CHAPTER XX

The maids in the Xiyan room all went back to the back room to rest. She lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep. The room was quiet, and I could hear the wood of the beams cracking because it was cracking. Since she was grounded by her father, except for her mother, who came to visit occasionally, she was the little maid by her side, and Xiyan was afraid that she would be bored with her, so she sent her to help elsewhere, and she could come and go when she delivered food and bath water.

In the first few days, she relied on sleeping and dreaming to pass the time, but these days, she couldn't even sleep, let alone dream for entertainment. She persisted for a long time, but she couldn't help it, so she sat up. She pulled back the curtain and went down to open the window to get some air.

As soon as she pushed the window, she froze. There was a man standing under the window, a man, a man with a masked face. She reacted quickly, reached out to close the window, and he was faster, leaping into the house with her.

The moonlight was very bright, and he pressed the moonlight on her back, but her face was unobstructed. His eyes were bright and shining in the night, and he stared at him in a daze.

He got up first, didn't speak, and closed the window. Then, reach out and lift her up.

"Don't be afraid. He said in a low voice.

"As long as you're not a ghost, I'm not afraid. Xiyan's lips trembled.

"I'm a ghost. ”

"But you have a shadow. She pointed out his loopholes.

"Of course, because in this man's body, he's a living man. His voice was soft, earnest, hypnotic.

"Then I'm a ghost, too. Xiyan finally heard the nonsense behind his seriousness, so he also learned from him.

She was dressed in a thin white pajamas, with her curves exposed, her long hair was scattered, and her eyes seemed to sparkle in the moonlight, I really didn't know how she would have thought she was a man before.

"Can't you sleep?" he admired, admiring her face in the night.

"yes. She slouched and sat down on a chaise longue beside her.

"Why, what are you thinking?" he relaxed, and sat down on the chaise longue at her feet. Back to the light.

"It's because I don't have to think about anything that I can't sleep. Her feet were a little cold, but the cold toes that touched the sides of his legs warmed him up.

"Heh, it turns out that you can't sleep well when your brain is empty. "He's sneering.

"What about you? Do ghosts also have insomnia?" she saw by a little light, that he had a deep outline, long eyelashes, and must be a beautiful man.

"yes, otherwise how could you wander here?" she was more charming than before, and besides being naughty, she had a more seductive side.

"Will ghosts be lonely?"

"Yes. He chuckled. "That's why I'm looking for you. ”

"Have you ever been here?" Xiyan chatted with him for a while, and gradually became sleepy.

"I'm there for you every day. His words were meaningful.

"I was dreaming. Her voice lowered. He looked again and saw that she had fallen asleep.

"I really dare to sleep. He frowned, got up, picked her up, leaned over and put her on the bed, and was about to get up, but she suddenly reached out and pinched his face, not painful, but enough to frighten, he let out a low cry. Look again, her eyes are bright open.

"It wasn't a dream. He could guess that she must have laughed delicately and sly.

"Pretend to be asleep. ”

"Sort of. She scrambled to her feet and sat down in the corner of the bed, keeping a safe distance from him.

"You're too bold. His voice sharpened.

"Don't be too stingy, pinch it and you won't lose a piece of meat. She wasn't impressed. "Besides, if it's not your body anyway, you don't have to mind. ”

"Are you always like this?" he said suddenly.

"yes, that's what I am. She pulled the quilt and covered herself.

"If I were a villain, you would lose ten lives. ”

"So I'm glad I met a ghost in human skin. Xiyan smiled.

He suddenly deceived her approach, "You always play tricks on me, be careful that I am annoyed and snatch you away." ”

Xiyan didn't speak, stretched out his hand from the quilt, through the veil, carefully touched his face, he was also like a demon, and her soft hand carefully inspected his face.

"You're back?"
