He leaned on the door frame and exhaled, "You scared me to death."

"I'm not a female ghost. What's so scary?" she scoffed sarcastically, "Are you afraid someone will come up looking for you?"

"I thought you..." Ning Shouzheng ignored the sarcasm in her words, reached out to grab her shoulder, and his voice softened after the false alarm, "Thank goodness..."

"Thought I what?" Wen Yi sneered, "Thought I was also at my wit's end?"

Ning Shouzheng indeed thought so, severely frightened. He knew he couldn't hide anything from Wen Yi, "Wen Yi, I just..."

"If I died, wouldn't you be free to do as you please? Do whatever you want without any scruples..." Wen Yi said coldly.

Ning Shouzheng's face twitched involuntarily, "Wen Yi..."

Wen Yi just looked at him indifferently, silent for a long time.

"Do you hate me?" Ning Shouzheng gazed at her.
