CH 77

The hostess aunt at the door had already run out of sight.

Jiang Luo stood up with a sullen face and tied his robe around him. The threat Chi You had just made echoed in his ears.

“Address my desires or kill you oh.”

Chi You only gave him two options.

Either get laid or be killed by him.

But who the fuck would listen to him.

Jiang Luo looked up and saw the stone heart and a Yuan Tianzhu that he had deliberately placed there above the coffee table.

These two things are plainly visible, conspicuous and straightforward.

Grass the fuck up.

Jiang Luo’s mood has worsened.

He used them as bait and set up traps around the area, which would have killed Chi You at least half of the time if he had dared to go there. And yet, Chi You didn’t even take them when they were right in front of him?

Didn’t even look at it?

Jiang Luo’s heart sank to the bottom.

Whether Chi You didn’t see it, or saw it but didn’t bother to take it, it’s a bad sign – that his desire for Jiang Luo was so great that he ignored them.

It’s not good, it’s not good.

The evil spirit’s desires are so swift and uncompromising that they seem to be more important to him than his soul or his heart. Jiang Luo’s eyes fluttered, and he wanted to grab Chi You by the collar and beat him up again.

Jiang Luo torments Chi You all night, returning each of his eighteen deaths to the evil spirits, and Jiang Luo even gets bored of playing with them. He saved the most painful deaths and decided to return them in a way that would be more memorable to the evil spirit.

No one expected that Chi You would …… react to him in this situation.

It’s not that Jiang Luo didn’t notice Chi You’s gradual recovery, but he originally thought that Chi You would be lured in by Yuan Tianzhu and the stone heart, and fall into a trap of his own. But what he didn’t expect was that the evil spirit would end up looking for the bait, and it would turn out to be himself.

Jiang Luo held his anger in his heart for a few days, but cursed, “Fuck.”

He grimaced and went into the bathroom to wash off any part of his body that had been touched by Chi You. When he stepped out of the shower, he saw that the room was filled with a dense crowd of people standing around.

Jiang Luo , “……”

What’s coming is coming.

Sai Liaoer and the others are still fresh out of bed, in their pyjamas, their hair in a mess like a chicken’s nest. On the sofa sat the dean and a few other teachers from the school, while Ye Xun and his group stood around it.

Dean Xu was sitting in the middle of the sofa, his face stern and his hands on his crutches. Neither he nor anyone else looked well – especially after seeing the mess in the room.

Things smashed all over the place, glass and porcelain tiles popped everywhere, blood was spattered, a few drops dripped from the walls, the floor and even the blanket by the bathroom door.

An appearance of having been in a fierce battle.

When Dean Xu arrived in a hurry and saw such a scene, he was so angry that he almost sulked. Only when he heard from the hostess aunt that Jiang Luo was in good health did his heart drop to the bottom of his throat.

They were taken aback by the incoherent phone call from the house manager, who thought the boy had martyred himself again. Upon seeing the scene, Dean Xu’s heart plunged, knowing that it was not Jiang Luo’s martyrdom, but an intrusion by an outsider.

It’s just a suicide, it wouldn’t have made the scene look like this yet.

After seeing Jiang Luo emerge from the bathroom, Dean Xu understood that the outsider must be Chi You.

Although Dean Xu came in a hurry, the people he brought with him were all people who knew about Jiang Luo and Chi You, and had been told twice by Dean Xu that they would never reveal this secret.

It was also because of Dean Xu’s protection that the gossip about Jiang Luo and Chi You was only circulated within the school and did not reach the ears of the six families.

In addition to the teachers, Dean Xu also asked Jiang Luo’s classmates to come along, he just hoped that these young people could persuade Jiang Luo.

It is often said that nothing can happen more than three times, at least in the case of Dean Xu, and Jiang Luo’s accident has happened for the third time. The more one gets involved in these matters of right and wrong between humans and ghosts, the harder it is to separate them. Dean Xu, who knows Chi You well, does not consider Chi You to be a selfish person, and Jiang Luo is one of his most promising juniors, so naturally, he does not want them to get deeper and deeper into the situation together.

He pities Chi You and sympathises with Jiang Luo, but everyone knows that even if they love each other and regret it, human ghosts cannot be united.

President Xu had long wanted to summon Chi You’s spirit to talk to him about this issue, but Chi You’s spirit was not available, so President Xu gave up the idea. He thought that Jiang Luo would be afraid of Tian Shifu’s name because he had taken Feng Li as his teacher, but this happened again.

What frightened Dean Xu was the fact that this was in a school! How did the evil spirits get into the school?

“Come here.” Dean Xu steadied himself and said mid-sentence.

Jiang Luo cursed Chi You a few more times in his mind before he sat down politely on the single sofa opposite Dean Xu.

Dean Xu said, “Are you seeing Chi You again?”

Jiang Luo nodded honestly.

Dean Xu’s hand shook as he rubbed his cane and looked on with the teachers beside him.

After a few moments, Dean Xu put away his shock and gave Jiang Luo a rambling lecture.

Seeing that Jiang Luo did not say anything, he sighed and said in a deliberately serious manner, “Do some soul-searching for me.”

Get up and get ready to take a few teachers to check if there are any flaws in the feng shui pattern in the school.

Wen Renlian sent him to the door, Dean Xu worriedly said to Wen Renlian, “You guys keep an eye on him and persuade him more. This boy is too infatuated, and if Chi You is still here …… we are the elders after all, there are things we cannot say, and we need you to say them.”

A faint smile appeared on Wen Renlian’s stony face: “Don’t worry, we’ll leave this place to you.”

Dean Xu sighed again, “This is something that I still have to tell Feng Li that kid ……”

Wen Renlian said, “Dean, you don’t have to tell Mr Feng.”

The dean wondered, “How so?”

Wen Renlian lowered his voice and said, “You don’t know that Chi You met Jiang Luo at the talent show earlier. Mr. Feng is away and doesn’t know about this. I’ve contacted him and he told me he’ll be back early, which should be in a couple of days. It’s not too late to talk to Mr Feng when he returns.”

Dean Xu felt justified, and he stroked his beard, which made him feel relieved to leave.

Wen Renlian watched their backs, put away her smile, hid her concern and turned to go back to her room.

In order to prevent Feng Li from getting angry with Jiang Luo, he deliberately said that it was Chi You who was pestering Jiang Luo, but now it looks as if his prophecy has come true.

Inside the room, Jiang Luo is surrounded by people.

The dark-haired young man’s expression was lost in thought as he leaned back on the sofa, his bathrobe tied securely but slightly oversized, clearly belonging to Chi You.

His dark hair was half dry and the cuts on his lips and ears were even more ambiguous than that. The teeth marks were deep across the top, leaving marks that could be described as excessive.

Even more frightening than that are the ghostly handprints Jiang Luo holds on one of his ankles.

On skin as white as cold jade, the green ghostly handprints are gruesome and sinister.

Wen Renlian looked at the ghostly handprint for a moment with a sullen expression and closed the door.

Sai Liaoer, so sleepy that he was about to fall asleep standing up, struggled to open his eyes and said drowsily, “Jiang, why are you here?”

His turquoise eyes flicked hard towards Jiang Luo, “How did you get your mouth, bitten through?”

Lu Youyi strangled Sai Liaoer’s neck and said with hatred, “Look at me clearly, did you bite that yourself?

Wen Renlian was just beginning to feel a little relieved when he heard Lu Youyi say, “That’s obviously because he fell down accidentally and knocked his teeth on his lip!”

The dead man gave Lu Youyi a dumb look, he didn’t think Lu Youyi was right.

The strangest thing was that he could smell his master’s scent on Jiang Luo’s body again. Only this scent was a little off, a little fainter than usual.

Hasn’t the master gone to a place no one knows about?

The dead ghosts are inexplicable.

Ge Zhu was already sitting next to Jiang Luo, reaching out and taking his pulse to see if he had any internal deficits.

If you have intercourse with a ghost, it is a meeting of yin and yang, and the yang energy of the living will be sucked up by the ghost.

“Huh?” But as soon as he touched it, Ge Zhu felt that something was wrong and he said to himself, “Strange, Jiang Luo is in good health, he’s not weak.”

“Did Chi You pay attention to this and not take Jiang Luo’s yang energy?”

Zhuo Zhongqiu laughed coldly, and with a push in her hand, the TV remote control she had picked up from the floor shattered into crumbs, “If he really noticed this, he wouldn’t have come to Jiang Luo twice.”

Wen Renlian walked over to Jiang Luo and sat down. After a moment of silence, he said coldly, “You did it?”

Wen Renlian once asked Jiang Luo this question.

But at first, Jiang Luo only replied that he and Chi You had done it in a dream, that it was an erotic dream, a false experience that did not exist. But now, time and time again, Chi You is clearly having intimate affairs with Jiang Luo in reality.

As soon as the question was asked, the atmosphere in the room fell silent.

They waited with bated breath for Jiang Luo’s reply.

Jiang Luo’s cheeks reddened slightly, a dreamy hue tinting his beautiful face as he whispered, “Not yet.”

The atmosphere was suddenly relieved.

Jiang Luo’s Yu Guang glanced at the clock and it was only seven in the morning.

How should he go about securing his personal safety this evening?

“Chi You said you wanted to have sex with me tonight” – the fire in Jiang Luo’s heart still burns fiercely now that he has just been threatened, a statement he can’t utter just yet.

Even if it was an act, he was afraid he would twist up a face.

Jiang Luo was about to find an excuse to gather people to stay with him for the night, but Wen Renlian stood up instantly as if he was in touch with him and said, “Qi Ye told me earlier that he was inviting us to dinner tonight and to stay out for the night, and if I remember correctly, there will be a fun parade of a hundred ghosts in the city centre in the next two nights , and we can attend that too.”

He could not be denied and inquired, ” Jiang Luo , come along?”

Jiang Luo tried to hold back a smile from the corner of his lips, “No problem.”

Wen Renlian is desperate to make Jiang Luo forget about Chi You and is desperate to set Qi Ye and Jiang Luo up. He even wants Jiang Luo to move on the next second and leave that evil spirit behind.

Without delay, he picked up his mobile phone and walked out, ready to call Qi Ye.

Zhuo Zhongqiu and Ge Zhu look at each other and send Jiang Luo back to his dormitory to pack his things.

As Ye Xun walked behind them, Lu Youyi scratched his head and asked in a small voice, ” Ye Xun, did Chi You bite the marks on Jiang Luo’s mouth?”

Ye Xun glanced at him, “You’re just reacting to this?”

Lu Youyi wondered, “I just can’t figure out how Chi You …… he’s getting out of line.” Why did you bite someone’s mouth?

Ye Xun hugged Xiao Fen and said coldly, “I have long said that human beings and ghosts are different. Zhong Qiu is right, even a good person will become a different person when he turns into an evil ghost, but instead of seeking revenge on the person who killed him, Chi You has been haunting Jiang Luo over and over again.

Lu Youyi abruptly froze.

Ye Xun stopped and stared straight at him: “He wants Jiang Luo to die and be with him as a pair of ghostly lovers.”

*

After a long time, Lu Youyi said with a bitter smile, “You have a point.”

He clenched his fists and murmured, “I will never let Chi You hurt Jiang Luo.”

Initially, they protected Jiang Luo because they did not want Chi You to make a mistake.

But now, they just want Jiang Luo to live easily and happily, pure and simple.

He’s always trying, always trying to get stronger to find the truth about Chi You’s death, what’s wrong with him?

Since Chi You’s death, they have not once seen Chi You in the guise of an evil spirit.

Lu Youyi thought with disappointment.

Chi You Why did it turn out this way?

Or did they never get to know Chi You?

*

Jiang Luo returned to his dormitory and before he could sit down, Zhuo Zhongqiu and Ge Zhu quickly packed a bag of luggage for him.

Fearing that staying here might distract Jiang Luo, they hurriedly took him out of the school and to his hotel accommodation.

On the way out of school, Wen Renlian gave Jiang Luo a mask to cover his injured lip so that it would not get infected by the wind.

When they arrived at the hotel, Qi Ye was waiting for them in the lobby.

I don’t know what Wen Renlian said to Qi Ye, but Qi Ye is wearing a suit today. The suit is slim and noble, and it flatters the young man’s already tall figure, making it even more sophisticated. But Qi Ye’s handsome face is slightly red with discomfort, and his eyebrows seem to be raised impatiently as a youthful and vigorous air comes over him.

The moment he saw him, Jiang Luo’s footsteps gave a faint, unnoticeable jerk.

This is because Qi Ye’s style is clearly a Chi You outfit.

Damn.

What’s a good-looking guy doing dressing like that pervert?

Wen Renlian, beside him, did not miss his every expression and naturally did not overlook the slightest hint of something amiss. With a smile in his eyes, he nodded secretly and gave Qi Ye an appreciative look.

Jiang Luo sure does like this type of person.

Qi Ye walked quickly towards them, his eyes darting over Jiang Luo’s face, “You guys are really slow.”

“There was some traffic on the road.” Wen Renlian explained.

Qi Ye wasn’t really complaining, he was just being a character. Instead of saying more, he reached out and forcefully grabbed the bag Jiang Luo was carrying, slung it over his shoulder with one hand and tilted his head sideways, “Let’s go, the room is ready for you.”

Zhuo Zhongqiu asked, “Did you pay for it? We’ll turn around and transfer the money to you.”

Qi Ye was about to say “forget it” when he saw the lobby manager striding over and smiling at Lu Youyi with a chrysanthemum crease, “Why didn’t you give us a heads up when the little boss arrived?”

The group turned their heads in silence to look at Lu Youyi.

Lu Youyi said sheepishly, “I’m sorry, I forgot, I think this hotel is also owned by my family.”

Qi Ye : “……”

Lu Youyi laughed twice, “I’ll ask them to give you your money back afterwards.”

“No need.” Qi Ye refused stiffly.

Because of Lu Youyi, the hotel rooms they had previously booked were upgraded. The best rooms were all given to them.

The lobby manager took them to the door of their room and gave them warm spring-like service before reluctantly leaving.

Qi Ye stood sullenly at the end with Jiang Luo, who wondered why he was unhappy. Shouldn’t a normal person be happy to have a fancy hotel without having to pay for it?

He was in a much better mood because of it anyway.

” Qi Ye ,” Jiang Luo asked, pretending to be casual, “has the Qi family not found Yuan Tianzhu yet?”

Qi Ye’s face darkened, “No.”

Including today, four days have passed since Yuan Tianzhu was lost.

“I don’t understand,” Qi Ye whispered to Jiang Luo, “it’s just a bead that is of no use to our family, so if you lose it, you lose it. My father wasn’t going to give it to the family either, so why was he in such a hurry?”

Jiang Luo said carelessly, “When the Qi family reaches your generation, you are very gifted, so naturally you do not need Yuan Tianzhu. But others, such as your relatives’ siblings, do not necessarily not need it.”

“No,” Qi Ye butted in, “the family I am talking about is everyone in the Qi family. My father was not going to give them the use of Yuan Tianzhu; he was going to give it away to affiliated families who had defected to the Qi family, or to student disciples who were loyal to the Qi family.”

Hmm?

Jiang Luo’s eyes narrowed slightly, this would be fun.

Is it possible that the Qi family is really a family that sacrifices itself for others? Instead of using their own people, they are giving up this Yuan Tianzhu that can enhance their spiritual bodies to others?

He didn’t believe that the Kissi family could really be so pure and good.

In between his thoughts, Qi Ye suddenly said in a low, squirming voice, “By the way, what do you think of me …… today?”

Jiang Luo’s brow twitched and he said, against his conscience, “It’s okay.”

Qi Ye raised the corner of his lips uncontrollably and tried to suppress it, he shoved the bag in Jiang Luo’s hand, clenched his fist against his lips and coughed a few times with a tickle in his throat, “Come on, go and get some rest, Wen Renlian and I said you probably didn’t sleep all night… I don’t know what you’re doing to stay up all night,” he muttered, “go catch up on your sleep and I’ll call you at dinner tonight.”

Zhuo Zhongqiu, who had heard their conversation in front of them, turned back and answered, “By the way, play a game, cards, mahjong, anything else, internet cafes are fine, all night tonight.”

They were also obviously worried that Chi You would come back for Jiang Luo tonight.

Jiang Luo smiles and nods in agreement as he and Zhuo Zhongqiu clash fists and go back inside to bury their heads in bed and catch up on sleep.

Jiang Luo woke up gasping for breath, sweating profusely and soaking the bedding with a mark.

Jiang Luo took a break and when he looked at the time, it was already after 6pm.

The days grow shorter and the sky drowsy as the weather fades into autumn.

Soon after Jiang Luo woke up, there was a knock at the door, ” Jiang Luo, are you awake? Let’s go eat.”

Jiang Luo got up and went to wash his face, put on his hat and took his mask and walked out, “Okay.”

They went for a hotpot.

Ten people were seated at two tables, with a semi-enclosed space formed by a draped curtain around the table. The shopkeeper has put two tables together, two hot pots on one left and one on the other, and they are considered to be eating at one table.

Jiang Luo came back from mixing the spices and adding the food to the clear soup pot, but as it got darker and later, he became more and more distracted.

Jiang Luo is a little anxious in a rare way.

This agitation is not a fear of the evil spirits, but more like a …… raw fear that the threat of the evil spirits will become real unease.

Seriously, even if Jiang Luo may have felt some hidden and obscure smugness at the fact that Chi You had lusted after him. But what he had said to Chi You was completely tongue-in-cheek; how could he have slept with an evil spirit?

Once bitten by the evil spirit, he may not even have any bones left.

Plus.

He thought, not without harshness.

Can he react when confronted with Chi You?

Chi You, with that hard body, could he be interested in him?

Jiang Luo ate his meal one bite at a time, slowly, looking preoccupied. As the minutes turn, Qi Ye, who is sitting next to him, peeks at him several times and says, “What are you thinking about?”

Jiang Luo looked back, “Hmm?”

Qi Ye frowned, “Have you lost your appetite?”

He took a jar of vinegar from the side, “Some vinegar to whet your appetite?”

As he spoke, Yu Guang of Qi Ye glanced at the dead ghost.

Why is this person always staring at Jiang Luo?

Not feeling too comfortable, he raised his arm slightly to block the dead ghost’s view.

Jiang Luo shook his head and was about to say something when he heard a voice outside saying with a low smile, “Good evening, everyone.”

Everyone’s movements froze and they all looked up towards the door in unison.

A pair of leather shoes stops in front of the door and pale hands lift the cloth curtain to reveal the evil spirit standing outside the door. The evil spirit was as elegant and svelte as if he were a living person. He is dressed in a neat and slim black suit with a slight flash of red jewels at the cuffs. His eyes are dark and he smiles as he glances over everyone, pausing for a few seconds on Qi Ye, who is dressed very similarly to him, before settling on Jiang Luo’s body.

“I’ve come for you,” the evil spirit stepped forward, the pin on his bow tie shaped like a rose delicate and elegant, the words he spat from his lips as if they had been deliberately contained in ambiguity, ” Jiang Luo .”
