Chapter 230: Chapter 230: I Love You (4)

"Xiao Tian, what are you doing?" He pushed her away.

"I want to hug you." As she attempted to pounce again, Liang He dodged just in time. "Shi Xiaotian, have you lost your mind?!"

"Brother, let me hug and kiss you." She smiled and launched another assault, this time grabbing onto Liang He and refusing to let go, her hand reaching inside Liang He’s bathrobe.

Liang He felt that Shi Xiaotian was acting very strange; she had never behaved this way before, and she wasn’t drunk, so this kind of action didn’t seem like something she would do.

He flipped over and pinned her down on the bed, "Who are you, really?!"

"What do you think?"

Liang He suddenly thought of something, let go of her, fetched a piece of talisman paper from his suitcase, and just as he placed it on Shi Xiaotian who was still smiling, her eyes rolled back and she passed out.

Seeing this, Liang He hurriedly called Long Yubei. "There’s a ghost, there’s a ghost. Can you send me some more talisman paper? I gave the ones you sent before to my family."

"Understood, I’ll send someone with them."

Liang He hung up the phone, dragged the unconscious Shi Xiaotian to the bed above, and leaned against the headboard beside her.

His heart was still racing; this was his first encounter with such an event.

At that moment, Shi Xiaotian’s text message alert sounded.

He took her phone out of the pocket of her pants and glanced at it; it was from her mother: [Your dad, sister, and I discussed buying a new house. We’ve seen the house. Even though it’s not in the best part of our city, it’s much better than where we live now. Our old house might not be in a good location, but it can sell for six hundred thousand. Your dad and I have nine hundred thousand, and your sister can contribute two hundred thousand. If you can come up with three hundred thousand.]

Three hundred thousand?

From what Liang He knew, Shi Xiaotian had only recently graduated from college. Given her current salary, three hundred thousand was a huge sum of money she could not possibly come up with.

Didn’t her family realize this?

"Brother Liang..."

Seeing her awake, Liang He quickly asked, "Do you feel unwell anywhere?"

"No."

"Here, a text message from your mom." Liang He handed her the phone.

Shi Xiaotian sat up to look at the text and immediately replied with three words: [I don’t have.]

"What happened to me just now?"

"You were possessed by a ghost."

Shi Xiaotian suddenly felt a chill down her spine. "What... what did you say?"

"I said you were possessed by a ghost. Luckily, I had a piece of talisman paper my sister-in-law gave me. I’ve called Long Yubei to send more talisman paper over. I’ll give you one later."

She looked around warily, grabbing his arm. "I’m scared..."

Liang He pushed her away, "Being scared doesn’t mean you can be touchy-feely."

Shi Xiaotian didn’t dare to move and stayed put, so much so that when the doorbell rang, she was afraid to open the door. It was Liang who got out of bed to answer it.

He handed her a piece of talisman paper. "Take this and go back to your room to sleep."

She took it but didn’t move. "I... I’m a bit scared."

"You have the talisman paper now. With it, the brat won’t dare to possess you."

"I’m still scared. Brother Liang, can I sleep on the sofa?"

Liang He saw her face pale as death and eventually agreed, "If you climb into my bed in the middle of the night, I’ll throw you out."

"I won’t, I promise."

"..."

"Why have you come to my place in the middle of the night?" Ye Yan was quite puzzled at seeing the visitor.

"I need a favor."

"Please, have a seat."

Yuan Yi, wearing a mask, sat across from him.
