Chapter 389 - Volume 2 Chapter 110 / Chapter 391: You Are A Ghost

Volume 2 Chapter 110 / Chapter 391: You Are A Ghost

It was the first day of school.

Most students weren't in the mood for class at all—no one could focus, the whole classroom was a mess.

Some were playing on their phones, others chatting or joking around, the noise drowning out the teacher's voice completely.

Even Wen Yang looked distracted, frowning as if something was weighing on his mind.

Ning Chu leaned closer and whispered,

"So what now? You're not going to be the class monitor anymore, right?"

"I'll go with you to the office later." 

"Just make sure you keep that tuft of Black Bean's fur safe. That female ghost is terrified of it."

The original "An An storyline" had already been thrown off course, meaning the ghost no longer followed her old script.

No one knew what strange or dangerous thing she might do next.

"Quiet! Quiet down!"

The teacher at the podium finally lost patience and slammed the desk.

His angry shout instantly silenced the room.

Ning Chu flinched, quickly straightening up and folding her arms on the desk like an obedient primary schooler.

She sat right in the front row, her round black eyes darting nervously all over the place.

Huh?

Why was Lily's face so red?

Only then did she notice—Lily's cheeks were flushed bright pink, her head bowed, expression blank.

Sensing Ning Chu's gaze, Lily glanced up briefly with watery eyes, then bit her lip and lowered her head again, pretending to focus on doodling in her textbook.

Ning Chu followed her line of sight downward… and instantly understood Lily's current "condition."

As expected of Lily.

Even though she's in heat, her willpower to keep herself in check really was impressive.

If she hadn't personally experienced the same thing before, she might've thought Lily was just feeling sick.

Ning Chu snickered to herself—but her smile quickly faded into worry.

When that kind of thing happened in public, Lily could still keep a straight face, sit upright, and act like nothing was wrong.

But she definitely couldn't!

Before she'd ever been with a man, she'd already found it hard to hide her reactions.

Now that she had, she'd probably lose control completely—collapse over her desk, gasping for breath… maybe even lose all reason and ride Wen Yang right there in class—

Oh crap!

That wouldn't just be social death—that would be actual death!

Wait a second… This all seemed strangely familiar.

In one of the short stories she'd written—the ones about Wen Yang and Lily—there was a scene just like this:

Lily had a sudden heat during class, tried to endure it, but Wen Yang noticed and secretly played with her under the desk until she broke down in tears and went ahegao.

They'd even gone further in the classroom afterward.

And it hadn't stopped there, she'd written versions set in the library, on the bus, at the movies—even using remote toys while shopping or eating out.

It was exciting to write—that rush of doing something forbidden in public made the scenes electric.

But no matter how flexible her moral compass was, Ning Chu knew she could never actually do something like that herself!

Still, the good news was that Wen Yang now showed no interest in Lily at all.

The bad news was that she herself might be the one to take Lily's place in that particular storyline.

Wen Yang had even mentioned wanting to "recreate" some of those old plotlines before…

Her expression darkened as she looked at him—this guy might actually lose control one day and act it out for real.

"What's wrong?" Wen Yang looked down at her, misunderstanding her meaning. He explained sheepishly, "I don't know what's going on," he muttered awkwardly, pulling at his jacket to hide the obvious erection he got below. "It's not like I was thinking anything weird…"

"Pervert."

"Hey, it's not my fault—it's yours!" he shot back under his breath

After spending so much time around this little succubus, he already knew her pheromones were basically a natural aphrodisiac to any man.

At a little past ten in the morning, the bell finally rang for the end of class.

The teacher let out a visible sigh of relief, grabbed his book, and practically bolted out the door.

The students immediately exploded into chatter again, crowding toward the exit.

Lily had finally calmed down, though Yan Xinya was still whispering teasing remarks into the succubus ear, clearly having too much fun watching her squirm.

"There's only one class this morning," Wen Yang said, glancing at the schedule. "This afternoon we've got P.E. and career-planning."

He looked up again.

"What do you want for lunch?"

"I saw a new fast-food stall open near the cafeteria this morning," Ning Chu said. "Let's go check if it's open later."

Just then, Zhang Shaoqing popped his head between them.

"Hey, Ning Chu! Want to come to dinner tonight? My treat!"

"No."

"Oh come on! It's the dorm welcome dinner! We'll eat, then hit karaoke—there'll even be cute girls to drink with!"

Ning Chu pointed toward Qian Qian, who was waiting out in the hallway.

Zhang Shaoqing's grin collapsed.

"Right… another time then."

He sighed, then quickly put on a new smile and strolled toward Qian Qian instead.

"Let's go," Wen Yang said.

"Okay."

Ning Chu hurried to her feet and jogged after him.

"Wait up!"

Wen Yang slowed his pace deliberately, teasing,

"With legs that short, how are you ever supposed to run if something happens?"

"They're not short! Proportionally speaking, they're perfectly long! You're just tall, that's all."

"Mm-hmm. Sure, sure."

Bickering all the way, they climbed to the fourth floor of the academic building, checking the door plates for the ghost's office.

As they drew closer, the air itself seemed to grow colder and heavier, carrying a faint, eerie chill.

"Why does this feel exactly like one of those horror-movie setups—where the two side characters go snooping around and die before the first quarter is over?"

Wen Yang's eyes darted around, clearly searching for something he could use as a weapon.

"It's not that bad," Ning Chu muttered. "She's a lust ghost, not a vengeful one. And it's broad daylight—she shouldn't do anything crazy… right?"

She tried to sound calm, but when they stopped in front of Room 404, she couldn't help shivering.

Wait—404? That number wasn't exactly lucky.

In Chinese, four meant "death," and 404 literally meant "does not exist."

Was this foreshadowing?

Would she and Wen Yang end up dying here as a pair of tragic lovers—or worse, would she have to watch her boyfriend get drained dry by the ghost?

She instinctively stepped back, half-hiding behind Wen Yang.

Wen Yang was nervous too, but with his girlfriend behind him, there was no way he could act cowardly.

After hesitating a moment, he lifted his hand to knock.

Before his knuckles touched the door, a gust of cold wind swept through the corridor.

The door creaked open on its own, just a sliver.

Goosebumps raced up his arms. A chill ran down his spine, and a thin layer of sweat broke out across his skin.

When he glanced back, Ning Chu had already retreated several meters, ready to bolt at any second.

"My legs are short," she said defensively, "so starting early is perfectly reasonable, right?"

"Reasonable?!" he hissed.

They both jumped again when a voice came from the side.

"What are you two doing, acting like you've seen a ghost?"

It was An An, walking out of the public restroom, blinking at them in confusion.

"You are a ghost!"

Ning Chu instantly darted behind Wen Yang again, peeking over his shoulder with wide, wary eyes.

Better to stick close to the protagonist's plot armor!

An An rolled her eyes.

"Honestly, you two… I'm a civil servant ghost with a steady job! A righteous, kind-hearted, law-abiding ghost who doesn't eat people!"

She marched straight past them toward her office, muttering,

"I'm so nice I even give pep talks to depressed boys sometimes. Everyone says I'm a good ghost, thank you very much!"
