Chapter 134: Temptation
Of course, who wouldn’t? After seeing that the situation is getting on his side, he was delighted.
It was him who decided to do this because they need to divert everyone’s attention from his ss. And the perfect targets are the trainees themselves. Even if that information was fake, it ended up helping them forget about himself.
Bai Yue also took this opportunity to drag Qin An to a deeper ss.
Even if Qin An didn’t know about this, as long as the people won’t vote for him anymore, he’ll not debut. And if he even tries to accept any work related to the industry, the netizens will just block him again.
He has to ruin the young man’s small reputation to let everyone, especially the Marshal, know that the young man was just planning with impure thoughts to him.
He will not let anyone try to get what’s his.
The greed inside his heart is getting deep and his ambitions are getting wider itself yet only he himself knows about the real color behind this.
Unfortunately, just as he thought that everything would go as planned, he didn’t know that all his actions were seen by the ghost behind him.
’Bai Ling’ listened and watched everything in front of him. He saw how he decisively diverted hatred to others when they didn’t do anything wrong, especially Qin An, the only one who could see him.
Even if they had fought and he was afraid of that young man, how could he let this fake Bai Yue be happy?
Seeing him smiling in front of the crowd, the hatred accumulated inside his heart couldn’t take it anymore.
’Bai Ling’ could feel sothing inside him growing.
He can feel an indescribable strength... It was very tempting.
He instinctively knows that if he let this power grow inside him, he could finally do sothing for himself. This is what he wanted of course.
But the strange premonition at the back of his mind is saying otherwise.
It’s not good.
This made him stilled and ca back from his senses.
Certainly, there must be a condition, right?
What is it? ’Bai Ling’ didn’t even know why he was feeling this way.
If... If he accepts this, what price he has to pay?
"Accept it..."
"!!!"
’Bai Ling’ was startled by the voice beside him and he quickly turned his head towards it.
It was a fat young man wearing a school uniform with a lot of blood stains on his stomach. His face was very pale and he could even see so black veins on his fat neck. His eyes were also red and were floating like him.
A ghost.
"Accept it." The ghost repeated that made him co back to his senses. Accept? Accept what?
"Accept that power inside you."
Bai Ling’s eyes widened. How did the ghost know?!
"Isn’t it tiring to stay like this?" Instead of answering, the ghost starts talking and looking directly at his eyes. The words that he said next felt like a tempting whisper beside his ears.
"Do you just want to stay like this? Helplessly watching the murderer enjoy the life that’s supposed to be yours? Do you just want to stay a coward all this ti?"
Coward? That word seems to trigger sothing in his mind that makes Bai Ling’s hands tremble.
"Everyday, you’ll see him enjoy the fruit of evil deeds he keeps on doing. You will see his smile and happiness because he had the life you envied the most. Your life, your identity as a son of a wealthy family... and the most favorite son of your Mother."
Favorite son?
Bai Ling’s eyes start to redden.
Right. His mother’s favorite son. Isn’t that the fake one instead of him?
Just because he was more intelligent and clever than him, just because he can do whatever she wants, was that even enough reason to abandon him who was her flesh and blood? Is he not important? Does she really love to be in that family that she chose to forget him?
Why?! He is her own son! Her real and only son! How could she do this?! How could she just let soone else take his position?!
And that ’Bai Yue’!, why?! Why did he do this to him?! All his life, even if the latter beca his mother’s favorite and took his position, he never let the hatred take him because deep inside his heart, he was grateful for him!
He is happy that sohow his mother is smiling because Bai Yue could reach their Mother’s expectation. He was grateful even if he took everything away from him.
Yet what did he receive from the both of them? Death?! And this endless pain?!
Only he himself knows the tears and loneliness he suffered when he turned into a ghost and watched them beco like a real family.
He watched his mother hug him, how his mother said he was very proud of the latter and how she supported him.
All of it, he could only watch on the corner.
He was not seen. He was never noticed even if he was alive. What could be better than him dying, right?
"Will you let this continue?" The ghost asked and he slowly shook his head as he let the bloody red tears fall from his eyes.
"Will you just let that fake enjoy his life forever?"
"I-I don’t want to..." Bai Ling refused.
The ghost smiles erringly and floats closer to him.
"Then let the power grow."
"H-How?"
"Just let it inside you..." the whispers from the ghost seem like the cold and creepy music that slowly allures him to sothing he doesn’t know what awaits him.
He doesn’t even know if what he’s saying is true, or maybe he has other motives towards him.
But Bai Ling could really feel sothing inside him.
It was very strange and mysterious... but he decided to accept it.
It doesn’t matter anymore.
Whatever price he has to take, he doesn’t care anymore.
He will take it back.
He will avenge himself back.
