Under the bright white moonlight, Lin Ling, who was sitting on a stone next to the ditch, heard the sound and turned her head to look. The delicate face that was so beautiful that it seemed to be shining ran straight into Chao Ci's eyes.
Thump, thump, thump.
The sound of my heart beating was deafening, as if it was about to break.
Chao Ci's Adam's apple rolled involuntarily, and his fingers holding the corn leaves exerted slight force, leaving traces on the green leaves.
Until Lin Ling smiled and said: "You are here."
The soft and moving voice brought Chao Ci back from his thoughts.
Letting go of Baomi Ye, Chao Ci hummed, then walked to sit down next to Lin Ling.
The rocks next to the ditch are large enough for two people to sit on.
There was a fist's distance between them.
In the past, when Lin Ling did not live on campus, Lin Ling would come here every Tuesday to watch the stars.
Later, Chao Ci passed by accidentally, and the number of people looking at the stars changed from one to two.
After watching the stars, Chao Ci would personally send Lin Ling home on the grounds that "it's not safe for you to go home alone", extending the time he and Lin Ling spend alone together.
Chao Ci was not sure whether Lin Ling would come today.
But fortunately, he made the right bet.
Lin Ling came anyway.
Chao Ci cherishes every time he spends watching the stars with Lin Ling.
There was only time for him and Lin Ling.
There were no annoying classmates or annoying teachers, just him and Lin Ling...
Like a date...
that is...
Looking at Lin Ling's military green camouflage uniform and his own dark blue school uniform, Chao Ci lowered his eyebrows and felt a little unhappy.
If I had known, he should have found a military training uniform, so... maybe he and Lin Ling could look more like a couple.
"Are you busy recently?"
Lin Ling, who was looking up at the stars, suddenly turned his head to look at Chao Ci, and took the initiative to ask Chao Ci with concern.
"I haven't seen you in the classroom several times. Is something wrong?"
"It's okay." Chao Ci shook his head, with a bright smile on his face, but it was a bit coquettish because of his naturally passionate peach blossom eyes.
"I'm not in the classroom because there are always fights between classmates recently, and I went to break up the fights."
As the class monitor and a member of the Discipline Department, Chao Ci has to take care of the students who have a small dozen every three days and a big dozen every five days.
'Fighting' has become a common occurrence in this school.
The law of the jungle is the basic condition for the survival of the ghosts in this school.
However, after Lin Ling arrived, all the students wanted to leave a good impression in front of Lin Ling, so the fight turned from overt to covert.
Gradually, because attention shifted to Lin Ling, and with Chao Ci's intimidation, the ghosts had no time to fight to the death.
Nanfeng School, which has always been a violent school, ushered in a brief period of peace.
Although occasionally there would still be a few ghosts that wanted to cause trouble and disturb Lin Ling's peaceful campus life, Chao Ci could easily get rid of them.
But this peace was disrupted by the manicure Lin Ling gave alone two days ago.
Jealousy and anger overwhelmed the minds of many ghosts, and Chao Ci, who was responsible for getting rid of them, naturally had little time to attend classes in the classroom.
The ghosts in the school didn't understand why Chao Ci did what he did, just like what Yin Yi said.
Chao Ci is a ghost, not a human being. He should be eager to kill all the beings who are close to Lin Ling, so that it is normal for him to be the only one around Lin Ling.
Let the ghosts coexist peacefully.
In Nanfeng School, it was a strange and silly idea.
Jealousy, paranoia, and destroying something if you can't get it are dark behaviors for humans, but they are the normal thoughts of their ghosts.
But - do you think Chao Ci really wants his classmates to live in peace?
He wished that all the ghosts in the school would kill each other. The more ghosts that died, the better.
This way, there would be fewer distractions for Lin Ling.
It’s just that Chao Ci did this because he hadn’t heard that a long time ago, in this place and at this time, Lin Ling didn’t say with longing that he would find an ordinary job, an ordinary boyfriend, and live an ordinary life after graduation. life.
Also, the ideal type is a cute boy like Chao Ci.
Chao Ci is not a big dog who doesn't ask for anything in return, but a vicious wolf with deliberate intentions.
The future described by Lin Ling was enough for Chao Ci to temporarily suppress the jealousy in his heart and try his best to create an 'ordinary campus' life for Lin Ling.
Because Chao Ci has automatically assumed the identity of Lin Ling's 'ordinary boyfriend'.
And they imagined a happy life for the two of them, such as going to work, getting off work, cooking, etc. together in the future.
Then he thought of something. Chao Ci's eyes were floating, the tips of his ears were red, and his whole body began to feel hot.
He raised his hand and pulled up his sleeves, trying to get rid of the heat on his body, but he didn't notice that several wounds on his arms scratched by nails were exposed, and blood was still oozing out.
Lin Ling, who accidentally saw the wound, had worries and distress for him in her eyes, "Did you get injured while trying to break up the fight?"
"Does it hurt?"
"It won't hurt if you blow it."
His mind started to heat up, and Chao Ci, who originally wanted to say it didn't hurt, said such a sentence for some unknown reason.
Chao Ci reacted angrily and was about to say that he was joking, but Lin Ling approached Chao Ci and lowered his head.
The warm breath sprayed on the wound, and the numbing feeling instantly spread from the wound to the whole body, making Chao Ci freeze up, his cheeks were stained with blush, and even his breathing became disordered.
too close.
So close that he could smell the sweet fragrance emanating from her body.
So close that it seemed like he could reach out and hold her in his arms.
"Cha Ci? Chao Ci?"
Lin Ling stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Chao Ci. After Chao Ci came to his senses, she asked, "Does it still hurt?"
Chao Ci said softly, as if he was aggrieved and wanted to win sympathy: "It still hurts..."
So I have to blow it...
Unexpectedly, Lin Ling stood up in the next second and reached out to him.
"The infirmary is not closed at this time. Let's go and treat the wounds."
"..."
The expression on Chao Ci's face froze, and he had the urge to slap himself.
If I had known earlier, I would have said it wouldn't hurt.
It was only half past nine, and he had only been with Lin Ling for more than ten minutes! He doesn't want to leave so soon!
but...
Looking up to meet Lin Ling's worried eyes, Chao Ci still raised his hand and asked Lin Ling to pull him up.
On the dirt road back to school, the moonlight stretched the shadows of the two of them very long, just like the warm scene that Chao Ci had imagined countless times in his mind, of the two of them walking together after dinner.
After treating the wound, Chao Ci returned to the dormitory and looked at the gauze on his hand that Lin Ling had bandaged himself, smiling like a fool.
The remaining jealousy in my heart about Yoongi receiving a manicure disappeared completely.
What’s a hand-done manicure? He is Lin Ling's favorite person! ! !

small theater.
Lin Ling said: My ideal type is a cute boy like you.
What Chao Ci heard: After graduation, confess and get married, understand?
Facing a group of ghosts who wanted to fight for Lin Ling, Chao Ci said in his heart: Let's fight. Anyway, Lin Ling has promised to marry me after graduation.
