Immediately, Tu Hengchuan's fans in the live stream split into two opposing views regarding the interaction between the two.

On one hand, some people felt that Tu Hengchuan and Su Ping had great chemistry and even edited a video of them interacting overnight. On the other hand, some people felt that Su Ping approached Tu Hengchuan with ulterior motives and was extremely cunning.

The live stream was filled with noise, but the two offline remained silent and walked into Xiuzhi's room side by side.

This room...

Su Ping felt something was off, and just then, the NPCs' voices suddenly rang out.

"Can't you see it's about to rain? What are you doing there? Don't you know you can't burn paper money inside the mansion?"

"Shh, don't speak. I'm really scared. Xiuzhi died under mysterious circumstances, and Aniu is dead too. Today is Xiuzhi's seventh day memorial. I'm afraid she'll come back to haunt us..."

Su Ping's mind went blank for a moment, and a chill suddenly spread from the soles of her feet to the top of her head.

Is today the seventh day after the death of the maid Xiuzhi?

Just then, another bolt of lightning flashed outside. Su Ping and Tu Hengchuan subconsciously looked into the courtyard, and their expressions suddenly turned grim.

When that lightning struck, it was clearly visible not only inside the yard but also outside the window.

There was clearly a silhouette of a woman on it, slowly walking towards us.

In just a few steps, the woman would turn around and go inside.

She wasn't walking; she was floating, but very slowly, as if she were being restrained by something.

The fans in the live stream clearly saw the shadow and were so frightened that they dared not utter a sound.

"FrogFun, what dirty thing did I just see?"

"Has the ghost of that dead maid really returned?"

"That's terrifying! Mom! I need the barrage of comments to protect me...!"

Immediately, everyone in the live stream chat started spamming colorful comments, almost filling the entire screen.

That's just how people are; even though they're afraid, they can't control their curiosity.

Despite being too scared to open their eyes, their stubbornness made them squint and hold their breath, staring at the screen, afraid of missing any exciting moment.

Su Ping felt a chill run down her spine; she knew that the two sentences they had just exchanged were a reminder that Xiuzhi's ghost had returned.

Suddenly, a strange voice rang out, seemingly carrying both laughter and a sob.

"Huh..."

After the woman's eerie voice rang out, Su Ping couldn't care less about anything else. She quickly grabbed Tu Hengchuan's hand and ran towards the row of cabinets opposite the bed.

Who's in my room?

A woman's excited voice rang out, but Su Ping found that she couldn't open the cabinet in front of her no matter what she tried.

The production team really went to great lengths to set up the props, giving people hope only to crush it away.

This row of cabinets is clearly a good place to hide and escape from ghosts, but they are deliberately made so that they cannot open them!

At the critical moment, Tu Hengchuan saw a separate cabinet on the other side of the bed.

He grabbed Su Ping and ran over there. With a creak, the cabinet door actually opened.

The cabinet door in front of them was quite narrow; it would be more than enough for one person to go in, but it would definitely be a bit crowded for two people, not to mention that Tu Hengchuan was so tall.

But the two of them couldn't care less about that now. Seeing that Xiuzhi's ghost was about to enter the room, Tu Hengchuan went into the Ghost Gate first.

Su Ping stared dumbfounded at Tu Hengchuan, who had left her outside and crawled into the closet.

Isn't this guy afraid of getting struck by lightning for doing this?

He hid inside, what was she supposed to do?

She shouldn't have softened her heart and agreed to come here with him; now this man is kicking her while she's down.

Although she wasn't afraid of the NPC disguised as a ghost outside, she still felt a little sad being abandoned by her teammates.

"What are you standing there for? Don't let her see you..."

After adjusting his position, Tu Hengchuan saw Su Ping standing there motionless and couldn't help but urge her on.

Su Ping rolled her eyes at his hypocritical words.

He's taken up the only place she could hide; where is she supposed to hide? Go to bed, cover herself with the blanket, and deceive herself?

Just two seconds before the female ghost turned around, Tu Hengchuan reached out and grabbed Su Ping's wrist, pulling her into the closet.

Then he quickly pulled the cabinet door shut.

After being pulled into the wardrobe, Su Ping bumped into Tu Hengchuan's arms and suddenly felt a little dizzy.

The space inside the cabinet was really cramped. Su Ping had barely moved her head when Tu Hengchuan pressed her down tightly.

Hearing the pounding of his heart, Su Ping swallowed hard, remaining motionless as he was held tightly in his arms.

When the fans and viewers in the live stream saw Tu Hengchuan pull Su Ping into the cabinet, they all started screaming.

"Brother Chuan actually pulled her inside! This is like something out of an idol drama!"

"Okay, I admit I yelled at Brother Chuan a bit too loudly when he went into the closet. Sorry!"

"Am I the only one wondering what they were doing in the closet? There were no cameras inside! And it was so narrow, the two of them must have been standing very close together."

"So close together? Didn't you see that Brother Chuan had already pulled her into his arms when he closed the cabinet door? Damn it, today is another day of envying ordinary fans..."

Unlike the ambiguous and tense atmosphere in the live broadcast room, Su Ping, who was huddled in the closet with Tu Hengchuan, felt somewhat awkward.

It wasn't that she disliked Tu Hengchuan, but the two had only met for the first time today, and they were already hugging so closely; she felt something was off.

Thankfully, there were no cameras here, otherwise she would definitely be drowned in spittle from Tu Hengchuan's female fans tomorrow.

"She's come in."

Through the crack in the cabinet door, Tu Hengchuan saw the woman enter the room after a clap of thunder.

The woman was disheveled, her hair was loose, and she walked in an odd way, still in the gruesome state she had been in before her death.

The female ghost glanced slowly at the empty room, then suddenly grinned: "Strange, I just heard someone in here, but I didn't see them."

Are you playing hide-and-seek with me?

After the woman finished speaking, she dragged her heavy steps and began searching the room.

Using the occasional flashes of lightning outside as a guide, Tu Hengchuan held his breath and watched Xiuzhi's ghost walk toward the bed.

She pulled back the covers on the bed and tilted her head in disappointment at the two pillows underneath.

Where is it?

She muttered to herself, then suddenly bent down to look under the bed.

"Not here? You're quite good at hiding, don't let me find you..."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and suddenly looked at the row of wardrobes.

It was the wardrobe that Su Ping hadn't opened earlier.
