"My Tenant is a Female Ghost" features a female ghost.
"Hey, hey, hey! Did you hear? The English name is 'Flower Yangliu,' and she's walking with a stranger, laughing!"
"What? Is that true? Where? Let me see... Wow, it really is! Ugh! That guy looks so pathetic!"
"Hahaha, indeed! A flower stuck in cow dung!"
"Hey, hey, junior, don't say that carelessly!"
"What’s wrong, senior?"
"Do you know Cold Young Master, Leng Xuanhe?"
"I know him. How could I not? It seems like the school has set up some kind of campus beauty and handsome list, and Leng Xuanhe is ranked fifth among the handsome guys. What’s up? Could it be…"
"Hehe, you guessed right. This Yangliu is Leng Xuanhe's 'prized possession!' Leng Xuanhe is the Young Master of the Ningcheng Leng Family; everyone gives him some face. I wonder who that guy is to dare pursue Yangliu?"
...
"Cold Young Master, can you really tolerate this?"
Leng Xuanhe narrowed his eyes. "That damn guy again! Damn it, Kagura Keiha is such a waste; he didn't kill him! Leaving this fly here to annoy me, damn!"
"Kagura Keiha?" A handsome man next to him asked. He was just as good-looking as Leng Xuanhe, with slightly upturned lips that made him look like a 'girl killer.' He curiously asked, "Isn't he the brother of that short Japanese woman with big breasts?"
"Oh? You know someone from the Kagura Family?"
"Kagura Aoi, right? She's quite attractive and easy on the eyes. And that Kagura Keiha seems a bit slow... At our level, we have some understanding of families like yours. So, why not go down and deal with that guy?"
Leng Xuanhe snorted coldly. "Hmph, just a clown."
"Oh, this isn't like you. What's wrong? Are you scared?"
Leng Xuanhe shot him a disdainful glance and said, "The word 'fear' has never appeared in my dictionary!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, look at how happy Yang Liu is smiling. It seems she has never shown such a smile when you're around, Cold Young Master!"
"Xu Hang, stop stirring the pot here!"
"Oh? Am I? Well, anyway, she's not my woman, so why should I care?" Xu Hang chuckled lightly, grinning without saying more.
"Hmph!" Leng Xuanhe kicked the stool beside him and stormed out of the classroom.
Xu Hang smirked and remarked, "Heh heh, Leng Xuanhe? What a waste. Your Leng Family is just a stepping stone for the Kagura Family in Huaxia. To waste such precious three gold medals on a clown... Waste is just waste."
...
Bai Zhuo was strolling with Yang Liu around the school when he noticed that people were staring at them wherever they went. Realizing this, he asked, "Yang Liu, why are they all staring at us?"
"Haha, because you're handsome!"
Bai Zhuo felt a bit flattered and joked, "Of course! Back in kindergarten, there were quite a few girls who wrote love letters to me!"
"Pfft..." Yang Liu burst into laughter. "Bai Zhuo, I didn't expect you to be so narcissistic!"
"Narcissistic? No way! This is called confidence! Yang Liu, what if some junior sees how handsome I am and confesses to me? What should I do?"
Yang Liu laughed helplessly and covered her stomach. "Bai Zhuo! You're out of breath just from walking? With your figure, if someone confesses to you, even a sow would climb a tree..."
"Hey, Yang Liu, are you even my friend? Is this how you treat your friends?"
"That's exactly why I'm telling you the truth. This is tough love! Bai classmate, wake up..."
"Alright, alright, you win. I admit it; those people are looking at you, thinking that a beautiful flower has been planted in cow dung or that good cabbage has been pushed by pigs," he conceded.
Yang Liu playfully nudged Bai Zhuo and pouted, "You're such a pervert, it's really disgusting." Her movements were light and graceful, resembling a playful exchange between lovers. Not wanting to continue on that topic, she asked, "Why hasn't Qi come?"
"Oh, her? My master isn't around, and I have to take Ge Shui Lian to school, so I asked Qi to help me watch the shop."
"When will you take Qi back?"
Bai Zhuo replied, "Well... we'll see. Once my master returns, I'll take her back. She's been out for so long; her family must be worried about her."
"Have you not called her family at all?"
"No, they don't even use mobile phones in her village. When my master gets back, I definitely need to make a trip to Yun Province. Do you want to come along to see Qi off?"
Yang Liu felt a wave of melancholy wash over her as she sighed, "Of course I want to see her off! Sigh—Qi is such a sweet girl; I've almost come to think of her as my own sister. I didn't expect her to leave so soon."
Bai Zhuo sighed in agreement, "Yeah, who wouldn't feel that way? Qi is so quiet and already beautiful even before fully growing up. She'll definitely be a stunning woman when she matures. Last month she wanted to go back by herself, but I didn't agree. She's just a sixteen-year-old girl; I can't let her travel alone."
After hearing this, Yang Liu shot him a glare and scolded, "You pervert! Be honest—did you peek at Qi while she was bathing?"
"N-no! My dear lady, it's fine to eat whatever you want, but don't say things like that! Qi is a minor; I'd go to jail for that! Please don't wrong an innocent person!"
Yang Liu twisted the soft flesh at Bai Zhuo's waist fiercely and gritted her teeth, "So you're saying that as an adult, I can peek at others freely?"
"Ah! That hurts... Yang Liu, you're missing the point! The issue isn't about bathing; it's about taking Qi home! Can't you talk about something else... Ouch! Yang Liu, Sister Yang, please let go of me; I'm sorry!"
Yang Liu held her head high with pride and huffed, "I really misjudged you. I didn't expect you to be this kind of person who would sneak peeks at others while they bathe... This time I'll let it slide since you saved me again. But if I catch you doing this again, I'll tell Sister Shirei!"
Bai Zhuo's gaze wandered as he stammered, "Uh, well... what does that have to do with Sister Shirei..."
With hands on her hips and a teasing smile on her face, Yang Liu said, "Hmph! Don't think I can't see through you. You risked your life to save Sister Shirei; that's love! You've loved Sister Shirei for quite some time now, haven't you?"
Bai Zhuo immediately panicked and explained, "That... that wasn't me trying to peek on purpose! It was just that you left the door open while bathing; I just caught a glimpse!"
Yang Liu's expression changed dramatically, her face turning a deep shade of purple. "What? You were spying on me while I was bathing, and now you're blaming me?"
Speaking too much often leads to trouble. Bai Zhuo realized he had misspoken and immediately shut his mouth.
"Alright, I won't blame you," Yang Liu suddenly blushed and asked coyly, "So, did you see my body... completely?"
Bai Zhuo exclaimed, "No! Absolutely not! During both times, I only saw your back; I didn't see anything else, I swear!"
It’s important to know that sometimes women can turn hostile faster than flipping a page in a book, and Yang Liu was no exception. Her expression darkened immediately as she gritted her teeth and scolded, "What! You pervert, you lecher! You spied on me twice? Didn't you say you didn't want to see? How could it happen twice? What a coincidence!"
Bai Zhuo didn’t expect Yang Liu to react this way. Knowing he was in the wrong, he lowered his head deeply and said, "I'm sorry, I couldn't help myself the second time..."
"I... I..." Yang Liu was furious and didn’t know how to respond. Suddenly, a boy walked towards them, causing an impatient expression to appear on her face.
"Liu Er, you finally came! I've been so worried about you not being at school these past two days."
"Leng Xuanhe, how disgusting! You call him Liu Er too?" Yang Liu stepped back a bit, her disdain evident. Leng Xuanhe relaxed his clenched fists and smiled, "Yang Liu, I called your parents. They’ll be back next month. I've thought it over; when they return, I’ll ask for your hand in marriage!"
Upon hearing this, Yang Liu's face turned extremely ugly as she retorted sarcastically, "Leng Xuanhe, I didn’t expect you to be more diligent in calling my parents than I am. How considerate of you!"
In front of everyone, Leng Xuanhe appeared very cultured; at least he wore a smile on his face. He chuckled lightly, "Caring for your parents is what a junior should do."
Bai Zhuo stood by unnoticed and couldn’t help but mutter under his breath, "Trash."
The veins on Leng Xuanhe's forehead bulged as he struggled to contain his anger. Ignoring Bai Zhuo, he turned to Yang Liu and said, "Yang Liu, I like you. Trust me; I will change for you!"
"Waste!" Bai Zhuo interjected.
Leng Xuanhe clenched his fists tightly, suppressing his rage as he forced a smile. "Yang Liu, I will prepare the most luxurious and romantic wedding in Ningcheng for you! We can have both a traditional Chinese wedding and a Western one together. What do you think?"
As Leng Xuanhe continued talking to himself, even the gentle and mild-mannered Yang Liu felt the urge to hit someone. How much more so for Bai Zhuo?
Bai Zhuo sneered, "Useless! Don't forget the pain after the scars heal. Have you forgotten that slap from Yang Liu? Or are you so thick-skinned, Leng Xuanhe, that you want to present your other cheek after being slapped?"
Upon hearing this, Leng Xuanhe could no longer contain himself. His gaze swept over, and he reached out his right hand, ready to slap Bai Zhuo. Unexpectedly, Bai Zhuo was quicker, grabbing Leng Xuanhe's wrist and delivering a slap back to him with a loud crack!
"Wow!" "What the heck!" "Who is this person? So fierce, daring to slap Leng Xuanhe?" "Wah! My campus heartthrob..." Instantly, the surrounding students erupted in chatter. They never expected that someone in Ningcheng would dare to slap Leng Xuanhe in front of everyone!
"Ouch! That really hurts!" Xu Hang watched the scene unfold from above and called out in sympathy for Leng Xuanhe, chuckling to himself, "A useless person is still a useless person. Can't even handle a clown and ended up getting slapped back. The Leng Family's reputation has been completely tarnished; I can't wait to see how you handle this!"
Leng Xuanhe stared blankly at Bai Zhuo. Being slapped by Yang Liu was one thing, but now Bai Zhuo dared to strike him as well. He wore an incredulous expression and asked, "You dare to hit me, Bai?"
Bai Zhuo laughed disdainfully upon hearing this and raised his hand again as if to strike.
Leng Xuanhe instinctively recoiled, revealing five red finger marks on his fair and handsome face. Gritting his teeth, he spat out a harsh remark, "Damn it, Bai! Just you wait! I refuse to believe I can't deal with you! Hmph!"
With that, Leng Xuanhe left with the humiliating marks still visible on his face.
Not far away in a tall building, two familiar figures were seen moving by the window. One boy remarked, "Lady Sister, look over there; isn't that Leng Xuanhe getting slapped? Oh... that's Bai Zhuo?"
Kagura Aoi was not dressed in her usual kimono from that night but wore a simple shirt and flat canvas shoes. This outfit made her appear quite cute, though the impressive curves beneath her shirt were striking.
Kagura Aoi's expression was calm as she slightly furrowed her brows. "Gui Ye, I've told you before to learn more about Huaxia culture, but you refused to listen. There's an old saying in Huaxia—'It's easy to paint a tiger but hard to depict its bones; you can know someone's face but not their heart.' This saying is profound; keep it in mind at all times. Young Master Leng enduring such humiliation reminds me of a saying."
"What saying?"
"Enduring humiliation while carrying a burden."
Kagura Keiha frowned upon hearing this. "Enduring humiliation while carrying a burden? Lady Sister, do you mean..."
Kagura Aoi shook her head and gazed into the distance at the cityscape. "This is just my personal feeling. Gui Ye has always been dissatisfied with my choice of the Leng Family as our family's partner... Therefore, Young Master Leng's true nature still needs you to discover for yourself."
Kagura Keiha's expression was complex as he pondered her words. Kagura Aoi said, "Come on now; I believe the principal is almost done with his work. This year, Gui Ye should focus on studying at school and experience more of Huaxia's campus culture."
"Alright, Lady Sister..."
“Something feels off…” In the classroom, Leng Xuanhe's friend, Xu Hang, muttered to himself. “Such a loud slap, especially in front of Yang Liu, and he managed to hold back! Something's not right… something's definitely not right…”
Bai Zhuo watched as Leng Xuanhe gradually disappeared from view, puzzled. “Huh? That doesn’t make sense.”
“What’s wrong?” Yang Liu asked.
“Doesn’t he like you? He got slapped in front of you and didn’t retaliate… If it were me, I would have fought back right away!”
“Pfft! What’s so strange about that? Maybe he knows he can’t beat you and didn’t dare to confront you directly. He might just stab you in the back later. Oh, by the way, you should be careful. I didn’t pay much attention before, but I’ve heard that Leng Xuanhe is the type to seek revenge. He might not fight you face-to-face but will definitely cause trouble behind your back. Be cautious; I don’t want you to get hurt because of me.”
Bai Zhuo didn’t take Yang Liu’s words seriously and joked, “Can I take that as you’re concerned about me?”
Yang Liu’s face flushed red as she spat playfully, “Get lost! You pervert, who would care about you!”
The two laughed and left amidst the astonished gazes of those around them.
