Floating to your side (4)

Shen Tang didn't sleep well this time. She felt cold all over, as if something was pressing on her and making it hard for her to breathe. It wasn't until she opened her eyes again that Shen Tang figured out the source of the coldness.

The young man in a blue brocade robe with fine white elephant patterns was leaning quietly against her waist with his eyes closed. His long black hair was scattered on the side of Shen Tang's hand, and there was a small mole on the tip of his nose on his cold pale face. His long curly eyelashes suddenly trembled slightly, as if he felt Shen Tang's movements, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Wen Ting and Shen Tang stared at each other, with Wen Ting still lying on top of Shen Tang. When he saw the look in Shen Tang's eyes change from confusion after just waking up to fear, he couldn't help but grin, "Are you awake?"

Shen Tang was stunned for a moment, and the muscles in his head finally came back to normal. Fortunately, Liu Ling beside him had not woken up yet. She looked at the person who appeared in front of her with an expressionless face, and her expression was a little gloomy.

"Who are you?"

"I am Wen Ting, the young master of the Wen family. How come you don't even recognize me? No, why can you see me?" Wen Ting seemed to have no idea that he was dead. He curiously grabbed Shen Tang's clothes and touched them here and there. If Shen Tang hadn't stopped his hands in time, this guy would have lifted her clothes to find out.

"Speak human language," Shen Tang frowned and looked at the jade in his palm. Wasn't this thing in Liu Ling's hand before? How did it end up in her hand now? Could it be that this guy touched it himself?

"This is not the era for you to live in. Don't act like a rich man every day." Shen Tang wanted to put the jade in his hand back into Liu Ling's pocket, but he found that the jade was stuck to her hand and refused to leave. "What are you going to do!"

Shen Tang's cold voice did not scare Wen Ting away, but instead made him more determined.

"You did that to me yesterday, I won't let you off easily!" Wen Ting said righteously, with a hint of resentment in his tone, "I have never been treated like this since I was a child. You are the first one who treats me like a ball."

The corners of Shen Tang's mouth twitched, and he remained silent for a long time.

So Wen Ting went through so much trouble to get into his hands from the heroine, just because she kicked his possessed object to the heroine yesterday?

Shen Tang calmly moved Ah Piao aside, slightly raised his eyes that were blocked by his bangs and looked at him, "Then I'll apologize to you, okay?"

After saying that, she put the jade in her hand back into Liu Ling's pocket, but still failed.

"What do you want?" Shen Tang looked at Wen Ting who was holding her hand. She was so cold that she shivered and got goosebumps all over her body. Her tone became gloomy. She couldn't let the other party kick her back like a ball, right? She was not Ah Piao.

Wen Ting blinked, and his smile was like the breeze blowing through the mountains. "I want to go back with you. I've been alone in the mountains for too long. The only people who came here in the past were those who came to burn incense and worship Buddha. But these guys are not honest at all. I just scare them and they run away."

"So you were responsible for all the strange things that happened in that empty ancient temple?" Shen Tang asked hesitantly, "And did you learn the way you talk from them?"

In her impression, Wen Ting was a ghost from a hundred years ago when he woke up. Logically, he should not be able to speak the modern way, but now it seems that he speaks quite fluently.

"I have no choice. I have nothing to do in the mountains, so I just follow a group of people to kill time. Over time, I learned the way you talk." Wen Ting tilted his head and looked in the direction of Liu Ling. "I didn't expect that after so long, your clothes have changed their style. They look weird."

Shen Tang blinked calmly, his dark eyes were calm, "I don't care about your affairs, you just need to stay with Liu Ling and don't do anything to make yourself bored."

"I don't. What is your relationship with that woman? Why do you want me to follow her? I haven't even settled the score with you for treating me like a ball. Do you want to leave me in that woman's hands and escape your responsibility?"

The boy's bright voice was tinged with resentment, and the way he spoke sounded like a young wife blaming her husband, with a strong sense of resentment.

"Just because I wasn't the one who picked up the jade, is that okay?"

Shen Tang said with a little impatience, and soon resisted the force from the air, and put the jade in her palm back into Liu Ling's pocket. She was like a stone, not caring about Wen Ting's thoughts, and quickly put the jade into her pocket.

It was not known whether it was Shen Tang's hard-heartedness that annoyed Wen Ting, so she stuffed the jade into Liu Ling's coat pocket. Then she was pushed back by a heavy force, and lay straight in the tent, staring at Wen Ting who was pressing on her.

She really was in trouble!

"Hurry up and get off!" Some color finally appeared on Shen Tang's pale and cold face. Although this guy was a weakling, the force he exerted on his body was no less than that of a normal person, so that Shen Tang was unable to break free from his grip for a while.

Wen Ting's chilly body temperature approached her, and her drooping hair swayed slightly, making Shen Tang's neck itch. His fair and beautiful face moved closer to her cheek, as if just to see her shiny black eyes clearly.

"I like the smell of you, I just want to follow you." Wen Ting's cold hands gently touched Shen Tang's face. It was so warm. Is this the body temperature of a living person?

Shen Tang guessed that this might be because her original body had been dealing with Apiao and others since she was a child, and was always with evil creatures. No wonder Wen Ting also liked to stay around her.

But this is not a reason for him to casually ruin the plot!

Shen Tang cursed inwardly and looked at Wen Ting coldly, "So what? I don't like you. You slimy little brats are the most disgusting."

As the girl finished her words, Wen Ting's body froze instantly, causing her to struggle to break free from her restraints and stand up from the tent.

"I'm disgusting?" Wen Ting looked a little sad. He stayed there for a long time, motionless, and did not try to stop Shen Tang from escaping.

"I'm sorry, I just haven't seen anyone I can talk to in a long time." After an unknown amount of time, a slightly frustrated voice came out of the boy's mouth. The dead souls who remained in the world all had people they wanted to entangle, but he was an exception. He couldn't remember how he died, nor did he know why he couldn't be reincarnated.

Wen Ting straightened his robe and sat down slowly in front of Shen Tang. He didn't know why, but he felt very happy when he saw this woman and wanted to get close to her. However, the other person didn't seem to have a good personality and she even thought he was disgusting.

Thinking of this, Wen Ting turned away silently with a bitter face, "If you absolutely do not want me to follow you, I will not make it difficult for you, but..."

Shen Tang raised his eyebrows: "But?"

"But can you come visit me more often?" Wen Ting blinked frantically, almost clinging to Shen Tang's thighs to beg, "That girl is too righteous, I feel uncomfortable being too close to her. If you can stay with her more often, then I am willing to go home with this girl."

According to Liu Ling's personality, she was indeed a kind and upright girl as Wen Ting said. What puzzled Shen Tang was that Wen Ting seemed to be a decent person when he was alive. Shouldn't such a person like Liu Ling's personality the most? In the previous mission, she brought the jade back home under Liu Ling's identity, but not so many things happened.

Shen Tang hesitated for a while, but finally agreed to Wen Ting's request. Rather than this guy nagging her for the evil spirit in her body, it would be better for her to stay with Liu Ling and let him be taken home obediently.

"Okay, but you have to stay by her side and don't scare her," Shen Tang said as he picked up Liu Ling's coat and folded it aside. If the hero can return to the heroine's home smoothly, the rest of the things will be much easier to solve. After all, the original body doesn't have many scenes in the plot. After the relationship between the hero and heroine heats up, she tries to help Liu Ling send Wen Ting back before the bug appears, so that even if the hero remembers the past, he dare not do anything to her again.

"Don't worry, I'm what you modern people call... a five-good citizen. If something happens to that person, maybe I can help." When Wen Ting heard Shen Tang agreed to his words, he happily jumped up from the ground and followed Shen Tang righteously.

Shen Tang was just about to complain that it would be good if Wen Ting didn't make trouble, but he didn't expect that this guy followed him again.

"Why are you still following me?"

Shen Tang's dark eyes turned slightly, and his gaze fell on Wen Ting, "Didn't you promise me that you would go back with Liu Ling?"

Wen Ting nodded: "That's right, let's talk about going back later. You also promised to visit the woman named Liu Ling often. Now she is still in a dream, so what's wrong with me following you!"

Shen Tang couldn't win the argument, so she let him follow her. She took her drawing board, paper, pen and other tools and walked to a place where she could see the ancient temple from a distance. She sat there and started to paint quietly. Wen Ting was about to follow like a puppy, but he found himself trapped by an invisible barrier.

"This is..." Wen Ting whispered, and suddenly realized something. He puffed up his face and shouted at the girl who was clearly in front of him but could not be touched, "So you already knew it!"

Shen Tang didn't turn around to look at him, but just raised the corners of his lips in a good mood, and there was no intention of stopping the movement of picking up the pen to paint.

Wen Ting was possessed by the jade stone, so his range of movement was actually limited, otherwise he would not have stayed in this remote place to guard the ancient temple for so many years. Shen Tang knew this, so she deliberately chose a place where Wen Ting could see but could not follow her to paint. She didn't want this clingy ghost to follow her all the time, otherwise how could she complete the mission.

Wen Ting angrily accused through the invisible barrier: "You are such a despicable person, can't I just stop following you?"
