Chapter 65 Campus Ghost Stories
Chapter 65 Campus Ghost Stories
After a long while,
Bai Yuze scratched his head and said, "How about this, there are still three hours until midnight. I will teach you humanities subjects for one hour."
"Xiaoqing will teach you science concepts for one hour, and you'll have another hour to do practice problems to integrate what you've just learned. Any questions?"
"Uh... okay." Upon hearing the other person's words, Li Xuanyu instantly snapped out of her daze and nodded obediently.
An hour later, Bai Yuze stopped, and Li Xuanyu below recorded the key points and notes from the previous lesson.
He wrote down a huge amount of notes, which seemed very serious.
Bai Yuze withdrew his gaze. The brief contact had given him a general understanding of Li Xuanyu. Influenced by her junior high school education, she liked to memorize things by rote, but she didn't have much understanding or thorough knowledge.
But it's too early to say for sure; we'll have to wait and see what feedback Xiaoqing gives her.
Li Xuanyu rested for about ten minutes before attending the second class.
Bai Youqing sat in her brother's seat. When she saw this girl who was about the same age as her, she was a little embarrassed at first.
But after a few minutes, she got into the flow.
Thanks to her frequent tutoring of other students at school, one-on-one tutoring is not a big problem for her now.
An hour passed, and Bai Youqing's mouth was dry from talking.
She wasn't a teacher after all; she couldn't grasp the key points and tried to impart all her knowledge to the other person.
Bai Yuzhe immediately took two glasses of water from the side, handing one to Xiaoqing and the other to Xiaoyu. It was the first time he had seen his younger sister teach someone else, and to be honest, she did have some talent.
Li Xuanyu took the water and sincerely thanked Bai Yuze and Bai Youqing.
During the lesson just now, Li Xuanyu enjoyed learning because she found that she could understand what the other person was saying. However, the problem-solving methods taught by the teacher at school were completely different from the problem-solving methods she had in mind.
Over time, this plunged her into a prolonged period of self-doubt.
Now that she has finished her studies, all she can think about is learning; this is probably the level of dedication she's reached.
"Okay, in the future, if you're sure you'll have time on a certain day, just let me know in advance via WeChat. If you need any tutoring for any subject, you can also tell me, and I'll find a tutor for that subject to tutor you online."
"Ah... Brother Xiaoze, thank you so much." Li Xuanyu suddenly felt a little envious of the girl next to Bai Yuze. If only he were her brother.
Sitting to the side, Bai Youqing instantly noticed the hint of envy and jealousy in Li Xuanyu's eyes, and a strong sense of crisis immediately arose in her heart.
Okay, so my brother is here to give you a lesson, but you're trying to steal him from me...
"How's it going? Get ready to eat."
"Uncle Li, I've been smelling the delicious aroma coming from the kitchen since early this morning. I've been waiting for you to say that." Bai Yuze stood up, tidied up the books on the table, and put them aside with a smile.
"Haha, Xiaoze is still so good at talking."
"Of course, otherwise we would have starved to death on the streets back then."
The two girls exchanged a glance after hearing the conversation, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.
Was my brother a homeless child?
Did Xiaoze Ge ever live as a homeless person before?
They had hoped to hear more gossip, but unfortunately the two only chatted briefly before going to the kitchen to serve the dishes, which left them both very disappointed.
However, the initial awkwardness between the two had disappeared, and they began to talk about each other's schools, complaining about the shortcomings of their own schools and envying each other's schools.
As soon as Bai Yuzhe entered the kitchen, Uncle Li grabbed his hand, his face haggard and bitter, and asked in a low voice, "Xiaoze, tell me the truth, can my daughter catch up with her grades?"
Since his mother left, my heart has been completely devoted to her, fearing she would go hungry or cold in the future. But no matter how much I protect her, it will only be for a little over ten years.
"Uncle Li, don't worry, Xiaoyu's foundation is still there, it won't be difficult to catch up. Uncle Li, you're just worrying unnecessarily. I think Xiaoyu is of good character, you'll have a long and happy life ahead of you."
Bai Yuzhe looked at Uncle Li's graying temples, his eyes stinging with tears. He had experienced this kind of fatherly love from Bai Xingjian.
Pity the parents of the world.
"That's good, that's good. I'll leave the rest to you, Xiaoze. I still have some savings..." Uncle Li said, reaching into his bag to take something out.
Bai Yuze's expression changed, and he said very solemnly, "Uncle Li, if you take this out, I'll grab Xiaoqing right now and leave without looking back."
"..."
In the endless silence, Uncle Li stopped what he was doing and said with a wry smile, "It's because I've become worldly."
Bai Yuze didn't say anything, picked up the bowl of food and walked out. His motto in life has always been to repay kindness with kindness and avenge wrongs with wrongs.
At least in this world, he has always adhered to this principle.
At the dinner table, adults chatted about adult things, and children chatted about children's things, without disturbing each other.
"Uncle Li, I saw the breakfast shop was already open when I came over this morning. How's business?"
"To be honest, it's not very good. Most people just come to try it out of curiosity, and a few orders are placed through food delivery platforms. In the past few days, we haven't even made back our costs. The noodle shop is the only one supporting the breakfast shop. Sigh."
"It's alright, Uncle Li. They say life is unpredictable, like the saying goes, 'the big intestine wraps the small intestine.' Who can say what will happen tomorrow?"
"Xiaoze, then I'll take your good wishes."
The adults talked about everyday matters and business, while the children talked about strange and unusual stories.
"Xiaoqing, do you know? There have been eight strange tales circulating in our school for a long time. I heard that some students tried to find out if they were true or not. But without exception, they all disappeared."
"Oh? Tell me, what kinds of ghost stories are they?"
"The first thing is something many students have heard: every night at midnight, a strange, eerie scream can be heard from a corner of the school."
The second issue is that medicines are constantly going missing from the school clinic for no apparent reason, but no one is seen on the security cameras.
Thirdly, the principal's office door was always tightly closed and never opened.
Fourthly, there's a name on the academic leaderboard that's always first in the grade, yet no one has ever seen her face. She's incredibly mysterious, as if she never existed...
"Were there any casualties?" Bai Youqing asked.
In the past, she might have been scared, but now, she's only excited.
"No, but there are a few female transfer students who, according to others, saw something they shouldn't have seen and went insane."
Li Xuanyu thought for a while, then shook her head and said.
"Oh." Hearing that no one was injured or killed, Bai Youqing didn't take it too seriously.
After listening, Bai Yuzhe silently kept it in mind.
Changya High School may be slightly inferior to Qiuyuan No.1 High School, but it is still one of the top key high schools in Yeqiu City, ranking among the top five.
