Cen Yu looked at the message on his phone and was not surprised at all.

He originally asked Xiao Le to inquire about it for him, because he was curious about Pei Hengyun's identity, because according to his old classmates' recollections, Pei Hengyun was indeed quite different from the one they remembered.

But just now, after realizing that the "ghosts" in this world had touched other people's conditions, Cen Yu realized once again that something was wrong.

—Logically speaking, Pei Hengyun should be the one most afraid of ghosts in this instance.

But why has Pei Hengyun never actually encountered that "ghost," neither in the original novel nor now?

Or is he himself the ghost that shrouds the entire text?

Just then, the big fat cat returned to his head and began to communicate with him—

"Ahem, I tried to get it for you."

"The current dungeon content has been changed to—"

As the fat cat spoke, a task bar appeared in Cen Yu's field of vision—

[Task 1: Discover the truth behind the dungeon, who am "I"?]

[Task 2: Rewrite everyone's fate.]

[Task 3: Fulfill Xiaoyu's wish.]

Cen Yu glanced at the three newly released tasks. Compared to the previous simple role-playing tasks, perhaps because they were suspenseful and terrifying mini-dungeons, they also had a bit more of a puzzle-solving element.

"If I complete these three tasks, can I leave this instance?" Cen Yu asked.

The fat cat nodded, and perhaps sensing someone approaching from outside, it quickly disappeared from Cen Yu's mind again—

"Xiao Yu," Pei Hengyun's voice rang out from outside, "Are you alright?"

"Do you need to use the restroom?" Cen Yu calmly put his phone in his pocket and then pressed the flush button. "All done."

Then he walked over and opened the bathroom door, and saw Pei Hengyun slowly hopping over, supporting himself against the wall.

Under the lamplight, Pei Hengyun was still the same as Cen Yu remembered, with a gentle and melancholic air. He looked at Cen Yu and found that the other's expression was the same as usual... He was not sure how much Cen Yu knew, so he maintained his previous persona, "Jiang Tuan just called us downstairs for dinner."

Cen Yu checked the time and found that it was already 6 p.m.

It was indeed time to eat.

He nodded, washed his hands, and said to Pei Hengyun, "Let's go."

Cen Yu extended his arm, "I'll help you."

Pei Hengyun supported Cen Yu's arm, as if he were truly so weak and unable to take care of himself, pressing his entire weight onto Cen Yu... The moment Cen Yu felt Pei Hengyun's body leaning towards him, he felt the other's almost icy temperature.

It made his body tremble involuntarily.

Pei Hengyun seemed to notice Cen Yu's unease. He was already a bit taller than Cen Yu, and now his arm was draped over Cen Yu's shoulder. He squinted slightly at Cen Yu and asked, "What's wrong?"

He knew Cen Yu was pretending he hadn't noticed anything, but that didn't matter. He was very patient; he could wait a very long time.

"nothing."

Cen Yu said.

"I feel you've gained quite a bit of weight since this afternoon."

"..." Pei Hengyun knew, of course, that this was Cen Yu's excuse.

Cen Yu wouldn't confront Pei Hengyun right now. He obediently helped Pei Hengyun downstairs. Just then, he heard footsteps, indicating that someone was coming upstairs.

A few seconds later, He Yongning appeared at the top of the stairs on the third floor.

“I’ll help you,” He Yongning nodded.

He walked over and supported Pei Hengyun's other arm, as if to share Pei Hengyun's weight with Cen Yu.

Pei Hengyun's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes were full of malice... but he quickly smiled again, "Thank you."

Cen Yu supported Pei Hengjun's half-body, and together with He Yongning, they prepared to help Pei Hengjun downstairs. He was still wearing a T-shirt, and when he reached out to grab Pei Hengjun's arm, the hem of his shirt involuntarily rode up—

"hiss……"

Cen Yu suddenly gasped.

"What?" He Yongning looked at him through Pei Hengjun.

“…” Cen Yu really didn’t know how to tell He Yongning.

Should I yell that I was touched by a ghost?!

The wretched ghostly hand took the opportunity to touch his lower abdomen again, its two hands constantly caressing the tattoos on his body, and even showing a tendency to go further and further.

"Xiao Yu, what's wrong?" Pei Hengjun's face showed concern, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

"Hehe, it's nothing."

"I was touched by a dog."

Cen Yu said, giving himself another internal suggestion!

—Fox spirit, fox spirit, fox spirit!

Foxes are dogs too!

Whether it was his self-suggestion working again or not, the hand quickly disappeared... Cen Yu cursed Pei Hengyun for being so clumsy. He had previously thought that this person was pure and innocent, like a fairy descended from heaven, as if he could live on dew and had no basic human desires.

So it turns out that this person was reincarnated as a lecherous ghost, lacking basic human desires but possessing the desires of a lecherous ghost!

"?" He Yongning didn't understand Cen Yu's words at first, but then he remembered the scene he saw in the old house.

Could it be that "Xiaoyu" has reappeared?

Pei Hengyun understood Cen Yu's veiled criticism, and he asked Cen Yu seriously, "Do dogs touch people?"

"I thought it only knew how to lick people?"

"..." What do you mean, kid?

Cen Yu looked at Pei Hengyun's serious face, and suddenly felt something cold and soft touch the back of her neck.
