Chapter 556

Wen Xin said, "He cares about the fragments of the soul, but it doesn't seem to be love."

It's more like an inability to protect her.

Wen Xin was also puzzled as to why ghosts and gods would protect her fragments of soul.

Xiao Jin thought to herself: Because of love!

Given the male supporting character's love-struck mind, even if the fragment of his soul wasn't the complete owner, he would instinctively protect her and not let anyone hurt her.

Knock knock knock

"Madam, are you awake?"

Mo'er asked softly from outside the door.

Wen Xin came to her senses. "You're awake."

"Then shall we servants come in to serve you?"

"Okay, sure."

Mo'er led a group of beautiful maids in.

Under the bright daylight, Wen Xin could see their unusual behavior more clearly.

Their flowing robes and every movement were pleasing to the eye, but... oh dear, the maids' footsteps on the ground felt weightless.

And while they are beautiful, the smiles on their faces are exactly the same, like the Mona Lisa's smile in a painting, never changing its curve.

It's really weird to think about.

Wen Xin's brow twitched, a surge of fear stemming from the fragments of her soul welled up inside her, making her feel limp and weak on the bed.

Yes, the fragment of her soul felt very guilty towards the ghosts and non-human creatures in the old house, but that doesn't mean she wasn't afraid of them anymore.

It would be amazing if a timid girl who has always believed in science could suddenly face a large group of ghosts and monsters without being afraid.

And this instinct, Wen Xin inherited it after fusing with the soul fragments... What a pain!

She pinched her palm to keep herself from shrinking back under the covers and shivering.

What's so scary about ghosts and monsters?

The human heart is the most terrifying thing.

Don't be afraid, don't be afraid.

Wen Xin silently comforted herself, trying to suppress this instinct.

After all, she not only lives in a haunted house now, but also has a ghostly husband, so being afraid of ghosts all the time isn't a good thing.

Besides, at this point, she probably only knew that this was a strange old house, but she didn't know that there were ghosts.

Stay calm!

Isn't she just a delicate and innocent ghost bride?

Stay calm!

She can do it!

However, when Mo'er brought the clothes to help her change and touched her, Wen Xin still trembled reflexively.

"Madam, what's wrong?"

Mo'er asked with concern, "Are you sick?"

Humans are fragile, and humans without spiritual power are even more fragile.

Moreover, their young mistress looks delicate and frail, like a porcelain doll.

Wen Xin lowered her eyes and gently shook her head, "I'm fine."

She's just afraid of ghosts, sob sob sob. What kind of ridiculous character is this, a fragment of a soul?

Well, she doesn't know anything right now, she doesn't know anything at all.

Wen Xin tried hard to brainwash herself so that she wouldn't tremble when facing Mo'er and the others.

On the first day of marriage, the bride is supposed to wear red. Mo'er changed Wen Xin into a silver-red horse-face skirt, a crimson blouse, a necklace inlaid with jewels, and her hair was styled in a married woman's bun, adorned with luxurious pearls and jade.

Looking at her reflection in the bronze mirror, dressed in splendid attire, Wen Xin felt a sense of disbelief once again. Had she really not traveled to ancient times?

Time seems to have stood still in the old house, and everything retains its ancient traditions.

But Wen Xin now should be a girl who has always lived in modern society and is not very comfortable in these ancient costumes.

Because of her persona, she asked quietly, "Do I have to keep wearing Hanfu from now on?"

Mo'er paused for a moment, as if only then realizing that the customs and lifestyles outside were completely different from those inside the old house.

She asked, "Does Madam not like it?"

Wen Xin shook her head. "No, that's not it."

Mo'er said respectfully, "Butler Song has already ordered people to purchase clothes for outsiders, so please bear with Madam for the time being."

"I'm not wronged."

Wen Xin quickly replied, "It's just that I'm not used to it yet... I'll try my best to get used to it."

Soul Fragment was a cautious person. Even though she didn't marry into this place willingly, she was now in an unfamiliar place and didn't know what to do. Naturally, she didn't dare to make any demands, let alone cause trouble for others.

Mo'er smiled and said, "Madam doesn't need to deliberately get used to anything, nor does she need to wrong herself. The master has instructed that everyone in the old house should serve Madam with all their heart."

Wen Xin's hands, which were resting on her skirt, clenched involuntarily. She bit her lip nervously. "So... what do I need to do later?"

According to ancient tradition, the bride should serve tea to her elders on the second day after the wedding, right?

Moreover, she hasn't seen her husband since last night.

The girl felt uneasy and helpless at the thought of that incredibly handsome man in black robes.

Mo'er originally wanted to say that Madam didn't need to do anything, but she seemed to have suddenly received some order and was stunned.

"After breakfast, please come with me to a place, Madam."

Wen Xin nodded obediently, "Okay."

...

As soon as the door to the new house opened, Wen Xin saw the spacious courtyard outside, with its artificial hills and flowing water, clusters of flowers, and elegant and refined scenery, resembling the exquisite gardens of ancient noble families.

Well, you can't really say they're similar. This old house is a garden building that has existed for who knows how many years.

But what surprised Wen Xin was that this was not the largest courtyard of the old house, but also the main courtyard where the shrine was enshrined?

She remembered that in her previous life, Shang Xin did not live in the main courtyard, but in "Hengzhi Courtyard", which was not far from the main courtyard.

Why is her new house located in the main courtyard in this life?

Wen Xin recalled how her behavior last night differed from that of the fragments of her soul from her previous life... Well, it was quite surprising.

In my past life, I was unconscious until the morning of the next day when the fragments of my soul woke up.

Therefore, she didn't know whether ghosts or spirits had come to visit her in the bridal chamber; they probably hadn't.

so……

Wen Xin pondered for a moment. Could it be that her treatment had changed because she was awake when she was led into the bridal chamber last night and even saw the ghostly groom?

The butterfly flapped its wings, creating a different trajectory.

Wen Xin sighed inwardly, thinking that having no memory made things prone to trouble.

If she accidentally killed the lousy male lead, that would be one thing, but now she's living with ghosts and spirits?!

Well, how should I put it?

She hasn't been able to overcome her instinctive fear of ghosts from the fragments of her soul. Even though she felt guilty towards her ghostly husband in her past life, she was still afraid.

Look, her body is trembling unconsciously now, and she can barely hold back the tears in her eyes.

Hey, being a ghost bride with a fear-of-ghost persona in the supernatural world is really tough.

"lady?"

Seeing that the new lady was so timid and shy that she didn't even dare to go out, Mo'er couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

The young lady is exceptionally beautiful, with fair skin and delicate features. Her grape-like eyes are bright and clear, and she is as timid as a kitten, harmless, obedient, and endearing. Who wouldn't like her?

Most importantly, after so many brides, He finally won the favor of the gods and spirits, who awakened Him from His slumber.
