Chapter 60: Let Me Prepare Myself Mentally



"So, why do we come to the sports equipment room late at night when it's quiet..."

Wu Yue stood shivering in the wind at the entrance of the narrow, cold corridor.

“Our direct descendants of the Yan family possess an ability to see what happened to ghosts before they were alive. I also want you to be a spectator.” Yan Chiyu pulled Wu Yue’s wrist and stepped into the darkness.

The girl pulled the boy back to where the moonlight was falling. She stamped her feet, trying to warm her chilly body.

Then, he took a deep breath: "Wait, let me mentally prepare myself."

"good."

A gust of wind blew by, carrying a chilly edge, and even the boy's softened face was tinged with a touch of snow.

His casual glance fell on the girl's hand clenching her sleeve, and he subtly curled the corner of his mouth, a smile that vanished in an instant.

Five minutes have passed...

Ten minutes have passed...

Yan Chiyu's straight back almost buckled several times, causing him to lose his posture.

[Note that this is not a still image.]

[I could hear the witch god's heart pounding, haha!]

[Hahaha, he's only handsome for ten minutes!]

I think the Witch God is acting normally; I really don't know what some of the comments are criticizing.

To face fear head-on takes courage. If you can't, that's understandable too, since everyone has weaknesses.

[Huh? Am I the only one who likes this kind of plot? Peaceful times, let's watch ghost stories together.]

[I want to get to know you, hahaha]

After a long while, the boy spoke coolly: "Your mental preparation is probably more than a hundred stories high."

Yan Chiyu's contempt was undisguised, but Wu Yue had no desire to argue with him. She took a breath, then slowly and deeply exhaled a long, stale air: "Let's go!"

Passing through the not-so-wide corridor, just a step away, a single thought can evoke two conflicting emotions.

Upon entering, Wu Yue hurriedly took out two luminous pearls and had Cuihua hold them up for illumination.

At least you won't be too scared in a place with light.

The deeper they went, the less Wu Yue dared to look around. Her body was tense as she obediently followed Yan Chiyu's side, clutching his sleeve tightly so she could grab his leg at any moment.

I bet five cents on a spicy snack that your thigh will eventually become my boyfriend.

[Your subject seconded this proposal]

[I also agree.]

If you can talk, then say more!

"How did your family member who reads ghost stories view things from their previous life?"

“If it’s a ghost that can be communicated with normally, I can see what happened to him before he died as long as I make contact with him. But if it’s someone like Sun Yingning, I need to use one of her things.”

The two stopped at the entrance of the equipment room.

Yan Chiyu stared at the black iron gate that led to the unknown and the terrifying. Unlike the person beside him who was trembling and whose hair stood on end, Yan Chiyu had a calm, composed and lazy demeanor. Even his voice sounded so nonchalant and elegant: "Only after Uncle Wu used both soft and hard tactics did the principal agree to take out that item related to Sun Yingning."

Wu Yue blinked: "What's the next step?"

Her mind was filled with all sorts of chaotic and terrifying images, and her legs were trembling so badly that she could barely stand.

"Be an audience member."

The rusty iron gate made a grating, creaking sound.

The darkness was like an abyss, as if a giant hand was forcefully pulling them into the torrent of sealed secrets.

Sun Yingning has good grades and is well-behaved; she's the kind of child adults always talk about.

At first, Qiu Liqi and Sun Yingning had a very good relationship. They were classmates and neighbors, so it was inevitable that they were closer than others.

After entering high school, Sun Yingning's personality became more and more cheerful. She liked to share with Qiu Liqi what she saw and heard every day, what her first idol was, and what love letters that suitors she didn't like secretly slipped to her.

They are two close friends who gradually integrated into each other's lives.
