Chapter 680: There’s a Ghost

On this day, after her labor work ended, Yuan Ting went to the canteen to eat with her other cellmates.

She sat with the others and saw Zhu Cuiying holding a plate and sitting by the window alone, eating slowly. Thinking of the look Zhu Cuiying gave her, Yuan Ting panicked. She could not help but ask the woman beside her, “Why haven’t I seen anyone else eat with Zhu Cuiying?”

Sitting beside Yuan Ting was a young girl called Gao Zitong. She was only in her twenties and was in for drug trafficking. Upon hearing this, she glanced at Zhu Cuiying and said, “She’s different from us.”

“Why?”

“Look carefully. How many of the thousands of people in our prison are like her? She even sits elegantly in prison. Look, she eats slowly and beautifully. She walks with her head high and her clothes are clean…” Gao Zitong sighed.” I heard that she especially likes to read. She has read almost all the books in our library. ”

“Although she’s a group of reformers, she’s the phoenix in our prison. Us ravens and sparrows naturally can’t get along with her.” Gao Zitong stuck out her tongue and said softly, “If this were outside, people like Zhu Cuiying would be unreachable noble ladies. As for us…”

She stopped talking.

Yuan Ting looked at Zhu Cuiying’s elegant sitting posture and could not help but feel disappointed.

As celebrities, they had all practiced body etiquette. Someone like her felt inferior when compared to Zhu Cuiying.

After dinner, Yuan Ting washed the dishes. When she left the canteen, she felt that someone was staring at her. She subconsciously looked at Zhu Cuiying and happened to catch her cold and heartless gaze. Yuan Ting’s heart skipped a beat as she suddenly grabbed Gao Zitong’s hand beside her.

“What’s wrong?”

When Yuan Ting was not in trouble, many people respected her for her divine beauty when she was young. Gao Zitong had also been infatuated with her, so in this prison, Gao Zitong’s attitude towards Yuan Ting was still considered respectful. Yuan Ting held Gao Zitong’s hand tightly and said, “Zhu Cuiying wants to kill me!”

Gao Zitong was stunned.

She looked at Zhu Cuiying who had already finished her meal and was standing up. She carried her plate to the sink to wash the dishes. Her quiet appearance did not seem like she was going to kill anyone. Gao Zitong thought of what someone in the same building had said about Yuan Ting losing her mind and suffering from Hysteria.

She could not help but comfort Yuan Ting and said, “You’re overthinking. She won’t kill you.”

Yuan Ting insisted on her opinion and said, “She will really kill me! She has glared at me several times today! I suspect that she is that ghost!”

Recently, Yuan Ting had been saying that there was something wrong with their dormitory every day. Everyone’s ears were sick of it.

Gao Zitong looked at Yuan Ting with pity. She thought that people indeed could not do bad things. There was retribution for doing bad things. When she was released from prison in the future, she was determined not to deal drugs anymore. She had to turn over a new leaf and be a good person. Seeing that Gao Zitong did not believe her, Yuan Ting could not even cry.

When they arrived at the prison building, Yuan Ting slowly returned to the dormitory. When she pushed open the door and saw that Zhu Cuiying had returned, her expression froze.

Zhu Cuiying nodded at her and said, “You’re back?”

“Yeah.”

Yuan Ting braced herself and entered the dormitory. Zhu Cuiying said, “I’m going to take a shower. Are you coming?”

Yuan Ting shook her head and said, “You can go first.”

The time provided by the hot water was limited, so Zhu Cuiying carried her clothes to the shower room. After she left, Yuan Ting heaved a sigh of relief. After a while, Zhu Cuiying returned and said to Yuan Ting, “The water is almost stopping. Go take a shower.”

“…Okay.”

Yuan Ting took a change of clothes and went to the shower room.

There was almost no one else in the shower room. Yuan Ting casually pushed open a small door. She took off her clothes and turned on the showerhead. Just as the water drenched her body, Yuan Ting suddenly heard Ji Yue’s cries again. Yuan Ting’s body froze. The warm water surrounded her body, but Yuan Ting felt cold.

She pricked up her ears and listened for a while, almost breaking down.

“Get out!”

“Stop pretending!”

“I’m not afraid of you!”

Yuan Ting suddenly opened the door of the small compartment and ran out naked. When she opened the door, she saw a figure flash into a small compartment next door. Yuan Ting was stunned and realized something. She was suddenly furious. “Who are you!”

“Are you deliberately trying to scare me!”

Realizing that what she had heard recently had been artificially created, Yuan Ting was furious. She was not afraid of people, she was afraid of ghosts. After all, she was a ruthless person. Yuan Ting rushed into the small cubicle. The small cubicle was not closed. The moment Yuan Ting entered the cubicle, she saw someone standing with her back facing her.

Yuan Ting placed her hand on that person’s shoulder. The skin under her fingertips seemed a little cold.

Yuan Ting caught the culprit. She, who had been aggrieved for too long, finally could not help but scold this person. “Turn around, bitch! Tell me, who made you scare me! If you don’t say it, believe it or not, I…”

The person in front of her suddenly turned around, her young and beautiful face abnormally pale.

Yuan Ting knew this face.

It was Ji Yue!

“Ah!”

Yuan Ting was so shocked that she fell to the ground.

She was old, and as she sat down, every bone in her body ached. But Yuan Ting acted as if she could not feel the pain. Her hands danced in front of her, and she waved them as she retreated, her body sliding across the wet bathroom floor.

She was still begging for mercy. She begged incoherently, “Ji Yue! Ji Yue, don’t kill me! Don’t kill me! I was wrong! I was really wrong. I shouldn’t have hurt you like that. Ji Yue, I was wrong…”

Ji Yue, who was wearing a prison uniform, walked towards Yuan Ting. She did not say a word, but her eyes were frighteningly cold.

Seeing her walk towards her, Yuan Ting quickly turned around and ran towards the door.

She ran behind the door and tried to pull it open, only to discover that the door was locked from the outside.

Yuan Ting slammed the door hard and was about to shout when her mouth was covered by a cold hand. Yuan Ting’s body was pulled over by Ji Yue. Her back leaned against the door and she slid to the ground. Yuan Ting was completely in despair. She hugged her head and whimpered, begging Ji Yue to let her go.

Ji Yue’s pale face had a pair of empty and strange eyes. She stared at Yuan Ting for a while and suddenly said, “I’m so cold down here!”

“Miss Yuan, I’m so cold. Come accompany me…”

“All these years, I’ve been looking for you. Now, I’ve found you. Come, come down and accompany me, okay?” Ji Yue’s voice was gloomy. The light behind her flickered, and the room in the shade flickered. This scene was especially frightening and strange.

Yuan Ting was so scared that she peed her pants.

She whimpered non-stop, her eyes filled with fear and despair.
