"What's wrong?"
As if unaware of their silence, Mu Chen raised an eyebrow.
Mu Chen knew perfectly well that the players had been terrified by Mingmei last night, but he acted as if nothing had happened.

"Huh? A demon?!"
Mu Chen smiled slightly, a hint of forced awkwardness in his expression, and gave a wry laugh: "Yes, otherwise my wife and I wouldn't have stayed home so long, no matter how heavy the rain was."
