Xiao Tangqiu rolled his eyes subconsciously: "...Enough!"
"Oh! Young man! Be restrained!" Tang Mianmian shook her head with a condescending tone.
Although Xiao Tangqiu claimed that his relationship with Shen Yuan was innocent and he did not feel guilty at all about the scene of catching them in bed, he still felt embarrassed because of so many eyes watching him in public. Just when he was trying to climb out of Shen Yuan's sleeping bag in a hurry, Shen Yuan suddenly opened his eyes and moved.
When Shen Yuan moved, his soft lips brushed against Xiao Tangqiu's mouth. Xiao Tangqiu subconsciously jumped out of the sleeping bag as if he had been scalded.
He wasn't so hypocritical as to cover his mouth to hide his feelings, but the soft touch just now still made his heart tremble... Wait! Don't think about it anymore! Don't keep thinking about the shape and touch of Shen Yuan's lips! He forced himself to calm down.
It was an accident! It was just an accident!
Everything just now happened so quickly that Xiao Tangqiu wasn't sure if anyone else had seen it. To avoid embarrassment, he quickly changed the subject with a dry laugh: "You guys are back? Did you find anything?"
At this moment, Duan Hongzhen also woke up. He frowned and said, "How could I sleep so soundly? I actually slept until you came back... Wait! How did you sleep in the same bed?"
It was unknown whether Xue Junli and the others had witnessed the scene just now, or whether it was because they had seen Xiao Tangqiu and Shen Yuan sleeping in such an intimate position in the same sleeping bag. Their expressions were somewhat indescribable. After a moment, Xue Junli shook his head and said lightly, "Nothing special was discovered."
Xiao Tangqiu hesitated for a moment: "I just encountered a very strange thing..."
He quickly mentioned the woman in the white kimono he had just met, and explained, "I didn't mean to get into Shen Yuan's sleeping bag. It was because the roof leaked and my sleeping bag got wet, so I..."
At this moment, Tang Mianmian suddenly said something shocking: "But it's not raining outside!"
Xiao Tangqiu was stunned for a moment and didn't react for a moment: "Huh?"
Xue Junli also nodded and said calmly: "It didn't rain all night. We just stayed outside. If it rained, we would definitely know."
Xiao Tangqiu suddenly felt a chill on his back. He quickly turned his head and looked around, but saw that the house was dry everywhere and not a single spot was wet. He looked up at the roof and saw that the roof was also intact and not a single spot was leaking.
"And this is your sleeping bag!" Tang Mianmian pointed at the sleeping bag that Xiao Tangqiu had just crawled out of. "This green sleeping bag was originally yours! That black sleeping bag over there that no one is sleeping in must be the one that belongs to Master Shen Yuan!"
Xiao Tangqiu was suddenly even more confused. Wasn't it that he was woken up by the cold in the middle of the night and crawled into Shen Yuan's sleeping bag, but that Shen Yuan crawled into his sleeping bag in the middle of the night?
Was it possible that the woman in the white kimono was just an illusion from beginning to end, or was it all just a dream he had?
Just as Xiao Tangqiu was lost in thought, Xue Junli suddenly spoke up, "However, after hearing what you said just now, I suddenly remembered a monster in the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons. This monster bears some resemblance to your description..."
"The Rain Girl usually appears on rainy days. Wherever she goes, there will be puddles of wet water. If a man smiles at her and asks to share an umbrella, she will follow him until he can no longer withstand the damp environment and dies."
As a horror game streamer, Xiao Tangqiu had naturally read One Hundred Demons Night Parade. Hearing Xue Junli's words, he immediately remembered, "That woman in the white kimono does look a bit like the Rain Girl, but I've never seen her before, nor have I ever lent her an umbrella..."
Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly remembered something - before he was transmigrated into this horror game, he did hold an umbrella for a strange woman on a rainy day. This was certainly not because he was a gentleman, but because the woman was holding a baby in her arms, and he couldn't bear to let the baby get wet in the rain, so he held the umbrella and sent the woman home.
But that was two or three months ago, and the young woman holding the baby looked normal. Of course, the most important thing is that it happened in the real world!
"Legends and reality aren't always 100% consistent, and legends can't be exhaustive," Xue Junli pondered. "Let's just call that woman in the white kimono the Rain Girl. Perhaps she was acting differently. If you hadn't wanted to see her get wet and invited her inside, you'd have ended up like those men who were possessed by the Rain Girl..."
Tang Mianmian, standing by, couldn't help but grumble, "Isn't this just fishing? But anyone willing to lend her an umbrella or invite her inside to shelter from the rain is kind-hearted. Why does she only target good people and not bad ones? Wait! It seems she only targets men, too."
Xiao Tangqiu thought for a moment and said, "It is said that the Rain Girl was transformed from a young woman who waited for her husband to return by the sea, but was swept into the sea by the wind and waves and drowned. Perhaps she originally harbored resentment towards men..."
"Every wrong has its perpetrator. If she resents her husband, then she should kill him. Taking her anger out on other men is nothing!" Tang Mianmian snorted. Suddenly, his eyes rolled, and he said to Xiao Tangqiu with a grin, "If it's really like you said, she saw you crawl into Master Shen Yuan's sleeping bag and then left. Guess what she was thinking when she saw this scene from the rooftop?"
Xiao Tangqiu blinked: "What are you thinking about?"
Tang Mianmian: "Humph! Damn gay!"
Xiao Tangqiu: "..."
Tang Mianmian pinched her throat and imitated a woman's voice: "Humph! No wonder you don't feel sorry for me at all! You didn't even invite me in to shelter from the rain! Turns out you're a dead gay! What a waste of my feelings!"
