Ghost King Zhenyue had been agonizing lately over a problem he had no choice but to resolve.
"Should I steal the Imperial Seal back?"
When Zhou You had fished the wooden box out right under his nose and Chu Xiaoyao had opened it to take out the Imperial Seal, he had wanted to act on the spot.
The problem was that Nuomi had been watching right beside them. He couldn't make a move.
"That Chu Xiaoyao was really lucky. She didn't take the Jade Seal home that night. Instead, she brought it back to the classroom with Nuomi watching over the Imperial Seal."
If Chu Xiaoyao had taken the Jade Seal home, he would have gone straight to her house and snatched it back.
Although it was strange that Chu Xiaoyao could open the wooden box, he, Ghost King Zhenyue, was no ordinary ghost either. A thousand years ago, he had already been a ghost king worthy of the name. After another thousand years, his strength had advanced even further. Few in this world were stronger than him.
"I'll flip a coin. Heads, I steal the Jade Seal. Tails, I leave it until tomorrow."
Ghost King Zhenyue took out a Steel Coin and tossed it high into the air. It spun over and over before falling to the floor and bouncing a few times.
Heads.
"Let me check again." Cautious by nature, Ghost King Zhenyue picked up the coin and tossed it once more.
The coin landed.
Heads.
Ghost King Zhenyue stared at the coin for a while before making up his mind. "Let me check agai... forget it. I'll go."
Resigned to his fate, he picked up the coin. Next time, he ought to throw it out the window. That way, he wouldn't see whether it landed heads or
