Having devoted myself to guiding souls, I was surrounded by them after my death.

Why did things suddenly change?!

Su Yining leaned in quite close; her delicate oval face resembled a meticulously sculpted Greek sculpture, with a few strands of hair already falling to her shoulders.

It is indeed very beautiful.

Like the white moonlight that appears in a boy's youth, you get along very well with her and have a lot of fun, but in the end, you can't take the final step. And then, whenever you look back on your campus life, you see that beautiful face in every corner.

Su Yining is such a person.

Chen Shi had been so busy thinking about ghosts and death that he hadn't really thought about Su Yining herself.

Now that the two are alone in the room, with the fragrance of crape myrtle wafting through the air, the feeling of being a "school beauty" is gradually becoming stronger.

Looking at the face in front of him, his ears turned slightly red, and his eyes became somewhat unfocused.

Upon seeing this, Su Yining couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle.

"Hum hum……"

She jumped back a step, creating some distance, and reached out to flick Chen Shi's nose:

"Okay, okay, I'm just teasing you, you innocent college boy."

She's not actually that innocent...

Su Yining sat back on the bed and patted the edge of the bed:

"Come and sit down. There's no rush to find the body during the soul-crossing procession, is there?"

A hint of expectation flashed in her eyes—an expectation of being accompanied.

Chen Shi looked at Su Yining's side, then at the plush bear doll next to her.

Yes, this is the first time Su Yining has had someone come to her "home".

For the past three years, when she was alone on the bed chatting with Xiao Er Mao, she must have fantasized countless times about getting a response.

"Too."

Chen Shi smiled and sat down on the edge of the bed.

"Speaking of which, senior... what have you been eating for the past three years?"

He suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Su Yining eat since he met her.

Su Yining blinked and replied:

"I haven't eaten anything."

As expected!

"Ghosts don't need to eat, that makes sense, right?"

Su Yining chuckled and put her hands on her hips.

Senior, is this something to be proud of?

"However, I do have cravings sometimes, like milk tea, cake, ice cream and stuff like that."

Su Yining licked her lips and said:

"I tried ordering takeout to the school gate and then picking it up. I could eat it, but it didn't taste like anything."

"No sense of taste?"

"Ah."

Su Yining sighed heavily:

"What a pity, the milk tea and strawberry cake have no flavor, so I can only consider them as a diet."

Ghosts don't get fat, do they...? Never mind, I feel like I'd get beaten up if I said that.

"Hey! But I have to tell you..."

Su Yining grinned, as if she had remembered something very funny.

She crossed her legs, her knees spread apart, and her black stockings unintentionally rubbed against Chen Shi's thighs, letting out a warm sensation.

"I'm not a ghost, so no one can see me. Last time I saw someone stealing takeout from above my head, so I secretly followed him and untied his shoelaces while he was walking."

Just thinking about what would happen next made Su Yining burst into laughter, her body swaying on the bed, her silk-clad legs making soft rustling sounds as she touched herself.

Before Chen Shi could reply, Su Yining began to talk about other things.

They talked about how she would lie on the edge of the table watching her classmates secretly shovel food under it. They talked about how she would carry large bags and packages by herself, transporting things to the warehouse in the early hours of the morning…

Chen Shi sat on the edge of the bed, not saying much, just listening quietly.

Unlike the plush bear, Su Yining knew that what she was saying was actually heard and remembered.

"Oh right..."

Su Yining chatted for a while, then suddenly paused, brushed her hair aside to reveal her profile, which was leaning towards Chen Shi.

"Junior, may I call you by your first name?"

"Call me by name?"

Only after hearing this did Chen Shi realize what was going on.

Su Yining usually calls him "junior brother," only using his real name when he's in danger or about to die.

What kind of Japanese romance plot?

"Of course, if you like it, senior." Chen Shi nodded.

"Oh? Saying things I like... Junior, cough... Chen Shi, you're secretly setting traps for your senior?"

Su Yining smiled with narrowed eyes, drawing circles on Chen Shi's arm with her index finger.

"You're clearly overthinking things, senior."

"So, I've already called you by your name, what about you?" Su Yining hugged her ankles with both hands, her delicate body swaying, her hair swinging back and forth.

"I'll still call her 'senior sister,' I'm used to it."

"Uh……"

For a split second, Su Yining showed an expression that said, "This child is beyond redemption," and then waved her hand:

"Okay, okay, whatever makes you happy."

After saying that, she suddenly realized that she had talked too much and said everything she could. She wanted to find a topic to talk about but didn't know what to say, so the two of them just sat there awkwardly.

After a while, Su Yining asked:

Are you going to find Jiang Liu now?

She scratched her cheek, remembering that people usually say "Why don't you stay for a meal" when inviting guests, but it would be too stupid for her to ask that now.

"It's okay, no rush, a few hours won't make a difference."

Chen Shi saw through Su Yining's thoughts and took the initiative to get up and pick up the chess set:

"Senior, let's play chess."

As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yining's crimson eyes lit up.

"Oh!"

She grinned, her little hands clenched into fists:

"Then I'll have to show you my chess skills, senior. There will be a punishment if you lose."

"What punishment?"

"Flick your forehead?"

"Are you a child...?"

In the evening, Chen Shi rode his bicycle on the non-motorized vehicle lane.

It must be said that since becoming a ferryman, his inspiration has improved, and not only his perception, but also his physical strength and power have increased a lot.

Otherwise, when the three evil spirits fled, he wouldn't have been able to carry Zhang Chengkang with one hand.

However, unlike usual, he rode very slowly this time.

As for why...

"Oh, so this is what it feels like to ride on the back of a bicycle."

On the back of the bicycle, Su Yining was sitting sideways, one hand holding down her skirt and the other gripping the seat buckle in front of her.

"Hey, won't it be hard to ride if there's another person on it?"

Su Yining looked up as she spoke. The summer breeze was sticky, making her hair sway, and a few streaks of red against the backdrop of the setting sun were just right.

"No, you're very light, senior," Chen Shi replied.

This is not just polite talk; it's the truth.

Su Yining was so light that it was as if she didn't exist.

"You know how to talk."

Su Yining smiled, her dark red dress perfectly outlining her figure. One electric scooter after another drove past her, stirring up the wind and making her skirt flutter, like the wind teasing a rose.

Suddenly...

"Ouch."

Chen was so engrossed in pedaling that he was thinking about the school that he didn't realize there was still one second left on the red light and quickly slammed on the brakes.

The next second, a scream was heard:

"Waaah!"

A soft touch came from his back, and at the same time, two fair arms wrapped around his waist.

The fragrance of the crape myrtle flowers is even stronger now.

"Sorry, senior, I was so focused on the road that I didn't notice the lights."

Behind him, Su Yining hugged him because of the sudden stop, her body pressed against his back, and a few strands of hair even fell down from her shoulders.

"That scared me to death."

Su Yining didn't mind at all; instead, she giggled.

"Chen Shi, you didn't do this on purpose, did you? It's a pity, this kind of plot is outdated, it's not original at all, I can only give it 5 points."

What is the maximum score?

"100 points."

Isn't that a bit too low?

However, although Su Yining said that, she did not let go of his hand.

"Senior?"

"What? Is your waist made of gold and you won't let me touch it? Or... are you ticklish?"

Su Yining chuckled, her face flushed slightly, probably because of the heat, and her complexion was as radiant as ever.

"That's a shame. I'm not ticklish, and you wouldn't want us to crash and die, would you, senior?"

Chen smiled, the red light turned green, and he continued pedaling.

He felt his face was also a little hot, probably because it was too hot.

It was summer in Nanhai City, and the sun was as scorching as ever.

……

A few minutes later, Chen Shi parked his bicycle at Jiang Lingqin's shop.

Chen Shi stopped at the door and asked:
