Once something happens, it will happen again. Shen Jue felt like he was about to become a high-ranking member of the underground party at that time.
During this period, Shen Jue and Xia Zhelan did develop something beyond revolutionary friendship.
Shen Jue joked, "Oh, Lanlan, when are you going to marry me?"
"May the revolution triumph!" Xia Zhelan declared with great conviction.
In those turbulent times, some things were better left unsaid.
Even though Shen Jue was very careful, he was still being watched.
Such a person is destined not to stay.
Shen Jue knew that doing something like this would be risking his life, so he arranged for his family to go abroad long ago.
When the enemy came looking for him, Shen Jue knew he was doomed.
That night, a huge fire completely destroyed the Langham Hotel. Fortunately, the fire started relatively early, before the guests had gone to bed, and many people managed to escape.
According to reports at the time, the death toll was 14 and the number of injured exceeded 100. Shen Jue, the general manager of Langham Hotel, perished in the fire and his body was never recovered.
It is said that the resentment is so strong that many people dare not pass by there at night.
Later, when the new China was established and its popularity grew, this place was redeveloped.
Coincidentally, it was still the Grand Hotel that was rebuilt.
It is said that the founder was a descendant of the Shen family.
Ye Wenlong knew that the big boss's surname was Shen.
Ye Wenlong knew what the situation was like in the last century, but he still asked, "You didn't make this up, did you?"
"That person is Shen Jue?"
The security chief shrugged. "Oh, Mr. Ye, just take it as a story."
He didn't say whether it was true or false.
Later, Ye Wenlong encountered it twice more.
He originally wanted to resign, but then he thought about the generous salary and gave up.
This so-called former boss didn't harm anyone, did he?
When the descendants of the Shen family heard about this, they even brought a master to take a look, but they found nothing.
Jiang Si glanced at Tang Si, who was already crying while hugging Zhong Chu, and thought for a moment, "You can't blame me."
The sense of tranquility has become one with the hotel. How would you feel about a hotel that is lifeless?
This morning, by sheer coincidence, Shen Jue was caught in the act by Jiang Si and injured by her, causing his vital energy to dissipate.
It was impossible for Tang's parents to sense Tang Si's existence.
Tang Si cried for a while, then ran over when she saw that Jiang Si had almost finished eating.
Her eyes were red, and she looked at Jiang Si pitifully.
Oh, and Xie Wuyi too.
Tang Si didn't know who Xie Wuyi was, but she still politely greeted him as well, "Uncle, hello. Master Jiang, hello."
Xie Wuyi was already used to it; in the past, people would call him grandpa.
After saying that, he stood obediently to the side.
If Jiang Si doesn't care about her either, she'll really have to become a ghost bride.
She just graduated, how can she be getting married already? And to a ghost no less.
Tang Si's expressions were so rich that even Jiang Si couldn't tell what she was thinking. "Don't be discouraged, I'll help you later."
Tang Si's eyes lit up instantly, and she became much more lively.
"Master Jiang is indeed a kind and compassionate man," Xie Wuyi nodded.
"Oh, you're not going?"
"Go, of course I'll go. I'm quite interested in that male ghost."
It's really rare to see something that blends seamlessly with the architecture.
This is the kind of situation where the hotel stays standing until the hotel collapses, and the hotel continues to exist even after the hotel collapses.
The hotel was like his first layer of protection.
After breakfast, the two strolled leisurely into the hotel, wandering around aimlessly. An unsuspecting person might have thought they were touring the hotel.
But in reality, Jiang Si was just looking for a secluded corner.
She doesn't have a penchant for dealing with ghosts in front of cameras.
Ye Wenlong saw Jiang Si during his inspection.
Anyone who has glanced at the trending topics and whose memory is fairly accurate will know about Jiang Si.
Watching Jiang Si and a middle-aged man walk into the stairwell, Ye Wenlong was conflicted.
Is Jiang Si here to seek thrills, or does the hotel have some business that requires her intervention?
No, he immediately realized.
Is his hotel haunted?
Could it be that Jiang Si came for this ghost?
No matter what, having a ghost around is still a bit unsettling. Ye Wenlong decided to wait and see. It would be best if Jiang Si could really step in and solve the problem for him.
The hotel has emergency escape stairs.
But the original old hotel may have been destroyed by fire. This hotel's fire safety facilities are simply top-notch. Basically, unless a bomb is dropped, it might not even cause a major fire.
The escape stairs have motion-activated lights.
Before I sensed anything, it was pitch black, with only the escape sign installed on the wall flashing a ghostly green light.
This made the entire escape staircase even more gloomy.
Thanks to the promotion of movies and TV shows, the scenes here inexplicably evoke the underworld.
But in reality, the underworld doesn't look like this at all.
Tang Si followed behind, feeling a little scared, and unconsciously tugged at Jiang Si's sleeve.
"..." Jiang Si thought for a while and said, "Actually, there is also the sun in the Netherworld, but it doesn't shine like this."
Tang Si: "..."
Thank you, but it didn't offer any comfort.
Xie Wuyi walked ahead, saying, "You're not human anyway, so what's there to be afraid of?"
Tang Si: "..."
After they went inside, the motion-sensor light turned on.
Although the stairwell wasn't as bright as day, it was at least clear from front to back.
Jiang Si was a little disappointed: "The wonderful atmosphere is gone."
“Yes,” Xie Wuyi agreed.
As soon as he finished speaking, the lights started flashing in time with the occasion.
It was sometimes bright and sometimes dim.
The atmosphere is instantly created.
"Don't waste your energy," Xie Wuyi said. "We're not here to take you away, we're just here to discuss something with you."
The lights flickered a few more times before finally returning to normal, albeit reluctantly.
Shen Jue appeared in front.
This time, he wasn't the kind of big shot who looked like he was from Shanghai; instead, he revealed his face, which had been burned beyond recognition before his death.
Its four legs were curled up, as small as a baby's, and its facial features were flat, blurred into a plane.
"Ah!" Tang Si cried out in alarm and quickly hid behind Jiang Si.
That's absolutely terrifying!
Turning her head, she seemed to remember something and peeked out from behind, saying, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Doing this in front of others is somewhat impolite.
Shen Jue opened his mouth with difficulty, his voice extremely hoarse and unpleasant, as jarring as if drawn on a blackboard, "Heh, are you showing disdain?"
"Ze Lan, you said you would be my wife."
Tang Si screamed in despair, "No, big brother, who are you? I don't know you!"
"Please, let me go!"
Shen Jue's face, which was almost devoid of features, exuded an inexplicable sadness.
"Why?" He walked over step by step.
Jiang Si was unsure whether to sympathize with Shen Jue or Tang Si.
"Exactly, is it possible you've mistaken me for someone else?"
