Ji Qian thought she was having a bad day. In five years in the entertainment industry, she was still a barely known, faded starlet, with a pile of weird black gossip accusations. Recently, people e...
The male ghost fell into the well and didn't come up. Ji Qian waited for a while, then suddenly remembered 'Spring Flower in the Well' and thought to herself, "Oh no, did I put a mouse in the rice jar?"
Ji Qian ran to the well and peered inside, but there was still no movement. In a panic, she was about to step inside when Han Mengyao, who had been standing nearby, quickly ran over and pulled her back.
"Wait, let's try throwing something down first."
Throw something...? Ji Qian subconsciously turned to look at Xu Qi and the 50% male ghost, but Han Mengyao quickly turned her head back:
"I mean, try throwing in some inorganic matter!"
"Does a ghost have organic properties?"
"This half should be... right?"
Is this something I can say?
【Aaaaaaah, Yao Yao, what are you saying with your innocent face?!】
I'm dirty...
I felt the world suddenly turn a dim yellow.
Ji Qian thought Han Mengyao's words made sense: throw away inorganic materials first, and if that doesn't work, then throw away other materials.
Others (Xu Qi, 50% male ghost): Thank you!
To be fair, the production team did a good job of cleaning. Ji Qian searched the backyard but found nothing, so she had to break off a tree branch, tie it to the remaining rope, and throw it into the well.
Ji Qian deliberately used a bit of skill when throwing the branch, thinking that even if she couldn't find the male ghost, pricking something would be an unexpected bonus.
"Aaaaaaaahh ...
What's even stranger is that there was a hint of pleasure mixed in with the man's screams.
Ji Qian began to pull the rope upwards. As the rope was gradually pulled up, a burly man with a tree branch stuck to his buttocks was hoisted up.
The burly man had a ruddy complexion and looked like a living person, but he appeared at the bottom of the well.
For a moment, Ji Qian was unsure whether the other person was alive or dead. She turned to look at Han Mengyao, who understood and took off her glasses before shaking her head at Ji Qian.
Ji Qian understood Han Mengyao's meaning and couldn't help but exclaim, "This is truly the most lifelike ghost I've ever seen!"
The burly man appeared strong, but was actually quite frail.
Ji Qian lifted the burly man to the ground by the well. He groaned the whole time, and Ji Qian even vaguely heard a few soft moans. Her movements unconsciously became a little rougher, and the burly man breathed even harder.
Director Liu felt that the live stream might be shut down at any moment if things continued like this, so he quickly turned on the microphone again to remind Ji Qian: "Don't let him breathe!"
Ji Qian ignored him. Seeing that Ji Qian was unmoved, Director Liu quickly added, "I'll give you an extra 200. Don't let him catch his breath!"
Encouraged by the red envelope, Ji Qian twisted the rope into a ball and stuffed it into the strong man's mouth. Then, she grabbed the branch that was still stuck in the strong man's buttocks and pulled hard, pulling it out directly.
"Ugh! Ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh~" The burly man made a whimpering sound. Han Mengyao went to look at him and found that there were crystal tears streaming down his face.
Ji Qian threw the tree branch aside, squatted down in front of the burly man with the kitchen knife in hand, and said, "I'll get the rope out for you. You'd better answer my questions obediently and not make any more strange noises!"
The burly man nodded, tears streaming down his face. Only then did Ji Qian pull the rope away. As soon as his mouth was freed, the burly man immediately began to sob.
"Waaaah, what are you guys doing? I'm so scared!"
The burly man, who had just spoken with a normal male voice, suddenly transformed into a soft, feminine voice, sounding even more charming than that of an ordinary woman.
Ji Qian felt a chill, but considering the male ghost who had disappeared at the bottom of the well, she still dutifully asked, "Where is the half-person who just fell into the well?"
"Huh? You mean Brother Hai?"
The burly man blinked, and Ji Qian strangely saw a hint of innocence in his face. She suddenly had a bad feeling.
"You...you're not named Chunhua, are you?"
"Sister knows me too!"
The burly man's expression brightened instantly, and his tense shoulders relaxed. He winked at Ji Qian, who felt completely numb.
"Have you met Hai-gege...?" Han Mengyao felt her gossipy nature stirring.
Upon hearing this, the burly man immediately became anxious: "That's my brother Hai!"
When Ji Qian heard the burly man yelling at Han Mengyao, she held the kitchen knife to his neck. The burly man's momentum instantly weakened, and he lay on the ground and began to sob.
Ji Qian's head ached from his crying, so she patted the burly man's face with the back of her knife, which immediately silenced him.
Seeing that he had become obedient, Ji Qian repeated Han Mengyao's question, and the burly man finally answered with a pitiful expression:
"This is the first time I've met Brother Hai. But he comes to the wellhead every day to talk to me."
After saying this, the burly man's face flushed slightly, making Ji Qian extremely uncomfortable, but she hadn't forgotten the important matter: "Then why didn't your brother Hai come up with you?"
Ji Qian's question seemed to touch on the strong man's painful memories, and even his voice became less firm: "After Brother Hai saw me, he stopped talking. I asked him to carry me up with me, but he refused."
Seeing his dejected look, Ji Qian even wanted to comfort him, but the next second the burly man became shy again: "Brother Hai, you're really too shy to hug me, even though I already agreed to it."
Is this... a ghost version of online dating scam?
[Brother Hai and Sister Hua are having such a fun time!]
Sister Hua, do you think it's possible that Hai Ge isn't shy, but rather afraid?
I'm such a country bumpkin, even ghosts are too trendy for me.
[Hilarious! The attempt to meet in person through a well backfired.]
