Chapter 11: First Meeting with Lin Zhixia



"Ah!!!" Bai An staggered back a few steps in fright, covering his small bag.

Lin Zhixia looked at Bai An's actions, her eyes dimmed, "What's wrong with you?"

“No, no.” When the pale face spoke, Bai An recognized that it was Lin Zhixia. She calmed herself down and whispered, “I was just suddenly frightened.”

Lin Zhixia didn't ask why she was frightened, but just asked softly: "What are you doing here?"

Bai An looked at him leaning against the door with his hands folded, his face pale and indifferent. He looked at her with interest, with a faint smile in his eyes.

She wanted to call Cui Ju, but for some reason, Lin Zhixia's look made her feel a little scared.

"I want to find Cui Ju." Bai An hugged the small bag tightly in his arms and said softly.

Lin Zhixia looked at Bai An's defensive posture and sneered, "Am I that scary? Why do you look so scared every time you see me?"

It's because you always stare at me and I don't know what you are looking at.

"Because we don't know each other yet." Bai An saw that he was still staring at him and smiled obediently, "Now we should be considered to know each other."

...

...

Lin Zhixia raised her eyebrows and turned sideways, "Come in, Cui Ju is in the room."

It was almost dark. As soon as Bai An entered Cui Ju's huge house, his eyes seemed to be covered with fog.

"Why don't you turn on the lights?" Bai An followed Lin Zhixia closely, looking at the vaguely visible furnishings in the house in the dark.

Although there is nothing left in the house, the layout of the space, the building materials, and the overall construction all give us a glimpse of the former wealth.

Lin Zhixia glanced at Bai An who was following behind her and chuckled, "Do you think everyone's family is as extravagant as yours?"

"What?" Bai An grabbed the corner of his clothes and frowned.

Lin Zhixia looked down at the hand that was grabbing the corner of her clothes. It was slender and white, and she couldn't help but feel ridiculous.

That family really loves her.

"Nothing." Lin Zhixia took Bai An's hand, walked to Cui Ju's door, opened the door and pushed Bai An in, "She hasn't come back yet, you wait for her here first."

Bai An was pushed to the ground by him and it was he who pulled him from behind to avoid this from happening.

Bai An turned around angrily and wanted to reprimand him, but he simply closed the door.

"Lin Zhixia, are you sick?" Bai An banged on the door and said his name loudly, "Lin Zhixia, don't let me see you outside, I will definitely not let you go."

Lin Zhixia sat at the door, listening to Bai An condemning her inside. She widened her eyes in surprise, spread her hands, and shrugged.

I thought it was a little white rabbit, but it seems not.

Bai An was talking till his mouth was dry and he kicked the door hard in anger.

"My kindness is really not rewarded." Bai An took out the books from his bag, turned around and put them on Cui Ju's desk, and vaguely wrote a few words in the moonlight outside.

After finishing writing, Bai An pushed the door again, but it still didn't open. Then he turned around and carefully observed the settings in the room.

There is also a window here.

Bai An ran to the window and touched it. There was no dust, so it seemed that it was opened frequently.

This means that the window is not sealed.

Bai An pressed the bottom of the window and pushed hard, opening a crack.

it works!

Just as Bai An opened the window wide and wanted to climb out, a voice appeared faintly in her ears.

"Where are you going?"

Bai An, who was almost scared to step back, rolled her eyes silently and continued to look through the window. The man saw that she was inconvenienced and kindly helped her.

Bai An shook off Lin Zhixia's hand after landing and said loudly, "Where can we go? Of course, home."

Lin Zhixia looked up at the sky and said supportively, "It's really late."

Bai An took the opportunity when he looked up at the sky to push him and made an international friendly gesture to Lin Zhixia who took several steps back, "I am not someone you can easily mess with. If it weren't for the fact that you are Cui Ju's brother, you would be finished today."

Lin Zhixia covered her chest and looked at the back of the girl in front of her who seemed to be running away. She couldn't help but chuckle, "How childish."

There are no street lights in the village and the villagers go to bed very early. Bai An walked on the path home. It was pitch black all around him and he felt a little scared. But the more scared a person is, the more he can think of something.

Bai An thought back to when he was in the orphanage, an auntie told him that in their time, it was easy to see ghosts because there were so few people, but now that there are more people, there are fewer ghosts.

Ahhh, it happened so long ago, how come I still remember it?

Bai An held the bag in his arms, lowered his head expressionlessly, and tried hard to control himself from looking to the side. He increased his pace and quickened his pace.

The more you are forbidden to do something, the more you want to do it. Bai An raised his head and looked to the side as if giving up.

A figure was standing next to the haystack. When he saw her looking in his direction, he raised his foot and quickly approached her.

Bai An's face turned pale in an instant, cold sweat broke out from his forehead, and his whole body was trembling. He quickly lowered his head and ran towards his home.

“Amitabha, Amitabha.”

"Long live the Bodhisattva Guanyin!"

"This strength is steel, this strength is iron."

Bai An began to talk nonsense. She really believed that such a thing existed in the world. After all, she could travel through time, so there was nothing surprising about such a thing even if it existed.

"Bai An!" Lu Jinan saw Bai An walking on the way home and originally wanted to look for her, but Bai An clearly looked up and saw him, so why was she running so fast?

Lu Jinan followed behind Bai An, listening to her chattering about some nonsensical things.

I couldn't help but call her.

When Bai An heard the figure behind her calling out Lu Jinan's voice, she stopped, but she didn't dare to turn around rashly, because people have three fires on their bodies, and as long as she turned her head, the fire on her shoulder would go out.

Lu Jinan watched Bai An move stiffly towards him, the look of fear on his face still there.

I was really scared.

Lu Jinan pinched Bai An's face and said with amusement, "You're so scared, yet you still dare to come out by yourself at night."

The fingers that pinched my face were hot.

Bai An's tense heart finally relaxed.

"Brother, you don't know how scared I am." Bai An took Lu Jinan's hand and leaned against him, saying pitifully, "I will never come out by myself again."

Lu Jinan pulled his hand out of Bai An's arms, hugged Bai An directly in his arms, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, Mom has prepared dinner and is waiting for us."

Lu Jinan seemed to suddenly realize something. He raised his head and looked behind him. In the moonlight, he clearly saw the figure behind the tree.

Lu Jinan narrowed his eyes and pulled Bai An closer to his arms.

There are no ghosts in the world. If there are ghosts, they are disguised as humans.
