Chapter 75 - Ghost Eyes

Translator: Yuzu

“Senior Xiao Chen.”

Xiao Chen, who was staring out of the window, looked at the source of the voice calling him.

The one who spoke was a girl with a pretty face and a good temperament. Her face had a thin layer of red that seemed to rise because of shyness. She was wearing a skirt that didn’t go past her knees, and she had a good figure. She was the kind of girl who looked very popular, and it was not too much to say that she was a goddess.

Xiao Chen was expressionless. His pair of phoenix eyes were charming, yet there was no emotion in them.

“That, are you free today? Can we have lunch together later?” The girl asked cautiously as if she was worried about being rejected. Her movements were also somewhat restrained and rushed, and her two hanging hands were slightly unsettled.

Xiao Chen was silent for three seconds and did not make a sound, as if he was thinking of a suitable reason for refusing someone.

The girl saw through his mind, and her expression was a bit embarrassed. She hurriedly said, “If you’re not available, just forget it, we can meet again later, okay?”

The girl said very thoughtfully and nicely at the same time. Not only did she give Xiao Chen an excuse to refuse this time, but she also did not make it too awkward for the two of them. Then, she proposed a new invitation, which made it difficult to refuse her again.

Xiao Chen raised his eyes and calmly met the girl’s gaze, who looked a little shifty from such a look.

Xiao Chen directly stretched out the left hand that had been placed on the table, waved it in front of the girl’s eyes, and spoke, “Sorry, I’m married.”

The girl’s face instantly became white, like she heard something unbelievable. She froze in place, her mouth dropped open, and her eyes watered. She turned around and ran away while covering her eyes.

Xiao Chen’s expression did not waver throughout, and he did not feel the slightest bit of guilt when the girl ran away in tears. He sat there, turned his head back, and continued to look out the window.

The next second, someone sat in front of his desk. The person was holding a book, a pen, and a glass of lemonade with ice.

Wang Qingchuan laughed and teased, “How come another schoolgirl is crying over your wedding news ah.”

The boy’s tone is still mostly teasing with a bit of gloating.

To be honest, the first time he heard Xiao Chen say he was married, he also silently went back to digest the news for a whole night before accepting it. However, after so long, he has never even seen the marriage partner or seen Xiao Chen make a suspiciously ambiguous phone call.

He could not help but think several times that Xiao Chen had made up the lie to refuse a confession. Still, Xiao Chen’s poker face was not like a person who would joke with such words.

Xiao Chen picked up the book on the table, looked at the boy, stood up, and indifferently said, “You talk too much.”

Then, he left without hesitation. His face still without any fluctuation as he left the boy sitting in the same place.

“You smell so good.” The man with a wicked face and big nostrils was drooling. His eyes were bloodshot, and he was holding a crushed and bloody arm in his one intact hand. His feet were not on the ground but floating in the air, and it was horrifying.

Especially from Xiao Chen’s perspective, he was even able to see other students who did not know the truth walked directly through the man’s body, going back and forth.

And the man kept making circles around Xiao Chen, coming up from time to time to smell Xiao Chen’s body, mouth drooling as if looking at a delicious meat.

Xiao Chen’s eyebrows tightly wrinkled together, and his breath was even a little restrained. Cold sweat was on his temples, but his feet are still walking at a normal speed. He did not bother to look at the man’s face as if there is no difference with everyone around.

Of course, in addition to this man, he could see all kinds of ghosts at a glance in the library. Some were homeless beggars, and some were students who committed suicide in school. There were all kinds of weird and strange ones.

In the eyes of other students, Xiao Chen has facial paralysis. Usually, no matter how to tease him, he will not have any change of expression.

But that’s because they don’t know that Xiao Chen can see ghosts since childhood. He forced himself into a facial paralysis as a way to cover up his fear when he sees something inhuman.

The man wanted to come closer to Xiao Chen, but he was burned by something fierce when his feet were only three meters away from Xiao Chen. The expression on his face instantly became hideous and agonized. His face, which was already not very pleasant, became very distorted.

The man threw his head back and let out a sharp moan/groan. Even the arm he was holding was thrown to the ground by himself as he crouched straight down with his whole body trembling in place.

Xiao Chen did not even turn his head back but could hear that mournful scream getting louder and louder.

He walked straight out the door of the library and seemed to have long been accustomed to it.

The weather today is quite strange. It was very foggy when he got up in the morning, and there was no trace of the sun coming out during the day. It was very gloomy, along with the lack of sunshine.

Xiao Chen’s footsteps stopped at the side of the road because of the traffic light, and his gaze unconsciously landed at the little girl squatting on the crosswalk.

The little girl looked to be only 13 or 14 years old, and her features were already difficult to discern. She was bloodied and was wearing a white dress.

That’s.........

Xiao Chen’s brow furrowed, and his expression was somewhat serious.

The white dress that she was wearing. There was blood all over the private part of her body. What’s even stranger is that there was only blood in that area, while the rest of her body was clean and dry.

After death, people will be in their last form of flesh/body before they die and continue to live in the world as ghosts. Most ghosts will even be trapped in the last place before they die and cannot leave because of their obsession.

There was blood in that kind of place, and the connection between it and the death of the little girl would invariably make people think of something terrible.

The little girl kept her head down. She squatted on the crosswalk with cars passing through her body. No one could see her as she remained in place like a wooden stake.

Xiao Chen could not help but speculate in his mind about the cause of this little girl’s death.

But the next scene that happened made a crack appear on his always expressionless face.

When a car is only about ten meters away from the little girl and is about to hit her, a figure jumped out from the opposite side of the road, grabbed the little girl’s hand, and then avoided the car.

It happened so fast that it instantly attracted everyone around to stop.

It is also fortunate that the car owner reacted quickly to stop the car and avoided having a car accident.

The car owner broke out in a cold sweat and furiously rolled open the window, cursing, “You are sick, suddenly rushing out like that.”

The scolded boy paused, gasping for breath.

He was stunned because of the car owner’s remarks. He opened his mouth and intended to argue that he almost hit a girl, but when he turned around to look at the girl he had just saved, he found that the person who should have been standing next to him had disappeared at some point.

And everyone around him was looking at him with an expression like they had seen a ghost, like he had done something hurtful.

Because the boy was not hurt, plus the car behind him had been urging him, the car that almost hit the boy soon drove again.

The boy stood in place with a dumbfounded look on his face. He raised both hands, stared at his palms, looked back at the ground, and gulped.

Obviously, the touch just now was real!

How could this happen?

He can’t be seeing ghosts, right?

At that very moment, the green light on the pedestrian walkway came on, and Xiao Chen followed the flow of people forward.

Xiao Chen glanced at the boy who was already completely dumb in his spot and then at the little girl who was standing motionless and staring at the boy’s face in a daze.

At this moment, Xiao Chen noticed that the little girl’s face began to repair at a speed visible to the naked eye. The features, which were initially a puddle of mush, slowly filled up. The skin turned from red to white, transforming into a regular human face.

The boy let out a deep breath and slapped his head with his hand. He picked up his school bag, which he had just thrown on the ground in a hurry, patted the dust on it, and fled the scene in disarray.

The boy did not know that the little girl followed him and left the original place where she was trapped.

However, the boy did not look at the little girl from the beginning to the end. To be precise, he could no longer see her.

Xiao Chen’s house was bought near the school, so he doesn’t stay in a dormitory.

At this time, he was standing at the door of his house, hesitating to take out the key from his pocket. Just at that moment, the door was opened very naturally.

The strange thing is that no one is standing at the door, and there was only the transparent air. However, Xiao Chen is not surprised by this. He changed into his slippers by the door and walked straight in.

There was already food prepared on the table, and it looked smoky even from a distance, so it was clear at a glance that it hadn’t been long since it was ready.

Xiao Chen just sat down on the chair when his shoulders were held from behind. A head was placed next to his neck, inhaling his scent, and his long hair was tangled in Xiao Chen’s clothes. Xiao Chen moved uncomfortably and adjusted his posture so that the man behind him could hold him with more comfort.

“Baby, you’re back.” Jing Hezhi rubbed his head against Xiao Chen’s neck. Then, he couldn’t resist extending his teeth to take a bite at Xiao Chen’s collarbone. It didn’t take long for it to turn red and become a hickey.

The man is not wearing modern clothes. On the contrary, the man’s clothes were very complicated. There was a belt around his waist, and his long hair was not tied up with anything and was hanging down naturally on the sides. His large red outer garment looked loose and saggy, like the kind of wretched beauty portrayed in a story.

Xiao Chen’s face was a little red from the man’s kiss.

Only in the place where there is this man that there are no unjust ghosts around, so Xiao Chen does not need to continue to have a cold face and hide his fear.

He turned around graciously in the man’s arms to face him, stopping at a distance of only a few centimeters.

Xiao Chen unashamedly reached out both hands and directly hooked the man’s neck so that the man had to lower his head. Then, he boldly moved closer and bit hard on the man’s chin.

Jing Hezhi smiled, and the corners of his mouth rose.

This smile completely stunned Xiao Chen and made the blush on Xiao Chen’s face even redder.

Xiao Chen moved his hands to the man’s waist and pushed them through the man’s loose clothing to wrap his arms around the other man’s waist.

The hands were still moving around dishonestly.

However, the man directly scooped up Xiao Chen from his chair with one hand. His eyes narrowed dangerously, “It seems that you don’t plan to eat first.”

Xiao Chen dropped a kiss on the man’s lips without the slightest bit of coyness, “I want to eat you.”
