Chapter 216: Rumors Flying In The School!

Mae Whan somehow dragged her feet away from the dorm room and walked for a while in a daze. She was too shocked to say anything. Somehow, she felt as if lightning was struck on her head as she continued to stand and be electrocuted.

Nam Ji, the person who she had fallen for earlier, was not only in love with someone, but the man he loved was also a ghost! And the worst thing was that the ghost, as per her boyfriend, was a famous swimmer in his time!

She couldn't digest such strange and out-of-the-world information in her heart anymore. So she instantly walked over to the library that was already dark and decided to find the clues about this ghost. She figured that if there were indeed a certain swimmer who had died in the school in the past, then she would believe her boyfriend's words.

At this time, she was still confused as heck. She didn't want to believe what she just noticed in the dorm. So after searching for quite a while, she finally found a newspaper that mentioned an incident about a swimmer dying in the old swimming pool.

After that day, the students complained that they heard the crying voice of a boy from that place. So to stop the rumors from spreading further, the authorities had decided to seal that old swimming pool.

A realization stuck in her head. She had remembered that when she had just arrived in this school, her roommates had given her a dare to go to that haunted place alone. She had gone there, and after coming back, she had ridiculed them, saying that place wasn't haunted at all!

But it turned out, the ghost that was supposed to haunt her in that swimming pool had already been following Nam Ji! So if she had hurried her steps, she would have been the one to find the ghost instead! And she would have been coached by that expert swimmer!

All of a sudden, a seed of jealousy sprouted in her heart. Not only Tyler stole that excellent ghost coach from her, but the ghost also took away her first love! So the ex-female lead was burning in negative emotions as she walked out of the library with a piece of paper in her hand. She crumbled that paper with her fingers and glared in the direction where Tyler lived.

From now on, she would make sure to make Nam Ji and that ghost's life a living hell!

After a month of break, when Tyler went to his new class for another semester, he saw everyone looking in his direction with a strange gaze. He tilted his head before it clicked him. Was the plot already moving forward? The ex-female lead must have spread a rumor about him and Ja Seok across the school.

When he thought of this, his mood lifted instantly. He even hummed a tune that his senior had taught him in the cat world and sat on the front seat before placing the bag on the desk.

The other students saw this kind of expression on Nam Ji's face and were instantly stunned. They gulped and thought that perhaps what Mae Whan had said was correct. If this person weren't followed by a ghost who was also his boyfriend, why would this person change so much?!

So the reason why Nam Ji changed so much in the previous semester was just that this person had gotten in a relationship with a ghost! They all instantly trembled thinking of that.

Just how courageous was this black-haired youth to be able to go out with a ghost?! They all kept their distance from this boy and talked to each other in a low voice.

Of course, Tyler wasn't disturbed by this kind of behavior. He wanted everyone to think that he was being loved by a ghost out of everyone so that the arcs could move forward in peace. At this time, he wasn't thinking of the bad ending of this world. He knew that he could still see his lover even after leaving this world. And the more he would gain his power. The higher were the chances of seeing his senior in the real world.

So he was even more motivated to finish this story with a high level of accuracy.

But there was someone who had been unhappy after seeing several frightened and unkind gazes being directed at his baby. He glared at every single student and moved closer to Tyler. "Should I teach them a lesson for treating you that way?"

This male lead didn't like the way they saw Tyler with their hateful and fearful gazes. His lover was a nice and adorable person. How could they even think about seeing him that way?! The male lead's eyes darkened at that, and he was just about to do something about it when he saw Tyler writing something at the back of his notebook. "Don't. It doesn't matter. What you think matters the most."

Ja Seok was stunned. He didn't think this human would talk so bluntly like that! He suddenly had the urge to push this person on this desk and continue to perform bed activities until late at night!

But somehow, he endured and pressed his lips together to suppress his boiling emotions. When Tyler wasn't looking, the ghost glanced back and glared at the entire sea of students behind him.

The poor and naive students suddenly felt a chill down their spines. Their surroundings became cold out of the blue even though it was summer. Some of them exchanged glances, and their faces paled.

This had to be the ghost that got angry at them! Even if some of them hadn't believed the rumors wholeheartedly, they didn't have any choice but to lower their heads and zip their mouths.

It should be true. The ghost was here and was angry just because they were talking badly about Tyler.

If not, why did the temperature around them drop to such a degree? And why did they all feel as if someone was glancing at them with killing intent?

A few students shivered and lowered their heads even more.
