Speaking of Science in a Supernatural Livestream 33

Chapter 33: Blushing and Shy

After returning from the registration office, Sang Jing noticed that something was off with Xie Yu. She was attached to the small paper effigy, silent, truly acting like a paper effigy. She didn’t even come out after returning to the hotel room.

The little black snake she had brought back ate and slept, and after a few days of recuperation, its injuries had healed a bit. It could now open its eyes and look around, and could also move a little.

Sang Jing cut up some raw meat and placed it in front of it, then glanced at the flat paper effigy on the table. It was still the same as when she had just returned, not having moved at all.

Sitting in front of the paper effigy, Sang Jing tapped the table with her fingertip. “Come out and eat.”

Still no movement.

Sang Jing frowned. She reached out and picked up the paper effigy to look at it.

There was nothing wrong with the paper effigy, so it must be that Xie Yu herself didn’t want to come out.

Is she… angry?

She didn’t have to think much to know why. Everything that had happened today was at the assessment registration office.

“Hasn’t he already been punished? Still angry?” Sang Jing thought she was angry at that goat-bearded man. That goat-bearded man had said she was a mess.

The paper effigy on the table suddenly flipped over and stood up. A wisp of white mist drilled out and floated to Sang Jing’s side, sitting down.

Xie Yu looked at Sang Jing unhappily. “Am I angry at him?”

Sang Jing looked at her glaring at her and asked hesitantly, “Then are you, angry at me?”

Xie Yu couldn’t hide things; her emotions were all on her face.

Sure enough, hearing her ask, Xie Yu snorted and turned her head away.

Sang Jing smiled, amused by her inexplicable temper.

So hard to please.

A ghost’s emotions were easily stimulated and fluctuated. Xie Yu’s malevolence had not yet been eliminated, so she couldn’t get too angry, otherwise, she would have to pay with her merit again.

Sang Jing clenched her hand. For the sake of an excellent graduation project, she would endure it.

“Why are you angry?” Sang Jing asked a ghost with the utmost patience.

Xie Yu slowly turned her head back and peeked at Sang Jing with her peripheral vision. Seeing that Sang Jing was looking at her sideways, she finally let out the anger she had been holding in all this way.

“When that old thing threw something over, I was worried about you, but you glared at me! So fiercely!”

Sang Jing: “…”

She’s this angry just because of that? She won’t even eat.

“He’s a Celestial Master, a six-coin Celestial Master. Do you know what he threw that you dared to block it? If I hadn’t pulled you, you’d be a puff of air by now. And you’re still angry,” Sang Jing said, then added with a hint of doubt, “I really don’t know how you escaped from those two Celestial Masters for three months.”

The tense expression on Xie Yu’s face began to loosen. At first, she was angry at Sang Jing’s attitude. In the short dramas she watched, the protagonists weren’t like that. Since Sang Jing was raising her like a wife, how could she glare at her so fiercely?

So, so she was afraid that old thing would hurt her.

Her anger completely dissipated. Xie Yu reached out and grabbed Sang Jing’s hand, then leaned over and kissed Sang Jing on the cheek. “Why are you so good?”

Sang Jing was stunned.

Sang Jing came back to her senses and looked at Xie Yu stiffly.

After two seconds, she stood up, blushing, a vein throbbing on her forehead. “What are you doing!?”

Xie Yu saw her blushing with shyness and was actually a little embarrassed herself. In the phone, the protagonists would kiss on the lips, but Xie Yu felt that was a bit too fast, so she had changed it to a kiss on the cheek to express her joy at this moment.

Sang Jing raised her hand, wanting to wipe her face. Halfway up, the phone on the table rang. She looked down at the number, picked it up, and walked out, not forgetting to wipe her face with her other hand. “Hello.”

Xie Yu didn’t notice her wiping her face, only seeing the red tip of her ear peeking out from her hair.

The little black snake on the table raised its upper body and tilted its head to look at Xie Yu, speaking, “She’s angry. Why are you still smiling?”

Xie Yu looked down at it and poked its head with her finger. “That’s not anger, it’s shyness. Do you know what shyness means? Oh, you’re just a little snake, you wouldn’t understand.”

The little black snake still had a shadow from her hand and quickly shot far away to hide from her, its crisp voice stubborn. “So what if I’m a snake? I know what shyness is. Lady Hei often tells us stories. That’s anger, not shyness!”

Xie Yu didn’t like hearing this.

Sang Jing’s face was red. How could it not be shyness? Blushing was a sign of shyness.

Sang Jing leaned against the wall at the door, answering the phone. Her expression was a little grim, and her tone was impatient. “Speak, what is it?”

“Oh, since when did the jinx dare to have such a temper? How many years has it been since you’ve been back? After your mother died, my family raised you, gave you food and drink, and let you go to school. We didn’t raise an ungrateful wolf, did we?” The person on the other end laughed, their words filled with blatant malice.

Sang Jing only said one thing, “What is it?”

“The old lady is dead. Aren’t you coming back?”

After this sentence, the other party hung up. Sang Jing remained in her posture of leaning against the wall, answering the phone.

After a long time, she lowered her hand and sighed softly. She had once wanted to completely cut ties with her past self, but her teacher had said that she still had a worldly fate and karma there.

Now, this lingering worldly fate and karma should be settled.

There were still five days until the Xuanmen assessment, enough time for her to go back and forth.

“Sang Jing?”

Hearing someone call her, Sang Jing subconsciously looked up.

Ying Laishi came over with a large bag of things, followed by a not-so-happy Shen Jue.

“Why are you standing outside?” Ying Laishi asked, handing over the things she had bought. “Want some? Take whatever you want.”

Sang Jing shook her head and asked her, “Why are you here too?”

Ying Laishi smiled and winked at her. “The day after you took leave, the boss said he wanted to redecorate the shop and gave me a vacation.”

“I was planning to have some fun, but who knew this one was so troublesome,” Ying Laishi said, turning her head and ruffling Shen Jue’s hair into a chicken’s nest. “She actually secretly ran to Xianling. How could I be at ease? I hurried over.”

“Ying Laishi! I’m not a child anymore,” Shen Jue said unhappily, pushing her hand away. The score on the road just now hadn’t been settled yet, and now there was another one.

Ying Laishi’s lips twitched. “You’re more troublesome than a child.”

Turning back, she saw Sang Jing’s dazed look and waved her hand in front of her eyes. “Sang Jing?”

Sang Jing came back to her senses. “Huh? What’s wrong?”

“Why are you so absent-minded?” Ying Laishi looked at her with concern. “Are you alright?”

“I’m fine,” Sang Jing smiled. “A vacation is good. Have fun, Sister Ying. I’m going in first.”

The door opened and closed. Sang Jing went into the house in front of the two of them.

She was clearly not in a good state.

Ying Laishi raised her hand and touched Shen Jue. “What’s wrong with her? Do you know?”

Shen Jue was busy writing in her notebook. “Oh, you’re so annoying.”

Hearing this, Ying Laishi stretched out her long arm and directly wrapped Shen Jue in her arms, walking forward with her. “You’ve grown some guts after not seeing me for a few days. You dare to find me annoying. Sister, I’ve used all my connections for you. Do you know? A lot of powerful people have come to Xianling recently. I’ll take you to see them tomorrow and help you get rid of the talisman on your back.”

Shen Jue couldn’t break free and could only bend over and let her walk with her.

After Sang Jing went in, she didn’t look at Xie Yu and directly started to pack her things.

The little black snake and Xie Yu were whispering. “See? I told you she was angry.”

Xie Yu looked at Sang Jing like this and was also a little unsure. Is she really angry?

She walked over, squatted down, and looked up at Sang Jing from the side of the bed.

Before she could ask.

Sang Jing tilted her chin towards the table over there. “Get into the paper effigy. We’re going out for a few days.”

“Where are we going?”

“Liangshui.”
