At this moment, Zhi Xian pulled out a yellow piece of paper and handed it to Wu Mabo, saying, “Ke Lin can’t touch me. Give this to him.”
His tone was gentle, “Hold onto it. It can guide you to find me. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. Xiaosong and I will help you.”
Ke Lin happily accepted the paper, “See, with this, what else do you need to worry about? Alright then, see you tonight. I’ll go elsewhere for a stroll. I really can’t sit still here.”
Zhi Xian chuckled, “You two chat. I’m leaving. You’ll be fine once I’m gone.”
Ke Lin: …
Zhi Xian rubbed Tong Xiaosong’s head and reminded him, “Eat more, gain some weight. Consider moving out, it’s a suggestion. Think about it.”
Tong Xiaosong hurriedly said, “No need to consider, I’ll move out.”
Wu Mabo, Wen Dong: …
Zhi Xian paused for a moment, his smile deepening, “In a few days, I haven’t finished decorating yet. Don’t be in a hurry, just wait a little longer.”
Tong Xiaosong realized how he might appear to others now, as if he were eager to move in with Zhi Xian. His face flushed red.
“I, I’m not, I’m not in a hurry.” Tong Xiaosong explained to his roommates with a blush, “I won’t be living in the dorm anymore, so you won’t encounter these strange incidents again, otherwise…”
Before he could finish his sentence, he felt a soft touch on his forehead.
Looking up, he saw Zhi Xian smiling as he stood up straight, “No need to explain this time, they’ll understand. I’m leaving.”
Tong Xiaosong only then realized that Zhi Xian had just kissed his forehead.
His cheeks flushed with warmth, feeling ticklish where he was kissed. He silently sat up straight, lowering his head to continue eating.
As soon as Zhi Xian left, Ke Lin sat back down, saying, “Tong Xiaosong, doing big things without making a sound? I underestimated you.”
Wen Dong laughed, “Indeed underestimating him. You didn’t know, the night when Lei Haoyu moved in, Da Bo was about to punch him. Tong Xiaosong pulled Da Bo back to stop him, but then suddenly let go. After Da Bo punched Lei Haoyu, Tong Xiaosong pulled him back again. That was the first time I realized Tong Xiaosong could intervene in fights, haha…”
Listening to his roommates’ words, Tong Xiaosong silently buried his face in his bowl of food.

Lei Haoyu had been absent-minded all day.
He couldn’t help but wonder, was that really a dream?

Why did it feel so real?

Unable to bear it any longer, he didn’t care about his pride and asked, “Have you all gone to sleep?”
Others: …
Lei Haoyu couldn’t help but toss and turn, feeling not only the chill at the back of his neck but also a sense of being watched.
He suddenly sat up, “Fuck! Are you all fucking dead or what?”
As he spoke, a hand emerged from under the bed, grabbing fiercely onto his wrist placed at the bedside.
The hand was damp and chilling, sending shivers down his spine.
“Ah!” Lei Haoyu let out a piercing scream, his eyes rolling back as he fainted.
***
Ke Lin crawled out from under the bed, saying, “… That was way too easy to scare you.”
Wu Mabo chuckled, “Serves him right. Da Lin, come up to my bed and squeeze in with me. Let’s continue chatting.”
Wen Dong couldn’t help but laugh too.
Tong Xiaosong: …
***
For several days in a row, Lei Haoyu felt physically and mentally exhausted, living in fear every day.
He deeply regretted why he had played the ghost game that night.
In the first place, he shouldn’t have transferred to this haunted place.
Right! Transferring!
He said, “Transfer, I want to transfer…”
Wu Mabo looked up from his instant noodles, snickering, “Transfer? I heard that even when you transfer, the dirty stuff follows you. Are you sure?”
Lei Haoyu despairingly lay back on the bed, eyes staring blankly, “Then what should I do…”
Wu Mabo: “How about this? If you call me ‘dad’ and promise never to play ghost games again, I’ll try to help you out. What do you think?”
Tong Xiaosong, who was studying, paused for a moment: …
Wen Dong couldn’t help but chuckle as he glanced at Wu Mabo taking advantage of the situation.
“Okay, I won’t play anymore! I won’t ever play again!” Lei Haoyu knelt on the bed, pleadingly looking at Wu Mabo, saying, “Dad, I won’t dare to play ghost games anymore! Please help me!”
Wu Mabo smirked triumphantly, “Alright, it’s a deal. Dad will help you get rid of him tonight.”
***
At night, as soon as Ke Lin appeared, Lei Haoyu rolled his eyes and fainted.
Wu Mabo: “… Why does he seem to be getting easier to scare?”
“He’s been scared out of his wits, his Yang energy is weakening, and his body can’t take it anymore,” Ke Lin sighed. “I should leave now.”
Wu Mabo was startled. “You’re leaving?”
Tong Xiaosong and Wen Dong also stood up.
Wen Dong asked, “Why are you leaving?”
“In a couple of days, it will be my Sanqi,” Ke Lin chuckled. “They will offer sacrifices to me, so I have to go back.”
Wu Mabo was puzzled. “Sanqi? Herbs?”
Ke Lin: …
Tong Xiaosong knew that it was the 21st day after someone’s passing, a very important day.
Wen Dong sighed, saying, “It’s similar to the significance of the seventh day. You have to go back. When will you come to play with us again?”
Ke Lin didn’t hesitate, “If you guys really can’t bear to part with me, I’ll come back after the ‘Sanqi’.”
Everyone: …
Wu Mabo: “… Just go.”
He thought that Ke Lin would be away for much longer, yet here he was, seemingly reluctant to leave.
***
Lei Haoyu slowly regained consciousness, hearing voices and laughter.
The ghost must have left, right?
He opened his eyes, and the next moment, he was stunned.
He saw his three roommates chatting and laughing with the ghost, who looked as unyielding as ever.
Oh my god, he must be having a hallucination.
Lei Haoyu rubbed his eyes, trying to see clearly.
The next moment, that unyielding face suddenly appeared right in front of him.
Scary!
Lei Haoyu rolled his eyes and fainted again.
Everyone else: …
Wu Mabo said speechlessly, “When did he wake up? He didn’t hear everything, did he?”
Ke Lin smirked, “He just woke up, haha, who knows, maybe he won’t remember anything tomorrow.”
Tong Xiaosong: … starting to feel sorry for Lei Haoyu.
Wen Dong said lightly, “Alright, stop scaring him. It’ll be bad if he really gets scared.”
***
The next day, Tong Xiaosong noticed that Lei Haoyu began avoiding them, even avoiding eye contact.
During lunchtime, Wu Mabo burst into laughter, saying, “I heard that he went to the school authorities, crying and making a scene, demanding a room change. But guess what? The school authorities just laughed and said… the same thing again, ‘Wait until there’s a vacancy or someone wants to swap rooms.’ Hahaha, justice served!”
Wen Dong intervened, “Alright, don’t overdo it. Let’s move on from this. As long as he stops playing ghost games, we can get along fine.”
Wu Mabo replied, “We can get along fine, but nobody can stop me from teasing him! Hahaha…”
I love our bros 😂😂😂
Reaped what you sow little boy haha
