Floating to your side (27)
In the end, although the family was defeated, they lied to Wen Ting when they left, saying that they had tortured his childhood sweetheart to death in various ways. As a result, Wen Ting lived in guilt and pain for the rest of his life. In the end, he chose to jump into the same well and turned into a wandering soul filled with evil spirit.
As Shen Tang recalled and looked at Wen Ting at this moment, he regretted using that tool. Although people are willing to reincarnate, the price they paid is not small.
"Master Wen, who are you waiting for here?" The young masters who were on good terms with Wen Ting came to his side and looked at him with a teasing look, "Let us guess, is it your beautiful fiancée?"
"Bah, stop talking nonsense," Wen Ting opened the folding fan in his hand and hit the back of these people's hands. The young man who should have been happy now had a cold face, as if there was nothing to make him happy.
The young man stood in front of a house. Although Shen Tang was watching from the side, she was very familiar with this place.
This is the Zhu family, and it is also where the flesh body she created originally lived.
It seems that even if it wasn't her, what should have happened in the past would still have happened. Even if she hadn't fabricated that fake Miss Zhu, Wen Ting would still have found a woman to be friends with.
The tragedy that followed had not happened during this period, and the current Miss Zhu was not fake. There would not be another Taoist priest who would accuse her of having problems out of thin air, right? Shen Tang hurried to the door, wanting to see Miss Zhu's appearance clearly. However, when Miss Zhu really walked to the door, she froze in her place again, staring blankly at the familiar face.
Liu Ling's soul came to Miss Zhu's body.
Shen Tang looked at that face in a complicated way, and couldn't say anything for a while. Wasn't this too coincidental? If Liu Ling's soul was attached to the body of this young lady of the Zhu family, then she would inevitably be physically destroyed afterwards. After all, if her body was not destroyed, her soul could not be taken away.
"Master, look who's coming out!"
As soon as Miss Zhu arrived at the door of her house, a group of young men waiting at the door of Wen Ting's house began to tease her crazily. However, Wen Ting remained calm and just nodded indifferently at Miss Zhu who was walking out in front of him.
"A Ting, you're here!" Miss Zhu was about to dive into someone's arms like a little swallow, but Wen Ting dodged to the side and said with cold eyes, "Miss Zhu, please call me Master Wen. This Master remembers that we are not that familiar with each other."
Shen Tang found it hilarious to see Wen Ting acting like a big shot. When did this guy start to act like this? It was totally different from his previous personality.
She couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle. At the same time, Wen Ting's eyes unconsciously moved to her. His dark eyes under his curled eyelashes stared at her face without turning away. Then the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his voice was as warm as jade, "Are you laughing at me?"
"If I don't laugh at you, would I laugh at them? I've never seen you pretending like this before." Shen Tang couldn't hold it in any longer after a long time and couldn't help but say what she was thinking. However, as soon as she said it, her soul froze in place and she squinted her eyes at him.
"That's not right, who are you talking to?" Shen Tang gradually had a bad feeling. Could it be that this person was talking to her just now?
"If I don't tell you, should I tell them?" The young man said something similar to what Shen Tang had just said with an innocent face.
Shen Tang:......
It's over, what's going on?
"Can you see me?" Shen Tang continued to ask without giving up, wishing he could stick his whole face in front of Wen Ting to force her to say no, but the other party still nodded obediently.
"I can see you."
Shen Tang finally gave up. She really suspected that this was retribution. Before, she was the one who could see Wen Ting and others, but now it was Wen Ting's turn to see her.
In order to avoid revealing any unnecessary information, she immediately shut up and ignored Wen Ting. As long as she treated Wen Ting as air, this guy would have to talk to a living person honestly.
"Master Wen, who were you talking to just now? Why are you talking so weird?" A young man looked at Wen Ting's delicate neck and saw a red spot gradually spreading. The red spot extended from the neck to the face and the tips of the ears. He felt something was even more wrong!
Could this person be...the iron tree that has blossomed?
"I seem to have fallen in love with a woman at first sight," Wen Ting coughed lightly, closed his eyes and stood there for a long time before uttering a word.
A woman? Isn't it just the Miss Zhu here? Is Mr. Wen pretending? He said he fell in love with a woman at first sight at the gate of the Zhu family. Who else could it be but Miss Zhu?
"Young Master, we all know about your relationship with Miss Zhu. Is it necessary to keep emphasizing it?" The young man next to Wen Ting said bitterly, and Miss Zhu, who was not far away, thought that those words were a confession to herself and blushed.
"We got engaged a long time ago, but it's too embarrassing to say this," the woman lowered her head slightly, wanting to reach out and hold Wen Ting's hand, but he just shook his hand away, not paying any attention to the reaction of the woman next to him.
Wen Ting, who had subconsciously embarrassed Miss Zhu, immediately reacted and didn't know how to explain to her. Finally, seeing that she was about to cry, he said hesitantly, "Sorry, I have someone I love."
"You are talking nonsense. You clearly don't have a new lover! After all, we have been childhood sweethearts for many years. Do I bother you so much?"
Shen Tang looked at Miss Zhu who was talking to Liu Ling with her face up to her, and his expression became more complicated. It was as if a very familiar person suddenly appeared on the stage one day to sing a play, and the play was a sad one.
"I don't hate you, but I can't have that kind of feeling towards you either." Wen Ting was silent for a while, and finally said what he had been hiding in his heart, "Somehow I thought we should follow the path paved by the older generation, but when I really had to walk on it, I found that I still couldn't do it."
"Miss Zhu, I'm sorry." Wen Ting's tone was calm. Even though the girl next to him was crying, he did not make any unnecessary reaction. Instead, after distancing himself from the other person, he looked towards Shen Tang's position with eager eyes.
"Don't look at me, I don't know anything!"
Shen Tang looked at Wen Ting and the crying Miss Zhu who was leaning against Liu Ling's face with a slightly numb look in his eyes. Wen Ting didn't like this little childhood sweetheart of the Zhu family, so naturally he wouldn't have any feelings for her, and there wouldn't be any subsequent developments. Even if Miss Zhu was a real person now, but the two had no feelings, the path to death would not have been triggered at all!
Could it be that I have to find a body to deceive people again, just like I did last time to complete the mission?
“It’s not difficult to solve this problem.”
Just when Shen Tang was worried, the ball of light that she hadn't seen for a long time suddenly came to Shen Tang's side. She was very familiar with that lazy voice. As soon as the words came out, Shen Tang's eyes immediately sank.
"Master System, why are you here?" Her tone was not good. She was already doubtful about this quick-travel game. Now the Master System appeared in this small world. How could she not suspect that he had some ulterior motives?
"Hey, don't be so ruthless. Aren't you still worried about the souls in this world? I'm here to help you, and you treat me like this?" The ball of light flickered and jumped beside Shen Tang. "You are a smart person. I also expected what you guessed. But these questions cannot be answered by me alone."
"It won't be too late for you to ask us when that kid comes back," the general system said with interest, and temporarily blocked the questions that Shen Tang wanted to ask.
She pursed her lips slightly and looked up at the beam of light beside her. "Then I will trust you one last time. What exactly are you here for this time?"
"Didn't I tell you that I'm here to help you?" The ball of light gradually floated to Miss Zhu's body, where Liu Ling's soul was. "This person's soul must be brought back, otherwise this small world will be unstable. I also took into account your relationship with him. How about this? I will seal her soul temporarily, and you will take over her body. But after this mission is completed, you must hand over the props you found in the previous world to me."
Before Shen Tang could react to the props in the previous world mentioned by the master system, the light had already approached Miss Zhu. Miss Zhu, who was originally in tears, suddenly stood still and her eyelids closed heavily. Shen Tang glanced at the girl in front of him. Liu Ling's soul had already fallen asleep. She had no choice but to control her body as the master system said and enter Miss Zhu's body.
After entering Miss Zhu's body, Shen Tang couldn't help but mutter, "Even if I use her body now, Wen Ting only has the memory of this afterlife passage. It's hard to say whether he will like me."
The general system seemed to have heard something funny, "If he doesn't like you, then my work as the general system is in vain."
"What do you mean?" When the girl, who had regained control of her body, looked up at the light and asked, the other party had already disappeared.
Shen Tang stared blankly in the direction where the ball of light disappeared. What this meant was that Wen Ting... no, to be precise, Li Jin also liked her?
She quickly shook her head and dismissed the idea. How could it be possible? Even if she met the same person, Li Jin was still a machine, how could he have human emotions?
"Ms. Zhu, I apologize to you on his behalf. This guy has always been tactless with his words. We didn't notice when he had someone in his heart. Don't take his words to heart." Shen Tang was still in a daze, but the person next to Wen Ting had already apologized to Shen Tang on his behalf. "We will take this tactless boy away first. Miss Zhu, please leave slowly!"
Shen Tang came back to his senses and smiled slowly at Wen Ting and his group, "If that's the case, then you guys can leave. I'll walk slowly by myself."
Wen Ting couldn't help but frown as he listened to her words. Just when everyone around him thought he was going to abandon her and leave, he walked up to the young lady of the Zhu family, looked her up and down, his expression full of confusion.
