Chapter 17: A Ghost

Yes, the eyes!

It was the eyes!

In the past, the jinx’s eyes were apathetic. They were filled with helplessness and despair towards life. They showed the host’s desperation and pain in the struggle for survival.

But now, the eyes were filled with a deep and sharp look. They were filled with vitality and confidence in life. There was also a haughty and arrogant aura. It was as if the world was nothing in her eyes. She had disdain for the world.

Lin Dawei was shocked.

This change was too unbelievable!

What caused this change in Lin Yuelan?

“Ghost, ghost!” Lin Siniu looked at the disheveled Lin Yuelan and immediately cried out in panic. He hid behind Lin Dawei and trembled all over.

When Lin Yuelan appeared, Lin Sinui felt like a huge mountain had pressed down on him. He was gasping for breath as if he was on the verge of death. It was a terrifying feeling.

When the others heard Lin Siniu, while they didn’t act as exaggeratedly as Lin Siniu, many of the guilty couldn’t help but hide behind the other villagers. They were afraid that Lin Yuelan would fly over to grab them.

Lin Dawei, who was made into a meat shield, frowned. He despised Lin Siniu for his cowardly behavior. Of course, he didn’t say anything.

He pulled Lin Siniu out from behind him and pointed at Lin Yuelan. He shouted sternly, “This girl is a human! Look at the shadows on the ground. Do ghosts have shadows? Get out from behind me!”

Everyone looked in Lin Yuelan’s direction. The few people who were hiding behind the villagers secretly poked their heads out and looked in Lin Yuelan’s direction.

It was quarter past three. The sun cast long shadows on the ground.

When the villagers looked, there was a long shadow.

It was a living human!

Everyone was relieved.

Lin Siniu, this coward, started to act up again. He took several angry steps toward Lin Yuelan. He cursed loudly, “You wretched girl, you’re really bold. How dare you pretend to be a ghost to scare people? I’m going to teach you a lesson!”

As he said this, he rolled up his sleeves and swept one hand towards Lin Yuelan’s right face and the other towards Lin Yuelan’s left ear. His actions were exactly the same as his mother, Li Cuihua. She used the same tactic to beat Lin Yuelan. They were truly mother and son.

His foot was not idle either. He raised his left foot and kicked Lin Yuelan’s thigh.

Lin Yuelan was thin and small. Lin Siniu was short among men, but he was still an adult male. When he raised his foot, he could easily reach Lin Yuelan’s thigh.

Lin Siniu thought Lin Yuelan would take her punishment like before. She would stand there obediently and not move.

After all, in the past, once Lin Yuelan dodged his attacks, he would give her a darker lesson!

Therefore, Lin Yuelan would stand there obediently to let him beat and scold her. After he finished venting his anger, Lin Yuelan would be lying on the ground half-dead.

“Crack!”

“Crack!”

“Ah!”

“Ah!”
