I Became a Spirit in Date A Live, but I Refuse to Date

And she kept making sounds like a lovestruck girl.

"What is going on...?"

The corner of Shido's mouth twitched.

Perhaps because the scene before him was so surreal, all the pressure he had built up vanished in an instant.

Honestly, he had imagined all sorts of reactions from Lingmeng.

But none of them seemed remotely close to what had actually happened.

Shido wanted to say something to break the silence.

But he had no idea what to say, so he could only watch as Lingmeng continued wriggling around on the bed.

Time for a change of scene...

A few minutes passed.

Lingmeng's emotions seemed to settle, and she stopped acting quite so childishly.

She sat on the bed with her legs folded to either side, wrapping the white sheet around herself until only her head showed.

Puffing out her cheeks slightly, she looked with shy displeasure at Shido, who knelt on the floor before her with his head lowered in guilt.

"So, my dear Mr. Shido, shouldn't you explain yourself?"

Lingmeng narrowed her eyes and tilted her head, asking in a very "kind and gentle" voice.

Her voice was as lovely and soothing as ever, yet a chill ran down Shido's spine.

If she wanted to know why he had kissed her, Shido wasn't entirely sure himself!

His head had gone hot, he had made the decision out of nowhere, and before he knew it, he had kissed her.

But if he gave her such a muddled explanation, Lingmeng probably wouldn't let him off the hook.

At the thought, cold sweat trickled down Shido's forehead again.

Then he answered in a faint voice.

"Um... You wouldn't wake up, and I got lost staring at your face... Then I suddenly wanted to kiss you..."

"So you were simply after my body?"
