[Quick Transmigration] The Clingy Spirit of the Blackened Male Supporting Character - Chapter 134

Luo Ning was full of energy and in good spirits. He was chatting and laughing with his colleagues. At noon, he noticed Li Dapeng walking past him.

Just yesterday, Li Dapeng had been full of life and still cursing, but today for some reason, he looked completely worn out, his hair disheveled.

His dark circles were obvious, and his eyes were bloodshot. He walked nervously, his body was tense, and he was glancing around him as if he were a startled bird. It seemed that even the slightest movement could frighten him.

Luo Ning was puzzled. Could such a dramatic change in person happen in just one night?

It was as if someone had drained all his life force. He was a bit curious. Perhaps he encountered something dirty, just like Luo Ning did.

After all, such scum deserved to face the consequences of their bad actions. Luo Ning felt no sympathy for him.

He opened a shopping app, planning to buy himself some talismans. He wasn’t sure if they would be useful, but at least they would give him some psychological comfort.

The office door slammed shut. Li Dapeng collapsed into his chair, panting heavily. His eyes were filled with a mixture of malice and fear. He kicked the table in frustration, gritting his teeth.

He closed his eyes for a moment, and a dull ache pulsed in his nerves. Through his blurred vision, he noticed the flickering fluorescent lights above his head.

Last night’s scenes replayed in his mind. While he was sleeping, he subconsciously felt his body grow cold. In a daze, something cold dripped onto his face. He couldn’t help but touch his face. It felt like a water droplet, but it was thick and foul-smelling.

In the dim light, he looked closely. It was blood. Drops were falling from the once pure white ceiling. His bedding had turned dark red, soaked in blood. He was lying in a pool of it.

Li Dapeng jolted awake. Looking closely, everything had vanished. He was startled and then fell back asleep easily again. However, his dreams were anything but pleasant. Something was constantly chasing him, laughing creepily.

Now recalling those moments, Li Dapeng remained trembling. He didn’t think the blood was merely an illusion because that cold, sticky sensation was far too real.

He had never encountered such things before. What was happening?

Meanwhile, Luo Ning also felt a strange sensation. His actions of undressing paused. For some reason, he felt like something was watching him, a sinister gaze. He suddenly turned around, but there was nothing there.

Luo Ning frowned. He was probably just overreacting.

Bending down, he rummaged through his pajamas. The young man had a slender build, yet there was a graceful beauty about him, even fairer and smoother than milk, with beautiful and flowing curves.

He had just washed his hair, and it looked fluffy and glowy with a soft sheen. His face was rosy, with thin red lips. He appeared particularly appealing.

The wisp of black mist drifted lightly, pausing for a moment in the air before gently floating behind Luo Ning.

Even with his extreme ferocity, he had never seen such a scene. He immediately sensed that he was looking at this person and realized that perhaps he didn’t feel as much hatred or disgust. The once disgusting and foul soul now seemed to possess a hint of sweetness?

The black mist saw Luo Ning’s strawberry-patterned and yellow duck-patterned underwear lying carelessly on the bed. The entire cloud of mist became dense, swirling somewhat erratically to cover the underwear with a cloth.

He felt a bit hot. Stepping outside might help, but why should he hide? Ridiculous! He wasn’t that cowardly!

To assert his fierce and terrifying aura, the black mist grew denser, stirring a gust of cold wind.

The system, which had been huddled in the space and wanting to get some fresh air after finishing its TV drama, accurately spotted the black mist and saw the flickering blood-red light within.

The system’s eyes widened, and it gasped, feeling as though its data might explode!

Ahhh! So scary!

The system had no time to scream as it felt itself fainting. Before fainting, it tried to warn Luo Ning but then noticed something was off. It looked intently at the faintly visible human shape within the black mist. Upon closer inspection, it realized it was the mission target!

Good, the mission target had delivered himself to their doorstep. There was no need to look for him.

The system’s data returned to normal. It relaxed, as if gaining confidence. Based on its experience from previous worlds, all male supporting characters had never been able to resist its host’s charm. Now the system was confident the mission would be completed. After all, the host was so cute and gentle. Even if the male supporting character was a ghost, he couldn’t resist!

While it was complaining, it observed the man with a subtle disdain. His aura was eerie, and his face was quite ugly.

It whispered to Luo Ning, “Ning Ning, I found the mission target.”

Luo Ning was not particularly interested. “I know the mission target is at the school, but I’m too scared to go find him.”

The system responded, “He’s right behind you.”

“Huh? What does that mean?”

Luo Ning paused for a moment, taking a few seconds to process what the system had said. Once he understood, he stiffened, his eyes widening in shock, and his mouth slightly agape. A chill crept up from behind him, causing his hair to nearly stand on end.

He didn’t dare to look back, suppressing his emotions as his lashes fluttered down. He pretended to be calm. He hurried onto the bed with a slightly pale face, wrapping himself in the blanket.

Luo Ning tightly closed his eyes, his body trembling uncontrollably as he tried to seek a sense of security.

He knew that hiding under the blankets wouldn’t help, but Fu Xian was a vicious ghost. Before he could even escape through the door, he might be chewed up and swallowed whole.

So he thought, if only he could pretend he was unaware, wishing he could find a grain of sand to bury himself in.

In Luo Ning’s imagination, Fu Xian was certainly scarier than an ordinary ghost, looking gruesome and bloody. He would be far more terrifying than a car accident scene, with sharp fangs.

In just a few minutes, a bead of cold sweat formed on Luo Ning’s forehead. He pressed his lips tightly together and gripped the blanket, trembling like a chicken waiting to be slaughtered.

How could he have expected that Fu Xian, who wasn’t at the school or by the protagonist’s side, would actually come here?! And how long had he been following him?

Why did he have to follow him?

Luo Ning felt like crying. He recalled how this body had previously bullied Fu Xian. Would Fu Xian seek revenge? Would the outcome be tragic?

Luo Ning remained frozen in position, not daring to move. His mind raced with various possibilities.

The black mist floated around him, somewhat confused. He didn’t understand why this previously fine person was now trembling.

Aside from him, the entire room was perfectly clean tonight.

He leaned a little closer, hovering near Luo Ning’s neck. The faint scent calmed some of the violent anxiety in his heart, and the resentment that had been constantly struggling within him faded a little, like a cool stream dousing a raging flame.

The man suddenly no longer wished to kill Luo Ning, even though he had resented this person for a long time. He had never forgotten the people who had bullied him, and he naturally recognized this face.

But feeling this person’s aura, he found it strangely hard to hate him. Thus, he temporarily abandoned the idea of tearing this person to pieces.

Luo Ning felt a chill on the back of his neck. He knew it was Fu Xian behind him. He didn’t dare turn his head, but he could sense the cold gaze upon him.

He prayed silently while considering how to deal with Fu Xian. He maintained the same position for a long time until his arms and legs grew sore, and his eyes dried out painfully. As the night dragged on, he finally couldn’t resist and succumbed to sleep—and not only that, he slept soundly.

The next morning, Luo Ning woke up. He still had to go to work, so he forced himself to remain calm as he dressed and ate. He knew that another person was watching him, so he specifically changed in the bathroom.

As he combed through his messy hair, Luo Ning’s inner anxiety eased slightly. He reasoned that since he had been fine last night without nightmares, it meant that…

Regardless of what Fu Xian was thinking, he wouldn’t attack him for the time being. So, this ghost was not as terrifying as he had imagined.

Luo Ning closed the door and glanced back out of the corner of his eye. In the end, he remained quiet, unwilling to break the current silence.

When he rushed into the office, the usual lively atmosphere was missing. His talkative colleagues kept their mouths shut, with expressions of unease. After a moment of silence, they seemed to regain composure and couldn’t helo but start whispering among themselves.

Luo Ning asked what was going on, and a colleague next to him lowered his voice. “Team Leader Li is dead.”

Luo Ning asked, “Li Dapeng?”

The colleague confirmed, “Yes, I heard from the security guard that he died in a horrible way. They only discovered him this morning. The elevator malfunctioned, and with such severe injuries, he didn’t survive.”

It was said that the elevator was faulty and couldn’t be used normally. Generally, an elevator that was malfunctioning couldn’t be opened, but surveillance footage revealed that Li Dapeng had walked straight towards the elevator, seemingly seeing something, and even successfully opened the door.

When the elevator was malfunctioning, the passageway from the first to the eleventh floor was completely empty. Li Dapeng, as if unaware, stepped directly inside. Like a kite with its string cut, his body was pulled into the dark abyss. They said his eyes still showed signs of fear. By the time he was found in the morning, all his limbs were broken. Although he was rushed to the hospital, it was too late, and the police were notified.

As colleagues recounted the events, they all sensed something was amiss. Why was Li Dapeng able to open the elevator door? Goosebumps covered their arms. They felt a chill run down their spines. They dared not bring it up again. The security guards who had witnessed the scene would probably not sleep for several days.

After such an incident, even if employees were whispering to one another, the management had no mood to intervene.

His colleagues continued discussing Li Dapeng. Although Li Dapeng wasn’t well-liked, they still felt sorry for him now that he was gone.

In addition, they suggested that the elevator be sealed off entirely. Even if it were repaired, they wouldn’t dare use it again.

The others were puzzled about the incident’s cause, but Luo Ning had a guess. Since Fu Xian had come out and was no longer restricted, the first to face retribution would definitely be Li Dapeng.

The snacks in Luo Ning’s hand suddenly felt tasteless. He wondered if Fu Xian was still lingering quietly behind him, a dangerous presence watching him. A sense of anxiety filled Luo Ning.

He could only hope silently that Fu Xian would forget the past and let him go.

After considering for a moment, Luo Ning thought he might as well try to appease Fu Xian. Whether or not Fu Xian appreciated it, he had to make some effort.

With early off-hours in the afternoon, Luo Ning waited until almost dark to return back home. His package had also arrived, containing the talismans he had purchased. He secretly pocketed one, placing the rest away properly.

That evening, the protagonist Bai Yue called him, saying he had sent him a protection talisman. After experiencing those things at school, the protagonist had gone to a series of relatives—feng shui masters, exorcists—to get these protective items.
