As a fake half-demon, Yue Jiuling feels that living in the human realm is actually pretty good. However, this is only true if she can retrieve her original body and separated soul. There's no c...
"What's going on? Who is it?!"
As soon as Feng Meng was woken up, he immediately got up, but just as he was about to ask where Yue Jiuli was, Yue Jiuli immediately covered his mouth.
In the darkness, Feng Meng could see Yue Jiuli because of her previous spell, though not very clearly. However, when Yue Jiuli covered his mouth, he immediately understood her meaning.
Yue Jiuli did this simply to prevent Feng Meng from exposing her, so Feng Meng cleverly sat still on the bed and quickly pressed the call button.
"What's wrong? Patient, what's wrong with you?"
Because they had already heard some noise, a nurse came into the ward very quickly.
'Pat~'
When the nurse entered the ward, she turned on the light. Seeing the broken cup on the floor, she assumed that Feng Meng had broken it, so she said, "Oh dear, how did you break the cup? Luckily you didn't get out of bed, otherwise it would have been troublesome if you had stepped on it. You have to be careful."
Feng Meng had no idea who broke the cup, and he couldn't very well admit that he had broken it, so he sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the broken glass on the floor, feeling a bit dazed.
After Yue Jiuli saw the lizard spirit hide to the side because the nurse came in, she secretly said to Feng Meng, "Just say you don't know how the cup broke, and that you were woken up by the noise. Quick, just say you suspect someone broke into your room."
Upon hearing Yue Jiuli's instructions, Feng Meng pretended to be a little more awake. He said somewhat fearfully, "I... actually, I didn't break this cup. I was also woken up by the noise. Nurse, nurse, I suspect someone has entered my room. Otherwise, why would something be broken?"
"Who else could it be? There's no one here who's overthinking this, are you? Or are you still half asleep?"
The nurse had already picked up a broom and swept up the broken glass. She said with a bit of a laugh, "I think you were just half asleep when you got up to get a drink of water and broke the cup, or you were sleepwalking. How did anyone get in here? You must have been half asleep."
Actually, Feng Meng had already guessed that the nurse didn't believe him. After all, the room was so small that it was easy to see everything as soon as you entered, and the bathroom door was open. If someone had come in, they would have seen it already. However, Feng Meng still pretended to be very scared and said, "No, no, I have never sleepwalked, and I really don't have the habit of getting up to drink water. I definitely didn't break this."
"Then tell me who broke it? There are only the two of us here, sir. Don't be so paranoid. We have some patients who keep saying our hospital is unclean, but nothing has ever happened to us."
The nurse still didn't believe Feng Meng. She even thought that Feng Meng probably broke the cup and didn't want to pay for it, because the cup was provided by the hospital for their use, and they would have to pay for it if it was damaged.
"Oh, stop being so suspicious. This cup only cost a few dollars, it's not expensive. Go to sleep early, goodnight~"
The nurse swept up the broken glass on the floor, then turned off the lights and closed the door for Feng Meng before leaving.
After seeing the nurse leave, the lizard spirit came out again. However, because Feng Meng was frightened, he was not sleepy at the moment. So after watching Feng Meng for a while, the lizard jumped out of the window and left the ward.
"Tsk~ They're finally gone. Feng Meng, I'd say this time it really was a revenge killing."
After Yue Jiuli saw the lizard spirit leave, she told Feng Meng what had just happened.
"What? No way? The one who came to kill me is a lizard demon? What's going on? I've never had a grudge against lizards!"
Upon hearing that a lizard demon had tried to kill him, Feng Meng was immediately bewildered, because he couldn't understand why a monster would try to kill him, especially a lizard demon.
"Hey sis, if it didn't kill me today, do you think it'll come back tomorrow? Oh no, oh no, that invisible lizard demon, what did I do to offend it?"
"That's a question you'll have to ask yourself. How would I know?"
Yue Jiuli and Feng Meng sat side by side on the bed. She reached out and touched the bamboo growing in the water glass next to the bed and said, "Think it over carefully and see if you really have a grudge against them."
