The lights in Renee''s room were not lit. To her, it didn''t matter-it was always dark and stressful.
Jovan sighed softly and gently turned on the lights.

Renee was not asleep. When she heard someone switch on the lights and approach, she could tell by
the heavy footsteps that it was Jovan. She remained lying on her side and said grumpily, "Jovan, I''m
your sister-inw, and besides, men and women should keep a polite distance. Isn''t it inappropriate for
you toe into my roomte at night?" "I’ve already done so many inappropriate things, so it doesn''t
matter anyway," Jovan joked as he ced the tray on the nightstand and pulled a chair over to sit near
Renee''s bed. He tried to persuade her patiently, "I heard from Lisa that you neither ate nor drank today.
It''s very silly of you to punish me like this since you''ll be the one suffering in the end. Be good and eat,
then you can beat me up or scold me. That way, you can vent your anger and feel better. Wouldn''t it be
killing two birds with one stone?"
Renee kept her back to Jovan and didn''t move. "Take the tray away; I’m not going to eat anything. I''m
not punishing you either. I just want to go on a hunger strike and die so I won''t be at your mercy." It
wasn''t known if she had said those words to infuriate Jovan or if she actually meant it, but it was
infuriating and pitiful.
Jovan clenched his fists and tried to calm himself, taking a while to suppress his anger. Taking a deep
breath, he said lightly, "There are a lot of ways for you to kill yourself if you want to die. For example,
you can eat so much that you die from it, or you can sleep so much that you die infort, or you can
scold me every day until you die of contentment. Anything is better than dying from a hunger strike!
Don''t you know that people who die of hunger are the least prestigious among the spirits?"
Renee was intrigued by this statement and asked, "Why''s that?" "It''s because they are the weakest.
People who hang themselves to death have deep resentment, and people who drown be soaked
andrge. People who jump off buildings to kill themselves are the fiercest... Only the people who die
of hunger will get bullied after death because they don''t have enough to eat," Jovan exined
seriously, making Renee smile in amusement. Jovan sighed in relief and hurriedly handed her a piece
of dessert. "It makes sense, right? So, eat more and smile more so you can be a smiling spirit.
That''s the best thing you can be in hell. How great would that be?" "Shut up. I''ll eat, okay?" After
starving for a day, Renee''s belly was growling. She felt like giving up on her hunger strike the moment
Jovan came in with the supper, but didn''t want to admit defeat out of pride. She wanted to go through
with it for at least a day. However, Jovan''s spirit theory made her give in. Renee felt that she might as
well eat well instead of bing a weak and hungry spirit. If she found any spirit an eyesore in hell,
she could at least fight them. After all, she would be more powerful if she ate more.
Renee epted the cake and started munching on it. "Mm, it''s nice." "Of course, Lisa made it based
on your taste preference. She didn''t add any preservatives or voring either, so it''s both tasty and
nutritious." Jovan was happy that Renee was enjoying her food.
"Lisa is a good woman, and you''re the only one she cares about. You should try dating Lisa instead of
getting involved with a vicious woman like Briar. Don''t let her down." While eating, Renee tried to
persuade Jovan earnestly.
