Chapter 64 - Ghost School (End) (2/2)

“Enough, don’t touch him anymore.”

【Mistake warning: Conflict with Bai Yi. The fourth rule was violated.]

【Mistake Punishment: Immediate obliteration.]

A strong force that was enough to tear apart his soul suddenly invaded Gu Zhen’s body. He grunted and his face suddenly became very pale. A small stream of blood flowed out from the corner of his lip which he then wiped away with his hand.

A black paper human fell out from his pocket. Its chest had a hole in it and it drifted away in the wind.

Seeing that paper human, Bai Yi seemed to have noticed something. He suddenly hooked up the corner of his mouth and revealed a mocking smile to Gu Zhen.

That’s uncles substitute!

Yang Qian Fan panicked. Knowing that the punishment for violating the rules had already been activated, he immediately ran over and hugged onto Gu Zhen’s waist. With a fearful heart, he said: “Uncle, I’m scared. Can we leave this school? Let’s hurry and escape from here…….”

He said this as he raised his head and looked at him pleadingly. He then looked over at Cheng Zhi Chu.

“Mr Zhi Chu……….”

Cheng Zhi Chu noticed Gu Zhen’s situation, and could basically understand why he was angry. His face changed and he was a little worried about his condition, but he also knew that he shouldn’t say anything. He could only bow his head and avoid Gu Zhen’s gaze: “Let’s go.”

“……..Okay.”

Bai Yi’s eyes briefly swept over to Gu Zhen and he smiled. Gu Zhen also looked up at him. The two men’s eyes were extremely cold and there seemed to be a dark storm brewing between them.

……..

When they reached the school gate, Ou Yang and Zhao Xiao Pang were still in shock. They didn’t think that they would be able to leave the school alive.

In fact, after seeing Liang Wen Bin and Lu Jie die, they had thought that they would probably also die here. This was particularly the case when they saw Su Ling again on the rooftop. At that time, they were certain that it was retribution for the five of them.

But unexpectedly, Su Ling had turned into light and vanished, and it was even after Junior Cheng kissing him…..

Their moods were very conflicted. They looked over to Cheng Zhi Chu and, after a moment of silence, Ou Yang said: “Junior Cheng, I think we may need to thank you……..Was it because you knew something so you went to kiss Su Ling? Something like helping him pass on so that we could all be saved?”

“……..You can think of it like that.”

Cheng Zhi Chu thought about it and just explained vaguely to avoid survival points being deducted if he violated anything.

“I lost control of my consciousness for a while. You also saw it too. At that time, I had a dream. In the dream I found out about the way to help Su Ling pass on which was to kiss him…….”

“Thank you, Junior Cheng.”

Hearing his words, the Ou Yang pair were even more convinced that Cheng Zhi Chu had saved them and Bai Yi. They then thought of Liang Wen Bin and Li Jie who had died tragically, and Su Ling who had died and turned into a ghost. While feeling relieved that they were still alive, they also felt suffocating sadness and remorse.

Red eyed, tears flowed out from their eyes. It didn’t take long before they started to cry loudly. They squatted down and loudly cried for their friends.

“Liang Wen Bin, Li Jie……..We were wrong. We were all wrong…….”

“The dead cannot be resurrected. This applies to Su Ling, Su Ling’s father and the other two.”

Shen Qi Qi was aggrieved. She was angry about what they had done but she also felt inexplicable sadness. In a small voice, she said: “It’s too late regretting things now. What can you change now?”

Having said that, she once again looked over at Bai Yi and Cheng Zhi Chu. Her expression was very complicated. She didn’t know whether the two of them could continue being together after learning of the truth that had happened back then.

…….Even if they didn’t break up, they probably won’t be able to be as close as they used to be.

Because right from their ill-fated encounter at the very beginning, it was destined to be a cruel, dark and twisted relationship.

………….

The Ou Yang duo and Shen Qi Qi left the school first. The backs of their figures entered the darkness before disappearing and only the four players were left.

“Uncle, are you okay?”

After the three of them left, Yang Qian Fan couldn’t hold himself back anymore and anxiously asked Gu Zhen. Even if he had used the substitute, Gu Zhen’s injury was obviously quite severe. He had not experienced system punishments so he also didn’t know how severe it would be.

“It’s nothing.”

Gu Zhen drank a bottle of medicine, and his pale face recovered slightly. He rubbed Yang Qian Fan’s head. But when he finished saying that, he looked over at Bai Yi expressionlessly and asked coldly:

“You’re happy?”

“What do you mean? I don’t understand.” Bai Yi raised his eyebrow.

“Playing lovers with Cheng Cheng. You’re clearly having a lot of fun.”

Gu Zhen revealed a cold smile.

“You clearly didn’t need to, but you kissed him so many times. Why, do you like him that much?”

“But he can’t possibly like you.”

Bai Yi squinted his eyes and revealed a dangerous look.

“………..”

Hearing Gu Zhen’s words, Cheng Zhi Chu couldn’t help but feel guilty.

Bai Yi’s Diary (Part 64)

If I confess to Zhi Chu now, would he accept it?

……..No. I can’t rush it. If I do, I would probably become the next Gu Zhen.

It’s better to just commit suicide.
