Chapter 01
Gong Jun saw the ghost for the first time on a summer night in May.
Humming and laughter swayed in the evening wind, and when the wind picked up, a piece of fresh green sycamore fell on his shoulders.
He held onto the sycamore leaf, looked up at the crooked neck tree, and looked at the ghost sitting on the branch.
It was a very handsome male ghost, leaning against the green leaves of the trees rustling in the wind, his affectionate eyes seemed to be full of stars, just looking at him quietly, smiling happily with the corners of his mouth curled up.
The moment their eyes met in the moonlight, the ghost was so startled that he hid in the leaves, but he couldn't escape the scorching gaze of the man under the tree chasing him.
He couldn't laugh anymore, so he embarrassedly called Sister Hong who was standing under the tree, and asked what was going on, how could he see ghosts?
Sister Hong is also a ghost. She drifted past in the evening breeze, and collided with Gong Jun. Her soul scattered and gathered loosely like mist. you."
Ghost has known Gong Jun for a long time.
Gong Jun is the owner of the hot pot restaurant in the old street in the south of the city. He looks like a handsome guy who should not be approached by strangers, but he is cheerful and foolish all day long.
Gong Jun seemed to be a pistachio grown by stepping on the little joy on the tip of the ghost's heart. Every time the ghost saw his carefree smile, he felt inexplicably happy.
The ghost has nowhere to go, and sleeps on the old sycamore tree at the entrance of the alley every night. This is also the only way for Gong Jun to go home after closing the shop at night.He often leaned against the tree to watch the tall man with long legs walk, and when he occasionally stumbled or hummed out of tune, the ghost would laugh non-stop.
The ghost never thought that one day he would be caught by Gong Jun.
Still listening to the man humming the happy birthday song.
The ghost who has been wandering in the world for three years has never done this kind of thing before, but he just stayed on the tree at a loss and looked at the man, seeing the man's deep and handsome eyebrows and eyes as outlined by ink, which made him strange. Extremely sad.
Looking more closely, it looks more like complicated emotions caused by astonishment, directly connected to the trembling of the soul, opening his mouth tentatively but unable to form a sentence, even the cake in his hand hit the ground, and a puddle of cream fell from the paper. The box overflowed, filled with moonlight, and climbed onto the man's clean white canvas shoes.
dirty.
The ghost got up in a panic, and he yelled at Sister Hong: "What should I do? I scared him like this."
It turned out that the big fool who loves to laugh so much on weekdays is a coward, the ghost sighed in his heart.
But this is considered a normal human reaction, who can bear to see a ghost smiling at him in the middle of the night in the tree.
The coward looked like he was about to cry.
He looked at Gong Jun's flushed eyes, and the tears in them seemed to burst the embankment with a gust of gentle wind, causing a heavy rain.
Ghosts can't see people crying, let alone Gong Jun crying.
He only hoped that this person could show him a smirk every day, for the joy of this extremely boring lonely ghost.
"This kid won't scare you into a fool, right? Why didn't he run away after bumping into a ghost, and let him take root here?" Sister Hong also wondered.
"Let me run away, I can't bear to scare a big man into crying."
The ghost jumped down from the tree angrily, but he didn't expect Gong Jun to greet him.
He looked at Gong Jun's arm stretched out to him in amazement, and didn't dodge it, just wiped the man's body like a mist, drifting away and gathering again.
The ghost heard Gong Jun muttering something in a low voice. The man's voice was already low, and the whisper was choked in his throat, so the ghost couldn't hear it clearly.
The moment he turned around, he saw the man's wet eyes, and a part of his heart seemed to have collapsed. The ghost who had lost his five senses for a long time felt a pain in his chest, which made him feel a little bit of the feeling of being a human being in the past.
—Hey, idiot, don't cry.
He wanted to speak to comfort Gong Jun, but he was afraid that he would scare the man even more.
In the end, the ghost didn't say anything, just wandered away in the evening wind.
Find a place to hide.
Hide where you won't see fools shed tears.
