Chapter 41: Face Kick
Qin Liu’s eyes widened, disbelieving. She hadn’t forgotten what the black book had said. A very powerful ghost exorcist had entered the house. That meant Liu Zining… was a ghost exorcist?!
“Thunder Attracting Talisman!”
As Qin Liu stared at Liu Zining, the young girl felt Qin Liu’s gaze. She held a Thunder Attracting Talisman between her index and middle fingers, attempting to attack Qin Liu. However, the moment Liu Zining intended to attack, an extremely terrifying coldness enveloped her entire body. Even though Liu Zining was powerful, she was completely unable to move. Liu Zining felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a hand, making it impossible to even breathe. She could only watch as the Thunder Attracting Talisman in her hand turned to ashes.
“How… is this possible?”
She spoke with difficulty, but even so, she took countermeasures.
“Evil spirits, retreat!”
The umbrella in her hand automatically sprang open. Like the sail of a ship, the umbrella pulled Liu Zining backward for three meters. The young girl gasped for air, feeling as if she had just walked through hell in a single meeting. Even more terrifying was that Liu Zining still didn’t know what the fierce ghost looked like. Her hands were trembling. After so many years as a ghost exorcist, she felt fear again after a long time.
Seeing this, Liu Zining directly drew three talismans from her waist and blasted them towards the cabinet in the room.
“Boom!”
When the dust settled, the wardrobe in the room was reduced to splinters. The red shadow that had been hiding in the cabinet was now nowhere to be seen.
“What exactly was that…”
Liu Zining stood up again, patting the dust off herself. This petite and young girl had eyes full of resilience and coldness.
“Could it be… a ghost messenger from the underworld?”
She had originally thought that what appeared here should be a ghost infant. Ghost infants were very powerful, especially in the supernatural circle, striking fear into the hearts of many. When Liu Zining came here, she had written her will, to put it mildly. She didn’t encounter a ghost infant, but instead, she encountered a more terrifying existence. As for what that red shadow was? Liu Zining didn’t know. But for some reason, she felt… that the other party had no ill intentions towards her, and seemed to know her?

“Wo Ri!?”
Qin Liu suddenly woke up from her dream. She wiped the cold sweat from her forehead. That petite and delicate girl… was definitely her younger sister. But why would she become a ghost exorcist? And hadn’t she been reincarnated as Qin Liu for so many years? Why did Liu Zining still look only 17 years old? No… no… no, no, no?!
Cold sweat covered Qin Liu’s back. Because she had been trapped in that haunted house for so many years and had no calendar to help her perceive time, when was she reincarnated? Five years ago? Ten years ago? Or forty years ago? Qin Liu felt her memory becoming increasingly chaotic, making it difficult for her to think about her situation. When she died in a car accident and reincarnated, what year, month, and day was it? It seemed to be… December 11, 2023? If she remembered correctly, that day was a Monday, and she had been constantly posting online, “Monday, Monday, my seventh day.” So, what time was it now?
Qin Liu hurriedly picked up her mobile phone from the bedside. Liu Haoyu, who was sleeping on the bed, also felt Qin Liu’s movement. He opened his eyes, looking a bit confused.
“What happened?”
“Calendar, calendar… where is the calendar?”
Qin Liu didn’t have time to explain to Liu Haoyu. She was anxiously tapping her phone screen. Due to excessive body tension, she tapped incorrectly several times. Finally, she opened the calendar and, after confirming it repeatedly, her eyes widened.
“January 24?”
What was going on? Time had only passed by a month? That means she not only reincarnated, but she also reincarnated into the past?
“So, what’s up?”
Liu Haoyu yawned and asked confusedly, looking at Qin Liu’s expression like the sky was falling.
“Tell me if anything happened.”
“……”
Qin Liu’s dull brain was stunned by the massive amount of information. This meant that she had been in this world for so many years, but… the original her had been run over by a dump truck just a month ago? Then who was she? Who… who was she? Qin Liu stood there rigidly, her mind becoming increasingly muddled by the terrifying thought.
At this moment, Liu Haoyu also noticed that something was wrong with Qin Liu. So, this man stretched out his sinful hand and gently placed it on Qin Liu’s feet.
“Eek!”
The sudden ticklish sensation immediately pulled Qin Liu back from the abyss of cold thought. She looked down and saw the sinful hand on her feet. She was stunned for a moment, then her eyes widened, and she looked at Liu Haoyu in confusion. Then she saw the man very seriously examining her feet.
“Hmm… they feel so soft, with no calluses at all. Is this the benefit of being a ghost?”
“And they don’t smell of sweat at all… they even smell a bit fragrant?”
“Die!!!”
Qin Liu’s face became increasingly flushed. Unable to hold back anymore, she kicked Liu Haoyu directly in the face.

“This…”
An Qinglian looked at the red mark on Liu Haoyu’s face and let out an awkward sound.
“What’s with the footprint on your face?”
At the same time, her gaze fell on Qin Liu, who was lying on the bed, clutching her feet in pain. The strange atmosphere between the two made An Qinglian unable to suppress her curiosity.
“And how did Qin Liu’s foot get injured? I asked her, but she was hesitant and wouldn’t tell me in detail…”
“This?”
Liu Haoyu was brushing his teeth and answered very carelessly.
“In a sense, this might have something to do with me.”
“What?!” An Qinglian’s eyes widened in disbelief: “Master, no matter what, you shouldn’t have used force on Qin Liu, that weak woman!”
“If there are any issues or conflicts, they can all be resolved through discussion!”
“By the way, is the injury serious? Do you need to go to the hospital?”
Facing An Qinglian’s string of questions. Liu Haoyu didn’t rush to answer. He spat out the toothpaste foam in his mouth and said leisurely.
“It should be nothing serious.”
“Then what did you use to hit her? I see Qin Liu is still clutching her feet, and she looks like she’s in a lot of pain. Did you use something like a stick or something?”
“How is that possible? Do you think I would be the type of person to use weapons on women?”
Liu Haoyu finished brushing his teeth but didn’t wash his face.
“Then what did you use to injure Qin Liu’s feet?”
“…My face.”
