Chapter 45 Chapter 45

"What?" Zhuang Shu's tone was obviously a little bit raised.

Wu Xiang fell silent again. After a long time, he said, "He is from the Sports College. I am not familiar with him."

"Oh! So."

Zhuang Shu smiled again, and Xi Bai heard the sound of a hand patting his shoulder.

"Don't be nervous. Xi Bai and I are very familiar with each other. Gu Chi is his roommate. I just asked casually."

"By the way, you don't know what I do yet, right?"

"I am a celestial master. Look, this is the compass in my house..."

The recording ended here. Xi Bai sat there in a daze for a while.

He turned around and wanted to ask something, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything.

Zhuang Suan helped to hand the phone back.

Zhuang Shu said succinctly, "I tried it with a compass."

"What was the result?" Zhuang Suan asked more anxiously than Xi Bai.

Zhuang Shu shrugged, "No response."

Although it was a reassuring answer, Xi Bai's mood was not much more relaxed than before.

Gu Chi and Wu Xiang should have known each other for a long time, and they obviously didn't get along, but the two of them kept playing the role of strangers.

What else is hidden behind this?

"I'm just curious." Zhuang Shu saw Xi Bai's expression wavering, and he was obviously uneasy, so he comforted him, "Anyway, you can hear Gu Chi's thoughts, so you don't have to worry about him making any unusual moves."

"Besides, like I said, even if he really wanted to do something to you, he should have had plenty of opportunities long ago."

Xi Bai's eyes flickered slightly, and he blinked slowly.

"Hmm."

Seeing Xi Bai's expression gradually softening, Zhuang Shu smiled again: "Besides, in my opinion, a love between a human and a ghost - of course, it doesn't mean that Gu Chi must be the one - is not something unacceptable." Xi Bai

was slightly stunned, and looked at Zhuang Shu in disbelief.

The Zhuang family is a family of heavenly masters. Shouldn't they be more eager to kill ghosts than ordinary people? Why...

"Who said that? The marriage of our Zhuang family's ancestor is a ghost." Zhuang Shu smiled and directly revealed a shocking piece of gossip.

He briefly told the two young people who were stunned with their eyes wide open about the romantic history of the Zhuang family's ancestor, and finally slowly summarized it.

"Since he is a heavenly master, he eats the food of the underworld, and naturally has more opportunities to come into contact with ghosts and gods than ordinary people."

In this case, the probability of developing different feelings with ghosts is also greater than that of ordinary people.

"Ghosts can be divided into good ghosts and bad ghosts." Zhuang Shu said to Xi Bai, "You should have come into contact with quite a few ghosts, so you should understand this."

Xi Bai nodded. Since he could hear the inner voices of ghosts, he realized that the world of ghosts is the same as that of humans. There are good people and bad people, and there are bad ghosts, so there are naturally good ghosts.

Some ghosts will help students find lost things in school, but the ones who lost the things may be "friends" who are jealous of the owner's achievements.

Some ghosts accidentally scare passers-by, but in fact they are just childish and want to find a playmate.

There are countless masks in the human world, and the same is true for the ghost world.

"Instead of focusing on the identity of the ghost, it is better to concentrate on judging whether the 'he' in front of you is a guy worthy of your trust," Zhuang Shu smiled and said, "I dare not say how powerful I am, but I have seen many more examples than you."

"Being with the wrong person may be more terrifying than encountering a ghost."

Until the end of the class, on the way back to the dormitory.

Xi Bai did not say anything else.

At the entrance of the teaching building, Zhuang Suan looked at Xi Bai's back as he walked forward in a daze, and did not even realize that he had already opened up a long distance from him.

He wanted to step forward to hold the person and comfort him, but Zhuang Shu reached out and grabbed his ear.

"Hey, brother, it hurts!!"

Zhuang Suan looked at his brother dissatisfiedly.

"Brother, what are you doing!"

"I was just about to ask you what you're doing." Zhuang Shu tapped his brother's forehead, "What are you going to say to Xibai?"

Zhuang said, "I! I..."

He really didn't know what to say to Xibai.

"I've just said what I should say." Zhuang Shu let go of his brother's ear and said, "Let Xibai figure out the rest by himself."

Regardless of the outcome of his relationship with Gu Chi, Xibai must get over this hurdle in his heart.

Otherwise, even if he really gets together with Gu Chi, it will always be a thorn in his heart.

Xibai walked back on the school road with his head down, his eyes following the scattered stones on the ground.

Until he saw a pair of long legs standing still.

Xibai's line of sight slowly moved upwards.

He saw the man who had troubled him the whole morning, standing in front of the door downstairs of their dormitory.

Gu Chi should have been looking at him long before he raised his head.

Xi Bai said, "Why did you come downstairs?"

"To get takeout." Gu Chi raised the bag in his hand a little, "Your favorite local dishes."

"Oh." Xi Bai nodded. "

And more." Gu Chi took two steps forward and walked to Xi Bai's side.

The faint scent of pine wood came, and Xibai's brain, which had been in a mess all morning, seemed to be a little clearer at this moment.

When he raised his head, he saw Gu Chi looking at him with a faint smile on his lips.

"I didn't see you all morning, so I waited here after getting the takeout."

Xi Bai heard Gu Chi say.

…

Walking up the stairs, Xibai tripped for the fifth time.

Gu Chi reached out and grabbed him, protecting him from falling forward.

But this time, the hand on his shoulder did not let go after steadying him like it did the previous times.

Xibai stared at the hand for a while, but still did not react.

He raised his head.

"I'm afraid you'll fall again."

Gu Chi's eyes were still clear, so clear that people couldn't help but wonder if he didn't have any romantic thoughts.

"It might be safer to take you up like this."

"It's okay." Xi Bai shook his head and insisted on struggling out of Gu Chi's arms.

He rubbed his face and said, "I'm sober now."

Gu Chi looked at Xi Bai kneading himself into a ball and flattened shape, rubbing his fingertips with his hands hanging at his sides.

He hummed, "Okay, then you be careful."

All the way back to the dormitory, Xi Bai didn't trip again.

Gu Chi stood by the table, taking out the takeaway and unpacking it, while asking Xi Bai.

"Are there any other lectures this afternoon?"

This guy clearly knew his schedule well... Xibai felt that Gu Chi was asking knowingly, but still said: "No, the exams are over, and the last lecture is tomorrow."

"Then let's take a nap after dinner. I think you don't seem to be very energetic. Are you too tired?"

Gu Chi asked while moving closer, his voice full of concern.

"Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Comfortable... Xibai once again thought of what Gu Chi said last night.

Last night, he was blocked in the corner of the bathroom by Gu Chi, and the boy's hot breath hit his neck more and more quickly.

Gu Chi kept expressing his feelings.

"Xibai, it feels so good..."

Xibai's face became hot, and as his heart beat faster, he reached out and pressed Gu Chi's head and pushed it out a little.

Too close!

Gu Chi was stunned.

He was still looking at Xi Bai, but it was obvious that his eyes and eyebrows drooped a little.

It was this slight change in expression that turned Gu Chi from a smiling big dog into a wronged big dog.

"No, I'm not uncomfortable."

Xi Bai said subconsciously because of his reaction.

When he came to his senses, his palm had already rubbed Gu Chi's head a few times.

Fluffy.

The touch was better than he imagined.
