One week later.
Zeng Jingxue sat in front of her dressing table in her room, observing in front of a large mirror whether the dark circles under her eyes that had disappeared had returned, while applying expensive cosmetics to the edges of her eyes to remove them.
These past few days, she has been resting at home, sleeping until she naturally wakes up every day, and is full of energy.
The hospital's test results came back, and the chief physician said that she was very healthy and had no problems.
Zeng Jingxue was relieved.
At school, Zeng Jingxue still keeps in touch with her roommates every day.
Chen Li said that since the incident that night, the school has stopped being haunted, and the girls' dormitory has returned to normal. Students are doing what they used to do, and the eerie screams and knocking at night are gone!
The counselor said the school had hired an expert and the matter was resolved.
The school is so clean now!
On the phone, Chen Li said happily and asked Zeng Jingxue when she would return to school, saying she missed her.
Zeng Jingxue said, "Now that the school isn't haunted anymore, she plans to go back tomorrow."
"By the way, I've been bored at home these past few days, so I found an apartment online. I plan to move out after I go back to school!"
The house is located on the student street, very close to the school, and it even has a yard and a balcony. It's very beautiful!
The rent isn't expensive either, only a little over 2000 a month.
Chen Li: "Then I'll move out and live with you? Even though it's not haunted anymore, I'm still a little scared. I'll move out so we can live together and I can help you split the rent."
Zeng Jingxue readily agreed.
In fact, even if Chen Li didn't plan to move out, Zeng Jingxue would have encouraged Chen Liting to move out and live with her. Because of this incident, Zeng Jingxue also developed a psychological trauma and was afraid to live alone off-campus for a while.
She would feel much more at ease if the two of them lived together, and there would be someone to look after them!
...
The following morning.
Zeng Jingxue was walking back to her dormitory from home with a cute backpack when suddenly her eyes lit up and she saw a familiar figure ahead.
Zeng Jingxue quickly caught up with him.
"Zhang Yuan!"
Zhang Yuangang had just finished two classes and was walking back when he heard someone calling him from behind. He turned around in confusion and saw Zeng Xiaohua running towards him.
He couldn't help but frown slightly.
This girl has ruined his reputation, and now all the first-year students think she's Zeng Jingxue's boyfriend! It's outrageous! But in reality, the two of them have only met a few times during martial arts training and have never interacted at all.
Zhang Yuan didn't even have Zeng Jingxue's phone number!
After thinking it over, Zhang Yuan concluded that it might be retaliation for refusing to teach this girl martial arts at the Martial Arts Association.
Therefore, Zhang Yuan frowns whenever he sees Zeng Jingxue, fearing that this school beauty will do something outrageous again!
After Zeng Jingxue caught up, she stood next to Zhang Yuan, panting heavily. Fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, and her long, smooth hair was piled up behind her head, making her delicate, fair oval face even more beautiful.
Zhang Yuan smelled a faint, pleasant fragrance emanating from Zeng Jingxue, and turned his head away from looking at the school beauty's pretty face.
"Zhang Yuan!"
Zeng Jingxue paused, lowered her head, blushed, and said softly, "Um, it was my mistake to lie and say you were my boyfriend. I'll explain it to everyone."
"Um, I'm sorry!"
Because Zhang Yuan had saved her, Zeng Jingxue felt guilty and took the initiative to apologize to Zhang Yuan, explaining the reason.
After listening, Zhang Yuan gave Zeng Jingxue a cold look and said, "No need for an apology. If there's nothing else, I'll be leaving."
"Hey, wait a minute!"
"I want to ask you something."
Zhang Yuan stopped in his tracks.
\"What's up?\"
His tone was somewhat impatient, and he didn't even look at Zeng Jingxue, which made Zeng Jingxue feel slightly disappointed.
"Last Thursday night, did you save me from the rooftop?"
Zeng Jingxue asked.
Zhang Yuan was surprised that Zeng Jingxue would suddenly ask this question, and he didn't know how to answer it for a moment.
If you directly answer that he rescued her, it would expose that he climbed into the girls' dormitory building in the middle of the night and went up to the rooftop.
It seems she still remembers some of what happened that night!
Just then, a loud shout attracted the attention of Zhang Yuan and his classmates.
"Zhang Yuan!"
Someone is calling Zhang Yuan.
Then, a tall, somewhat slender girl with a ponytail ran over. She was Chen Yajing, Zhang Yuan's teaching assistant.
"Zhang Yuan, you've got some nerve! Now you're not even answering the teaching assistant's calls or replying to her messages!"
Chen Yajing pursed her lips and pretended to be angry.
Zhang Yuan gave an awkward smile: "I pretended to be enthusiastic and greeted her with 'Hello, senior!'"
After Chen Yajing arrived, she glanced at Zeng Jingxue, who was equally beautiful, then leaned close to Zhang Yuan and said with a sly look, "Your girlfriend? She's really pretty!"
Zhang Yuan quickly denied it: "No!"
Zeng Jingxue smiled awkwardly and consciously distanced herself from Zhang Yuan.
"Hey, tell me, did you do that thing that night?"
"What is it?"
Zhang Yuan pretended to be confused even though he knew the truth.
"Stop pretending, it was last Thursday night!"
Did you deal with that evil spirit?
Chen Yajing looked around and asked mysteriously.
At the same time, suppress the burning desire for gossip in your heart.
Zeng Jingxue listened intently, for Chen Yajing wanted to ask exactly what she wanted to know!
Zhang Yuan first nodded instinctively, then, realizing something was wrong, immediately shook his head: "Senior, it wasn't me, how could it be me!"
Chen Yajing: "Nonsense!"
My aunt told me that your family has been doing this for generations, and that you stayed outside the girls' dormitory building number 17 all night that night!
Zhang Yuan: "That doesn't prove anything."
Senior, what era are we living in? We need to believe in science. How could there be ghosts in this world?
Hearing Zhang Yuan say this, Chen Yajing also felt that there was some truth to it.
How could there possibly be ghosts in this world!
Having received more than a decade of materialistic education, Chen Yajing had never really believed in ghosts and gods. It was only because the ghost story at the school had become so big and everyone was talking about it that Chen Yajing began to have doubts.
However, Chen Yajing quickly rejected her own judgment.
"Pah! No, no, Zhang Yuan, you're lying to me!"
"I checked the security footage. That night you clearly climbed over the wall and went up to the second floor of Girls' Dormitory Building No. 17..."
After that, the school was never haunted again!
You still say you didn't do it!
Upon hearing this, Zhang Yuan was startled and quickly made a shushing gesture!
He gestured to Senior Chen to stop speaking so loudly!
Just kidding! Climbing over the wall into the girls' dormitory in the middle of the night—if other students and teachers heard that, they'd probably think Zhang Yuan was a pervert and send him to the police station!
Zeng Jingxue was shocked when she heard what her senior said.
That night, Zhang Yuan actually climbed over the wall and entered the No. 17 girls' dormitory building!
This confirmed her suspicions even more—it really was him who saved me!
The scenes I remember seem to be real!
This Zhang Yuan can actually exorcise ghosts?!
As if she had discovered some major secret, Zeng, the school beauty, stared at Zhang Yuan from head to toe with an incredulous look!
Seeing that Zhang Yuan still refused to admit it, the senior student Chen Yajing, who was teaching the class, simply grabbed Zhang Yuan's arm and wouldn't let go, shaking it from side to side, and pleaded in a soft, sweet voice: "Hey, junior, just tell me, how did you deal with that ghost back then?"
And what does that ghost look like? Is it pretty? Is it scary?
I promise I won't tell anyone else!
"By the way, do you know magic? Like, the kind in anime and TV shows where you kill evil spirits with a couple of 'whoosh' sounds?!"
At this moment, the senior student's eyes lit up. Like a child, she grabbed Zhang Yuan's hand and insisted on hearing Zhang Yuan tell the details of how he subdued the evil spirit that night.
Zhang Yuan had a terrible headache!
Finally, having no other option, he replied perfunctorily, "That's right, I chased away that evil spirit!"
Chen Yajing's eyes lit up, a "I knew it was you" look on her face, and she continued, "What did that ghost look like? Was it a male or female ghost?"
Zhang Yuan: "Long hair, deathly pale, like this," Zhang Yuan glared and stuck out his tongue, deliberately making a face to scare Chen Yajing.
Chen Yajing jumped back in fright, but felt even more excited, so she asked again, "How did you scare the ghost away? Even that fat Taoist priest the school hired before couldn't do anything about it!"
Zhang Yuan glanced helplessly at Chen Yajing again, thinking to himself that this senior was not only gossipy, but also knew quite a lot!
"I just did that, two quick 'zzzz' sounds, and the ghost ran away!"
As Zhang Yuan spoke, he made a silly, over-the-top gesture like Ultraman releasing a beam of light!
It made Chen Yajing and Zeng Jingxue laugh.
"Ugh, you're so annoying! That can't be true!"
...
Zeng Jingxue and Chen Yajing are both stunning beauties at school. At this moment, they are standing under a tree by the roadside at school, chatting and laughing in front of a boy. Their relationship seems to be quite special, which has attracted the attention of many students passing by!
Many boys looked on with envy, including some who knew Zeng Jingxue and Chen Yajing.
They were whispering among themselves.
"Isn't that boy Zeng's boyfriend?"
How could he be so intimate with another girl in front of his girlfriend?
What is the relationship between these three people?
Could it be a love triangle?!
...
Zeng Jingxue was easily embarrassed. Hearing the whispers and pointing fingers from her classmates on the street, she blushed and said, "I have to go now, seniors, you guys chat," and then slunk away.
Chen Yajing also noticed the unfriendly gossip from her classmates and said, "Junior Zhang Yuan, let's stop here for today. We can find a place where no one will bother us another day, and you can talk to me again."
Oh, and teach me some magic while you're at it. Maybe I'm a genius!
Ha ha. "
Chen Yajing said she was very interested in exorcising ghosts.
Zhang Yuan looked displeased.
"Senior, please don't tease me. I don't know any magic!"
Chen Yajing, with an "I know, I know" look on her face, said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I won't learn your magic for nothing. I'll treat you to milk tea next time."
Zhang Yuan: ...
