[Hahahaha, poor Director Yang! He actually fainted from fright!]
[No, Director Yang was faking it!! Real dizziness doesn't happen like that!]
[Then I'll laugh too! It's hilarious!]
[This definitely isn't a female ghost!! It must be an actress hired by Director Yang!!]
[What era are we living in? Still so superstitious? Where did this ghost come from?! If there really is one, let me see it!]
[Ugh, so annoying! They say there's no script, but there really is. This is ridiculous, I'm not watching anymore!]
Du Lanwan stood there, feeling a little bewildered. She hadn't shown any ghostly appearance, nor was she scary! How could she have fainted?
So easily frightened?
This is probably where ghosts and humans can't communicate.
After the guests worked together to lift Director Yang onto the sofa, Du Lanwan said with a pitiful expression, "Boss, I didn't scare him!!"
Ji Nanshu waved his hand. "He's fine." He's just faking it.
Seeing that the female ghost seemed easy to talk to, Bai Nanyu cautiously stepped forward and asked, "Pretty sister... why did you scare my brother and me last night?"
Du Lanwan glanced down at Bai Nanyu and answered very seriously, "Just bad luck."
"But my second brother and I... we've never encountered anything like this before, before participating in the show." Bai Nanyu seemed troubled, glancing subtly at Ji Nanshu. "It's only since my third brother had his fortune told for my second brother that things have been like this all the time..."
It's obvious they're saying all these things are because of Ji Nanshu, and they're even trying to frame Ji Nanshu for the scheme.
Du Lanwan gave a soft snort. Bai Nanyu's little scheme all too well. Humans were just too complicated, unlike them ghosts. If they were not convinced, they would fight! If they couldn't win, they would just apologize. Why bother with all this sarcastic and insinuating nonsense!
Do you really think she knows nothing?
I've eaten more idiots than you're ever old!
"Stop making insinuations with me. You're just unlucky yourselves, you unlucky devils!"
After last night's fright and the slap he received in the cellar just now, Bai Nanchen was furious. As the second young master of the Bai Family, his career in the entertainment industry has been smooth sailing, and he is someone that most minor celebrities wouldn't dare to offend.
Ever since Ji Nanshu joined the show, nothing has gone smoothly for him. He's either inexplicably knocked out a front tooth, been scared by a ghost, just got slapped, and now he's being called an unlucky ghost.
Can Bai Nanchen tolerate this?
You're saying Du Lanwan is a ghost?
What's wrong with ghosts?
Even a rabbit will bite when cornered! What won't a person do when they're enraged? They don't care if the person opposite them is a human or a ghost!
Bai Nanchen slammed his fist on the table and roared, "You're the damn unlucky one! Don't think I don't know you and Ji Nanshu conspired to mess with us! First, you deliberately scared us so that bastard would extort 600,000 from me, and now you're cursing me and Xiaoyu? Do you really think I, Bai Nanchen, am afraid of you?"
As Bai Nanchen spoke, Du Lanwan's face grew darker and darker, followed by a sudden gust of wind that rattled the windows.
Faced with Du Lanwan's sudden change of expression, the guests, including Director Yang was pretending to faint on the sofa, huddled together and trembled.
Only the staff member carrying the camera professionally moved the camera away, looking completely bewildered: Who is he? Where is he? What is he doing?! Can he just drop the camera and run away?!
slap slap--
Very well, Bai Nanchen and Bai Nanyu each got slapped.
Du Lanwan's skin turned deathly pale, and where her eyes should have been were two bloody holes! Two long, bloody tears streamed down from the corners of her eyes, suggesting they had been gouged out before she died. Her gaping maw was filled with sharp teeth; if it bit into someone, it could tear a large chunk of flesh away!
"Who... who do you think you're talking to?!"
Du Lanwan hadn't intended to scare them, but this Bai Nanchen was just too infuriating!
How dare you call her an unlucky ghost?! She's a vengeful ghost!! Do you even know what a vengeful ghost is?! How dare you talk to her like that! If you want to die, just say so!!
How could that low-level ghost, the Unlucky One, be compared to her?!
Don't they understand the principle that a scholar can be killed but not humiliated?!
Seeing Du Lanwan's ferocious nature, Shu Cheng was about to make a move, but Ji Nanshu stopped him. "Those who speak without thinking deserve a lesson. Don't worry, she won't kill them."
A ghost that hasn't been corrupted by the Yin energy and lost its mind has the potential to become a ghost immortal. Generally, it wouldn't want to cause unnecessary bloodshed, so Ji Nanshu wasn't too worried.
"But... this female ghost seems to have lost her mind..."
Shu Cheng hesitated for a moment.
Ji Nanshu explained, "I was just trying to scare them. Who told Bai Nanchen to be so reckless and call them unlucky..."
In the ghost realm, cursing someone as an unlucky ghost is basically equivalent to cursing someone as a horse in the human realm.
Shu Cheng: "..." It does seem a little impolite!
Never mind, he'll wait and see.
While Ji Nanshu and Shu Cheng were leisurely watching the show, Bai Nanchen and Bai Nanyu were both terrified and cried.
Bai Nanyu screamed and cried, "Aaaaaah! Help!!! Get away from me!! Get away from me!!!"
Bai Nanchen wasn't much better off. He scrambled to Ji Nanshu for help, but his tone remained arrogant and condescending. " Ji Nanshu!! Aren't you a Daoist priest?! Why don't you kill this female ghost right now!!"
Shu Cheng really wanted to ask Bai Nanchen if his brain had been slammed in a door at birth? How could someone ask for a favor and still act like that? And to say "kill the ghost" in front of a ghost... Anyone with a brain wouldn't talk like that...
Ji Nanshu grinned and said, "Sure~ You'll have to beg me~"
Bai Nanyu looked at Du Lanwan, who was about to attack, clenched his fists tightly, and shouted with a humiliated expression, "I beg you!! Please save us!!"
"Ha! Since you begged me, I'll reluctantly save you!"
As he spoke, Ji Nanshu raised his hand and drew a talisman, casting the "bind" spell to imprison Du Lanwan in place.
Ji Nanshu then asked Shu Cheng, "Do you have any containers to hold ghosts?"
Shu Cheng quickly handed over a sign. "Is this alright?"
"Hmm, it should last for two days." Saying this, he ignored Du Lanwan's resistance and simply put the ghost into the wooden plaque.
As soon as the ghost was taken inside, everyone's tense nerves immediately relaxed, and with this relaxation, their sense of smell seemed to become more acute.
Jian Yuanjia sniffed, looking puzzled. "Strange, why does it smell like urine? It stinks!"
This reminder prompted the guests to start looking for the source of the smell, and their gazes finally settled on Bai Nanyu sitting at the table.
Bai Nanyu finally came to her senses and, seeing everyone staring at her, burst into tears. She got up and went back to her room on the second floor.
Bai Nanchen glared at Jian Yuanjia and chased after him.
He won't let any of these people go!!
Jian Yuanjia scratched his head. "Did I... say something wrong...?"
Jin Shi's lips curled into a slight smile as he said, "It does smell pretty bad."
