Chu Xiaonan was in a good mood.
Her best friend, Lin Qiong, had been on leave for half a month and had finally returned today. Other than some inexplicable estrangement and unfamiliarity, it was as if everything had returned to the past.
Chu Xiaonan was very concerned about Lin Qiong.
Because this was her best friend.
In school, she belonged to the gentle and dignified type of young lady from a rich family. Including her background as a rich child, she could be considered a young lady.
It was similar to many of the characters in anime.
Chu Xiaonan also had a hidden side, a side that most people did not like.
That side was only shown to the people closest to him.
Therefore, in front of Lin Qiong, she was much more open and straightforward.
However, Lin Qiong didn't mention where she had been for the past half a month or why she had taken half a month off. She didn't even send a message for more than ten days.
Clearly, there was something he was hiding from her.
Most girls had a strange mentality.
Although she was not the kind of person who liked to pry into other people's privacy, she was still a little unhappy.
Of course, this bit of unhappiness was harmless.
Very quickly, Chu Xiaonan adjusted his state of mind.
She had long forgotten about that subtle estrangement and unfamiliarity.
It was just a little strange.
After returning to school, Qiong became very introverted.
In just half a month, his personality had changed a lot.
What was going on…
Chu Xiaonan pulled Lin Qiong to the cafeteria. The two of them chatted and laughed as they talked about the interesting things that happened in school in the past half a month. Chu Xiaonan gradually relaxed.
Why did he care so much?
Didn't Little Qiong come back?
Chu Xiaonan did not like the food in the canteen.
However, she knew Lin Qiong's family background. He usually ate frugally and wouldn't always let a rich lady like her treat him.
Therefore, she could only accompany him to eat the rice bran and swallow the vegetables.
After placing their food on the table, Chu Xiaonan asked casually,""Qiong, I sent you a few messages. Why didn't you reply? Is the phone broken?"
"Yeah." Lin Qiong smiled.
"Aiya, you're not lively at all now. I'm not used to it.”
Chu Xiaonan sized Lin Qiong up.
A warm smile appeared on her beautiful face again.
"However, she's quite cute."
"Is that so…" Lin Qiong glanced at her.
His gaze was indescribably strange, deep, and mocking.
It seemed vivid, but it actually contained unimaginable malice.
However, Chu Xiaonan did not see that look.
Her phone rang. She lowered her head and took out her phone from her handbag as she stood up to answer the call.
"Who would call me at this time…hmm?”
"A call from Qiong?"
He took out his phone and glanced at the screen.
Chu Xiaonan looked at Lin Qiong strangely. The latter had his back facing her as he buried his head in his food.
What was going on?
"Did you lose your phone?"
" Someone picked up Qiong's phone. They're trying to confirm who the owner is…"
"It's alright…If she lost her phone, I don't know how long she would be sad. After all, this phone was a birthday gift from her brother.”
He curled his lips.
He didn't think too much about it.
Chu Xiaonan pressed the answer button.
A moment later, a solemn man's voice sounded.
You are…Chu Xiaonan?"
“……”
What was going on?
He called Qiong, but in the end, he was looking for him?
Chu Xiaonan subconsciously frowned,"Who are you?" Why are you looking for me?"
The man hesitated for a few seconds."I'm her brother. I don't know what's going on with you, but I can tell you that…Qiong passed away half a month ago.”
“？？？”
Chu Xiaonan could not help but widen his eyes.
……
……
"Hmm…"
"Oh…"
"I know…"
"Thank you."
Chu Xiaonan calmly hung up.
She was trying her best to control her voice and expression, trying her best to make herself look normal.
It was Lin Qiong's brother.
She knew this person. After all, Qiong would talk about her brother almost every day. Moreover, she had seen him when he came to school to attend the parent-teacher conference.
His first impression was that he was very mature and steady.
Was it such a steady person who called her to tell her that her best friend had passed away half a month ago?
And Lin Qiong was eating beside him...
What was going on?
Was what Lin Que said on the other end of the phone true?
Or was this strange Lin Qiong beside him real?
Weird behavior?
At this moment, her mind was exceptionally sharp.
All the details that he had overlooked previously surfaced in his mind.
If they were just ordinary friends, they probably wouldn't have noticed it, but as his best friend, Chu Xiaonan felt that there was something wrong with Lin Qiong.
It was too abnormal!
He looked at Lin Qiong's back.
Chu Xiaonan could feel a cold chill creeping up her spine.
If what Lin Que said was true.
Then…what was this?
A ghost?
That's impossible!
Of course, there was another possibility.
That was Lin Que's prank.
" But that's even more impossible…"
That was a super invincible sis-con!
How could he joke about his sister's life?
So…
After putting down his phone, Chu Xiaonan realized something.
His hands and legs were trembling slightly.
Fortunately, she had a decisive personality.
She silently walked towards the entrance of the canteen.
Before she left the cafeteria, she turned around as if she had sensed something.
This glance made her entire body turn cold.
He did not know when.
'Lin Qiong' had already stopped eating.
He was staring at her.
That fake smiling face had a palpitating paleness to it.
That was definitely not the skin color that a living person should have.
Chu Xiaonan gritted his teeth in fear and anger.
"Monster!"
