On the day I was kicked out of my parents’ home, I had a flash marriage with the richest man.

Xu Jing didn't plan to sleep on the bed, so he gentlemanly gave his bed to Wu Youyou and slept on the sofa.

Xu Jing is not a real gentleman, he just doesn't dare to sleep on that bed.

Seeing Wu Youyou lying on the bed, I suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. For the first time, I had a thought: Am I too bad?

He turned over and faced away from Wu Youyou, trying to dispel the strange thoughts in his mind.

I leaned against the sofa and closed my eyes.

For some reason, I always feel like there is a pair of eyes staring at me from behind.

Xu Jing turned over and looked back, but Wu Youyou had already fallen asleep and didn't even look at him.

Xu Jing felt a little uneasy. He turned over, turned his back to the sofa, and closed his eyes again. He still had the illusion that someone was staring at him.

He opened his eyes and confirmed again. Wu Youyou was lying flat on the bed, sleeping quietly and not looking at him at all.

Xu Jing looked around again, could it be Ma Rong?

That shouldn’t be the case. The window is on the second floor and Ma Rong can’t climb up at all.

He turned over and lay flat on the narrow sofa, looked at the ceiling for a while, emptied his mind again and closed his eyes.

He didn't know how long it had been, but he felt his breathing was suppressed and he couldn't breathe, as if a very heavy rock was pressing on his body. He wanted to open his eyes but couldn't.

Just when he wanted to shout out loud, he suddenly felt his neck tighten and a pair of cold hands gripped his throat tightly.

He struggled desperately and shouted, but no sound came out.

He wanted to ask Wu Youyou for help, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make a sound.

His grandfather's old face appeared before him, getting bigger and bigger, his eyes were red, and he questioned him with his bloody mouth wide open.

"Why did you tamper with my will? You unfilial grandson, come and keep me company!"

"Ahhhh!!!"

Xu Jing screamed in fright, suddenly waking up from the nightmare and breaking out in a cold sweat.

Wu Youyou was woken up by Xu Jing and quickly got up, asking in surprise.

"What's wrong with you? Have you had a nightmare?"

Xu Jing looked at Wu Youyou blankly, his thoughts seemed to slowly return, and his empty eyes gradually became clear.

He saw that it was Wu Youyou on the bed and there was no sign of his grandfather in the room. Only then did he relax and wipe the sweat from his forehead.

"Yeah, I had a nightmare. It's okay. Go to sleep."

Wu Youyou asked in a low voice when she saw Xu Jing hanging his head with pain on his face that had not yet dissipated.

"Is it really okay?"

Xu Jing covered his face, shook his head, and rubbed his cheeks hard, only then did he fully wake up.

"It's just a dream, it's okay."

He lay down again, but couldn't fall asleep. He tossed and turned, looking out the window from time to time, hoping that the day would soon dawn.

Isn’t it said that as soon as the sun rises, ghosts will disappear and dare not come out again?

But why does time go so slowly?

He waited for a long time, but dawn never came.

Gradually, he fell into a drowsy sleep and was awakened by the sound of the door unlocking.

The first thing Ma Rong did when he got up was to open the door.

She didn't want to cook and didn't know how to cook. Before she lived with Wu Youyou, it was Wu Youyou who cooked for her.

The food Xu Jing cooked last night was delicious. She knocked on the door and called Xu Jing to get up and make breakfast.

Wu Youyou woke up immediately, rubbed her eyes, pushed the door open, and angrily asked Ma Rong, "Mom, how could you lock us in a room? You're going too far!"

Ma Rong chuckled, looking proud of himself for having done something very clever, and nudged Wu Youyou with his elbow.

"What do you know? A man and a woman alone, staying in the same room for a night. Xu Jing couldn't get rid of you even if he wanted to!"

"Mom! He and I are just ordinary friends, can you please stop messing around!" Wu Youyou was so angry that her chest was swelling. She couldn't understand why she had such a mean mother.

Wu Youyou walked downstairs angrily, ready to leave.

Ma Rong chased after her and grabbed Wu Youyou, "Why are you running? If he sleeps with you, he has to marry you! From now on, you are the mistress of this house!"

"Hurry up and move out of that Lin's house and live here! From now on, this is your home!"

Ma Rong smiled so much that his lips almost stretched to his ears. "Your mother is really smart! Not only do we not have to rent a house, we will even have a mansion to live in in the future!"

"Your mother has never seen such a nice house in my life! We don't have to live in the slums and beggars anymore!"

Ma Rong smiled, opened his arms, and walked around the house, looking excited as if he had become the owner of this house.

Wu Youyou looked up at the sky in silence, "To tell you the truth, nothing happened between Xu Jing and me! Don't dream about it! Now, just follow me, I'll find you a hotel to stay in!"

Wu Youyou dragged Ma Rong out, but Ma Rong clung to the door frame and refused to leave no matter what.

"Why should I go with you! This is my son-in-law's house! You said you didn't sleep, so you didn't sleep? Do you have any shame to let a man play with you for nothing?"

"I don't care if you guys slept or not. You were in the same room last night. It's hard to explain. Your innocence is gone!"

"Whether you recognize it or not, I'm determined to make Xu Jing my son-in-law!"

Wu Youyou pulled Ma Rong hard, "Can you please be reasonable? Xu Jing just took you in out of kindness, are you going to sell me out again just for a house, a place to live?"

"I'm helping you find a returned overseas husband with a house and a car. It's all for your own good! With your conditions and your family, what good stuff can you find? Anyway, I don't care. I'm going to live here and not go anywhere else!"

At this time, Aunt Yuan bought some vegetables and carried a fish. She opened the door and came in. She saw two strangers arguing at the door and asked in confusion.

"Who are you? What are you doing?"

Seeing that it was an old lady older than herself, Ma Rong straightened her back and asked in the manner of a hostess.

"Who are you? How did you get in?"

Xu Jing, who had been hiding in the room and eavesdropping on the conversation between mother and daughter, saw that it was Aunt Yuan who came. He quickly got up, took out his grandfather's portrait, and went downstairs holding it in his hands.

He rubbed his eyes hard, making his eyes look red, as if he had just cried.

He went downstairs and came to the door, and called out warmly, "Aunt Yuan, you're here, come in quickly."

Xu Jing then introduced, "This is my family's servant! I've been working here for more than ten years, and she's like a member of my family."

"This is Wu Youyou, my friend, this is Wu Youyou's mother."

When Aunt Yuan heard that Xu Jing had just moved in a few days ago and had brought his friend and mother to live with them, she felt very uncomfortable.

Before the old man's body was cold, his property was taken away and his house was occupied.

Aunt Yuan's eyes were red. Seeing the portrait in Xu Jing's arms, she asked angrily, "Why did you take out the old man's portrait?"

Xu Jing quickly explained, "I think it's unfair to put grandpa in the room. It's better to put it in the living room, which is spacious and bright, and grandpa can also have a better time."

Aunt Yuan was relieved to see that Xu Jing still had a place for the old man in his heart, and walked in carrying a basket of vegetables.

"Today is the 27th day after the death of the old man. I will make some dishes that the old man likes to commemorate him."

Aunt Yuan changed her shoes in the entrance hall and went straight to the kitchen.

Xu Jing quickly found a suitable place in the living room and placed his grandfather's portrait.

Wu Youyou didn't want to stay here for even a minute longer and was about to leave when Ma Rong grabbed her and said to Xu Jing.

"You slept in the same room with my Youyou last night. You must be responsible for our Youyou! Otherwise, I will not forgive you."
