The Gentle Ghost Husband
1
There is an extra person in my room, or maybe not a person.
It’s… a ghost.
He is a ghost with obsessive-compulsive disorder, and he is also a ghost who tries to use his beauty to seduce me into falling in love with him.
2
I am twenty-three years old and have just come to this strange city to work hard on my own.
Rented a small single room.
When I moved in, I felt the house was exceptionally clean.
Everything was spotless and everything was neatly arranged.
But I just can’t stand it. At home, my parents nag me all the time, but when I live alone, I can do whatever I want. So what if I throw the remote control away?
Anyway, no one talks about me anymore.
As for the quilt, it doesn’t matter if you don’t fold it up early in the morning. It’s good for your health to keep it messy like this.
Get up early the next day.
I went to work happily, and when I came back and opened the door, I was stunned.
Everything that I had thrown around was put in place neatly, even the quilt on the bed was folded neatly, just like the tofu blocks required by the instructors during military training.

I ran to question the landlord why someone broke into my room and helped me pack my things.
The landlord was confused and said I was crazy. I wanted someone to help clean the house for 500 yuan in rent.
I refused to believe it, so I bought a surveillance camera and pointed it at the entire living room and the bed.
When I went to work in the morning, I threw the quilt directly on the ground and scattered the pillows on the sofa.
At the company, while the boss wasn’t paying attention, I slacked off and watched the surveillance cameras, and there was no movement for the entire day.
I thought he was scared.
I blindly guessed that it was the landlord who forgot that the house was rented out so he came here to clean. He was afraid that I would accuse him of stealing, so he would never admit it. Now that I made a fuss about it, he will definitely not come.
When I get home from get off work.
I bought a new door lock on purpose and planned to replace it when I get back.
But the moment the door opened, I was stunned.
Everything was neatly arranged, just as I saw it when I got home from get off work yesterday. Even my toothbrush, which I usually turned upside down, was now turned upside down.
When I turned on the surveillance camera again, it was still messy, completely different from what I saw in front of me.
This moment…
I wonder if there is something wrong with my eyes or the surveillance camera.

“No way?”
“Haunted?”
“Or a ghost who will help you clean up the house?”
“What does he want?”
“Could it be that he is attracted by your beauty and wants to conquer you through his kindness?”
The person who was speaking was my best friend, who lived in another city and lived the same life as me. She had a heart longing for love, and she immediately imagined a love story between a human and a ghost.
A ghost husband has to be tall, handsome and rich, like the ghost king, who can make a fortune with a snap of his fingers and is omnipotent.
I hung up directly.
This woman is a talker. If you believe her, you will die miserably.
I went to the landlord to check out.
When the landlord heard about the haunting, his face suddenly darkened and he told me to stop talking nonsense. He said I could check out but the deposit of one thousand yuan would not be refunded.
Neuropathy!
You want to deduct a thousand dollars from me?
For a thousand bucks, I don’t even have to be afraid of ghosts.
When I left the landlord’s house, I slammed the door very loudly.
Vent your anger.
But in the end, I still have to go back to the rental house.
In fact, I am not interested at all in the handsome faces sculpted by Greek craftsmen that my best friend imagined. I just want to know if he can really get a lot of gold with just a snap of his fingers.

“Uncle Ghost, I don’t discriminate against any species. I’m just a bit timid. So you can live here and help me clean the room, but don’t scare me.”
Put your hands together.
Be extremely respectful.
Nod and bow.
This is the first time in my 23 years of life that I feel so frightened.
Anyway, the other party was very disrespectful.
I talked for a long time, but there was no response at all. I didn’t even know whether it was a boy or a girl.
My best friend was very excited and kept sending me messages asking me what it felt like to live with a ghost. She also told me to look in the mirror at midnight to see what my ghost husband looked like and whether he was extremely handsome.
So, it’s okay for a young girl to be in love, but she really should read less of those messy love stories.
Look at what it has become.
I was scared to death, and she was trying to stir up the rhythm of “Let’s Fall in Love”, which made me feel confused and I didn’t know whether I should be excited or afraid.
Anyway, everything is going well.
When I come home from work every day, the rental house is always clean.
My best friend said that this ghost husband is amazing, a typical good husband and father, and asked me to work hard to make money and marry him.
If we were not far away, I would have slapped her. What is going on in her mind?
Doing housework makes you a good husband and father?
At least you can serve me a bowl of hot noodles when I get home from get off work.
When I said this, I was cooking noodles and said to my bestie on the other end of the video: “It would be better to have a poached egg and two fried sausages.”
Get off work the next day.
As soon as the door opened, the air was filled with a rich aroma of eggs.
On the small dining table in the living room.
A bowl of noodles with a poached egg on top and two fried sausages on the side, everything is just perfect.
Oh shit!
Oh no!
I wanted to run away, but for some reason I took out my phone and took a picture to show my bestie.
At a time like this, what a damn vanity!
I also added a picture: “Look, a good husband and a good father, this is what you want.”

“What the hell!”
“He really cooked noodles for you?”
“Really? You cooked it yourself and you’re trying to fool me?”
“Why didn’t I get such a good thing?”
My best friend was shouting and screaming over there, which made me, who originally wanted to run away, actually feel a little excited.
When you are in love, you are not afraid of any ghost.
Sit on the sofa.
Open whole.
“You know what, this noodle is cooked just right, the timing is so accurate, if I had come back a few minutes later, this noodle would have definitely been clumped up.”
“He’s so virtuous, why don’t you just marry him? If it were me, I would immediately look in the mirror at midnight to see what he looks like.”
My best friend appeared on the screen, wearing a facial mask. I was so scared that I almost threw my phone away.
In her words, if you look in the mirror at midnight you will see ghosts. If that doesn’t work, then peel an apple and as long as the skin is intact you can make a wish.
How could I do such a stupid thing?
It just happened to be twelve o’clock when I passed by on my way to the bathroom.
I looked in the mirror and saw nothing, so I said it was impossible. Even if there was a ghost, would someone come to the bathroom at midnight to watch you go to the toilet?
But I am sure of one thing, that ghost can hear me talking and seems to want to be with me.
Because the next day when I got home from get off work, there were noodles, fried eggs, and two sausages.
There seems to be something wrong with the surveillance camera.
Judging from the surveillance footage, the dining table was very clean and there was nothing on it.
When I looked at it with my naked eyes, the bowl of noodles was still steaming and smelled delicious. The guy’s cooking skills were quite good.
“Now all that’s left is to see if he’s handsome. Let him come out and meet me. If he’s handsome, then I’ll accept him if you don’t want to.”
My bestie couldn’t wait to pack her bags.
She fell in love with this ghost. How great is he? He loves to clean the house, can cook, and doesn’t talk nonsense.
Come to think of it.
No matter what, we have to meet each other first and see what they look like.

“Ten Ways to See a Ghost, the first one is to wipe your eyes with cow’s tears.”
“Where can I find cow’s tears?”
“Hey, the second one is better. Even if you hold an umbrella indoors, you can still see ghosts.”
It just so happens that I have an umbrella.
Late at night, I walked around the room with an umbrella.
Wardrobe……
Under the bed…
I watched them all.
Forget ghosts, there isn’t even a single cockroach.
“Is he so ugly that he doesn’t dare to see you?”
My best friend looks like a slut.
Me: “That’s possible. Ghosts in movies are all very scary. They might just roll their eyes and smash the ground.”
“Hey, stop talking. Destroy my fantasy about my ghost husband.”
My best friend hung up immediately.
This stuff is really not reliable at all.
I was about to fold my umbrella when there was a knock on the door.
At this time of night, no one would be interested in a single beautiful girl like me.
I took a quick look through my cat’s eyes. He had a melon-seed chin, a protruding Adam’s apple, and a slightly open white shirt. He was definitely not the fat landlord.
A single beautiful girl will never open the door to a stranger.
What’s more, it’s night.
So I asked him, “Who are you? Why are you knocking on my door so late at night?”
There was no answer from outside the door.
I took out my phone and called my bestie, pressing speaker: “Honey, there’s a knock on the door.”
“Who is it?”
My best friend is really good at handling things. She uses a voice changer and is very strong. Her deep voice exudes unparalleled intimidation.
“Oh……”
There was a faint laugh outside the door. I glanced again and the person was finally gone.
“You must have scared him away.”
I looked at my phone and my bestie was looking at my umbrella: “That person knocking on the door just now, could it be a ghost?”
I shuddered and looked outside again, but saw nothing.
“What does that person look like?”
“Is he handsome?”
“Is it the legendary male protagonist’s face?”
She started to gossip again, looking so excited as if there really was a ghost outside.
Logically I should be scared, but after she messed me up like this, I don’t know whether I should be scared or what to do.
“I didn’t see her face, but I saw her chin and neck. It looked OK, pretty… pretty clean.”
I described it as I folded my umbrella.
Girlfriend: “Tsk, tsk, tsk, clean, they are usually handsome guys.”
This time it’s my turn to hang her up. She always talks about handsome guys. I’ll install surveillance cameras outside tomorrow.

The next night.
It was already past twelve o’clock when I walked out of the company and the last bus had missed it.
As a corporate slave, not only do I have to work 996 hours a day, but I am also forced to work overtime by my unscrupulous boss. I am really full of resentment.
The most important thing is that the bowl of noodles in my house must be clumpy.
The rental house is only three stops away from the company, and it’s not cost-effective to take a taxi, so I plan to walk back.
Just take a walk. You’ve been sitting for a whole day, right? Anyway, I won’t admit that I’m poor.
It’s only been my first month of work and I haven’t received my salary yet. I rented a house but the landlord still withheld one thousand yuan from me.
Life…
Every step is difficult.
The good thing about big cities is that they are still brightly lit even in the middle of the night, but there are a lot more messy people.
This is not…
I was stuck in an alley.
Now I really want to slap myself a few times. Why did I take such a shortcut?
This is not taking a shortcut.
This is simply seeking death. He wants to live longer and is taking the path to the Naihe Bridge.
“Beauty?”
“one person?”
“Are you in a relationship? Come and play with me?”
The man had been drinking and came over drunk, smelling foul.
“This is my girlfriend.”
Someone grabbed his collar and dragged him backwards.
The man fell.
I looked up and saw that melon-seed-like chin, and then I looked up…
“Senior?”
I know this guy. He is the school idol who is one grade higher than me and the idol that my best friend admires.
I hadn’t heard from you since graduation, I didn’t expect to meet you here.
“Let’s go. I’ll take you back.”
He turned and walked forward, and I hurriedly followed him in small steps: “Senior, why are you here?”
“I just happened to be passing by.”
“Oh, thank goodness you’re here, or I’d be screwed.”
“yes.”
His answer was very cold. I didn’t care. He saved your life, what else do you want?
When we got home, I invited him in to sit down.
He looked at me meaningfully, said, “Good night,” and then left.
I was stunned for a long time before I remembered that I hadn’t even added the person on WeChat.
Oh my god!
At least they saved your life.
Mo Xiaocong, you are really a green onion, you deserve to be single.

“Oh My God!”
“How lucky are you that the school hunk rescued you and sent you home?”
My best friend was startled on the other end.
I opened a bag of potato chips and said happily, “I’m having a lot of luck with romance lately.”
“Eh?”
“etc.”
“Don’t you already have a ghost husband?”
My best friend reminded me that the bowl of noodles that was served when I entered the door was gone tonight.
The table is clean.
I took a bite of potato chips fiercely: “That guy didn’t cook noodles for me tonight, so I decided to divorce him and try my best to marry the school hunk.”
“I’m a ghost, can you at least give me some respect and speak in a more secretive way?”
My best friend rolled her eyes and said, “You’re not afraid of being possessed by a ghost in the middle of the night.”
“I don’t care anyway. Don’t even think about snatching the school hunk from me.”
As soon as the video ended, I went to take a shower.
Recalling the scene where the hero rescued the beauty, I felt so regretful. How could I forget to add WeChat?
At least say thank you to them and treat them to a meal or something.
When I opened the bathroom door, the familiar smell of flour hit my nose, which made me shudder instantly.
On the small dining table, there were freshly cooked noodles, fried eggs, and two sausages.
That thing is still there.
Then didn’t he hear everything I just said to my bestie?
It would be a lie to say that I’m not afraid. After all, I have done something wrong. Who wouldn’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night?
Normally, I eat noodles as a matter of course, but now I eat them with trepidation. After organizing the words several times:
“Well, what?”
“What I said to my bestie before was actually a joke.”
“real.”
“I am a human. How can a human marry a ghost?”
“I can’t see you or touch you, right?”
“Besides.”
“Ghosts don’t need wives either, and they can’t kiss or cuddle…”
10
I shut up. What a bunch of bullshit. It seemed like I was hinting at someone to hug me.
Fortunately, that ghost was magnanimous and ignored me from beginning to end.
The next day after get off work,
As soon as I walked out of the company, I heard a voice calling: “Mo Xiaocong.”
Clean and crisp.
The male god is worthy of being a male god, and his voice is so nice.
“Why are you here?”
I was shocked and even a little delighted. Could he be waiting for me here?
I am a fairy who is as beautiful as a flower. If a male god falls in love with me, it is not impossible for me to marry him.
“I just got off work. I didn’t expect you to come out from inside.”
The male god raised his chin slightly and pointed to the building behind me.
Me: “What a coincidence? You work here too?”
“Um.”
His voice was cold and indifferent, and without waiting for me to say anything, he turned and walked towards the bus stop.
I quickly followed him: “Why haven’t I seen you before?”
“Oh.”
He smiled.
Under the moonlight.
This slightly raised corner of the lips is really damn charming.
I was a little stunned for a moment, until he turned to look at me and said, “How many days have you only been working here?”
“Five days.”
I quickly looked away and pointed to the bus stop: “I’ll wait for the bus there.”
“Me too.”
The corners of his lips curled up: “Bus No. 32.”
“What a coincidence! I also take bus No. 32. We are really destined to meet.”
It is destined by heaven that the male god is destined to be mine.
I probably smiled like a nympho, and the man looked at me with meaningful eyes.
An even better coincidence came.
We got off at the same stop, and he dropped me off at my doorstep before leaving.
I originally wanted to ask him to come in and sit down, but he just stood at the door, said good night gently, and left.
He is such a gentleman, very polite and doesn’t give people the impression that he is in any danger.
“What’s the name of your company?”
“I’m sending in my resume now. I want to change jobs. I want to meet my dream man.”
My bestie was chattering on the other end of the phone, and I smiled and said, “It’s too late, my man is definitely in my hands.”
“Ahhh.”
“Break up!”
My best friend hung up right away. She was so angry that she didn’t even ask me how I was getting along with my ghost husband.
There is no noodles on the table.
I went to take a shower and when I came out, the noodles smelled delicious and had just been served.
I looked around and didn’t see any ghost, which made me feel even more uneasy. I was eating other people’s noodles, but in my heart I was in love with the man’s face. What do you call this?
11
I am kind by nature!
But God wants me to be a sea king who raises fish.
My bestie said she had to meet him no matter what to see who is more handsome than the ghost.
What if the ghost is more handsome?
The ghost husbands in novels are all so handsome that they make heaven and earth tremble. I must not miss them.
He even said with a sly smile that she not only has the ghost husband’s face, but also the ghost husband’s waist, and more importantly, she can make a fortune with a snap of her fingers, so why should I be a social animal? Isn’t it good to be supported by a ghost husband, buy things every day, eat, drink, play and show off?
I hung up immediately. I saw through it all. She just wanted me to dump my boyfriend so that she could get him at a bargain price. Could a beautiful girl like me be such a face-obsessed, materialistic scumbag?
I just…
Hmm…
I was a little curious about the ghost husband, so I went online to buy cow’s tears. I would like to thank the almighty Taobao.
Can you imagine?
There are not only cow’s tears on it, but also a ghost-sending set meal.
The owner also said that the ghost meal was 50% off.
He said that after I see the ghost, I will need this package and it will be too late to buy it.
I thank him.
Since it was a good deal, I bought them together.
My best friend was more excited than me and insisted that I take a picture of the ghost and show it to her.
This is really unscientific. If cameras can capture ghosts, I wouldn’t have installed the surveillance camera outside the door.
In order to kill the ghost by surprise.
After saying goodbye to my idol at the door, I went straight into the bathroom.
Boil water and pretend to take a bath.
Then he put some cow’s tears on his eyes and quietly pushed the door open to walk out.
No shoes on.
Standing on tiptoe and crouching, she moved towards the kitchen little by little.
The fire is burning.
The water is boiling.
Looking inside…
12
I suspected that the shop owner was selling fake cow’s tears. He clearly said that it could see ghosts. The kitchen was empty, with only the fire burning and the water boiling, but nothing else.
I took out my phone and took a photo to show my bestie. She looked disappointed and said, “Oh, this ghost husband is really well hidden.”
“Is he ugly? That’s why he hides like this.”
I really went to take a shower.
Come out of the shower.
There was cooked noodles on the table, and a small note: I am not ugly.
“The handwriting is elegant and vigorous. He looks like a handsome guy.”
My best friend’s eyes lit up, and I suspected that she was attracted to my boyfriend, so she encouraged me to marry a ghost husband.
If you are not ugly, why are you afraid to see people?
Even an ugly daughter-in-law has to meet her parents-in-law, let alone want to date me.
After eating noodles, go to sleep.
As for the ghost-sending package that the store owner persuaded me to buy.
It’s no use thinking about it.
It’s okay to be a bad woman, but you can’t be heartless. She helps me with the housework and cooks noodles for me every day. Is it appropriate for me to chase her away?
I was the one who had to leave, so as soon as I got the salary, I immediately looked for a place to move.
“Mo Xiaocong, you are a scumbag.”
My best friend curled her lips and said that I was brainwashing myself to reduce my guilt.
I ignored her. This girl just wanted to steal my idol.
“If you keep nagging me, I’ll block you and end our friendship for 24 hours.”
I made so many threats that my best friend backed down and asked me again if I was really planning to dump my ghost husband. She said she was considering taking over and it would be so nice to have a ghost who could do housework and cook noodles.
I hung up immediately. Maybe I really am a scumbag.
At this time, I actually want to have both, a male god outside and a ghost husband at home, so beautiful that she can float to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun.
13
There is one thing I am very sure of, my idol likes me, otherwise he wouldn’t pretend to meet me by chance every time and wait for me to get off work.
He also said he happened to pass by.
How could it be such a coincidence? No matter whether I walked out of the company at 10 or 12 o’clock, I could always hear the clear and crisp voice calling out: “Mo Xiaocong.”
He walked over from under the streetlight.
The light shone on him, so dim that it made people feel unreal.
For a whole week, my boyfriend would always walk me to the door, say good night and leave.
A reserved gentleman.
It makes people’s hearts itch.
My best friend asks me every day who to choose between a ghost husband and a male god.
And she can do either one, whether it’s a ghost husband or a male god.
She was willing to take over, so I made a choice early and didn’t waste her youth.
After thinking about it, I feel that my best friend is right. I can’t be so bad as to eat noodles cooked by a ghost and flirt with my boyfriend outside.
So I’m looking for a house.
My best friend was so excited and said she had already submitted her resume to my company.
She asked me to sublet the house to her, and was afraid that I would change my mind, so she directly transferred a deposit of 1,000 yuan to me.
this……
I didn’t dare to accept it.
You’d better ask the ghost about this kind of thing. What if he doesn’t agree?
My best friend said it was okay, because she would move in by then and they would definitely fall in love over time.
She also sent a seductive photo and said that she would wear this at home every day and she didn’t believe her husband could hold on.
I was eating noodles and I almost burst out laughing. This guy is really in love and he dares to do anything.
“Are you planning on moving?”
On the way home, my idol suddenly asked me, his clear eyes hiding fragments of light under the moonlight.
“Um.”
I just nodded, and he said, “I happen to have an empty room, why don’t you move in?”
“ah?”
I was dumbfounded.
What is this? Is it so exciting to directly invite someone to live together?
14
“I don’t want to, but I don’t…”
Before the male myth was finished, my brain short-circuited: “I do!”
After he said this, his heart began to tremble wildly, pounding so hard that it almost jumped out of his throat.
“Call me when you’re done.”
The male god curled up the corners of his lips. He looked so handsome when he smiled. I was stunned.
We didn’t speak again along the way.
Or did I say that?
It’s the kind where you can’t tell whether you are in a dream or not, your heart is racing and your brain is trembling.
“I’m going to live with my god.”
“Living together? Mo Xiaocong, you’re actually going to live together with my idol?”
My bestie is screaming.
The most terrible thing is a jealous woman.
She was completely unrecognizable at this moment: “Mo Xiaocong, I hate you.”
Take another look!
She blocked me.
It’s a good thing we’re thousands of miles apart, otherwise I would have been strangled to death.
But I don’t care. For my idol, I’m not afraid of being abandoned by my friends.
I didn’t sleep that night, not only because I was packing my luggage, but also because I was so excited that I couldn’t sleep.
She has been single for twenty-three years.
It was the first time in my life that I lived with a man, and with my idol. I couldn’t even sleep. I tossed and turned in bed, with my idol’s words all over my mind: “Why don’t you move in, move in, come over…”
In a daze.
I saw my idol. He was looking at me and smiling so beautifully.
I walked towards him.
He looked at me and whispered softly and affectionately: “Mo Xiaocong, do you really not remember me at all?”
Um?
I was stunned for a moment, opened my eyes in panic, and saw the ceiling.
The male god is gone.
But the gentle eyes and the whispered words still linger in my ears.
A male god.
A senior who is one year older than me.
How could I not remember it? This dream was really weird.
15
Just after arriving at the company, my best friend who I had broken up with overnight called me and solemnly warned me that from today on, the ghost husband was hers, and asked me to be more restrained and not to flirt with her male ghost anymore, and to get out of here immediately.
“I’ve packed my bags, and I’m leaving tonight.”
To reassure her, I even sent her photos of my packed luggage.
In fact, I only had one suitcase. After all, I was only staying there for a few days, so the suitcase was not even full when I arrived.
My best friend expressed her satisfaction.
She has already submitted her resignation and is waiting to complete the procedures before meeting her ghost husband.
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“I’m a ghost, I didn’t even show my face.”
I suspect that my best friend has a short circuit in her brain.
Others would try to avoid it, but she would go out of her way to invite evil spirits and happily pay for it.
“So what if it’s a ghost?”
“Mo Xiaocong, are you a speciesist?”
“I’m telling you, even though we are human now, we could turn into ghosts in a minute. Do you think you’ll feel good when you’re discriminated against?”
My best friend hung up immediately.
She’s still angry. What a joke! I’m clearly worried about her and doing this for her own good.
All right……
I will never admit that I feel a little jealous. After all, I have been eating their noodles for so many days, so I should give them some explanation when I leave.
So I took the afternoon off.
The manager had a gloomy look on his face and said that young girls nowadays are really ignorant. They dared to ask for leave after only being there for a few days.
I ignored him and worked 996 every day, and often worked overtime until midnight.
Who is ignorant?
If I had been broke, I would have quit long ago.
Leave the company.
I followed the navigation to find a worship shop. Following the owner’s recommendation, I bought a lot of paper money and a suit that was said to be the most popular in the ghost world. I planned to go back and burn them to the ghost husband to express my gratitude.
After all, he spent so much time cleaning the house and cooked so many bowls of noodles.
When leaving.
The store manager said meaningfully: “Little girl, you have good luck in love.”
I smiled back at him.
Of course, everyone loves me, flowers bloom when I see them, and even male gods feel excited when they see me!
16
“Master Ghost, thank you very much for taking care of me during this period.”
“You’re actually very good.”
“Really? She can do housework and cook such delicious noodles.”
“My best friend likes you so much that she is willing to pay money to be with you, so don’t be sad or reluctant after I leave. My best friend will be here to accompany you soon.”
Forehead……
There’s something wrong with that.
I braked in time and burned the suit to him: “Although we met by chance, your care during this period makes me feel very warm, and I think it is your appearance that makes me lucky, I can even meet my idol, and I can still believe in love.”
etc……
This statement seems a bit wrong.
It’s clearly a farewell, why does it seem like you’re showing off?
“Anyway, thank you very much for taking care of me during this time. I really want to thank you very much. I will always remember it in my heart.”
I clasped my hands together and bowed to all around me with great piety.
I used to be an atheist, but now I think this world is so wonderful and there are such gentle ghosts.
Although I have never met him, I believe that he must be a very gentle and handsome guy as my best friend said.
Anyway, in the end, he didn’t say goodbye to me. When he left, I closed the door gently. I felt a little depressed, that kind of… sour and reluctant feeling.
Is this what it feels like to be heartbroken?
I even had the urge to not leave and just stay here.
Forget it.
I have to go, I have to leave here and rush into the arms of my god.
It’s a male god!
Give me the courage to leave here.
Pulling my suitcase downstairs, I sent a message to my boyfriend.
He was at work and sent me an address and asked me to go there by myself. The password was my birthday.
Just say he likes me.
He even knows my birthday, so maybe he had a crush on me when we were in college.
17
My idol lives in a small apartment, which is not in the same district as me and is not of the same level.
I have 500 yuan a month.
His house is 58 square meters, and even if it is a single room, the starting price is twelve thousand yuan.
What’s more, there are three rooms, they are spotlessly clean and everything is neatly arranged.
There is a faint scent of tea in the air.
There is no need to guess, it must have been cleaned up specially to welcome me.
“Which room do I stay in?”
“It’s all right. Pick one for yourself.”
My idol replied immediately, and I felt like he was holding his phone, waiting to reply to my message.
This damn feeling of being in love.
Anyway, I opened the door of each room and took the opportunity to visit my idol’s room.
The master bedroom is quite large, with floor-to-ceiling windows, flowing screens and tassels swaying gently in the wind.
The room of this male god is decorated very nicely, with sky blue tones. It looks refreshing and as clean as he is.
certainly……
I am not such a shameless person, so I definitely cannot choose the master bedroom, so I chose the second bedroom next to it.
The other room is a study.
I took a look and saw a photo of a building on the desk.
It looks a little familiar, as if I’ve seen it somewhere, but I can’t remember where it is.
I was planning to clean it up.
At once……
Pretend to be a good wife and mother.
When you find that you have no idea where to start, just roll up your sleeves and make a delicious meal.
Three dishes and one soup.
Just as my signature sweet and sour pork ribs were served, there was a ding from the door.
The male god is back.
I was about to go over to him when my best friend called me, “Mo Xiaocong, where are you? The man you were going to live with is dead.”

“What did you say?”
My smile froze instantly, and my idol walked in at this moment.
Eyes met.
My eyes fell on the big bouquet of roses in my idol’s arms.
Best friend: “Do you remember the accident outside the school gate on the day we took our graduation photos? The dead person was my idol.”
Holding roses, she was run over by a drunk truck driver.
The flowers were still scattered all over the ground, and we were all discussing who would be the girl who received the flowers.
“For you.”
The male god walked over, with a gentle smile on his lips.
I hung up the phone, took the flowers and took a deep breath. They smelled really good, just the scent I liked.
“You did all this?”
The male god’s eyes fell on the table. I said, “Yes, yes, I don’t know if it suits your taste, but I like it very much.”
I hurriedly put down the flowers and went over. My best friend called again. It was obvious that she was jealous of me.
so……
While my idol was turning around to get the bowl, I blocked her and sent her a reply on WeChat: “If you keep complaining, I’ll end our friendship.”
The first meal of living together.
I cooked it.
The male god ate with gusto.
I was secretly glancing at him. Aren’t ghosts allowed to eat?
He is quite a big eater. He kept eating piece after piece of my favorite ribs.
Don’t ghosts have chins?
He has a chin, and the whole person looks quite real, not a ghost at all.
“how?”
“Is there dirt on my face?”
He looked at me, with a smile on his lips and a gleam in his eyes that was simply deadly.
I quickly looked away, my face suddenly feeling hot.
It’s planted.
Even if it’s a ghost, I’ll accept it.
What happened to the ghost?
Ghosts are also transformed from humans, so how can we discriminate against each other?
“Mo Xiaocong, you have changed. You have become more interested in the opposite sex than in humanity.”
My best friend was heartbroken.
I sneered: “If it were you, you would become even more cruel than me.”
19
“That’s right.”
“So what do you say?”
“They’re both ghosts, would you choose a ghost husband or a male god?”
My best friend suddenly screamed, “Mo Xiaocong, could the ghost husband be my idol?”
“Yes, it’s possible.”
I rubbed my ears and looked around the room. I noticed it when I came. It was the familiar cleanliness. The guy must have obsessive-compulsive disorder. Everything was neatly arranged.
“I don’t believe it. Go ask.”
My best friend’s face was full of resentment, and the mung bean paste mask was hard to describe.
I hung up directly.
How to ask?
I want to ask if my idol is a ghost, or if he is a ghost living secretly with me?
I was afraid he would just kick me out.
After a few days of getting along.
The male god is really a very gentle person.
He rarely spoke, but he would put away neatly all the things I had thrown around. When I got off work, he would wait outside the company door and then send me home. Just as I reached the bedroom door, he would smile slightly, say good night to me gently, and then go back to his room.
“The man of my dreams, he is good at managing the household and not a nagging person. I take care of the outside affairs while he takes care of the inside affairs. The wife follows the husband and he follows the wife. He doesn’t have to be too perfect.”
“Mo Xiaocong, what are you waiting for?”
“You have the looks, and you have the inner qualities, why don’t you hurry up?”
My bestie gnashed her teeth and wished she could wear it on me so she could seduce my boyfriend for me.
“He doesn’t confess.”
“Do you think I, a beautiful girl, can tell him that I want to sleep with him?”
My best friend rolled her eyes and said, “You bitch are just being pretentious. I’ll block you without any explanation.”
When I hung up, I just walked out of the company and saw my idol standing under the light from afar.
He likes to stand in the light and wait for me.
Every time I looked over there, he always caught my gaze at first sight, with a gentle smile on his lips when he looked over at me.
“Mo Xiaocong.”
Every time I saw him, he would shout and then walk towards me step by step out of the light.
Like…
The gods came down to earth.
But he is a ghost, and no one knows when he will disappear.

I used to be heartless, but suddenly I felt melancholy, afraid that I would not be able to see my idol under that light.
“What are you thinking about?”
The male god raised his head and patted my forehead. His hands seemed to have no temperature, but very cold, but definitely not as cold as ice.
I looked up at him, my mind was blank: “Why don’t you confess to me?”
The male god blinked, and I saw his ears turned red, and we just stared at each other.
“Hey Mo Xiaocong, you just got off work? Do you want me to take you there?”
A colleague passed by on an electric scooter.
I shook my head: “No, my boyfriend is here to pick me up.”
“Tsk, I always see you alone, when did you get a boyfriend?”
He is blind and can’t see such a handsome man.
I turned my head to look at my idol, he was looking at me and smiling with a slight smile on his lips.
Charmingly handsome, like a character from a comic book.
“Hey, Mo Xiaocong, why are you being so crazy about the air?”
My colleague patted the back seat of the car and asked me again, “Are you sure you don’t want me to take you there?”
“No, thank you.”
I smiled at him and said thank you, but with gritted teeth.
He left, muttering as he left: “This nice little girl might have a problem with her brain.”
On the way home.
The male god didn’t say a word.
I stole a glance at him, the gentle smile on his lips disappeared, and he looked a little serious.
It must be because of what my colleague said.
He didn’t say anything, and I didn’t know what to say, so I could only follow him with my head down.
Suddenly.
Bumped into an embrace.
Raise your eyes.
Facing the male god’s clear eyes filled with fragmented light.

“Don’t you have any questions for me?”
He was staring at me, as if examining and measuring something.
I scratched my head, hesitated, and said cautiously: “Can you snap your fingers and create endless money?”
I even snapped my fingers and showed him the sound.
His face darkened, and he raised his hand and patted my forehead: “What are you thinking about?”
“Is it not possible?”
I rubbed my forehead. The ghost husbands in novels all have this ability.
He said, “No.”
“All right.”
“It’s okay if I can’t.”
I touched my nose and said cautiously: “I can support you.”
It’s just raising a ghost. Others raise little ghosts, but I raise a handsome ghost. It’s not a loss no matter how you look at it. How great is a male god? Not only is he handsome, but he can also manage the household and cook noodles. My best friend wants him but he has none. I have no reason to push him away. Besides, everyone will become a ghost in a few decades. By then, he and I will both be ghosts, which will be a perfect match. Moreover, he is an old ghost and can protect me, a new ghost.
“Mo Xiaocong, aren’t you afraid?”
“Why should I be afraid?”
I scratched my head, not understanding. He is so handsome, so he must be afraid of me. Fortunately, the person he met was a girl, so she was reserved. If it was my best friend, I would have eaten him up in one bite.
“I am a ghost.”
There is helplessness in the male god’s tone. Why is he helpless?
“Yeah.”
“So, are you willing to let me raise you?”
I was serious, even though I didn’t prepare flowers or a ring.
“Mo Xiaocong!”
“Be serious!”
He spoke in a hoarse voice and his eyes were red.
He must have been moved by me. A beautiful girl like me took the initiative to say that I wanted to support him. Anyone would be moved to tears.
I even took the initiative to hook the male god’s bony fingers: “I am serious, you will be my ghost from now on.”
We have come this far, and we cannot miss a single step.
I stood on tiptoes and closed my eyes as I bumped into the man’s lips.
The reason is collision.
Because I didn’t stand firmly, I fell directly to him and was hugged by him. I suppressed my emotions and gritted my teeth: “Mo Xiaocong, you will regret it.”

“Then I’d like to do that, too.”
I kissed her and it was icy cool, just like ice cream, if only with a little vanilla flavor.
Hmm…
He suddenly lowered his head…
I had no idea how it ended and how I got home.
I just remember that we held hands tightly.
They hesitated at the door for more than ten minutes before returning to their respective rooms.
“What?”
“You two kissed?”
“Oh my god, what does it feel like?”
My best friend, who has been single for more than 20 years, asked me if my saliva is sweet. In novels, the adjectives used to describe kissing are all like honey, which is so sweet that it is addictive.
I said seriously, “It’s like eating ice cream, with a light tea flavor. Hmm, it would be nice if it had a vanilla flavor.”
“whispering sound!”
My best friend curled her lips and asked, “How did your idol confess his love to you?”
“It wasn’t him, I confessed.”
I recounted the whole process and couldn’t help but complain: “It was clearly him who took the initiative to seduce me, and he still cared if I regretted it after all that happened. At that time, I just wanted to pounce on him and finish him off first.”
“Ah…”
“I’m so jealous…”
My bestie’s eyes were full of pink bubbles, and I said seriously: “You should find someone to fall in love with. The feeling of falling in love is really good. It’s like your heart is filled up. No matter what you see, you will feel so happy. You can even float up to the sky and stand shoulder to shoulder with the sun.”
“Do you believe I will block you?”
“Do I not want to fall in love?”
“I’ve already handed in my resignation letter!”
“You should ask him whether that ghost husband is your idol or not. If he is, you have to return the thousand dollars to me.”
“I didn’t take your money.”
Under the coercion of my best friend, I still gritted my teeth and knocked on my male god’s door.
“What’s up?”
He opened the door and looked at me, with a smile on his lips and his eyes full of light.
How could there be such a gentle ghost?
Once you set your sights on him, you’ve already fallen for him and there’s no way you can take your sights back.
I want to sleep with you.
etc……
This is just a thought, just a thought.
What I want to ask is: “Were you the ghost who cooked noodles for me in the rental house before?”
“Um.”
The male god nodded.
Me: “So since when did you start to like me?”
What a damn curiosity. Anyway, I asked, “You came back to school with flowers that day. Could it be that you wanted to confess to me?”
twenty three
“Mo Xiaocong, you really forgot about me.”
My idol pulled me into the study and handed me a thick photo album.
Is there an old photo in it? It’s a group photo of the children in the orphanage. There’s me and my idol. He’s standing next to me and we’re holding hands.
“You said you would marry me, remember?”
He asked me.
I:”……”
At a time like this, how could I say that I didn’t remember such a depressing thing? I could only nod guiltily.
“Your eyes always wander when you lie. If you don’t remember, just say you don’t remember.”
He pulled me to sit down and told me that when he was in the orphanage, he was always bullied because of his small stature. I often helped him, and every time we played house, I would always ask him to play with us and be his bride.
Then I was adopted.
He grew up in an orphanage and has been looking for me ever since.
That morning, he received a call from a private detective saying that he had finally found me.
He got the photo.
I also saw that photo, of me sitting on the court with a bright smile on my face.
He bought flowers and came to see me.
Unexpectedly, he was run over by a drunk truck driver.
In his pupils, there was only endless darkness.
But strangely, he came back and appeared beside me on the seventh day.
It’s like…
I was a magnet, and he was drawn closer by some mysterious force.
And as time goes by, the energy in his body will become stronger and stronger, and he can even touch things.
so……
When I was living in a rental house, he helped me clean the house and so on.
Originally, on the day I held the umbrella, he wanted to tell me that he was the ghost.
But I was so scared that I called my best friend, so he left.
These days.
He kept wanting to tell me the whole story.
But I’m afraid…
I’ve been procrastinating until now.
He asked me, “Mo Xiaocong, you have a choice. You can regret it.”
I only have one last question, which is, is the ghost husband really that fierce, doing it once a night, all night long?
All right……
The male god decided to tell me the final answer to this question through his actions.
As for him being a ghost…
Hmm…
There are thousands of people who raise ghosts in the world, so one more like me wouldn’t make a difference.
My best friend is very envious of me and insisted that I introduce her to a ghost husband who is as handsome as a male god.
Feel sorry.
My ghost husband is one-of-a-kind. There is no other ghost who is more handsome than him and who is better at housekeeping and cooking than him.
Finally, finally…
What kind of mysterious power makes the male god appear by my side?
Probably obsession.
His determination to find me has become such that even death cannot stop him.
I hope this persistence…
It can bind us together in the next life and let us meet again in the next reincarnation.
