How I Survived in Transmigration with My Ghost Hubby

6. Being Teased in a Serious Way

Translator: Annsmiley

After he was carried back to the room, Ji Ran was still confused. He felt so complicated that even he himself didn’t know how to describe his feelings.

“You’re too dirty. You can’t lie on the bed. Sit here for a while. I’ll go to the kitchen to heat up some water for you, so you can take a bath and get changed.” Lu Zhen took Ji Ran to the bench in front of the table, helped him sit down, and left.

Ji Ran, who was now alone in the room, felt like swearing again.

Did Lu Zhen just say that he was dirty?! And whose fault was that?! Had it not been for the fact that Lu Zhen’s being mystifying scared the shit out of him, would he have been pounced by a cat? And the cat even kicked him in the face!

He turned his head and saw the spirit tablet on the table. An idea struck Ji Ran and he wanted to hold it in his hands and take a closer look at it, but he was a little afraid. So in the end, he just stared at the spirit tablet.

To be honest, although Ji Ran was frightened, he still hoped that all of this was just a prank Lu Zhen pulled on him, and that it was not what he thought it was. After all, the ancient Chinese characters were too abstract. Perhaps he made a mistake and the name that had been inscribed on the spirit tablet wasn’t Lu Zhen? Maybe he was wrong about it this whole time!

With that in mind, Ji Ran was not as scared as he had been. He put his hands together, bowed to the spirit tablet and said, “Whatever I do, please forgive me.” He took the spirit tablet and threw the red silk that had been tied to it away. He touched the inscription on it with his fingertips. Ji Ran was so concentrated that he looked like an old pedant. “I still don’t know what those characters are. Sigh, had I known that one day something like this would happen to me, I wouldn’t have chosen agriculture as my major. Instead, I would’ve chosen to study the ancient Chinese language. I’m a college graduate in modern times, but here in ancient times, I’m literally an illiterate. Come on, can someone tell me what those characters are?”

While Ji Ran was touching the inscription on the spirit tablet, Lu Zhen came back from the kitchen. When he saw what Ji Ran was doing, he suddenly paused and embarrassment and shyness flashed across his face.

“The water is ready. I’ll go get you some clean clothes and then I’ll carry you to the bathtub,” Lu Zhen said as he walked over to a bamboo box in the corner, opened the lid and took out a set of clothes.

The bamboo box was not small. It was brought here by Ji Ran from his uncle’s house, but there was no dowry in it. Instead, there were only old and shabby clothes, some of which were too small and tight for Ji Ran. Compared with other clothes, the set of clothes that Lu Zhen took out was barely fitted, but there were a few patches on them and they were overworn.

However, Lu Zhen did not pay too much attention to the outerwear. Instead, he picked up the underpants and looked them up and down.

Seeing what Lu Zhen was doing, Ji Ran immediately blushed, “You, you pervert! What are you doing? You look like a gentleman, but you’re gazing my underwear up and down. You, you, you’re sick!”

Lu Zhen didn’t change his facial expression. He turned his head and saw that Ji Ran was still holding the spirit tablet in his hands. “Your underpants are broken.” He unfolded the underwear and showed it to Ji Ran. “There is a hole in the butt area, but that isn’t a problem. For me, it’s more convenient this way.”

Ji Ran wanted to dig a hole into the ground and escape from the room right now. What did he mean by saying that it would be more convenient for him? How could he have such filthy and nasty thoughts?! Lu Zhen was teasing him while wearing a poker face. That was just unbelievable!

The corners of Lu Zhen’s mouth were turned slightly upwards, and he knew that he shouldn’t overdo it, so he threw the broken underwear back into the bamboo box and found one that wasn’t broken. Then he closed the lid, turned around and walked to Ji Ran. He took the spirit tablet Ji Ran was holding in his hands away, put the clothes into his arms, and was ready to carry him. Seeing that Lu Zhen was about to carry him, Ji Ran immediately stopped him.

“No, don’t do that!” Ji Ran extended one hand and put it between him and Lu Zhen’s chest, “I just injured my waist. I, I can still walk. I don’t need you to carry me!”

Lu Zhen shrugged and he didn’t insist. However, seeing how difficult it was for Ji Ran to stand up, he still reached out to help Ji Ran until they got to the bathtub..And he left the room after he helped Ji Ran take off his clothes and get into the bathtub.

Seeing that Lu Zhen left the room voluntarily, Ji Ran breathed a sigh of relief. Then he suddenly remembered something and shouted, “Hey, don’t disappear at a sudden! I need to ask you something!”

“Okay, I’ll be waiting outside,” Lu Zhen said smilingly.

His sexy voice was comparable to that of an announcer’s, and Ji Ran, who didn’t expect him to talk like that, found it quite attractive.
