Ghost Matchmaking: Ghost Emperor Husband and Campus Queen Wife

"Hm?"

Yun Zhenyue was a little confused. This medal must have been something Gu Yuan left behind.

’Chairman of the Board, though?’

’Don’t tell me that besides owning over a dozen properties, he’s also the chairman of some mysterious corporation?’

’It can’t just be a toy that came with the washing machine, can it?’

Yun Zhenyue finished taking the clothes out of the washing machine, dried the water from her hands, and brought the medal to the living room.

Gu Yuan was still playing his game.

Today, he was playing a niche dating sim.

Every choice led the game to a different ending.

Yun Zhenyue watched for a bit and started to feel sleepy. She wasn’t very interested in this type of game. After Gu Yuan reached a normal ending, she took out the medal and asked, "Honey, is this yours?"

"What’s that?"

Hearing her, Gu Yuan turned his head to look at the medal.

Seeing its intricate design, he took it. The medal felt a little cool to the touch, and he examined it closely.

He thought for a moment.

He recalled something from the distant past.

Only then did Gu Yuan toss the heavily worn medal to Yun Zhenyue.

"This is a board medal for Chilling Middle School."

"It’s from a long time ago. The principal there gave it to me. It felt nice to the touch, so I’d fiddle with it sometimes. Then I lost track of where I fiddled it away to and was too lazy to look for it."

"Where did you find it?"

’A Chilling Middle School board medal?’

’And it’s for the Chairman?!’

’Isn’t that even more powerful than the principal!’

Yun Zhenyue’s beautiful eyes widened in shock.

And it just so happens her next task is to study at Chilling Middle School!

"I-I-I... I found it under the washstand," Yun Zhenyue said, swallowing hard.

"No wonder. I guess it must have fallen down there when I was doing laundry," Gu Yuan replied casually, not giving it a second thought.

The real power at Chilling Middle School was firmly in the hands of that Mr. Luo.

The so-called board of directors was really just a title.

It was useful for intimidating the ghouls at the school, but that was about it.

Anyone who thought they could use it to wrestle for power with the principal was dreaming.

He wasn’t very familiar with Mr. Luo.

When he first met the principal, Gu Yuan was just an Evil Star, only a tiny bit stronger than Mr. Luo himself.

It was around that time that Mr. Luo’s daughter went missing. He commissioned Gu Yuan, hoping to use his power to find her, and gifted him this Chairman of the Board medal.

And things went exactly as Mr. Luo had hoped!

Gu Yuan possessed a vast array of abilities, with countless skills perfect for finding people!

He found Mr. Luo’s daughter with ease.

But in the end...

Gu Yuan discovered that the little girl hadn’t been abducted as Mr. Luo claimed. She had intentionally run away and didn’t want to see her father, and she begged Gu Yuan not to reveal her location.

Gu Yuan’s heart softened. He not only helped her in secret, but he also lied to Mr. Luo, claiming he couldn’t find her.

Mr. Luo was very disappointed but didn’t take back the board medal.

This was because by then, Gu Yuan had already started to make a name for himself, his divine and unpredictable methods striking fear into the hearts of all ghouls.

His organization had just been founded, but he already had countless powerful ghouls under his command. Any ghoul that provoked him, even a top-tier Evil Star stronger than he was, would be assassinated.

All the major powers treated him as a guest of honor; he was the most distinguished existence wherever he went.

Mr. Luo had originally thought of the medal as an investment.

But he never expected Gu Yuan’s power to grow at such a divine speed!

By the time he tracked Gu Yuan down again to ask for his help, the Gu Yuan of old had already become a Great Evil. He simply couldn’t afford the price to commission him a second time.

Back then, Mr. Luo still had some sense of shame. He knew he couldn’t afford the fee. Trying to fool a Great Evil with a mere medal could be considered a provocation. At that point, even if he gifted Gu Yuan the entire Chilling Middle School, he still wouldn’t be able to hire him.

But later...

Mr. Luo seemed to descend into madness!

After so long without finding his daughter, he threw all caution to the wind.

He began shamelessly pestering Gu Yuan to continue helping him.

He was so annoying it was maddening!

In any case, as long as Gu Yuan didn’t reveal himself, Mr. Luo couldn’t find him.

At this moment, Yun Zhenyue carefully handed the medal back to Gu Yuan.

"Well, honey, you should keep it safe. This medal is very precious."

"You keep it. Didn’t you just say your next task is at Chilling Middle School?" Gu Yuan didn’t take it. The thing was already so worn down; what the hell was the point of fiddling with it anymore?

"This—is for me?"

Yun Zhenyue was taken aback. The medal in her palm felt a little hot. Still, afraid that Gu Yuan would say something mushy, she ultimately had to accept it.

"Just take it and play around with it. This doesn’t count as a reward."

Gu Yuan turned back around and went back to his dating sim.

It was clear he truly didn’t care about the medal at all.

"Don’t take it too seriously. The medal is mostly symbolic."

"Showing it will definitely intimidate the ghouls at that school, but if you use it too much, you’ll attract some serious trouble."

The so-called "serious trouble," of course, referred to Mr. Luo of Chilling Middle School.

If he found out, he would surely latch onto Yun Zhenyue and beg her to help find his daughter.

Gu Yuan knew this would happen without even having to think about it.

"Will it be trouble for you, honey?" Yun Zhenyue asked, not understanding.

"It probably won’t matter for me. The main issue is you..."

Gu Yuan’s attention was drawn to a choice in his dating sim. He picked a rather extreme option, which immediately triggered a bad ending, and he sighed.

"Imagine an old man following you around all the time."

"Of course, he won’t harass you. On the contrary, he’ll be thinking of your every need. If you’re thirsty, he’ll immediately show up carrying a dozen cases of water. If you’re hungry, he’ll clear out a restaurant and have all the chefs serve only you."

"He’ll do anything for you with just a single glance."

"Everywhere you go, it’ll be a huge commotion. It might seem fine at first, but it’ll get annoying later on."

’Is he exaggerating?’

A cold sweat broke out on Yun Zhenyue’s back.

She wasn’t the type of person who liked to be in the spotlight.

’In that case, I’ll have to be very careful with this medal.’

’The old man Gu Yuan mentioned... he couldn’t be talking about the principal, could he?’

...

Upon hearing Gu Yuan and Yun Zhenyue’s conversation, the foreign audience burst out laughing, their faces filled with mockery.

[What a load of bullshit. The board of Chilling Middle School? Does he really think he’s an Evil Star?]

[Holy crap, the guy doesn’t even think before he lies. The principal of Chilling Middle School became an Evil Star a long time ago. Pestering and following *you* around? As if.]

[Exactly! Even if he weren’t seriously injured, he wouldn’t be worthy of the principal fawning over him like that!]

[I’ve heard that Chilling Middle School has a board of directors, but it’s supposed to be really mysterious. The regular members never show their faces, and I’ve never even heard of a chairman.]

[It makes no sense. Didn’t you hear what Count Dracula said? That Mr. Luo is a madman. Would he really allow someone else to hold ultimate authority in his school?]

[Besides, I heard a rumor about that principal. Apparently, he can control the entire school and has power exceeding that of a low-level Evil Star.]

[Our own Miss Sumi from the Great Cold Country only managed to get a regular board member’s badge, and her fiancé is a top-tier Crimson-robed Ghost Minotaur! Gu Yuan? Is he even worthy?]

[That medal is definitely a fake. If it’s real, I’ll eat it!]
