Chapter 170: Ghost Assistant (II)

TL: Resonance

   

Shao Feidu has no wish to become friends with a ghost at all. He only wished that he would quickly leave. He looked safe and harmless now, but who knew when he would get mad and start throwing his head at him.

“Are you very scared of ghosts?” Shang Ke pretended to sit on the chair and said to Shao Feidu, “If you were born being able to see ghosts, then you should be used to it by now.”

Shao Feidu sat dumbly in front of the dining table and watched silently as the auntie who delivered dinner placed the dishes on the table for him.

The auntie was a middle-aged woman around 50 years old and was also expressionless like Shao Feidu. After placing the dishes, she turned around and went to the living room to watch the TV. Her leisure manner made her seem like she was in her own house.

Shang Ke looked at her in uncertainty, but immediately turned his attention back to the table. There were three dishes, soup and dessert placed on the table. The appearance looked good, but the food wasn’t hot anymore. Shang Ke floated towards the box used by the auntie to deliver the food. It was a hardcover thermal insulation box which could freely adjust the temperature and even has heating function. However, the thermal insulation function of this box was obviously not activated.

Shang Ke has checked the information before. Shao Feidu is the eldest young master of the Shao family which is one of the four richest families in the north capital. There were rumours that he had given up his family inheritance rights for piano. But even if that was the case, he still had his family background and fame. It shouldn’t be to the point that an assistant and even the food delivering auntie could neglect him like this?

To add on, his man would never endure humiliation by others no matter how bad the situation he was in. However, what was happening now was Shao Feidu quietly eating his cold food. There was not a single criticism.

Based on Shao Feidu’s previous behaviour, Shang Ke guessed that he might be suffering from some sort of mental illness. However, there was no information regarding this on the internet. Is he being bullied because of this?

Shang Ke looked at him sympathetically. He was once such an arrogant man, now he was at the mercy of others like a soft persimmon.

As he thought, his ghost hand stretched over unconsciously and touched Shao Feidu’s head.

Shao Feidu froze once again. His mouth which was holding food didn’t move.

Shang Ke withdrew his hand and assured, “Don’t worry Dudu, I will protect you from now on and will not let you suffer.”

Dudu… Shao Feidu’s lips moved and he slowly swallowed the food.

After eating, the auntie tidied up the table and left with the thermal insulation box.

“Is she not going to do laundry for you?” Shang Ke followed Shao Feidu to the bathroom and asked when he saw the pile of clothes in the storage basket.

Shao Feidu carried the bathrobe and stood silently in the bathroom while glancing at the ghost which was haunting him with the corner of his eyes.

“You bathe, I will wait for you outside.” Shang Ke floated out considerately and the bathroom door closed automatically.

Shang Ke took the chance to familiarise himself with the surroundings while Shao Feidu was bathing. The villa Shao Feidu was staying in was quite far from the city center. The environment was indeed quiet, but it was too quiet. There were not many people, but there were plenty of ghosts.
