Just Want to Be His Lover - Chapter 21.3

There were a series of knocks on the door. After confirming that they weren’t able to come in, Gu Yanshu leaned back against the door, releasing a deep breath.

And then, his gaze fell on the hand that was holding Shen Jue’s hand.

He coldly dropped Shen Jue’s hand, then pulled his own hand back.

Shen Jue chuckled, “Didn’t you say that you weren’t afraid?”

Gu Yanshu was expressionless, “I was never scared.”

He’s putting on a strong front.

Shen Jue nodded, “Okay. Unfortunately, I’m scared, so can you take a look at the cubicles?”

I’ll go take a look. What’s the big deal?

Gu Yanshu didn’t move anymore.

Shen Jue continued to cover his eyes, then turned him around, “Wait for me outside.”

Then, he walked out and closed the door of the cubicle.

The moment the cubicle’s door was closed, the bathroom was suddenly lit up in a red light, and a mournful female voice sounded.

“Child, my child, give my child back to me!”

Gu Yanshu was so scared that he shivered and took a step back, touching the basin in the bathroom. The sound of water flowing sounded from behind him, and when he turned around, he was looking directly in the face of a female ghost with long hair, whose face was disfigured and had blood flowing down her face!

He was stunned. In the next moment, the female ghost smashed the glass, causing a loud bang, and climbed out!

“Shen Jue!”

Gu Yanshu briskly walked towards the third cubicle and pulled the door open.

And then, all he saw was Shen Jue pulling out from the toilet bowl a bloody blob that looked like rotting flesh.

It had a nose, eyes, and limbs. It was a…

Newly formed foetus.

Gu Yanshu turned around, and unwittingly retched.

Yet, when he just turned around, a female ghost, whose bloodless face that looked like it had been destroyed by acid, stood before his eyes, and she reached her hands out to strangle him, “Return my child to me!”

“Don’t come over!!!”

Gu Yanshu finally couldn’t hold himself back, as a shrill left his throat that was so high that caused even the female ghost to be in a daze.

Shen Jue used this opportunity to throw the child at her, “Take it, it’s your kid.”

The female ghost hadn’t even recovered from Gu Yanshu’s screaming attack when she was tossed a bloody thing, and was shocked.

Before she could pick it up, Shen Jue suddenly yelled, “Ahhhh!!!”

“Ahhhhh!! What’s the matter?!! I didn’t scare you!!” The female ghost’s voice was shrilly.

Shen Jue chuckled, “Nothing much, I just screamed casually, helping someone else to scare you.”

Ghost: “?”

“You can crawl back now”.

Ghost: “??”

“Do you need me to send you back?”

Ghost: “???”

The female ghost hugged her baby and slid back smoothly into the mirror.

She Jue took off the prop gloves that were placed in a partition, as he turned to look at Gu Yanshu, “Not bad, you can hit the three high notes [1] so easily. This scream is rather good.”

Gu Yanshu’s tiny face was already ashen.

He pushed Shen Jue and walked out of the cubicle. He noticed that the corner of the bathroom had lit up, and there was an outline of a door.

Gu Yanshu seemed to want to prove that he really wasn’t scared.

Without any hesitation, he pushed the door open.

However, once he pushed it open, a skeleton in a medical coat and bleeding from his face pouched out, almost hitting Gu Yanshu’s face.

Gu Yanshu instinctively retreated a step back, and fell into Shen Jue’s embrace.

And immediately pushed him away.

Shen Jue asked, “Do you want to walk first?”

Gu Yanshu remained frozen on the spot.

Shen Jue asked again, “Then, I’ll go first?”

Gu Yanshu’s face was impassive, “Mmm.”

“Sure,” Shen Jue chuckled softly, “Then you’ll follow behind me to protect me.”

As he said it, he stood in front of Gu Yanshu and kicked that skeleton away. He then shielded Gu Yanshu as they walked forward.

This room should be a laboratory; it was filled with frightening skeletons and rotting human specimens.

And it was filled with traps everywhere. When they were careless for a moment, a leg, an arm, or even a cracked skull would fall from the ceiling.

Fortunately, Shen Jue was blocking him in front, so all of these things didn’t touch Gu Yanshu at all.

Gu Yanshu followed behind Shen Jue obediently, but the distance between them increasingly shortened.

It was only till they reached the entrance of the lab that they picked up something that resembled a diary.

Gu Yanshu bent down to pick it up.

Instantly, the room was shrouded in red light, and the alarms rang. The specimens that weren’t moving initially became alive and rushed towards them. Among them, the fastest one had already caught Gu Yanshu’s shoulder.

Gu Yanshu’s face instantly paled.

Shen Jue turned and hit the ghost’s hand away, then dragged Gu Yanshu and ran outside.

Gu Yanshu was simply dragged along, and the diary was still in his hand.

The group of specimens continued chasing them.

However, the door in front of them was locked with a code.

Shen Jue shouted, “Look at the diary quickly and find out what the passcode is!”

“Alright.”

Gu Yanshu read it as he ran.

“The Diary of the chemistry teaching assistant

I like all things that are beautiful, and I want to make them into specimens.

There’s a new girl who just transferred over. She’s a loner but she’s beautiful, and I like her a lot.

She seems to be constantly bullied. I’ve seen her cry alone in the classroom, and I consoled her then.

I think I’m in love with her.

Today is 23rd September, her eighteenth birthday. I am preparing a present for her.“

“How many numbers?”

“Four.”

“0923.”

Beep, beep, beep, beep.

Four quick clicks, and Shen Jue pulled Gu Yanshu as they hid into the room and closed the door shut, managing to lock the specimen closest to them outside.

Just a little bit more, and it would probably have come in.
