" Two hundred yuan only?" Fu Yu Shen almost shrieked out as he looked at Song Yan like she has gone crazy. " If I go and fake bump into a bicycle, its owner will give me at least five hundred yuan."

" Then go ahead and keep bumping into a bicycle owner and hope that he will pay you for a month every day," said Song Yan with a casual shrug.

" No, wait …I will...I will do it," it was one of the most humiliating things for the third master of the Fu family to do something as meagre as a job that would only get him a total of two hundred yuan but he was currently penniless and there was nothing he could do except taking on the offer that was being given to him. " What do you want me to do? I will do it, just don\'t leave me here."

He might not be as brainy as his second brother but he could see that as long as he stayed near Song Yan, he didn\'t even have to touch her, the ghost wouldn\'t come out just with him being in her presence that was something really amazing! This was exactly what he wanted and there was no way he was going to let go of his chance just like that!

" Very well then you will have to listen to my conditions," said Song Yan raising her hand as she stretched out one long finger. " First, you cannot disrespect me, my family and Chen Chen, second, you need to take care of that careless attitude of yours, if you are going to work then make sure that you work for me nicely. If you don\'t then I will take away one of your meals of the day and if your attitude didn\'t improve then the situation will only get worse for you, and lastly, you will have to treat Chen Chen as if he is your ancestor with utter respect and complete devotion…" she paused and then quickly added. " Oh yes, don\'t forget to apologise to him, got it? That\'s the first thing you have to do upon meeting him."

" Ancestor…Ancestor? Apologise?" Fu Yu Shen has never heard such words, in fact, these words were often used for him. This was his first time hearing these words to be used for someone else.

" That\'s right, if you can do it, you can follow me." Song Yan adjusted her hat that was sitting on top of her head and tilted it nicely. " If you can\'t do it then there is no need for you to follow me, just remember that only by working hard will you be able to get to live in my house and nothing else is going to help. If you agree to my terms then you can follow me if not then you can walk away now and I will not say anything."

She turned to leave and sure enough Fu Yu Shen followed her, she knew that he will follow her.

The two of them came to the bus stop that was at a distance away from the main one and Song Yan felt annoyance flood into her nerves. The bus instead of coming to the main stop, it was standing here hidden in the dark, did they think that this spot was nicer than the one that was on Main Street or something?

" Get in," she said pointing to the open door of the bus. " I have somewhere to go first, I will take you home after I am done, until then you have to tag around with me."

After the ordeal all Fu Yu Shen wanted to do was sleep but upon seeing Song Yan\'s impatient expression, he immediately nodded and climbed up the stairs of the bus that was full to the brim.  But that wasn\'t what surprised him, it was the passengers who were sitting on the bus with a missing limb, or two ..an eye and in some rare cases, they were even missing a head!

He hugged his rucksack and looked at the crowd in alarm as they all turned to look at him simultaneously, their eyes growing darker by the minute as if he was some rare delicacy that just walked right in, he almost thought that he was going to be eaten but then Song Yan climbed the bus behind him and swept a glance at the ghosts sitting in the seat and snorted. " Make a move and I will make tonight your funeral, just know that neither of your hands is clean." She passed by Fu Yu Shen as she added, " Be grateful that I am in a hurry and can\'t take care of you all at the moment, or else I would have finished the job that the jerk couldn\'t do."

Almost immediately the ghosts lowered their heads to look down at their feet while Song Yan led Fu Yu Shen to the end of the bus and took a seat at the last.

She looked as calm as a cucumber but Fu Yu Shen who was being looked at by the ghosts felt like he was going to cry. Sitting next to Song Yan, he couldn\'t help but ask, " Where are you going in the middle of the night anyway?"

" To the grim reaper."
