous.

However, though Wenren Ling wanted to leave, the other party is unwilling to let him go. Especially when that person saw the person standing beside Wenren Ling, the gender is a man. Wen Hao has had some thoughts in his heart over the years. He tried to place a woman beside Wenren Lan more than once. If he can grasp Wenren Lan within his control, the Wenren family’s business will become his and his wife’s. But no woman ever appears beside Wenren Lan, so Wen Hao can’t do anything about it. And now, a man appeared next to Wenren Lan, making him doubt that this kid prefers males instead of females.

Tsk, how disgusting. You already have a mental illness, and you are adding [homo][se][xual] to it? Wen Hao felt sick to think such a person is his own son! But this is also a good opportunity. This man doesn’t look like a rich man. As long as he can be controlled, won’t Wenren Lan listen to him obediently then?

At the same time, on the other side.

“Father.”

After returning home, Wenren Ling saw the person sitting in the living room drinking coffee comfortably, and strong killing intent flashed in his eyes. After abandoning his mother, this person still didn’t let her go and forced her to death. After that, he indulged his true love and let her harm him again and again. If not because this man found out that he became sterile and cannot get another child, Wenren Ling afraid that he would have long killed by these 2 people!

“You’re back. So, have you thought about the things I said?” Although Wenren Ling is now neatly dressed, Wen Hao can still see the bruises on his body in some places. As expected, he has been given a severe lesson yesterday.

“I have already considered it,” Wenren Ling chuckled, but the smile on his face was full of malice. “Father, I have already made a will. The moment I died, everything under my name will be donated to the charity organization. So father, pray for me to live well!”

Didn’t these two people always thinking about his wealth, and even wanted to take his life for that little wealth? In that case, he will make them understand how it feels like ‘using a wicker basket to draw water’!

“You, you, you rebellious son!” Originally, Wen Hao thought that after yesterday’s events, Wenren Lan would understand his current situation and would give up everything to him. Wen Hao did not expect Wenren Lan would strike first and gain the upper hand, “Why did you do this? How would your mother in Heaven think about it, have you ever thought about that?!”

“Heh, Wen Hao, do you still have the face to mention my mother?” Finally, the peace on Wenren Ling’s face is completely broken by Wen Hao’s words, “If mother in heaven knew what I did, she would definitely clap her hands and applaud! Don’t forget how you forced my mother to divorce, and how you forced my mother to die for your true love! You are just a ‘married in’ son-in-law!”

‘Married in’.

Wen Hao’s entire face turned blue when he heard this label again. It is what he hated to hear the most for so many years. At that time of marriage, due to his poor family background, he had to marry into the family instead. Finally, after waiting so long for the old master to die, Wen Hao divorced his wife and finally married his beloved woman. When he thought everything would go well, he found out that he can no longer have more children. To add to that, that old man actually given all his family property to his son, Wenren Lan. Neither he nor his ex-wife got any of the inheritance.

“Father, you’d better not make any unwise actions at this time. Otherwise, you might not live in this villa tomorrow.” Wenren Ling is not joking. The moment he dies, everything under his name will be donated to non-profit organizations. Then, Wen Hao will really have to eat grass!

“You unfilial son, you will be punished by Heaven sooner or later!” Hearing Wenren Ling’s words, Wen Hao felt like he is going crazy, but he can’t do anything about it. He believes Wenren Ling will act on his words. Wen Hao couldn’t afford to gamble. If Wenren Ling died, the inheritance will really be donated. Then, they won’t have anyone to cry on.

“That… Xiao Lan, he is your father, why do you treat him like this?!” When the father and son are facing off each other, a beautiful woman walked down from the second floor. Her gaze looked at Wen Hao carried an obvious heartache.

“Heh, what are you?” Wenren Ling looked at the beautiful young woman, his disdain in his eyes can’t be more obvious, “Don’t think you are really the madam in this family. If I want to, I can get you two to scram at any time!”

The woman’s face turned dark, and Wen Hao stopped her when she wanted to say something. Right now, they really can’t afford to offend this kid!

Back in his room, Wenren Ling lay on the bed and fell asleep unknowingly. A few minutes later, the person who was sleeping opened his eyes again. At this time, there is no madness in his eyes, just dead silence.

Obviously, the personality switched and this person is no longer Wenren Ling, but Wenren Lan.

Taking out his mobile phone and looking at the newly added number, Wenren Lan hesitated a bit. Through the memory of his other side, Wenren Lan knew who this person is. And now, he just wanted to find someone to talk to, but he just doesn’t know if he should trouble that person at this time. It’s just that Wenren Lan didn’t expect that his actions would be faster than his brain’s reaction. When he came to his senses, a gentle voice rang in his ears.

“Hello? Mr. Wenren, do you have anything to ask?”

At the moment when he heard Lin Zisheng’s voice, Wenren Lan felt his brain turned blank. The gentle voice washed away all the irritability like cool spring water and calmed him down. He opened his mouth but couldn’t make himself call the other person Ah Feng, “Mr. Lu, do you have time later? I hope to meet, maybe it should be said, I need a psychiatrist.”

In fact, both he and Ling hate psychologists very much. Although those people strongly said there would be a solution, they always looking at them with a different gaze from ordinary people like they are not normal. It’s really disgusting. But if it’s this person, Wenren Lan thinks they should be able to accept it.

“I’m alright to meet and chat, but I don’t think meeting as a psychiatrist is necessary. I think Mr. Wenren is in a very healthy state of mind.” Lin Zisheng sat on the balcony and picked up a cup of coffee. He took a sip, and squint his eyes with enjoyment. The fragrant coffee and the rich chocolate aroma are really enjoyable indeed.

[Host-daren, are you spouting nonsense with your eyes open now? How does the male lead healthy?] The man has split personality disorder, how can he be healthy?

“If not considering the split personality, Wenren Lan’s condition is very good. Even Wenren Ling gave off a stable feeling. Hence, saying that they have no problem is not a lie.” Lin Zisheng’s answer made 001 really weak, and it could only sigh and squat in a corner.

“Then, I will wait for Mr. Lu today.” After the two agreed on the location, Wen Renlan’s mood is obviously much better. Seeing that the time is about to come, he went out of his room. In the living room, he saw the disgusting couple talking closely to each other. Wen Renlan sneered and prepared to go out without saying anything.

“Stop right there!” Seeing that Wenren Lan wanting to leave without saying anything, Wen Hao’s expression became gloomy again, “Didn’t you see that your parents are here? Wenren Lan, where are your manners?”

Looking at the two acting like his elders, Wenren Lan felt disgusted in his heart, “Parents? Are you worthy? All I see is a person who forced my mother to death and a shameless woman.”

After saying this, Wenren Lan slammed the door and left. As for whether the two people got angry to death or not, what does it have to do with him?

Arriving at the promised coffee shop, Wenren Lan found that Lin Zisheng had arrived early.

“I’m sorry to come late even though I’m the one who invited you.” Looking at Lin Zisheng sitting there quietly, Wenren Lan apologized. If he had known, he would come out earlier.

“It’s okay, I just arrived too.” Then, Lin Zisheng asked with a smile as Wenren Lan ordered coffee, “Why is Mr. Wenren looking for me?”

Hearing Lin Zisheng’s voice, Wenren Lan subconsciously raised his head to see the person in front of him. He is wearing a white casual suit with a light gray shirt inside and a pair of light blue water-brushed jeans underneath. His appearance looked refreshing and gentle.

“Mr. Lu, you are not nearsighted so why do you wear glasses?” Although looking through the lens is a little blurry, Wenren Lan could still see that Lin Zisheng had a pair of beautiful eyes.

“It’s nothing, I just got used to it,” Lin Zisheng didn’t explain much about why he wears glasses. “Mr. Wenren still hasn’t said why you want to see me?”

After hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, Wenren Lan is a little nervous, “I… what I said earlier is true. I think I need a psychologist because I have a split personality disorder. Although… although it doesn’t affect my normal life, I don’t want this to be an excuse for ‘that person’ to attack me.”

After saying this, Wenren Lan lowered his head. Although he had decided to tell this person about his own affairs, he is still afraid of seeing a look of disgust in his eyes.

“Then you… aren’t Wenren Ling?” Lin Zisheng frowned and asked. Although there is no disgust in his eyes, the originally gentle and comfortable aura became a lot stiffer.

“I, I’m Wenren Lan,” Wenren Lan seemed to think of something, and then hurriedly continued, “Actually, we met. You lent me an umbrella when it rained a few days ago.”

Similarly, it is also because that umbrella allowed Wenren Lan to find his future direction again. That so-called father could not even be compared to an outsider. What qualifications does such a person have to be his father? What qualifications does he have to obtain everything from the Wenren Family?

“It turns out that it was you that day,” Lin Zisheng’s coldness disappeared a bit after hearing Wenren Lan’s words. Then he pushed his glasses and slowly said, “Your body is very important. Don’t abuse yourself because of certain things.”

Hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, Wenren Lan is taken aback. Then, he put on a happy smile on his face, Lu Feng is indeed a warm person.

“As for the treatment,” Lin Zisheng frowned. He took out a business card and handed it to Wenren Lan, “In private time, I don’t talk about official business. So if you want to talk about treatment, please come to my private clinic on Monday.”

“Okay, I will definitely come.” Although Wenren Lan has a meeting on Monday, it is not very important, at least not as important as getting along with this person.

The two went home after drinking afternoon tea. As for what happened after Wenren Lan returned home, there’s nothing to mention about. At least, he wouldn’t be the unlucky person.

On Monday morning, Lin Zisheng drove to his private clinic. Unexpectedly, the first person he saw when walked in is Bai Qing.

Lin Zisheng: …hehe, it should be said that this world is really persistent.

Originally, Lin Zisheng thought that the female lead would not appear in front of him after these two events. What he didn’t expect is that the world revised the plot again, and Bai Qing eventually became the receptionist of his clinic.

“Mr. Lu, you… are you coming to see the doctor?” Looking at the gentle Lin Zisheng, Bai Qing’s eyes are full of surprise. In her mind, a gentle person like Lin Zisheng should not have any mental illness.

Lin Zisheng didn’t answer but smiled. Then he went straight to the room at the end of the corridor. After he came out, Lin Zisheng had put on a white lab coat and looked like a doctor. At this point, even Bai Qing is stupid, she also understood who is Lin Zisheng. She had heard that the owner of this private clinic is a doctor with the surname Lu, but she did not expect this person to be Mr. Lu.

Looking at Bai Qing blushing with embarrassment, Lin Zisheng just told her to work hard and entered his room, waiting for the patient to arrive.

The location of Lu Feng’s clinic is very hidden. Basically, no one will come except acquaintances, and Lu Feng only accepts one patient a day. Unless an appointment is made in advance, Lu Feng will not accept anyone even if they come to the clinic. After Lin Zisheng came to this world, he thinks that Lu Feng’s decision regarding the appointment are very good, so he continued the tradition. Hence, Lin Zisheng is feeling very leisurely.

Bai Qing watched Lin Zisheng walk into the room, with a bit of disappointment in her eyes. Young, excellent, and rich. Although his job as a psychiatrist makes her heart feels a little creepy, but he is indeed a very good candidate. It’s a pity… But since she is working here now, it is still possible for her to get familiarized with him first. Just when Bai Qing is thinking about it, someone walked up to her. Before she could see who came, she had already spoken, “Hello sir, do you have an appointment?”

“Appointment? I don’t know, Mr. Lu asked me to come today.” After hearing Bai Qing’s words, Wenren Lan frowned. He doesn’t know the rules here. Does he need to make an appointment?

“That…” Bai Qing raised her head and is about to say something like ‘it is very regrettable but I can only ask you to leave first’ but found that the person standing in front of her is that young man that she encountered twice. Bai Qing asked, “You, hello, why are you here?”

“Mr. Lu asked me to come over today, can you please help me to ask him?” Although it is not him but Ling who faced this person yesterday, Wenren Lan still has no good feelings for her.

“Please wait a moment, I’ll go ask.”

At this moment, the door of the room suddenly opened. Lin Zisheng stood at the door and looked at the two people. “In the future, just let him come in directly without an appointment.” In order to complete the task, Lin Zisheng needs to have more contact with the male lead. He doesn’t want to suddenly hear the news that Bai Qing got dismembered by Wenren Ling.

“But Dr. Lu…” This order made Bai Qing felt difficult, “If someone gets special treatment, other patients will find it unfair.”

“I’m not having a competition here that I need to be fair. If they really feel unfair, they don’t need to come. I’m not forcing anyone.” Lu Feng opened this clinic only because of his own interests, while Lin Zisheng simply needed this status so as not to be too OOC with his character.

“Yes, I understand.” Since the boss already said so, what qualifications does a small employee like her have to talk about?

Lin Zisheng glanced at Wenren Lan, then turned his head towards the room to beckon him to follow, and then walked into the room.

“Mr. Lu, can you tell me about the treatment process? I hope I can understand more to facilitate cooperation.” Wenren Lan closed the door smoothly, and then sat on the sofa opposite Lin Zisheng, relaxing his body.

“Truth to be told, I didn’t want to treat you for that. Although you have a split personality right now, according to my observation, both personalities are very stable and have no tendency to violence.” After saying this, Lin Zisheng looked at Wenren Lan and smiled. He said, “Actually, you don’t want to cure this little problem yourself too, do you?”

Lin Zisheng can feel that Wenren Lan’s feelings for his alter are very different, it’s like they are brothers. Although they used to be one person, they have now become independent personalities, that is, two people. Trying to cure the disorder would mean either Wenren Lan and Wenren Ling murdering the person closest to him.

“That’s right. For us, we are each other’s relatives.” Wenren Lan is shocked. Anyone who knew that he had a split personality disorder doesn’t know about this truth. In fact, he didn’t want the other personality to disappear at all. Only this person in front of him realized, no one else.

“So, what do you need me to do for you?” Lin Zisheng sat there casually, with a gentle attitude and being very relaxed, as if he was facing a friend, not a patient who might be mentally abnormal.

Wenren Lan felt very comfortable with Lin Zisheng’s attitude because, in Lin Zisheng’s eyes, he is a normal person, not a patient with possible mental disorders, let alone a crazy person.

“My request may be too much, but I hope you can think about it,” Wenren Lan paused, then said to Lin Zisheng in a sincere tone, “I hope you can help me adjust and let other people know that my symptoms have been properly handled. Although my disorder will reoccur, there is no frequent personality change any more.”

“I’m fine with it,” Lin Zisheng nodded. In fact, he can feel it. Although Wenren Ling is a bit dangerous, the alter still tries to imitate the main personality in front of people, so he should be able to guarantee that he will not be discovered. “In the future, if you have any questions, you can come to me at any time, you don’t need to make an appointment like others.”

“Okay, thank you.” Wenren Lan felt very happy to get this permission. In his and Ling’s hearts, this person is special. Now that this person behaves like this, can they also expect that they are special in this person’s heart?

And so, Wenren Lan can be seen appearing in Lin Zisheng’s clinic every day. Other patients who come to their therapy will feel very uncomfortable at the beginning, but fortunately, he never enters the treatment room with them, so everyone does not have any negative feelings. As for later… everyone gets used to it. Sometimes, they even teased Dr. Lu before the treatment, asking if the young man outside is his suitor, and every time Lin Zisheng heard it, he don’t know if he should laugh or cry.

During this period, Lin Zisheng also discovered that Wenren Lan paid too much attention to him. No, not only Wenren Lan, but also Wenren Ling, but because they both didn’t have any special expressions, Lin Zisheng couldn’t say more. He can only accompany the ‘two people’ to dinner every day. Yes, two. Wenren Ling and Wenren Lan seem to have come to an agreement. If the person who had dinner with him today is Wenren Lan, then tomorrow will definitely become Wenren Ling. This alternate appearance makes Lin Zisheng a little bit dumbfounded.

“Where do you want to go for dinner today?” Lin Zisheng heard the other person’s voice after opening the door of the passenger seat. In an instant, he understood who this person is.

Needless to say, it must be Wenren Ling. As 001 said, since he took Wenren Ling home from that alley, he seems to have really tamed the alter personality. This wild person will be very well-behaved whenever he appeared in front of him. Lin Zisheng could imagine if Wenren Ling had a tail, this person would wag his tail rapidly every time he saw him.

[Banana: Dying… apparently all chapters in Arc 3 and 4 has 9k word count each wt.f?! _(;3/]

[Banana: Please take note that the ML’s name has been adjusted. Apparently, Wenren is the surname, not Wen alone. Surname with 2 syllables is kind of rare like Murong, Nalan, Ouyang… But Banana never heard of Wenren before, hence the mistake _(;3/ I will amend Chapter 3.01 later]

Looking at Lin Zisheng with a broad smile on his face, 001 didn’t want to tell the host-daren why the male lead became like this.

“What is it? Do you have an opinion about me?” Looking at 001’s squinted gaze, although Lin Zisheng didn’t know what it is thinking, he could still understand more or less the meaning in its eyes.

[No, host-daren, how can this small one dare to have any opinion about you?] After going through 2 worlds, 001 didn’t learn many skills but polished its skill in flattery.

“I should be meeting the female lead in a few days. I wonder how the female lead will react after seeing me.” Lin Zisheng didn’t miss the look in Bai Qing’s eyes last night like she is looking at her prey. If she can get in close contact with him, who knows what kind of action she will have?

“But speaking of it, I still have to thank the female lead for this kind of greedy personality, because this side mission is very easy to complete.” When he first read the information about this world, Lin Zisheng more or less will feel a psychological burden to complete the mission, which is to get FL fall for him then dump her.

001: Cho… chotto matte. Host-daren, did you awakened your evil side?

“But I’m quite curious about one thing,” Lin Zisheng pushed the flat glasses on the bridge of his nose and said slowly while looking out the window. “It is said that every world has its own laws, and something that has been set to happen will definitely happen. Since I took the male lead away yesterday, I wonder in what way will the male and female lead meet today?”

Hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, 001 is also taken aback. It just remembered that this is indeed the case. The rules of this world cannot be broken. Just like in the first world, Bai Wei is not qualified to participate in the Christmas ball at all, but she is still brought into the venue. So, no matter how the plot is changed, something bound to happen would still happen.

[Host-daren, you want to watch the scene?]

001 blinked. Seeing Lin Zisheng’s interested look to watch the show, it silently lit a row of candles for the male and female lead in its heart. Every time host-daren wanted to watch the show, someone be in bad luck. Watching the show is a must, but how to enjoy it is something that needs to be carefully considered.

“001, can you find the current location of the male lead?” If they knew the location, they can watch the show in better view.

[Yes, after the end of the 1st world, while the host leveled up, the system bound to the host will also be upgraded accordingly.] This is the reason why 001 and Lin Zisheng have to constantly fulfill missions. They can only become stronger by doing the missions continuously.

“Do you have any new abilities besides this?” Since 001 said that this is the ability acquired after the end of the 1st world, then it should have another new ability after the 2nd world.

[The main system does not tell what the newly acquired ability is, it will only be activated when the host needs it.] While talking, 001 is looking for the location of the male and female lead, [Host, their location has been found. Coordinates: 237, -51, that is the restaurant where the original owner of your body often eats.]

This answer is beyond Lin Zisheng’s expectations, but he could understand what is going on when he thought about it carefully. He thinks after they left the alley yesterday, Bai Qing chased behind them all the way to his apartment area. She then wandered outside for the whole night because she couldn’t get in. He has to say, she is really persevering!

“Let’s watch it later, otherwise the show hasn’t started yet if we go now.” Though Lin Zisheng’s mouth is smiling, his slightly squinted eyes are obviously ill-intentioned.

…

At this moment, Wenren Ling on the other side seemed to be in a bad situation.

“Miss, what’s the matter with you? I don’t think I know you.” Although Wenren Ling tried his best to imitate Wenren Lan, the alter is obviously much more irritable than his main personality. Looking at the woman who suddenly appeared in the way, Wenren Ling’s impatience became stronger and stronger.

“No, nothing.” Bai Qing smiled softly, with a gentle and soft smile. After seeing such a smile, most people would relax their vigilance and would like to talk to her.

Bai Qing’s family is not doing good, because her mother is not capable of working. When she was young, she had been dealing with relatives so she developed a pair of good eyes that can see through people and a mouth that can talk favorably with other people. In the past, relying on these two abilities, Bai Qing can be regarded as favorable. Coupled with her gentle and pleasant temperament, very few people would feel badly about her. It’s just that today… she seems to have kicked the iron plate.

Under normal circumstances, when someone looked like they have something to say but said ‘Nothing’ instead, people will subconsciously ask what’s wrong. After that, the words that Bai Qing prepared beforehand will be able to use. Who would have thought that Wenren Ling would be unreasonable and doesn’t follow the plot? After she said it’s nothing, he really regarded it as nothing and turned around after a goodbye.

“This gentleman, wait, is your health okay? I am a nurse and can help you see the wound.” Although she didn’t see the injury on Wenren Ling clearly yesterday, she is sure that he was really injured.

“You investigated me?” After hearing these words, Wenren Ling, who was originally gentle, showed a killing intent. As if a beast that came out of the cage, and it would tear its prey into pieces if one is not careful.

Bai Qing has never seen such a fierce person before. She is so scared that she immediately slumped in her seat. She didn’t understand why a simple question would cause this person to change his expression abruptly. Shouldn’t injured people need the care of others the most?

Bai Qing’s thought is generally correct, but there is still a difference with each individual. Moreover, Wenren Ling is still in a sensitive period from the injury. If someone investigated his affairs, Lu Feng may get affected. He is the only person who gave him warmth, so how could he be careless in his matters?

“No, no, yesterday… I was by your side when you were injured yesterday. Then another gentleman forcibly took you away. I got a little worried, so I followed up and took a look.” Bai Qing looked at Wenren Ling, there is a genuine worry in her eyes.

If Wenren Ling hadn’t met Lin Zisheng first, he might felt moved by this person. It’s a pity that he met Lin Zisheng first, and Lin Zisheng helped not only Wenren Ling but Wenren Lan as well.

“Then you mean you saved me?” Wenren Ling narrowed his eyes and stared at Bai Qing’s neck as if he is studying where to start taking action.

“No, I…I didn’t mean that.” Seeing Wenren Ling acting like this, Bai Qing couldn’t understand how the other party feel dissatisfied with her. She quickly explained, “Yesterday… Yesterday I found you with that gentleman, he, he is a man, so I am worried that he can’t take care of you with his roughness.”

Bai Qing’s voice sounded sincere. Looking at her, one would know that her words are sincere. Although it is said that due to the hardship she suffered in her childhood that Bai Qing has developed a greedy character, but it can’t obliterate her kind and gentle side.

“Thanks a lot, is there anything else?” Wenren Ling insincerely thanked Bai Qing and then prepared to leave. Wenren Ling never has good feelings for such uninvited people, so it is already rare that he can spare a few words for her.

“That, sir, can I ask your name, my name is…”

“I’m not interested in knowing your name. I don’t think you need to know my name either.” Seeing that Bai Qing is going to continue talking, Wenren Ling becomes more irritable. If this person is that gentle man, maybe he is still willing to listen. It’s a pity that it’s such a long-winded woman in front of him. All Wenren Ling wanted to do now is leaving the restaurant early, “We only randomly met once, miss, you asked too much.”

“I…I didn’t mean anything special, but, I just saw you hurt yesterday, so… I was a little worried.” Bai Qing looked at Wenren Ling with obvious sincerity in her eyes, hoping that the other party could understand that she only want to make sure he is well.

Just as Bai Qing wanted to explain something, the bell at the door rang softly. The door is pushed open from the outside, and a man walked in. He is dressed casually in white casual clothes, but the man looked more eye-catching in this appearance.

The shopkeeper, who had been watching the gossip on the sidelines, walked up quickly to the incoming person and said, “Mr. Lu, you are here. Are you ordering the usual?”

Lin Zisheng looked at the shopkeeper and nodded. With a gentle smile at the corners of his mouth, he replied, “It’s the usual, have to trouble you.”

After hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, the shopkeeper shook his head and said that it’s not troublesome. Then he got the order to be prepared as soon as possible. The shopkeeper’s attitude is completely different from the indifference when other people entered the door just now. This makes Bai Qing’s expression turn a little ugly, but the people around seemed to be used to this kind of treatment a long time ago and didn’t say much.

“How is Xiao Hui now? Is he in good health?”

Xiao Hui is the son of the owner of this shop. He got ill a year ago and nearly lost his life due to being misdiagnosed. At that time, the owner of this body couldn’t bear to see such a young life gone so he lend a hand. From then, they connected with this good karma.

When hearing questions about his son, the shopkeeper had a happy smile on his face, “Don’t worry, Mr. Lu. Xiao Hui’s health is almost fully recovered. Thank you very much. If it wasn’t you, my son might have lost his life by that quack doctor.” Now when he recalled the scene at the time, the shopkeeper still has a lingering fear.

Bai Qing, who was eavesdropping on the side, felt a little embarrassed. Earlier, she said that Lu Feng might be rough and careless. But now it has been confirmed that the other party is really a doctor, how could she not feel embarrassed?

“Ah Feng.” Wenren Ling felt a little uncomfortable seeing how happily Lin Zisheng talking with others and walked forward a few steps, “We meet again.”

“Indeed, we meet again.” Seeing Wenren Ling walk over to greet him, Lin Zisheng’s eyes flashed with an unexpected look. He really didn’t expect Wenren Ling to come forward to greet him. After all, Wenren Ling in the world information particularly stated that he is difficult to communicate with.

[Hehe, host-daren, don’t be humble.] 001’s ridiculing voice rang out. [Yesterday you saved him in that situation. Although it’s not much different from the female lead’s original script, at that time Wenren Ling is still awake so the impact is completely different. In other words, this wild beast has been successfully tamed by you. Congratulations.]

Lin Zisheng: …hehe.

“Mr. Lu, he’s your friend?” Seeing someone say hello to Lin Zisheng, the shopkeeper is surprised for a moment. One needs to know, although this Mr. Lu is very gentle, he doesn’t have any friends around him. He is always alone, so this is the first friend he saw with Mr. Lu.

“En, can be considered as a yes?” Lin Zisheng went silent for a moment before saying with a smile, “After all, I picked him up yesterday, so it’s not wrong to say that we are friends.”

Pick… Pick him up?

After hearing this sentence, the shopkeeper and Wenren Ling reacted differently. For the shopkeeper, he couldn’t help but start to imagine about how muddled this person(WRL) would be to get lost and get picked up by someone. But Wenren Ling only felt a little embarrassed. That man said…he was picked up by him, so would he(WRL) count as his possession? The little person in Wenren Ling’s heart shook his head, so Wenren Ling threw away this weird idea. He exchanged numbers with Lin Zisheng, then turned and left the restaurant.

“Mr. Lu, I thought that person should be very indifferent. I didn’t expect him to be so, en… enthusiastic.” A’int it right? The man looked at Mr. Lu like he is his god.

“Actually, I was quite surprised too.” Seeing that his lunch is ready, Lin Zisheng took the item and nodded to the shopkeeper. “I will go back to eat first. Talk to you next time.”

Just when Lin Zisheng is about to leave, Bai Qing, who had been quiet, suddenly got up and walked to Lin Zisheng’s side, “Mr. Lu, please wait a moment.”

Lin Zisheng glanced at Bai Qing with a puzzled look, as if asking her what’s the matter.

“We met yesterday, do you remember?” Bai Qing became a little excited when she saw Lin Zisheng nodded, “I…I heard that you are a doctor, can you introduce me to a job? I, I am a nursing school graduate.”

After hearing Bai Qing’s words, Lin Zisheng suddenly laughed, as if he had heard something funny, “Miss, can I ask you something?”

Seeing that Lin Zisheng seemed to agree, Bai Qing nodded immediately, her eyes full of hope.

“I don’t mean it badly but I just want to ask something. We just met yesterday, so why do you think I will help you find a job?” After saying this, Lin Zisheng picks his food without looking back. He suddenly wondered if the female lead of this world has a problem with her brain.

001: In fact, it feels that the female lead in every world is abnormal in their head. Otherwise, how could they manage to play themselves to death where they are set to be lucky?

“This lady, you must have some self-awareness. Don’t think that having a beautiful face will make everything happen. Sometimes the inside is more important.” The shopkeeper has been listening to the dialogue between this woman and the young man just now. At first, he felt that this woman has her purpose, but still quite smart. But now she seems to be just stupid.

Hearing this, Bai Qing’s face turned pale and she ran out of the restaurant. Lin Zisheng, who had been standing on the corner of the street, saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth curved up coldly.

[Host-daren, right now the plot has been disrupted by you.] 001 looked at Lin Zisheng with a look of admiration in its eyes. Its host is definitely the first one to break the CP and disrupt the plot so easily!

“Isn’t it better this way? Anyway, I’m just a cannon fodder. Even if the plot is messed up, it will not affect me much.” After Lin Zisheng finished saying this, he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and returned home in a happy mood.

Banana: Rejoice guys. I mentioned that this chapter will be split into 3 parts but I got lazy to split it 😛 so there will be only 2 parts, hehe~~

The color of the sky is a bit gray, carrying some uncomfortable feeling, it seems… like it’s going to rain. The pedestrians around are so rushed, only a person standing there looks a little dazed. The person simply stood frozen in the middle of the road, no one knows what he is thinking about. Suddenly, a car drove past him. The driver poked his head out of the window and cursed the man for seeking death (standing in the middle of the road) before whizzing away.

Not far away, a man stood under a tree unbeknownst to the person. Watching the person, the man’s eyebrows raised slightly as he asked, “001, are you sure this person is the male lead in the story?”

This person looked good and has a great temperament, but one can’t ignore the feeling of despair lingering on him. Lin Zisheng has learned from the data that the male lead in this world has always been full of spirits, whether it’s the main personality or alter. Hence, this sorrowful man doesn’t look not like a male lead at all.

[Host-daren, I adjusted your arrival time to the moment when the male lead father just learned about his split personality disorder and wanted to take everything away from him.]

After 001 said this, it gave a hehe smile, and looked at Lin Zisheng mysteriously, [This is also before the male and female lead meets for the first time. How about that? Am I considerate enough this time? If the male lead meets host-daren now, does he still have a chance to fall in love with the female lead?]

By now, 001 has discovered that his host-daren has a special ‘bending’ skill. The moment the male lead sees host-daren, he will naturally turn bent, so it is an awesome skill to the missions!

Obviously, Lin Zisheng can understand the underlying meaning of 001. After a snort, he threw a glance at it faintly, causing 001 to raise its hackles.

001: Host-daren is too terrible and I have suffered a strong internal injury, seeking comfort!

“How do the male lead and the female lead met?” Lin Zisheng is quite upset with 001, though he didn’t mind taking this shortcut, he didn’t want to have any relationship with the male lead anymore.

[The female lead picked up alter male lead when he got injured by someone sent by his father. In order not to involve the female lead in the feud, alter male lead left after waking up. Then they met for the second time in the psychological clinic. When he saw the female lead, he will ‘fall in love at first sight’.] Knowing what Lin Zisheng is worried about, 001 continues to explain to him, [Using self to repay life-saving grace can only happen between men and women. If it is between 2 men, then you can be good brothers.]

Lin Zisheng nodded after hearing the explanation of 001, obviously satisfied with the answer.

At this moment, the rain has suddenly gotten heavy, and all the pedestrians left hurriedly. Only the male lead is still standing in the middle of the road, looking confused, as if he is a child who couldn’t find his way home. The shower mist wet his hair, and his clothes also showed signs of getting wet. Lin Zisheng sighed after watching it for a while and walked up to the male lead slowly.

Wenren Lan stood in the middle of the road in confusion. He no longer knows where to go. His father’s words are still ringing in his ears, and he suddenly had the urge to laugh out loud. Yes, he is mentally ill, and he should not continue to manage the company like this. Disgusting words like these, it’s probably only his greedy father can say it. Just like when he seized Wenren Lan’s mother’s property, abandoned her, and married his true love. If it weren’t for his true love abusing him in his childhood, how would he become like this?

“Although summer is coming, it’s still easy to get sick from the rain.” Just when Wenren Lan is about to fall into the darkness and couldn’t find his way, a gentle voice sounded. He turned his head mechanically and saw a man smiling gently.

“Who are you…?” Wenren Lan asked, his voice sounded hoarse.

Wenren Lan’s gaze looking at Lin Zisheng’s eyes is as if he saw his salvation. The gaze is so eager that it makes Lin Zisheng felt a little uncomfortable.

“I’m just a passerby. Due to the nature of my occupation, I just can’t bear to see other people abusing their bodies.” After saying this, Lin Zisheng stuffed an umbrella in Wenren Lan’s hand, “There’s nothing that can’t be solved. Don’t look at everything so hopelessly.”

“I’m not…” Looking at this gentle man, Wenren Lan seemed to have an urge to talk.

Lin Zisheng shook his head, then stretched out his fingers to point to his eyes, “I can see from your eyes that you did not give up, otherwise I will not come to help you.” After saying this, Lin Zisheng lightly smile and ran to the car not far away. He nodded towards Wenren Lan after getting in the car and then drove away.

[Host-daren, can you really do it like this? Doing good thing without leaving a name?] Although this can give a good impression to the male lead, how can it be effective if he doesn’t even know host-daren’s name?

“We will meet sooner or later anyway, right?” If the story of this world does not OOC, he will meet the male lead soon.

To be honest, Lin Zisheng is a little curious. The main personality met a person who has enlightened him, while alter personality met a person who helped him when he is in trouble. Lin Zisheng wondered who is more important in Wenren Lan’s heart.

[Host, please stop your ill-intention thoughts. The alter male lead in this world has a violent tendency. You don’t want to game over in his hands, right?] Alter personality can even murder his beloved person (FL), so a psychiatrist is nothing at all.

“By the way, I forgot to ask you what kind of identity I have this time.” In the past, when Lin Zisheng receives the plot and character details of the world, he would be able to guess his identity but he couldn’t make a guess this time.

[Uh, due to the invisible double male lead, your status as the second male lead has been greatly weakened. You are now almost like a high-level cannon fodder.] When 001 said that, it stayed cautious, afraid of his family’s black belly host will be dissatisfied with it.

“Since I’m like a cannon fodder, can I not follow the plot?” The male and female lead is the pillar that supports the world, while the second male lead is just to assist. If his role right now is a cannon fodder, Lin Zisheng can actually go without following the plot.

[Theoretically, it is possible, but please don’t destroy the plot too much.] This world doesn’t really need Lin Zisheng, so there is no problem if he doesn’t follow the plot too much.

Lin Zisheng smiled when he heard 001’s words. But such a bright smile made 001 feel all its hackles are standing up. Host-daren looked so dangerous!

After reading the plot of this world, Lin Zisheng has a certain understanding of the female lead. Although it is stated that the female lead is a gentle and tolerant person, her gentleness and tolerance are not available to everyone. In the beginning, the female lead only went to help the male lead, and also be able to tolerate his abnormality because he looked like a rich man with a successful career.

[Host-daren, the female lead in this world does not love money that much.] 001 is still struggling to keep up with the image. It seems that not only its host-daren doesn’t want to continue with the plot, but he also wants to drag the female lead down and deviate from the plot!

“If you don’t love money, would you go to work in a place like a bar? Even when you are harassed, you never thought about changing the job?”

A place like a bar is indeed a mixture of ‘snakes and dragons’, but there are also many rich people. If one is lucky, they can receive a shocking amount of tip.

In an instant, 001 became speechless. Its host-daren is getting smarter and harder to fool. Heart felt so tired, _(:3」∠)

“Anyway, I can easily take the injured male lead home with me when I leave.” Lu Feng, the owner of this body, works as a psychologist. In fact, he has been involved in medical things, and his family background is also very good. Although he is not on the same level as the male lead’s wealth, he is also one of the best families in City B.

[Host-daren, have you made up your mind to grab the female lead’s role?]

“Didn’t you asked me to stop with the ill-intention thoughts? I listened to your words, so why are you so excited about this matter?” Lin Zisheng’s voice is leisurely, obviously not taking 001’s attitude as a thing.

001: Hehe, host-daren, no matter how straightforward you say it, it can’t change that you are a  black-bellied person!

Three days later, Lin Zisheng went to a bar near the place where the male lead got beaten and sat in a corner casually. He unbuttoned the top two of his shirt’s collar, revealing a small patch of his chest. Under the dim lighting, his fair skin looked more sens.u.al. His meticulous combed hair has been ruffled up by him, and the flat glasses that had been on his nose is also taken off by Lin Zisheng. Originally, with his appearance in a suit and leather shoes, he didn’t fit in here. But after a minute, he became abnormally consistent with the feeling of the bar, and the people around him are dumbfounded after seeing this ‘transformation’.

This… how does this man do it?

Lin Zisheng doesn’t like places like bars, but the owner of this body, Lu Feng often went to bars to reduce stress when he is studying abroad. Right now, Lin Zisheng is only imitating him as per his memory so people won’t think that he doesn’t fit it.

The female lead, Bai Qing, who is not far away also saw the transformation. From a glance, his clothes are obviously high-end custom-made clothes. She understood that this person’s status is definitely not low, and he should be a playful person. Such a person is a suitable goal for her. It’s just that her luck is not so good as the person designated to deliver wine to Lin Zisheng is not Bai Qing, but another person. That person is a newcomer, he seemed to be a college student. He has a beautiful face and gives people a feeling that he is shy when he smiled. That makes people unconsciously get a good impression of him.

[Host-daren, why didn’t the female lead recognize you?] Bai Qing has submitted a resume to Lin Zisheng’s private clinic. She should be able to recognize Lin Zisheng as her future boss.

“Female lead won’t pay attention to how a doctor looks like.” This sentence roughly translates to the female lead won’t bother with a poor doctor. It has to be some kind of big boss to get her attention!

001 became speechless in an instant.

Just like this, Lin Zisheng sat in the bar all night. Although he ordered a drink, he didn’t take a single sip. He didn’t want to drive home with the male lead while under influence (DUI) later. Looking at his watch and counting the time, Lin Zisheng can guess that the male lead should get beaten right now. Should he be the hero who saves the ‘beauty’? After another 10 minutes, Lin Zisheng tidied up his clothes and then walked out of the bar slowly.

At this moment, Bai Qing just got off work. Because of her desire to get acquainted with Lin Zisheng, she quietly followed up, wanting to see if she can somehow bump into Lin Zisheng as an accidental meeting. As a result, after a few minutes of walking, she heard the sound of fighting at the front. Bai Qing hesitated. If she went to help at this moment, would she be implicated?

Lin Zisheng had no such thoughts though. He quickly walked over and deliberately lowered his pitch before saying, “Who is there?! Police!”

Perhaps because of a guilty conscience, those people didn’t even look at Lin Zisheng. They just ran away upon hearing the yell. Anyway, their task is to teach that person a lesson. Now that person has been ‘taught’ quite miserably, their task is already done.

Lin Zisheng walked into the alley after those people left. Sure enough, he saw Wenren Lan who got beaten on the ground. This man’s expression is no longer at a loss like the last time they met. Instead, he looked like an angry beast, trying to tear anyone who hurt him to pieces. Seeing this kind of Wenren Lan, Lin Zisheng agrees with 001 that this person indeed has some violent tendencies.

“Can you still stand up?” Lin Zisheng smiled and stretched out his hand, looking at Wenren Lan who seemed unable to move.

After Wenren Lan heard this familiar voice, he slowly raised his head. Because the man’s back is facing the light, he could not see the man’s face clearly. But judging from his voice, this man should be a gentle person. At this moment, there should be a gentle smile on his face. Thinking of this, Wenren Lan unknowingly stretched out his hand and took the hand that is reaching to him…

After grabbing that hand, Wenren Lan didn’t want to let go. No one had ever reached out to him… to ‘them’ before. This person is the first in his life, so he doesn’t want to let go…

This is Wenren Lan’s last thought before fainting.

Seeing that Wenren Lan has fainted, Lin Zisheng pulled the person up and slung his arm on his shoulder. He looked at the person in amusement. The male lead is obviously a wild beast with raised hackles but he turned out to be like a well-behaved cat when he calmed down.

“Sir, you…” Seeing Lin Zisheng carrying a person out, and from that person’s clothing, he also seemed to be a rich man, Bai Qing formed a plan in her heart. The man in front of her seemed like he is not easy to get acquainted with. But injured people are different as they are more vulnerable. It may be a good opportunity for her so she said, “I am a graduate from a nursing school and know some nursing knowledge, so you can let me give this gentleman…”

“Thank you, but no need. I am a doctor myself.” Lin Zisheng smiled and refused the other party’s offer. How could Lin Zisheng not understand her thoughts? But he didn’t want to cooperate at all!

Seeing Lin Zisheng helping the man into his car and leaving, Bai Qing gritted her teeth and stared at the direction of his departure. It’s hard enough to meet two real rich people today, but letting them passed by like this, she is not reconciled!

…

When he got up early in the morning, Wenren Lan, no, it should be the alter personality, Wenren Ling, found that all the wounds on his body had stopped bleeding and were bandaged. It seems that the person from yesterday did these.

Right now, Wenren Ling is a little regretful. He knows who sent those people yesterday. If that person knows that he is rescued, then his benefactor will definitely be troubled. Thinking of that, Wenren Ling can’t sit still and struggled to get up. He needs to leave here quickly!

“Get up and eat something.” When Wenren Ling opened the door, he saw the man sitting on the sofa outside. His white casual clothes looked very refreshing and with a gentle smile on his face, it made Wenren Ling feel like his heart is warmed.

“No, I don’t need to eat. I’m leaving, thank you yesterday, I…” I can’t cause you more trouble.

Wenren Ling didn’t say this last part of the sentence. He doesn’t know why but he didn’t want him to know his terrible affairs, maybe… because he didn’t want to lose this rare tenderness.

“If you are worried that those who beat you will come to trouble me, don’t worry. This is Haicheng Villa area, and they don’t have the ability to come in.” Who are those people yesterday? With 001, Lin Zisheng can know right away. They are just some small-time gangsters, so he doesn’t have to be afraid.

Hearing Lin Zisheng’s words, Wenren Ling revealed a surprised look. Only then did he realize that he had ignored where he is at the moment. Looking around, Wenren Ling found that the man did not lie. He is indeed in the Haicheng Villa area, and he felt relieved. When he looked at Lin Zisheng again, he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity.

“This mister, have we… have we met before?” After saying this, Wenren Ling got taken aback and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. These words sound like a kind of accost.

“We met on a rainy day 3 days ago. You looked so much better now than then.” Lin Zisheng looked at Wenren Lan as if thinking of something, then he smiled softly. “I looked at you and thought that you wanted to commit suicide, but now I am relieved to see you so energetic.”

After a reminder from Lin Zisheng, Wenren Ling finally remembered when they met with some regrets in his heart. It turned out that he is not the first one to be helped by him. What a pity… At this moment, he is a little envious of the main personality.

“Thank you for that day,” Wenren Ling tried to imitate Wenren Lan’s appearance, and smiled at Lin Zisheng, “Hello, I am Wenren… Wenren Ling.”

Originally, he wanted to say the name of the main personality, but Wenren Ling changed his words right before it’s out. He hoped that he is the first one to get acquainted with this man.

“Hello, my name is Lu Feng.” Lin Zisheng pushed a set of breakfast to the front and said, “Sit down and eat something. Although I have applied medicine to your wounds, you still suffered some blood loss. So, you should eat something to replenish your stamina.”

“Thank you,” Wenren Ling stop being polite. He picked up the breakfast prepared by Lin Zisheng and took a bite. His eyes lit up, “You made it? It’s delicious.”

Wenren Ling’s words are not blind flattery. Lin Zisheng’s cooking is really good, and the food he made is in line with his taste.

“Really? Then eat more and you are welcome.” Lin Zisheng smiled and narrowed his eyes when he heard the compliment.

“That, Mr. Lu, are you… a doctor?” Thinking of the neatly bandaged wounds on his body, Wenren Ling is a little curious about his profession.

Lin Zisheng got stunned for a moment before chuckling lightly, “En, I can be considered a doctor. But strictly speaking, I should be called a psychiatrist. However, because of my personal hobbies, I dabbled a bit in medicine.”

A psychiatrist?

Thinking of what his father said before, Wenren Ling suddenly felt that if the psychiatrist is this person, he might not feel so repulsive with the idea. Perhaps Lan also won’t object.

And so, both men ate their breakfast quietly while thinking of something. After eating breakfast, Wenren Ling politely said goodbye to Lin Zisheng, “Thank you for your hospitality, I will go home to settle my personal affairs first. I look forward to seeing you next time.”

After Wenren Ling left, Lin Zisheng suddenly smiled, “This person is somewhat different from what was mentioned in his profile.”

Banana: A’ight, this chapter has 9k word count so it will be split into 3 parts ya.

In the end, Lin Zisheng accepted Zhang Daoling’s feelings. The two spent their whole life together seriously.

After accepting Zhang Daoling, Lin Zisheng found that having another person in his life is not as unacceptable as he thought. At least when he is happy or sad, there is always someone by his side. Lin Zisheng has never been a sentimental person, but he is still human so he knows what tiredness is. For so many years, as a ghost, he can’t appear in front of anyone, so all the pressure is left for Zhang Daoling to bear alone, and he never said that he is tired. Even when the people from Mount Longhu found Zhang Daoling and asked him to return to the mountain so he could marry a wife and have children to continue his bloodline, Zhang Daoling still refuse because he already had a unique person in his heart. Zhang Daoling wanted to be responsible for himself and the person he loves. Lin Zisheng knew all of these, but he can’t help Zhang Daoling. He could only accompany Zhang Daoling to persevere and even watched him turn against Mount Longhu because of him.

“Ah Xuan, in this life, the only thing I have never regretted is knowing you.” These are the last words Zhang Daoling said before he passed away.

[Host-daren, the task is completed, shall we go back?]

Looking at Lin Zisheng who is still floating next to Zhang Daoling, 001 is a little worried. Its host is a cold person, but not ruthless. 001 also saw what Zhang Daoling has done for its host for so many years, so, understandably, its host is reluctant to leave.

“Return ba.” Lin Zisheng sighed slightly. Looking at the man on the bed, Lin Zisheng didn’t know what is his feeling now.

Although Zhang Daoling had a head full of gray hair, perhaps because he practices Taoism, his appearance is not much different from when he first saw him.

[Host…] 001 wanted to say something, but looking at Lin Zisheng’s calm face, it didn’t know what to say for a while.

“Return!” Looking at another person lying silent on the bed, Lin Zisheng slowly closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he has returned to the white space.

[Host-daren, are you okay? Do you want to rest for a while before starting the new task?]

Although the sooner the task is performed, the better for them, 001 also understands that host’s mood is not so stable now. If they rushed the tasks, it will only make its host lose control.

“It’s fine, this matter is not enough to shake me.” After saying this, Lin Zisheng squinted his eyes and leaned on the recliner, refusing to talk anymore. So, 001 quietly shut its mouth.

[System scanning, the last world mission is being summarized…]

[Scanning results, the total number of missions in the world  is 5, including 1 main mission, 3 side missions, and 1 adventure mission, with a completion rate of 120%.]

“120%? 001, is there an error in the system?” This result surprised Lin Zisheng. Isn’t 120% completion rate sound a bit abnormal?

[To answer host’s question, the summary is given by the main system so there won’t be any possibility of error.]

[The following Missions are completed:
Main mission – receive 300 EXP, 800 points;
Side mission 1 – receive EXP 100, points 300,
Side mission 2 – receive EXP 100, points 300,
Side mission 3 – receive EXP 300, points 800,
Adventure mission EXP ? , Points 5000,
Special rewards: attribute points 10, you can draw twice in the points lottery.

Among them, side mission 2 and 3 reached completion at 120%, adventure mission reached completion at 150% so your EXP and points rewards are doubled. At the same time, the enhancement system is activated. Does the host accept all mission rewards?]

“Yes.” Hearing the task reward, Lin Zisheng knew that the gain this time os definitely much greater than last time.

[For points lottery, does host want to use your 2 lucky draw opportunities now?] 001 blinked its small eyes, almost blurted ‘draw, draw, draw’. There will definitely be something good from the lottery.

“No.” Lin Zisheng refused without hesitation because he saw another button next to the draw button that says – 10 consecutive draws. Also, there is a note beside it saying, [10 consecutive draws will guarantee an orange-type item. Dear, aren’t you going to try it?].

[Ah, all right then.] After hearing Lin Zisheng’s refusal, 001 feels a bit regretful, because there are really many, many, many good things in the points lottery!

“By the way, 001, why is the EXP reward for the adventure task showed a question mark?” It is the first time Lin Zisheng saw a question mark in the reward list.

[That, ah, that is completely up to your luck. If you have good luck, you might get up to thousands. But if you are unlucky, you might even get only a point, it’s entirely a matter of your character (luck) yo~]

Lin Zisheng: Haha, what a pit!

[Calculation completed. The total of all missions is EXP 800 + 1500 (adventure task), points 8200. Attribute points 10, you can draw twice in the points lottery. (Banana – The attribute point and draws are just repeated announcements, LZS didn’t get it twice, just FYI)]

After announcing the total calculation, 001 is stunned. Its host’s luck is really too OP. Although there are people getting thousands of EXP in the adventure task, most of them are at intermediate or even advanced adventure tasks. Right now, its host-daren got it in the elementary level adventure task.

[You now have 10 attribute points, do you choose to allocate it now?]

“Yes.” Just 10 attribute points can make his overall attributes have a considerable improvement.

“Physique +2, Physical fitness +2, Intelligence +3, Luck +3.” Looking at his attribute column, Lin Zisheng made a decision.

[The distribution of attribute points is completed, the current attribute is changed]
[Physique: 10 + 3 (Mission reward) + 2 (novice gift pack)]
[Physical Fitness: 10 + 7 (Mission reward)]
[Intelligence: 10 + 2 (novice gift pack) + 3 (Mission reward)]
[Luck: 10 + 1 (novice gift pack) + 3 (Mission reward)]

[The system detects that the host’s current EXP is 2730 points and has reached the threshold for an upgrade. Does the host choose to upgrade?]

“Yes.” Although Lin Zisheng didn’t know the specific benefits of leveling up, it would definitely bring him a lot of benefits.

[Host, please wait a moment. This system will make a final summary.]

[Host Information]　　
[Name: Lin Zisheng]
[Gender: Male]
[Age: 23]
[Attribute point: 0]
[Current level: Level E]
[Current experience: 1230/5000]
[Current Points: 9120]
[Currently acquired skills: Kickboxing, shooting, close combat, interrogation, bloodline suppression]

[Physique: 10 + 3 (Mission reward) + 2 (novice gift pack)]
[Physical Fitness: 10 + 7 (Mission reward)]
[Intelligence: 10 + 2 (novice gift pack) + 3 (Mission reward)]
[Spiritual power: 10]
[Mind: 10 + 5 (Mission reward)]
[Power: 10]
[Agility: 10]
[Charm: 10]
[Luck: 10 + 1 (novice gift pack) + 3 (Mission reward)]

[Summary is completed, does the host want to accept the data of the next world?] Speaking of this, 001 paused for a while, and then with a cautious tone, it asked [Host-daren, you… do you want to rest for a while? We are not in a hurry.]

Lin Zisheng smiled and gently shook his head. He knew what 001 is worried about, but instead of staying in the white space, he might as well do something to keep himself busy.

Seeing that Lin Zisheng had decided, 001 helplessly transferred the information of the next world to Lin Zisheng.

The next world is an easy world too. This world tells a love story between a patient with split personality disorder and a gentle and kind girl. The story is not a glamorous one, but emitted warmth everywhere. The male lead is a successful person. Perhaps caused by the divorce of his parents and the abuse of his stepmother when he was young, the young male lead suffered serious mental trauma. In order to protect himself, another personality is born. As he grows up, both the main personality and alter personality knew about each other’s existence and were able to co-exist in peace. However, when the male lead’s father knew about the disorder, he forcibly made the male lead see a psychiatrist he found for him.

The female lead is working as the receptionist in this private psychology clinic. The two met and gradually became acquainted with each other. The main personality is gentle while the alter personality is irritable. Although the two are completely opposite, they didn’t make any difference in the female lead’s heart. She doesn’t think that the male lead has mental problems. In this way, under the comfort of the female lead, the male lead’s split personality disorder is no longer serious, and he is no different from normal people. Because he spent a long time with the female lead, the male lead fell in love with this gentle girl.

“If this progress continues, this should be a story similar to the Prince and Cinderella falling in love and go happily ever after. What’s there to be changed?” Lin Zisheng looked at the plot and suddenly felt a little boring, this world is not challenging at all.

[No, host-daren. You only say this because you didn’t see the end.] 001’s cat face looked very distorted when it said this. [The ending of this world is when the female lead finally discovered that she loved the main personality more than the alter. After the alter personality found out, he appeared in front of the female lead and killed her. He cut her body apart and proceed to commit suicide, plunging into hell with the main personality.]

Lin Zisheng: Hehe, such a dog blood story!

Lin Zisheng imagined countless possibilities, but he had never thought about a plot like this. This female lead deserves to be a white lotus, and she is also very good at seeking death. An obvious happy world with Happy Ending (HE) can be played until it turned Bad Ending (BE) by her. This is also some ability.

“What’s the mission in this world?” Lin Zisheng rubbed his eyebrows, he had a bad feeling about this. Sure enough, when 001 announced the missions, Lin Zisheng’s expression changed.

[Main mission: Rescue the female lead and help her escape the fate of being dismembered. Reward : EXP 500 & 1,000 Points. Failure will deduct 1,000 Points.]

[Main mission 1: Let the female lead fall in love with you, and then abandon the female lead. Mission reward: EXP 300 & 600 points. No penalty for failure.]

“Wait, what kind of task is this?” Looking at this task, Lin Zisheng felt that the black line on his head [=_=||] was falling down, “Make the female lead fall in love with me and then abandon her? What task is this, 001? Your white lotus rescue system has finally changed genre to nurturing scums system?”

[This… I also don’t know, this task was issued by the main system. I don’t know the specifics.] Seriously, when 001 saw this task, its face also has black lines on it. What is this?

“Is the system trying to force the female lead to blacken and kill me afterward?” Lin Zisheng raised his eyebrows. He glanced up and down at 001 as if he wanted to see what the main system meant through it.

[Host, please rest assured, there will never be that kind of thing happening!] 001’s tone is very confirmed. Although it is not clear why the main system released this task, 001 can affirm that this is definitely for the sake of host-daren.

“Forget it, let’s continue to announce the other missions.” Since Lin Zisheng doesn’t understand it, he’ll just ignore it for now. So far, neither 001 nor the main system has done anything to harm him. This time he’ll reluctantly believe the main system for the time being and think of it as doing this for his own good.

[Main mission 2: Help the male lead to cure his split personality, and get recognition from both personalities. Mission reward: EXP 300 & 600 points. No penalty for failure.]

[Random mission: Obtain feelings from the alter personality. Mission reward: For each kind of feeling you obtained, you can get some character enhancement points, skill points, or equipment enhancement stone.]

Upon hearing the final mission, Lin Zisheng had a question, “What is this character enhancement point, skill point, or equipment enhancement stone?”

[Character enhancement points are used to strengthen the overall attributes of your character. Skill points are used to improve the level of your skills. As for equipment enhancement stones, they are used to improve the quality of your equipment.]

Sensing that Lin Zisheng may not understand its explanation, 001 further explained. [I won’t talk about the character enhancement points. I think you should understand that as well as skill points and level. They are very easy to understand. I will explain the equipment enhancement instead. It is mainly to improve the level of special weapons you obtained in some worlds, such as treasure equipment in the fantasy/xuanhuan world, or wands/staffs/swords in the magic world.]

Hearing that, Lin Zisheng has some understanding in his heart. He nodded, “Let’s go then, to the next world.”

[Alright, going to the 3rd world . Host-daren, please prepare for transmission, 3, 2, 1——]

After 001 finished the countdown, Lin Zisheng disappeared from this white space and went to another world…

10 years is not long, but it’s not short either. If you ask Zhang Daoling what is the deepest impression he had in these 10 years, he will definitely answer that as a Heavenly Master (exorcist), he has fallen in love with a ghost. Moreover, he is an antique-level (super old) ghost. To add to it, the thing that broke him is the ghost is a male.

10 years is enough time for a person to recognize his feelings. Zhang Daoling has changed from the indifferent youth with a poisonous tongue to a mature man, and his whole demeanor has become calm and restrained. This kind of Zhang Daoling attracted more attention from other people. Regrettably, the person he wanted to attract the most is always half-ignoring him.

_ (:3」∠) Heart felt depressed.

After returning home, Zhang Daoling suddenly felt even more depressed when he saw a room of ghosts having a party. By now, he is regretting his decision to let Lin Zisheng come into contact with so much modern knowledge. Recalling the day they first met, Lin Zisheng at that time looked so ignorant and easy to fool. It’s a pity that Zhang Daoling didn’t realize his feeling during that time. When he finally did, Lin Zisheng had become way smarter. No point trying to lie to him as it would be seen through the next minute!

_ (:3」∠) Heart so tired, I can’t feel the love any more.

001: Easy to fool? Male lead daren, you think too much, the so-called silly and naive person has never been his host-daren.

“Ah Ling, you are back?” Feeling that his ‘playmates’ suddenly become agitated, Lin Zisheng turned his head at the door, and he saw Zhang Daoling walking in slowly. It is obvious that his whole body is shrouded in a black aura which makes his ‘playmates; shivering in fear, “Is the job not going well?”

No, it’s my relationship not going well.

Zhang Daoling shook his head and sat weakly on the sofa. He didn’t look like he is okay at all. His depressed appearance is like a big dog that got abandoned by its owner.

“No, I’m just a little tired.” After saying this, although Zhang Daoling’s face is still expressionless, his eyes looked faintly pitiful. However, at the next moment when his gaze fell on the other ‘person’, it became intense.

Although Zhang Daoling’s gaze is quite hidden, Lin Zisheng still managed to find out, which made him feel amused. It is obvious that Zhang Daoling had become a lot more mature over the years, but on the inside, he became more naive instead.

[Ain’t it because of you, host-daren? Don’t tell me that you don’t know about the male lead’s intention at all.] At the beginning of these years, Zhang Daoling’s pursuit was very vague, but recently it has become more obvious, but its host-daren just pretended not to know anything.

“What does this have anything to do with me? He is the one who didn’t say it clearly.” Actually, Lin Zisheng didn’t want to bully Zhang Daoling much. He simply didn’t respond to those too vague hints and acted like he didn’t know. Watching Zhang Daoling getting agitated by himself, Lin Zisheng doesn’t think it’s his fault.

[…Hehe, indeed.] Now 001 is a little sympathetic to the male lead. Its host-daren is getting more black-bellied. Male lead, can you still hold on?

“What’s the matter?” Looking at Zhang Daoling’s pitiful look, Lin Zisheng floated to his side and reached out to press lightly on his temple.

As a ghost, Lin Zisheng’s body temperature has always been cold. At this moment, Zhang Daoling feels comfortable and wants to sigh when Lin Zisheng presses on his head. Lin Zisheng’s thoughtfulness always gave Zhang Daoling the impression that Lin Zisheng knew about his intention. But every time he looks at Lin Zisheng’s clear and ignorant eyes, Zhang Daoling will think that his mind must have been flooded with water to have that thought.

001: Male lead, please don’t doubt your feelings. In fact, host-daren knows everything.

“No, it’s nothing.” Pulling down the hand that had been massaging his temple, Zhang Daoling dropped a gentle kiss on it. Then he raised his head and looked at Lin Zisheng hopefully, only to see a pair of clear eyes. In an instant, Zhang Daoling didn’t want to say anything, his heart felt so tired. _ (:3」∠)

The ghosts who have been watching this scene can’t help but want to sigh in exasperation. Can someone with such a low IQ be a Heavenly Master? The other party clearly knows his intention and is teasing him every day to see when he will confess. As a result, Zhang Daoling silly-ly continued with the one-sided love script until now.

The Lin Zisheng right now has successfully leveled up to become the ghost king due to his bloodline. It stands to reason that he should go to the ghost realm to rule as king. Hence, isn’t it obvious that he is staying behind for Zhang Daoling?

Looking at these two people, a group of single ghosts feels that they have been strongly attacked. It’s better to leave quickly. This shiny light coming from them is no different from sunlight. The lovey-doveyness might start burning them into ashes if it continues.

“Ah Xuan, you won’t go to work with me anymore.” In the past, Lin Zisheng would be by his side no matter where he went, but recently he always gets together with those lonely souls. Is Ah Xuan tired of being with him?

“Your job is to catch ghosts. If I follow, I should help you with the capture, or let you catch me?” Although Lin Zisheng is teasing Zhang Daoling and did not respond to his initial question, in his heart, he always knew his answer.

What Zhang Daoling has done for him in the past 10 years, Lin Zisheng can see it. The saying that humans and ghosts have different paths is no joke. There are only 3 opportunities for humans and ghosts to touch each other in a year, on Qingming Festival, Zhongyuan Festival, and the day that person died. At first, the two didn’t care if they could touch each other, but gradually Zhang Daoling couldn’t be satisfied by this kind of rare contact. Hence, to get close to Lin Zisheng, Zhang Daoling ground the ghost jade into powder and ate it.

Ghost jade is a sacred object from the ghost realm. For ghosts, ghost jade is a good thing to nourish their spirit and it is of no use to living people. However, being useless does not mean that it will be harmless. People who have been in contact with the ghost jade for a long time will develop a faint ghostly aura around them, let alone eating it. If it weren’t for Zhang Daoling’s identity as a Heavenly Master, he might have already become half-human and half-ghost now. It’s impossible to say that Lin Zisheng is not moved by the action, but Zhang Daoling didn’t say anything else so Lin Zisheng could only pretend that he didn’t know anything. He is waiting, waiting for the day when Zhang Daoling finally is willing to speak his mind.

“I want you to accompany me.” This is the most straightforward thing Zhang Daoling can say, but right now, the two people’s thoughts are not on the same channel. For Zhang Daoling’s seemingly confession-like words, Lin Zisheng just smiled and ignored it. The depressed Zhang Daoling didn’t know what to say for a while. Fortunately, someone called his phone at this time to ease his embarrassment. Zhang Daoling almost turned and ran as if he had received an amnesty.

Lin Zisheng felt a bit amused looking at Zhang Daoling acting like that.

…

At the bar, deep in the night.

After Zhang Daoling came to the bar, he saw a man getting dazed from drinking too much. Needless to say, he knew that this man is dumped again.

“What’s wrong? You called me out so late at night.” Zhang Daoling sat next to the man and ordered a glass of juice. He is driving so he didn’t want to drive back under influence later.

“Zhang Daoling, do you have a conscience? Buddy, I just got dumped and you came here shrouded in happiness.” The man patted Zhang Daoling’s shoulder, with a bit of teasing in his tone. Obviously, these two have a good friendship.

After Zhang Daoling heard what he said, his face turned gloomy for a moment. The man naturally saw it and he involuntarily sighed. Right now, he really felt that they are buddies indeed.

“Still haven’t gotten the one in your house yet?”

For anyone who knows Zhang Daoling well, they will know about his 10-year long run of love. Back then, someone laughed and joked about how he as a Heavenly Master fell in love with a male ghost. But later, anyone who saw Zhang Daoling couldn’t help but want to sigh. Not everyone can have 10 years of perseverance.

“En,” Zhang Daoling’s tone sounded weak, “he still doesn’t understand my thoughts, and now I don’t know what to do…”

Of course, Zhang Daoling didn’t think that he couldn’t keep going. He already persisted for 10 years. He didn’t care to wait for another 20 or 30 years. It’s just that Lin Zisheng has always been so ignorant of his feelings and it made him feel despair.

“Wait, don’t tell me that you have been in a one-sided love for 10 years, and you have not confessed even once?!” Hearing what Zhang Daoling said, the man is shocked. It’s fine that he has been chasing his love for 10 years but what the hell is this one-sided love?!

“I have always hinted at him.” Zhang Daoling felt that what he did is already very obvious. It’s a pity that Ah Xuan didn’t seem to understand at all.

“Hehe, hinting? Farts!” Right now, the man really wants to slap Zhang Daoling to make him sober, “Your love is not a woman. If you do this to a woman, they might think more of it. To get friendly with a man, heh, that is called being buddies!” It is said that a person in love has no IQ, but if that has no EQ as well, it is simply a natural disaster!

Hearing what the man said, Zhang Daoling’s expression became a little ugly, “Then what should I do?”

At the same time, Zhang Daoling’s heart suddenly surged with hope. Perhaps, he will finally get a result after today, whether it is good or bad.

“Are you really stupid or something? Of course you have to go straight up to confess, no matter if he can accept you now or not. At the very least, you have to let him know what is in your heart, that he is not just a friend, but a lover for life.”

These words caused Zhang Daoling to stiffen, and then he nodded. Since Ah Xuan can accompany him for 10 years, he should be able to accompany him for the rest of his life. In that case, what else is he afraid of?

After thanking the man, Zhang Daoling almost rushed back like he is driving a racing car. When he opened the door, he saw Lin Zisheng standing alone by the window, basking in the moonlight. For a moment, Zhang Daoling’s heart that was beating wildly started to quiet down.

“Ah Xuan, I’m back.” Looking at Lin Zisheng with a fixed gaze, Zhang Daoling’s always calm gaze carried a trace of greed. He wanted this person and wanted to keep him by his side forever, “I want to tell you something, can you listen to me?”

Feeling Zhang Daoling holding himself in his arms, Lin Zisheng didn’t even notice that the corners of his mouth have curved up slightly.

“Ah Xuan, I like you, so please stay with me forever, okay?”

Banana: Alright, this is the end of Arc 2. The next arc has 9k word count as its 1st chapter lol _(;3/ gotta split that

“You are… You are Zhang Daoling!”

At this moment, Ghost Elder finally realized who is this person in front of him, and understood the feeling of fear. This person… is Zhang Daoling, the one who once sealed him and almost destroyed his soul!

In fact, the hatred between Ghost Elder and Mount Longhu was caused by Zhang Daoling. Back then, Ghost Elder is already a king in his territory, but when he is at the peak of his time, he suffered his first miserable defeat, even almost got his soul destroyed by Zhang Daoling. After that, his strength fell again and again. If it’s not for many years of cultivation, Ghost Elder is afraid that he would not be able to rise again. What he didn’t expect is just when he is about to grow stronger once more, this damned person appeared again!

“Didn’t you already know my name right from the start?” Seeing Ghost Elder glaring at him with hostility and murderous intent, Zhang Daoling felt puzzled in his heart.

Didn’t this ghost know who he is from the beginning? Zhang Daoling didn’t forget what Ghost Elder blurted out when they first met – he said ‘Zhang Daoling’s golden coin sword’. Since Ghost Elder knew, why is he so surprised now?

Indeed, Ghost Elder knew about Zhang Daoling’s name from Bai Manman’s mouth. Just that, his knowledge of this Zhang Daoling is limited to his name and his identity as the junior of Mount Longhu. How could Ghost Elder figure that this person is from the direct bloodline of that Zhang Daoling, or even the reincarnation of that person himself?

“Time is limited, don’t continue talking nonsense with him.”

Lin Zisheng looked at Ghost Elder who had a shocked expression. He didn’t know why Ghost Elder behaved like this right now, but he didn’t have time to think about that. He was not an alarmist but they only have 1 hour. After that, Lin Zisheng might be able to still control the demon binding array a little bit, but he won’t win if Ghost Elder fought him for the control.

Zhang Daoling looked back at Lin Zisheng’s rapidly pale face and immediately understood their current situation. No matter what, all he had to do was to get rid of Ghost Elder as soon as possible.

Obviously, not only Zhang Daoling felt Lin Zisheng’s struggle, Ghost Elder felt it as well. Glaring at Lin Zisheng with strong killing intent, Ghost Elder knew that the reason why he has fallen into this situation is completely because of this person. As long as he can swallow him (LZS), he won’t have to be afraid of the other person, even if this young man is really that Zhang Daoling!

It’s just that while the idea is good, but it is too difficult to implement because Ghost Elder found that Lin Zisheng seemed to have a kind of air current protecting around him, and his attacks had no effect on Lin Zisheng at all.

“As long as I can control the array, no one can attack me. Similarly, there is no way to leave here either.” Lin Zisheng smiled. Though his face getting paler and paler, there is strong confidence in his smile. His self-confidence came not only from his self-confidence but also his trust in Zhang Daoling. Lin Zisheng believed that Zhang Daoling can finish the enemy within an hour!

After Zhang Daoling heard what Lin Zisheng said, Zhang Daoling swiped his finger at the golden coin sword, and a smear of blood appeared on the surface. Using blood as a sacrifice to the sword, Zhang Daoling is getting serious now.

When Ghost Elder saw this, he can’t help feeling the hatred in his heart. This is the same as last time. In order to get rid of him, Zhang Daoling used his blood as an offering to the sword and almost destroyed his soul. Fortunately, Ghost Elder is clever enough and managed to escape, though with serious injuries. And now, this Zhang Daoling wanted to do it again?!

“Zhang Daoling, your luck in this lifetime is not as good as your last life!” Now that he has the girl with Heavenly yin, how could Ghost Elder be defeated like in his last life?!

Lin Zisheng instantly understood what Ghost Elder meant, and swiftly stood in front of Bai Manman to block Ghost Elder’s attack, while enduring the pressure.

[Host-daren, if you save Bai Manman like this, her fate will be the same as what we saw in the plot. Then, your mission will fail!] 001 screamed after seeing Lin Zisheng’s reaction. What happened to host-daren, he actually gives himself up to save the female lead?!

Lin Zisheng didn’t answer 001’s words, but remained standing in front of Bai Manman with a smile on his face. Golden light appeared on his palms, blocking Ghost Elder’s attack.

The current Lin Zisheng is different from the original Ying Qingxuan. Ying Qingxuan has already given up most of his vitality, so he can’t activate his bloodline at all. That’s why he will be defeated by Ghost Elder in the plot but Lin Zisheng’s strength is different from Ying Qingxuan’s. 001 also realized the difference, and can’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.

But Zhang Daoling didn’t know this at all. When he saw Lin Zisheng blocking in front of Bai Manman, he thought his heartbeat almost stopped. There is also a faint sour-ish pang in his heart. She is just a traitor, why Qingxuan protected her with so much effort?!

After a moment’s stupefaction, Zhang Daoling sensitively discovered that Lin Zisheng’s face has become paler! At this moment, Zhang Daoling’s actions acted faster than his mind. He rushed towards Lin Zisheng and dragged him out of the scope of the fight. As for Bai Manman, heh, she is just a bad person. How’s that matter to him?

“Are you crazy? Do you know that if you continue to block the attack, it will consume your lifespan?!” Although ghosts are not living creatures, they also have lifespans. If they exerted too much power of their lifespan, their soul will disappear.

“Can’t… cough cough… can’t let him get the Heavenly yin girl. Otherwise… otherwise we won’t stand a chance against him…” Lin Zisheng’s voice became much weaker, and he looked at Bai Manman worriedly. Of course, he is not worried about Bai Manman, but Ghost Elder increasing his power after swallowing her.

“So what if he really swallowed Bai Manman? He still doesn’t stand any chance of winning.” Seeing that Lin Zisheng still cared about Bai Manman, Zhang Daoling really wanted to wake him up, “Using so much to protect a traitor, is your life that worthless?!”

Zhang Daoling’s words deeply agitated Bai Manman. To hear the person she admired and loved the most saying such words, Bai Manman felt like something has broken into pieces inside…

“See, they won’t save you, they don’t care about your life or death at all,” Ghost Elder watched this scene with mockery. His eyes are full of disdain as he said, “So what if you like that person? Yes, he will never put you in his eyes.”

Right now, Bai Manman looked like a doll that has lost its soul, leaving only an empty shell.

“So, give me your body ba. I will avenge you.” Ghost Elder’s voice is full of enticement, and he looked at Bai Manman with deep eagerness in his eyes.

As long as he can swallow this girl, he will be able to gain immense power. At that time, he is no longer a ghost, but a human being. What can Zhang Daoling as a Heavenly Master do then?

“Ah Ling, stop him!” Seeing Bai Manman’s eyes become more and more unfocused, Lin Zisheng knew that Ghost Elder is about to succeed. If so, this array won’t have any effect anymore.

“It’s okay.” Zhang Daoling shook his head slightly. He turned to look at Ghost Elder with sarcasm in his eyes as if he is looking at someone who is trying to kill himself.

At this moment, Lin Zisheng doesn’t know if it is an illusion or something else. He felt a familiar feeling from this person as if he had known this person before.

Ghost Elder laughed when he heard Zhang Daoling’s words. Originally he thought that this Zhang Daoling is the person he used to know, but now it seems that he is just someone with the same name. How could that Zhang Daoling do such a stupid thing? For Ghost Elder, everything went very smoothly, except that when he is about to completely swallow Bai Manman, she awoke in the middle. However, this is not a problem at all for the Ghost Elder. With a few moves, he tore apart the soul of Bai Manman who started struggling and swallowed her.

Looking down at his brand new body, Ghost Elder has a triumphant smile on his face. Hehe, he has finally become a human. No, not just a human, but also someone who has a lot of ghostly energy on his body. If he cultivates a bit more, sooner or later, he will be able to reign over 3 realms at will! Thinking of this, Ghost Elder turned his greedy gaze on Lin Zisheng again. Zhang Daoling is no longer attractive to him. The rich smell of true dragon blood on Lin Zisheng made him felt eager instead. Originally, Ghost Elder thought Lin Zisheng had no power and possessed just a little bit of true dragon’s blood. But after obtaining the power of the girl with Heavenly yin, he understood that he had misunderstood from the beginning. Lin Zisheng is not an offspring from a human with a descendant of a race containing true dragon’s blood, but he himself is a real horned dragon – the race closest to a true dragon!

“It should be over soon.” Noticing Ghost Elder’s greedy eyes, Zhang Daoling suddenly felt displeased. In his heart, he thought that this ‘person’ should just disappear as soon as possible!

“Over?” As if he heard something funny, Ghost Elder laughed out loud and looked at Zhang Daoling, “Yes, it is indeed going to be over, but the last person standing is not you!”

Only after Ghost Elder finished saying this, he felt something is wrong. He felt a tingling sensation on his body as if countless ants are burrowing under the skin. The excruciating pain caused his face to change to a painful expression, “What’s going on?!”

Of course, this is not the end, but the beginning. Slowly, large purplish-red spots appeared on his body. This is…

“This is corpse spots (Livor mortis), I think you should know it.” Zhang Daoling’s tone is still so indifferent, but with an infuriating tone.

“Impossible, why are corpse spots appearing?!” At this moment, Ghost Elder found that he didn’t know what is wrong with the body; it is decaying rapidly. What’s more frightening is he discovered that his soul is following the body’s deterioration and became increasingly weaker.

“Because Bai Manman is already dead from the beginning. In fact, when she first got attacked by a ghost, she had already died under the claws of the ghost, and even her soul was mostly swallowed up,” Zhang Daoling smiled as he looked at Ghost Elder like he is looking at some joke, “She is just a remnant soul I made to stay behind with a forbidden technique.”

Not needing any explanation, Ghost Elder can understand what’s going on. It happened due to his negligence. When he saw the girl with Heavenly yin, he already sensed that something is wrong with her, but he was fascinated by her power so he dismissed the feeling. It’s too late to regret it now…

Watching as the ‘person’ decays with the body, Zhang Daoling’s face has a pity expression, “Everything is over…”

At this point, whether it is Lin Zisheng or Zhang Daoling, they have already understood what happened. No, maybe it should be said that ‘the other half of the shoes have finally fallen to the ground’, giving them the feeling that everything is as per expected. Although they have been telling themselves that Bai Manman is afraid of ghosts and will not have anything to do with Ghost Elder, in fact, they both guessed that Bai Manman might have done this. No, it should be said that Lin Zisheng and Zhang Daoling have decided that Bai Manman is the one who did it.

“Qingxuan, I’m sorry. I know I shouldn’t do this, but I just want to protect what I want, I’m sorry.” Bai Manman looked at Lin Zisheng with a pale face. She knew that what she did is indeed deplorable. But she can’t bear to watch Zhang Daoling getting into an accident.

“It’s okay, I can understand.” Lin Zisheng looked at Bai Manman softly. There isn’t a shred of anger on his face but a peaceful smile.

“Are you really not blaming me?” Looking at Lin Zisheng, who seemed to be not angry, Bai Manman’s tears fell and she asked, “Qingxuan, you have forgiven me, right?”

Lin Zisheng nodded. He still had a gentle smile on his face to tell the other party that he did not blame her at all, “Yes, I forgive you.” Because selfishness is human nature. Acting on your own selfish desire which hurts others, isn’t that what humans do most often?

Hearing what Lin Zisheng said, Bai Manman hugged her body and began to cry, her whole body felt limp. Although she forced herself to do such a thing, how could there be no guilt in her heart? And now, she heard that Lin Zisheng is not blaming her, that’s good. Bai Manman sat on the ground trembling for a long time before gaining a little strength. Then, she slowly stood up and looked at Ghost Elder beside her, “I have done my part, why don’t you let Daoling go?”

Seeing Zhang Daoling is still standing in the formation, Bai Manman only felt heartache. Although the formation is aimed at Lin Zisheng, it didn’t mean that Zhang Daoling is not affected, at least being in the formation won’t feel any comfortable at all.

“Let go? When did this Elder say to let him go?” After hearing Bai Manman’s words, Ghost Elder looked at her funnily with a smile in his tone, as if he had heard some funny joke. He continued, “Zhang Daoling is a Heavenly Master (exorcist), the enemy of this Elder. You ask me to let him go? Right, I’ll let him go so he can come after this Elder later on?”

Right from the beginning, Ghost Elder has never thought about letting Zhang Daoling go, but he didn’t expect the other party (ZDL) to be so stupid. His prey actually sent himself to the door. Originally, Ghost Elder only wanted to catch one (LZS), but the other party had to offer him a buy 1 get 1 free. Why wouldn’t he accept it?

“You! You went back on your words!” At this point, how could Bai Manman not understand that she has been used by Ghost Elder? Originally, she thought that as long as Lin Zisheng is captured, she and Daoling would be able to live happily. But now, she simply ‘helped other people to make their wedding dress’ (English equivalent – cat’s paw)!

“Ghost talk, ghost talk…” Lin Zisheng looked at the two who had made a deal and raised his eyebrows slightly, there is a slight sarcasm in his clear eyes. The sarcasm is not strong, but because of his clear eyes, people can’t help but feel ashamed, “How can you believe the ghost’s words?”

Isn’t the saying ‘try to steal a chicken only to end up losing the rice; go for wool and come back shorn’ practically talk about Bai Manman’s situation right now? She originally thought that as long as she did according to the transaction, she would be able to stay with Zhang Daoling for a lifetime. But now, the fact is she can’t get anything out of it and end with Zhang Daoling hating her. Because in his eyes, she is a traitor.

“What you said is not wrong,” Ghost Elder did not refute after hearing Lin Zisheng’s words. “How can you believe the words of ghosts? From the olden time, isn’t ghosts the best at telling lies?”

Ghost Elder stood outside the formation and looked at Lin Zisheng with a smile on his face, “Now, I’ll give you a chance. Tell me if you have any last words. You can make any request like even if you want revenge and want to kill this person (BMM), I will help you.”

After hearing what Ghost Elder said, Bai Manman’s eyes are full of disbelief. Why could he say such a thing?

“Still don’t understand? There is no difference between dealing with ghosts and asking a tiger for its skin. Moreover…” Lin Zisheng glanced at Bai Manman up and down, and then said with a pity, “In fact, he never thought to let go any of us from the beginning. Heavenly yin girl is also a rare treasure.”

A yin girl is someone who is born in a yin month and year. If their birthday coincides with the Qingming festival or Zhongyuan Festival (Ghost Festival), then the girl’s yin aura will be even stronger. Then, she is no longer a yin girl, but a heavenly yin girl. This kind of body is also a rare tonic, so how could Ghost Elder give up?

After Ghost Elder heard Lin Zisheng’s words, his expression became serious. If Lin Zisheng didn’t know anything, he could rest assured. But now Lin Zisheng mentioned about Heavenly yin girl, that means he knew everything?

“You know about Heavenly yin girl?” Ghost Elder had a sullen face, and his gaze is murderous. He should have thought about that. Since this person has the true dragon’s bloodline and has activated it, then he must have gained the inheritance of the true dragon!

“Naturally.” Lin Zisheng still has a shallow smile on his face, but at this moment, he is no longer standing stiffly on the ground. Lin Zisheng slowly floated in the air just like how he acted outside the formation, seemingly unbound by the influence of the magic array.

“You knew what formation this is!” Ghost Elder’s tone is affirmative, not a questioning tone. By now, he understands what happened. Ghost Elder originally thought that his strategy worked and he had the opponent in his hand, but now it seems that the situation is completely the opposite. It seemed that he got outwit by Lin Zisheng by an unexpected move.

“Of course I know what the formation is. Bai Manman didn’t tell you that I’m from the Association of Heavenly Masters? The crime scene photos here must be delivered to me right away upon discovery. How difficult is it for Mount Longhu to recognize a formation?” The person who answered this time is not Lin Zisheng but Zhang Daoling.

How could Ghost Elder not know that these two people were acting together just now?! Ghost Elder knows that the current situation is very unfavorable for him. If he forcefully fights 2-on-1, he will not win. Hence, ‘avoiding confrontation’ is the most correct choice. He’ll just make do with the Heavenly yin girl today. Although she is not as good as Lin Zisheng and his true dragon bloodline, but she is still a great tonic. After swallowing the Heavenly yin girl, he will be able to go against these two people! Ghost Elder’s gaze flickered. He moved to grab Bai Manman and escape from the two people away. When they meet next time, he’ll see who is the final winner.

It’s just that before Ghost Elder could act on it, the formation at Lin Zisheng’s feet suddenly expanded, covering Bai Manman and Ghost Elder. The next moment, black shadows suddenly seeped out from the lines of the formation. When all the individuals are shrouded, the black shadows disappeared, and everyone in the villa disappeared, leaving only the bloody formation on the ground.

“This…” Zhang Daoling is a little confused, looking at the void around him. Where is this place?

“This is the inside of the Demon Binding Array. Maybe I should say this is the real form of the Demon Binding Array.” Lin Zisheng explained in a low voice. Now sure why, Zhang Daoling thought he heard a hint of depression in his voice.

“Hmph, I didn’t think you actually dragged us into the array,” Ghost Elder’s voice sounded endlessly proud, “I thought you are a clever person, but I didn’t expect to be so stupid, don’t you know…”

In an instant, Ghost Elder who wanted to say something froze on the spot, looking at Lin Zisheng incredulously, “Where is the qi of yin in the formation?! Why did it disappear?!”

At this moment, Ghost Elder discovered that something is wrong with the array. Since the Demon Binding Array is used to seal ghosts, the creator won’t let the ghosts die so easily because sometimes, death is a liberation. In order to keep the sealed ghosts ‘alive’ in the array, the inside of this magic array is full of qi of yin, which can guarantee that the ghosts will not dissipate.

And in this array, Ghost Elder attached some of his spirit essences, so the array should belong to him. After absorbing the qi of yin in the formation, the whole demon-binding array will completely obey his command. At that time, Ghost Elder can use this array to refine Zhang Daoling and Ying Qingxuan. But he didn’t expect that things would go completely different from what he had imagined, this place didn’t listen to him at all.

“Are… are you looking for this thing?” Lin Zisheng stretched out a hand, and a drop of red blood appeared on his fair palm. If one looks closely, the drop of blood is lightly shrouded in a dark aura. This thing is the essence of Ghost Elder’s spirit.

“How did you find it?!” Ghost Elder thought his strategy is quite hidden that they shouldn’t be able to find it!

Lin Zisheng chuckled and shook his head, “I have been sealed in the Demon Binding Array for thousands of years. You think there will be anyone in this world who knows this Demon Binding Array better than me?” Lin Zisheng’s face looked a little pale at this moment. Although he said that he understood the formation, but it is still quite troublesome to suppress it.

Zhang Daoling slowly stood in front of Lin Zisheng after seeing Lin Zisheng’s gesture. He stared at the black shadow not far away who has a bitter expression on his face. A small golden light slowly emerged from Zhang Daoling’s palm. The light spot becomes bigger after floating out of his palm and finally becomes a 2-foot-long golden coin sword.

“Ah Ling, you only have an hour. If you can’t finish him within an hour, then you will have to fight while being crushed by the yin energy.” The pressure coming from all directions made Lin Zisheng felt like he might get crushed at any time.

“En, got it.” After saying this, Zhang Daoling faced Ghost Elder not far away and said, “The grievances between you and my Mount Longhu for so many years should be settled today!” Next, Zhang Daoling’s domineering aura ascended steadily. For an instant, it seemed that the young man in front of Ghost Elder is not the Heavenly Master with a poisonous tongue, but more like the Master Zhang who created the Dao of Zhengyi — Zhang Daoling.

On this side, Ghost Elder and Bai Manman have finished talking about what to do next while Lin Zisheng is wondering about other things. It’s because he received a notification from 001 that surprised him.

[DING DONG, system scanning… Female Lead’s positive feeling +5, current positive feeling 84.]

[Side Mission 2: Raise positive feeling from Female Lead to 80% and above (Completed). Reward: EXP 100 & 300 Points. Receive the reward? [Y/N]]

“Yes.” What Lin Zisheng wanted to know the most is what ‘bizarre’ things he has done to raise the female lead’s favorability to him to shoot up like a rocket.

As if 001 knew what Lin Zisheng is thinking about, and it also is curious about the reasons for the increase in the female lead’s favorability, 001 specifically went to check it out. [Host-daren, the female lead of this world is a major facecon.]

When 001 found out the result, it made 001 speechless for a long time.

Lin Zisheng: Hehe, facecon is indeed an evil thing!

Lin Zisheng has imagined countless reasons, even the dog blood reason – love at first sight. He did not expect that it was facecon. Although once he accepted this setting, it seems not bad, but the important thing is he can’t make himself accept such a setting at all at this moment, a’ight?!

“Forget it, let’s change the topic.” Lin Zisheng doesn’t want to know how Bai Manman likes his face. “I think we should make plans what to do next.”

Although the world has restricted Lin Zisheng from the beginning and prevented him from making too many changes to the plot, small changes are still possible. It is said that ‘the embankment of a thousand miles is destroyed by an ant’s nest’. Sometimes a slight change can make the whole thing go in the completely opposite direction. It seems that it’s not that difficult for Lin Zisheng to do this.

Lin Zisheng silently goes through the plot. He doesn’t know why but he keeps having this feeling of uneasiness as if someone is scheming him behind his back. At this moment, the only person Lin Zisheng could think of is the Ghost Elder they met that day. According to his guess, if Ghost Elder really wants to scheme something, the first person he will choose to cooperate with is Bai Manman. But Bai Manman is afraid of ghosts and everyone knows that so Lin Zisheng ruled out Ghost Elder right at the beginning.

What Lin Zisheng can’t imagine is when a woman really has feelings for someone, she will become ‘powerful’. To obtain the thing they want, the woman will bravely march forward without fear!

[Host-daren, some information is still being transmitted to the main system. From there, I dug out a useful piece of information so your plan can wait a bit longer.]

Hearing 001’s words, Lin Zisheng nodded and agreed. Although he is confident, he is not an arrogant and self-serving person. Since 001 said it has more useful news, he could wait. It’s just that though Lin Zisheng and the others can wait, some people couldn’t. After Ghost Elder and Bai Manman agreed on a plan, the unbelievably calm Haicheng city suddenly fell into an extremely huge danger. The ghosts and evil spirits that seem to have disappeared clean overnight, reappeared suddenly in Haicheng city in the middle of a full moon night. This time, the entire Haicheng is shrouded in a cloud of darkness.

“Qingxuan, don’t you think something is wrong this time?” Zhang Daoling wasn’t prepared when it happened suddenly so he got caught off guard. “The spirits suddenly disappeared, then suddenly appeared again. Not giving us any time to prepare, this must be a plan done by the Ghost Elder, and…”

“someone familiar with us must be helping him!”

“someone familiar with us must be helping him!”

In the last part of the sentence, the two of them spoke in unison. Apparently, their thoughts are the same this time.

“Who is the person you thought of?” Although this is worded as a question, Zhang Daoling’s voice sounded like he is gritting his teeth. It is obvious that he already has a candidate in his mind.

“Bai Manman!” Although this is the most unlikely candidate, Bai Manman has been behind them for the past few days and knows their whereabouts well. If she wants to reveal this information to the Ghost Elder, it is not impossible. “It’s just that Bai Manman is afraid of ghosts. This is the factor that makes me exclude her.”

Unlike Lin Zisheng, Zhang Daoling didn’t lower his guard towards Bai Manman even at times like this. “It’s hard to say, but now the matter has just begun, so we still have time to figure out who is helping the Ghost Elder!”

It’s just that ‘plans can’t keep up with the changes/things don’t always go according to plan’. Just when Lin Zisheng and Zhang Daoling wanted to secretly test whether Bai Manman is that person, something happened to Haicheng city, and it is a major event! In just 2 days, many people in Haicheng city died from evil spirits’ haunting causing a large-scale death. The most frightening thing is their death seemed to be some kind of ritual. In general, everyone died of suicide — a sacrifice-like suicide.

“What kind of ritual is Ghost Elder trying to make?” Lin Zisheng frowned as he looked at the half formation drawn with blood on the ground. Ying Qingxuan’s memory seemed to have a little impression of this formation, but the specifics were not clear.

“It seems to be a ritual indeed. We’d better stop it as soon as possible. No matter what the ritual is, it will not be a good thing for us.” Ghost Elder is the leader of the evil spirits stranded here, and his strength is one of the best. If the ceremony causes him to get more powerful, Haicheng city will soon become his sacrificial city.

“Daoling, I can help you this time,” Bai Manman said but Zhang Daoling became more vigilant after hearing that. She looked at him with a bit of bitterness in her heart and added, “rest assured, I really didn’t lie to you. My family lives nearby and I know more about the terrain there than you. I can take you directly to the location of the incident, avoiding the police.”

Hearing Bai Manman’s words, Zhang Daoling’s brows tightened again, but in the end, he accepted her help. There was no other way. Although Zhang Daoling is a member of the Association of Heavenly Masters, this status is not easy to use in the secular world. If he can avoid the police, it’s better to avoid it!

Bai Manman smiled happily after hearing Zhang Daoling accept her help. Zhang Daoling got taken aback by this smile because it is the first time he saw Bai Manman’s cheerful smile. If her previous smile can be described as soft moonlight and water which is a little melancholy, then her current smile is like sunshine, bright and dazzling, like a bright sky. If it is the younger Zhang Daoling, maybe he would be moved by her sudden smile. But now… not sure why, after seeing this smile, Zhang Daoling’s thoughts felt that no matter who, they are not as good as Ying Qingxuan’s smile.

What the hell?! Why would he think that a man’s smile is more beautiful than a girl’s? This is a devastating blow to Zhang Daoling’s 3 views, alright?! As a normal straight man, Zhang Daoling has never had extra thoughts of any man. Also, because he is a Heavenly Master (exorcist), he understands the principle of yin and yang stabilizing each other. Hence, it is impossible for him to be tempted by a man. Perhaps it is because Lin Zisheng stayed by his side day and night, Zhang Daoling involuntarily let go of his defenses.

“What’s the matter?” Feeling Zhang Daoling’s gaze on him, Lin Zisheng turned around and smiled at Zhang Daoling. His slightly narrowed phoenix eyes seemed sly but carried a hint of naiveness, causing Zhang Daoling to cover his chest involuntarily.

Just now… what is that feeling of heart palpitations? Could it be he is having a heart attack?

On the other hand, bystander 001 almost kneel after seeing this scene with the pair of males. It is clear that there is no relationship between the 2 men right now, so what with the pink bubbles surrounding them? What’s going on?!

Bai Manman on the side also saw this scene and suddenly felt cold all over. Right now, all she wanted to do is quickly complete the transaction with Ghost Elder. Only in this way can she feel relieved!

After school, Bai Manman took the two towards the destination. Her speed is very fast. Although she did not run, but the men could feel her eagerness. Going down the route according to the Ghost Elder’s instruction, Bai Manman finally brought them to the destination after many twists and turns. It is a villa that had been abandoned for a long time. No, maybe it should be said that it is an unfinished building. It should have been a group of villas, but for some reason, the project is abandoned before the villas finished building. The place where the ceremony is held is the one standing in the middle of these villas!

“It’s this place.” Standing at the door of the villa, Bai Manman refused to take a step forward. She could feel the chill in the air and her whole body is frozen stiff. If she followed them to go inside, Bai Manman has a feeling that she would get suffocated and die.

Zhang Daoling threw a glance at Bai Manman, he didn’t force her. Before Bai Manman could stop him, he followed Lin Zisheng into the villa. In an instant, a strong cold air enveloped the two causing them to stand stiffly, unable to move at all.

“Hehe, welcome to my humble house.”

Just when Zhang Daoling and Lin Zisheng wanted to find a way to break free, a low voice sounded, and they stopped struggling. Squinting their eyes, they looked at the dark corner not far away. Right now, how could they not know that this is Ghost Elder’s plan to capture them? Also, they can confirm that Bai Manman is the one helping Ghost Elder and sold them out!

Regarding Ghost Elder’s words, Lin Zisheng seemed to have not heard him. His gaze fell on the dried blood markings on the ground. After a long while, he said, “Ghost Elder sure done a lot of preparation. In order to catch me, you even used the Demon Binding Array!”

No one in this world knows the Demon Binding Array better than Lin Zisheng, because it’s the same method that got Ying Qingxuan caught by those people. Those people sacrificed countless innocent lives to set up the Demon Binding Array just to trap him in the array!
