"Delicious!"

Qin Liu did not notice the person standing outside the door.

She was enjoying her own Crazy Thursday.

Although she had been badly frightened at that residence, getting to eat long-missed fried chicken and hamburgers now made it all worthwhile.

The girl sat on the bed, her bare little feet swinging nonstop. She looked lively and adorably spirited.

And because she was eating, she was not wearing her red veil.

Her delicate little face was exposed just like that.

Just as the Black Book had said, Qin Liu was exceptionally beautiful.

Her beauty was difficult to describe in words, but one thing was certain: if she had that face in the real world—

Even if she did nothing but start a livestream and sit there, a huge crowd would shower her with money.

Looks really could put food on the table.

Unfortunately, Qin Liu was not human. She was merely a ghost without a physical body.

Almost no one could even see her existence.

At present, Deng Xiaolin was the only one who could see her.

And according to what Qin Liu knew, Deng Xiaolin could only see a red silhouette.

She could not see Qin Liu's face at all.

So Qin Liu was not worried about Liu Haoyu discovering what she looked like.

After all, although he was an exorcist, his spiritual vision was not very strong.

He would need to rely on certain tools to see her.

Once he bought that basket and silver mirror or whatever, she could simply avoid him.

Qin Liu's little plan was coming together beautifully.

But just then, she suddenly felt a gaze fall on her.

After being watched, Qin Liu reacted like a startled rabbit and hurriedly sat up straight.

However, she did not put down the hamburger in her hands. She merely stared around with her cheeks puffed out.

Every now and then, she even chewed.

Then her gaze met Liu Haoyu's.

The young man was hiding behind the crack in the door, staring fixedly at the bed.

No way?

Qin Liu's heart gave a sudden jolt.

Could he have used some kind of spell to see me?

At that thought, Qin Liu hurriedly put on her veil.

Liu Haoyu was already rather improper. If he saw her true appearance, wouldn't that be even more disastrous?

After putting on the veil, Qin Liu sighed in relief and once more turned her gaze toward the door.

Liu Haoyu was still watching the bed.

Because the red figure had flashed past just now, Liu Haoyu had not been able to see the other party's face clearly.

"Hm?"

Logically speaking, if he could see her, then after that brief exchange of glances, he should have had the sense to come in.

Could his nerve really be thick enough for him to openly spy on someone?

Or could he not see me after all, and this is just my imagination?

To verify the truth, Qin Liu silently moved several steps to the left.

Sure enough, Liu Haoyu's gaze did not follow her.

What? So he still can't see me.

That put her at ease.

Qin Liu crossed her legs and floated in the air. After finishing her cola in two or three gulps, she still could not figure it out.

Forget it. If I can't figure it out, I won't think about it.

Qin Liu had never been one for thinking. She floated lazily in midair and stretched.

After eating and drinking her fill, of course she had to get a good sleep.

However, she had no interest in fighting Liu Haoyu for a bed, so as usual, she simply lay in midair and closed her eyes.

But just after she closed them, she suddenly thought of something. She opened her eyes and sat up.

This man wants to steal my offerings again!

Qin Liu glared viciously at Liu Haoyu, but her malicious, icy stare did not make the young man back down.

Instead, he spoke to the air.

"Did you just become visible?"

"How could I? Besides, I can't reveal my true form. And... I already ate that hamburger!"

Qin Liu had seen plenty of people freeloading from her offerings.

But eating something once, then eating it again after it had already been eaten—just saying it aloud made it sound terribly wrong, didn't it?!

"Don't be so stingy. You've already finished it anyway. If it stays here, it'll only end up growing mold."

As he spoke, Liu Haoyu reached his sinful hand toward the Kentucky fried chicken sitting on the altar.

"Wait! At least leave the cola..."

Qin Liu stepped in front of Liu Haoyu, then was shocked to discover that a hand had been placed against her cheek.

Liu Haoyu naturally felt that extremely unfamiliar sensation as well.

How should he put it...

It felt extremely cold to the touch, but not unpleasant.

It was also incredibly smooth, and the sensation was very comfortable.

But the problem was... this was not how a cola cup should feel.

Where exactly am I touching?

Liu Haoyu's mind entered a frenzy. He spread his hand wide, and then his thumb felt something slightly moist, along with a strange warmth.

"Hiss..."

What is going on?

What the hell am I touching?

To explore this unknown sensation, he pressed his thumb inward. This time, he touched something very hard.

It was square and tiny, with some sharp edges, like a human canine tooth.

Liu Haoyu seemed to understand something.

But he still was not entirely sure. To get to the bottom of it, Liu Haoyu pushed his thumb even farther in.

Sure enough! He touched an extremely soft tongue!

That meant he was touching Qin Liu's face?!

And his thumb had even gone inside her mouth?

"Hiss..."

"Have you had enough?!"

Unfortunately, before Liu Haoyu could savor the softness, the girl's sharp teeth bit down without mercy.

"Arghhh!!"

The fingers were connected to the heart, and that bite hurt Liu Haoyu terribly.

Driven by the reflex to escape the pain, he instantly yanked his thumb out of Qin Liu's mouth.

The young man looked at his thumb. A clear bite mark from the girl had indeed appeared on it.

Clearly, Qin Liu had not held back at all.

After all, being forced to open her mouth by a man she had only recently met—

That was far too embarrassing.

The girl left the room, both humiliated and furious, while Liu Haoyu clutched his thumb and whimpered in pain.

After taking a long while to recover, he finally climbed up from the floor. Looking at the crystalline liquid on his thumb, a spark of curiosity suddenly rose in his heart.

Come to think of it, wasn't anyone curious about what a ghost's saliva tasted like?

The young man leaned closer and smelled it...

It had no particular scent, but it carried the fresh fragrance of a mountain spring.

Oh, right. There was also a faint sweetness from cola.

Just as he hesitated over whether to have a taste—

The red embroidered shoes inside the shrine seemed to come alive and smacked straight into Liu Haoyu's face.
