Those Years When We Killed the White Lotus
Chapter 2.12-1 - Timid and Fragile White Lotus

Ten years was neither a long nor a short time. If Zhang Daoling was asked what he was most impressed with during the past ten years, he would definitely answer that he, a celestial master, was in love with a ghost. Not only was he in love with a ghost, but he was in love with a male ghost.

Ten years was long enough for a person to recognize their feelings for someone. Today, Zhang Daoling had changed from a young, indifferent, and harsh-tongued young man into a mature man. He was now  calm and restrained, and released an aura capable of attracting people. Unfortunately, the only person he actually wanted to attract seemed to be immune to his charm.

_(:3」 ∠)_Feeling distressed.

When Zhang Daoling  returned home, he saw several ghosts having a party in his house and he could not help but feel even more distressed.

He regretted the fact that Lin Zisheng had come into contact with so much modern knowledge. When he first saw him, he was  ignorant and gullible, but unfortunately he did not keep that state of mind. Now, Lin Zisheng had become so clever that any attempt to fool him would be seen through in minutes!

_(:3″∠)_ So tired, it doesn’t feel like love anymore.

001: Easy to fool? Master, you think too much. Host-daren is never the stupid one.

“A Ling, you came back?” Noticing his “playmates” were being a little quiet, Lin Zisheng turned towards the door and saw Zhang Daoling slowly walk into the room.

Lin Zisheng sighed internally. It was obvious why the “players” were afraid of Zhang Daoliing, his body leaked a noticeable black qi.

“Is work not going well?”

No, it is love that is not going well.

Zhang Daoling shook his head and sat down on the sofa. The feeling of depression was like being a dog abandoned by its owner.

“No, work is fine. I’m just a little tired.” Zhang Daoling replied with an expressionless face, his eyes faint and pitiful. When his gaze fell on the group of “players” next to Lin Zisheng, however, his eyes suddenly became fierce.

Although Zhang Daoling’s eyes were concealed, his actions were still seen by Lin Zisheng. He could not help but feel his reaction was somewhat funny. Zhang Daoling had matured a lot in the past few years, but he had become more and more childish with time.

[Host, don’t act like you are not at fault. You’ve known this man’s feelings.] In the beginning, Zhang Daoling’s pursuit was hidden, but his intentions had been very clear lately. It had become difficult for Lin Zisheng to pretend to be oblivious.

Does this have anything to do with me? He hasn’t spoken to me about it.

In fact, it was true that Lin Zisheng didn’t want to bully Zhang Daoling. He just didn’t respond to those hints that were too concealed. He didn’t know what else to do. Looking at Zhang Daoling’s anxious expression, Lin Zisheng could not help but feel somewhat at fault.

[…Hehe. It makes sense, now.] Now that he was feeling a little more sympathy towards the male celestial master, the host-daren was becoming more and more immune to scheming?

“What’s wrong?” Looking at the pitiful expression, Lin Zisheng floated to his side and reached out, gently pressing on Zhang Daoling’s  temple. Due to his status as a ghost, Lin Zisheng’s body temperature had always been cold. At this time, Zhang Daoling felt so comfortable that he let out a  sigh.

Lin Zisheng’s thoughtfulness had always made him feel that he always knew what was going on in his heart. But every time he looked at his clear and ignorant eyes, Zhang Daoling felt that thinking the other person understood  his thoughts really was going overboard. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

001: Master, please don’t doubt your feelings. In fact, Host-daren knows everything.

“No, it’s nothing.” Zhang Daoling pulled down the hands that were massaging  him and gently kissed Lin Zisheng’s lips. Looking up at those clear eyes, he suddenly didn’t want to say anything.

My heart is tired. _(:3″∠)_

The ghosts who were watching this scene could not help but sigh. So, a person with such a low IQ could actually be a celestial master. The king had long known about his crush and chose to tease him every day to see when he would confess; yet, Zhang Daoling still stupidly thought his crush was a secret.

Now that Lin Zisheng had successfully advanced to the level of a ghost king using his blood inheritance, it was reasonable to assume that he would go to the ghost world to claim the kingdom. He only stayed here for Zhang Daoling.

Looking at Zhang Daoling and Lin Zisheng, the group of single ghosts could not help but feel that they have been strongly hurt.

“A Xuan, you didn’t go to work with me this time.” Previously, no matter where he went, Lin Zisheng would always follow him. This time around, not only did he not follow him, but he was hanging out with those lonely ghosts. Was Lin Zisheng tired of him?

“Your job is to catch ghosts. Need I go with you? Will you let me get caught?” Although it could be said that they were arguing Zhang Daoling did not respond at all. In his heart, he always knew the man’s answer.

He had etched what Zhang Daoling had done for him in the past decade on his heart.
