Chapter 1180: Ji Mingshu Seeing a Ghost
??
When the other students heard the teacher’s instruction, they subconsciously sat back down. Chi Shuyan took advantage of the fact that no one else was paying attention to burn a talisman in front of her eyes. She originally thought that she would see something possessing Jiang Tongle, but when she looked again, she saw nothing except for a strange black aura.
Chi Shuyan couldn’t help but frown, deep in thought.
The three teachers on the side confirmed that Jiang Tongle was just unconscious. After wiping himself, Chen Jin turned around and saw that everyone else was sitting down; only Chi Shuyan was motionless and staring at Jiang Tongle expressionlessly. He was a bit surprised and thought that she was frightened and worried about Jiang Tongle. He hurriedly said, “Shuyan, it’s fine. Hurry and go back to your seat!”
Old Yu also saw that Chi Shuyan was standing motionless on the side. To be honest, he now felt more and more that this student was quite strange. However, Old Yu didn’t think much of it. He thought the same as Chen Jin. He was about to agree with Chen Jin, when Cai Xuanqiao frowned and said to Chi Shuyan in a bad tone, “Why are you still standing here? What? Are you gloating over Tong Le’s bad luck?”
Cai Xuanqiao couldn’t be blamed for thinking this. Speaking of which, she liked Jiang Tongle the most in the class. Seeing that something had happened to this child, Cai Xuanqiao was already in a bad mood. In addition, it was Tongle who had told her about this student swindling money. As a petty person herself, Cai Xuanqiao wasn’t surprised that this student would take her anger out on Tongle.
It was just that this student surnamed Chi was too stupid and so obviouse about it. What other reason could she have for standing there, except to gloat?
As soon as Cai Xuanqiao finished speaking, Chen Jin and Old Yu frowned tightly. Chen Jin’s eyes immediately fell on Chi Shuyan’s face, afraid that she would be hurt because of Cai Xuanqiao’s words. Moreover, she said that in front of so many students. Where was her virtue as a teacher?
Although Chen Jin didn’t get along with Cai Xuanqiao, their conflicts had never carried over into public. The other party would occasionally mock him, but he didn’t take it seriously. He also didn’t really have any ill feelings toward Cai Xuanqiao, but when he heard her words, Chen Jin frowned tightly.
What did she mean by gloating?
Why didn’t it seem like that to him?
It was rare for Chen Jin’s expression to be so cold. He was about to say a few words on behalf of Old Zhang’s student, but Old Yu couldn’t take it and beat him to it. “Teacher Cai, what are you saying? You can’t say such nonsense. Shuyan and Tong Le are fellow students. How can they gloat over each other’s predicament?”
Seeing Cai Xuanqiao’s unsightly face, Old Yu couldn’t really not give her face. After all, she had a good relationship with Director Huang. He continued, “Old Chen and I know that you’re worried about this student, but as the saying goes, haste makes waste. This child should be fine. We’ll send her to the hospital later!”
Cai Xuanqiao’s face softened a little at the latter half of Old Yu’s words, but it was still very unsightly. She deliberately snorted at Chi Shuyan.
Chi Shuyan treated her like she was invisible, her unblinking eyes still fixed on Jiang Tongle. For some reason, even if she didn’t see anything strange about Jiang Tongle, the impression the latter gave Chi Shuyan at that moment wasn’t good, and even felt a little dangerous.
Seeing that Shuyan still didn’t move, Chen Jin was afraid that she would cause trouble again. He sighed, got up, patted her shoulder and said gently, “Student Jiang is fine. Don’t worry, go back to your seat first!”
At that moment, Cai Xuanqiao asked Old Yu to help place Jiang Tongle next to her. Old Yu immediately nodded. After all, this student was a girl. It wouldn’t be good for him and Old Chen to be the ones to tend to her. It was better to let Cai Xuanqiao take care of her.
Seeing Old Yu put Jiang Tongle next to Cai Xuanqiao, Chi Shuyan nodded at Chen Jin. “Okay, Teacher, be careful!”
After saying that, she returned to her seat in the last row. It just so happened that except for a few people, everyone mostly sat in their original seats. Ji Mingshu and Yu Bo sat next to Chi Shuyan again.
As soon as Chi Shuyan sat down, Ji Mingshu suddenly gripped her hand tightly. Her face was pale and her forehead was covered in cold sweat. She stared fixedly at Chi Shuyan and wanted to speak, but couldn’t utter a word for a long time. Instead, cold sweat trickled down her forehead and cheeks. The air conditioning was clearly on, but it felt like a scorching summer day to her. She was covered in sweat and her palms were sticky as she held Chi Shuyan’s hand.
Chi Shuyan took a closer look and realized that it wasn’t just Ji Mingshu’s hands that were trembling; her whole body seemed to be shaking. Her eyes were filled with extreme fear, as if she had suffered a huge blow. Seeing how Ji Mingshu was soaked, she must have also fallen into the river.
Chi Shuyan was really curious to know what just happened and what Ji Mingshu had encountered.
“What do you want to say to me?” Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes. As she spoke, she examined Ji Mingshu in front of her and realized that the original death calamity had passed. The cadaveric qi had dissipated a lot, but the black qi on her forehead was still very dense. Seeing that Ji Mingshu didn’t speak for a long time, Chi Shuyan said, “Where’s the talisman I gave you? Let me see it!”
Although Ji Mingshu didn’t reply, she immediately took out the talisman from her pocket and gave it to Chi Shuyan. When she took it out, however, Ji Mingshu saw that the originally bright yellow talisman had turned to charred powder.
Ji Mingshu stared blankly at the charred powder in her hand, and the horror in her eyes grew. She suddenly collapsed and cried. She didn’t dare cry loudly, but softly. She looked at Chi Shuyan as if the latter was her last hope. She grabbed Chi Shuyan’s hand tightly and wept bitterly. “Shuyan, I saw a ghost! I saw a ghost!”
