Eve looked at Minglei with interest and said, "They're just little gadgets, nothing shameful. Why do you have to hide it from others? In today's society, it's normal for you to like those things."
"No, do you know a lot about human society?" Ming Lei looked at Eve with despair, then looked under the bed. It seemed that Eve really found the treasures he had hidden.
"That's for sure." Eve replied disdainfully.
"Oh...don't tell my mother and Xiao Luo." Ming Lei sighed and sat on the chair.
"Don't worry, this is a secret between you and me." Eve said seriously.
In fact, Minglei’s secret is not a secret at all. It’s even a little funny to talk about it.
Minglei pulled out a large box from under the bed. The box was full of things that otakus liked, including comic books, photo albums of beautiful girls, action figures, game discs, and all kinds of other items.
In fact, Minglei is a very homely man. He doesn't like to go out. He just likes to stay at home, watch things that interest him, play games, watch anime and movies, and he is very leisurely.
In Minglei's opinion, being a homebody can be summed up in two words:
There is no better place than home!
Eat well, drink well and sleep well at home, everything is fine!
However, Minglei has always kept his preferences hidden very deeply, treating them as a little secret that belongs only to him.
Of course, Minglei always thought he had hidden it well, but in fact his mother Su Zhen had known for a long time that her son was a otaku, so Mingluo was kept in the dark and thought that his brother was a sunny and warm man.
"Idol photos? Is there one for me?" Eve was intrigued by these little things. In fact, she didn't look through Minglei's things, she just lied to him on purpose. She didn't expect that he would be so stupid as to confess.
"No, you're not an idol." Minglei answered honestly.
"What a shame." A trace of regret flashed across Eve's face. "But I'm an international superstar."
"Where's your secret?" Ming Lei quickly packed the box and put it back under the bed. He didn't want Eve to see more shameful things.
"Are you so anxious?" Eve smiled sweetly, her eyes curved, and a wonderful idea emerged in her mind, but this could only be realized after they were together.
Her eyes moved, reflecting Ming Lei's unkempt appearance in her beautiful pupils. She put away her smile and said seriously, "Let me reintroduce myself to you. My name is Eve, and I'm a spirit spirit rescued by Sister Ling. I don't have any spiritual power now, and I'm no different from an ordinary person."
"I've never seen an ordinary person coming in from the balcony on the 7th floor." Ming Lei couldn't help but interrupt.
"Can you please listen to me first? I like humans, and I want to live a peaceful life like humans, so I hope you can be my partner. In the future, we will live together and take care of each other. How about it?" Eve slowly finished the rest of her words.
Minglei was stunned. He looked at Eve seriously and felt that she was not joking.
He felt his heart beating rapidly, as if it was about to burst out of his chest.
These words are probably something a couple would say to each other, right? A bit like a marriage proposal?
Ming Lei took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and said, "What did you say after I asked you the secret?"
"Are you so anxious?" Eve was confused by the question and answered truthfully.
"Yes, that's it. I'm not in a hurry. I'm not very interested in your secret." After saying that, Ming Lei ran out as if he was escaping.
Minglei didn't know how to face Eve. They had only known each other for ten days, and he even felt extremely disgusted with her and had a very bad attitude towards her. How could such an outstanding woman be so blind to fall for him? Minglei didn't believe it.
In fact, Ming Lei didn't realize at this time that his opinion of Eve had already changed. He originally firmly believed that Eve was a scumbag who played with young men, but now he regarded her as an excellent woman, a woman he should not have.
Just when Ming Lei was having a headache about Eve, Su Zhen rushed back with Ye Zhihan and Ming Luo. In order to save time, they used their abilities to rush back home as soon as they got off the plane.
"Xiao Lei, where is your father?" As soon as Su Zhen entered the door, he went from room to room looking for Ming Xutao's last soul without even drinking a sip of water.
"He's in Mingluo's room." Minglei replied.
After changing their shoes, Ming Luo and Ye Zhihan rushed into the room to check on the condition of Ming Xutao's last soul.
Ming Lei didn't know enough about these strange events, and he didn't understand why everyone was in such a hurry. He grabbed Ming Luo and asked, "What's going on? Are you in such a hurry to install missiles on your legs?"
"Brother, our dad has always been with us, but he is in the form of a soul and we can't see him. If dad's soul dissipates this time, we will never see him again!" Mingluo explained hurriedly, and then she pulled Minglei into the house.
Ming Lei didn't dare look at Eve leaning on the bed. He just stared at the translucent soul intently. If Ming Luo said that, could Dad really come back? A glimmer of hope ignited in Ming Lei's heart.
Although the last soul has been wandering for too long, fortunately it has not dissipated yet, and there is still a possibility of filling the soul crack. Su Zhen saw Ming Xutao, whose outline was only visible and even his face could not be seen clearly. In the blink of an eye, tears fell. She did not say anything, but her hands kept moving, continuously injecting spiritual power into Ming Xutao's soul.
As a ghost, Su Zhen's spiritual power is the most nourishing to the soul.
"Sister Ling, don't do this!" Ye Zhihan pulled Su Zhen up.
Just like Eve, Su Zhen has lived in the human world for more than 20 years, and the spiritual power in her body has been used up almost completely, but she is still constantly draining herself to retain Ming Xutao's soul. This draining of herself again and again is causing great harm to Su Zhen's body.
