In a moment of desperation, Mi Jing quickly pried off Shen Lingxing's arms that were holding her. Shen Lingxing noticed that Gu Can seemed to have been woken up by their noise, so he cooperated by loosening his arms. At that instant, with Shen Lingxing completely off guard, Mi Jing kicked him off the bed!
Thud!
"Auntie, Cancan is scared."
Gu Can, half-awake, heard a muffled sound and was startled. She immediately moved and snuggled into Mi Jing's arms.
"Don't be scared, don't be scared. Auntie's here." Mi Jing gently held Gu Can, softly patting her back, and comforted her tenderly, not paying any attention to Shen Lingxing who had fallen to the floor.
"Auntie, were you talking to someone just now? Was it a ghost?" Gu Can looked up, her big dark eyes groggy with sleep, her expression both adorable and innocent.
Ghost?
If there really was a ghost, could she still remain so calm?
