This ancient house B&B has a beautiful interior decoration with pavilions, terraces, rockery ponds, a beautiful small garden, and typical ancient-style architecture, which can wipe away the previous unhappiness.
The tourists on the bus gathered in the restaurant and ate and drank happily. There were delicious dishes on everyone's table. Zhang Juan, who had just been shouting that she wanted to go back, also ate happily and poured a glass of red wine to sip it slowly.
"Please come this way, there is an empty table here, you can sit here!"
The middle-aged man in a black robe looked terribly pale. He had no expression on his face and his eyes were lifeless. He turned stiffly and led them to an empty table.
"I'm the housekeeper here. The food will be here soon. Please enjoy your meal, guests."
The butler turned stiffly and left. Soon someone brought up the food. There was seafood, sashimi, fish and meat, and all kinds of dishes. It looked very sumptuous indeed. No wonder the others who were unhappy just now suddenly became happy.
"Master, is there something wrong with the food here?"
Ma Yingbei swallowed his saliva, feeling greedy but not daring to eat.
“The food is fine, the people are the problem.”
Wen Xi calmly picked up the chopsticks and started eating. Ma Yingbei saw this and quickly followed suit, eating happily.
After eating and drinking, some people with red faces wanted to go back to their rooms to rest.
The elusive butler suddenly appeared. Under the moonlight, his eyebrows were extremely pale, giving people a creepy feeling.
The housekeeper spoke slowly, word by word, "Here are the keys to your rooms. Please remember: do not go out or move around at night, let alone leave the B&B. Otherwise... you will bear the consequences yourself."
Accompanied by a cool breeze, the bell at the door rang again, and the sound drifted into the restaurant.
Tang Jianming said disapprovingly, "We're all out traveling, are you really going to keep us stuck in our rooms? Really, what are you thinking? We're free to go wherever we want."
After saying that, he hugged Zhang Juan, took the key from the housekeeper and went back to the room.
Others also took their keys and returned to their rooms one after another, obviously not taking the housekeeper's words to heart. Under the moonlight, the housekeeper watched their leaving backs, his pale lips grinning into a cold-blooded, sinister smile, his bloodthirsty eyes seemed to be staring at some prey.
Meng Po took a sip of red wine, and her charming face flushed. She narrowed her eyes and said in a low voice, "This housekeeper is really not a human being. Miss, do you want to deal with him?"
Wen Xi picked up a tissue and wiped the corner of his lips, then said calmly, "Let's wait and see. Seeing how loud the bell is, it's definitely not going to be peaceful tonight."
When night fell, the clock hanging in the middle of the living room of the B&B pointed to twelve o'clock.
Ding ding ding!
The clock made a sound as eerie as if it came from hell. A thin layer of mist gradually enveloped the outside of the famous hotel. Black shadows flickered in the mist, and shrill cries were heard.
Tang Jianming walked out holding Zhang Juan in his arms. The two were so close that they looked like conjoined twins.
Zhang Juan blushed and pretended to push him away. "Brother Tang, you're so annoying! Isn't it nice inside? Why do you have to go outside?"
Tang Jianming narrowed his eyes and smiled obscenely, "I saw it when I parked the car just now. There's a large patch of grass past the bushes next to it. You can lie there and look at the stars. How romantic."
Zhang Juan snorted, "Brother Tang, looking at the stars? When did you become so romantic? Really, you're not interested in the bar, and you're still talking nonsense here."
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm just showing you the stars. I'm serious."
Tang Jianming chuckled, and the two turned around to see Wen Xi and Meng Po drinking comfortably in the yard.
Both of them are top beauties, especially Wen Xi, who is still young and has a kind of cold beauty that makes people want to break.
Tang Jianming's eyes lit up when he saw Wen Xi. He coughed lightly and invited her, "Two beauties, why don't you go out together to admire the stars? Look at how beautiful the moon is today, with so many stars, it's so beautiful."
He added greasyly, "Of course, not as beautiful as you two."
Zhang Juan's face changed drastically. She stamped her feet and looked at Wen Xi and Meng Po with jealousy.
"No need."
Wen Xi reminded lightly, "Didn't the housekeeper just say? Don't go out at night. It's best to stay in the room, let alone go out to the B&B."
Tang Jianming said disapprovingly, "Butler, you're just trying to scare me. I don't believe it. What era is this? Are there still ghosts out there? If it's a wild beast... I've researched the local customs and practices here before. There haven't been any giant wild beasts here. Don't be afraid!"
He chuckled, "I'll protect you two beauties, why don't you do me the honor of admiring the stars together?"
Wen Xi refused coldly, "No need."
"But…"
"Brother Tang! They already said they couldn't go, so why did you have to shamelessly ask them to go?"
Zhang Juan was unhappy and said with a sullen face, "Or do you think they are prettier than me, so you want to find someone else? Don't you see how aloof they are? There is no way they will agree to your request. Humph, if you insist on inviting someone else, then I will go back to my room."
Tang Jianming quickly pulled Zhang Juan aside and said with an apologetic smile, "Oh my, you are the most beautiful in my heart. Honey, let's go watch the stars, just the two of us."
Zhang Juan hesitated for a few moments and then obediently followed him out.
When she couldn't see him, Tang Jianming secretly turned around and gave Wen Xi and Meng Po a lewd smile.
After the two left the B&B, Meng Po complained, "This couple is really disgusting, especially the man. The way he looks at the young lady is so filthy. I almost want to get up and poke his eyes out."
Wen Xi raised his lips and said, "So I reminded them once, and I won't remind them a second time. If they want to die, let them go. I also want to see what this tour group is up to."
Meng Po took a sip of red wine, squinted her eyes and said comfortably, "It's so gloomy here, filled with ghostly auras and a disgusting smell. It's definitely not a good place. Oh my, I'm out here to have fun and work at the same time. I really love my job. It's great."
Wen Xi praised her perfunctorily, "Well, you're awesome."
Out of the corner of her eye, she saw someone sneaking towards the backyard in the corridor of the room. She hummed softly and drank the juice silently.
In the early morning of the next day, when it was still light outside, a shrill scream was heard coming from the B&B.
All the tourists were awakened by the scream. They rubbed their sleepy eyes and rushed into the yard, only to see Tang Jianming covered in blood and crawling in from outside the door with a look of fear on his face.
His lips trembled, his pupils dilated, and he shouted in despair, "There's a monster, there's a monster here, run, everyone run!"
