C5 Backstage

"If I remember correctly, Fong Wan called you Yu Moxiang that night."

Being asked so abruptly by Meng Xiaobai, Yu Moxiang, who had always treated others with a cold face, couldn't help but laugh, but he only smiled lightly.

"Yu Moxiang, I hope you can remember this name."

Just as Yu Moxiang was about to get up, Meng Xiaobai hurriedly grabbed his hand and held him down.

"Wait a minute, I still have a lot of questions to ask you!"

"Oh?"

Yu Moxiang raised his eyebrows slightly and crossed his legs. His expression was relaxed and indifferent.

"I heard from my family that I have a pair of Yin Yang eyes. But why can I only see those things after my twentieth birthday?"

As Meng Xiaobai said this, she casually pointed to a person sitting four rows away and said, "He's actually not human. I don't know if his goal is good or bad."

Yu Moxiang seemed to be very interested in Meng Xiaobai's question. He immediately said, "It's not surprising. There are a lot of people in this world who have the Yin Yang Eye. As for your question, I think you should go back and ask your family. They probably know more than me."

Meng Xiaobai's eyes suddenly darkened, "I don't have any family left. My only grandmother, who loves me dearly, also went to the Western Elysian World five years ago."

"Sorry."

Yu Moxiang's deep voice sounded in her ear. Meng Xiaobai was stunned. When she looked over, Yu Moxiang quickly avoided her gaze.

Meng Xiaobai only smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm already used to it, and I urgently need you to teach me about your world."

Yu Moxiang stood up and said in a cold voice, "The world that doesn't belong to you is dangerous. For now, all you need to do is keep your life."

There were still many questions in Meng Xiaobai's heart. Although she really wanted to keep Yu Moxiang here, she was still afraid of him.

After all, the two of them weren't from the same world, and in front of Yu Moxiang, she was still far too weak.

"Give me your contact information. If you want to know more about Fong Wan, I'll help you find out!"

Yu Moxiang suddenly stopped in his tracks. When he turned around, he glanced at Meng Xiaobai, then turned around and disappeared into the night.

Meng Xiaobai looked down and was surprised to find a black postcard in her hand.

She turned on the flashlight on her phone and saw that the black postcard had an indescribable eeriness to it. It was bald without a single word.

The only thing that he could see with his naked eyes was the extremely small and simple address on the bottom right corner of the postcard.

"I want your phone number, not your address!"

As Meng Xiaobai complained, she reached out and stuffed the postcard into her bag.

At this moment, the large stage below the audience stage was already filled with lights. After an opening speech, the banquet soon began.

After a few dance performances, there were some crosstalk and skit performances.

To Meng Xiaobai, who had always liked to eat fast food, she did not have much endurance for such a long and happy source.

Feeling bored, Meng Xiaobai squeezed down from the audience with her bag and walked towards the back of the stage.

As a member of the department's organization department, although it was time for the gala performance, it was the busiest time for the backstage staff.

Meng Xiaobai planned to find Xiaoyu and see if there was anything she could help with.

The backstage was the most chaotic, and Momoyu was extremely busy. Seeing that, Meng Xiaobai did not want to help them, so she could only stroll around the backstage alone.

Due to the stadium, although there were a few rooms connected to the backstage, most of them were already filled with professional machines.

The only thing that allowed Meng Xiaobai to stay and play for a while was a rooftop near the backstage.

The night wind was refreshing. Meng Xiaobai sat down on the rooftop and leaned against the marble wall behind her, looking at the student stands not far away.

Marble never seemed to get hot, and Meng Xiaobai couldn't help but think of the Ghost Child she met outside the dormitory that day.

A chill suddenly rose in her heart, and she couldn't help but shiver.

Following that, the audience in the opposite stands burst into thunderous applause, but Meng Xiaobai was stunned.

She could hear that after the applause, there seemed to be a mournful cry mixed in.

Listening carefully, Meng Xiaobai became even more certain of her thoughts.

Searching for the source of life, Meng Xiaobai finally stopped outside a remote bathroom in the backstage.

The shrill cries echoed in her ears. As it was night time, the bathroom gave off a sinister and terrifying feeling.

Just as she was hesitating about whether she should push open the door and take a look, even though Meng Xiaobai knew better than anyone that this strange cry was most likely coming from a ghost.

However, to Meng Xiaobai, her greatest problem right now was that she had lost her way in her Yin Yang eyes.

She had to overcome her fear and fear of absurdity. She had to find the answer she wanted from it.

Before her finger touched the door handle, a man's voice suddenly came from the bathroom.

Meng Xiaobai was stunned for a moment before quickly retracting her hand.

"Mei, come back with me. I will protect you and our child..."

The man's voice was sincere, and there was no fear in it.

The woman stopped crying and laughed in a low voice. Then she spoke in a soft voice, "You and I are separated by life and death. What a joke. What a joke."

The man's voice sounded again, "It doesn't matter. I will cast the martial art tomorrow. Even if I have to use the forbidden martial art, even if I have to go against the heavens, I will make you stay with me forever!"

"Who is outside?"

At this moment, the woman's voice suddenly became louder, causing Meng Xiaobai, who was standing outside the door, to tremble.

At this moment, he could not care about anything else as he dragged the bag in his hand and ran out.

Unfortunately, the bathroom was quite a distance away from the backstage. At this moment, Meng Xiaobai was filled with regret.

Why did he have to come to such a far place to relieve his boredom?

Suddenly, a long-furred arrow flew into the air and stabbed into the ground beside Meng Xiaobai's feet.

Meng Xiaobai's heart suddenly thumped. She knew that she would not be able to escape today, so she could only stop.

Suddenly, he turned his head and saw an old man with a pale white beard less than ten meters away from him. He was staring at Meng Xiaobai with a gloomy expression.

Meng Xiaobai turned his head and saw the woman standing in the darkness.

The woman had short hair and a pale face. The color of her clothes could not be seen.

However, Meng Xiaobai knew that this woman was definitely not alive.

"Who is it? What did you hear?!"

The old man's tone was extremely cold. From Meng Xiaobai's point of view, he was actually on par with Yu Moxiang.

"Me? I was just passing by. As for what the two of you said, I really didn't hear it."

Meng Xiaobai explained as she retreated.

However, the old man's expression suddenly turned gloomy at this moment.

"You, how did you know there were two people here? Could it be that you can see Mei?"

Meng Xiaobai suddenly realized that she had been careless, so she could only awkwardly explain, "If you know how to speak, then just pretend I didn't say anything."

The old man's face was filled with disbelief as he pulled out a sharp arrow from his back, "I don't want any more delays. Miss, I'm sorry!"

With that, the old man's killing intent rushed towards Meng Xiaobai.

Meng Xiaobai broke into a run, but unfortunately, her physical strength was not as strong as a man's, so the old man caught up to her.

A sharp arrow shot down, causing Meng Xiaobai to feel a chill in front of her eyes.

She closed her eyes tightly and fell to the ground, but the surroundings became quiet.

When he opened his eyes again, the old man was kneeling on the ground, covering his face in pain. And in front of Meng Xiaobai, there was a woman in white lying on the ground.

Looking carefully, it was actually the female ghost in short clothes.

"Changming, don't let yourself get deeper and deeper into this for me. This will only increase the distance between us!"

At this time, Meng Xiaobai finally saw the woman's face clearly. Her facial features were extremely beautiful, but they were somewhat exaggeratedly pale.

The woman cried as she crawled to the man's side, "You are a Daoist priest, so you shouldn't waste any more time on me. This will only harm yourself."

The woman tried her best to persuade the man. As she turned her head to look fiercely at Meng Xiaobai, she scolded, "Hurry up and leave!"

Meng Xiaobai stood up from the ground and suppressed the fear in her heart. She then said, "What happened between the two of you?"

The female ghost's eyes were extremely red, and she was filled with killing intent as she continued to threaten, "If you don't want me to kill you, then hurry up and leave!"

Meng Xiaobai wanted to unravel the secret on her body, so she said unwillingly, "I have the Yin Yang Eye, so I can see you. Perhaps, I can really help you with something, as long as you believe me!"

When the short-haired female ghost heard this, red tears flowed out of her eyes in an instant.

When Xu Changming saw this, his hands trembled as he fumbled around his body in a flurry.

After a long while, he finally took out a packet of wet tissues from his jacket pocket. He roughly opened it and squeezed out three or four of them.

He handed them to the short-haired ghost girl and said in a pleading voice, "Mei, don't cry. If you cry, my heart will ache."

When the short-haired female ghost heard this, she roared towards the sky. Suddenly, she turned her head to look at Meng Xiaobai behind her with her blood-red eyes.

Meng Xiaobai was stunned and began to regret.

Perhaps it was because of her impulsiveness that she said those words.

From the bottom of her heart, she truly wanted to help these two lovers who could not be loved.

Although Meng Xiaobai knew that she was overestimating herself, she still hoped that the couple could be together forever.

"You probably don't know how sinful I am, killing without blinking an eye. If you don't leave now, I'll eat you today!"

The short-haired female ghost, who had a weak and miserable look just a moment ago, now looked at Meng Xiaobai with a bit more killing intent in her eyes.
