Chapter 484: Chapter 318. Visit (4000 words)
Night fell quickly.
After dinner, both Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai had changed into their homely pajamas.
As mentioned earlier, Beichuan Si had no intention of sharing a big blanket with Shen Gu Mirai to sleep; instead, he had the servants bring over bedding, with Shen Gu Mirai in the inner room and Beichuan Si in the outer room, sleeping in separate areas.
However, neither of them was in the mood to sleep just yet.
Beichuan Si intended to clear out his private message inbox, which he hadn’t looked at for a long time, while Shen Gu Mirai was so excited by the mere presence of Beichuan Si in the same room that she couldn’t fall asleep at all.
This girl had always been like this, once she was certain that nothing was going to happen to her, she would become utterly uncontrollable.
As for the other two, Nishijou Kurenai and Shenzhu Shihui...
One of them was doing pull-ups off the edge of the coffee table while the other was reciting tongue twisters in a whisper.
This room didn’t seem like an atmosphere conducive to sleep either.
"Mr. Temple! What are you doing?" Shen Gu Mirai, wearing beige pajamas, sat on Beichuan Si’s quilt, curiously watching his fingers moving swiftly across the phone screen.
"Clearing out my private message inbox," Beichuan Si looked up, "Do you want to see?"
Shen Gu Mirai leaned in even closer, her mouth continuously responding, "I want to see, I want to see! Of course, I want to see!"
What could Beichuan Si’s private message inbox look like?
Based on the popularity of Beichuan Si’s urban spiritual tales homepage, it was estimated that there could be seven to eight hundred messages accumulated.
Shen Gu Mirai leaned close to Beichuan Si, her little head nudging towards him.
In fact, there was no need to squeeze in; there was plenty of space, and Shen Gu Mirai wasn’t short-sighted...
But seeing Shen Gu Mirai apparently very satisfied with this posture, Beichuan Si just gave her an extra glance with an expressionless face and didn’t speak out to stop her.
He only reminded her, "The content of the private messages might not be very interesting."
After saying this, Beichuan Si quickly updated some photos and short videos of what he saw and heard in the Ghost House Spiritual Realm, then began to sift through the private messages in his inbox.
Beichuan Si was swift and experienced, as usual, deleting the worthless messages and preserving those that might be of reference value.
His movements were quick, but Shen Gu Mirai grew increasingly apprehensive and upset as she watched.
Contrary to the laudatory messages she had pictured, a considerable part of these messages contained malicious slander and venomous insults aimed at Beichuan Si.
Seeking attention, poor Photoshop skills, lack of interest, buying fake traffic to promote his homepage...
There were even a few messages that outright started cursing Beichuan Si.
"Are these all people hired to slander Mr. Temple?" Shen Gu Mirai couldn’t help but murmur twice.
A good number of the aggressive messages were sent by the same account, and the high degree of repetition made it clear at a glance that these were cyberbullies for hire.
"Perhaps," Beichuan Si didn’t care and calmly deleted all those messages.
"Aren’t you angry, Mr. Temple?" Shen Gu Mirai, seeing Beichuan Si’s almost unflappable demeanor, couldn’t help but ask.
Beichuan Si nodded then shook his head, pondering before replying,
"It’s not that I’m not angry, but I’ve realized that getting angry is pointless, so I can only adjust my mindset accordingly."
Indeed, since getting angry was futile, why waste the emotion and throw unnecessary tantrums?
Shen Gu Mirai knew this too, but she found it extremely difficult to swallow her pride.
"To slander when outmatched, to insult in private messages, such tactics are just despicable."
Shen Gu Mirai muttered softly.
"In reality, there are such people in real life too," Beichuan Si said, waving his hand calmly.
Undoubtedly, those who are jealous of others and believe that by bringing others down, they themselves will get noticed are everywhere.
But in truth, even if they managed to ruin someone else’s reputation, they themselves would remain the same, without any improvement.
"Compared to such things..." Beichuan Si mused.
"Compared to what?" Shen Gu Mirai blinked her beautiful eyes, instinctively following along.
"Compared to that, I’d rather rest now. There’s stuff to do tomorrow." Beichuan Si plugged in his phone charger and then turned to Nishijou Kurenai and Shenzhu Shihui, greeting them, "You two should wrap it up as well; it’s late and time to rest."
Under Beichuan Si’s gaze, Shenzhu Shihui and Nishijou Kurenai quickly stopped what they were doing, evidently not the first time Beichuan Si had reminded them.
Shen Gu Mirai was no exception, she lay down heavily, eyes fixed on the ceiling.
Her mind was turbulent.
Although seeing those messages had upset her, what Beichuan Si said was true.
Instead of getting upset about such things, it was better to think about happy things—
Like where she would go sightseeing with Beichuan Si tomorrow.
She tossed and turned, still somewhat unable to sleep, thinking about going out to see Beichuan Si... but then felt it might be improper; what if Beichuan Si was already asleep?
Shen Gu Mirai stayed wide-eyed—
And so the night went by...
The next day, Beichuan Si woke up on time, guided by his biological clock.
He followed his routine for washing up, eating...
But something felt odd.
Beichuan Si set down his chopsticks and looked at the clock.
It was already past eight o’clock, but Shen Gu Mirai showed no sign of waking up.
The meeting time agreed with the Hayakawa Family was ten o’clock, but in reality, they needed to set off earlier.
