"I am the Ashes."
The room fell silent instantly, and the computer tower was more than ten times louder than usual.
Shen Muqing couldn't find her voice, "Who did you say you were?"
"Cangjin, you're the one who gave me this name, aren't you?"
Cang Jin pulled her down, looked at her at eye level, and rubbed her neck back and forth with his cool hand.
Shen Muqing was now completely bewildered. Who did he say he was? Cang Jin? Could a character from a comic book really step out of the story?
"Still not familiar? I suppose you drew this whole person out of you, my dear writer."
"You've arranged an easy death for me."
He watched as Shen Muqing's expression slowly turned to fear as he spoke, his pupils shrinking and his body trembling.
“Speak clearly.”
"You...you..."
Shen Muqing didn't know what to say. She looked him over carefully, and then, as if thinking of something, she hurriedly moved closer to him, almost throwing herself at him. She brushed aside his long hair, and when she saw the red mark behind him, she believed him nine-tenths of the time.
The girl's sudden movement was ignored by Cang Jin, but his body unconsciously moved closer and closer to Shen Muqing.
"Is it confirmed, Qingqing?"
"Um?"
Cang Jin half-embraced her, his long hair falling onto her collarbone, his thin lips constantly breathing into her ear.
What do you want?
"Of course, it's a life for a life."
His devilish whisper was too much for Shen Muqing to bear; she clung to him tightly, her arms climbing up his neck.
"Even if I didn't do anything special, I still put in a lot of effort. After all, I created you. You can't be so ungrateful. Doesn't your conscience hurt?"
"But I'm the villain."
Shen Muqing hugged his neck even tighter, pleading, "You can't kill me, please let me go."
Her action seemed to please Cang Jin; knowing he was in danger, she still dared to hug him.
"I can spare your life."
Cang Jin hugged her back, his palms resting on her delicate shoulder blades, which were trembling slightly because of him. He was very satisfied.
"I'll do anything you want, just don't kill me. I'll be your slave."
She's so obsequious to complete this task, it's unbelievable. If anyone dares to say she's unprofessional, she'll be the first to stand up and slap them.
"Anything is fine?" Cang Jin raised an eyebrow, his long, slender hand picking up her hair and smelling it.
"Yes, as long as you don't kill me, you can do whatever you want."
Shen Muqing lifted her small face, which was red from crying, and looked at him with teary eyes.
Now, kiss me.
?
Shen Muqing was stunned for a moment. What kind of request was this?
Cang Jin's eyes, which held a hint of anger but weren't imposing, were fixed on her, as if asking why she hadn't kissed him yet, and whether she wanted to die.
Without saying a word, Shen Muqing tilted her head up and kissed his left cheek. His face and hand were both very cold; he truly was a ghost.
Is this okay?
Tears wet her eyelashes, and her words had a slightly nasal tone, sounding soft and sweet.
"not enough."
Shen Muqing thought he was unhappy that she had only kissed one side, so she also gave him a quick kiss on the right cheek.
"How about this?"
What do you think?
Cang Jin looked at the clueless woman in front of him and thought she was too stupid to be anything but. He grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up, then lowered his head and finally kissed her wet little mouth.
He was in a good mood; this gave him even more pleasure than killing someone.
Shen Muqing's eyes widened. So this was what a kiss was like. So cool, so comfortable. She slightly opened her mouth.
Something cooler entered and intertwined with her warm tongue.
Cang Jin placed his other hand on her vicious waist, the sensation making him reluctant to leave, caressing her skin through her thin nightgown.
His eyes lit up with pleasure, clearly understanding her gesture of opening her mouth.
After a long while, Shen Muqing was finally released. She was panting, her eyes full of allure. "This should be okay, right?"
"I never married before I died, so as compensation, you must be my wife."
"Snap!"
What an utterly unreasonable demand!
"Disagree? Then I'll have no choice but to kill you."
As he spoke, Cang Jin's sword appeared beside him out of thin air, its tip pointing directly at Shen Muqing's throat.
"Wait! Who said I disagree? I'm more than willing."
"I am honored to marry you."
Shen Muqing gently raised her hand and pushed the sword backward, saying, "Husband, quickly put away your sword, it scared me."
It has to be said that Shen Muqing is very good at reading people's expressions. She threw herself into Cang Jin's arms and hugged his strong waist tightly. No matter what, it's better than death.
Moreover, the villain's looks and physique are impeccable; aside from the fact that he's not human, he's top-tier in every other way.
Cang Jin has been in this world for quite a while and knows what "husband" means, mainly thanks to Shen Muqing who watches videos online every day and plays them very loudly, making it difficult for him not to hear them.
"Qingqing is so good."
He held Shen Muqing in his arms, clearly very satisfied with her answer and actions.
Shen Muqing rolled his eyes where he couldn't see. Truth is right in front of you, you can't be disobedient.
On the bed, Cang Jin was already lying there openly, possessively holding Shen Muqing, saying, "Sleep."
After being frightened, Shen Muqing was no longer sleepy. Knowing that Cang Jin wouldn't kill her, she became bolder.
"Cang Jin, how did you get here?"
"I don't know, I was stabbed to death with a sword and that's it."
"Oh, have you seen your kind? They're here."
Shen Muqing awaited his answer, hoping he wouldn't tell her there was a second ghost besides him; her fragile heart couldn't take it.
"No, you're the only person I've seen here."
"That's good."
"Does Qingqing really want someone else?"
"No, no, no, I don't want that at all."
Having you as a pillar of support is enough; she can't handle anyone else.
She didn't sleep a wink all night. She was only awakened when the sunlight shone on her face. When she woke up, she saw the ancient-style man next to her. Her memories of last night came flooding back. It wasn't a dream. It was real.
Who would believe that a character he created, filled with such resentment after death, would come back to haunt him and force him to become his wife?
This is so wonderful, it could be made into another comic book.
"woke up?"
Cang Jin doesn't need to sleep at all; at most, he just closes his eyes to rest. So he knows as soon as Shen Muqing makes a move.
"Good morning!"
Shen Muqing greeted him with a grin, once again marveling at her own awesomeness for being able to draw such a devastatingly handsome face. How could she have been so heartless as to draw him to death?
Kiss me.
"Okay."
She dared not pause, fearing that if she slowed down, Cang Jin's sword would be pointed at her throat and kill her.
After a long struggle, Cang Jin finally let go of her, patted her hair, and said, "Not bad, you've improved."
"Of course, that's why you can't kill me, I'm very useful."
"Since it's so useful, then I'd like to trouble Qingqing to help me again."
Cang Jin's voice was hoarse, as if he was suppressing something, and his expression showed that he was in great pain.
