Jiang Li watched with amazement as the world's consciousness did its part in ensuring Zhao Ai would run away successfully with Fan Zheng. The female lead set the fences of a nearby pen on fire which later scared the pigs. The honking noises made by the panicking pigs rang so suddenly and were so loud that the male villagers were frightened. None of them hesitated to vacate their posts. "Everyone! Subdue the fire! Quick! Take the livestock away!" Chaos ensued as shouts echoed throughout the night,…-

It was destined to be a busy day, one which would not conclude so easily. The escape was inevitable. And now, even the female lead knew about it. Thankfully, based on the latter's expression, she wouldn't stop the male lead and his friends from leaving. But if Jiang Li were to let Fan Zheng's group leave tonight and follow them into the city, would he be reconciled to let the male locals off that easily after they blatantly looked at Zhan Rong with evil desire? The subject was his future wife. The…

None of them was truly a fool, otherwise, they would not have survived until now, growing up into youths with boundless prospects as future graduates of a prestigious university. They were also not really acquainted with the villagers to have a never-wavering impression of them. Their identity was merely that of a passerby. Therefore, when Zhan Rong finally voiced out the guess all of them actually had in mind, they stopped denying the truth to themselves and became cautious of the locals around…

'Get the names of the kids in the village and pair up every beautiful fair-skinned one with a coarse-skinned one.' In this mission no one failed, not even Guo Hanying who had 'mistakenly' paired up four boys. 'Find fifteen mothers who can speak other dialects or have the accent of another province.' Fan Zheng completed it late and ended up being paralyzed for minutes. The bad thing was he ran into Zhao Ai and received harsh and unreasonable scoldings from her. The girl did not stop there. Since she was…

It had become a sleepless night for the eight people. However, when tomorrow came, none of the villagers who saw them touring around at 5:30 am realized that these foreigners had not slept a wink after being awakened by a terrible nightmare. They only thought city people were actually not as they imagined, privileged individuals who woke up late waiting for everything to be served to them. How was the feeling of being praised for changing the lazy impression of rural people on city folks like them? It…

After the minor scuffle at the temple, Fan Zheng and the rest toured the village. Jiang Li took the chance to return into the necklace when they became distracted. Although the item had no expensive gem on it and was just a simple jade, he found it a comfortable place to reside since it belonged to Margarette's reincarnation. He was especially happy. The girl had no whatsoever blood relationship with him, which meant the only headache he would have to worry about in the future was his ghost…

Once upon a time, a man nearing the age of 20, who never took part in the disgusting practices of this village, existed. He was handsome and had a very warm smile that could charm thousands of girls. With his appearance alone which was above even some of the most popular male idols, he would not have to force an outsider to wed herself to him. Many would have volunteered to send themselves to him, ignoring the fact that he was from a remote place... if he had managed to show himself to the…

Zhao Guo furrowed his brow and then asked again, "Young man, are you perhaps referring to actual... ghosts? Those... terrible, evil beings that can possess people, or do supernatural things?" "Yes, Sir," Fan Zheng nodded stiffly and replied in a low voice. "I know it's hard to believe and you might think I've gone crazy. But I swear that I'm telling the truth. Me and my friends… We have all only intended to do some hiking for our semester break. This mountain happens to be our pick. All of us are very…

As said by Fan Zheng, upon meeting somebody who could see or hear them, a ghost would usually do everything it could to bother that person in hopes that they would help them fulfill their last wishes, be it burying their remains properly or solving their resentment. Honestly, ghosts were more inclined to the latter as they normally only turned into lingering spirits after feeling like they got deprived of justice. It was rare to see one wanting to linger around the place of their death to help others,…

Days passed. Finally, the group of students was a couple of miles away from the village. All of them looked weary since, on the previous night, ghosts kept terrorizing them even in their sleep. Having not enough rest, it was no wonder when they had ushered the next day, they were without much energy, looking like walking corpses with hunch backs, slightly reddish eyes, and bleak expressions. After hours of trekking through the jungle, they could barely lift their legs. "This is supposed to be a fun group…
