Chapter 106: Eaten by an Evil Spirit (**)

  At this moment, Xuan Mei Chen was no longer the man with a noble status, nor was he the man with eyebrows like water, cold and stern but carrying unspoken sorrow that Han Xi Tong saw for the first time.

  At this moment, he is like a helpless and confused child. He urgently needs to use his thin body to protect the people he wants to protect. He feels guilty, ashamed, and regretful, but thinks that nothing can be done, and is now in distress.

  At this, Han Xi's eyes couldn't help but deeply sigh. The hand that was stroking Zhen Yu's hair became even gentler.

  It seemed as if he was comforting him, telling him not to be sad.

  "Fool, who says you're useless?! Haven't you heard? Everyone is born with a purpose, it's just that you haven't discovered yours yet. But I believe in you, one day you'll shine brightly and become the most outstanding person in this world!"

  Han Xi Tong's words, one word and one sentence, were deeply engraved in Xuan Mei Chen's heart like a branding iron.

  When Han Xi Tong spoke, the originally dispirited and listless Xuan Mei Chen seemed to have suddenly understood something. The pair of dull eyes that had been downcast now shot out a brilliant light.

  "Are you telling the truth?"

  "Hehe, of course, don't you still believe what I say?"

  Huang Xi's eyes sparkled as she gazed at Xuan Mo Chen, her eyelids fluttering slightly as she smiled slyly at him.

  Xuan Mei saw this and also smiled slightly.

  That smile, like dispelling dark clouds, sunshine radiant, such warmth...

  ……

  Because of Han Xi Tong's words, Xuan Mei Chen began to work hard and strive for self-improvement.

  These days, he seems to want to make up for the time he wasted in the past. After all, back then, his life was meaningless, just passing one day after another. But now it's different.

  He has someone he cares about, someone he wants to protect. So, he wants to work hard, after all, apart from being the Sixth Prince, he has nothing. So, he wants to strive, to struggle, to give his loved ones what they want!

  So, during this period, in order to develop his own talent, Jing Mei Chen recruited many talented and artistic outstanding individuals to study under him.

  He must learn all about music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry and seal carving.

  Every day, he arranges his time fully, almost without giving himself any rest time.

  Watching Da Xun work so hard in the morning, Han Xi Tong quietly watched from the side, silently cheering him on.

  It has to be said that Xuan Mei Chen is very diligent and studious, and also highly intelligent.

  Almost after being taught by the master once, you can learn seven or eight points.

  Those who taught Zhen Mo Chen were full of praise, not because of his humble identity, but because Zhen Mo Chen indeed had extraordinary talent.

  Although heaven gave him a miserable childhood, losing the love of his parents, it also gave him talents that others didn't have.

  Especially, Jing Mei Chen was very diligent, making Han Xi Tong feel heartbroken for him. Moreover, seeing his efforts also made her unable to clearly say what she wanted to tell him last time.

  Because of what happened last time, Xuan Mei Chen and her relationship seemed to have returned to the past, and Xuan Mei Chen no longer said anything ambiguous to her. She just put her whole heart into studying, but Han Xi Tong knew that he was trying hard to show something in front of her.

  It's impossible not to be moved, after all, the human heart is not made of iron. She saw everything with her own eyes and felt even more pity for him in her heart, being moved for his sake...

  As for what happened with Xuan Mei Chen, Han Xi Tong had another thing that made her suspicious, which was the time she was attacked by assassins.

  Those killers, they had sent people to investigate, but they couldn't find out the identities of those people. However, Han Xi's eyes seemed to have found out that they were assassins from Luo Sha Ge.

  But what made her puzzled was that after that time, the surface had become calm and peaceful, as if the thing had never happened.

  Han Xi's eyes were puzzled, wondering if the ghost had given up on killing her or for what reason.

  Moreover, these few nights when she slept, she always felt as if someone was sitting quietly beside her, watching her, and that feeling was extremely strange.

  The first night, she thought it was just her being too tired, so she overthought things. However, as the days went by, that feeling never dissipated, letting Han Xi know that this matter wasn't just her imagination. So, she decided...

  ……

  The night is enchanting, the stars are shining brightly, and the moon is hanging high in the sky.

  The moonlit courtyard, with a corridor every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps, features artificial hills and stone bridges, showcasing a unique layout that embodies the elegant beauty of Jiangnan.

  At this moment, it was midnight, and all was quiet, except for the night watchmen on duty in the other courtyard, everyone else had fallen into a deep sleep.

  Only in a certain elegant room inside another courtyard——

  The lights in the house had already gone out, and the remaining faint moonlight poured in gently through the carved window, casting a layer of soft silver light.

  All I saw was a beautiful young woman quietly sleeping on that pink-purple canopy bed.

  Her long hair cascaded down her sides like water, setting off that face with its jade-like translucent roundness and pure white complexion, beautiful without a single blemish.

  Next to the big bed, a golden bronze tripod was emitting a faint and delicate fragrance, filling the whole room.

  All around was quiet, except for the soft sound of breathing from the person on the bed, indicating that she was sleeping peacefully.

  Night had deepened, and from outside came a few faint howls of wolves that were almost inaudible, making the night seem even more quiet.

  All of a sudden, in this quiet and peaceful atmosphere, a faint 'ya' sound suddenly rang out.

  That was the sound of the wooden door slowly rubbing against the ground, very quiet, as if the person who came in was afraid of waking up the people sleeping in the room.

  It must be that the originally closed wooden door with carvings had been opened from outside, stirring up a gust of cold wind, and then quickly closed again.

  A tall, pitch-black figure, almost merging with the night, quietly and stealthily approached the bedside, its presence as eerie as a ghost.

  The moonlight stretched the tall and slender figure of the man, making him appear even longer. After entering, he stood at the foot of the large bed, just as he had done in the past few days, quietly standing by and gazing silently at the person sleeping on the bed.

  However, if this scene were to happen now, and the people in the Louvre were to find out about it, they would definitely be frightened out of their wits.

  After all, in their minds, their master is the Asura of hell, the living Yama, who kills people like hemp, extremely cold-blooded, with an icy face, and no one dares to approach.

  But at this moment, the person they revered and feared, like a god, was sneaking in stealthily, just to catch a glimpse of the beautiful woman who had been etched in his heart.

  That person who made him heartbroken and at a loss for what to do.

  This matter is so unbelievable that even ghosts would think it's unthinkable if they were here now.

  If it were him from a few months ago, he wouldn't have dared to believe that he would fall in love with a woman. He, unexpectedly, also understood... love...

  However, in reality, he really fell in love and loved so thoroughly!

  But also because of this love, he felt a sense of helplessness he had never experienced before.

  After all, he didn't know how to love this woman in front of him.

  He has money, if this little woman in front of him likes money, he can send gold and silver mountains, silk and satin, rare treasures to her face.

  But this little woman clearly knew his identity, knew he was all-powerful, yet still chose to escape, escape his love.

  Was his love really so unacceptable to her?!

  The demon was heartbroken and bitter about this.

  He misses her every moment, and when he doesn't see her, his heart feels empty, as if a corner is missing, no matter how hard he tries to fill it.

  However, he cannot openly accompany her by her side, it's because he is afraid that if she sees him, she will continue to run away.

  So he could only choose this way to meet her.

  Every night, after she fell asleep, he would come to her bedside and gaze quietly at her peaceful sleeping face.

  She was really beautiful, and he couldn't help but feel like he couldn't get enough of looking at her.

  However, for fear that she would suddenly wake up, the ghost, as usual, first reached out to press her sleep pulse, and then sat down on the bed with a peace of mind. Slowly, he lifted his slender big hand, slowly tracing her facial features, gently and tenderly.

  It's as if what was under his fingertips was the most precious thing in this world.

  Indeed, in his heart, Han Xi Tong was the only one in this world, the most precious...

  His heart softened, feeling the softness under his fingertips, making the demon's heart skip a beat, and he couldn't help but slowly lean down, wanting to savor once again the soft lips under his fingertips.

  This kiss was what he had been savoring for the past few days, and it was also this kiss that sustained his longing for her, growing more intense with each passing day...

  However, just as the ghost was about to lean down and accurately cover those soft, sweet lips as usual, something unexpected happened.

  A moment of emptiness, and the person under him had already dodged away. The ghost was taken aback, and before he could react, a voice full of playful teasing and sarcasm suddenly rang out, especially clear in the quiet night.

  "Wow, I didn't expect the master of the Luocha Pavilion to be interested in being a flower thief too!"

  Han Xi Tong coldly smiled and snapped her fingers, the originally pitch-black room suddenly became bright.

  Also clearly captured was the man who still maintained that stealthy, waist-bending movement!

  Hearing Han Xi's sarcastic laughter and teasing gaze, Gui Mei's face turned red with embarrassment, her eyes flashing with a hint of being caught off guard.

  When he saw the shy expression in Gui Mie's eyes, Han Xi's face slightly froze, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

  These past few days, she has been feeling that something is very strange at night when she sleeps, and after thinking about it carefully, she finally came up with this fake sleeping method. As it turned out, her guess was correct.

  While she was sleeping, there really was someone beside her, and this person was actually him!

  That usually icy and frosty Loshan's master, a ghost!

  And what did his actions just now mean?

  He actually came here, touched her sleep spot, and started caressing her. Did he really do something to her for the past few nights!?

  Thinking of this, Han Xi felt that she had been violated by someone, and towards Gui Mie, a wave of anger flashed.

  What is this supposed to be?

  Do you like her? But why did you send an assassin to kill her again last time?!

  To her, he was unfathomable.

  As for the angry and beautiful eyes of Shang Han Xi, Gui Mei's face slightly stiffened, and he slowly straightened his waist, pursing his red lips tightly, seemingly at a loss as to what to do with the scene before him.

  Because Han Xi Tong's gaze was so angry, yet with an extreme temptation.

  All I see is her at this moment, her long hair like water, slightly disheveled, casually scattered over her body.

  Wrapped in a white dress, she looked so sweet and lovely, making him infatuated.

  However, at this moment, he also naturally sensed Han Xi's anger. In an instant, that face, which had been as cold as ice for thousands of years, became even redder due to embarrassment. His eagle-like eyes flickered, and his thin lips wanted to speak but stopped, as if wanting to explain something to Han Xi.

  However, Han Hui's eyes on the other side had already sternly interrupted him.

  "You demon, what do you mean by this? Do you take me for some kind of fool? Coming to my room in the dead of night, poking at my sleep spot, and molesting me... is this your idea of affection?! And wasn't it just last time that you were trying to kill me?! So now, are you here to kill me or what?!"

  Han Xi Tong heard about what happened last time, and a layer of self-blame and guilt appeared on Gui Mie's face.

  "Tong Er, I'm sorry. Last time, that thing... I admit it was my fault. I originally intended to go and kill the woman those two princes were searching for, but unexpectedly, Han Xi Tong turned out to be you..."

  "The two princes have been searching for a woman? You're referring to..."

  Hearing Gui Mei's words, Han Xi's eyes widened in shock.

  "Which two princes!?"

  "Tong Er, didn't you know that the Seventh Prince and the Fourth Prince have been searching for your whereabouts all along?"

  As for Han Xi Tong's words, Gui Mei didn't understand, but after thinking for a moment, she still spoke the truth.

  Because he knew Han Hui-yeon was extremely angry about what he had just done, he wanted to make up for something.

  Han Xi Tong was like a thunderstorm on a clear day after hearing Gui Mei's words, and she was completely stunned.

  "The Seventh Prince and the Fourth Prince..."

  Xing Xiao Ran and Xing Yang Lie have been searching for her all along!

  My mind went blank, my heart skipped a few beats, and then it was filled with a warm feeling.

  For several months, she has been like a turtle with its head drawn in, hiding in her own corner and deliberately not asking about the imperial palace, thinking that this way, she would not hear those heartbreaking things.

  She is afraid, Xuan Xiao Ran hates her.

  Still remember that day, his angry and desperate eyes, the roar of Stry, like a wounded beast, was her who hurt his heart.

  He thought he would hate her for the rest of his life, but now he is still looking for her. Doesn't he blame her anymore?

  He is looking for her...

  Thinking of this, Han Xi's eyes warmed up, and a layer of mist gradually appeared in her eyes.

  After all, Xiang Yanran was the first person to be kind to her since she came into this world.

  His meticulous care and thoughtful attention moved her deeply.

  However, she eventually hurt his heart, but now he still comes looking for her, how can she not be moved?

  There is also Yang Lie.

  Still remember how much she disliked him at first, but he ended up saving her time and again. Although he was always idle and reckless, in fact, he wasn't bad to her either. If it weren't for that one night...

  At this thought, Han Xi's heart was like an overturned five-flavor bottle, with all sorts of flavors rising to her mind.

  In her heart, warm and touching...

  However, her appearance with various colors of God, falling in front of the man's eyes, was extremely unpalatable.

  That handsome face sank rapidly, with a layer of frost on his face, marking an aura that warned strangers to stay away.

  Those good-looking eagle eyes suddenly ignited two thick vinegar intentions. Thin lips tightly pursed, low growling.

  "Who are you thinking of? Those two damned princes? You really like them?"

  Damn it, why does heaven always favor those people?

  That person identified with them, gave them fine clothes and food, a noble status, and lived a carefree life.

  They lack nothing, born with a golden key in their mouths since childhood, living a life of luxury and extravagance, with tea served at the stretch of their hands and meals presented at the opening of their mouths.

  But what about him?

  Since childhood, I have been dependent on my mother, watching her beautiful face gradually wither away due to the struggles of making a living, and finally, she passed away with reluctance, loss, and regret.

  The mother waited for that man all her life, loved that man all her life, just because of a promise from that man, saying he would definitely come back to pick her up.

  Just because of this sentence, she waited, with a strong hope, but he never came, all the way to her death...

  And he, originally should have been like them, born with a golden key, living a life of luxury and wealth, without worrying about food and clothing, his childhood, should be happy, having a loving mother, and a loving... father...

  But he, who should have been his father, a person with blood ties to him, abandoned the mother and son!

  Perhaps, in his heart, he didn't even know that he had another son...

  He hates it, really hates it!

  Why must he and his mother be treated like this! Why!?

  Now, even his most beloved woman has them in her heart, why!?

  The demon's heart was broken and desperate, his heart at this moment was like being cut by thousands of invisible sharp knives, cutting him repeatedly, leaving him with countless scars and wounds...

  That hatred was like a poisonous vine, tightly entwined in his heart, sprouting and taking root!

  Compared to the hatred in Gui Mie's heart, after hearing his gloomy roar, Han Xi Tong, who was originally indulged in memories, suddenly came back to her senses. Upon hearing his low growl towards her, a surge of anger brewed in her heart.

  She opened her beautiful eyes and let out a loud roar at the ghost.

  "Who cares what others think? I like them, so what?"

  Towards this overbearing and inscrutable man, she felt a hatred that made her teeth ache.

  Sometimes he is gentle and considerate enough to move people, but sometimes he is overbearing and domineering enough to make people dislike him.

  Moreover, Hanhee dislikes it when others yell at her, so she got angry too.

  But even if she was angry again, it couldn't compare to the ghost's anger and hatred.

  And he had to admit his jealousy!

  Why did those people get everything he couldn't have now, and are they going to take away the woman he loves too?

  No!

  He doesn't allow it! Doesn't allow it!

  The demon's heart was burning with anger, and that pair of narrow eagle eyes, at this moment, were covered with a layer of crimson red, making them look even more terrifying.

  It also left Han Xi's eyes with a layer of astonishment.

  But before she could react, she felt a darkness in front of her eyes, and the ghost suddenly rushed straight at her!

  A kiss filled with jealousy and anger, without any tenderness or gentleness.

  That kiss was like a stormy rain that left me breathless. Such madness, dominance, forceful sucking, biting, and ravaging...

  Overwhelmed by the ghost on the bed, and then entwined and bitten by him so frantically, Han Xi's eyes widened in shock, and she struggled even harder.

  Unfortunately, her struggling hands were soon tightly shackled by the thick and solid palm of the ghost, and then pressed against her head. One hand even firmly fixed her shaking chin, sealing off all possible escape routes.

  The demon is so powerful, even a kiss is like this!

  Because at this moment he really hated it, was so angry!

  He loves her, he loves her so much, but why does she always have to hurt his heart? Is it just because he loves her that he loses?

  No, absolutely not!

  The anger and resentment in her heart were overwhelming, but after tasting the sweetness on his lips, the originally fierce kiss gradually became gentle.

  Action is no longer rough.

  Until——

  Ouch! The sharp pain made the charming eyebrows frown, and the tight kiss quickly parted. A line of bright red blood slowly dripped down from his lip corner.

  Against that resolute face, exquisite features, and stunning jawline, there's a sense of breathtaking sensuality!

  Just like a perfect and handsome vampire!

  However, despite this, Han Xi's heart was still very angry, so she glared at the handsome but infuriating man in front of her with a resentful gaze.

  Meeting Han Xi's angry gaze, Gui Mei felt a pang in her heart.

  The intense hatred she had for him made his heart and soul suffer, as if being cut by a knife.

  The pain on his tongue is far less than the pain in his heart!

  "Do you dislike me that much?"

  She just likes them like that and hates him?

  "No, I don't dislike you."

  Han Xi Tong spoke one word at a time, and when the ghostly eyes reignited with hope, he opened his mouth again.

  "I extremely hate you! I don't want to see you again in this lifetime!"

  "Hehe..."

  Upon hearing Han Xi Tong's words, Gui Mei's heart was enveloped by an even thicker layer of sorrow. However, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes, as if she had made some sort of decision.

  Her red lips parted once more.

  "Then just thoroughly hate it!"

  At least in her heart, he is being missed... hated...

  The words fell, and the ghost's kiss once again covered, along with that bright red blood, deeply kissing those soft lips once more.

  Just a little lower, Han Xi's eyes felt like they were going to pop out, and then Gui Mei's big hand pulled even harder.

  A ripping sound, and all the clothes were torn apart...

  Digression

  Well, didn't expect to be eaten by a ghost so quickly, eh. Suddenly wrote this bird ~╮（╯▽╰）╭

  Recommendation from friend Wenwen: "Taming My Husband"

  "Who is it, who is it... damn it, who got my belly big, I'm going to kill him." A woman in labor couldn't bear the pain and kept cursing loudly.

  The midwife who was assisting with the delivery had a face full of black lines and said helplessly, "Madam, giving birth is a necessary path for every woman, you need to endure it. If you say such things again, the six masters waiting outside will be heartbroken."

  "What? Six..."
