The ghosts they had imagined were always eerie and frightening, if not exuding an uncomfortable chill that seeped into the air, but the female ghost before them completely overturned this notion.
Even Qu Siya, who never liked anyone more beautiful than herself, was captivated for quite a while, unable to say a single bad word about the female ghost.
At this mont, they seed to understand why, in so ghost stories, people would rather risk having all their life force drained just to be with a female ghost.
Mu Yunchu turned back to look and found that the people who had been following her were now gazing blankly, their faces filled with infatuation.
She imdiately furrowed her brows slightly and silently ford a hand seal.
It felt as if sothing was suddenly pulled from their heads, and they quickly sobered up.
Soon after, they shivered, "What’s going on? I-I think I was just staring at that female ghost?"
The most noticeable difference was that earlier they had all been staring intently at the dark blue figure, but now they didn’t even dare lift their eyes, their gazes darting side to side, too afraid to make contact.
It felt as though if they even glanced at her, she would swoop down upon them.
Judging by the others’ reactions, everyone seed to have experienced the sa thing.
Unavoidably, they felt even more fear.
"Damn, is this female ghost that powerful? If we run now, is it still possible to get away?"
Despite saying this, their legs were already too weak to run.
If it weren’t for the fact that their numbers were still relatively large, they might have fainted on the spot from fright.
"Don’t ask ," Qin Long’s voice was trembling, nervously searching his pockets for a cigarette to steady his nerves, but then rembered they were recording a program, so his pockets were empty, "This is my first ti encountering a ghost too."
No experience at all!
They talked for a while, ti dragging out as though every second was an hour, but in reality, only a little ti had passed.
The female ghost had not moved for a long ti either, seemingly without any intention to attack them.
However, this didn’t an they could rest easy, sharing the sa space with her.
All of them overlooked that it was Mu Yunchu who had done sothing to bring them back to their senses. Instead, their sole focus was on how to escape.
Until Qu Siya suddenly realized sothing, gathering her courage, she shouted at the ghost, "Did you hide Jiang Ci?"
The others were almost scared off by this shout.
Qin Long almost reached out a hand to cover her mouth.
"Are you crazy?!"
"Why would you provoke her?"
But it was too late to stop her now, because after Qu Siya shouted, the female ghost slowly turned her gaze towards them.
"It’s over!" Qin Long imdiately felt as if the sky was falling, "We really can’t escape this ti."
Qu Siya shrunk her neck but still weakly asked, "If it’s true, can you return him to us?"
"We didn’t intend to disturb your peace."
"We’ll leave imdiately once you give him back."
Speaking words that sounded tough in a tone that was anything but was precisely like this.
Not only did it have no intimidating effect, but it also seed like she was pleading.
Hearing her, the female ghost suddenly moved.
Just by tilting her head slightly, she made them all subconsciously take half a step back.
However, the female ghost only tilted her head, as if seriously considering Qu Siya’s words.
After a mont, her head moved awkwardly, and she tried to speak, finally uttering a few halting words.
"That... man?"
"Impossible."
She didn’t seem unable to speak, just unfamiliar due to not speaking for so long.
Yet, even so, they all understood her aning.
She would not hand over Jiang Ci.
The female ghost had stolen a man and refused to return him. As soone who had grown up influenced by Chinese ghost movies, a dramatic scene imdiately unfolded in her mind.
In her shock, Qu Siya felt more anger than anything else.
Competing for a man with another person was enough.
Now even a ghost had to intervene?
In monts of anger, fear tends to diminish greatly.
Thus, in the next second, she rolled up her sleeves and did sothing no one expected.
"Do you have no sha as a female ghost! That man has a girlfriend, and you’re here in broad daylight trying to snatch him away."
"Besides, there are people queued up behind him, I didn’t even have a chance yet. Do you understand the principle of ’first co, first served’?"
"If you’re capable, we can compete fairly and openly. Using such underhanded tactics, what kind of skill is that?"
...
She cursed three tis in a row, and even Qin Long and the director were left speechless.
It took a few seconds before Qin Long surreptitiously raised his thumb towards her.
"Impressive!"
And once the rage surged, uttering a string of curses, she cald down and realized what she had done.
Qu Siya: "..."
Can I take it back now?
Compared to her, the female ghost appeared much calr.
If at that mont they were floating in mid-air, they probably wouldn’t even tell who was actually the ghost.
Yet even at this mont, the female ghost spoke softly.
"I won’t kill you, nor do I want to harm you."
"But I have my reasons for keeping that man."
"If you wish, you can still leave now."
The more she refused to let him go, the more unwilling Qu Siya beca.
But her unwillingness didn’t an others felt the sa.
Especially the caran, who had nothing to do with Jiang Ci.
Upon hearing this, it was as if they had received clency, turning to flee imdiately.
They even started persuading others, "Folks, we can’t be foolish at this ti. She said we can leave, so aren’t we going to leave instead of dying here with Jiang Ci?"
"Yeah, my family’s single lineage! I really don’t want to die here. Besides, we have no special bond with Jiang Ci to die for him. Listen to , let’s just go!"
"Exactly, if you’re dead, it’s all over. It’s better for one person to die than a bunch of us, right?"
"At worst, can’t we seek help from outside?"
So people’s expressions clearly relaxed. They began seriously considering their words.
Just as they were about to suggest leaving for the ti being and figuring sothing out later, Qu Siya stiffened in her resolve.
"I said it!"
"You must hand him over."
Then she turned to scold those who were about to flee, "Are you still n? Director, didn’t you say you’re most afraid of accidents? If Jiang Ci gets into trouble, your show will definitely co to a halt."
"Besides, are you sure you can trust the ghost’s words? Will she truly let us leave safely?"
As everyone was at an impasse and Mu Yunchu still hadn’t said anything.
The latter suddenly sensed sothing and let out a sigh of relief.
The person she had been waiting for had finally arrived.
