Chapter 9
Liu Haoyu thought he had misheard.
He stared blankly at Qin Liu in front of him and asked, “Are you serious?”
“Could I possibly be lying to you?” Qin Liu glanced at Liu Haoyu, “What benefit would I get from deceiving you?”
Indeed, as Qin Liu said, there was no need to hide such a thing.
But illusions are usually created based on the recipient’s cognition. Why could Qin Liu see these things?
While Liu Haoyu was pondering, Qin Liu continued speaking.
“Well… such things are impossible.”
The little girl shrugged her shoulders.
“But thanks anyway.”
The little girl stretched and then lay back on the bed, pulling the quilt over herself.
After some rustling inside, she tossed her bath towel out from under the covers.
Watching the bulging quilt, Liu Haoyu twitched the corner of his mouth.
Even without thinking, he knew that Qin Liu was completely naked under the covers.
Was she really that unreserved?
After all, he was still standing here.
“Unreserved?” Qin Liu seemed to read his mind as she poked her head out, looking at Liu Haoyu with disdainful eyes. “I can guarantee that during the time I was in a coma, you definitely saw everything,”
“So if anything, you should be responsible for me…”
“By the way, why do you have no reaction at all?”
In response, Liu Haoyu straightforwardly replied, “Because I really only have a thing for white stockings, not lolis, thank you.”
“Really?”
“Of course it’s true. I have no thoughts about you… at least for now.”
“Huh?” Qin Liu squinted her eyes, “So that means you have thoughts about my future self?”
“That cannot be denied.”
“You are quite an honest person.”
Qin Liu murmured softly.
With her very strong spiritual sight, she seemed to see quite a bit from Liu Haoyu.
To verify the feasibility of these things, she tucked her head back under the quilt.
Seeing that she didn’t ask him to leave the room, Liu Haoyu decided to sit on the chair by the bed.
Although there had been a small interruption, tonight’s actions had to continue.
If he waited for that old bastard Gu Qianyang to return, it would be too difficult to take action.
He closed his eyes, preparing to take a short nap.
But at that moment, the Black Book spoke up.
“I need to tell you something very frightening…”
The low, serious tone of the Black Book made Liu Haoyu immediately open his eyes.
“What is it?”
“Because you are in a spiritual body state… I discovered that Qin Liu has been trying to read your memories.”
“!?!!”
Upon hearing this, Liu Haoyu shot up immediately.
It wasn’t that he was on guard against Qin Liu, but some memories… really weren’t meant for someone her age to see!
“Don’t panic, don’t panic,” the Black Book opened up, and a pale hand reached out, pressing down, signaling Liu Haoyu to calm down: “There’s no need to be so alarmed. For her to read your memories is not a simple task,”
“From what I guess, what she sees are fragmented memories,”
“Focus your gaze on that bulging quilt,”
“Right now, this little girl is attempting something a bit dangerous inside…”
“You’d better go and take a look.”
Liu Haoyu immediately looked at Qin Liu’s quilt.
Indeed… given her small stature, if she truly had fallen asleep, it was impossible for it to bulge this much.
This little girl seemed to be curling up, not knowing what she was messing with under the covers.
Liu Haoyu tiptoed over, trying not to make a sound.
It wasn’t until he fully touched the edge of the quilt that he felt…
A chilling aura emanating from inside the quilt.
“Qin Liu, what are you doing in there?”
Hearing Liu Haoyu’s voice, the little girl inside the quilt clearly panicked a bit.
“I… I’m not doing anything!”
However, it was obvious that Liu Haoyu wouldn’t believe this little one’s ghostly excuse.
He took a deep breath and caught hold of a corner of the blanket.
A piercing cold surged up his spine from his fingertips.
As a ghost exorcist, this coldness mixed with the scent of decay… was something Liu Haoyu was very familiar with.
It was a special fluctuation held by unregulated ghost fire.
But for someone like Qin Liu, who had never dealt with ghost exorcism, it was quite dangerous.
One careless move could lead to disaster!
“Liu ba jiou (R5) V scar age private bell!_Wuw this girl…”
At that moment, Liu Haoyu felt like a father struggling with a child.
The rustling sound inside the quilt continued, and he could vaguely hear Qin Liu’s suppressed giggles.
Liu Haoyu held his breath…
Three…
Two…
One…
He held a talisman used to suppress ghost fire and suddenly yanked the quilt away.
Inside the quilt, a ball of eerie blue flame hovered above Qin Liu’s palm, about three inches away.
The eerie blue light illuminated her already pale little face, making it look even more spectral.
More horrifying was that in the center of the ghost fire, a distorted, terrifying face could be faintly seen, seemingly letting out a silent scream.
Liu Haoyu roughly knew who this woman was…
According to the Black Book, this woman was a servant in the house, but had been killed a few days ago in a very tragic way.
How did she end up in Qin Liu’s hands?
“Liu Haoyu?”
Startled by the sudden removal of the quilt, Qin Liu shivered, and the ghost fire in her hand shook violently.
“What do you suddenly want to do?!”
It should be noted that she was completely naked now, and with the quilt suddenly pulled away, she was quite embarrassed!
“Don’t move.”
Liu Haoyu looked at the wildly shaking ghost fire in Qin Liu’s hand, then accurately tossed the talisman onto the ghost fire.
The talisman hovered in mid-air, emitting a piercing buzzing sound.
However, the talisman did not disperse the ghost fire but allowed it to retain its shape, remaining suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, Qin Liu finally saw clearly what was inside the ghost fire, and her small face instantly turned pale with fear.
“Aunt Wang?”
It was at this moment that Qin Liu realized that the ghost fire she was controlling was not some random lonely ghost, but… the soul of the servant who had died in this mansion.
In the illusion, her horrific appearance was still vividly stuck in her mind.
“Collect.”
Liu Haoyu took back the talisman; his movements were smooth, and his expression was calm and collected.
This was a far cry from the appearance seen before.
It wasn’t an exaggeration to say… even Qin Liu had to admit he was a bit handsome.
Seeing Liu Haoyu retract the talisman, Qin Liu wanted to say something, but dazed, she then realized she was completely naked.
Her small face turned red, and she hurriedly tried to pull up the quilt to cover her body.
“Hiss…”
However, when her hand touched the quilt, a sharp pain shot up to her head, causing her to hiss in pain and forget about grabbing the quilt, holding her sore hand and gasping in cold air.
It was then she discovered a circle of charred marks had appeared on her palm.
