Chapter 3 Nighttime Threats

[System: Successfully reduced Shen Shilang’s fever, experience +8000]

[System: Congratulations on upgrading to level 3, level reward gold coins +500]

"What female ghost?" Su Jinshi complained as he went to the mall to buy another voice transmission box, "I already told you I'm not a female ghost."

As a result, I saw that the voice box turned gray again, and there was still the time for the next purchase on it.

Su Jinshi calculated that this voice transmission box actually has a 24-hour CD time each time it is used, and can only be used for one hour at a time.

"This is too bad!" Su Jinshi was so angry that he almost threw his phone.

At this time, another system message popped up on the screen.

[System: Upgrading your level and Shen Shilang's favorability can upgrade the mall, unlock the intermediate voice transmission box, and enjoy the level privilege of 20% off the purchase of primary goods. ]

Su Jinshi slid the screen down and found that there was indeed an intermediate voice transmission box with a locked mark on it. The screen was gray.

You need to upgrade the mall to unlock it.

Su Jinshi clicked it, and a prompt popped up: [Intermediate Voice Transmission Box, can last for 3 hours after one use, CD 12 hours, requires the mall level to reach level 3]

The mall is still at level 1 now, and Su Jinshi clicked on the mall level again.

[Mall level lv2, player level lv10 required, Shen Shilang's favorability 5. ]

[Mall level lv3, player level lv20 required, Shen Shilang's favorability 20. ]

"Well, there is still room for improvement." Su Jinshi curled her lips, "My level is easy to improve, but Shen Shilang's favorability is difficult to improve."

I still have 0 favorable impression of it.

Su Jinshi clicked on her avatar again. Now she is level 3.

Su Jinshi couldn't talk to Shen Shilang directly for the time being, so he could only poke Shen Shilang's face.

"Female ghost, is it really you? Was it you who gave me the medicine?" Shen Shilang asked to the air.

Su Jinshi poked Shen Shilang's face twice again.

It's me. It's me.

[System: Shen Shilang’s Favorability +1]

Su Jinshi blinked, she really wasn't seeing things!

It’s a pity that the system prompt has disappeared, otherwise she would have wanted to take a screenshot as a souvenir.

This was the first time Shen Shilang had a favorable impression of her! Shen Shilang frowned slightly, "Why did you suddenly stop talking?"

There were no servants in his room, and he had always been alone in the past, so he had long been accustomed to the quietness.

But for some reason, I missed the voice of that female ghost at this moment.

Speaking of which, her voice can be described as pleasant to the ear.

Su Jinshi saw that Shen Shilang was sweating and soaked because of the antipyretic medicine he took.

The clothes were stuck to his body by sweat, outlining the clear and perfect lines of Shen Shilang's muscles.

The strands of hair were slightly wet and seemed to be somewhat stuck to the face, which was really a bit rough.

Su Jinshi couldn't help but glance down...

Brother, you are really powerful!

Just as Su Jinshi was about to stretch out his evil little claws towards Shen Shilang, Shen Shilang's door was suddenly kicked open.

Then a man and a woman strode in arrogantly.

The people who came were Wei Zhaoxian’s youngest son Wei Jianming and Wei Zhaoxian’s daughter Wei Ruyan.

Shen Shilang quickly wrapped himself in the quilt and looked at them with a frown.

"You boy, you haven't been beaten enough yet? How dare you look at my sister like that!" Wei Jianming raised his hand and was about to whip Shen Shilang.

Wei Ruyan stopped him and said, "Second brother, father will be back tomorrow. Don't hurt him too much or he will notice."

"Humph!" Wei Jianming finally put down his whipping hand, "I'll spare you tonight!"

Wei Jianming pointed at Shen Shilang's face and said, "You are a cousin who came out of nowhere and came to my house. You should be grateful for my father's protection! You even dared to covet my sister. Beating you is too light!"

Wei Jianming looked Shen Shilang up and down, "How dare you sit down and talk to us! Get up!"

As he said that, Wei Jianming was about to pull Shen Shilang's clothes and pull him up.

Shen Shilang stopped Wei Jianming's actions with one sentence, "When did I covet Miss Wei?"

Wei Jianming sneered, "You stare at my sister every day, and you still dare to quibble?"

Shen Shilang was speechless for a few breaths after hearing what Wei Jianming said, and then he said, "I only accidentally ran into Miss Wei once a few days ago, so how can I look at her directly every day? In comparison, I can look at you directly every day. According to what you said, I should covet you more."

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

"Okay, you still dare to quibble!" Wei Jianming was furious.

Shen Shilang said coldly: "I have never had the slightest bit of romantic feelings towards Miss Wei."

Who would like to be held down and whipped by servants for no reason?

He's not a masochist.

The expression and tone of Shen Shilang's voice when he said this clearly showed that he, Shen Shilang, looked down upon Wei Ruyan at all.

Wei Ruyan blushed.

This poor person, who lived in his house and whose expenses were all provided by the Wei family, actually despised her and looked down on her? How dare he! Wei Ruyan was so angry that she raised her hand and swung it at Shen Shilang's face.

Shen Shilang grabbed Wei Ruyan's wrist and said, "General Wei will be back home tomorrow. You don't want him to see the wound on my face, do you?"

"You..." Wei Ruyan froze for a moment.

Shen Shilang let go of her wrist and said, "You came here tonight just to warn me not to let General Wei know tomorrow that you whipped me today?"

"It's good that you know." Wei Jianming was so distracted by Shen Shilang's words that he forgot to worry about whether Shen Shilang should stand or sit to talk. He threatened Shen Shilang, "Father will be back home tomorrow, so you better watch your mouth! Don't think that your father will be able to support you just because he's back!"

Wei Ruyan threatened with a proud look on her face, "Even if father comes back, he will only be at home for two days at most. If you dare to complain to father, we will not forgive you after he leaves!"

"If you dare to complain to father, I will beat you three times a day in the future. If you are tired of living, go and complain to father!" Wei Jianming said viciously.

Shen Shilang exhaled deeply and said, "I won't tell you."

Seeing the smug looks on the two men's faces, he thought Shen Shilang was afraid of their threats.

Shen Shilang said coldly: "I don't say it, not because I'm afraid of you. It's because General Wei is stationed at the border, serving the country and the people. He is worried enough about his country and the world, and it's really wrong to cause trouble for him with such a trivial matter at home."

"Hmph!" Wei Jianming just couldn't stand Shen Shilang acting like a gentleman all day long.

She was clearly nothing and was still supported by his family, but she pretended to be innocent. It really disgusted him! "Ruyan, don't listen to his nonsense. Let's go." Wei Jianming pulled Wei Ruyan away.

Su Jinshi also heard that Shen Shilang's injuries were caused by Wei Ruyan and Wei Jianming.

The two of them almost killed Shen Shilang!

If she hadn't come back in time and given Shen Shilang medicine, Shen Shilang would have died! Su Jinshi was so angry that she couldn't even treat this as a game.

She slid the screen and followed Wei Jianming and Wei Ruyan out.
