“I’m telling you, Xiaoshan, your cousin is a bit useless.” Yang Jian sat down in the private room and spoke.

Even if Shangguan Yun supported him.

He didn’t dare to do anything to Fei and his gang, he just made them apologize and admit their mistakes before letting them go.

Yang Jian thought that Shangguan Yun was too righteous.

If it were him, he would have made Fei and his gang leave something behind no matter what.

“Your parents let him come and take care of you in this state? I think you should suggest to your parents to replace your cousin with me. I promise to take care of you until you get pregnant, uh, sorry, I misspoke, I promise to take care of you very well.” Miao Xiaoshan blushed and scolded him.

“Don’t talk nonsense. Wang Shanshan is just a classmate. It’s just a matter of helping each other out. She can’t compare to us, who have been classmates for six years.” Yang Jian said.

Wang Shanshan’s face turned pale. She sat there motionless, quiet, without any expression on her face.

“I’m going to another province to study soon, so you shouldn’t think about me anymore.” Miao Xiaoshan said, her cute face blushing.

Zhang Wei couldn’t stand it anymore and knocked on the table, saying seriously, “Miao Xiaoshan, please watch your words. I feel like you’re trying to seduce Yang Jian. He belongs to the collective, not just you. Your ideological consciousness still needs improvement. Write a 5,000-word self-criticism when you go back and send it to me tomorrow.”

“I don’t want to talk to you.” Miao Xiaoshan rolled her eyes at him.

“You’re still not convinced. You must be feeling guilty. Yang Jian, I told you she’s interested in you. Otherwise, she wouldn’t reply to me when I invited her to the gathering, but she rushed over as soon as she heard you were coming. If I had known she was so ungrateful, I wouldn’t have helped save her cousin.” Zhang Wei said.

Miao Xiaoshan said, “It’s because your singing is so terrible.”

“My singing is terrible? Look at my Adam’s apple. It trembles when I sing. It’s a talent only possessed by the singing god Jacky Cheung.” Zhang Wei confidently tilted his neck and said, “Zhao Lei, how do you think my singing is?”

“Gives me goosebumps.” Zhao Lei said.

“You see, he was moved by my singing.” Zhang Wei said.

“Ignore you. I want to talk to Yang Jian. By the way, Yang Jian, what were you doing just now? It’s a good thing you arrived in time, or else your cousin would have been in trouble.” Miao Xiaoshan said.

“I almost forgot about the fight because of you guys. Actually, I went out to ask the waiter about the situation. Why did they bring seven bottles of beer for the six of us?” Yang Jian leaned back on the sofa and slowly spoke.

“Isn’t that strange?” Zhang Wei said.

Miao Xiaoshan said, “Isn’t it supposed to be one bottle of beer per person for the activities here? Did the waiter make a mistake?”

Yang Jian shook his head, “No, the waiter said that we didn’t come with six people, but with seven people, so they brought seven bottles of beer. In other words, there was one extra person among us.”

“An extra person?”

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately froze.

“It was the same during dinner. There was an extra set of tableware on the table. At that time, the four of us, me, Wang Shanshan, Zhang Wei, and Zhao Lei, were eating, but there were five sets of tableware.”

Yang Jian said, “I find it strange. I’m afraid there might be something supernatural happening in this restaurant, so I asked you all to leave in advance. But now… it seems that the extra person didn’t appear in the restaurant, but has been following us all along. If we’re lucky, that extra person might be in this private room right now.”

As soon as he said this, everyone felt a chilling sensation behind them. They immediately stared at each other, feeling an inexplicable fear.

All of this reminded them of the fear they had experienced when the school was controlled.

“Are you saying that one of us is haunted? Then what are we waiting for? Let’s run.” Zhao Lei stood up in shock and instinctively wanted to run.

But Yang Jian sat there motionless, “Don’t run for now. It’s useless to run. Where can you run to? Obviously, the ghost is appearing with one of us, and we don’t know if the target will change after our gathering. If you leave here and nothing happens, then it’s good.”

“But what if the ghost follows you home? Then things will become even more troublesome.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Lei, who had just wanted to escape, suddenly froze in his tracks.

If a ghost followed him home, what would happen? Just thinking about it was terrifying.

“Why would there be a haunting in such a peaceful place?” Zhang Wei also felt uneasy.

Yang Jian smiled, “How would I know? Hauntings don’t always have signs or reasons. It’s just bad luck when you encounter one.”

“What do we do now?” Miao Xiaoshan asked.

“Find out who the ghost is following, then the others should leave to avoid getting involved. After that, I’ll try to solve this matter.” Yang Jian pondered for a moment and spoke seriously.

If he didn’t help, someone among them would definitely die.

“Just because of what you said, I have to call you brother, Brother Leg.” Zhang Wei patted his thigh, moved.

“Brother Leg.”

Zhao Lei also looked at him excitedly.

“Leg, Brother Leg.” Miao Xiaoshan also hesitantly called out.

In front of a vengeful ghost, there was nothing they couldn’t let go of.

But Yang Jian spread his hands, “If I can’t find the ghost or if I don’t have the ability to deal with it, I can only apologize. Although it’s cruel, I have to tell you in advance to prepare for the worst.”

“Brother Leg, don’t say that. You must have a way, right?” Zhang Wei felt like he was about to cry.

“It’s difficult to have confidence in solving this kind of thing. By the way, where’s Big Cousin? Where did he go?” Yang Jian noticed that Big Cousin was missing.

Miao Xiaoshan said, “He went to the restroom.”

Shangguan Yun was indeed in the restroom.

He was injured.A punch to the nose had left him bleeding.

“What rotten luck, getting beaten up by a bunch of punks who can’t even grow a full beard.” Shangguan Yun lowered his head to wash his face, feeling a surge of anger in his heart.

But the way that guy named Fei had shamelessly begged for mercy earlier left him unsure of how to retaliate.

Yang Jian had handed him a gun, but he dared not use it.

Using a gun to kill someone would mean a death sentence unless you had powerful backing. He really didn’t know what his cousin, who was also his classmate, did for a living. She could even get her hands on a gun, and it seemed that those punks had suffered at her hands before. All of his classmates respected him greatly.

He was undoubtedly a class bully.

“Could that kid be after my adorable cousin?” Shangguan Yun thought to himself.

In front of the washbasin was a large mirror. Shangguan Yun, who was washing his face, didn’t notice that under the reflection of the mirror, a figure had eerily appeared in the mirror.

However, there was no one else in the bathroom except him.

It was as if this person only existed in the mirror, not in reality, or perhaps, this person was right next to you, only visible through the mirror.

The person in the mirror was slowly approaching Shangguan Yun, who was washing his face.

His pace wasn’t slow, but the distance shown in the mirror was farther than imagined, not just the size of a bathroom.

However, Shangguan Yun didn’t notice this. His nose started bleeding again, and he bent over to rinse it under the running tap.

Soon.

The person had walked up to the mirror, his figure growing from small to large, gradually covering almost the entire mirror.

“Water got into my eyes.” Shangguan Yun blinked, quickly reaching for the washbasin next to him.

He remembered there were tissues next to it.

However, after feeling around for a bit, he didn’t find them. It seemed like the tissues had been moved from their original spot.

But then he felt two tissues. It seemed like a kind person had handed them to him.

“Thank you,” Shangguan Yun said.

The person didn’t respond.

Soon.

Shangguan Yun dried his face and opened his eyes, looking into the mirror.

However, his reflection in the mirror looked somewhat pale, his eyes empty and lifeless.

“Huh?” Shangguan Yun touched his face.

Did he look that bad?

But as soon as he lifted his head, his nose started bleeding again. He quickly lowered his head and grabbed two tissues to cover it.

While Shangguan Yun was bent over wiping his nose, his reflection in the mirror remained standing, not following his movements. Instead, its head turned slightly, eerily looking at Shangguan Yun.
