Nanyuan Residential Area, Beijing.
The bathroom was filled with steam.
Lawyer Nie Weixing was humming a song while scrubbing himself with a bath towel.
In the spacious bedroom, his wife lay on the bed, dressed in trendy little clothes and pants that barely covered her body, revealing her curves.
Like a morning glory that has bloomed many times, waiting for Nie Weixing to pick it after he has taken a bath.
Nie Weixing recently took on a tough case and has been busy for over a month. Every day when he gets home, he collapses into bed and has no time to think about anything else.
I finally won the case in court today, and I'm in a great mood, so I wanted to go with my wife.
Knock knock knock.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Nie Weixing's wife, Zhou Li, initially didn't want to respond, but the knocking continued for a long time.
Zhou Li reluctantly put on a long pajama coat, walked to the door, and asked, "Who is it?"
"Hello, delivery guy, condoms."
"Takeout? Condoms?"
Zhou Li was confused.
When did I order takeout, and why did I order condoms?
She shouted at her husband, Nie Weixing, who was taking a shower in the bathroom, "Honey, did you buy condoms?"
Nie Weixing replied from the bathroom, "Yeah, I just bought a box of condoms. It should have been delivered by the delivery guy. Open the door and get it."
It was quite a coincidence; Nie Weixing had indeed bought condoms earlier.
The delivery guy who was supposed to deliver the condoms hadn't arrived yet; it was Tang Xiaopiao and Zhong Chuhong knocking on the door.
The two ghosts were just ordinary ghosts; they didn't have the ability to pass through walls and needed Zhou Li to open the door for them to enter the house.
After Zhou Li opened the door, she found that there was no one outside.
I didn't think much of it, and even went to the door to check if the delivery person had put the food on the ground and left.
The moment she opened the door, Tang Xiaopiao and Zhong Chuhong had already entered the house, but Zhou Li was completely unaware of this.
After failing to find any takeout at the door, he grumbled as he went inside and slammed the door shut.
While taking a shower in the bathroom, Nie Weixing shouted at the top of his lungs, "Wife, did you get the condoms?"
Zhou Li replied unhappily, "It's really strange. I clearly heard a knock on the door, saying it was a deliveryman, but no one came out."
While taking a shower, Nie Weixing said, "Maybe he left the takeout outside. Look for it, I need it later. I'll beat you up."
Zhou Li shook her head: "I've already looked everywhere for a takeout place that sells balls."
Nie Weixing squeezed some shampoo onto his head, preparing to wash his hair.
Just as bubbles started forming on my head, suddenly the water stopped.
Nie Weixing started cursing: "Ugh, this is so annoying! Why is the water off? Honey, the water's off!"
"The water's off?" Zhou Li ran into the bathroom and saw Nie Weixing standing in front of the mirror, his hair and shoulders dripping with foam, cursing as he looked at himself.
"Yeah, the water's off! Damn it, I was in the middle of a shower and the water's turned off! Give me my phone, I'm calling the property management to ask what's going on!"
Zhou Li handed the phone to Nie Weixing, who angrily dialed the property management front desk and immediately began questioning them:
"What's wrong with your property management? Did I miss a payment or something? The water was cut off halfway through my shower without any prior notice, and now my hair is covered in soap suds. Tell me, what are you going to do?"
After Nie Weixing finished complaining, the gentle receptionist replied, "I'm sorry, Mr. Nie, I didn't understand what you said. Our property management office didn't turn off the water valve. And I just had my colleague call other households, and they didn't have their water cut off either. Is there something wrong with your pipes or something?"
"What? The other households haven't had their water cut off?" Nie Weixing was skeptical.
The receptionist said, "Yes, that's right. The other households haven't had their water cut off, and neither have your neighbors'."
Nie Weixing hung up the phone feeling very strange. He went to the bathroom with his hair covered in foam and checked around. He found that the water valve was also open and he couldn't understand what was wrong.
Zhou Li was also very depressed. It had been a month since they had been able to get any water, and today they were finally going to get things done, but now her husband was covered in foam, and the water was cut off!
"Honey, go get the water from the water dispenser and pour it over my head."
"Okay, sure."
Zhou Li went to the living room to get the bottled water from the water dispenser.
Just then, a crackling sound of electricity flashed.
The lights suddenly went out!
Nie Weixing cursed, "Damn it! The water was cut off, and now the power is out! Why am I so unlucky?"
He picked up his phone and dialed the property management again: "What's going on? You didn't cut off the water, and what about the electricity? My power just went out again!"
The receptionist looked bewildered: "Sir, we haven't lost power here. I'm still watching TV."
The receptionist deliberately turned up the TV volume, and Nie Weixing could hear the sounds coming from the TV.
They called the power company again, and the staff on duty replied that their power had not been cut off.
Nie Weixing was so angry he almost smashed his phone.
Just then, a delicate hand touched his back, stroking it from his back down to his waist.
Then it's his butt.
Nie Weixing thought it was his wife Zhou Li. While enjoying the comfort, he apologized, "Wife, I'm sorry. I wanted to give you a perfect night, but the power and water went out. This head of foam is really troublesome."
Zhou Li didn't speak, but continued to pat Nie Weixing's back.
The real Zhou Li carried in the water.
"Oh, I'm exhausted, honey. Use your phone's flashlight to shine a light on my hair while I pour some water for you to wash it."
Nie Weixing turned on his phone's flashlight and, through the reflection in the mirror, saw his wife Zhou Li standing by the door in the pale light, holding a bottle of mineral water, which was half empty.
Behind him, a soft yet slightly cold hand was still touching his back.
Nie Weixing was instantly terrified.
My wife is standing at the door, but who is the person behind her?
"Ah! A ghost!" Nie Weixing screamed and rushed out of the bathroom with his phone in hand.
Because the movement was too rough, it knocked down Zhou Li, who was standing behind the door.
Tang Xiaopiao and Zhong Chuhong hid in the bathroom, watching Nie Weixing's terrified state, and couldn't help but chuckle.
Chung Chor-hung's main tactic is to scare people into a breakdown before killing them; if she just killed them outright, it would be too easy on them.
The two ghosts did not scare Nie Weixin's wife, Zhou Li, since she had not been involved in the harm she suffered. As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator, and whoever wronged her should be the one to seek revenge.
Lu Chi had told himself not to hurt innocent people.
"Honey, what are you doing? I just put on a face mask! I was wearing it just now. Why are you making such a fuss? You bumped into my shoulder while running so fast, it hurts so much!"
Zhou Li didn't understand what Nie Weixing was arguing about.
The two ghosts bypassed Zhou Li and chased her into the living room.
At this moment, Nie Weixing was hiding behind the sofa, trembling with fear.
