His Breathtaking and Shimmering Light Chapter 158 - That’s right, I’m your debt chasing ghost.

Lu Yanchen looked at the woman before him. Dressed in a casual t-s.h.i.+rt and jean shorts, her fair long legs brought with them a lazy look that hid a trace of seductiveness.

“Where are your eyes grown? Can’t you look where you’re walking?” Without any expression, he came off extremely grave and stern.

“Haven’t I already apologized?” s.h.i.+ Guang muttered.

“And merely saying sorry is enough?”

Lu Yanchen’s long, st.u.r.dy legs took a step forward, and s.h.i.+ Guang immediately leaped back a huge step instinctively. “What else then? Didn’t I just b.u.mp into you once? You’re not made of tofu, it’s not as though you would crumble with a b.u.mp.”

Each time she b.u.mped into this man, there would be a sense of defeat–he was practically a jinx in her life. She could only blame herself for mixing with him back in her youth.

Indeed, there was no doubt that there were things like karma and retribution.

After thinking about it for a moment, Lu Yanchen pointed at a beef noodle store opposite the road. s.h.i.+ Guang blinked, looking at him in confusion. A little impatient, he tugged at her hand and got ready to cross the road.

When the man’s hand cupped her frail, little boneless palm, it was filled with warmth and st.u.r.diness. s.h.i.+ Guang froze up for a moment before realizing that she was being taken advantage of by someone once again.

“Smelly hoodlum! Loosen up!” She tried struggling but could not break loose.

“If I’m a smelly hoodlum, I wouldn’t be dragging you to the beef noodle store opposite, and would be dragging you right into the woods,” There was a slight yet unnoticeable trace of mockery in Lu Yanchen’s tone.

“To the woods?” s.h.i.+ Guang did not get it.

Lu Yanchen looked at her before curling his lips flirtatiously. “For a hoodlum to drag a woman into the woods, what do you think he’d do to her?”

‘To take liberties of course!’

Finally, s.h.i.+ Guang understood as her face blushed in shades of red and white.

Entering the shop, Lu Yanchen let go of his hand and told the boss indifferently, “Two bowls of beef noodles.”

The boss acknowledged with an ‘Ok’ before continuing, “Total of thirty yuan.”

s.h.i.+ Guang’s head had been turned the entire time in a huff. Even when she heard of the bill, it was as though she heard nothing. She was thinking that Lu Yanchen was merely dragging her along to eat with him. However, he nudged her with his elbow, causing her to turn around. “What?”

He raised his brow at all. “Didn’t you say you want to apologize?”

“… What?”

He looked at her. “Pay.”

‘What! I am to pay! He is even making me pay a mere 30 yuan…!’

s.h.i.+ Guang bit down on her lip and took the money out of her purse to hand it to the boss. Then, she turned to Lu Yanchen and said in a huff, “Will that do, you debt chasing ghost?” [1. The Chinese believe that one of the reasons why a ghost haunts someone, it can be due to the fact that the person owes the deceased a debt.]

Not only did she have to eat with him, but she also had to pay.

Lu Yanchen sat down at the side of a table inside the shop. “That’s right, I’m your debt chasing ghost.”

She sat down opposite him. “What must I do before I can clear all the debts?”

“You’ll never clear it in this lifetime.” ‘You owe me this …’

s.h.i.+ Guang did not even know to cry or to laugh. She glared at Lu Yanchen with a death stare, and he did the same to her, looking cold as an ice cube, stoic and serious. Suddenly, she felt as though her heart had skipped a beat in its thumping rhythm.

Right at that moment, the boss served two bowls of piping hot beef noodles.

Initially, s.h.i.+ Guang had not wanted to eat it. But, the aroma of the noodles was simply too fragrant. With the thought of her not eating even after paying for it herself, that was an even greater loss.

Therefore, she took up her chopsticks and ate it with big chomps.

‘Delicious! Simply delicious!’

‘It would be even better with some added spiciness!’

There were chili flakes on the table where one could add based on their preferences, so s.h.i.+ Guang added a little to her bowl.

Looking at her throw in spoonful after spoonful and looking as though she was ready to continue, Lu Yanchen reached out and took away the chili flakes.

s.h.i.+ Guang glared at him. “What are you doing?”

“That’s enough!”

‘Why doesn’t she think about how heaty [2. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, the human body can get overly heaty or cooling. Eating spicy stuff causes heatiness as does dehydration. There are heaty and cooling properties to food and drinks as well.] it is to eat that much chili?’

With that said, Lu Yanchen placed the chili flakes on another table.

*I used to find it a little annoying for Lu Yanchen to keep bullying her. But it’s starting to grow on me hahaha. Is this a sign of addiction D: *
