The protagonist chased the villain, and Tiandao screamed in anger

After being persuaded, Xiao Yu's face turned completely cold, his brows were frowned and his tone was heavier. The hand holding the door did not loosen no matter how the others pushed and shoved.

"Mother Lin, send the person back."

"...Master, please don't make things difficult for us servants! I am just a maid or concubine. The Second Master has many concubines. There is nothing to be ashamed of."

"Do you need me to say it again?" Xiao Yu really felt that the people in Furongyuan were so arrogant that they even dared to lecture him.

Just as he was about to lose his temper, the 'bride' standing quietly at the side spoke:

"Master, please let me in."

To the maids and old women, this voice sounded normal, just a simple female voice. However, what Xiao Yu heard was a male voice with a faint tone.

He was stunned for a long moment, his arms stiff, and he let go of the door.

"Oh, that's right! We almost missed the auspicious time. The young master is fine. I, as your old woman, will not disturb you any more!" Mother Lin waved her handkerchief and reported with satisfaction along with several maids.

After the few people walked away, Xiao Yu closed the doors and windows, turned around and looked at the person who walked into the room and sat on the couch with a red veil on her head. She hesitated and was not quite sure.

"...Ling Jun?"

"is it you?"

He just clearly heard an inexplicably familiar male voice, and subconsciously thought it was the other person. Although he let the person in, he was still not sure.

After sitting down, You Mu stopped pretending and took off the veil on her head.

"My name is You Mu. I'm not a spirit creature, but a ghost." He absorbed some of the Yin woman's human breath, which just happened to cover up his disguise and also allowed Xiao Yu to see him through the illusion.

After all, being unable to communicate verbally is a very troublesome thing.

He was wearing red clothes, had black hair and skin whiter than snow, but he did not look like a living person. There was little color on his face, but because of the red marks at the corners of his eyes and the color between his lips, he exuded a strange beauty.

It's like a ghost or a monster, and it's so captivating.

"You look like this..."

Xiao Yu stared at the red-clothed ghost opposite him with his eyes wide open for a long while, and then his ears turned red as if belatedly realizing what was happening. He tilted his head and looked away.

[Humph, no future! ]

[This time, if you hook up with the protagonist again, it will be more than just an electric shock! 】

Tiandao was angry that Xiao Yu was seduced by beauty, and once again warned You Mu to stay away from the protagonist.

The last world was an exception, this world can still be saved!

[Besides those trivial electric shocks, what other moves do you have? ]

【You don’t want to know! 】

You Mu smiled indifferently, no longer paying attention to Tian Dao, leaning back on the couch, straightening his clothes, and telling Xiao Yu everything he knew.

"I told you, your stepmother wants to harm you, so she set a trap for you tonight..."

Xiao Yu listened quietly, his slightly relaxed emotions gradually gave rise to more and more anger. His chest rose and fell with a heavy heart. After hearing the other party's brief narration, he was able to realize his current disadvantaged position.

He knew that the stepmother was not a kind person.

Perhaps when he was still young, he would still be confused, but as he grew older and suffered a few losses at the hands of the other party, he would always pay attention and become more cautious, waiting for an opportunity to find evidence and explain things clearly to his father.

But before the opportunity came, his father fell ill, and the affairs of the business were handed over to the manager. The whole house became the world of the stepmother.

Now, he is even using such tricks as sorcery and ghosts to plan to kill him and seize his property.

"Thank you very much for your rescue over the past few days. However, I am ill now and it is inconvenient for me to travel. I don't know how to repay you." Xiao Yu bowed to express his gratitude. At this moment, he felt that although You Mu in front of him was a ghost, he was more friendly than his nominal relative.

"It doesn't matter whether I repay you or not. If you really feel bad, just offer an altar for me." Although the power of incense doesn't have much effect, it's still a pleasure to experience the feeling of fullness of a living person occasionally.

"Okay, cough... I'll ask Zhu Huan to buy some items tomorrow." Xiao Yu agreed immediately, speaking a little anxiously. His throat was itchy and he felt like coughing.

A figure in red flashed and appeared in front of him. He twisted a pill with his cool fingertips and pushed it into Xiao Yu's mouth through his lips.

"I took it, it relieves my cough."

Xiao Yu seemed a little overwhelmed by the sudden shortening of the distance between them. His eyes wandered across the other person's cheek, but he didn't know where to look.

The pill with a minty scent was held between his lips and teeth. When the fingertips left, the pill almost fell out of his mouth. Xiao Yu held it in his mouth and swallowed it, and the tip of his tongue accidentally touched the other's fingertips.

The slender fingers in front of her eyes paused slightly, then retracted and disappeared under the wide sleeves.

“…I’m sorry.” Xiao Yu apologized stagnantly. After taking the pill, the bloody taste in his throat was covered up, leaving only a slight numbness on the tip of his tongue.

"No problem"

You Mu turned around and sat back on the couch, his robe swaying like gorgeous petals blown by the wind.

"It's late, go to sleep, I'll be here to watch over you." Xiao Yu was sick after all, and couldn't stay up all night, and You Mu didn't intend to let him stay up with him.

Judging from the time, it is time for the old Taoist to cast a spell through the air.

The old Taoist was very alert and basically never met his step-wife in person when communicating with her. He always relied on servants to place notes and items at fixed locations to achieve cooperation.

Perhaps because of the protection of the law, this man is cunning and has three burrows. Although he found the location every time, he was always one step late due to unfortunate circumstances. He did not directly expose the ghost marriage. He also wanted to use this incident as a bait to find the hiding place of the evildoers.

"How can I do this? This is my business, how can I sleep peacefully?"

Xiao Yu was naturally unwilling to do so. Firstly, this was his business and he couldn't stay out of it. Secondly, he knew that the old Taoist was quite skilled and the man in front of him was a ghost. If the two of them confronted each other, and something went wrong...

You Mu looked at Xiao Yu standing there in the room in a daze, then he stood up and walked over to her, hooked his hand on her belt, and pulled Xiao Yu towards the inner room.

[What are you doing!] Tian Dao was very stressed.

[Can’t you see? I sent you, my big son, to bed, but I didn’t even touch his hand] You Mu asked back.

【You'd better not do anything else! 】

Xiao Yu only felt the other party approaching. Although his body was cold, it did not feel as cold as frost at the bones. It was a very strange feeling. It was clearly the kind of ghost that people in the world should fear, but he only felt at ease.

He just followed closely and was taken by the red-clothed ghost to sit beside the bed.

"Go to sleep"

"I..." Xiao Yu was still unwilling. After knowing so many things, how could he be so calm as to feel sleepy?

However, the words of argument were not spoken out, as they were suppressed by the red ghost's fingertips. He saw that the ghost suddenly smiled, slightly tilted his head and smiled at him: "Be good... go to sleep, my little husband"

Before he could get distracted, he saw the other person's sleeve brush past his eyes, and a red veil passed by, and his consciousness disappeared.

You Mu laid the man down and covered him with the quilt. As soon as he let down the bed curtain, he felt the numbness in his fingertips spread throughout his body.

[Is it that serious? Father-in-law, you need electricity to coax people to sleep? ]
