Chapter 186 Test Of Courage (2)

Fifteen minutes had passed. All the students and ten teachers of Xing Xian school were almost to the top of the mountain.

The mountain was not very high. Therefore, they didn’t spend much time getting to the top.

The mountain was covered with trees, but it was not deserted. There were convenient man-made steps that led up to the top where He Yang shrine was.

All the students and teachers had their own flashlights in their hands.

Up on the mountain, it was so dark, flashlights were necessary. Without them, they would not have been able to walk around in the forest, let alone reach the top.

Even though there were steps to take, people might have fallen if they lost their footing.

“We’ll stop here. All of you will go for the test one pair at a time. You can freely choose your partner by yourself, and your partner doesn’t have to be of the same gender.”

While walking up, the ten teachers had eventually stopped and the middle-aged female teacher who represented Bai Chen’s class started to talk into her megaphone again.

All the students behind them also stopped walking. The line was rather long because of the number of students.

After hearing what the teacher said, almost all the male students were suddenly filled with excitement.

There was a high chance they would be paired up with the girls because the teachers allowed them to choose by themselves. There were actually more girls than boys.

Bai Chen immediately searched for Li Lin. He would not want to pair up with anyone but her. Not long afterwards, he eventually found her.

They were in the same class anyway, so their lines were not that far apart. That was why he could easily find her.

Likewise, she found him too. Their eyes eventually met. They immediately decided to walk past the crowd towards each other.

Right now, almost all of the students were already paired up. Most of them were a pair of the same gender.

A lot of boys were weeping internally because they did not get to pair up with girls like they had been hoping to.

“It seems like all of you are done pairing up, correct?” the middle-aged female teacher said. “Then, I’ll now explain roughly how to pass the test of courage.”

She stopped for a second to take out a piece of paper before she resumed her speech.

“You see this paper? The teachers have already put out a box in front of the shrine. Inside the box, there are papers like this. Each pair will have to take one out of the box and bring it back to the teachers. Only that and you’ll pass the test of courage. Easy, isn’t it?”

Some students thought it was easy, while some did not think it would be very easy.

Of course, no one said anything. They only nodded. It was a required school activity, so they had to do everything to pass the test or they would fail the activity for sure.

“Okay, now you all understand the rules. I’ll start with class 1-1.”

The middle-aged female teacher flashed her mysterious smile and chose the pair from class 1-1 who was at the front of the line to go to the shrine first.

All eyes were on them. Everyone was expecting something to happen or not to happen.

From what they had seen on the internet, the teachers usually dressed up as ghosts to scare the students during the test of courage.

Two to three minutes had passed. Suddenly, they all heard a girl scream from up on the mountaintop followed by the faint sound of people running.

The students were rather sure by now that the teachers had some of the students dress up as ghosts to scare them. The girls did not like this sort of thing, so they were grabbing each other’s hands in fear.

Some of the boys were also afraid, but the majority were not particularly scared.

A short while after that, the first pair came running back in fear. The faces of both the boy and the girl were as white as sheets like they had seen a ghost.

The teachers all had small smiles at the corners of their mouths. All ten of them seemed to be very satisfied with the outcome.

After the first pair handed their piece of paper in, the second pair was sent out immediately.

The rest of the students started to talk quietly to each other. They were all engaged in a serious conversation of what they had heard and seen so far. Some of them were starting to be scared, while some felt even more excited.

Another ten minutes passed. It was finally Bai Chen and Li Lin’s turn. They did not say anything while walking up the steps that led to the mountaintop to He Yang shrine.

After a while, they could not see anyone anymore. Suddenly, Li Lin moved closer to Bai Chen and grabbed his arm with her delicate hands.

Her chest also touched Bai Chen’s arm. Bai Chen trembled at feeling the softness. He abruptly stopped walking.

“What are you doing…?” Bai Chen turned to Li Lin and asked with a soft voice. His heart fluttered.

Li Lin looked up at him and said in a small voice like that of a mosquito’s, “I…I’m scared!”

“Is that so?” Bai Chen stroked his nose while looking at Li Lin’s cute face.

He clearly understood now why she’d grabbed his arm like that and had even let her chest touch it.

Looking at Li Lin’s cute face for a long time quickened Bai Chen’s breath. He looked at her moist-looking lips and thought that it had been a long time since their last kiss. It was as if a sudden desire had arisen in him.

Without hesitation, Bai Chen suddenly stole a kiss from Li Lin’s lips.

“Ermmm...” Li Lin’s cute, rounded eyes widened in surprise. She could only let out a small sound.

Her face suddenly reddened. Her heart pounded hard. She did not expect Bai Chen to abruptly kiss her like this.

‘T…This despicable man!’ Li Lin thought.

But she did not push him away. She only closed her eyes and let herself fall into the sensations from Bai Chen’s kiss. Without knowing it, her fear of ghosts had completely disappeared.End of Chapter 186
