Chapter 60: Eating Vinegar (Getting Jealous)



With answering his test papers as his cover, the other two people also thought that Luo Xing came in here to study and didn’t pay much attention to him.

Due to the limitations of his current position, Luo Xing was able to observe the guy on the first row easily, but as for the girl… Luo Xing had no other choice but to look back from time to time. This was simply too conspicuous.

However, there was nothing out of the blue in the girl’s behavior. She was just memorizing her materials and nothing more.

Luo Xing watched them for a while and felt that these two might have been just normal NPCs, so he didn’t watch them closely.

However, he was still on alert for that girl since her current circumstances were extremely similar to the female ghost’s description in the story.

After watching them for 20 minutes, Luo Xing rubbed his eyes and believed that this observation wasn’t reaching anything useful.

He used most of his energy in answering the English test papers sprawled out below his hands, only occasionally lifting his head to confirm that the two were still sitting in their original places. He didn’t experience any mishaps.

Before he knew it, Luo Xing threw himself into his English practice exams and quickly wrote down the reading comprehension answers.

Luo Xing read this and felt a cold breeze brush his back.

Especially after taking a look at the multiple-choice questions below, the practice exam asked what was stuck inside the cabinet after a few months. He effortlessly chose the human skeleton(1), left with a feeling that this theme was too sick.

  1. The human skeleton answer was in English since Luo Xing is answering an English paper.

Was such a trivial question suitable for them, the flowers of the motherland?

After Luo Xing finished reading the essay, he believed that the three characters inside the story had their own problems.

The lover was about to have a wall built in front of him and still didn’t say anything, insisting on keeping his secret affair with the fickle woman. It was basically an act of losing his mind.

Meanwhile, the wife saw that her lover was about to die, but she still didn’t say anything. It was evident that her selfishness was too extreme.

As for the husband that was cheated on, his quick thinking was already twisted from the beginning. He didn’t use any other way to solve his problem and decided to build a wall for a person, not even minding that he would be living with a ghost of the dead that could ooze out fear.

As usual, Luo Xing could only let out a gasp of surprise after reading this kind of reading comprehension essay. He would usually talk to his classmates about this particular piece of work, adding some form of fun in the academic strain of the high school workload.

However, in this haunted environment, the pleasure he got from this practice exam began to turn into horror, making him feel depressed and taking away his mood to answer any more questions.

After he entered the game, he had always felt that whatever he did never went smoothly. Right now, his exam papers had also betrayed him.

Luo Xing then folded his exam papers and stuffed them inside his pocket. He was entirely not in the mood to answer them.

He also put his pen into his trouser pocket. He took out his phone and put it in front of him, holding his cheek and pretending to play on it.

At around 9:30 PM, the girl sitting at the back suddenly stood up.

She grabbed her graduate studies exam book and walked out of the study room. As she was leaving the room, her mouth still unceasingly dictated the contents of the book.

When the girl left, Luo Xing’s mood was lifted.

Although he thought that the girl was an NPC, there was still someone he suspected to be a ghost in the study room, and there were questions he was afraid to ask.

Hearing the girl’s footsteps slowly fade in the distance, Luo Xing then stood up and walked towards the guy’s side.

The boy, who was sitting in the first row, was editing the documents on his laptop.

The boy looked busy. If he had encountered such a person in real life, Luo Xing would be uncomfortable disturbing him.

However, in the game, a piece of seemingly unremarkable information could influence his life.

Amid his uncomfortableness, Luo Xing put on a thick face and shamelessly asked, “Senior, do you have time?”

“If there’s something you want to say, then say it. Can’t you see that I’m busy revising my paper!” The boy impatiently answered back. Seeing how Luo Xing was, he suspiciously said, “Who are you?”

“I’m a freshman. And, I just wanted to ask if senior knew the girl who had left just now?”

“You’re asking about the girl who went out?”

The guy’s expression immediately turned sour. He closed his laptop and completely stopped editing his work.

The boy cracked his fingers while his eyes reflected an incomparable fierceness, his face containing a harsh smile, “What? Do you also want to tap Fang Tongtong? Little boy, I’ll tell you this! Female upperclassmen are for the seniors, while the female underclassmen are yours!

“I’m not! I didn’t! Senior, you misunderstood me!”

Seeing that the study room was about to witness a murder between love rivals, Luo Xing quickly denied it.

The boy’s expressions still didn’t improve, so Luo Xing promptly remedied, “Senior, may I ask your name? Is that sister your girlfriend?”

“My name is Qin Sibo, and I think the two of us need to get to know each other more!”

Luo Xing expressed over and over again that he wasn’t lusting after the sister from earlier, but Qin Sibo still didn’t believe him.

As a man, he also understood other men. If one didn’t have any intentions for a girl, why would one discreetly seek more info about her?

Moreover, Fang Tongtong was a pretty girl with beautiful features, so she had a lot of pursuers. Qin Sibo was one of them and had continuously tried to pursue Fang Tongtong. Even the people near them had a hard time not knowing about it.

Seeing that this freshman didn’t know about his circumstances, Qin Sibo’s expression softened a bit, but he still aggressively said, “Fang Tongtong still hasn’t answered me, but it’s coming soon! Freshman, Tongtong is a kindhearted girl, so your eyes are not bad. But, listen to your senior’s advice, don’t compete with me. It’s still too early for you to have thoughts about this. Or else, don’t blame this senior for being unkind to you!”

“Senior, you’ve misunderstood. I really don’t have any intentions of pursuing her.” Luo Xing immediately shook his head.

Not to mention that this was the game’s world. In the real world, he invested all of this time and concentration into his studies, so how could he be in the mood to court someone.

But, Qin Sibo didn’t believe him. It seemed to him that Luo Xing was a crafty hypocrite.

Seeing that he was no longer responding, Qin Sibo wanted to resort to violence. On the other hand, Luo Xing showed a strained smile and was forced to admit that he had mischievous goals for Fang Tongtong as he realized the actual reality.

He quietly went back to his seat in the middle and fished out his English exam papers again, dejectedly answering them.

Seeing that he had beaten his rival in love with simply a few threatening words, Qin Sibo felt extremely proud of himself.

He then returned to his place and continued to edit his paper.

Inadvertently, the time had reached 10:30 PM.

At this time, the school had already been locked up long ago. Qin Sibo was finally done fixing his document, so he stretched his tired body to relax and then put his laptop into his bag, preparing to leave the study room.

“Hey, why are you still here?”

Seeing that Luo Xing had also stayed behind in the study room, Qin Sibo’s expression grew more dangerous. Did this little punk’s evil intentions towards Fang Tongtong not dead yet?

“Senior, you’re leaving? I’ll leave with you.”

Luo Xing pretended to not hear Qin Sibo’s words, basically not entertaining him at all.

A jealous man was absolutely terrifying. There was simply no way to explain oneself. Although Luo Xing has never been in love, he has never eaten pork and has only seen pigs run(2). Furthermore, he had just finished reading how scary a raging man could get.

  1. Although one has never experienced the matter personally, one has seen it and possesses little understanding of it.

For the sake of his safety, Luo Xing didn’t close the lights and just prepared to leave the study room straight.

Seeing this, Qin Sibo knocked on the door and impatiently said, “Freshman, the lights! Close the lights!”

“My bad, I forgot.” Luo Xing felt a little stifled when he was left behind to close the lights.

Qin Sibo, as a love rival, was very difficult to deal with, but Luo Xing never expected him to be a decent person.

Among the numerous stories he had read, closing the lights was the easiest way to meet the hidden ghost.

However, Qin Sibo had already reminded him. He better not ignore him and not turn off the lights.

Qin Sibo originally saw Luo Xing as an eyesore. If he didn’t close the lights, Qin Sibo would have assumed that he was deliberately picking a fight, where he’ll just reasonably beat him up.

Qin Sibo was older than him by a lot of years and had also grown stronger in college, so he had no chance of beating him.

Luo Xing turned his head and closed the lights, being on edge until he walked out that door.

The husband in his practice papers built a wall to trap the lover. He was a tiny bit afraid that Qin Sibo was still jealous and was someone who became violent when eating vinegar.

Fortunately, he saved the belly of a gentleman with a villain’s heart(3). Qin Sibo was jealous, but he couldn’t do such a despicable and shameless thing.

  1. To gauge the heart of a gentleman with one’s own mean measure.

After switching the lights off, Qin Sibo silently locked the door. He still didn’t see Luo Xing in a good light.

On the other hand, Luo Xing was completely unconcerned if Qin Sibo was beating him up in his heart and just walked behind him without uttering a single word, the two people strolling along and preserving quietness.

Unlike the relaxedness he felt inside the classroom, this time, all of Luo Xing’s senses were hyperactive, his body paying attention to every single detail in his surroundings.

After walking outside the study room, the ghost story could start at any given time. Maybe it was right around the corner and could make a ghoul unexpectedly jump out, which would lead him to get a mortal wound.

Luo Xing kept silent as he closely followed Qin Sibo in the deserted corridor, only their footsteps echoed along the halls. The motion-sensing lights reacted on top of them as they illuminated their path.

With light being there, Luo Xing’s heart did not particularly fall into panic.

However, from time to time, he gazed at both his sides, being on alert from every door they passed through.

The pitch-black classrooms were usually a hiding place for filthy objects. Once, he was almost caught by the game before, so he was subconsciously paying attention to these seemingly insignificant details.

Soon, the two people passed through the soulless corridor, and ahead of them was the third floor’s stairs.

At the entrance of the stairs, there was a girl with braided pigtails that had her back turned on them. Her nose was deeply buried in the graduate studies exam book as she crouched down on the door as if she was engrossed in her weeping.

With the girl that he liked seemed to be crying, Qin Sibo’s heart immediately became anxious.

He suddenly took a step forward, wanting to comfort her and ask her what was wrong.

However, before he could walk over, Luo Xing pulled him and said with a soft voice, “Senior, don’t go. There seems to be something wrong with her.”

“F*ck! My woman is crying. What’s your business here?”

Qin Sibo’s rage quickly grew then shaking off Luo Xing, walking over to Fan Tongtong’s side with large strides.

Fang Tongtong was crouched down, her head buried inside the book. Qin Sibo walked to her side and bent his waist, asking in a gentle tone, “Tongtong, what happened? What’s the matter?”

Fang Tongtong didn’t reply, but Qin Sibo still patiently asked her one more time.

This time, Fang Tongtong finally and slowly turned her head——

Her pigtails were flung to her back, exposing a fresh and pure face. Unfortunately, a dark red zipper replaced her lips, and the eerie zipper appeared to still be dripping with black-red blood.

“Th-This…”

Qin Sibo recoiled back from the shock and looked backward to ask for help, making Luo Xing shake his head violently.

Seeing Qin Sibo win himself an unclear reality, Luo Xing coldly said, “Senior, have you heard of ghosts?”
