Chapter 221 The Slums You Can't Escape (3)
Although Chen Xiao couldn't hear Yan Ting's voice, he always managed to pinpoint her location with a certain intuition.
For several days, he kept testing the female ghost named Zhizhi.
Although Yanting had some experience in getting information out of people, he still sometimes fell into Chen Xiao's trap.
For example, Chen Xiao learned that she was not from this world.
Or perhaps he realized that the other person seemed to be using him as a substitute for someone else.
(Yanting's horrified face: No, I didn't!)
In short, without Yan Ting's own awareness, Chen Xiao completely uncovered her identity.
Of course, the reason why Chen Xiao was able to extract information so easily was because Yan Ting had no defenses against him, and not only did she not have any defenses, she also had a strong sense of trust and dependence on him.
Chen Xiao's eyes were dark and brooding.
really.
Did she see him as a substitute for that person?
Yanting didn't know.
Most children growing up in slums lack a sense of security.
They lived a repressed life.
Life is predictable and monotonous.
Chen Xiao did not know who his parents were.
All he knew was that he had been wandering alone in this area ever since he became conscious.
Like a lonely, wandering ghost.
Chen Xiao could tell that Yan Ting had grown up in a wealthy family.
Many details are enough to show that Yanting was a pampered young lady in her lifetime.
He was wondering how he could persuade this young lady to stay.
Sacrifice?
worship?
Or should he sell his soul?
But what if this young lady doesn't want to accept him?
Thinking of this, the smile on the boy's face gradually faded until it disappeared completely.
He couldn't see Yan Ting's presence, nor could he hear her voice. She could leave whenever she wanted, and he had no way to stop her.
Yan Ting, who was on a mission, was unaware that her lover was gradually turning to the dark side...
After she completed the task and received the reward of two million, she tried to buy, buy, buy.
But afraid of scaring people, she always went to buy them at night.
First, buy two phones, one for her and one for Chen Xiao.
She paid the 30,000 yuan for the two phones directly.
After buying a phone, it's time to buy clothes, shoes, and food...
Every time I buy something from Yanting, I pay for it and then go there.
Yes, she's a law-abiding ghost.
Yanting bought a lot of things, but because she was strong, carrying them was a piece of cake for her.
Just as she entered the house, a faint voice suddenly rang out:
"where did you go?"
Caught red-handed, Yan Ting: "..."
I have a chill down my spine.
Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the large and small bags in front of him.
Where did you get the money?
Yan Ting didn't say anything, but instead took out her phone and handed it to Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao looked at the brand-new screen phone and raised an eyebrow slightly: "You bought this for me?"
Yanting typed in the notes app on her newly purchased phone: "Yes, I bought it for Axiao. Does Axiao like it?"
Chen Xiao gently stroked the screen with his fingertips, his voice gentle: "I like it very much, thank you Zhizhi."
He didn't ask where the money for the purchases came from.
Because he suspected that his girlfriend might be keeping a stray dog outside.
It was a well-fed stray dog.
Thinking of this, a cold glint appeared in the boy's eyes.
Maybe that stray dog is Ah Xiao, whom she's been longing for.
Yes.
Even though Yanting said she was Chen Xiao, he still believed that she wasn't looking for him, but for someone else with the same name and appearance.
Yanting bought a lot of clothes for Chen Xiao, all of which were chosen according to his preferences.
Although the boy was a bit too thin, he was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and even ordinary clothes looked fashionable on him.
In other words, a walking clothes hanger.
With money, Yanting felt completely at ease.
Every day, they try every possible way to feed the boy.
They were determined to fatten the other person up.
Chen Xiao seemed to see through Yan Ting's intentions, but he didn't say anything and accepted the food offered to him.
The life of the human and the ghost was quite harmonious.
Until one morning, Chen Xiao heard a clear and melodious female voice.
“Ah Xiao.”
It was Yanting's voice.
So that's what her voice is like.
A faint smile flickered in her lowered eyes.
Vertical sun.
Yan Ting pulled Chen Xiao along, wanting to go for a walk.
But then he ran into a girl.
The girl was pretty with fair skin.
She looked at Chen Xiao with affection in her eyes and said in a tender voice, "Chen Xiao."
Yan Ting fell silent.
Although she knew that with Chen Xiao's looks, he would have no shortage of beautiful women wherever he went.
However, when faced with this situation, Yanting was still a little jealous.
However, Chen Xiao's attitude was unusually cold.
His eyes were calm: "I don't want to see you."
"Why?" Hu Li asked, sounding a little aggrieved. "I like you so much, can't you even look at me once more?"
She fell in love with Chen Xiao at first sight.
From then on, she tried every means to get close to him.
But no matter what she did, Chen Xiao treated her like a stranger.
No, they're not even as good as strangers.
Faced with Hu Li's aggrieved questioning, Chen Xiao remained calm and composed: "I have someone I like."
Although she might not be human, the moment she appeared, his heart had already given him the answer.
"you're lying!"
Hu Li didn't believe Chen Xiao's explanation at all.
Because she had never seen a girl around the reclusive boy.
So the other party was just making excuses to reject her.
Hu Li said angrily, "You'll regret this." Then she ran away.
Yanting, who had been watching from beginning to end: ...
how to say?
She suddenly became a little unhappy.
Because Chen Xiao just said he has someone he likes?
Yan Ting slowly narrowed her eyes: "You have someone you like?"
Chen Xiao had a feeling that the other person's tone was a bit strange, but he still casually asked back, "Does Zhizhi really like money?"
Yan Ting subconsciously said, "Who doesn't like money?"
She is an ordinary person, and naturally she likes money very much.
"I see!" Chen Xiao said thoughtfully.
Looking at Chen Xiao, who was deep in thought, Yan Ting was a little angry: "You still haven't answered my question."
The thought that Chen Xiao might fall for someone gave Yan Ting an urge to destroy the world. (Just kidding.)
However, she didn't think Chen Xiao would fall in love with anyone else.
The bond between them is higher than the sky and deeper than the sea.
Chen Xiao casually curled his lips: "Is it just jealousy?"
To everyone's surprise, Yanting readily admitted, "Yes."
Chen Xiao was taken aback when the other party admitted it.
He then thought for a moment and said in a flat tone, "I don't have anyone I like."
But there are ghosts I like.
This sentence was not spoken.
But Yanting still became happy.
She said to Chen Xiao, "You can only love me."
That's so domineering!
Thinking this, Chen Xiao smiled slightly: "What about Zhizhi?"
Without hesitation, Yan Ting replied, "I only love you too."
Chen Xiao lowered his eyelashes and asked softly, "Will you only stay with me forever?"
"Of course I will always be with you."
They could not be separated, not even in death.
