The boy in school uniform looked about 60% similar to Xu Yu. He walked beside Xu's father, carrying a backpack on his shoulders, and said something happily, which made Xu's father and mother laugh.

What a happy family of three.

The year after Xu Yu's death, Xu's mother was diagnosed with pregnancy.

Xu's parents were very happy. Even though Xu's mother was already an elderly mother at the time, they still resolutely gave birth to the child.

With the lessons learned from the previous experience, they paid more attention to their second son and took better care of him.

With their second son by their side, time has long washed away the sorrow they felt when they lost their eldest son.

It seemed that Xu's parents had not yet gotten off work. The three of them chatted for a while, and the boy handed a bag to Xu's father and turned to leave.

The young man walked quickly and soon reached Chu Jing.

Seeing Chu Jing, the boy slowed down his pace, glanced at her secretly several times, and finally his face blushed and he walked towards Chu Jing.

He smiled brightly and said enthusiastically, "Sister, you are so beautiful! Are you a student of this school?"

"My name is Xu Li. My parents are teachers at this school. I will also be attending this school in two years. Sister, can I add your contact information?"

Although Xu Li is two years younger than Chu Jing, he is already much taller than Chu Jing. When he stands in front of Chu Jing at such a close distance, especially when he smiles, he looks more like Xu Yu.

Chu Jing was slightly distracted, and for a moment he seemed to see Xu Yu.

Seeing Chu Jing staring at his face directly, Xu Li's face turned even redder.

He was a little proud, "Sister thinks I'm handsome too, right? My classmates at school all say I'm the school hunk!"

Chu Jing spoke the truth, which also fulfilled the confidence and flamboyance of a young boy. "He is indeed very handsome, and looks a lot like someone I know."

The young man listened, made a slightly bitter face, and asked worriedly: "Who is it? Could it be my sister's boyfriend?"

He said unconvincedly, "How much like can they be? Is he as handsome as me? I don't have any brothers or sisters, how much like can they be?"

Chu Jing realized something and asked, "Are you an only child?"

Xu Li nodded in confusion, "Yeah! My mom was almost forty when she gave birth to me! I wish I had a brother or sister, but unfortunately I don't have one."

Chu Jing was speechless.

She suddenly gave up the idea of looking for Xu's parents.

What would the couple who had erased Xu Yu from their lives say if they saw her again?

If Xu Yu secretly went home and saw that the family was still happy without him, how would he feel?

Chu Jing also smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I already have a boyfriend. He's much more handsome than you, and I haven't thought about changing boyfriends recently."

She suddenly remembered Xu Yu's questioning that day.

He said, is she going to betray him too?

Yes, Xu Yu has nothing left but himself.

And she needed to end it all, no matter what the method.

As soon as Chu Jing returned home, he saw Taoist Xu coming with a lot of bags on his back.

Taoist Xu dumped everything onto the table, a mess forming a small mountain. There was a small wooden sword, a copper coin sword, a bracelet made of some unknown wood, a yellow talisman with strange symbols painted on it, a small silver bell, a gray bronze mirror...

Chu Jing picked up two pieces from the box and looked at them curiously. "What do you mean by bringing in a bunch of junk?"

Taoist Xu's eyes widened as he retorted, "What do you mean by rubbish? This is the magic weapon I collected with great difficulty to deal with Xu Yu!"

Chu Jing put the things in his hand back into the pile of junk, "Oh, can these broken magic weapons really deal with Xu Yu?"

Taoist Xu plopped down on the sofa, his lips pressed into a straight line, and said unconvincingly, "There are always more solutions than problems! How can you know if you don't try?"

Chu Jing glanced at Taoist Xu and said, "I don't expect anything from you. I've already contacted a reliable Taoist named Zhong. He'll be here as soon as he finishes his current work. He said he'll be here by next Tuesday at the latest."

Next Tuesday is the last day of the seventh day that Xu Yu mentioned last time.

Just in time.

"Your last name is Zhong?" Taoist Xu stood up from the sofa when he heard it. "What do you mean? Are you saying I'm unreliable?"

Chu Jing didn't joke this time, but said seriously: "We can't joke about human lives. No one can guarantee that Xu Yu won't attack other innocent people."

Xu Yu said he wanted to kill everyone in the school.

No one dares to bet on this.

Chu Jing suddenly turned his gaze back to the pile of broken… no, magic weapons, “Are these things really useful?”

Taoist Xu: "Of course it works!"

Chu Jing grabbed a few pieces from inside and left, "In that case, lend me a few first!"

Chu Jing and Taoist Xu originally planned to wait for help to arrive before meeting Xu Yu, but they didn't expect it to be the sixth night.

Chu Jing dreamed of Xu Yu again.

In the dream, Xu Yu seemed to have returned to the way she was when they first went to the amusement park.

They happily and harmoniously visited the amusement park again. This time they went early in the morning and there were few people in the amusement park. They tried all the fun projects and rode the Ferris wheel again at dusk and kissed at the highest point.

Xu Yu said: "Xiao Jing must stay with me forever!"

But when night fell, the amusement park became empty, the huge Ferris wheel spun idly, and the warm yellow lights illuminated the surroundings. Xu Yu's face suddenly changed.

He tightly pinched Chu Jing's neck with both hands, and the suffocation made Chu Jing's face turn red. Xu Yu grinned sinisterly and warned her:

"Tomorrow is the last day! I want to see you at school at twelve o'clock midnight. If you don't come, then no one in the school will ever see tomorrow again!"

Chu Jing pried Xu Yu's hands apart, trying to get more fresh air.

Xu Yu smiled and pushed harder. With a click, Chu Jing felt a black screen in front of his eyes.

"Ha..." Chu Jing suddenly sat up from the bed.

She covered her neck uncomfortably. The painful feeling of suffocation had not completely dissipated, which made her feel like vomiting.

Chu Jing got out of bed and ran to the bathroom. She held onto the sink and coughed a few times. She coughed up tears. When she looked up at the mirror, she saw obvious dark red pinch marks on her neck.

Chu Jing's pupils shrank slightly. She touched the mark and felt no pain.

Chu Jing was sure that this was not a dream.

She rinsed her mouth, returned to the bed, lifted the pillow, and found that the amulet under the pillow had turned into burnt powder.

Chu Jing immediately called Taoist Xu and asked him to come over, while she changed her clothes and went downstairs to have breakfast.

She discovered that the marks on her neck were invisible to other people in the villa.

Taoist Xu arrived in less than half an hour.

Seeing the pinch marks on Chu Jing's neck, his face darkened. "Xu Yu came to see you last night?"
