Chapter 1148 — Who's Scaring Whom? Although Wei Zhao had declared his feelings to Tang Yun more than once, Tang Yun always felt Wei Zhao was too outstanding, and she could never set her mind at ease! Especially when she could be of no help to him at all, Tang Yun felt all the more that she was nothing but a vase — pretty to look at and useless for anything else.

"Let's not talk about that..." Gu Mengyao shook her head. "It's already May 1st. There's only a month left before the college entrance exams. Tang Yun, which university do you want to apply to?"

"I don't know either." Tang Yun shook her head. "But whichever one Wei Zhao applies to, I'll apply to that one too. What about you two?"

"Us..." Gu Mengyao pressed her lips together. In her heart, of course, she wanted to be at the same university as Wei Zhao — but she had just declared that she didn't like him. If she didn't like him, then what was she doing tagging along after him?

"How about we all apply to the same university? We're all good friends, and that way we can look after each other in the future?" A faint ache stirred in Tang Yun's heart: so Gu Mengyao really did have feelings for Wei Zhao after all! But Tang Yun was not the sort who liked to use petty tricks to strike down a rival; if she was going to do a thing, she would do it openly and honestly. So the moment she saw through Gu Mengyao's feelings, she took the initiative and made the invitation herself.

"Mm, that works too. I don't have many friends... apart from Xiaoshu, there's only you and Wei Zhao..." The tension drained from Gu Mengyao's face as she nodded.

"So what do you think Wei Zhao and Xiaoxiao are doing right now?" Shen Yushu suddenly asked.

"How would we know?" The young miss frowned. Wei Zhao doing that kind of thing with another girl — no matter how she turned it over in her mind, it left Gu Mengyao feeling uneasy. Even though Feng Xiaoxiao was dying, she was still a little conflicted about it.

Of course, it was only a conflict. Rationally, she still supported Feng Xiaoxiao and Wei Zhao being together.

"Oh, so do you two need me, Spy Shu, to infiltrate and scout it out for you, see what they're doing?" Shen Yushu peeked outside the tent, sneaky as a thief, and made the suggestion.

"If you want to go look, then go. It's not like we're the ones sending you..." With that said, Gu Mengyao wanted to know what Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao were doing too, but she was too embarrassed to admit it.

"I don't know... I'm staying out of this." Tang Yun shook her head.

"Oh, then I'll go and be right back." Shen Yushu could hardly wait. With a temperament like hers, if she didn't go peek right now, she wouldn't be Shen Yushu!

Gu Mengyao and Tang Yun exchanged a glance. Tang Yun was in fact the one who cared most about Wei Zhao, but since she already knew what they might be doing and had come to accept it in her heart, whether she went to look or not no longer made any difference.

As for Gu Mengyao, she certainly couldn't go along with Shen Yushu and join in the fun. If she did, wouldn't that be proof that she cared about Wei Zhao? As if she cared about him!

Shen Yushu tiptoed out of the tent and crept furtively toward Wei Zhao's tent.

Su Taizao had already put on a black raincoat and pulled rubber gloves onto his hands, and, his heart pounding with terror, he headed toward Gu Mengyao's tent!

An Jianwen was ready and waiting. The very instant Gu Mengyao screamed, he would leap out to save her! In his view, Wei Zhao and that Feng girl were certainly in there doing the dirty deed, and if Gu Mengyao cried for help at a time like that, Wei Zhao would have no attention to spare for anything else — so the noble burden of saving the beauty would fall squarely on him!

Su Taizao was frightened out of his wits. Even though he was the one playing ghost, what scared him even more was running into a real ghost! He was only a fake ghost, and he knew it perfectly well. In this pitch-black darkness, if he happened to meet a real one, he'd be in a world of shit.

"Heavenly spirits, earthly spirits, please, whatever you do, don't let me run into a ghost!" Su Taizao chanted as he walked on...

The moment Shen Yushu came out of the tent, she caught sight of a black shadow slipping out of the tent where An Jianwen was, shifty and furtive, clearly up to no good.

So Shen Yushu stopped worrying about going to see Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao. She first lay down flat on the sand and camouflaged herself as part of the beach, wanting to see just what this shadow meant to do!

Su Taizao was too scared to glance left or right. Besides, Shen Yushu's camouflage was excellent — lying there on the sand, unless someone looked very carefully indeed, they would never spot her.

"Is this An Jianwen or Su Taizao? What does he want? Why is he wearing a raincoat? It isn't even raining. Is he going diving?" Shen Yushu muttered to herself, baffled, her gaze fixed on Su Taizao without the slightest slackening.

Su Taizao advanced one careful step at a time, every so often glancing back, afraid that something might be following him.

"That Yang Ganglou — what kind of rotten scheme did he cook up? He doesn't show his own face, and I'm the one who ends up playing ghost... Ugh, this is terrifying!" Teeth clenched, trembling all over, Su Taizao wanted nothing more than to finish the job as fast as possible.

Seeing Su Taizao pass by not far in front of her and keep walking toward her own tent, Shen Yushu decided to interrogate this thing first and find out what it wanted!

So Shen Yushu rose from the sand, ran up behind Su Taizao, and patted him on the shoulder.

"What... what the hell just patted me?" Su Taizao's whole body went rigid! The entire way here he had looked back with every step, and there had been no one at all behind him. For something to pat him now — what could it possibly be?

"It's you, isn't it? Brother An, don't scare me... it has to be you..." Su Taizao asked weakly, on instinct. "Brother An, I'm a coward. Whatever you do, don't frighten me... If you scare the wits out of me, how am I supposed to go play ghost and frighten Gu Mengyao..."

By now Shen Yushu was certain the person before her was Su Taizao; she simply hadn't expected him to be such a coward! And from what he was saying, this creature was on his way to scare Sister Yaoyao! No wonder he was wearing a raincoat with the hood pulled up over his head and rubber gloves on his hands — he was going to play ghost!

So you're playing ghost, are you? Fine. Then I'll play ghost first and give you a good scare!

Shen Yushu said nothing. She only reached out and patted Su Taizao on the shoulder again, then quickly stuck out her tongue.

"Brother An... what are you doing... why aren't you saying anything?" Su Taizao cautiously turned his head — and one look was enough to make his hair stand on end!

A white-robed female ghost with a ghastly pale face stood right behind him, tongue thrust out!

At that moment Shen Yushu had a white face mask plastered over her face, wore a white nightgown, and had her tongue sticking out — was that not exactly what the female ghosts of legend looked like? Especially under the moonlight, where nothing could be made out clearly, and Su Taizao's conscience was already uneasy, as he had been dreading running into something unclean all along the way. Now, seeing Shen Yushu like this, he was scared witless.

"Ah — a ghost — there's a ghost!" Su Taizao let out a shriek and took off running!

Shen Yushu, however, gave a sly grin and held up her hand in a victory sign! Su Taizao really was a coward. With that much nerve, he still dared come out to play ghost? RO
