Goddess has something different

The days after the start of the school year went by quickly, with students following a routine of going between the classroom, cafeteria, and dormitory. There was little free time, aside from the occasional evening. I attended a school called Guan Shen Lian Zhong, which was not highly regarded, but had strict academic requirements. Despite the demanding schedule, I made an effort to spend time with my goddess, Wang Qinyuan. I watched her every move and was completely infatuated with her, but kept my feelings hidden because of my reserved nature. Our relationship remained that of ordinary classmates and we had never even become friends.

After observing and collecting information about Wang Qinyuan for some time, I learned a lot about her. For instance, she loved eating watermelon and dressed casually when at home. In the summer, she liked to wear tank tops and had delicate skin that was much more alluring than Xu Qin's. She was a typical soft and cute little beauty, and I couldn't help but want to hold and touch her. However, the most crucial information I discovered was about her parents. It was said that her parents were excellent teachers, and they had been transferred to a prestigious school in the county. They were currently planning to buy a house there and move Wang Qinyuan there as well.

The thought of Wang Qinyuan leaving made me feel sad, and I often found myself staring at her, lost in thought. I wanted to tell her how I felt, but I lacked the courage to do so whenever I was face to face with her.

Because I didn't have the courage to confess my feelings, I could only secretly pay more attention to her, and I even had a convenient information channel, which was my former classmate Xu Qin. According to Xu Qin, Wang Qinyuan's parents only come home on weekends, so Wang Qinyuan has been living alone at home most of the time recently. She is also afraid of the dark at night, so Xu Qin often goes to her house to study and sleep with her. Xu Qin even hears Wang Qinyuan talking in her sleep and sometimes even grinding her teeth, which looks very strange.

Xu Qin is quite gossipy, so sometimes her words are not very pleasing to the ear. After all, Wang Qinyuan is my goddess, and I don't like others speaking ill of her. However, Xu Qin is the only person who can really know about Wang Qinyuan's situation, so many times I have to hold back and listen to her with interest, and then casually make a few comments, and the matter is considered over.

It's strange to say that Wang Qinyuan's parents have been away from home during this period, so she should be able to practice speaking loudly and freely at home. However, for some reason, she still has to go to the pavilion on Dongshan Mountain to practice speaking. Moreover, her frequency of going there seems to be increasing. She goes there in the morning, at noon, and sometimes even after school in the evening when it's almost dark. This makes me a little puzzled and I don't know what's going on.

I tried to follow her a few times and didn't find anything unusual, which made me even more suspicious. I always feel that there is a problem with this. I also asked Xu Qin about this issue. According to her, it seems that Wang Qinyuan likes the environment on the mountain, saying that the air is fresh and conducive to thinking, so she often goes there. But this did not dispel my doubts because I observed carefully and found that Wang Qinyuan's mental state has been significantly worse recently. Her eye circles are a bit dark, her skin has become dull, and she always looks like she's sick. Sometimes she even falls asleep during class, which is different from her previous image. She obviously has some problems.

I am very worried about Wang Qinyuan's situation, so during lunchtime when there were fewer people in the classroom, I pulled Xu Qin aside and asked her earnestly what happened to Wang Qinyuan. When Xu Qin heard my words, she immediately frowned and said, "Nothing is wrong with her, what could possibly happen?"

"Not true. I've observed her recently and noticed that she has dark circles under her eyes, and her skin looks yellowish. Obviously, she's not sleeping well. You often sleep over at her house, so you can't be unaware of the situation. Quickly tell me what's going on," I said coldly, watching her reaction carefully.

As expected, after hearing my words, Xu Qin bit her lip and hesitated, obviously having some personal issues. However, what made me helpless was that she stammered for a while before suddenly glaring at me and saying, "Liuyihen, what's your relationship with Wang Qinyuan? What does it have to do with you if she has a problem? Why do you keep asking? I still have to study, so I won't tell you. I warn you, don't mess with me lately, or I'll find someone to beat you up!"

Xu Qin's reaction was completely different from before, and as I watched her leave in anger, I became even more convinced that something was wrong. However, although Xu Qin refused to answer my questions, I had other ways of finding out the truth. After all, Wang Qinyuan had been eating lunch in the school cafeteria recently, and we were also classmates, so if I really wanted to uncover the truth, I didn't have to rely solely on Xu Qin.

Having made up my mind, I sat across from Wang Qinyuan with my lunchbox during noon. As I looked at her face-to-face, I noticed her expression was somewhat dazed, and her complexion was slightly yellow, which was not normal. Subconsciously, I opened my Heavenly Eye and scanned Wang Qinyuan from head to toe. I immediately discovered a layer of black energy surrounding her, which was obviously a Yin entity. This indicated that Wang Qinyuan must have been entangled by something; otherwise, she would not be in this state. I became very nervous and couldn't help but ask her, "Wang Qinyuan, did you encounter something recently? Do you have any strange dreams when you sleep at night?"

"Liu, Liu Yihen, what did you say?" Upon hearing my words, Wang Qinyuan was startled and spoke stutteringly. Then she quickly got up, grabbed her lunchbox, and left in an obviously panicked state.

Seeing Wang Qinyuan's reaction, I became more convinced of my speculation. I found Xu Qin again and pulled her into the small forest behind the classroom. Looking at her seriously, I said, "Xu Qin, tell me the truth. Did something happen to Wang Qinyuan? I'm telling you, this matter is very important. You better tell me the truth if you still want to save her life. Otherwise, I estimate that Wang Qinyuan will be killed by you!"
