It wasn’t unusual for someone to ask if one person likes another person but, in a haunted classroom setting like this and with a female ghost asking this question, it was very strange and completely outside of Cheng Zhi Chu’s expectations. Even Ou Yang and the others were surprised and for a moment they had forgotten about their fear.

Bai Yi looked over at the corpse-like female teacher and gently raised his eyebrow.

Even if he didn’t know why she had asked this question, he hooked up the corner of his lips and answered without hesitation: “I do. I like Zhi Chu.”

At the same time, he looked over at Cheng Zhi Chu sitting next to him and gave him a smile.

Faced with such a loving gaze, Cheng Zhi Chu felt his heart skip a beat. His ears turned red and he couldn’t help but bow his head. The thoughts in his mind at this moment was a complete mess.

What’s going on……….?

Cheng Zhi Chu still remembered the special requirements for this side task. When they answered a question, their answer cannot violate the instance setting and it cannot violate their reality circumstances.

After Bai Yi said that he likes him, the female ghost didn’t look like she intended to punish Bai Yi so it would mean that Bai Yi really does like him………. That is to say, was Bai Yi able to answer the question successfully because liking someone as a friend can also be considered as “like”?

Although he felt that this probably was the case but for a moment Cheng Zhi Chu couldn’t help but think of something ——– What if Bai Yi really does like him?

…………Impossible. He’s being too narcissistic.

How can Bai Yi like him?!

Cheng Zhi Chu’s mind was a mess. He quickly shook his head to dispel the thought. He felt that he was being too self-absorbed. How could he have these kinds of thoughts? This is on par to slapping Bai Yi in the face.

Stop thinking nonsense.

Bai Yi definitely only likes him as a friend. Even if this was the case, he should be content with it. At least Bai Yi is willing to see him as a friend………

As he tried to convince himself internally, Cheng Zhi Chu felt that he should be feeling happy but for some reason he felt a little disappointed.

“……………”

Hearing Bai Yi’s answer, the female teacher’s expression didn’t change. As usual, it was the dull look.

She fiddled with the computer on the podium and the lights in the front of the room suddenly went out. The projector on the ceiling lit up to reveal an image on the wall.

Everyone looked at the image. For Ou Yang who sat in the second row especially, his face turned pale.

What was displayed was the image of a paused video.  At this moment, it showed Bai Yi, Cheng Zhi Chu and Ou Yang in their teenaged appearance. ChengZhi Chu wore the school uniform while Bai Yi and Ou Yang wore a basketball uniform. The setting was the school field.

The sky was dark and the lights around the school were already lit up. However, what was strange was that, despite the poor lighting, the image was very clear. It was as if it was not recorded and it was instead something that someone had seen with their own eyes.

The teacher played the video.

“…….I am really grateful to Senior Bai Yi. If it wasn’t for you helping me, I wouldn’t know how long it would have taken me to find it.”
