After sharing a body with her husband

[You vicious woman, you made me run the car for you, you're not human!]

I even felt sorry for you!

【…】

The male ghost kept cursing and swearing without stopping, but Shang Lingjun had no time to pay attention to him.

Because she just wanted to try it out, and she did get the answer.

She can give or take back control of the body whenever she wants; she has complete control. The male ghost is passive and cannot take over her body unless he gives it up voluntarily.

This put Shang Lingjun's worries at ease.

She was terrified that this strange male ghost would possess her body.

Then, she wanted to try to knock the male ghost's soul out by hitting it with great force.

The results are obvious.

Failed.

Don't be angry, I just wanted to see if I could knock you out of the way. My head hurts so much, ouch...

Shang Lingjun had no choice but to appease him. Now that control of her body had returned to Shang Lingjun, she had a splitting headache and didn't want to listen to the male ghost's incessant chatter anymore.

【Oh……】

The male ghost thought about it and realized that he only felt pain for a moment, and she would have to bear the pain herself afterward.

After hitting the pillar, Shang Lingjun was carried to this side room. I don't know if anyone has called a doctor for her.

The male ghost grunted twice, clearly unconvinced.

[You're too impatient. You haven't caught them in the act yet. Words alone aren't enough; it won't be difficult for them to turn the tables.]

Shang Lingjun remained calm and said in a light tone:

[After I put on that show in front of others, naturally someone would be eager to catch me in the act.]

Xie Zhaoqing's father, Xie Sanye, was the third son of a concubine, and he and Xie Siye, the fourth son of a concubine, were not born to the same concubine and had a very bad relationship.

Xie Zhaoqing is the only male member of the third branch of the family. He could ruin the future of the third branch of the family, and the fourth branch of the family would be more than happy to do so.

Shang Lingjun saw it all clearly. Before the fourth wife, Li Shi, had even finished listening, she rushed off to catch the adulterer in the act.

If Shang Lingjun led everyone there, it would be too deliberate, and her status as a victim would be questionable. How could she then demand compensation from the Xie family?

Moreover, her collision was like pouring hot oil into a fire, causing an uproar and sure to make headlines.

Furthermore, by resting quietly after her injury, she avoided the chaotic scene outside and could temporarily escape those who wanted to cause her trouble.

Therefore, this collision can be described as killing three birds with one stone.

The male ghost clicked his tongue, thinking to himself that the Xie family had actually married such a clever girl. Oh well, the Xie family must have owed her a lot in the previous life, and this calamity was just retribution.

What kind of compensation do you want?

Shang Lingjun raised an eyebrow; she wasn't afraid to let this male ghost know.

【Of course, I'd like to marry someone else. Wouldn't it be satisfying if Xie Zhaoqing addressed me as "Auntie" from then on?】

The old master of the Xie family had seven children. His eldest son, second daughter, and seventh son were all born to the matriarch, Lady Wei, while the rest were born to concubines.

Xie Yan'an, the seventh son in the family, was a notorious playboy in the capital. He was born to Old Madam Wei late in life and was spoiled terribly. Unfortunately, he was seriously injured and fell into a coma last year and has not yet woken up.

The imperial physicians all said there was no cure.

If Xie Qiye hadn't been a comatose cripple, Shang Lingjun wouldn't have had this confidence.

If her wish could come true, she really wanted to see Xie Zhaoqing and Xiao Jing's expressions!

The male ghost was so shocked he couldn't speak. When he finally came to his senses, his voice cracked.

Who do you want to marry?!

She's actually going to marry... him?

Himself!

That's right, the male ghost is Xie Yan'an, who is paralyzed and in a coma!

Xie Yan'an was completely bewildered. It was already strange that his soul had inexplicably entered his nephew's wife's body, but now this nephew's wife was actually declaring that she wanted to marry him.

He's paralyzed, so why is he still being remembered?

Shang Lingjun frowned slightly. "Why are you so agitated again? You're so easily startled."

No... I just feel... isn't this a bit unethical?

Xie Yan'an's voice sounded somewhat awkward.

After some hesitation, Xie Yan'an decided to hold off on revealing his identity to Shang Lingjun for the time being and observe the situation first.

Shang Lingjun got angry and snorted: "What's it to you?"

【…】

Xie Yan'an wisely kept his mouth shut.

……

Inside the bridal chamber...

"Ouch!"

As expected, Li caught the two men in the act of having sex right there in bed!

"Fourth Aunt? What brings you here? This is all a misunderstanding!"

Xie Zhaoqing and Xiao Jing were terrified.

"Nephew, even if you are Xiao Huan, you shouldn't be fooling around with men on your wedding night. Do you understand?"

Your new wife committed suicide by running into a pillar in the front yard! Now look what's happened, everyone knows, where is the Xie family's face now?!

"What??"

Xie Zhaoqing's face turned a deep shade of liver in an instant, consumed by rage, his eyes red as he growled:

"You bitch!"

Xiao Jing's mood deteriorated further, and his face looked worse than if he had swallowed a dead fly.

The incident happened so suddenly that they were completely thrown into disarray. When did Shang Lingjun wake up, and when did she run out?

Xiao Huan?

How dare Shang Lingjun say they had a "sodomy" relationship?!

Nausea!

And why did she suddenly commit suicide by hitting her head against a pillar? What an idiot!

It's over... everything is completely over now!

……

The Xie family had committed a terrible scandal that nearly resulted in a death, and the guests had long since taken their leave.

It's likely that by tonight, the fact that Xiao Jing and Xie Zhaoqing are a couple will become the talk of the town.

Shang Lingjun, the bride who committed suicide by hitting her head against a pillar, was considered a pitiful figure by everyone.

Shang Lingjun was so hungry that she ate all the fruit on the table. She waited a long time for the doctor to arrive, probably because it was too chaotic and no one paid any attention to her.

So she bandaged herself up simply, and thankfully the bleeding wasn't much.

"You still have the appetite? You're quite calm." Xie Yan'an's tone was laced with sarcasm.

Shang Lingjun's cheeks were bulging from eating, and she spoke unclearly:

[Just you wait, the Xie family will be extremely glad I didn't die, and they'll even find a way to compensate me... uh, compensate me, I need to replenish my strength first.]

She choked for a moment.

"Eat slowly, no one's going to take it from you," Xie Yan'an couldn't help but remind him.

What she said is true.

Because once she dies, the fact that the Xie family arranged a marriage for Xiao Huan and then forced the bride to commit suicide on their wedding night will be confirmed.

At that time, the future of the Xie family's younger generation will probably be ruined, and even the reputations of several officials will be affected.

Shang Lingjun didn't want to eat too fast, as it would hurt her wound. However, she hadn't eaten all day and had no strength at all. Her injury only made things worse.

And someone will definitely come looking for trouble with her later.

How can I fight these people if I don't eat my fill?

squeak~

Just then, someone pushed the door open and entered.

Shang Lingjun looked in the direction of the sound, and there they were!

She quickly wiped her mouth and sat up straight.

Upon seeing who it was, Shang Lingjun's pupils constricted slightly. It was actually her?

Shang Lingjun originally thought that the person who came would be an elder from the Qu family or the eldest branch, but she did not expect it to be Old Madam Wei!

When she was young, Old Madam Wei had a nickname, "Iron-Fisted Lady," because her strictness in managing her household was well-known throughout the capital.

Even though she is old now, Xie Sanye's illegitimate children still tremble before her like mice before a cat, not daring to breathe loudly.

She's difficult to deal with.

Old Madam Wei entered, supported by an elderly nanny. After slowly settling into her seat, she gave Shang Lingjun a sharp look, as if she could see right through her.

"You caused such a scene, turning the Xie family upside down. Did you get your revenge to your heart's content?"
