Chapter 48: Feng Ru (7)
Chapter 48: Feng Ru (7)
The villainess, at first, was very puzzled why she accepted that helping hand, thwarting her plans to aid Na Yu escape from all the pain, heartaches and sorrows.
When she couldn't find the answer even after pondering over it for an hour, she felt cheated and then went angry. Because of this, the vengeful ghost entered a random dorm room and relieved her stress by scaring a few innocent girls there to death.
...
The morning of the next day....
"Do you know Na Yu?"
"Ah, yeah. The one who almost killed herself yesterday?"
"Uh-huh. From the Accountancy Course. Damn. The police said there is a criminal on the loose who threatened that poor girl to jump off!!
"I knew it! My goddess is not the suicidal type. I knew her coz I'm one of her followers on IG. She's very lively and cheerful. There is no way someone like her will try to take her own life!"
"Poor girl. But it seems there's something unnerving going on in the university. I wonder if we're all safe..."
Jiang Li was with Xie Du, the bespectacled drummer of the band. They sat at the leftmost table in the cafeteria waiting for their pals to finish ordering food for them. Both men looked bored. The difference was that Jiang Li was bored looking around and eavesdropping while the other was bored playing online games.
"Ugh, my stomach is growling louder than the tiger boss in this mobile game!"
Brother four eyes was faster than a lightning when he put away his phone, get his food from the tray Cheng Du was carrying, and grabbed his spoon.
"Brother He, you don't have classes this afternoon, right?"
Jiang Li nodded, digging into his own meal.
"All of us are free so let's just record a cover at my place. What song should we select?" Cheng Du asked.
Jiang Li raised an eyebrow. "I thought Little Nian has a class under Prof. Xu?"
The baby-faced guy cheekily replied, "I'm skipping it. History classes are borrrriiiiiingggggg!"
The transmigrator looked at him, a vein in his forehead throbbing. For everyone here who had already made up their mind to enter the music industry, it was no exaggeration to say that all non-music related subjects are torturous and uninteresting.
'Fine. The best I can do is to leave these guys a place at the top of this industry.'
A corner of his lips suddenly tugged up as he vowed this to himself.
Jiang Li could only stay in this world due to the Original's condition when he lent the body to him, hence his claim sounded so insane and unattainable. Add to this the fact that unlike the previous case, in this world he was merely a guy from a village! Not from a fairly influential family!
How was he supposed to accomplish this within three months while also completing two troublesome missions?
'I'll build a sizable fanbase with them by covering some songs, then create our own originals, and hack our way into topping the charts. It's stupid to directly tamper with the list, so maybe just make our songs stay in the front page of all music stores and video sharing sites? Hmmm... Doable!'
It would be cheating, but so what? He'd really chop the system into pieces if the Original goes against his plans and makes trouble for him again.
"The university's music room is good. It has nice soundproofing, is closer, and will cost us nothing too. Let's record there and upload the vid after."
To Jiang Li's reply, the oldest nodded, "I'll speak with the coordinator then. In any case, we're Aurora University's official band."
Two hours later, everything said had been done. The group left the place in a light-hearted mood, joking around, and laughing.
Jiang Li was quite annoyed though, he was the center of attention. The boys were probably worried that he'd be depressed and copy yesterday's suicidal student. The bad impression he had against the female lead rose to unimaginable heights due to this.
Speaking of the devil, just when they were heading towards the gate planning to hang out at their big brother's place, they chanced upon three people engaged in a conversation next to a car parked in a deserted spot. They were Tang Lan, Gu Feng, and Na Yu.
The police officer was not wearing his uniform, but in a casual blue dress shirt and pants, looking so stoic yet handsome. The man was mostly talking to the prettier female student. Na Yu was visibly pale. However, her eyes gave off a clear and bright glimmer so unlike someone who had just attempted to kill herself. Based on how the male lead and this lucky extra appeared to be in a QA session, Jiang Li guessed that Gu Feng was curious about the ghost possession.
"That ungrateful b*tch!"
Nobody from the band apart from Jiang Li recognized Gu Feng as a police officer. They only saw Tang Lan being close to a man who seemed to be the owner of the blue car. They thought that she was with that guy.
If she was already in love with someone else, why didn't she say anything to reject He Chen? All this time, this Tang Lan kept being ambiguous which sparked the wrong signals in their brother's head!
The boys stared daggers at the leads' direction and shook their heads as if they were looking at a vain and evil woman and an aircon type second gen. Jiang Li didn't bother correcting them, enjoying their amusing reactions. To make the matter worse, he looked away and sported an uncaring face. He Chen's friends took it as if he was hurt but wanted to keep his pride.
"I won't accept this! I'll have a serious talk with that damn woman!"
"... Let's just leave."
"Yeah, stop it, Rascal Su. Don't make a scene!"
Unfortunately, none of Jiang Li and Cheng Du's words entered the ears of the rebellious guy who had swiftly marched towards Tang Lan. The angry expression on his face was scary, as if he was ready to beat up someone...
