In the music room, Lin Feiran sat on the piano stool while looking at the music score.

This was the music for his solo piano performance at the school’s arts festival one week later. Since starting high school, Lin Feiran’s everyday piano practices were greatly reduced. Because of the recent school transfer and the new environment, he was not able to touch the piano for almost a month. The music that he had previously been able to play with both eyes closed now felt unfamiliar.

Lin Feiran reviewed the score again. Laying the book flat on the music stand, he prepared to play the piano.

At this time, a pleasantly deep voice flew to his ears: “Our school’s Fourth Culture and Arts Festival begins today. Culture forges our school’s spirit, arts…”

Lin Feiran couldn’t resist glancing at where the voice came from.

In the front of the music room, a male and a female student stood on a platform. The female student was called w.a.n.g Yao, the neighbouring cla.s.s’ cla.s.s president. Beautiful, gentle, and eloquent, she was chosen to become the arts festival’s female presenter. Standing next to her was the male presenter, Lin Feiran’s archnemesis, Gu Kaifeng.

No, to be clear, Lin Feiran one-sidedly decided to make Gu Kaifeng his archnemesis.

Gu Kaifeng himself seemed to not know about this……

Lin Feiran secretly stared at Gu Kaifeng.

He wondered what Gu Kaifeng, that second-year high school student, ate in order to grow to 184cm tall. Yet unlike the usual lanky bamboo pole-like physique, Gu Kaifeng’s body was well proportioned with decent amount of muscles. With his pleasingly handsome face, and due to his physique looking extremely dazzling while wearing the school uniform, he was publicly known as the most attractive boy in school.

You can still grow more at 17 years old. Some people grow earlier while some people are late bloomers. Wait until we’re 20 years old and let’s see who’s taller! 175cm Lin Feiran thought angrily as he absent-mindedly started to play the piano score in front of him.

Lin Feiran transferred to the boarding school a month ago, during the start of his second year. This came about because his father was sent to work at the company’s branch in Europe, leaving Lin Feiran without anybody taking care of him. His mother wanted to stay at the old house. The teachers and the quality of education in that city clearly could not compare to the ones in Lin Feiran’s current school. As a result, Father Lin put his foot down, determined to send off the pampered-since-childhood-young-master Lin Feiran to the boarding school.

In the beginning, Lin Feiran didn’t take changing schools seriously. He even thought that going to a boarding school would be a fresh new experience. He imagined that living alone without parents must feel like heaven. However, he quickly realized that he was wrong.

Because his roommate was Gu Kaifeng.

Gu Kaifeng – the overall-pretty-good guy – had a handsome face, was good at sports, was multi-talented, and had a rich family. If not for his personality that was rather cold to strangers, you can say that he was perfect.

The thing that made Li Feiran most bitter was the 4x400m relay race that he partic.i.p.ated in. He carelessly fell down while running. Although he immediately got up and tried his best to run while enduring the pain, he was still surpa.s.sed by some people. However, when he pa.s.sed the baton to Gu Kaifeng, Gu Kaifeng unexpectedly caught up to three people in one breath.

n.o.body blamed Lin Feiran after the race was over. Two enthusiastic girls even approached him for the first time, giving him water and medicine and helping him treat his wounds. But seeing everyone treat Gu Kaifeng like a hero made Lin Feiran feel like he was compared to and found lacking.……

Since elementary school, the person who was always the most popular in school sports compet.i.tions was me, ah!

——In short, he felt all kinds of annoyed.

Lin Feiran bit his lips, absent-mindedly playing the piano and making a mistake.

The bell rang, signifying the end of the cla.s.s. Lin Feiran anxiously stopped playing the piano.

This was the afternoon’s last self-study cla.s.s. To prepare for the arts festival, the teachers gave lots of support to the two presenters and to Lin Feiran, who needed to practice the piano. Every afternoon during the last self-study cla.s.s, they came to the music room to practice. Lin Feiran played the piano while Gu Kaifeng and w.a.n.g Yao practiced the actors’ lines, neither party bothering one another.

As the piano melody stopped, w.a.n.g Yao’s clear and charming voice could be heard: “Kaifeng, are you going to go to the canteen?”

Gu Kaifeng’s tone was indifferent: “I will go later.”

Lin Feiran didn’t think that Gu Kaifeng really wanted to go later. It must be because he just didn’t want to go together with w.a.n.g Yao. According to his observation, Gu Kaifeng seemed to be completely immune to beautiful girls.

——When Lin Feiran was barely transferred to the school for a week, he was relaxing near the doorway when a beautiful girl from another cla.s.s suddenly ran towards him and shyly gave him a lovely-looking envelope. Lin Feiran was ecstatic; he thought that as a result of his endless charm, somebody already wrote a love letter to him despite only transferring in several days ago. He felt very proud of himself and smiled, asking a question that he already knew the answer for: “Who is this for?”

The other girl spoke with a red face: “I’m sorry to trouble you, but please give this to Gu Kaifeng. Thank you.”

Lin Feiran who waited for the girl to answer with “you”: “……”

At his previous school, Lin Feiran was also at the level of “most handsome boy at school”. He was not tall and he was quite slim, but he was very handsome. With his delicate facial features, he could simply be described as “beautiful”. When he was little, he was always mistaken as a little girl. Beautiful young boys like him were usually considered very popular at school. But compared to Gu Kaifeng, the handsome and masculine Adonis, Lin Feiran really was a bit lacking. At least for boyfriend material, girls still prefer Gu Kaifeng’s type a lot more.

Lin Feiran was full of anger. Grabbing the letter, he returned to the cla.s.s and threw it at Gu Kaifeng. He then went back to his seat. Both people’s seats were only separated by an aisle, so Lin Feiran clearly saw Gu Kaifeng’s indifferent look while casually throwing the love letter in his desk.

Lin Feiran couldn’t hold it in anymore and he was not done dealing with him, blurting out: “Are you just going to put it there?”

Gu Kaifeng glanced at him, asking: “Should I throw it on the floor?”

Lin Feiran: “……”

Lin Feiran: “No, what I meant is you didn’t look at it all?”

Gu Kaifeng raised his eyebrows, looking at Lin Feiran’s face and asking: “The one from the girl?”

Lin Feiran’s thought was that this was bulls.h.i.t, but his lips were saying: “Right, the very pretty one.”

Gu Kaifeng: “Then, no.”

At that time, Lin Feiran didn’t think anything of it. But afterwards it somehow felt weird when he thought about it again. However, his relationship with Gu Kaifeng had been gradually getting worse, to the point of not speaking with each other. Asking about this kind of thing is out of question, so Lin Feiran could only keep his doubts to himself.

In the music room, the rejected w.a.n.g Yao felt a little unsatisfied. She remained in the cla.s.sroom, asking a question in Lin Feiran’s direction: “That’s right, did you guys hear the story about this music room?”

Gu Kaifeng coldly kept his head down, turning the script’s page and not making a sound.

The atmosphere was a little awkward. Lin Feiran quickly responded: “What story?”

w.a.n.g Yao spat it out: “It is said that a person died in this music room. At night, if you stay here, maybe you can see something you shouldn’t see.”

Lin Feiran wanted to contribute to the conversation, but Gu Kaifeng laughed, head still looking down at his book, and said: “Since ancient times, there are 108 billion people who have died on earth, people have died pretty much everywhere.”

w.a.n.g Yao: “……”

Lin Feiran: “……”

Lin Feiran turned his head. Facing away from Gu Kaifeng, he gave Gu Kaifeng a huge eyeroll.

Will it kill you to not act like a pretentious p.r.i.c.k?

w.a.n.g Yao went to the canteen. Gu Kaifeng leaned on the bottom of the podium, head in the script. Lin Feiran started to play the piano.

Halfway through playing the music, Gu Kaifeng suddenly threw the script on top of the podium. Without saying a word to Lin Feiran, he turned his head and left the room with both hands on his pockets.

That’s right, Gu Kaifeng also somehow didn’t like Lin Feiran.

There were two main reasons for this.

First, because Gu Kaifeng’s personality was rather independent, he didn’t like to mix with people. In addition, his father donated money to the school so the teachers heavily favored him, continuously letting Gu Kaifeng live in the dorm without a roommate. However, after Lin Feiran transferred, the school didn’t have excess beds. They could only put Lin Feiran in Gu Kaifeng’s room, disturbing Gu Kaifeng’s one-man world.

This was actually not the main reason as Gu Kaifeng was not a narrow-minded person. At the start he also thought to get along peacefully with Lin Feiran, but Lin Feiran, whose limelight had been s.n.a.t.c.hed and was feeling like it was unfair, usually acted negatively towards Gu Kaifeng. Gu Kaifeng was also not stupid. Although he did not know the exact reason, he could figure out that the boy was full of hostility towards him. As a result, he gradually ignored Lin Feiran. Although the two were in the same grade and lived in the same dorm room, they were not on speaking terms, mutually treating the other as if he didn’t exist.

Once Gu Kaifeng left the music room, Lin Feiran stopped playing.

He tidied up the music book and put it inside the piano stool before hurriedly leaving the music room, acting as if somebody was chasing him from behind.

Talking about this is quite embarra.s.sing as Lin Feiran didn’t think of himself as a coward. Many people were afraid of bugs, snakes, or mice; Lin Feiran wasn’t afraid of any of those. When he was a kid, he grew up in a village and was immune to those small things. However, he had one Achilles’ heel: he was afraid of ghosts. Just now, w.a.n.g Yao rambled about a story that was half-true and half-false, but Lin Feiran didn’t dare to stay in the music cla.s.s alone.

When Lin Feiran was small, he was raised in the village by his grandfather. His grandfather’s profession, if seen through modern lens, can definitely be characterized as a fraudster. The years living with him were bizarre, but he could not see what real skills his grandfather had. At that time, his grandfather’s favorite hobby was to tell Lin Feiran ghost stories. The stories were incredibly realistic, and the young Lin Feiran was full of curiosity. Although he was extremely afraid of ghosts, he always forced himself to listen to these stories. When he was growing up, he became even more afraid of ghosts and until now still did not change.

Please tell me what do you guys think, because the story is going to get funnier and funnier, especially after the ghosts start to appear xD

They were even more shameless than the MC and ML! Some of the female ghosts were feeling up Gu Kaifeng’s abs in the washroom!! LOLOL ?

EDIT: Please feel free to point out grammar mistakes! It’ll probably take at least a day for me to get back to you though.
