The train heading to Zhonghai City was speeding along swiftly.
Shui Miao was lying on the sleeper berth with his eyes closed, but his mind was racing with thoughts about everything that had happened recently. He was also contemplating how he could both protect his loved ones and handle the situation back home flawlessly. At the moment, Bai Feng and the Black Snake Demon were following him. The Black Snake Demon wasn’t much of a concern—it was just a minor follower, not particularly important. However, Bai Feng was a disciple of the thousand-year-old female ghost, Madame Bai. Bringing her along might interfere with his plans in some way. If that were the case, how should he respond? Should he make some arrangements in advance?
As Shui Miao was pondering these thoughts, he suddenly sensed a surge of cold, dark energy approaching. Opening his eyes, he saw Bai Feng already standing in front of him.
“Oh damn! Good thing I know her, otherwise I might’ve been scared to death!”
Shui Miao frowned slightly, slightly overwhelmed. “Senior Bai, do you need something?”
Bai Feng gently sat down and looked at Shui Miao. “There might be a lot of things happening once we get there. I want to talk with you about it.”
“Alright, Senior, you go first.” Shui Miao also wanted to talk to her.
“After all, you can just call me Bai Girl. Although I’m older than you, my abilities are far inferior to yours.” Bai Feng looked somewhat shy, completely different from her previously cold demeanor. “After going through so much, looking at things from an ordinary person’s perspective, I’m starting to question whether my actions were right. Perhaps my master does have her own selfish motives. Maybe she isn’t as good as I imagined her to be. Or perhaps you were right all along… So, I think we should first go and see what kind of person she really is. If she truly turns out to be a bad person, then I will cut all ties with her.”
What did that mean?
Shui Miao’s mind raced, quickly realizing that Bai Feng wanted to tag along with him!
Blinking his eyes, Shui Miao replied, “That’s hard to say. Your master is so powerful. Once we arrive, she’ll detect us immediately. Before we even have a chance to figure things out, she’ll come after me. Then, what are you planning to do?”
“Let’s figure it out when the time comes. Anyway, you rest now.”
Bai Feng didn’t want to dwell too much on things that hadn’t happened yet, and immediately got up and left.
She seemed to have reverted to her cold persona again. Had he said something wrong?
Shui Miao frowned slightly, feeling a bit speechless. By chance, he noticed a girl in a miniskirt glaring at him from the lower bunk. When their eyes met, the girl rolled her eyes and muttered to herself, “Country bumpkin! Trying to get my attention like this is so lame.”
“Pfft! What nonsense.”
Shui Miao scoffed disdainfully and started playing with his phone.
The train sped swiftly towards Zhonghai City.
Shui Miao lay on his bunk with his eyes closed, his mind occupied with the many events that had transpired recently. He was also thinking about how to protect his loved ones and handle everything perfectly once he returned. Now, he had Bai Feng and the Black Snake Demon by his side. The Black Snake Demon was nothing more than a minor follower—expendable and insignificant. But Bai Feng was a disciple of the thousand-year-old female ghost, Madame Bai. Bringing her along—would it adversely affect his plans? If so, how should he deal with it? Should he make some arrangements in advance?
As Shui Miao pondered, he sensed a chilling aura approaching. Opening his eyes, he saw Bai Feng standing before him.
“Damn! Good thing I know her, or I’d have been scared to death!”
Shui Miao frowned uncomfortably. “Senior Bai, is something the matter?”
Bai Feng sat down gently and looked at Shui Miao. “A lot might happen on this trip. I want to talk to you.”
“Alright, you go first, Senior.” Shui Miao had been meaning to talk to her as well.
“From now on, just call me Miss Bai. Although I’m older than you, my abilities are far inferior to yours.” Bai Feng seemed somewhat shy, a stark contrast to her usual cold demeanor. “After everything that’s happened, looking at it from an ordinary person’s perspective, I’m starting to doubt whether what I’ve done is right or wrong. Perhaps my master truly has selfish motives. Maybe she isn’t as good as I thought. Or maybe… you’re right. So, I think when we go this time, we should first see what kind of person she really is. If she’s truly not good, then I’ll cut ties with her.”
What did she mean?
Shui Miao’s mind raced. It seemed Bai Feng wanted to side with him!
Blinking, Shui Miao said, “It’s hard to say. Your master is so powerful. The moment we arrive, she’ll detect us. Before we can figure things out, she’ll come after me. What will you do then?”
“Let’s figure it out when the time comes. Alright, you should rest.” Unwilling to dwell on uncertainties, Bai Feng stood up and left immediately.
She seemed to have returned to her cold, detached self. Did I say something wrong?
Shui Miao frowned, feeling somewhat speechless. Casually, he noticed a girl in a miniskirt on the lower bunk glaring at him. When their eyes met, she rolled hers and muttered under her breath, “Country bumpkin. Trying to get my attention like that? So lame.”
“Tch! What nonsense.”
Shui Miao sneered disdainfully and started playing with his phone.
But shortly after, he sensed a demonic aura approaching. Turning his head, he saw the Black Snake Demon standing before him.
Seeing Shui Miao, the Black Snake Demon grinned. “Master…”
“What do you want now?”
Shui Miao was annoyed. The Black Snake Demon had a sly look on his face—was he after the Yin Saint Spirit again?
The Black Snake Demon glanced at the girl in the miniskirt and said creepily, “Master, she dared to disrespect you. Let me teach her a lesson!”
“Get lost, you idiot! What’s wrong with you?” Shui Miao flared up. The Black Snake Demon was becoming more and more outrageous.
Startled, the Black Snake Demon turned and fled.
“Idiot! Psycho! You piss me off!” The girl kicked the upper bunk. “I want to switch with you. You sleep down here; I’ll take the top.”
Shui Miao looked down—damn, she was exposed! He quickly pulled his head back.
The girl glanced at her thighs, blushed, and couldn’t help cursing, “Pervert! You disgusting creep!”
Her outburst caught the attention of many passengers. Shui Miao felt the heavy burden of their disdainful gazes, utterly mortified.
Being misunderstood by everyone was utterly frustrating.
Shui Miao sat up and had no choice but to respond, “Miss, have some self-respect! You’re sleeping below me and kicking me. Isn’t it natural for me to look down and see what you’re doing? Even if I accidentally saw something indecent, it’s your own fault. If you hadn’t kicked me, why would I look? Besides, how can a girl dressed like that have the nerve to blame others?”
“What? You disgusting creep still have the audacity to argue?” The hot-tempered girl leaned against Shui Miao’s bunk and pointed at him, shouting, “I want to switch with you! You sleep down here; I’ll take the top!”
“Why should I? I paid for the top bunk. Why should I let you have the comfortable spot?” Faced with such a person, Shui Miao didn’t hold back. Why should he give in? Was he that easy to push around?
“If you don’t come down, I’ll pull you down!”
“Tch!”
“Get down here…”
“Go away! Why should I give you my spot? Do you think you’re some big shot?”
“If you don’t come down, I’ll scream!”
“Go ahead, scream! No one will care even if you scream your lungs out!”
※※※
Shui Miao and the miniskirt girl argued back and forth. To the uninformed, their heated exchange might have hinted at something entirely different. Several lecherous men, who had initially looked down on Shui Miao, now watched with keen interest as the miniskirt girl stood on the second-tier bunk, her fair thighs fully exposed, engaged in a heated debate with him. Some even pulled out their phones to capture the scene. Not content with merely watching, a few encouraged the girl to climb up and drag Shui Miao down.
If the miniskirt girl climbed to the upper bunk, it’d be impossible for her not to expose herself.
A female train attendant approached. Seeing the girl’s inappropriate attire, she pulled her down and scolded, “What’s all this nonsense? If you want to embarrass yourself, do it at home! Dressed like that and harassing passengers—watch out, or we’ll have you arrested!”
Hearing this, the miniskirt girl flew into a rage and started arguing loudly with the attendant.
Then a male train attendant arrived. Without a word, he directly escorted the girl away.
Shui Miao glanced at the male attendant and realized he was possessed by the Black Snake Demon.
“Pretty clever…”
Shui Miao was somewhat surprised. Although the Black Snake Demon often had wicked ideas, overall, he wasn’t bad—at least he was clever and could help resolve some troubles. Unlike Bai Feng, who was unpredictable, blowing hot and cold. Just as Shui Miao was about to call his grandfather, Bai Feng suddenly appeared before him again.
“The Black Snake Demon is no good. You shouldn’t keep him around,” Bai Feng said sternly.
Shui Miao frowned and retorted, “Why do you say that?”
“He’s lustful!”
Even saying the word “lust” seemed difficult for Bai Feng.
Shui Miao sighed and shook his head. “Sister Bai, you’ve been a ghost for too long. You don’t know what a real pervert is. That Black Snake Demon at most has some wicked thoughts—he can’t really be called lustful. Besides, he’s a demon without a physical body, almost like a ghost. Even if he wanted to, he couldn’t engage in such acts. Unless he wants to die, he won’t attempt anything involving Yin-Yang interaction.”
“Fine. Since you say so, let him die then.”
After saying this, Bai Feng vanished again.
“…”
Shui Miao was speechless.
However, his words sent chills down the spines of those in nearby bunks. Everyone thought Shui Miao was either mentally ill or some kind of sinister figure—in any case, not someone to provoke.
Seeing Shui Miao, the Black Snake Demon grinned. “Master…”
“What do you want now?”
Shui Miao felt annoyed. This Black Snake Demon had such a scheming look on its face—was it trying to steal the Yin Holy Spirit again?
The Black Snake Demon glanced at the girl in the miniskirt and said in a creepy tone, “Master, she dared to defy you. Let me teach her a lesson.”
“Get lost, you bastard! What the hell are you thinking?” Shui Miao’s temper flared. The Black Snake Demon was getting out of hand.
Startled, the demon quickly turned and ran off.
“Idiot! Freak! You’re making me so mad!” The girl kicked the upper bunk and shouted, “I want to switch with you! You sleep downstairs, and I’ll sleep upstairs.”
Shui Miao looked down and—oh my! Her skirt had ridden up, exposing everything. He quickly pulled his head back.
The train sped swiftly towards Zhonghai City.
Shui Miao lay on his bunk with his eyes closed, his mind racing over the many events that had happened recently. He was also thinking about how to protect his loved ones and friends while handling everything perfectly once he returned. Now, he had Bai Feng and the Black Snake Demon with him. The Black Snake Demon was nothing more than a minor follower—expendable. But Bai Feng was a disciple of the thousand-year-old female ghost, Madame Bai. Bringing her along—could that negatively impact his plans? If so, how should he deal with it? Should he make some arrangements in advance?
As he pondered, Shui Miao sensed a chilling aura approaching. He opened his eyes to see Bai Feng standing right in front of him.
“Whoa! Good thing I know her, or I’d have been scared to death!”
Shui Miao frowned, unable to hide his discomfort. “Senior Bai, is something the matter?”
Bai Feng sat down gently and looked at him. “A lot might happen on this trip. I’d like to talk to you.”
“Alright, you go first, Senior.” Shui Miao had been meaning to speak with her as well.
“From now on, just call me Miss Bai. Although I’m older than you, my abilities are far inferior to yours.” Bai Feng seemed somewhat shy, a stark contrast to her usual cold demeanor. “After everything that’s happened, looking at it from an ordinary person’s perspective, I’m starting to doubt whether what I’ve done is right or wrong. Maybe my master really is selfish. Maybe she isn’t as good as I thought. Or maybe… you’re right. So this time, I think we should first see what kind of person she truly is. If she really is no good, I’ll cut ties with her.”
What did she mean by that?
Shui Miao’s mind raced—it sounded like Bai Feng wanted to side with him!
Blinking, he replied, “It’s hard to say. Your master is so powerful. The moment we arrive, she’ll detect us. Before we can even figure things out, she’ll come after me. What will you do then?”
“Let’s figure it out when the time comes. Anyway, you should rest.” Unwilling to dwell on uncertainties, Bai Feng stood up and left immediately.
She seemed to have reverted to her cold, detached self. Did I say something wrong? Shui Miao frowned, feeling somewhat speechless. Just then, he noticed a girl in a miniskirt on the lower bunk glaring at him. When their eyes met, she rolled hers and muttered under her breath, “What a country bumpkin. Trying to get my attention like that? So lame.”
“Tch! Whatever.” Shui Miao sneered dismissively and started playing with his phone.
But shortly after, he sensed a demonic aura approaching. Turning his head, he saw the Black Snake Demon standing before him.
Seeing Shui Miao, the Black Snake Demon grinned. “Master…”
“What do you want now?” Shui Miao asked, annoyed. The demon had a sly look—was it after the Yin Holy Spirit again?
The Black Snake Demon glanced at the miniskirt girl and said creepily, “Master, she dared to disrespect you. Let me teach her a lesson!”
“Get lost, you idiot! What’s wrong with you?” Shui Miao flared up angrily. This demon was getting out of hand.
Startled, the Black Snake Demon turned and scurried away.
“Idiot! Psycho! You’re pissing me off!” The girl kicked the upper bunk and said, “I want to switch with you. You take the lower bunk; I’ll take the upper.”
Shui Miao looked down—damn, she was exposed! He quickly pulled his head back.
The girl glanced at her thighs, blushed, and couldn’t help cursing, “Pervert! You creep!”
Her outburst drew the attention of many passengers. Shui Miao felt everyone’s disdainful stares, making him extremely awkward.
Being misunderstood by everyone was utterly frustrating.
Sitting up, Shui Miao had no choice but to respond, “Miss, have some self-respect! You’re sleeping below me and kicking my bunk. Isn’t it natural for me to look down and see what you’re doing? Even if I accidentally saw something indecent, it’s your own fault. If you hadn’t kicked me, why would I look? Besides, a young lady dressed like that—how can you blame others?”
“What? You creep, you think you’re in the right?!” The hot-tempered girl climbed onto Shui Miao’s bunk, pointing at him and shouting, “I want to switch! You take the lower bunk; I’ll take the upper!”
“Why should I? I paid for the upper bunk. Why should I let you have the comfortable spot?” Faced with such a person, Shui Miao wasn’t about to back down. Why should he give in? Did she think he was easy to push around?
“If you don’t come down, I’ll pull you down!”
“Tch!”
“Get down here…”
“Go away! Why should I give you my spot? Who do you think you are?”
“If you don’t come down, I’ll scream!”
“Go ahead, scream! No one will care even if you lose your voice!”
※※※
Back and forth, Shui Miao and the miniskirt girl argued. To anyone unaware, their heated exchange might have sounded like something entirely different was going on. Several lecherous men who had initially looked down on Shui Miao now watched with interest as the girl stood on the second-tier bunk arguing with him, her fair thighs completely exposed. Some even took out their phones to record the scene. Not satisfied with just watching, a few urged the girl to climb up and drag Shui Miao down.
If she climbed up to the upper bunk in that miniskirt, she’d definitely be exposed.
A female train attendant walked over. Seeing the girl’s inappropriate attire, she pulled her down and scolded, “What’s all this nonsense? If you want to embarrass yourself, do it at home! Dressed like that and harassing passengers—watch out, or we’ll have you detained.”
Hearing this, the miniskirt girl flew into a rage and started arguing loudly with the attendant.
Then a male train attendant arrived. Without a word, he directly escorted the girl away.
Shui Miao glanced at the male attendant and realized he was possessed by the Black Snake Demon.

Unlike Bai Feng, who was unpredictable, blowing hot and cold. Just as Shui Miao was about to call his grandfather, Bai Feng suddenly appeared before him again.
“The Black Snake Demon is no good. You shouldn’t keep it around,” Bai Feng said sternly.
Shui Miao frowned and retorted, “Why do you say that?”
“It’s lustful!” The word “lust” seemed almost too embarrassing for Bai Feng to say.
Shui Miao sighed and shook his head. “Sister Bai, you’ve been a ghost for too long. You don’t even know what a real pervert is. That Black Snake Demon is, at most, a little wicked—it can’t be called lustful. Besides, it’s a demon without a physical body, almost like a ghost. Even if it wanted to indulge in lust, it couldn’t! Matters of yin and yang—unless it wants to die, it wouldn’t dare.”
“Fine. Since you say so, let it die then.” With those words, Bai Feng vanished again.
“…” Shui Miao was left speechless.
However, his words sent chills down the spines of nearby passengers. They all thought Shui Miao was either mentally unstable or some kind of sinister figure—definitely not someone to mess with.
As soon as the girl spoke, many people turned to look. Shui Miao was now the target of many disapproving glances, feeling extremely embarrassed.
Being misunderstood by everyone was really frustrating.
Shui Miao sat up and had no choice but to respond, “Young lady, please show some self-respect! You’re sleeping beneath me, and you kicked me with your feet. When I looked down, what else could I see but what you were doing? Isn’t that only natural? Even if I accidentally saw something indecent, it’s entirely your own fault! If you hadn’t kicked me, why would I look at you? Besides, a young lady dressing like that, how can you still blame others!?”
The train sped swiftly towards Zhonghai City.
Shui Miao lay on his bunk with his eyes closed, his mind preoccupied with the many events that had unfolded recently. He was also thinking about how to protect his loved ones and friends while ensuring everything would be handled perfectly upon his return. Currently, he was accompanied by Bai Feng and the Black Snake Demon. The Black Snake Demon was nothing more than a minor follower—expendable and insignificant. But Bai Feng was a disciple of the millennia-old female ghost, Madame Bai. Bringing her along—would that have an adverse effect on his plans? If so, how should he deal with it? Should he make some arrangements in advance?

“Let’s figure it out when the time comes. For now, get some rest.”
Unwilling to dwell on uncertainties, Bai Feng stood up and left immediately.
She seemed to have reverted to her cold, detached self. Did I say something wrong?
Shui Miao frowned, feeling somewhat speechless. Casually, he noticed a girl in a miniskirt on the lower bunk glaring at him. When their eyes met, she rolled hers and muttered under her breath, “Country bumpkin. Trying to get my attention like that? So lame.”

Shui Miao and the miniskirt girl engaged in a heated back-and-forth argument. To an outsider, their raised voices might have hinted at a completely different scenario. Several men, who had initially looked down on Shui Miao, now watched with keen interest as the miniskirt girl stood on the second-tier bunk, her fair thighs fully exposed, passionately arguing with him. Some even pulled out their phones to capture the scene. Not content with merely observing, a few encouraged the girl to climb up and physically drag Shui Miao down.
If the miniskirt girl climbed to the upper bunk, it’d be impossible for her not to expose herself.
A female train attendant approached. Seeing the girl’s inappropriate attire, she pulled her down and scolded, “What’s all this nonsense? If you want to embarrass yourself, do it at home! Dressed like that and harassing passengers—watch out, or we’ll have you detained.”

With those words, Bai Feng vanished again.
“…”
Shui Miao was speechless.
However, his words sent chills down the spines of those in nearby bunks. Everyone thought Shui Miao was either mentally unstable or some kind of sinister figure—someone best not provoked.
The girl, with her fiery temper, grabbed the edge of Shui Miao’s bed and pointed at him, shouting, “I want to switch! You sleep downstairs, and I sleep upstairs!”
“Why should I? I paid for the upper bunk. Why should I let you have the comfortable spot?” Facing someone like this, Shui Miao wasn’t backing down either. Why should he give in? Did she think he was that easy to boss around?
“If you don’t come down, I’ll drag you down!”
“Pfft!”
“You come down right now…”
“Get lost! Why should I give up my spot? Do you think you’re the queen of the world or something!?”
“If you don’t come down now, I’ll scream!”
“Scream all you want! No one will care even if you scream your lungs out!”
※※※
Shui Miao and the girl in the miniskirt started arguing back and forth. Those who didn’t know the situation might think that this couple was doing something inappropriate together. Several lustful men, who had originally looked at Shui Miao with disdain, now saw the girl standing on the upper bunk, arguing with him, her white thighs fully exposed. Many of them started staring lustfully, and some even took out their phones to record. After watching for a while, some people even encouraged the girl to climb up and drag Shui Miao down.
If the girl in the miniskirt climbed up to the upper bunk, there was no way she wouldn’t expose herself.
A female train attendant approached and, seeing the girl’s indecent attire, grabbed her and scolded, “What are you doing here? If you want to shame yourself, do it at home! A young lady dressing like that and harassing passengers—be careful, we might take you in!”
Hearing this, the girl in the miniskirt became furious and started arguing loudly with the train attendant.
Then a male train attendant arrived and, without saying a word, directly escorted the girl away.
Shui Miao looked at the male train attendant and realized he was possessed by the Black Snake Demon.
“Not bad… quite clever.”
Shui Miao was somewhat surprised. Although the Black Snake Demon often had evil thoughts, overall it wasn’t that bad. At least it was clever and could help him deal with some trouble. Unlike Bai Feng, who was cold one moment and warm the next, making her hard to figure out. Just as Shui Miao was about to call his grandfather, Bai Feng suddenly appeared in front of him again.
“The Black Snake Demon is a bad creature. You can’t bring it along.”
Bai Feng spoke with a sense of moral righteousness.
Shui Miao frowned and countered, “Why do you say that?”
“He’s lustful!”
The word “lustful” was so difficult for Bai Feng to say that she almost couldn’t bring herself to utter it.
The train sped swiftly towards Zhonghai City.
Shui Miao lay on his bunk with his eyes closed, his mind preoccupied with the many events that had occurred recently. He was also thinking about how to protect his loved ones and friends while handling everything perfectly upon his return. Now, he had Bai Feng and the Black Snake Demon by his side. The Black Snake Demon was nothing more than a minor follower, dispensable at best. But Bai Feng was a disciple of the thousand-year-old female ghost, Madame Bai. Bringing her along—could that have an adverse effect on his plans? If so, how should he deal with it? Should he make some arrangements in advance?
As Shui Miao pondered, he sensed a chilling aura approaching. Opening his eyes, he saw Bai Feng standing before him.
“Damn! Good thing I know her, or I’d have been scared to death!”
Shui Miao frowned, unable to hide his discomfort. “Senior Bai, is something the matter?”
Bai Feng sat down gently and looked at Shui Miao. “A lot might happen on this trip. I wanted to talk to you.”
“Alright, Senior, please go ahead.” Shui Miao had been meaning to speak with her as well.
“From now on, just call me Miss Bai. Although I’m older than you, my abilities are far inferior to yours.” Bai Feng seemed somewhat shy, a stark contrast to her usual cold demeanor. “After everything that’s happened, from an ordinary person’s perspective, I’m starting to doubt whether what I’ve done is right or wrong. Perhaps my master truly has selfish motives. Maybe she isn’t as good as I thought. Or maybe you’re right… So, I think when we go this time, we should first see what kind of person she really is. If she’s truly not good, then I’ll cut ties with her.”
What did she mean?
Shui Miao’s mind raced. It seemed like Bai Feng wanted to follow him!
Blinking, Shui Miao said, “It’s hard to say. Your master is so powerful. The moment we arrive, she’ll detect us. Before we can figure anything out, she’ll come after me. What do you plan to do then?”
“Let’s figure it out when the time comes. Alright, you should rest.” Unwilling to dwell on uncertainties, Bai Feng stood up and left immediately.
She seemed to have returned to her cold, detached self. Did I say something wrong?
Shui Miao frowned, feeling somewhat speechless. Casually, he noticed a girl in a miniskirt on the lower bunk glaring at him. When their eyes met, she rolled hers and muttered under her breath, “Country bumpkin. Trying to get my attention like that? So lame.”
“Tch! What nonsense.”
Shui Miao sneered dismissively and started playing with his phone.
But shortly after, he sensed a demonic aura approaching. Turning his head, he saw the Black Snake Demon standing before him.
Seeing Shui Miao, the Black Snake Demon grinned. “Master…”
“What do you want now?”
Shui Miao was exasperated. The Black Snake Demon had a sly look on his face—was he after the Yin Saint Spirit again?
The Black Snake Demon glanced at the girl in the miniskirt and said lewdly, “Master, she dared to disrespect you. Let me teach her a lesson!”
“Get lost, you idiot! What’s wrong with you?” Shui Miao’s anger flared. The Black Snake Demon was becoming more and more outrageous.
Startled, the Black Snake Demon turned and fled.
“Idiot! Psycho! You piss me off!” The girl kicked the upper bunk and said, “I want to switch with you. You sleep down here; I’ll take the top.”
Shui Miao looked down and—damn, she was exposed! He quickly pulled his head back.
The girl glanced at her thighs, blushed, and couldn’t help cursing, “Pervert! You disgusting creep!”
Her sudden outburst drew the attention of numerous passengers. Shui Miao felt the heavy burden of their disdainful stares, utterly mortified.
Being misunderstood by everyone was utterly frustrating.
Sitting up, Shui Miao had no choice but to respond, “Miss, please have some self-respect! You’re sleeping below me and kicking me. I looked down to see what you were doing—isn’t that natural? Even if I happened to see something unsightly, it’s your own fault. If you hadn’t kicked me, why would I look? Besides, a young lady dressed like that—how can you blame others?”
“What? You disgusting creep still have the nerve to argue?” The hot-tempered girl leaned against Shui Miao’s bunk and pointed at him, shouting, “I want to switch with you! You sleep down here; I’ll take the top!”
“Why should I? I paid for the upper bunk. Why should I let you have the comfortable spot?” Faced with such a person, Shui Miao didn’t hold back. Why should he give in? Was he that easy to push around?
“If you don’t come down, I’ll pull you down!”
“Tch!”
“Get down here…”
“Go away! Why should I give you my spot? Do you think you’re the boss or something?”
“If you don’t come down, I’ll scream!”
“Go ahead, scream! No one will care even if you strain your voice!”
※※※
Shui Miao and the miniskirt girl engaged in a heated back-and-forth argument. To an outsider, their raised voices might have hinted at something more intense unfolding. Several lecherous men, who had initially looked down on Shui Miao, now watched with keen interest as the girl in the miniskirt stood on the second-tier bunk, arguing with him, her fair thighs completely exposed. Some even pulled out their phones to capture the scene. After observing for a while, someone encouraged the girl to climb up and drag Shui Miao down.
If the miniskirt girl climbed to the upper bunk, it’d be impossible for her not to expose herself.
A female train attendant approached. Seeing the girl’s inappropriate attire, she pulled her down and scolded, “What’s all this nonsense? If you want to embarrass yourself, do it at home! Dressed like that and harassing passengers—watch out, or we’ll have you arrested.”
Hearing this, the miniskirt girl flew into a rage and started arguing loudly with the attendant.
Then a male attendant arrived. Without a word, he directly escorted the girl away.
Shui Miao glanced at the male attendant and realized he was possessed by the Black Snake Demon.
“Pretty clever…”
Shui Miao was somewhat surprised. Although the Black Snake Demon often had wicked ideas, overall, he wasn’t bad—at least he was clever and could help resolve some troubles. Unlike Bai Feng, who was unpredictable, blowing hot and cold. Just as Shui Miao was about to call his grandfather, Bai Feng suddenly appeared before him again.
“The Black Snake Demon is no good. You shouldn’t keep him around,” Bai Feng said sternly.
Shui Miao frowned and retorted, “Why do you say that?”
“He’s lustful!”
Even the word “lust” seemed difficult for Bai Feng to utter.
Shui Miao sighed and shook his head. “Sister Bai, you’ve been a ghost for too long. You don’t know what a real pervert is. That Black Snake Demon at most has some wicked thoughts—he can’t really be called lustful. Besides, he’s a demon without a physical body, almost like a ghost. Even if he wanted to, he couldn’t do anything. Matters of yin and yang—unless he wants to die, he wouldn’t dare.”
“Fine. Since you say so, let him die then.”
After saying this, Bai Feng vanished again.
“…”
Shui Miao was speechless.
However, his words sent chills down the spines of those in nearby bunks. Everyone thought Shui Miao was either mentally ill or some kind of sinister figure—someone not to be trifled with.
“Fine, since you say so, then let him go ahead and die.”
After saying this, Bai Feng disappeared in a flash.
“…”
Shui Miao was speechless once again.
However, his words had been overheard by people on nearby berths, and they all felt a chill run down their spines. Everyone began to think that Shui Miao must have some kind of problem—either mentally ill or some kind of evil person. Either way, he was someone best avoided.
