(Seven Updates) 273: Chapter 274: Are You a Ghost?

(Seven Updates) The sound carried through, and everyone competing in the area was stunned.

Had someone burst in?

Jiang Weiwei and the others paused in disbelief when they heard the voice.

It sounded so much like Tang Zhong’s voice, didn’t it?

“Weiwei, this voice, it sounds like Tang Zhong’s voice!” Li Chuwen said to Jiang Weiwei.

“I think it sounds like him too!” Wu Xiaoyu chimed in.

Jiang Weiwei also thought it sounded like him, but it shouldn’t be—after all, the international police had already reported that Tang Zhong had been killed.

At this moment, the event staff appeared, smiling at everyone and saying, “There’s been a little incident outside, we’ll handle it now.

The competition will continue!”

No one thought much of it.

Jiang Weiwei and her group’s faces fell once more, certain they would lose the competition now.

What a pity.

“Sorry, Tang Zhong,” Jiang Weiwei thought to herself.

“I didn’t have the ability to make your work first place.”

“Come on, Weiwei, don’t blame yourself.

There’s nothing we could do.

How could we compete with that MJ company with all their money and influence, bribing the judges?” Li Chuwen consoled.

As the competition went on,

Number 10 also raised their card; among these ten, only numbers 2 and 8 scored the best, surpassing three judges’ votes.

That meant, from these ten, only numbers 2 and 8 made it through to the finals.

Mike glanced over at the dejected group from Leya International, his expression growing more ferocious, “Too green to fight with me!” he muttered.

Then Mike looked at the host and said, “The results are in; announce them already, we’re all waiting here!”

“Yes!” chimed in the representatives of the two companies that had advanced, eager for the finals, their spirits high.

Seeing this, the host picked up the microphone, smiling as he began, “And now, I announce that advancing to the finals from this group is…”

But before he could finish,

There were screams.

Everyone’s attention was instantly drawn; at the entrance to the exhibit area, several security guards flew in, as if they’d been beaten up, along with the event organizers who had gone out to maintain order.

A group of people lay on the ground, crying out in pain.

“Call the police…

quick, call the police!”

“Someone is fighting!”

“Ah!”

All eyes were on the door, wondering who had the audacity to fight in such a place.

At that moment, at the exhibit, a foot appeared first, and then a body followed.

The person was Tang Zhong, who cursed, “I said I was here for the competition, why are you blocking my way?”

By now, the competitors at the exhibit had all seen Tang Zhong.

Everyone from Leya International was dumbfounded.

Jiang Weiwei’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked ahead, thinking she was seeing things.

“Weiwei, I see Tang Zhong.

Are you seeing the same thing I am?” Li Chuwen gasped.

“I see him too!” said Wu Xiaoyu.

“Yeah, me too!” added the others.

But how could Tang Zhong be alive when the international police had shot him dead?

It was impossible.

At this moment, Tang Zhong walked in and immediately noticed the group from Leya International, waving his hand at them.

“Hey, I’m back!” he called out.

All the people from Leya International panicked, clinging together instinctively.

“Weiwei, did you see?

He’s waving at us!” Li Chuwen said.

“I saw!” Jiang Weiwei was frightened too.

“No, this can’t be right.

There are no ghosts in this world; I have to believe in science.

This must be fake!” Li Chuwen murmured to herself, then she brought her fingers together and started to chant, “Namo Amitabha…

may the Buddha bless us, Saint Lord protect us!”

Tang Zhong, noticing that no one was returning his greeting, grew frustrated.

When he reached the group from Leya International,

“Hey, how come you all look like you don’t recognize me?” Tang Zhong asked.

The people from Laiya International gasped when they saw Tang Zhong approaching and immediately were too scared to look at him.

“Don’t…

don’t come over here!” Li Chuwen exclaimed.

“Sir Tang, please spare our lives.

You rest easy down below, on holidays I’ll burn money for you!”

“Yes, that’s right!”

Hearing this, Tang Zhong was somewhat taken aback.

What burning money?

He realized that these people must have thought he died in the plane explosion that day.

Right then, Tang Zhong looked at Li Chuwen, who was the most frightened, and thinking it would be fun to tease her, he moved closer and said with a chuckle, “Black stockings girl…”

Li Chuwen grew even more frightened, “You…

don’t come any closer!”

“I’m so lonely down below; I need a girl in black stockings to keep me company.

You look just fine for that!” Tang Zhong said.

“You’re really going to come over…” This time, Li Chuwen was scared into crying, “Don’t come over, please.”

The people nearby felt sorry for Li Chuwen, who seemed to have caught the eye of Tang Zhong the ghost.

Jiang Weiwei was initially scared too, but upon hearing Tang Zhong speak, she thought the guy was a total asshole—turned into a ghost and still lusting over black stockings, despicable.

Tang Zhong, who hated seeing tears, was bewildered when he saw Li Chuwen like this, “Don’t…

don’t cry, what are you crying for?

I was just joking with you!”

Joking?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

“I’m not a ghost; I’m a living person, really alive!” Tang Zhong spun around several times on the spot.

At that point, the people from Laiya International dared to look at Tang Zhong again.

“You’re alive?” Jiang Weiwei asked Tang Zhong in disbelief.

“Yeah, if you don’t believe me, feel for yourself; my face, it’s warm!” Tang Zhong insisted.

“Ah!” Jiang Weiwei was reluctant to touch him.

“I’m really alive, if you don’t believe it, touch me!” This time, Tang Zhong grabbed Jiang Weiwei’s hand and moved it toward his face.

“Ah!” Jiang Weiwei screamed, fearful, for if this were a ghost, it would mean disaster.

But the moment her hand touched Tang Zhong’s face, she could feel his warmth.

This made her lose her fear, understanding that anything with warmth definitely isn’t a ghost.

So, this Tang Zhong in front of her was a living person.

“You’re still alive!” Jiang Weiwei cried out in astonishment, as sweet as tasting honey.

“Right.” Tang Zhong responded.

“That’s wonderful!” Jiang Weiwei said excitedly, then went forward to give Tang Zhong a hug.

Tang Zhong was stunned, but a hug from a beauty was indeed pleasant.

At this moment, Li Chuwen, who had been crying from fear, realized upon seeing Jiang Weiwei’s actions that the guy was fooling them, which was utterly vile.

“You…

you jerk, you tricked me!” Li Chuwen, upset, went to pull Tang Zhong away.

Tang Zhong, who was enjoying the hug, was forcibly separated.

“Hey hey, I was just messing around.

Who knew you’d be so scared!” Tang Zhong protested.

“You…” Li Chuwen was at a loss for words.

Wu Xiaoyu stood aside, thrilled to see Tang Zhong alive, but didn’t dare to embrace him the way Jiang Weiwei did.

Otherwise, she would have rushed over already.

Then Tang Zhong stopped paying attention to Li Chuwen and turned to Jiang Weiwei, “I heard our competition didn’t even make it to the finals.

Is that true?”

“It is!” Jiang Weiwei was about to ask Tang Zhong if he was killed by someone, but when Tang Zhong asked her that, she immediately answered.

“I need to see this for myself; who’s keeping me from the finals?” Tang Zhong said with a smile.

At that moment, Mike from MJ Company came over.

He hadn’t intended to come, but seeing the intruder was from Laiya International, he felt he had to come and speak his mind.

Standing in the center, he addressed the others, still not satisfied after that kick from earlier.

“You’ve certainly got guts, daring to break in here.

Do you know what place this is?

This is where the elite of fashion gather, not somewhere for street trash like you!” Mike berated directly.

Then he continued to lambast Laiya International, “President Jiang, is this guy really one of Laiya International’s employees?

So bold, attacking the organizer.

I’ve really seen it all now, haha, Laiya International, so formidable indeed.”

“Go wherever it’s cool and stay there.

We at Laiya International know full well how formidable we are.

I came here to take first place.

Got any nonsense, go spout it somewhere else!” Tang Zhong cursed back.

“You…” Mike began.

“Scram!” Tang Zhong cut him off.

Then, without giving Mike another glance, Tang Zhong steadily walked towards the judges’ table, under everyone’s watchful eyes, and said, “Come on, let me see, who are the judges!”
