Huang Yejiang's expression darkened, and he had nothing to say. Xie Xiaofeng was right; the reason he had Liu Weitao post those messages was precisely to blow things up and get the academy to revoke Li Nuanyan's qualification to stay on as staff at the school. He just hadn't expected Li Nuanyan to end her life in such an extreme way, and he certainly hadn't believed that ghosts really existed!

"Bastard, you still want to help him after doing something so disgusting?" Tang Jing furiously looked at Chen Hao and questioned, "He brought this upon himself, he deserves it!"

"Ah!" Huang Yejiang panicked, tightly grabbing Chen Hao's hands, and said, "Brother, you must save me, you can't just stand by and watch me die! I know I've done wrong, and I'll make up for it, I'll burn incense and paper for her every Qingming Festival!"

"Hmph, what's the use of saying these things after she's dead!" Tang Jing grew angrier as she spoke, "Blood for blood, don't worry, we'll burn incense and paper for you every Qingming Festival! Chen Hao, what exactly do you mean? If you really intend to help him, then I, I'll steal Yuqiao away every night and be a third wheel wherever you guys go!"

Hearing Tang Jing say that, Xie Xiaofeng couldn't help but laugh, then he gave a thumbs-up to Tang Jing, and said with a suppressed smile, "Brilliant, that's just brilliant!"

No sooner had Tang Jing finished speaking than Huang Yejiang hastily said, "Brother, I really do know I'm wrong, I'll agree to whatever you want me to do to make up for it, as long as I can keep my life."

"Really?" Chen Hao asked, giving Huang Yejiang a scrutinizing look.

"Really, of course it's true!"

Seeing that Chen Hao seemed to be planning to help Huang Yejiang, Tang Jing exploded with rage, stomping her feet while angrily rebuking, "You bastard! Are you really going to help him? Yuqiao, you need to take care of this idiot!"

Ye Yuqiao took Tang Jing's hand, pulling her to her side, and said in a low voice, "Let's see how the idiot intends to deal with this first. If we're not satisfied, then I'll chide him. Don't worry for now!"

"Haha," Xie Xiaofeng laughed loudly nearby, "Tang Jing, I've come to realize you're getting more and more adorable!"

Once Tang Jing had returned to her seat and calmed down, Chen Hao looked at Huang Yejiang coldly and said, "I want you to turn yourself in to the police and confess that you manipulated your roommate into posting those indecent photos and rumors online."

Having said that, Chen Hao turned to look at Tang Jing, wanting to know her reaction and whether she was satisfied with his decision.

Seeing that the anger on Tang Jing's face had somewhat softened, Chen Hao took it as her acceptance.

"Ah!" Huang Yejiang exclaimed, then shook his head slightly with a dazed look in his eyes, "I can't turn myself in; if I do, my future is completely ruined."

After a sigh, Chen Hao said, "Didn't you just say that as long as you could keep your life, that's all that mattered? Whether to turn yourself in or not is your choice to make, but my only condition is this. As long as one is alive, one should not easily say that their future is ruined. Destiny is always in the hands of the living, and being alive in itself means there are endless possibilities!"

Having said that, Chen Hao stood up, reached out to take Ye Yuqiao's hand, and said, "Yuqiao, it's getting late, let's go."

Ye Yuqiao nodded with a smile, then stood up.

Just a few steps after Chen Hao and his group left the coffee shop, Huang Yejiang immediately rushed out from the shop, shouting at their backs, "Brother, wait, I accept your condition. As long as I can keep my life, I will turn myself in after this is over."

Chen Hao turned back, the corners of his mouth curling up into a smile, and nodded, "Good!"

"So where do we go now?" Huang Yejiang asked.

"Give me my phone," Chen Hao said, "Remember my words, until this matter is settled, don't come near any screens, like phones, tablets, computers, and also TVs."

Huang Yejiang nodded.

"Xie Xiaofeng, Tang Jing, you guys take him back to the coffee shop to continue drinking coffee. Yuqiao and I are going to meet with that female ghost."

"No way, I don't want to drink coffee with him," Tang Jing immediately refused, "I want to be with Yuqiao."

Having said that, Tang Jing walked behind Ye Yuqiao and wrapped her arms around Yuqiao's waist from behind.

Chen Hao signaled Xie Xiaofeng with his eyes, and Xiao Feng immediately understood, grabbing Tang Jing's arm and pulling her away.

"Xie Xiaofeng, you bastard, what are you doing, let go of me!" Tang Jing yelled at Xie Xiaofeng as she tried with all her might to break free.

"You should follow them," Chen Hao ordered the stunned Huang Yejiang, "Don't worry, with the two of them, you won't have any problems."

Watching the three of them enter the coffee shop, Chen Hao turned to Ye Yuqiao beside him and said with a light laugh, "Now it's just the two of us in this world, suddenly everything feels so wonderful."

"You're so naughty!" Ye Yuqiao said as she pinched Chen Hao's cheek.

"Where am I being naughty?"

"Let's focus on the urgent matters first."

Afterward, Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao returned to the van and closed the doors tightly.

Since he hadn't checked a text message that had arrived earlier, Chen Hao took out his phone first. The death threat message replied—"Sometimes you don't get to die when you want to, it's not your turn until next week."

Chen Hao frowned and asked Ye Yuqiao beside him, "Girlfriend, the message says it's our turn next week, and today is only Thursday. Who is that female ghost going to kill in the next three days?"

"It's probably those students who forwarded the rumor."

"Oh," Chen Hao sighed softly, "There have been many incidents of internet rumors and hype recently, it's about time to punish those netizens who maliciously spread rumors and help disseminate them."

"Isn't your mission to exorcise demons, eliminate evil spirits, and protect the people? Are you planning to stand by and do nothing this time?"

"But now the pests are the people, not those monsters and ghosts," Chen Hao said, "I think I need to change my perspective. From now on, it's not just about capturing demons and ghosts; I also need to seek justice for some wronged spirits, allowing them to clear their grievances and rest without resentment."

Ye Yuqiao smiled, praised him with a "That's great" and then kissed him on the face as a reward for Chen Hao.

Chen Hao smiled, naturally liking the reward very much.

Then, Chen Hao replied to the death text message—"Senior, can we meet?"

The death message quickly replied—"Don't rush, you'll naturally see me next week."

"We want to talk to you and help your Yin Soul cross over to the Netherworld."

For a long time, there was no further reply to the message.

Not until ten minutes later, "Ding Dong!" Huang Yejiang's phone notification sounded.

Chen Hao immediately opened it.

"Ah!" Chen Hao was startled, as the screen displayed a horrifying face of a female ghost, with blood flowing from seven orifices and a deathly pale complexion.
