Chapter 48 I want them all to die Part 2
“Gu Ye, where is the website that Xia Xiang mentioned? Why can’t I find it?” Zhao Pengyu searched the school intranet as he walked, but couldn’t find anything about it.
Gu Ye asked in disgust, “Why are you searching for that?”
“I’m just curious. Don’t you think it sounds stupid when you hear it? Some god can fulfill your wishes for no reason? It doesn’t sound like a good thing.”
Gu Ye smiled and said, “Even you know it’s not a good thing, so why are you looking for it? You don’t need to wish for anything anyway.”
Zhao Pengyu laughed happily, “Hahaha, yes. I am too superior, others would want to live like me.”
Gu Ye was even more disgusted, “This narcissist!”
The two bought their meal and found a corner to sit down when Yu Ze sent a message to Gu Ye: [Have you had lunch?]
Gu Ye smiled and replied: [I am eating now, how about you?]
Yu Ze: [Soon.]
Gu Ye: [I have a little daughter.]
Yu Ze: [?]
Gu Ye sent a photo to Yu Ze.
Yu Ze replied with a series of speechless dots.
Gu Ye was dissatisfied with the other party’s attitude and solemnly introduced: [She is made of human skin but has become spiritual. She can absorb resentment, and can make paper figures too.]
Yu Ze: [Don’t keep strange dolls.]
Gu Ye took a sip of the soup and thought to himself, ‘You are keeping a big one too at your side. It’s just that you don’t know it!’
Zhao Pengyu secretly observed Gu Ye’s expression and asked tentatively, “Are you in love?”
Gu Ye raised his eyebrows, “What?”
“Your expression looks like a fool in love.”
Gu Ye laughed dryly, “No, just cultivating feelings at the moment.”
Zhao Pengyu suddenly became energetic and asked excitedly, “Who is it? I haven’t heard you say anything about it. Was it someone from the internet?”
Gu Ye held up the soup guiltily, “No, we know each other in reality.”
Zhao Pengyu asked in a gossiping tone, “Which family’s young lady? Did your family set it up, or did you find the person yourself?”
Gu Ye explained awkwardly, “Not any family’s young lady, it hasn’t developed to that point yet. We are just trying out and we haven’t even made the relationship clear*.”
*as in nobody confesses or states that they are now boyfriends
Zhao Pengyu stole Gu Ye’s meat and ate it, “I really want to know who it is.”
Gu Ye took a deep breath, “No, you don’t want to know at all.”
The two of them continued chatting, but they didn’t know that the girl with her back to Gu Ye turned pale after hearing their conversation.
After the two of them had finished eating, they stood up, and it happened that the girl behind Gu Ye was also carrying her plate to leave. Neither of them expected it so they accidentally bumped into each other.
Gu Ye quickly said, “I’m sorry.”
“Yes, I’m sorry.” The girl also apologized. She had long, slightly curly hair and wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses with flat lenses, which just covered her beautiful eyes. She didn’t dare to look up at Gu Ye and shook her head hurriedly.
Gu Ye smiled and said, “You go first.”
The girl’s face turned red and she said squeakingly, “Gu Ye, thank you.”
“Ah?” Gu Ye didn’t know why she was thanking him.
The girl pushed up her glasses and blushed. She lowered her head slightly, her hair covering most of her face. “Thank you for last time too.”
“Last time?” Gu Ye asked doubtfully, “Have we met before?”
The girl raised her head, revealing half of her face that was covered previously. After staring at Gu Ye blankly for a few seconds, she suddenly said “I’m sorry” and ran away with the plate.
Gu Ye: “…”
Zhao Pengyu looked at this scene and asked gossipingly, “Tell me, where do you owe the love debt?”
Gu Ye frowned and didn’t remember until he was almost at the library, “Ah! I remembered it! I did her a favor before the college entrance examination. This girl was a bit soft-hearted and she was deceived by someone. Just now, her hair covered her face so the facial features are not visible, who can recognize her like that?”
Gu Ye wondered out loud, “Since when did she become so gloomy? She has become completely another person from previously. If only I could see her face clearly, maybe I could read her fortune.”
Zhao Pengyu shook his head, grinned, and dodged a meter away, “You are really terrible!”
Gu Ye sneered, “Then I will give you a fortune telling now so that you will have no secrets.”
Zhao Pengyu gave up within a second and said, “Father, please let me go.”
…
As soon as Li Jiatong arrived at the door of the dormitory, she was stopped by two pretty-looking girls.
“Your courage is commendable, Li Jiatong. Looking at you acting like an honest person, I didn’t expect you to be so flirtatious. I heard that you struck up a conversation with Gu Ye at the cafeteria. What did Gu Ye tell you? Share it with us.”
“I didn’t.” Li Jiatong pushed up her glasses and gave a muffled answer. Then she walked away with her head lowered, and left quickly.
“Bah! I don’t know where she has the face (courage) to do that. Doesn’t she look in the mirror to see what she looks like? She looks as gloomy as a ghost. How can Gu Ye know her?”
The girl’s voice was not low so Li Jiatong heard it clearly. She froze, lowered her head, and clenched her fists tightly. She wanted to say it’s not like that, she didn’t mean to strike up a conversation with Gu Ye. She just wanted to say thank you to Gu Ye, thank him for helping her, thank him for being her spiritual support when she was in the most pain.
Gu Ye only helped her once, and she remembered Gu Ye’s smiling face. Especially after that incident, she accidentally saw Gu Ye’s photo somewhere and thought of his sunny smile. She suddenly felt that the dark world became brighter, giving her the courage to climb out of the abyss. She just regarded Gu Ye as her sunshine, and she was only grateful to Gu Ye. She didn’t have too many delusions.
She admitted that she liked him, and it hurt to hear the news that he might be in love, but she was self-aware and would not disturb him. She only wanted to watch him at the side secretly.
Li Jiatong hurriedly returned to the dormitory, and a girl who was reading a book asked her gossipingly, “I heard that you struck up a conversation with Gu Ye. The news has spread all over the campus forum.”
Li Jiatong gritted her teeth and shook her head. She was about to cry… she didn’t (struck up a conversation with Gu Ye).
The roommate advised Li Jiatong kindly, “Forget it. With Gu Ye’s background, Cinderella like us is impossible. His father will definitely find him a well-matched match.”
Li Jiatong shook her head and hid her hand in her pocket. She pinched her index finger hard with her thumb nail, which already produced blood marks. She said tremblingly, “I just…”
“I know that there are many girls in school who like him. Gu Ye is excellent in studies, has a good temper, and has a rich family. Who wouldn’t want to be the third young lady of the Gu family? But the reality is that Gu Ye does not join any clubs or group activities. He does not even live on campus, and I heard that his father bought him a villa in the neighborhood next door. With you like this, I think you shouldn’t get involved again, or you will be treated as a joke.”
Li Jiatong couldn’t quibble, and she didn’t have the strength to quibble. Ever since she was a child, she had been accustomed to taking the blame, accustomed to other people’s cynicism and slander. No one would believe anything she said. Sitting on her bed and looking at the photos on her phone, Li Jiatong posted a message in Moments that was only visible to her with tears in her eyes. This was the only way she could express her inner thoughts: I just want to thank him, I don’t want to be his girlfriend. I’m so dirty and I don’t deserve it, I know it.
…
On Saturday afternoon, after 2 classes, Zhao Pengyu put his arms around Gu Ye’s neck and said, “There’s a monthly basketball game today. Our department and the law department next door are having a match. Come and cheer me on.”
Gu Ye slapped Zhao Pengyu’s paws off in disgust, “Talk to Father properly. Don’t hold hands or loop shoulders.”
Zhao Pengyu turned around helplessly and sat on Gu Ye’s table, “Just go! There will be more girls watching if you come to cheer for me.”
Gu Ye’s mouth twitched, what the hell is this reason for?
Zhao Pengyu couldn’t help but hug Gu Ye’s arm and drag him away, “Whether us brothers can get out of singlehood or not, it depends on you today!”
“You can’t rely solely on me to find a wife,” Gu Ye said seriously, “I’m not the father of all of you.”
Zhao Pengyu was so angry that he just wanted to jump up and punch Gu Ye!
Gu Ye arrived at the stadium and was pinned down in the auditorium by Zhao Pengyu, “You sit here and cheer for our team. You are not allowed to sneak away.”
Gu Ye inexplicably feels like a mascot.
Not long after, all the seats behind Gu Ye were filled by girls. As the freshman representative, Gu Ye is the leader of the students in this grade. He has to participate in any activities on behalf of the freshman students. But Gu Ye is too lazy, he is not interested in anything. Except for being selected as the flag bearer during the military training report and showing his face publicly, it was difficult to see him after that. This time Gu Ye appeared in the stadium, which really attracted a lot of people to watch. Some of the more lively ones directly asked Gu Ye for his WeChat ID.
Gu Ye said embarrassedly, “I’m sorry, I forgot to bring my mobile phone.”
“Oh, what a pity! Gu Ye, can you really see ghosts?”
“Gu Ye, can you read faces (face-reading)?”
Gu Ye smiled slightly, “Looks are born from the heart. If there is no evil in the heart, they are all beautiful women.”
“What you say makes sense, such a Buddhist temperament!”
“Gu Ye, here. Have some water.”
“I have snacks here, do you want to eat them?”
People from the basketball team were stunned when they saw Gu Ye surrounded by a group of beauties and having food and drinks from a distance. Beauties, do you only look at the audience? Can’t you see how handsome we are?
Li Jiatong looked at the girls surrounding Gu Ye from a distance, her eyes hidden behind the lenses full of envy.
At this moment, Li Jiatong was suddenly tapped hard on the shoulder. Li Jiatong turned around and the girl who tapped her shoulder said jokingly, “Who are you looking at? Don’t think about your Cinderella dream. Also, you can help me do my duty tomorrow too. I’ll give you 50 yuan.”
Li Jiatong clenched her fists tightly. She bit her lips hard, and her eyes were red. Everyone looks down on her and thinks they can bully her if they have money! Is her life really so worthless?
“Hey, do you want to do it or not?”
Li Jiatong suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed the girl in front of her. The girl staggered, and Li Jiatong ran out of the gym quickly.
“You’re sick! Aren’t you just doing duty for others now? Why are you acting so noble now?”
Li Jiatong turned a deaf ear and ran out of the gym. She habitually took out his mobile phone to look at the photos hidden in the album. As soon as she opened it, a website suddenly popped up on the homepage: [Whatever your wishes are, as long as you are pious enough, the true God will fulfill them for you.]
Li Jiatong’s pupils shrank. As if she was possessed by an evil spirit, she clicked in without hesitation.
There is a black Buddha statue on the screen, and a black servant boy statue sitting next to him. The corners of their mouths are raised, and their eyes are half-open: [Poor child, leave your wish quickly, and the true God will help you.]
The tears that had been brimming in Li Jiatong’s eyes finally fell, and she quickly left a string of words with trembling fingers: [I want him to like me, I want to stand upright by his side, and shut up all those who look down on me! I want my adoptive father to die! I want my sister to die! I want everyone who bullied me to die! All die!!!]

The author has something to say:
Some said that they are scared to read the updates at night, but they shouldn’t be scared of updates now, right? The sun is so hot, and Gu Ye protects us, so we don’t have to be afraid!
Actually, I don’t think what I wrote is scary. It’s not scary at all. You little girls are too timid. Oh, okay, come into my arms (expectation.jpg)
