Chapter 257 [Strange Things Happening] (6300)

Power outage?

This was Chen Yan’s first reaction.

He then observed secretly and discovered that after Lu Sisi had seen off her parents and brother, and was walking back home, the ghost only then slowly emerged near the courtyard gate.

It can’t leave the yard?

Or perhaps it can only appear in its own yard!!

Chen Yan instantly grasped this crucial piece of information.

So...

Is it related to the concentration of Primordial Qi?

It needs a place surrounded by dense Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi to appear?

After confirming this point, Chen Yan suddenly smiled.

"What’s up?" Lu Sisi saw Chen Yan’s smiling face and couldn’t help but curiously ask, "Why are you smiling?"

"Nothing, your brother called me brother-in-law before he left, and it made me pretty happy." Chen Yan responded nonchalantly.

Lu Sisi chuckled and suddenly rolled her eyes, cuddling up next to Chen Yan, pressing his arm against her soft chest, and whispered, "Do you like being called brother-in-law? Then... when the... time comes, can I call you brother-in-law too?"

Chen Yan’s heart fluttered instantly, and he glanced at Lu Sisi.

She’s learned some mischief!

No longer the innocent eighteen-year-old girl anymore.

"Actually, you could try calling me by other names too." Chen Yan said sincerely.

Lu Sisi’s face blushed, but she whispered, "I’m sorry, Chen Yan."

"Huh? Why apologize all of a sudden?"

Lu Sisi bit her lip, "I know, this time when you came back, you happened to encounter my mom getting sick, and then brought her home to stay for so many days... Having a stranger at home, you must be not used to it, and it’s inconvenient, so..."

At this point, Lu Sisi looked a bit resentful, "You haven’t touched me at all since you returned, probably because my mom is staying at our house, right? You feel awkward and not used to it, don’t you?"

Uh...

Chen Yan didn’t quite know how to answer.

It’s indeed uncomfortable, but not because of Lu Xiuting.

It’s because... of that ghost!

Ever since he discovered the ghost on the first day, it’s been bothering him immensely.

That thing is always lurking nearby, staring coldly with its dead eyes at him and Lu Sisi.

With this ghost ever-present, Chen Yan couldn’t bring himself to get intimate with Lu Sisi.

They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, and Lu Sisi is young and beautiful, gentle and obedient, of course Chen Yan wouldn’t mind!

But with the ghost standing nearby, Chen Yan really couldn’t make any moves.

Imagine, getting cozy with your wife with a ghost lady standing at the bedside, watching you coldly...

With that thought, Chen Yan suddenly had an idea, "Come with me."

"Huh?" Lu Sisi was caught off guard.

But then, Chen Yan dragged Lu Sisi to the garage, started the car, and the two left.

As the car drove further away from the villa yard, the ghost seemed to chase after for a while, but disappeared after it reached about ten meters outside the villa, perhaps due to insufficient Primordial Qi to sustain it, cutting off like a power outage.

Chen Yan drove all the way, Lu Sisi was initially puzzled but watched as Chen Yan quickly drove two streets over, stopping in front of a luxurious hotel nearby, and her face blushed.

"Let’s go." Chen Yan parked, pulled Lu Sisi out of the car, went to the front desk to check in, and opened a room.

"We...," Lu Sisi asked quietly, confused, "Isn’t going home better? Why come outside?"

"Sometimes you need a change of environment for freshness." Chen Yan replied casually, making Lu Sisi’s face blush even more.

But she didn’t argue with any of Chen Yan’s decisions, following him obediently into the hotel room.

Once inside, Chen Yan carefully looked around, not seeing any trace of the ghost.

Of course, Chen Yan brought Lu Sisi to the hotel, not just for that purpose—well, not "just" for that.

Chen Yan asked Lu Sisi to take a shower first, using a random excuse, saying he needed to go downstairs to the supermarket for snacks, and Lu Sisi didn’t ask further.

Leaving Lu Sisi in the hotel room, Chen Yan quickly slipped out, drove back to the neighborhood, and returned to the villa courtyard.

He pretended to walk in casually, scanning around, and saw Gui Geng sitting near the array’s focal point.

The old turtle was holding a phone, already skilled at using it to read novels.

But then, Chen Yan’s gaze froze!

Right behind the old turtle, the ghost stood quietly, with its gaze also fixed on the phone screen, silently watching.

As Chen Yan walked in, the ghost shot him a cold glare, clearly carrying hints of dissatisfaction and anger.

Chen Yan pretended not to see, while Gui Geng immediately stood up, "Young master, why are you back?"

"Oh, just came to pick up some stuff."

Chen Yan answered casually, walked straight into the villa.

He quickly went upstairs, grabbed two pieces of underwear from the closet and packed them, rushing back downstairs.

As Chen Yan did all this, the ghost kept following him, glaring at him with eyes full of resentment.

Chen Yan acted completely unaware, quickly left the villa, entered the garage, started the car, and left.

Hmm, confirmed!

This ghost can’t leave the courtyard at home!!

The Spirit Gathering Array in the yard makes the Primordial Qi dense, allowing the ghost to exist only in this environment.
