Chapter 58
During lunch, Wang He came over reluctantly with a dark face and gave the chicken leg in his bowl to Yun Mian.
Yun Mian had no intention of sharing and immediately picked up the chicken leg and ate it, which made Wang He even more angry and grit his teeth.
When he angrily sat back in his seat, a boy next to him patted his shoulder and whispered, "Don't be angry, she is so healthy, she will definitely be adopted soon, and then the chicken leg will still be yours."
Wang He: “…”
Damn, that sounds even angrier!
Yunmian didn’t think she was hateful, nor did she think about who would adopt her.
To be precise, she did not realize that she had become an orphan, so in just one day, the children in the welfare home all realized that Yunmian was different from themselves.
Most of their clothes were donated by caring people in the society, and many of them did not fit them well, either too big or too small. However, Yunmian was able to find a beautiful dress that fit her by herself, although that dress did not look high-end.
They were always used to pushing and fighting for a candy, a chicken leg, or a piece of fun chalk. Yunmian just watched them quietly from the side. When others asked her for the candy in her pocket, she did not hide it. Like a little fool, she would take it out and give it to others when they asked for it. If she didn't have any, she would not get angry or cry, but just sit there with her face in her hands, in a daze.
They would habitually please and fear the caregivers and observe the changes in their facial expressions. However, Yun Mian would refuse without hesitation when asked why she was disobedient or when asked to stretch out her hand to be beaten. Her silence was not the silence of fear and timidity, but the silence of calmness and openness.
Her every move and every word were completely different from theirs, and she was out of place in this welfare home.
It was a bit glaring, so everyone began to vaguely reject her.
Why is it that everyone has no parents and is an orphan, but you are the only one who is so ignorant of suffering?
But this rejection is meaningless to Yunmian.
She was so dull that she didn't even notice the strange and hateful looks.
She just likes to find a shaded area to sit down, hold the little kid with her chin in her arms, and wait patiently and obediently for her mother to come find her.
Yunmian had seen what a dead person would look like after becoming a ghost last night. She had been imagining in her mind what her mother would look like as a ghost all day, then she curved her eyes and smiled gently.
No matter what kind of ghost her mother becomes, she will recognize it the moment she sees it.
Even if I become a ghost, mom will definitely be the most beautiful and powerful ghost in the world!
At night, the little ghost jumped out of the window again and escaped. Yun Mian stood at the window in a daze for a while, then turned around and walked out.
Yu Anan lay on the upper bunk and called her quietly, asking her if she wanted to go to the bathroom.
Yunmian nodded to her and she quickly climbed down from the bed.
"I, I'll go with you." Yu Anan carefully grabbed her sleeve and said softly, "You went with me yesterday..."
Yun Mian blinked, looked down at her hand that was grabbing her sleeve, thought about it and decided not to refuse.
Then two small figures appeared in the silent corridor at night.
But Yunmian didn't find the female ghost in the toilet last night this time. She was a little disappointed. She waited for Yu Anan to finish using the toilet and then slowly walked towards the dormitory.
"Mianmian..." Yu Anan suddenly grabbed her hand with a trembling voice, his eyes fixed on a certain place with fear.
Yunmian looked over there and saw a woman in a red dress hanging under the eaves of the small building that housed the dean's office, swaying left and right in the evening breeze.
Yun Mian paused for a moment, then held Yu Anan's cheeks with both hands, forcing her to look back.
Yu Anan's breathing was disordered and her legs were shaking a little. There were tears in her eyes when she looked at Yun Mian, and she was obviously frightened by the sudden scene.
Yun Mian raised her hand and gently touched her head, then stood beside her to block her view, and led her towards the dormitory without saying a word.
"Will she... follow us?" Yu Anan suddenly stopped and tears fell down her face.
Yun Mian turned her head to look at the small building, and the female ghost in red who was hanging there had indeed disappeared.
The system was almost frightened to death. Seeing that Yunmian was still slow to react, it finally couldn't help but shout a warning: "Mianmian! She is right behind you!!"
As Yu Anan was trying to hold back her sobs, a familiar cold air fell on Yun Mian's neck, followed by ice-cold fingers that slowly touched the back of her delicate neck, as if a gentle squeeze could easily strangle her throat.
Yu Anan sobbed and stood stiffly there, not daring to move. Only the hand that was held by Yunmian was tightly clenched around her hand. The child's sharp nails even dug into Yunmian's delicate flesh.
"..." Yun Mian turned around without any taboos and faced the female ghost with a horrifying face. He stared at her fearlessly with his clear black and white eyes.
The female ghost felt a little frustrated that she had changed her way of appearance but still failed to scare the little boy. She glanced at Yu Anan who was trembling with his back to her beside Yunmian, and gently poked Yunmian's fleshless cheek with her black and red nails.
"Kid, why don't you call me sister today?" She leaned closer and asked. Her pair of dark, bleeding eyes looked somewhat similar to Yunmian's.
Yunmian tilted her head back, stood firmly, hid Yu Anan behind her, and then obediently called her sister.
The child's voice was soft, and Yunmian didn't have much emotion, so her flat tone sounded a little silly and cute.
A smile flashed across the ghost's face. She took back her hand that was poking the child and said to her faintly, "Did you come to see me just now?"
Anyway, she had never seen anyone who dared to run to the toilet again the next day after being scared by her. Yunmian was the first one, and the child next to Yunmian who smelled particularly sweet and delicious could barely be counted as half a person.
After the little fool in front of her really nodded, the female ghost asked her in surprise: "What do you want me to do?"
Isn’t looking for ghosts the same as looking for death?
It turns out that although this little guy looks stupid and silly, he is actually not afraid of death?
Yunmian did not answer immediately, and Yu Anan finally recovered from the communication between the man and the ghost. She still did not dare to look back, but she was able to muster up the courage to gently hook Yunmian's fingers, and lean back against Yunmian, trying to give each other the courage to resist fear.
Seeing the two children hooking their fingers together, the female ghost's expression became even more playful. She was actually very familiar with Yu Anan, and sometimes she would deliberately get closer to scare her, but every time Yu Anan would just hide and curl up and cry. This was the first time she was so brave.
Just as she was thinking about it, the little guy in front of her became more bold and reached out to grab her bloody skirt, motioning her to squat down a little.
Perhaps she was a little curious about this new little guy. After thinking about it, the female ghost actually squatted down, keeping her eyes level with the little guy.
"Sister~" The little girl was particularly well-behaved when she called out softly: "How do ghosts eat? What do they eat?"
The female ghost didn't expect that she had come here specifically for this. Thinking about what she had seen, she asked with interest, "You know it so clearly, could it be that you want to raise that little ghost?"
The little devil she was talking about was the one that Yunmian held as a rag doll.
I thought my guess was correct, but the little girl shook her head slowly and said softly, "It's not this, it's my mother~"
When she talked about her mother, her slowness seemed to be reduced a little, and her eyes were brighter like stars.
With some anticipation, Yunmian repeated earnestly: "Mom died and turned into a ghost. Mianmian wants to take care of her."
Female ghost: “……?”
Yu Anan: “…”
Before the ghost girl could react to these words, Yu Anan suddenly turned around, closed her eyes and ignored the ghost girl, and whispered to Yun Mian: "Mian Mian... if your mother becomes a ghost, will she still recognize you?"
She doesn't have a mother, but she feels that her mother and father are not particularly good people. What if she becomes even scarier after becoming a ghost?
The female ghost came back to her senses, but her tone became much more serious: "Little guy, do you know what will happen if you raise a ghost?"
She herself was clearly a fierce ghost, but now she strongly disagreed with Yun Mian's idea: "If your mother really turns into a ghost, you'd better stay as far away from her as possible. You are already full of negative energy. If you raise another ghost, you will die within a month!"
The reason why she wanted to hunt Yunmian last night was that she saw that Yunmian was full of negative energy and estimated that she would not live for a few more days. This kind of child is weak in body, and the bad luck and negative energy gathered together, making it easier for Yunmian to see her existence.
Today she had given up on treating Yunmian as a snack, but who knew that this little guy would seek death by wanting to raise an adult ghost!
Even if that was her mother...
"Will I become a ghost after I die?" Yun Mian ignored her harsh words and asked softly with her fair little face raised, "Will I be like mom after I die?"
There was actually a hint of expectation amidst the doubts.
Female ghost: “…”
Her answer was to disperse her own ghost domain directly, send the fearless little brat back to the dormitory door, and disappear in an instant.
After the two children approached the dormitory, the scarlet figure of the female ghost appeared in the corridor again.
She gazed at the dormitory where Yunmian was, sneering silently.
It’s not that easy to become a ghost after death.
If it were really that simple, the world would have been in chaos long ago. How could she have the chance to go to the orphanage every day to scare the children?
There's another chapter coming up.
