Chapter 6: Even as a ghost, I won't let you go

  No wonder he's a little rascal, his fighting skills are still somewhat skilled, otherwise Huang Mao wouldn't have been able to bring up several younger brothers. In order to get benefits in front of Lin Shangren, Huang Mao and his accomplices brutally beat Chen Pengpeng!

  "Hey, you think you can still hide? Shut up with your nonsense!"

  Huang Mao looked at Chen Pengpeng who was covered in blood after being beaten by him and his younger brother.

  "Little Huang, this kid still dares to show off in front of you! Now he's lying on the ground, let's see if he still dares to show off or not!"

  One of Huang Mao's younger brothers was very good at flattering and said:

  Chen Peng clutched his stomach, coughing uncontrollably on the ground. A thread of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth as he struggled to slowly get up from the ground. His eyes glared furiously at these scoundrels.

  "Lin hurt people, you're just a piece of trash. Just a useless trash that only knows how to shout from the sidelines! Besides being able to call your dog legs, what else can you do? Haha..."

  Chen Peng endured the pain and sneered at Lin Shangren and his men.

  "Haha, looks like you really have guts! Hehe~ I wonder if you're really that gutsy. Little Huang caught him, let's each pee on him and let him taste it."

  Lin Shangren smiled wickedly and said.

  Chen Pengpeng's face turned pale as he heard Lin Shangren's words. He couldn't believe that Lin Shangren would do such a dirty thing. He glanced at the cliff behind him and couldn't help but shake his head with a bitter smile.

  "Mom, goodbye forever. I'm unfilial and couldn't let you enjoy life properly, leaving you all alone in this world. Xiaofeng, my good brother, I can no longer compete with you for food. And Lingling, I won't be able to bring happiness to you! Everyone... everyone should say goodbye..."

  Chen Peng's face was streaked with tears as he whispered softly.

  "Haha, Lin hurt you! Don't daydream anymore. Unfortunately, your purpose wasn't achieved today. Remember this, even if I become a ghost, I won't let you off!"

  Zhenpeng finished speaking with a loud laugh, filled with bitterness and unwillingness. He turned around and jumped off the cliff behind him. The sound echoed back from the peak.

  "Hurt, hurt, hurt, brother! That kid jumped off a cliff, what should we do?"

  Huang Mao, although a thug by origin, had never killed anyone before. He said with a fearful tone.

  It's not just Huang Mao, the younger brothers around him are also trembling with fear in their hearts.

  "Damn it! The dead vegetable seller, I've freed him! I didn't think of letting him live today, and he chose to jump off the cliff himself, sparing me from doing it myself!"

  The forest path is dark and eerie.

  Hearing Lin's hurtful words, Huang Mao and the others were all afraid to look at him. They were all secretly rejoicing in their hearts that they were standing on his side.

  "What the f**k, you're all scared to death. The deputy director of C City is my brother-in-law, I can kill one or two people without a problem, let alone that kid who jumped off the cliff on his own accord? What's wrong with your brains? Are you out of your minds?"

  Lin Shangren gave them a tranquilizing needle.

  "Haha, that's it, that's it. That kid jumped off the cliff by himself, what does it have to do with us? Besides, even if we caught him, no one would see it! Damn it, he really got off easy."

  Huang Mao is very good at flattering people.

  "Haha~, today brothers are also tired, we still go to Guihai tonight and have a good drink!"

  Lin Shangren patted Huang Mao's shoulder and said.

  "Huang Ge, today we haven't even had a chance to beat him up a few times, and this kid has already self-destructed! It's really frustrating."

  A little brother habitually came up and flattered him.

  "Hehe! Next time we'll definitely let you have enough fun! Let's go, to Guihai!"

  After finishing speaking, Lin Shangren led the way and ran away in a van.

  A burst of whistling sound came from the top of the mountain and rushed down, the shadow of the car slowly disappeared among the mountains.

  Gusts of cold wind swept through the trees in the mountains, and a sense of desolation echoed throughout the mountain peaks.

  In school, a pretty girl walks down the corridor of her own classroom, with both hands resting on the railing. Her eyes are fixed on the staircase leading upstairs.

  Dusk had gradually darkened, but the girl still showed no intention of leaving. Her eyes kept glancing at the already dark staircase, hoping to catch a glimpse of his shadow soon.

  Suddenly, the girl burst into sobs. Her small hands covered her mouth, preventing herself from making too much noise.

  "Zhenpeng, why did you leave by yourself and make me wait alone? Why didn't you tell me in advance?! Do I really look down on you?! Am I really concerned about what others think?! No! You're wrong, all wrong. I never have, nor will I ever be bound by the happiness that others have predetermined for me. I just want to find my own happiness, nothing more. Is it really that difficult?"

  The girl finally couldn't bear the blow and burst into tears.

  Fortunately, everyone at school has finished their journey, otherwise it would have attracted a lot of people.

  This girl is Wei Linlin. She and Chen Pengpeng had agreed to walk home together after school, but she waited for a long time without seeing any sign of him.

  Jialin's heart is really hurting! Can't bear being deceived, tears fell.

  Night gradually fell. In May's evening, insects were still chirping.

  A woman stood at the door as usual, her eyes gazing into the distance.

  "This kid, why has he been coming back so late these past two days? The food is cold and there's no sign of him!"

  The woman muttered a complaint.

  Before long, time passed. The woman was a bit unbearable. Her hands were tightly clenched and she paced back and forth in the room.

  "Son, hurry back! Don't let mom worry anymore. Buddha bless, hoping this child can be safe and sound."

  A woman's anxious prayer.

  A woman who hadn't slept all night sat on a wooden bench. Her forehead was tightly furrowed and never relaxed.

  She finally couldn't sit still and got up and ran out of the door.

  All the way, the woman rushed through the congested traffic. Her feet didn't stop as she ran to her son's high school.

  Suddenly a screeching sound of brakes.

  "Do you want to hurry up and reincarnate?"

  A furious driver scolded the woman.

  "Sorry! Sorry!"

  The woman nervously said goodbye to the driver and continued on her way.

  Nowadays she worries about her son and runs recklessly without regard for anything else.

  Finally arrived at the high school where his son studied, panting and out of breath.

  Bamboo and High School

  The woman was anxious and wanted to run into the school gate, but was stopped by the security guard.

  "Hey, what are you doing?"

  The security guard asked the woman.

  "Hello, my son is studying here. He didn't come back last night, I want to go in and see if he's there."

  The woman said anxiously.

  "Oh, what grade is your son in? What's his name?"

  The security guard nodded and continued to ask.

  "He is in Class 16 of Grade Three and his name is Chen Pengpeng."

  The woman replied.

  "You wait here for a moment, I'll call his class teacher and ask him to come over."

  The security guard finished speaking and picked up the phone in the security room to make a call.

  "Beep Beep"

  The phone rang several times.

  "Hello, I'm Jiong Rou. What can I help you with?"

  A sweet voice came over the phone.

  "Hello! Hello, I'm the school security guard. A parent said her son didn't come home last night and came to school looking for him, saying he's in your class. His name is Chen Pengpeng, right?"

  The security guard asked in a very gentle tone.

  "Yes, yes. Yes, I'll go out and see her right away and ask her to wait."

  Jiang Rou hastily hung up the phone.

  "Classmates, the teacher has something on and this lesson will be self-study."

  After finishing speaking, he hastily ran out of the classroom.

  The classroom suddenly erupted into a commotion.

  Zhou Xiaofeng sat in the classroom, staring blankly at the empty seat in front of him. He was puzzled why Chen Pengpeng didn't show up for class, as he always did no matter what. What's going on today?

  Zhou Xiaofeng was puzzled in his heart.

  She rushed hastily into the security room and saw the woman.

  "Hello, I am Chen Pengpeng's class teacher. Can you tell me about the situation? He didn't come to class today either."

  The sound of the cicada is like silk being torn apart.

  "What! Pong Er, didn't come to class! Where did he go then?"

  The woman stood up from her seat as soon as she heard Rong Yu's words. Her heart was racing with excitement.

  "He didn't come to class today, I found it strange too. Normally he would come to school for classes, and I was just about to visit your family to ask about the situation!"

  Jing Rou calmed herself down and said.

  "Wo... I don't know where Peng'er went! This child has been sensible since he was a kid. He's never made me worry before. But last night, he didn't come home, and I waited for him all evening."

  The woman, no longer calm, cried out in a loud voice.

  "Don't cry first, let's calm down and think of a way, we will definitely find him!"

  The gentle words comforted the woman.
