Chapter 394: Chapter 394 Is it an illusion?

“How do I put this, I don’t agree with your point of view, but I don’t know how to refute it. Anyway, I feel like the guy is very honest…”

Actually, I can’t quite put my finger on why, but I get along with him really well and we hit it off.

There’s no sense of restraint when I talk to him.

And because of that, I agreed to his dinner invitation.

Evening.

Jiang Jing and I were living together at the villa on Beilu Hill.

I had gotten used to living there and didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.

But Jiang Jing, who during the day swore up and down that she wasn’t afraid, that she was a materialist and didn’t believe in ghosts and spirits,

started acting off as soon as the sun set and darkness fell.

She first expressed her puzzlement about the urn on the living room altar,

“Ayun, you really don’t have to keep this thing. It gives me the creeps.”

I comforted her,

“Actually, people are scarier than ghosts. Ghosts don’t have a physical form; they can’t hurt you.”

“Oh…”

Jiang Jing then went to the kitchen and soon came back out.

“Forget it, forget it!”

“What’s up, what did you want to do?”

“I thought about cooking something to eat, but there always seems to be something moving outside the window… It’s quite frightening!”

“Really? Let me take a look!”

The kitchen window actually faced the backyard garden, which was planted with greenery. I walked over to the window and took a look.

It turned out that the clothes from the day had been forgotten and were blown onto a sapling by the wind; and now with a slight breeze, they were gently swaying on the branches.

I brought the clothes back inside,

“It’s just a white jacket, what’s there to be scared of?”

“Uh, okay then!”

Jiang Jing helplessly spread her hands,

“Maybe I’m just too sensitive! Look at me, making a fool of myself, how embarrassing.”

“It’s okay, it’s okay, just stay in the bedroom. Just tell me what you’d like to eat, I can make it for you.”

“Ah, I won’t eat, no need to trouble you!”

“No trouble at all. I actually still have some instant noodles here, do you want some?”

“Uh, okay then!”

When Jiang Jing agreed, she seemed distracted and stopped glancing outside the window.

So, I took a pack of instant noodles and prepared them.

Actually, I don’t usually eat at home. Sometimes, I’d rather go hungry than bother cooking something.

This place is rather far from the city center and supermarkets, so I didn’t stock up on any other food except instant noodles.

Once the water came to a boil, I unpacked the instant noodles and put them in, only then remembering there might be a bottle of sauce or something in the fridge.

When I opened the fridge door, I was shocked.

What was an empty fridge, was now packed with various food items, and, moreover, these items were sorted and packed in sealed containers, each labeled with a date.

There was beef, eggs, greens, and some fresh fruits.

Huh?

Where did all this food come from?

I looked at the dates; most were recent, mostly from yesterday, and the produce all came from nearby eco-friendly, pollution-free green farms.

Very healthy ingredients.

I thought hard about it, could it have been Wenya and Su Peisheng who put them here?

Never mind that for now, I took out the eggs and beef, chopped them up and threw them into the pot to cook with the instant noodles.

Jiang Jing was supposed to be in the bedroom, but after less than three minutes, she ran to the kitchen and then just sat there scrolling on her phone, not daring to leave my side.
