In Rice's room, it could almost be described as "bare walls," with absolutely nothing inside! Nothing at all! The floor was quite clean, and the walls were spotless, but the empty house had no bed, not even a stool.
"Rice, where's your bed?" Su Anrong couldn't possibly be this cruel to her son.
Rice smiled adorably, taking my hand and walking around the room. Was this a tour of an empty house?
Just as I was about to ask what he was doing, he suddenly exclaimed excitedly, "Found it!" and picked up something from the floor—a super, super tiny bed!
That's right, it was a bed! But it was only the size of a pea!
I could hardly believe my eyes as I took the bed from his hands. "Rice, you must be joking with me."
"Mommy, Daddy said he spent all his savings to buy this house, and he doesn't have any money left to buy me a big bed, so I can only make do with this for now!"
"The key point is that this isn't even something you can make do with!"
"Of course it is! Just wait, Mommy!" After saying that, Rice turned around and vanished like a wisp of Azure Smoke.
I had never seen him disappear like that before, and I felt a bit anxious. "Rice, where did you go?"
"Right here! Mommy, I'm on the bed!" Rice's voice was faint but definitely coming from my hand.
I looked down and was immediately taken aback!
On the mini bed in my hand lay a plump grain of rice! It rolled back and forth on the bed, its tiny voice excitedly saying, "Mommy, look! This bed is so big; I can roll around on it!"
"Rice, my heart is so tired. I want to sleep." With tears in my eyes, I placed the bed in a corner of the room, turned off the light, and found a spot on the floor to lie down. "Good night."
The moon tonight is round, large, and bright, resembling a Crystal Mooncake. The moonlight spills through the window, and in this big house, I can only sleep on the floor. It feels so miserable and desolate.
As night fell, I had just fallen asleep when I suddenly sensed movement in the room—rustling sounds, as if something was crawling on the floor. I recalled what Rice had said; he mentioned that tonight was a full moon night and that his sleeping posture might be a bit scary. Could it be that he was transforming?
Rice always spoke the truth, and I hesitated to open my eyes. After all, he wouldn’t harm me. If it really was terrifying, it wouldn’t matter if I didn’t look, right?
But contrary to my wishes, I gradually realized that it wasn’t something crawling; it was something very large writhing, the sound inching closer to me.
I was still debating whether to open my eyes when suddenly there was a loud bang! In an instant, I was propelled to the door like a cannonball by a massive force!
Oh no! My chest is already small; now it feels completely flattened!
At that moment, even if I opened my eyes, all I could see was the door panel. My hands and feet were squished together by that strange giant, leaving me unable to move at all.
If it squeezed any tighter, my chest would be pushed in… sob…
Just when my mind was blank and I didn’t know what to do, the door suddenly swung open, and a large hand roughly dragged me outside.
Next came the sound of the door closing.
Then, feeling utterly squished and limp, I was embraced into a cool and comfortable hold.
“Would you rather be squished by Rice than sleep with me? Is it really that hard to accept?” A low voice carried a hint of sadness that made my startled heart soften.
Who would have thought Rice could grow as big as the house? I had expected something terrifying!
Inhaling the faint fragrance emanating from him brought me an inexplicable sense of peace, and suddenly I felt shy.
“Men and Women Should Not Engage in Physical Contact.”
“Haha!” He chuckled softly, lightly flicking my forehead. “Are you afraid that your desires are too strong to control, right?”
While there was a hint of truth to that, it wasn’t the whole reason! I was so innocent; I was also afraid he would take advantage of me!
Speaking of which, had he ever been with me? Could it be that Rice was truly my child? Was my fantasy while watching Little Clips actually real? No way, it couldn’t be that bizarre!
Even if it were a ghost, there should at least be some kind of spring dream or something. How could I just think about it and...
“Stop thinking about it!”
My thoughts were suddenly interrupted. I jolted awake to find myself already on the bed, with Su Anrong sitting beside me, looking distressed.
I felt a rush of panic and stared at him in fear.
He explained in a low voice, “If you keep thinking like that, I really will go for it.”
What the hell!!
“Pervert!!! Ugh…” I shouted, but he quickly covered my mouth.
“Don’t let your parents hear you,” he whispered urgently while pressing down on me.
I felt a large bulge pressing against me, and I was so scared that I didn’t dare to move.
“You... you... do you dare to do anything while I can’t even say anything?” I managed to speak, but still lowered my voice obediently.
He listened and let out a chuckle, "What do you think I'm going to do, Wheat? I told you, as long as you want it, I'll join you in your fantasies. You can watch more educational films; there will be plenty of variations..."
"Pervert, shut up!" I cursed him, but doubts crept into my mind. Could it really be true? Could I actually do whatever I wanted with him just by thinking about it?
So, does that mean if I wanted to hit him, I just had to think about it?
Seeing the wicked smile involuntarily spreading across my face, Su Anrong immediately sensed danger and tapped my forehead. "Don't waste your effort. Even if you want to think about it, I have to be willing to cooperate. If you want to kill me, I'm afraid it's hard for your husband to comply!"
"Hmph!" I turned over sulkily. "I'm going to sleep; we've been messing around all night!"
The spirit behind me didn’t say anything more, turned off the light, and a gentle voice floated through the air, "Just sleep well. Don't go out for the next few days."
"Who wants to listen to you?" I pouted and quickly fell asleep.
I don't know how long I slept, but I was jolted awake by a cry of "Help!"
It was Chen Siyuan's voice!
Wide awake now, I rushed out of my room and stood at Chen Siyuan's door. "Siyuan! Open the door!"
My parents and even both Lizard Spirits came running out.
"Wheat, what happened?"
"Ah!" Before I could answer, Chen Siyuan's agonized cries echoed again.
I exchanged glances with my parents. Without a second thought, Dad kicked open the door. The living room lights illuminated Chen Siyuan's room, and I saw what seemed like a faint mist slipping out through the window.
Chen Siyuan sat on the bed, drenched in sweat. Upon seeing me enter, she threw her arms around me. "Wheat!"
"It's okay, it's okay!" I held her head close. Chen Siyuan had always been a bit of a tomboy, enjoying activities like basketball. Even when she first met Rice, she didn't seem as fragile as she did now. At this moment, she truly resembled a helpless woman… no, she was a ghost now.
Right, she was a ghost. What could frighten a ghost so much?
"It must have been a nightmare about being pressed down by a ghost. Just put a pair of scissors under your pillow, and you'll be fine! No need to be scared!" Mom quickly concluded, pulling out a pair of scissors and tucking them under Chen Siyuan's pillow.
"Mom, you still have to sell vegetables tomorrow. You should go to sleep first; Siyuan has me!" I couldn't let my parents know about Chen Siyuan's true identity. I felt that things were not as simple as Mom suggested; how could a ghost be afraid of nightmares?
"Then Wheat, you stay with Xiao Chen tonight. Call us if anything happens." Mom seemed to want to say more, but Dad had already wrapped his arm around her waist and pushed her out, probably wanting to give us girls some space!
Two Lizard Spirits stood dumbfounded at the door. I shot them an annoyed glance, and they quickly got the hint, obediently sitting by Chen Siyuan's window to keep watch.
I closed the door and asked Siyuan, "Siyuan, tell me what just happened?"
At this point, Chen Siyuan had calmed down a bit. Suddenly, she laughed self-deprecatingly as if realizing something. "What is there to be afraid of? I'm already dead!"
"Don't say that; Rice said ghosts can vanish into thin air!"
My words made Chen Siyuan's pupils dilate slightly. She looked nervous and grasped my hand tightly. "Wheat, just now there were so many bugs crawling onto my bed! They covered me like ants; I could even hear them biting me!"
