Chapter 701 - 701 The Deal with the Female Ghost
701 The Deal with the Female Ghost
Jiang Ming felt the female ghost’s immediate rejection.
“It’s impossible in this lifetime!”
“Get lost!”
Suddenly, he heard an ear-piercing shout.
When he looked up again, Jiang Ming saw a man kneeling in front of him with a burning gaze.
The man had blonde hair and blue eyes. He looked like he was of mixed origins. He was wearing a suit.
When their eyes met, Jiang Ming felt the confusion of the person possessing him.
Was this person mentally ill?
“Didn’t I tell you to get lost?”
The prince in front of her quickly stood up and glared at the female ghost.
What a reckless woman!
Jiang Ming could not control his expression. He was so angry that he laughed and rolled his eyes. “Who are you to me? Why should I listen to you?”
“Don’t tell anyone else about this! Take the silver and scram!”
The prince could not be bothered to talk nonsense with the female ghost. He took out a stack of silver banknotes from his pocket and threw it in front of the female ghost. His tone was cold.
The notes were scattered all over the ground. Jiang Ming was enraged.
Wasn’t this an insult?
Then, some memories came to his mind. It showed that the prince was the playmate of the princess who grew up together.
After that, for some reason, the prince lost his memory, and she had never interacted with him again.
The prince smiled and sized up the female ghost.
She was dressed quite expensively.
To be able to afford these luxurious clothes meant that she probably had to sell her body to many people.
Despite that, she considered what he did an insult?
He looked at the female ghost in disdain. “This silver…”
Before he could finish his sentence, the prince felt a sharp pain in his lower body. Then, he saw the female ghost’s leg quickly withdraw from his weak lower half. There was an obvious shoe print on his crotch.
“Damn it!”
The prince gritted his teeth. He wished he could kill the smug woman in front of him.
“Wow, you’re so patient.” Jiang Ming clicked his tongue and waved. “Goodbye!””
Then, she left.
That was all.
The prince’s face instantly darkened.
She had successfully attracted his attention. He hoped she would not see him again.
Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry.
These two looked like a couple.
Then, he felt the female ghost walk into the street. She took a deep breath, turned into the alley, and knocked on the door.
Memories flashed again, and Jiang Ming immediately understood what she was doing.
This was the courtyard left behind by the female ghost’s mother.
Ever since her mother passed away, she had never come here again.
Jiang Ming could not help but sigh.
Now, this courtyard had actually become her safe haven.
“Princess…”
The butler opened the door in surprise.
Jiang Ming was about to reply when a familiar male voice sounded in his ear. There was a hint of anger in it.
“Is that you?”
She turned around and saw a head of golden hair that almost blinded her.
Jiang Ming felt the female ghost grin. “What a coincidence.”
This world was really small.
“Prince Xia Gui, it’s great that you know each other. This is the princess,” the butler said with a smile.
The prince?
Thinking of what happened just now, Jiang Ming looked at the female ghost and burst out laughing.
“Shut up!”
Xia Gui became even angrier.
How could such a crass girl actually be his childhood sweetheart?
However, she was not too bad.
He smirked. “Shengsheng, you have to be polite to your former playmates.”
What was going on? Had the prince regained his memory?
The female ghost was very surprised.
Jiang Ming now knew the female ghost’s name.
Her name was Liang Shengsheng.
The butler explained, “Princess, the prince is the younger brother acknowledged by the madam. Logically speaking, you should call him uncle.”
“Uncle Liu, this is the medicine you mentioned.”
Xia Gui held back his laughter and politely handed the packet of medicine in his hand to the butler.
“Prince Xia Gui, thank you for your trouble. Why didn’t you ask a servant to send it over?”
The butler was confused.
“I was on the way here, so I came to check on your health. I’m relieved to see that you’re well. I still have something to do, so I’ll be leaving first.” The prince looked at the female ghost with a faint smile and sized her up. “My little niece, we’ll have a chance to see each other again.”
Little niece?
The female ghost was furious.
Who would want to see him?
“Prince, please take care.” The butler gratefully looked at the prince’s retreating figure as he left. Then, he said seriously, “Princess, please come in quickly. I have something to tell you.””
Jiang Ming thought about it and felt the bond between Xia Gui and Liang Shengsheng. He could not help but feel odd.
Why did this female ghost possess him to feel her emotions and actions?
“Alright.”
The female ghost nodded and followed the butler into the courtyard.
Seeing the familiar scene, the female ghost’s eyes filled with tears.
Her mother had died in an accident.
“Princess, the former queen expected you to come after her death and asked me to give this to you.”
The butler took out a box from behind the vase on the shelf and handed it to the female ghost.
The female ghost was stunned. Then, she opened the box. Inside the box was a simple white bracelet.
She knew about this bracelet. Her mother had always worn it when she was alive.
The bracelet had disappeared after her mother passed away. She did not expect it to be with the butler.
“The former queen wants you to wear the bracelet and go to Prince Xiang’s mansion nearby. Don’t ask any questions and don’t say no; just go,” the butler said solemnly.
The female ghost was confused. She nodded. “I understand.”
Jiang Ming was baffled.
What use could this bracelet have?
After putting on the bracelet, the female ghost walked toward Prince Xiang’s residence.
At this moment, the female ghost’s memories suddenly rushed ahead.
Jiang Ming could only vaguely capture some scenes.
The female ghost went to a market. There were vendors selling knick-knacks and other things.
The hawking sounds of the stalls were endless in her ears. The female ghost’s attention was completely on those stalls.
In the next memory, a woman was kneeling on the ground. Her hair was unkempt, and her face was dirty. She looked to be about twenty years old. There was a line of words in front of her that said, “I’m from another city. I was scammed until I was penniless. I beg a kind-hearted person to help me. Help me go home. The person who helps me will get this painting.”
There was a painting in the middle of the words, but he did not know what it was.
There was some dirt on the painting, and it looked like it was a forgery.
The crowd discussed animatedly. Their eyes were filled with disdain as they felt that the painting in front of them was fake.
Many memories flashed through his mind. In the last memory, Jiang Ming saw the scene of the female ghost and Xia Gui being tortured to death. The woman kneeling down was wearing a bracelet and having fun with King Liang.
Everything was over, but Jiang Ming felt a real pang of pain in his heart. He also felt the monstrous hatred of the female ghost.
In his heart, he heard the female ghost begging him to help her get the bracelet.
As long as she helped her get the bracelet, she could give Jiang Ming some unique spells.
Zhu Asi and the others only saw Jiang Ming’s empty eyes. He was pacing around anxiously, but there was nothing they could do.
When they saw Jiang Ming, their eyes immediately lit up, and they all flocked to him.
“Ning Caichen, are you alright? How do you feel?”
