"Why can't I control these hands of mine?!"
Only after hearing the Ribboned Female Ghost say that she woke up because of him
did Lin Yu realize—
His own small action
had actually woken her up.
He couldn't help but complain inwardly.
Completely helpless.
No matter how he thought about it,
Lin Yu never expected that such a tiny gesture
would lead to this outcome.
And on top of that—
She wasn't even human.
How could she possibly feel cold?
This was truly a case of overdoing it.
"Hardworking, capable, and considerate…
I'm liking you more and more."
The Ribboned Female Ghost swept her gaze around the kitchen.
After confirming that everything had been neatly cleaned up by Lin Yu,
a trace of subtle surprise appeared in her eyes.
Then her gaze returned to Lin Yu himself.
She reached out and pinched his cheek lightly,
letting out a soft sound of praise.
"Uh…"
For a moment,
Lin Yu had no idea what to say.
He could only force out an awkward smile.
"Since you're being so thoughtful,
shouldn't I give you a little reward?"
She looked at the embarrassment on his face,
amusement barely concealed in her eyes.
It sounded like she was talking to herself—
yet also like she was asking him.
Just as Lin Yu was starting to wonder
what kind of item she might reward him with—
She suddenly reached out with her other hand
and hooked it around the back of his neck,
pulling his face closer to hers.
Before he could react—
A soft sensation touched his lips.
"…Wait—why am I being force-kissed again?!"
At that very moment,
that was the only thought left in Lin Yu's mind.
"Alright.
We should go upstairs and rest now."
She released him quickly.
Then she stood up
and walked toward the kitchen exit.
"Looks like there's no escaping this…"
Lin Yu sighed helplessly.
No matter how he looked at it now,
there was no way out.
After letting out a long breath,
he followed her out of the kitchen.
Meanwhile, in the livestream—
[Hahahaha I can't take this anymore—Lin Yu is way too funny.]
[The moment she closed her eyes, his soul probably left his body.]
[Why does his expression look like a husband being told to hand over his paycheck after ten years of marriage?]
[Other people's horror games: chased by monsters.
Lin Yu's horror game: bitten by a vampire queen, teased by a cheongsam ghost, and force-kissed by a gourmet ghost.]
[@Vampire Queen I'm reporting this—Lin Yu is being unfaithful!]
[If the vampire queen really shows up, this is going to be legendary.]
"Think, Lin Yu… think…"
On the way back to the Red Moon Restaurant's front hall,
Lin Yu desperately searched for a solution.
But no matter how much he thought,
he couldn't come up with a method that would both
avoid angering the Ribboned Female Ghost
and prevent him from spending the night with her.
Ding—
The elevator doors opened.
The Ribboned Female Ghost stepped in first.
Lin Yu had no choice but to follow.
"Wait—
the Red Moon Restaurant's elevator needs an elevator card to operate.
Maybe I should—"
At that moment,
an idea suddenly flashed through Lin Yu's mind.
A smug expression surfaced on his face.
"You didn't lose the elevator card, did you?"
"No worries. I just happen to have one."
Before Lin Yu could finish explaining his "plan,"
the Ribboned Female Ghost spoke first.
She walked over to his side,
swiped the elevator card,
and then placed it directly into his hand.
"Darling,
don't lose it again."
She smiled sweetly at him.
"…Does she actually read minds?"
Lin Yu could only smile awkwardly.
No matter what he tried,
she always saw right through him.
Ding—
The elevator stopped on the third floor.
As the doors opened,
the Ribboned Female Ghost stepped out.
"Miss Su… you really don't have to do this.
I'm not going to run…"
Lin Yu's voice sounded weak behind her.
As if to prevent exactly that—
She wrapped him up with her ribbons inside the elevator
and dragged him out like a bundled log.
"I can't even take out the key like this…"
Lin Yu tried one last reminder.
"It's fine. I already have it."
She raised her hand.
The key—
the one Lin Yu had taken out earlier—
was already in her possession.
"…I should've put it straight into my inventory."
Regret immediately filled Lin Yu's heart.
They stopped in front of a room.
"This one."
She inserted the key, opened the door,
and dragged Lin Yu inside.
"Alright, I'll go take a shower."
Once inside,
she placed Lin Yu directly onto the bed.
Only then did the ribbons binding him fade away.
After teasing him lightly,
she walked into the bathroom.
"This is my chance…"
Lin Yu showed no hesitation.
He immediately prepared to get off the bed.
But before he could even stand up—
The ribbons reappeared out of thin air,
wrapping him up once more like a mummy.
"Hehehe…"
Laughter echoed from the bathroom,
as if she had anticipated everything.
"Hmmm~ hmm~"
From inside the bathroom,
she hummed leisurely.
Judging by her tone,
she was in an exceptionally good mood.
"Alright, Lin Yu.
It's time to rest."
The bathroom door opened.
The Ribboned Female Ghost walked to the bedside,
looking down at him from above.
Her eyes were filled with amusement.
She lightly licked her lips,
staring at Lin Yu with deep meaning.
Meanwhile, in the livestream—
[Wait… are we actually allowed to see what comes next?!]
[Upstairs, stop dreaming. Horror games have limits.]
[Why does the gourmet ghost feel like a total mena
ce and Lin Yu like pure prey?]
[Please stop, my stomach hurts from laughing.]
[The vampire queen watching this is probably losing her mind right now.]
