” “Nothing to say, Miaoqing?” “...I think I get what you mean now, Ruxin.” Bai Miaoqing turned her head slightly, revealing a smile—or rather, a sarcastic sneer, like some deep form of self-mockery. “You’re trying to say that the reason Chen Anran asked me to come to the reservoir with her that day was to tell me she had a crush on someone...

Bai Miaoqing took a deep breath and looked at her seriously. “The ghost is real. That part is the truth. I said Chen Anran’s wish came true because, when I was a freshman in high school, there was a boy in her middle school class who was close to her. He drowned while swimming in a wild river.
