Please Respect the Occupation ‘Evil Spirit’Ch4 - I’m responsible for scaring people to support this household

Lu Yan held an ice cream in his left hand and a shopping bag in his right as he opened his house door. 1lwkTM

Ye Tong instantly flew onto his body and cried out, “they said I play League like a primary school student!”

Lu Yan took a bite of ice cream and asked with a straight face, “did you play the game after finishing all your homework?”

Story translated by Chrysanthemum Garden.

Ye Tong immediately started to beat him, “you’re also bullying me!”

Lu Yan pinched Ye Tong’s nose, “come, let husband help you oppress them.” zgUFmV

“I want to eat ice cream,” Ye Tong mumbled as he draped himself on Lu Yan.

Lu Yan took a big bite, “oh.”

Ye Tong, “you’re making me angry!”

Lu Yan lowered his head and kissed him.

Ye Tong’s face turned red as he licked his lips.

“Sweet?”

“Sweet.”

“Pervert.” M3zSTJ

Ye Tong became speechless, “I was talking about the ice cream!”

Lu Yan laughed, “what else do you want to eat? I’ll feed you.”

Ye Tong rolled his eyes, “you actually just want to kiss me.”

Lu Yan said in a righteous manner, “what’s wrong with letting your husband kiss?” 3Z7okS

Ye Tong buried his head into Lu Yan’s shirt, “ahhhh, don’t speak!”

Ye Tong let out a sigh of relief and helped Lu Yan arrange his collar like a virtuous wife, “you must be careful, not all evil spirits are as useless as me……”

Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, “as long as you know you’re useless.”

Ye Tong raised his middle finger, “screw you, don’t come back.” kK6f7q

Lu Yan patted his face, “your husband is going to work.”

“Humph.”

Lu Yan continued to tease him, “remember to prepare dinner for your husband.”

“You speak as if I can touch things.” Sso0wk

“Then stay at home obediently and play your games, practice your skills and don’t throw your teammates into a pit.”

Ye Tong: ……

Lu Yan said in a sincere and heartfelt manner, “it’s good to start slowly.”

Lu Yan continued to flip the pages of his book, with a hint of a smile on his face. RE2o7j

Suddenly, Ye Tong screamed and rushed out of the study to plunge headfirst into Lu Yan’s bed, “ahhhhhhhhh! Lu Yan, Lu Yan, Lu Yan!”

Ye Tong decided not to speak with Lu Yan anymore, “scram.”

During this period, Lu Yan suddenly became busy and went out for a few days. In addition to exorcising ghosts, he also helped others look at Fengshui, which helped to sweep away his lazy NEET manner. bwtdd5

So as soon as Lu Yan returned home, Ye Tong simply latched onto him and didn’t let go, complaining like a new wife in an empty house, “you’re always not home lately.”

“I’m busy.”

“You have a person outside.”

“I don’t.” jqNSaJ

“Then you have a ghost outside.”

Lu Yan calmly replied, “you’ve seen a few ghosts, do you think all ghosts are as good looking as you?”

Ye Tong hit him happily, “don’t change the topic!”

Lu Yan kissed him, “I’m really busy, busy making money to support this household.” GF3dJB

Ye Tong was unwilling, “but I don’t spend any money.”

“I need to save money to buy this residence.”

Lu Yan was calm, “did you see a ghost?”

“Fuck, how did you know!” Xrk1P8

Ye Tong widened his eyes, “why? Do you know how expensive this property is?”

Lu Yan said in a serious manner, “you are mine. How can I be assured if you’re in the hands of others?”

Ye Tong’s face turned red, “what does that have to do with anything?”

Lu Yan was helpless, “you’re the spirit of this old house that gained awareness after having accumulated spiritual energy for many years. You didn’t know that, did you?” 0 kqm2

Ye Tong has shocked, “…… what! No wonder I don’t remember how I died!”

Lu Yan facepalmed, “you really are silly.”

“Really?”

Ye Tong wailed, “really! A man, covered in blood! Just outside the study’s window, staring straight at me! Scared me to death!” c3MvgZ

Ye Tong hit him, “you only know how to criticise me!”

“Really silly.”

Chrysanthemum Garden.

“I’ll hit you, I’ll hit you, I’ll hit you!”

Ye Tong asked Lu Yan, “what if one day you die? I’m going to have to become a wandering spirit again.”

Lu Yan took a smoke, “I won’t reincarnate, I’ll stay here with you.”

“That’s good, that’s good. We’ll scare people together.”

Lu Yan, who always had a cold expression on his face, made a grimace, “no, I’m responsible for scaring people and supporting this household.” rPbMdt

Ye Tong was teased and smiled, “what about me?”

Lu Yan gave a gentle smile, “your responsibility is being as beautiful as a flower.”

Ye Tong’s eyes lit up, “en, we’ll always be together.”

Lu Yan, “until demolition.” hag6Id

Ye Tong gave him a hopeless look, “demolition your ass! Can’t you say until the seas run dry!”

Lu Yan pulled Ye Tong into his arms and kissed his forehead, “until the seas run dry.”

That day, the old house welcomed a new tenant. N1XRQ6

[End]


The translator has this to say:

This is the end! It’s a cute short story about a man and a ghost, living together without death doing them apart (just demolition).

Translating puns will be the death of me :)))))) O8pHMI

Translator's Note

Variation of a phrase in Chinese: 你负责貌美如花,我负责赚钱养家 – It’s my job to earn money for the house(hold), it’s your job to be as pretty as a flower. This phrase has been criticised by netizens before, since it often reduces the female side to ‘just being pretty’ and the male side to just ‘money’.
