Chapter 709 Ghost Lantern (8)

The wind came from somewhere, making the branches sway.

Rustling.

Yun Ci felt that there was a different scent in the floral fragrance, which woke her up from her deep sleep.

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Gui Deng sitting next to her, staring at her sleeping face.

"...?"

"Sorry, did I wake you up?"

"I woke up on my own." Yun Ci rubbed her eyes, took the hand that Gui Deng extended, and sat up with the help, "Are you done with your work?"

"Ah, the work is done."

Yun Ci looked at Gui Deng's face and said, "You didn't come here without taking a rest."

"You still need to take a break." Gui Deng looked at Yun Ci's face as it approached him, and moved his fingers slightly. "You don't look very energetic."

"Ah, there was a ghost causing trouble last night." Yun Ci leaned her head against Gui Deng and said, "A ghost fell in love with a human."

"Humans... let's hope they can be reunited in hell soon."

"Too bad, they had other ideas."

People want to help their loved ones prolong their lives, so they turn to the Book of Life and Death.

The ghost messenger was usually very hardworking, and therefore was trusted by the King of Hell. If it weren't for the clever little ghost following the King of Hell, he would have succeeded.

The Book of Life and Death is in my hands, all that’s left is to tick off my name.

"Such an unprofessional jailer." Gui Deng's face was gloomy, and he raised his hand and moved his fingers. "It turns out that he still needs training."

Yun Ci looked at Gui Deng's face and couldn't help but poke the corner of his mouth.

Gui Deng paused: "?"

"I just feel that your mouth is very cute." Looks like it's very kissable.

Gui Deng was helpless and said that he was busy with important matters and suddenly came here.

If you are in a relationship, you should move your face closer to her and let her experience for herself whether your mouth is cute or not.

Thinking of this, Gui Deng did it.

He pressed his big palm on the back of Yun Ci's neck with a strong force and leaned down.

Pointy teeth are cute.

Cold thin lips are also very kissable.

It’s just that my boyfriend is a little overbearing.

Yun Ci breathed rapidly, her lips were a little too red.

She leaned weakly against Gui Deng's chest, couldn't help licking her lips, and raised her hand to grab half of Gui Deng's collar.

“It feels good—”

Hoshigaki's body fell down, crushing a field of red spider lilies that had no time to dodge.

The red petals scattered and fluttered, overlapping with the black of his clothes.

Yun Ci's long hair fell along her body and fell on Gui Deng's body.

"Come again——"

*

"——Is there a human head inside?" Gui Deng lifted the cloth covering Sao Qing Niang and met the sight of the human head inside which had turned into a skeleton.

"Yeah, they can still play like this."

Yun Ci snapped her fingers, and several "Sunny Dolls" floated up, surrounding her and Gui Deng, singing as they floated.

Ordinary nursery rhymes were sung by them in strange tones.

Yun Ci deliberately lowered her voice and whispered in Gui Deng's ear: "If you can't guess who is behind you, your head will go in there."

Gui Deng wouldn't be scared, but he is a ghost now and will not die. What would happen if his head went in there?

Just imagine, the head is wrapped in cloth, unable to break free, and the surroundings are still dark...

"Perhaps this would also be a good torture method."

As expected of a workaholic, he can never let go of work.

Yunci and Guideng spent half a day in the warehouse, and dinner was still prepared by the two ghosts together - the miso soup made by Guideng tasted unexpectedly good.

It’s worthy of being called Ghost Lantern.

"Ghost light."

"Ok?"

"Would you like to stay here tonight?"

Gui Deng paused with the teacup in his hand and glanced around the Yunci house, which had only one bedroom.

Yun Ci saw what Gui Deng wanted to say: "Two beds."

She was so straightforward that Gui Deng didn't know what to say.

"You haven't rested well. It's too tiring to go back and forth. It's better to have a good rest before leaving. This way I will feel more at ease."

"Then I'll be polite and bother you for a little while longer."

"Don't be so polite to me. We are boyfriend and girlfriend now. It would be awkward if you are too polite."

Yun Ci took Gui Deng into the bedroom. Because there was a separate dressing room and bathroom, there were only two beds in the bedroom.

Originally there was one placed in the center area, but later another was added and they were all placed against the wall.

The head of the bed is facing the window, with a small table and cabinet in the middle.

Yunci likes to sleep in a big bed, so the two beds are 2x2 in size, taking up most of the room.

"The bathroom is over here. As for clothes, I bought some for you when I was shopping earlier. Wear this today."

This is the first time that Kizuna has tried on a navy blue robe, but it suits him quite well.

but--

Yun Ci listened to the sound of water splashing in the bathroom and surprisingly did not feel nervous.

She took out the calming incense, placed it at the bedside and lit it.

When Gui Deng came back, the bedroom was already filled with fragrance, and the lights inside were dim, creating a comfortable light.

A few willow leaves swirled through Gui Deng's hair, taking away the wetness.

Kitsune stopped drying his hair and put the towel back in place.

"Do you want to rest now?"

"I have to go wash up too. If you're tired, just get into bed first."

Gui Deng looked at Yun Ci's leaving back and raised his hand to pinch his eyebrows.

"It also……"

Too relaxing, huh?

Why do I feel like I've suddenly entered old married couple mode?

Yun Ci is really too calm.

I never blushed.

It’s not that being calm is bad, it’s just…

Gui Deng sat on the bed, looking at Yun Ci's bed opposite him, pinching his chin and falling into deep thought.

This time, the sound of water in the bathroom lasted for a long time before Yun Ci slowly walked out, still covered in the residual warmth of the hot water.

This time she only wore a nightgown, still in green.

As she walked, her smooth calves were exposed. She was wearing slippers and threw herself on the bed with two kicks of her feet. The hem of her nightgown moved up a little.

Gui Deng shifted his gaze away and looked back at Yun Ci's face.

"Tired?"

Yun Ci turned sideways and looked at Gui Deng who was sitting there: "It's actually not bad. I'm a little excited that you're staying here."

She made a small arc with her fingers.

Gui Deng also turned sideways and lay down, propping up his head to look at her: "Excited?"

"Yes, this is the first time a man has stayed in my room." Yun Ci said, "Bai Ze also stayed in my house after getting drunk before, but I always made a bed for him in the living room. If he knew about this, he would probably come to trouble you again."

Gui Deng clicked his tongue. When he heard this name, his fists started itching and he really wanted to punch something.

"At this time, mentioning another man's name -" He looked at Yun Ci, "It would make men feel frustrated."

"Eh? But we were just chatting, not doing anything——"

"doing what?"

"Do something that requires a desire to win."

"No matter which aspect, I definitely beat that guy."

"This... I don't know." Yun Ci said deliberately, "After all, I haven't witnessed it with my own eyes."
