“You're saying that her ex-boyfriend is teaching in our school?”

Lu Sheng frowned. “Did she say which teacher it was?”

Tan Jun shook his head. “She didn't say.”

Lu Sheng nodded and kept him back into the Nurturing Talisman. She planned to find that female ghost after school.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became warmer. However, as everyone was engrossed in class, no one noticed.

Lu Sheng looked up at Zhou Mei and realized that her face was still very pale. She even lowered her head to stare at her phone from time to time.

Lu Sheng's eyelids drooped slightly. When Zeng Yan was not looking, she took out her phone.

The post was still there and the owner did not update it.

Moreover, it was class time now, so no one commented on the post.

There were three hundred and twenty comments currently.

Lu Sheng pursed her lips and refreshed the page manually. However, she strangely realized that the post had suddenly disappeared.

She was slightly stunned. She refreshed it a few more times and realized that the post had really disappeared.

Could she have deleted it? Lu Sheng guessed.

“The post has been deleted!”

When the bell rang, Zhou Mei told Zhu Ling and the rest excitedly.

Zhu Ling said calmly, “Good that it's deleted.”

“Thank you, Zhu Ling!”

Zhou Mei thought that Zhu Ling asked someone to delete the post, so she was very grateful to her.

Zhu Ling said, “We're sisters. Why are you being polite?”

Lu Sheng pursed her lips and did not say anything.

After school, Lu Sheng rejected Yang Chunmei's invitation to have a meal together and returned to the dormitory alone.

However, when she passed by Zhu Ling's dormitory, she did not feel any ghost aura.

“Strange. Did she leave?”

Lu Sheng frowned and mumbled.

Suddenly, her phone rang. It was Chu Yan.

“Why didn't I see you?”

When the call connected, Chu Yan's indifferent voice was heard.

“I'm not eating today. Go ahead and eat. I still have other things to do.”

“Do you need help?” Chu Yan asked.

“No need. I can settle it myself.”

“Okay, then… I'll find you later.”

“Okay!”

Lu Sheng had just hung up when a strong chill ran down her spine.

Ghost aura enveloped the surroundings instantly.

Lu Sheng suddenly turned her head and realized that Zhou Mei and the rest had just returned from their meal. Not far behind them was a girl in a white school uniform.

“Why are you standing here? Are you trying to steal something?”

When Zhou Mei saw Lu Sheng, her anger rose and her tone became exceptionally aggressive.

Chen Yizhen nodded at Lu Sheng and opened the door.

Zhu Ling glanced at Lu Sheng and ignored her. Lan Jia wanted to ignore Lu Sheng even more.

“Steal?” Lu Sheng sized her up and sneered. “Do you have anything valuable on you?”

“You—”

When Zhou Mei thought of the clothes Lu Sheng wore previously, she could not help but be speechless.

Not to mention stealing hers, but even Zhu Ling's were probably not worth stealing.

The door opened and the four of them entered.

Zhou Mei, who was walking at the back, closed the door and kept Lu Sheng outside.

Lu Sheng ignored them and focused on the female ghost.

The female ghost was about to walk past Lu Sheng and enter when Lu Sheng stopped her.

She shuddered and turned back.

It was a pale face. Even though she had become a ghost, one could still tell that her facial features were very pure.

“You can see me?”

Her pure facial features immediately became ferocious as she stared at Lu Sheng.

“Talk to me.”

As Lu Sheng spoke, she ignored her resistance and pulled her back to her dormitory.

As soon as she entered, Lu Sheng casually pasted a Soundproof Talisman on the door.

She released the female ghost's hand and sat on her seat. She looked up at the female ghost and asked, “Your name is Li Xia, right? You posted the post on the forum today, right?”

“So what if I did?” Li Xia smiled coldly. “Don't you think she's very annoying?”

Lu Sheng smiled faintly. “Of course.”

Li Xia smiled coldly. “In that case, shouldn't you be happy about my post?”

“Let's not talk about this first.” Lu Sheng looked at her and continued, “I heard that you stayed in Zhou Mei's bed before?”

“Yes, that's my bed. No one can stay there except me!”

Li Xia's eyes widened. It was obvious that she was very angry.

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Could it be that no one has stayed in your bed before?”

“Don't you know that the fifth floor has been sealed for five years?”

“Could it be related to you?”

“Of course.” Li Xia walked to the side and sat down slowly. She stared at her and said, “This floor used to be filled with runes. However, it seems like there aren't enough dormitory rooms this year, so the fifth floor is open again.”

Lu Sheng was enlightened. “This is why you've been loitering here?”

Could she not leave because she was surrounded by runes?

“Yes.”

Li Xia revealed a strange smile. “However, I'm finally free now. I'll definitely kill the cheating couple who betrayed me!”

“Betray?” Lu Sheng pretended to be puzzled. “Senior, why do you say that?”

Seemingly not expecting Lu Sheng to call her 'Senior,' Li Xia was stunned and her expression softened.

“We have been together since the second year of middle school. We studied together and worked hard to get into the same high school. Everything was clearly fine, but…”

At this point, Li Xia's expression became ferocious again.

“He actually betrayed me with my best friend!”

When Lu Sheng heard her story, she could not help but sigh.

It turned out to be the Dragon Boat Festival six years ago. Li Xia, her boyfriend, and a few friends in the village had agreed to go to the river to watch the dragon boat race.

However, even though Li Xia and her other friends had arrived, they did not see her boyfriend or friend, Zhou Qing.

She called her boyfriend and he said he had something on in the city and could not return anytime soon.

Later, she sent Zhou Qing a message. Unexpectedly, Zhou Qing said that she wasn't at home and probably couldn't go back.

She did not think much of it to begin with, much less involve these two people together.

Unexpectedly, after she returned to school, her roommate told her that she saw her boyfriend and a girl entering a hotel on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.

She did not believe it at first and felt that her dormitory mate might have seen the wrong person.

Unexpectedly, her dormitory mate showed her a picture.

Although they were quite far away, Li Xia could tell at a glance that they were her boyfriend and good friend, Zhou Qing.

The three of them were middle school classmates. Zhou Qing's results were average and she got into Bazhong. She and her boyfriend, Su Yi, got into Yizhong.

As school was quite far from home, where the public transport journey would take at least three to four hours and they even had to make a transfer to reach the village, they rarely went home.

Almost every weekend, the three of them would gather. Zhou Qing seemed to be quite responsible and did not seem like someone who would snatch a friend's boyfriend.

However, with the picture as evidence, Li Xia could not fall asleep and convince herself that this was fake.

Later, she used the picture to question her boyfriend, Su Yi. At first, he refused to admit it. Li Xia also felt that she might have been overthinking.

What if they met by chance and were seen by her dormitory mate when they passed by the hotel? What if it was a misunderstanding?

In the end, Li Xia coaxed herself and temporarily forgave Su Yi.

It was only later on when she realized that she was pregnant.

It was during her third year in high school. She was very scared, so she secretly looked for Su Yi to ask him what to do.

Both families were not rich. Their living expenses were only five hundred yuan a month.

They did not have enough money to abort the child. Moreover, they were third-year students. If news of this spread, it would not be good for them.

In the end, they had no choice but to come clean with their families.

In the end, the Su family forked out the money for her to abort the child secretly.

It was also at that time that Li Xia sensitively realized that Su Yi became colder to her.

It was only one day when Su Yi placed his phone with her. Coincidentally, Zhou Qing sent a message to Su Yi, allowing her to see the contents of the message.

Zhou Qing replied, “Ah Yi, have you clarified our relationship with Li Xia? I don't want to hide it from her anymore. We grew up together after all. The longer we spend time together, the guiltier I feel.”

Li Xia was shocked.

After a long while, she took his phone and questioned Su Yi again.

This time, Su Yi was really impatient from her pestering, so he admitted it.

He said that he no longer had feelings for her and that he had fallen in love with Zhou Qing. He hoped that she would fulfill his wish.

After returning to the dormitory, the more she thought about it, the sadder she became. After causing a scene, she lost all her rationality and went to the supermarket to buy a box of blades. After returning to the dormitory, she slit her wrists and committed suicide.

When her dormitory mate returned, she was already dead.

“I created a scene for a long time back then. After all, I've been with him for so many years. I love him so much and I even gave up everything to give myself to him. However… he actually said that he likes my friend.”

After a bitter smile, Li Xia regained her cold expression. “I trusted them so much, but they got together behind my back. If Su Yi doesn't die, the hatred in my heart won't be appeased!”

Lu Sheng kept feeling that Su Yi was a little familiar, as if she had heard of him before.

When she thought about it carefully, she realized that he was their Geography teacher.

Moreover, Lu Sheng remembered that he was only twenty-five years old and looked good.

Could it be that their Geography teacher was Li Xia's ex-boyfriend?

This person looked gentle. She did not expect him to be such a scumbag.

“You're too silly.”

Lu Sheng said lightly, “There are so many men in the world. So what if he's gone? Why did you have to do such an extreme thing? You're dead and trapped here for five years, but he's still alive and well. Haven't you suffered a loss?”

“I once regretted it too.” Li Xia's expression immediately turned sorrowful. She mumbled, “I hate myself for being too rash, but I hate him too. If not for him, I wouldn't have become like this.”

“It's been six years. Can't you let go?”

Lu Sheng persuaded, “If you want to leave, I can help you.”

“Help me?” Li Xia sneered. “Help me kill him?”

“I'm afraid that's not possible,” Lu Sheng said lightly. “Although he's a scumbag, he hasn't done anything outrageous except to betray you. I can't kill him for you.”

Li Xia said coldly, “But if he doesn't die, I won't leave.”

Lu Sheng pondered and said, “How about this? I'll bring you to see him. What do you think?”

She felt that although Li Xia said she wanted to kill Su Yi, she did not seem to have the intention to do so.

If she really wanted to kill Su Yi, she would not have waited until now.

When Li Xia heard that, she immediately turned around in a panic. “I'm not going!”

“Then, I'll go for you.”

Lu Sheng stood up, picked up her phone and key, and prepared to leave.

Li Xia turned her head to look at her. Seeing her pull open the door, she bit her lip and hurriedly followed her.

Lu Sheng ignored her and continued downstairs.

When she reached downstairs, Chu Yan called again.

Lu Sheng said a few words about Li Xia and said that she was going to the teachers' dormitory to find Su Yi.

When Chu Yan heard that, he told her to wait for him.

Lu Sheng thought that it would not be good for her to find Su Yi alone at this hour, so she agreed to wait for Chu Yan.

Chu Yan came from the third floor of the dining hall and met her in less than two minutes.

Chu Yan glanced at Li Xia and did not say anything. Instead, he passed Lu Sheng a cup of warm roasted milk tea with pearls.

“Thank you!”

After Lu Sheng received it, she took a sip and narrowed her eyes in satisfaction. She chewed the pearls in her mouth as she walked.

Li Xia stared at their backs blankly, and her eyes reddened.

She sniffed and hurried after them.

In the teachers' dormitory.

Su Yi, who had just prepared dinner and was about to eat, suddenly heard a knocking sound.

Puzzled, he opened the door and saw two students standing outside.

He was stunned and asked suspiciously, “Jiang Jing, what's the matter?”

“I have something to ask the teacher. Can we go in and take a seat?”

After speaking, Lu Sheng turned back to look at Li Xia. However, she realized that she did not approach him but stood far away.

“Come in.”

Su Yi walked over and let them in. “Have you eaten?”

Lu Sheng nodded. “We've already eaten.”

Su Yi smiled. “Speak. What do you want to ask?”

“I heard that the teacher was from our high school as well?” Lu Sheng asked casually.

“Yes, logically speaking, I'm both your teacher and your senior.”

As Su Yi spoke, he gestured for them to sit on the sofa. Then, he personally poured two cups of warm water for the two of them.

“Teacher, why don't you eat first? We'll ask after you're done.”

Lu Sheng was afraid that after she finished asking, Su Yi would not be able to eat and would waste food.

Su Yi smiled and shook his head. “It's alright. Ask away. I can eat anytime.”

“Okay then.”

Lu Sheng nodded. “It's like this. I wonder if you know someone called Li Xia?”

The smile on Su Yi's face froze. He was stunned for a while before his smile disappeared. He looked at Lu Sheng and asked, “Why are you suddenly asking this?”

“It seems like Teacher Su knows her.”

Lu Sheng placed the milk tea cup in her hand on the table and looked at him. “Is that right?”

Su Yi said coldly, “If there's nothing else, leave.”

Lu Sheng smiled and said calmly, “Teacher Su, whether you believe me or not, I still want to tell you that she's beside you now.”

Su Yi frowned slightly. “I don't know what nonsense you're saying.”

Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow and said innocently, “I'm telling the truth.. She's really behind you.”
