Chapter 31



The room was dark, and Ning Gui's mind and eyes were full of Bo Chi, so at first, she didn't notice that there was someone on the bed.

It was not until the other party blatantly kissed Bo Chi that Ning Gui became furious. She immediately lowered her eyes and gritted her teeth and said, "Who are you? Who is your wife? Why did you sleep with Chi Chi? What did you do to her?!"

Yu Zhao leaned on the bed, supporting his black-haired head with one hand. His heart, which was always indifferent to outsiders, suddenly felt strong malice. He smiled deliberately and said, "I have slept in the same bed with her. Who do you think is my wife?"

Ning Gui's chest suddenly heaved, and his white teeth almost bit his lower lip until it bled.

She never imagined that in just a few days, the white moonlight in her heart, the man she had always longed for but could never reach and whom she could only approach as a best friend, was so easily seduced into bed by another woman!

If I had known this...

If she had known this, she shouldn't have hesitated and retreated. The correct solution would have been to give the girl the drug and push her down as soon as possible!

The more Ning Gui thought about it, the angrier she became. Especially after she had been through the gates of hell several times, she had despairedly discovered that she could not escape from this world. She could only be tortured by pain over and over again like a weak mouse being toyed with by a cat by the tail.

This made her, who was used to hiding her thoughts, feel regret and fear for the first time.

Knowing that he could not survive, Ning Gui had only one last wish.

She has been secretly in love with Bo Chi for many years, and she wants to confess her feelings to Bo Chi!

Even if she dies, she will leave a heavy mark in Bo Chi's heart, so that he will be awakened in the middle of the night and will be shrouded in her shadow for the rest of his life!

Now the appearance of Yu Zhao has aggravated Ning Gui's madness.

She couldn't stand this woman of unknown origin occupying her place, and she didn't have the extra energy to think about her background. She rushed into the room based on her inner thoughts, raised her hand to slap her, and screamed: "Get out! Get down! Don't touch her!"

Yu Zhao was too lazy to argue with the crazy woman, so he raised his hands to hold Bo Chi's waist and rolled with her on the bed.

Not only did he avoid Ning Gui's random attacks, but he also woke up from his sleep. He subconsciously rubbed Yu Zhao's neck and muttered, "Stop it, my waist hurts."

Ning Gui, who was standing by, suddenly froze when he heard this.

Yu Zhao hadn't expected that Bo Chi would act like a spoiled child with him. After he realized what was happening, the corners of his lips curled up. He couldn't stop feeling happy, so he pinched her face and said, "Open your eyes and look at who's in front of you."

Bo Chi couldn't fall asleep because of her pinching. He grabbed her fingers in a bad mood and forced his eyes open.

Ning Gui, who was standing in front of them, had a look of collapse on her face. The pain in her eyes and the tears that suddenly fell from her eyes successfully woke Bo Chi up instantly. He subconsciously straightened up and asked, "Ning Gui? Are you okay..."

She was about to say something caring when she suddenly remembered that Ning Gui deserved it. She swallowed the rest of her words and her expression became cold and distant: "Why did you come to see me?"

Ning Gui didn't go crazy like she did in front of Yu Zhao. When facing her secret crush, she was like a real girl, instinctively showing her most beautiful and fragile side: "Chi Chi, I couldn't find you after I woke up... Everyone else died in the room, I was so worried about you, so I mustered up the courage to come here..."

Bo Chi couldn't help feeling guilty and soft-hearted.

In such a dangerous place, a young girl actually dared to come out alone, just to find her...

"Take up your courage?" Seeing that Bo Chi was so easily shaken, Yu Zhao laughed in anger, resting his chin on the shoulder of the person in his arms, and whispered in her ear to sow discord: "You are so ruthless even torturing cats, are you afraid of the revenge of evil spirits?"

Ning Gui's expression suddenly changed. She raised her head and stared at Yu Zhao with great reaction. Her voice was a little hoarse for some reason: "Don't talk nonsense. I don't even dare to kill chickens and fish for food, so how could I torture and kill a kitten?"

She said it with such determination that even she seemed to believe it.

But she didn't notice that her voice was trembling slightly uncontrollably.

Bo Chi fell silent, and his eyes as he looked at Ning Gui gradually became clear and cold.

Yu Zhao's smile deepened behind her, and he said leisurely, "I'm not interested in wasting time talking to someone who's about to die. Chichi, let's go downstairs and eat."

"No!" Without waiting for Bo Chi to answer, Ning Gui raised her voice and interrupted him. She rushed to the bed with tears in her eyes and looked at Bo Chi with hope and expectation: "Chi Chi, I am your best friend. Why do you believe her and not me?"

"Don't go with her, we didn't even know her before!" Ning Gui tried to grab Bo Chi's hand, but after Bo Chi dodged her, she could only tightly grasp the quilt, with the veins on the back of her hand clearly visible: "Maybe she is an evil ghost in disguise, using a trick to confuse your five senses, just waiting to lure you to a deserted place, and then kill you!"

Bo Chi: “Uh…”

She turned her head to look at Yu Zhao and signaled with her eyes - Have you revealed your identity in front of Ning Gui?

Yu Zhao lazily hooked her long hair, twisting it in circles with his fingers, and said slowly: "You didn't say anything, so I kept it a secret. She should just be making nonsense guesses."

The thin wings are slightly relaxed.

She didn't want others to know that Yu Zhao was an evil ghost.

It may sound funny, but she really doesn't want others to fear and hate Yu Zhao or regard him as an alien.

She hopes that Yu Zhao can get rid of his past hatred and darkness, stand in the light again, and become a normal person again.

Yu Zhao didn't know what she was thinking, but he instinctively considered her position.

Before Bo Chi made his attitude clear, she would not expose herself and put Bo Chi in a passive situation.

The young couple were talking in a charade, and Ning Gui didn't understand what they were saying. She secretly hated Yu Zhao in her heart, but she also stayed with Bo Chi and refused to leave.

There was no choice, the meal still had to be eaten, and Bo Chi could only be sandwiched between the two people and walked towards the restaurant helplessly.

The table was still full of food. Bo Chi and Yu Zhao came here often to eat and considered themselves locals of the castle, so they naturally started to eat.

Ning Gui was very hungry, but because he was worried, he hesitated and did not dare to pick up any food.

She wanted to let Yu Zhao try the food first, but when she saw Bo Chi pick up the pan-fried bun first, she immediately grabbed his hand and whispered, "This castle is full of vengeful spirits. Aren't you afraid that the food is poisonous?"

Bo Chi was confused: "Why should I be afraid? I haven't done anything bad, why are they targeting me?"

She was simply thinking from the logic of 'the evil ghost only wants revenge', but when Ning Gui heard it, it had a different meaning, as if he was deliberately mocking her.

Ning Gui was shocked and doubtful, almost suspecting that Bo Chi already knew all her secrets.

But after calming down and thinking about it, she gave up the idea - Bo Chi didn't have the brains to do it and it was impossible for him to discover it.

Feeling settled, Ning Gui withdrew her hand and glanced at Yu Zhao covertly. Seeing that he slowly finished the soup dumplings that Bo Chi had given her and was still alive and well, she immediately grabbed the chopsticks impatiently and stuffed everything she saw into her mouth, looking like a starving ghost reincarnated.

After eating continuously until he choked, Ning Guimeng drank a large glass of soy milk.

Just when she was feeling satisfied, she suddenly frowned and coughed continuously as if her throat was uncomfortable.

Bo Chi gave her a strange look and asked casually, "What's wrong with you?"

Ning Gui had a strange expression on her face. She coughed for a long time and had to scratch her throat with her hands. She frowned and said, "It's itchy... My throat is itchy... It feels like there's a feather stuck in it."

She vomited as she spoke, and soon vomited out everything she had eaten.

And this was not the end. Her face was filled with pain and she continued to pick her throat as if she could not stop. She even vomited bile, but she still persevered.

She looked a little scary. Bo Chi leaned into Yu Zhao's arms with a little fear, holding the mushroom bun in both hands and chewing it, while staring at Ning Gui intently.

Yu Zhao's mind wandered, and he couldn't help but lower his head and ask her: "Looking at such a disgusting scene, can you still eat?"

Bo Chi was bewildered: "What does her disgust have to do with the mushroom bun? The food is innocent!"

Yu Zhao laughed in silence, thought about it, picked up a pancake, held the thin wings in his arms, and ate while watching the show.

Ning Gui's face looked ugly as he vomited, and he even vomited blood.

After struggling for a while, she finally spit out the "feather" in her throat. Upon closer inspection, it was completely snow-white, without any other colors, soft and short, which made people involuntarily think of the elegant and light white cat they had seen before.

Bo Chi and Yu Zhao looked at each other and understood what was going on.

Ning Gui also came to his senses and collapsed, unable to bear it any longer: "Get out! You beasts, lowly beasts! If I hadn't picked you up, you would have starved to death!"

"I was just in a bad mood at that time... Haven't I been nice enough to you at other times? Which of the food and drinks you ate was not given by me? You are a bunch of ungrateful and heartless dogs. Come out if you have the guts!"

Ning Gui roared and cursed, sometimes playing the emotional card and sometimes throwing things in anger.

Bo Chi noticed something was wrong and asked Yu Zhao, "Is she crazy?"

Yu Zhao said coldly: "Anyone who can vent his emotions by abusing animals must have gone crazy a long time ago."

Bo Chi agreed with this and wiped his hands, saying, "Since the white cat wants to slowly torture Ning Gui, let's not interfere in their affairs and leave first."

Yu Zhao had long wanted to kick Ning Gui out and leave himself and his wife alone. Hearing this, he nodded happily and walked out of the restaurant holding Bo Chi's hand.

Seeing the beautiful and seductive female ghost smiling and leading her to the room upstairs, Bo Chi secretly rubbed his waist, shuddered, and said decisively: "The weather is so good, let's go to the garden to enjoy the flowers!"

Yu Zhao was stunned. He looked at the gloomy sky, thought about the heads swaying in the wind in the garden, and finally nodded with a strange expression.

Although my wife's interests are a bit strange...

But if she doesn’t pamper her own wife, who else can she pamper?

Passing through the gate, the two of them came into the garden.

After the evil ghost successfully took revenge, his obsession dissipated and his negative energy also disappeared.

So at this time there was no "human head flower" in the garden, only a piece of black soil.

Bo Chi looked around for a long time, and the farming blood in the flower-growing family's bones was awakened. He thought: "It would be a waste if this piece of land is not used. Why don't we grow something? The restaurant has a buffet, so we don't need to grow vegetables. So we can grow some flowers and plants. If we can leave the castle in the future, we can sell these things. What do you think?"

Yu Zhao naturally had no objection, and added: "I have investigated, if you want to leave the castle, you must get the consent of all the ghosts in the castle. Now all the other evil ghosts have dissipated, only the white cat is left. When she succeeds in her revenge, I can take you out."

"Revenge succeeded..." Bo Chi murmured, and sighed: "By that time, Ning Gui will be dead, right?"

Yu Zhao raised his eyebrows, his smile gradually becoming dangerous: "Why, are you heartbroken? Can't bear to let go?"

Bo Chi raised his little fist and punched her lightly as if he was acting like a spoiled child: "I just feel a little emotional. After all, Ning Gui is still young. She has always been gentle and weak when she is out there, and there are many people who have a crush on her..."

"You can only know a person's face but not his heart." Yu Zhao had seen many people who spoke sweet words but had sharp tongues. He said coldly, "If someone like her keeps hiding until she gets married and has children, who knows how many innocent and pitiful animals will die tragically at her hands."

Bo Chi nodded silently, and suddenly an inspiration flashed in his mind, and he couldn't help asking: "Do you understand human nature very well?"

Yu Zhao chuckled: "I can't say I know a lot, but at least I know more than a little sister like you who is still in school."

Bo Chi snorted, "Then let me ask you, if there are two good friends who have a very good relationship, and suddenly they fall out at graduation, and one of them even says that she never considered the other a best friend, then, then... did the other one do something wrong?"

Yu Zhao looked down at her.

Bo Chi tried hard to blink, holding back the bitterness in his eyes, and asked fiercely: "Why are you looking at me?"

Yu Zhao hesitated and said cautiously: "I feel like you... are a little aggrieved."

"No!" Bo Chi denied it outright, and repeated it again as if to convince himself: "No, I don't have any good friends. I only have a mortal enemy who I hate the moment I see him. Why should I feel wronged?"

Yu Zhao noticed that she was in a low mood, raised his hand to rub her head, and changed the topic to the question: "How was the relationship between the pair of friends you mentioned before graduation?"

"Very good." Bo Chi said sullenly, "They have known each other since they were young. They can be considered childhood sweethearts. When they were in elementary school, I - cough, let's call them B and Y. B has always liked to stick to Y. She would go over to her to do homework with her every day, secretly put breakfast and snacks into her desk, and when she found out that Y was being abused, she asked her parents to send her father to jail immediately."

"B believes that she is absolutely devoted to Y. She has always been a person who gets excited for only a few minutes, but this is the first time she wants to be good friends with someone for a long time." Bo Chi couldn't help but pinch Yu Zhao as he spoke. As Yu Zhao's brows twitched slightly, he said viciously, "But Y has always been lukewarm towards her and only silently took care of B. B thought Y was not good at expressing herself and always asked for more. When she planned to follow the trend and have a sweet relationship after graduation, she even excitedly dragged her to see handsome guys."

"That was their first quarrel." Bo Chi lost his momentum and whispered, "Y said something very hurtful. B was upset and slammed the door and left. After that, she kept targeting Y in a childish way. Y refused to give in and retaliated against B, causing all of B's ​​friends to get married and have children, but she is still a lonely single dog..."

"Then they started to argue with each other. They regarded each other as mortal enemies. Whenever they met, they would have blank expressions on their faces. Gatherings with the two of them were as cold as a pool of stagnant water. More and more people knew that they didn't get along, and began to consciously avoid them being present at the same time." Bo Chi said sadly, "But only B and B's family knew that she had never given up on finding out the reason for the fallout. In order to reconcile them, bah, to make peace, B's brother even arranged for them to get in the same car on the wedding day. Unfortunately, an accident happened, and B was unable to ask the questions she had prepared countless times."

Yu Zhao touched Bo Chi's head heavily and said, "My condolences."

Bo Chi: "...He's not dead yet!"

Yu Zhao was silent for two seconds, then put his hand down as if nothing had happened, and said with a light cough: "I know, the reason why Y and B fell out must be because..."

Bo Chi tilted his head and looked at her, the seriousness in his eyes could not be ignored.

Yu Zhao felt inexplicably unhappy, and somehow felt that Bo Chi cared too much about Y in the story.

This made her swallow her guess that 'Y might have a crush on B', and instead said seriously: "It must be because she is ugly that she is mentally deformed. She mistakenly thinks that B is taking her to see handsome guys to mock her. In addition, she was abused by her family when she was a child, and B gave her breakfast out of pity..."

"Wait, wait!" Bo Chi was dumbfounded. He grabbed Yu Zhao's arm in panic and tried his best to explain: "B didn't mean to give alms. Y was skinny and small at that time. She often put her hand on her stomach. B was afraid that she would get sick, so he sent her breakfast. In order to prevent her from misunderstanding, B sent it secretly. She should not know it was B."

Yu Zhao asked calmly: "Who did she have the best relationship with at that time?"

Bo Chi was stunned and said hesitantly: "It should be B."

Yu Zhao raised his eyebrows: "Then who do you think was the first person she thought of when she found breakfast? Or who among so many people would be kind enough to bring her breakfast?"

Bo Chi was stunned.

She thought the secret had been kept well hidden.

But seeing how Yu Zhao reacted immediately... Could it be that the young Yu Zhao back then had already discovered the truth?

"...In summary, Y is a narrow-minded, extremely inferior, rich-hating, and insidious person." Seeing Bo Chi's stunned face, Yu Zhao became even more calm and said, "This kind of person is not suitable for close friendship, nor is she worthy of attention. I think you should stop caring about her and focus on the people around you instead."

Having said this, Yu Zhao raised his head slightly, his whole body filled with hints of reserve.

Bo Chi stared at her blankly for a long time, then turned his head and stepped on the black soil in silence.

Yu Zhao was puzzled. He stretched out his hand to turn her face over and forced her to look directly at him: "Are you unhappy?"

Bo Chi nodded silently, pulled her hand down, and said seriously: "I don't think Y is that kind of person. Even if it's you... you can't slander her like this."

Yu Zhao was so angry that he laughed. He gritted his teeth and asked, "Who is Y?"

Bo Chi pursed his lips and muttered, "You won't believe it even if I tell you, so I won't tell you!"

She pushed Yu Zhao away and walked back sullenly.

After taking two steps, she felt something tight around her waist. Yu Zhao picked her up by the waist and walked into the house.

Bo Chi was startled, and he put his arms around Yu Zhao's neck, and asked in a daze, "What are you doing?"

Yu Zhao looked down at her and smiled sinisterly: "Fuck you."

**

Bo Chi was deeply aware of what it meant to speak ill of others.

Because of a Y, she was interrogated by Yu Zhao on the bed for a long time. Finally, seeing that she was sobbing and unable to speak, Yu Zhao let her go with a cold face and began to do it while persistently emphasizing sovereignty.

After a whole day of trouble, Bo Chi was completely exhausted. His legs were shaking and he couldn't walk. He had to be carried to the restaurant for dinner by Yu Zhao, who had a sour face on his face.

Fortunately, Ning Gui was not in the restaurant, allowing Bo Chi to retain a bit of face.

The delicious food was right in front of him. Even though Yu Zhao beside him looked suspicious, Bo Chi didn't want to pay attention to her. All he wanted was to eat.

However, not only did her waist and legs feel sore, she even had difficulty lifting her arms. She picked up a bunch of dishes with trembling hands using the chopsticks, but when she put the dishes back in the bowl, only a few seeds were left.

She stared at the bowl in a daze. After a moment of silence, she raised her head with tears in her eyes and said in a wronged and coquettish voice, "A Zhao..."

Yu Zhao didn't want to pay attention to her.

Yu Zhao wanted to teach her a lesson.

Yu Zhao had a cold face.

Yu Zhao...picked up the chopsticks.

The small bowl was filled with a lot of Bo Chi's favorite dishes. She immediately smiled and became happy again.

When she smiled, Yu Zhao's anger subsided and he could only resign himself to watching from the side. Whenever Bo Chi stared at a dish for a few more seconds, she would quickly serve it to her.

After dinner, Yu Zhao put down his chopsticks and carried Bo Chi back upstairs again.

As soon as Bo Chi touched the bed, he quickly got under the quilt, without even sticking his head out, and pretended to be asleep with a loud snore.

Yu Zhao saw through her thoughts and said leisurely, "Bury your face in the quilt. Aren't you afraid of suddenly seeing a ghost face in the dark?"

Bo Chi was successfully frightened by her. He jumped up from the bed and said angrily, "How dare you!"

Yu Zhao climbed onto the bed and stretched out his arms to her: "Come into my arms, and I won't scare you."

Bo Chi stood there hesitantly.

Seeing this, Yu Zhao was helpless: "I won't bother you tonight. I'll just hold you and rest."

Bo Chi immediately pounced forward without any worries.

That night, the two of them were in love with each other, but Ning Gui collapsed repeatedly in pain.

The day before, she was still able to hold on and refused to admit what she had done, but today, before dawn, she was kneeling in the garden with messy hair, digging something desperately with her hands.

Bo Chi got up in the morning and stood by the window to look at the scenery. He looked down and saw that her hands were so digging that they looked like a human. He couldn't help but wonder, "What is she digging?"

Yu Zhao floated behind her, put his arms around the girl's waist, tilted his head to listen for a while, and said lazily: "Digging up the bones of those animals. Every time Ning Gui tortured an animal, he would let it breathe, then bury it in the soil and enjoy the animals' final struggle."

Bo Chi let out a long breath, looked at Ning Gui with disgust, and asked in confusion: "She buried it in reality, right? Now she is in the castle, what bones is she digging for?"

"It was the White Cat who told her that its bones were buried somewhere under the castle. As long as Ning Gui could dig them out, he would let her live."

Bo Chi was silent for a moment, and then whispered, "If this is a part of revenge, why are there corpses in the castle? Is Bai Mao imitating Ning Gui's previous behavior, leaving her with a last bit of hope, and then cruelly destroying it?"

Yu Zhao lowered his head, kissed the tip of Bo Chi's ear, and chuckled, "Smart."

Bo Chi curled the corners of his lips and quickly sighed, "Since it has come to the stage of burying the body, Ning Gui won't live long."

Yu Zhao hummed, without any empathy for witnessing the death of a life, and said happily: "When she dies, I can take you out. Where do you want to get married?"

Bo Chi was still immersed in complicated emotions, and was stunned when he heard this: "Ah?"

The author has something to say: Bo Chi: What are you good at?

Yu Zhao: I scold myself.jpg
