Chapter 1

“Stop right there! Don’t run!”

I chased after a young woman with exquisite makeup and an enchanting figure, huffing and puffing.

Damn it, how can she run so fast in stilettos!

The fashionable young girl turned back to make a face at me, then turned around triumphantly and continued to run.

With a roar of anger, I leaped high and tackled her to the ground.

A crowd of onlookers quickly gathered around. Two women fighting-and pretty ones at that-instantly grabbed everyone’s attention. Many people even pulled out their phones to film us.

“What are you doing! Stop being a creep! Help, I’m being harassed!”

The girl’s hands flailed like a cat’s as she desperately punched and scratched at me, all while shouting at the top of her lungs:

“I already told you I have a boyfriend! I don’t like women, so stop pestering me! There’s no future for us!!!”

The crowd erupted. The onlookers’ thirst for gossip was instantly set ablaze.

“Hey, don’t push! My shoe fell off!”

“Move aside, you’re blocking my lens! I have a lot of followers, let me film first!”

I stared speechlessly at the young girl possessed by the female ghost, feeling a massive headache coming on. My brain throbbed painfully.

Bai Ling was a female ghost I had recently subdued. In her past life, she was a popular singer during the Republic of China era.

Because she offended a warlord’s concubine, she was strangled to death.

After her death, she transformed into a Vengeful Ghost. She frequently possessed the bodies of beautiful women to lure men, and once she got them into a room, she would absorb yang to nourish yin, sucking away their life force.

I hadn’t been keeping her locked up in my house for long when she somehow managed to escape last night.

“Shut up! Get out of there!”

I squeezed her middle finger hard, trying to force Bai Ling out of the body.

“Ow, ow, ow! Let go of me! I’m not coming out!”

Seeing that her ghostly form was about to be forced out, Bai Ling closed her eyes and steeled her heart. She grabbed my head, pressed her lips against mine, and blew a breath into my mouth.

The moment the ghostly energy entered my body, I froze completely.

Taking advantage of the opening, Bai Ling shoved me aside and scrambled to her feet to run. Before she fled, she didn’t forget to cast back a heartbroken, lonely look.

“I love you! But we have to bow to reality. Accept our fate and don’t come looking for me again!

“Just forget about me!”

After shouting that, she covered her face and pushed through the crowd, running away.

By the time my stiff body recovered, the crowd of onlookers had already boiled over with excitement.

Countless people surrounded me, recording videos and taking photos. I tried to push my way out several times but failed.

That devious female ghost!!!

Eventually, the traffic police arrived to disperse the crowd, allowing me to leave, but Bai Ling was long gone.

Heh. If you think you can escape my grasp, it won’t be that easy.

When I tackled her earlier, I had already slipped a tracking talisman into her pocket.
