After he woke up. He wore his clothes and sat at his desk. After turning the lamp on, he began to open up his laptop and type.

Lin Wu glanced at the window. Dawn hadn’t arrived yet, so he cast a glance at the time in the bottom right corner of the screen. It was only 5.32 a.m.! He involuntarily felt a little like crying. He had only slept for four hours and was forced to wake up to update his novel.

Damn, if he was so hardworking during the college entrance exam, he could have entered the Peking University!

Naturally, since this was something that wouldn’t happen in reality, he could brag however he liked.

“Tap, tap…tap, tap…”

In the quiet room, only the sound of a keyboard being pressed could be heard.

Time slowly flowed.

Without realizing it, dawn had arrived. Outside the bedroom, the sounds of footsteps and the clatter of pots and pans could be heard. Most probably, his mom had woken up and was preparing breakfast.

After he finished writing this chapter, the sky was already extremely bright.

“Aiya, I finally finished writing…”

Lin Wu yawned. After he uploaded the chapter, he stretched his body.

At this moment, small cherry-like lips suddenly materialized on the screen of the phone. A slightly hoarse voice also rang out, “Sir author, you have worked too hard.”

“Cough, it’s okay.”

Lin Wu forcefully stopped his mouth from complaining. He lifted his hands and twisted his shoulders to stretch them.

If it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t beat the ghost, he truly wanted to send a slap flying there. The black-hearted ghost reader actually forced him to wake up before dawn to write!

“Sir author, are your shoulders sore?” asked the ghost reader politely in concern. “You woke up so early to write, wouldn’t you feel very tired?”

“I’m pretty tired, but in order to allow you to read the new chapter, it’s fine.” Lin Wu’s smile couldn’t be any more fake.

“Oh, why don’t I help to massage you?” the ghost reader asked.

“…No need for that.” Lin Wu’s eyes twitched. (If I let you massage me, wouldn’t my shoulders crumble from the force?)

He remembered clearly that to prevent the ghost reader from coming out, he had used all his strength to press down the laptop lid, but he had no way to resist her at all.

“Alright, sir author, please work hard.”

The beautiful lips on the screen moved. “I’m going to read the novel for the 483rd time then.”

Lin Wu couldn’t help but ask, “What is your name?”

“Sir author can just call me ‘Liuli’,” she spoke softly and vanished from the screen.

“Liuli?”

Li Wu mumbled. He knew for sure that this wasn’t a real name just by hearing it. Maybe it was a web name or a nickname?

At this moment, his door creaked. Mother Lin took the spatula and walked in. When she saw him sitting before his laptop, she couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you up so early today?”

“Because…I’m hardworking.” Lin Wu rubbed his face. He was pretty thick-skinned.

Mother Lin rolled her eyes, completely not believing his words. She also didn’t want to hear his nonsense, so she directly spoke, “Quickly go wash your face and brush your teeth. After breakfast, you still have to go to school and be your father’s replacement.”

“Oh.”

Lin Wu nodded.

“Ai, I thought you would push it away. I didn’t expect that you are really willing to go. Your father was about to find other teachers to substitute for him,” Mother Lin exclaimed.

“For an author with such esteemed status like me, my words have always counted as my promise.” Lin Wu chortled.

If it wasn’t that he wanted to investigate Pei Jianing’s matter, he would have pushed the matter away and chosen to sleep at home instead.

“Your status? You only have an identity card. What are you talking about?”

Mother Lin couldn’t be bothered to hear his nonsense. She then walked out with her spatula.

After he performed his morning ablutions, he sat down in front of the dining table and looked at his father who was reading the news on his phone.

“Father, are you going to participate in the funeral service of ‘that who’?” Lin Wu took up his bag and casually asked.

“That ‘who’ is none other than your uncle Yang Ke’s family.” His father used his chopsticks to stir the gruel. His expression turned heavy, and he sighed. “I knew him since senior high. It has been so many years, and we suddenly lost contact this month. No one expected that it was because his family encountered big trouble.”

“Big trouble?” Lin Wu was puzzled.

“Sigh, forget it. Let’s just eat.” Father Lin shook his head. He then instructed, “When you go to school today, there’s no need for you to care about anything, just go on normally with the lesson. Have you read the lesson plan yet?”

“Yeah, I finished reading them,” Lin Wu spoke while silently musing that he would read them later.

“Mn, you don’t need to be too strict.” Father Lin nodded slightly. “Just supervise them as they do their revision. By logic, they are already on holiday. My students will be in their senior year after one or two months. It’s just that the school arranged some lessons for them.”

“Alright then.” Lin Wu nodded. He had been worried about what he should teach them. Supervising the students was a much easier task.

After breakfast.

“I’m heading out. Father, have a pleasant journey.”

Lin Wu called out. He then took the car key and his phone as he left the house.

When he entered the lift, just when he pressed the 1st-floor button, Lin Wu suddenly discovered a young girl of about 16-17 with baby fat on her face beside him. He couldn’t help but jump in fright.

“What? Why are you appearing so suddenly all the time?” Lin Wu cast an annoyed glance at her. “Sooner or later, I will have a heart attack from all your surprises.”

Xiao Qin casually shrugged. “I’m a ghost.”

“Why are you looking for me so early in the morning?” Lin Wu asked.

Xiao Qin lifted his wrist and looked at the red string with its true lover’s knot. She couldn’t help but click her tongue. “The matchmaker’s efficiency is pretty high. Seems like you are about to get a new wife.”

Lin Wu’s face turned black as he asked, “Do you know who it is?”

“How would I know?”

Xiao Qin rolled her eyes. “The matchmaker also wouldn’t chat with me. In any case, you would have a new ghost wife. As to whether she has reincarnated or not, no one knows about this. But it’s best for you to be more cautious.”

Lin Wu helplessly spoke, “If it is a malicious ghost with resentment towering up the skies, what should I do if she is bent on killing me every minute?”

“It won’t be that bad.” Xiao Qin shook her head. “The matchmaker depends on her red string to torment the malicious ghosts, forcing them to marry you. The time needed to exhaust their obsession and resentment depends on how powerful the malicious ghosts are. The stronger they are, the harder they would be to subdue. According to what you say, the matchmaker just reincarnated for a few days and already subdued one. Seems like that one she subdued wasn’t any overly powerful malicious ghost.”

“Oh?” 

Lin Wu was astonished.

Xiao Qin continued, “For example for you, you had many extramarital affairs back then, and the matchmaker also used her red string to torment you. But to you, the red string is completely ineffective. Hence, the matchmaker gave up. If not, why do you think you could have so many wives? The matchmaker has no solutions to deal with you at all.”

“…” Lin Wu was speechless.

“Oh ya, by the way, if a malicious ghost really comes, can Pei Jianing protect me?” Lin Wu suddenly asked.

“It shouldn’t be a problem.” Xiao Qin nodded. “Her obsession is so strong that she can even pull you into her memories. Evidently, this isn’t something an ordinary malicious ghost will be able to do.”

“Hu, that’s good then.” Lin Wu heaved a sigh of relief. “At most, I will just stay in the car.”

“But I have to remind you of one thing.” Xiao Qin looked at him and instructed. “If you are really captured by a malicious ghost, the keypoint is your will. It’s useless even if you are very strong in terms of physical strength. Can you remember this?”

“I will do my best.” Lin Wu nodded.
