"What do I have to be so eager for? No, no!" Zhong Yan naturally refused to admit her true feelings, putting on a domineering and unreasonable act, waving her hands repeatedly.
"You..." Jiang Xiaochen was speechless. This silly girl's arrogant attitude was truly something else. However, he didn't see anything wrong with it; on the contrary, he found it quite attractive.
No one in his life has ever dared to speak to him like that.
When Zhong Yan met his gaze, which was filled with a hint of doting affection, she felt as if her little secret had been exposed, and she felt terrible and a little embarrassed.
Therefore, he took off running.
Unexpectedly, before they had gone far, several people rushed over from the playground, shouting and banging on something in the distance, as if they had provoked something unclean.
Zhong Yan's expression changed, and she quickly went to meet her.
"Sun Yang, what are you doing!"
"There's a ghost, there's a ghost!" Sun Yang seemed not to hear her voice at all, instead looking up at what was in front of him, his expression dazed.
"You monster, get out of my way!" Zhong Yan pulled the person behind her, her face full of protection. "You dare to cause trouble in broad daylight? Who gave you the guts?"
"Pure Yin Body." A child's voice rang out in the air, sounding crisp and clear, like that of a two- or three-year-old child. In reality, they were only the size of infants, but their intelligence was nothing like that of an infant.
Zhong Yan's expression changed slightly; it was an infant spirit.
Upon closer inspection, there were more than a dozen children of similar size surrounding them, encircling them. The scene was not pleasant; each child was pale-faced, covered in blood, and had two long, sharp teeth protruding, making them look extremely horrifying.
Jiang Xiaochen instinctively shielded her behind him, his expression tense. He began to regret it, thinking that perhaps he shouldn't have involved her. No matter how capable Zhong Yan was, she was still just a little girl.
"A body of pure Yin, this is a delicacy! My friends, as long as we eat her, we will achieve our goal. Quick, charge!"
"Yes, if you eat her, you can achieve enlightenment."
"Eat her! Eat her!"
"What, you have the guts to shout but not the guts to eat?" Zhong Yan chuckled, her expression relaxed and cheerful: "Heh, it seems you're not so fearless after all. If you're afraid, why do you still cause trouble?"
By the end, her face had darkened.
The ghost doll tugged at her bellyband, looking somewhat disgusted: "Sister, we're only doing this to give you face, wanting to save it for last. If you know what's good for you, get out of here."
Zhong Yan stared coldly at the ghost doll who was speaking to her, with no intention of backing down: "These people are of no use to you, why bother making things difficult for them?"
Even if Sun Yang and his friends are not very good, they are at most just good at fooling around, far from being able to summon ghosts. Who sent these ghost dolls and what do they want to do?
Furthermore, what connection does the case Jiang Xiaochen mentioned have with these infant spirits?
Those women...
Zhong Yan's gaze swept over them, as if trying to discern something. Suddenly, her eyes fixed on one of the ghost dolls, and her tone turned slightly somber: "Where's Wang Yan? What have you done to Teacher Wang!"
