61 Faux Sleep

"Miss ghost, I'm back!" Zhou Zhenya said as she went up the stairs to fetch the ugly-looking ghost.

Wen Hui turned her head on instinct as she heard the little girl's voice. Her face looked terrifying, startling Zhou Zhenya when she saw it again. Thankfully, she had prior knowledge that this lady was not an evil ghost, or else she might've run away already, leaving all of her precious tools behind.

"Oh, little miss...!" Wen Hui greeted the young lady as she heard the voice. However, as the little lady came into her view, she was surprised. In her hands... were Chanelle! They became popular for being the most expensive make-up in the whole country... how the heck did this little lady get her hands on it?

Who did she borrow these from? I don't know anyone who owns this brand of makeup... except maybe that vixen Ruan Juan. We never really did get along, so I'm not sure...

"Miss ghost, let's head to the restrooms now!" Zhou Zhenya said as she approached the amiable-looking ghost. Suddenly, she grabbed her arm and dragged her to the restroom, as she did earlier when she dragged her down the stairs.

"Eh, um, okay...!" Wen Hui was a little startled, but she soon recovered as the pair walked into their destination.

"Okay, miss ghost, now wash your face first!" Zhou Zhenya instructed the supposed supernatural being. Wait, can a ghost even touch material objects...?

Wen Hui nodded and was about to do it until she realized... what about her plan? She resolved herself to not remove the horrible makeup she put on her face just to chase Zhou Lei, that rascal, away. If she washed it away now, how would she accomplish that?

Not to be narcissistic, but I will admit that my natural beauty is higher than most. If he sees it, he would get an even greater desire to devour me whole!

She turned her head down as she grabbed her chin, with an expression that said: "I am thinking about something deep and important."

Zhou Zhenya saw this, making her confused. What is she contemplating about? Why will she not just wash her face? Then she recalled her earlier suspicions. Aha, I knew it! This is her problem!

Although I'm not an expert at ghost studies, surely, washing faces can be accomplished even by ghosts! If they can't, then it would render my thought-out plan useless... I need to reassure her.

With a smile, Zhou Zhenya spoke. "Miss ghost, don't worry. I'm sure you will succeed!" She closed one of her eyes and put a thumb up while showing her pearly whites.

Hearing the little lady's voice, Wen Hui was slightly startled. C- can she read minds? How does she know what I was thinking about? Well, fine, I guess...

Squeak! Fwoosh...

She twisted the knob, making the water flow out of the tap. Putting her hands under, she collected some water in her hands and rinsed her face.

Zhou Zhenya crossed her arms and closed her eyes as she waited for the ghost to finish. Waking up so early, it was inevitable that she would become drowsy.

Squeak! The sound of the water flowing stopped. Zhou Zhenya opened her eyes with great difficulty. In that short amount of time, her eyes had become moist again.

She looked at Wen Hui with wet eyes, giving her a slight difficulty in seeing. She first saw her clothes. The collar was splashed with water in some areas.

Her eyes gradually went towards Wen Hui's face...! What? What is this?

Where did miss ghost go?

.....

Zhou Lei had beads of sweat on his forehead. The pillow on his desk was sucking up all the sweat as he lied on it, his two arms blocking eyesight from reaching his delicate face.

Ma Xiaoli and the rest looked at Zhou Lei and blushed.

"He looks much better now...!"

"He's so dreamy, ahh..."

"I would have given him a perfect score before... Now, I would give him double the perfect score!"

"Wait till he wakes up, then he'll be surprised!"

These classmates of his did everything to better his already perfect looks. His socks that were a bit crunched up were now straight, as well as his pants and clothes. There was someone who brought an iron along...

If anyone woke up to this, there was a ninety-nine percent chance that they would be pleasantly surprised! The remaining one percent would be if that person was already used to such treatment.

That one percent... Zhou Lei might be entering soon...

However, right now, he was neither used to it nor happy. Instead, he was nervous as all heck.

That was because... he was awake the entire time.

In truth, Zhou Lei had faked his sleep from the moment he arrived. He did not expect that someone would ask to lend him a pillow, much less his beautiful classmate, Ma Xiaoli.

He wasn't sure who it was that would suddenly walk up to him like that until he heard the mutterings of his classmates. Not knowing how to respond, in the end, he faked his sleep, "snoring" just enough to make Ma Xiaoli get the hint.

What happened next surprised him even more, as Ma Xiaoli raised his head and put her pillow underneath. The inevitable happened, and the fragrance of the pillow reached Zhou Lei's nose, making him blush.

Oh my gosh! This... this is the smell of the number one most popular girl in the whole school, Ma Xiaoli! She smells... really good!

He was tempted to look at Ma Xiaoli's figure as she walked away. However, before he could do so, someone walked up to him right after Ma Xiaoli returned to her seat.

After that, it was a continuous violation of his privacy. Clothes were even taken off of him without his permission...

He was too nervous to reveal that he was awake the whole time, especially when the girls were removing his pants...
