The image reflected in the soup bowl vanished instantly.
Nan Yuanman Baozi's face showed a look of seriousness and doubt. Feng Jingcheng had been watching her closely. Seeing her staring at the soup bowl with such a complicated and puzzled expression, he couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Have you figured out where the problem lies?"
Nan Yuanman nodded, looked at Wei Junchen who was walking out of the bedroom, and said, "Let's come again tonight."
This older brother is too wary; even if she sees through his act, she shouldn't make a move against him now.
not to mention……
The woman in red in his bedroom was no ordinary ghost or evil spirit.
Xiao Qidong had originally wanted to ask a few more questions, but after hearing what Nan Yuanman said, he temporarily put aside his thoughts, turned to look at Wei Junchen who came out of the bedroom, and asked with a smile, "So? Old Wei, what did your sister-in-law say?"
"She's still shy and doesn't want to see people, so I won't force her. Brother Xiao, I'll punish myself with a drink as an apology on her behalf," Wei Junchen sighed, his expression full of affection.
Since Wei Junchen had already said that, Xiao Qidong naturally couldn't continue to argue, so he could only pretend to be reluctant and clink glasses with him.
Everyone sat down to eat, while Nan Yuanman diligently ate, silently observing Wei Junchen.
As long as his wife isn't mentioned, Wei Junchen is a normal person. He can chat about anything. However, while eating, he will look at himself in the mirror on the dining table.
Xiao Qidong saw this and rolled his eyes in exasperation: "Seriously, Lao Wei, when are you going to get rid of this narcissistic habit? You've looked in the mirror at least ten times during this meal!"
Wei Junchen carefully tidied his hair in front of the mirror, then raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: "Am I being narcissistic? I'm just confident! Besides, I'm so handsome, what's wrong with taking a second look? I could eat two big bowls of rice if I looked at me a second!"
"What's wrong? Lao Xiao, are you jealous of me?"
Feng Jingcheng: "..."
Xie Yifei: "..."
Xiao Qidong's face darkened: "...I'm jealous of you my ass! I'm the prince of the club! As long as I stand there, beauties will automatically throw themselves at me. Why would I be jealous of you?"
Wei Junchen chuckled: "Don't explain. Explaining is just covering up. Sigh~ I'm still too charming. Stop being obsessed with me. Right now, I'm just a legend."
Feng Jingcheng: "...yue!"
Everyone at the table looked over. Feng Jingcheng calmly took out a napkin and wiped his mouth: "Sorry, I ate too much and feel a little nauseous."
The dinner party ended without incident.
Xiao Qidong and his group didn't stay long; they left as soon as they finished their meal.
The group arrived at the basement, and as soon as they got into the car, Xie Yifei, who had been holding back all night, spoke with unusual excitement: "Damn it! There's definitely something fishy going on in Wei Junchen's house! I was looking in the mirror in the kitchen just now, and I saw myself smiling! Do you know how creepy that felt!"
Feng Jingcheng kicked him: "Stop swearing!"
Xie Yifei immediately fell silent, looking expectantly at Nan Yuanman. Xiao Qidong also looked at Nan Yuanman: "Yuanman, is there something wrong with my friend's wife? Is it his wife who did this to him?"
Even the most socially awkward or shy person will still say a few words when their boyfriend's friends come over; it's basic courtesy.
But Wei Junchen's wife remained hidden in the bedroom and wouldn't come out, giving him no time to think.
Nan Yuanman recalled the woman in red he had seen in the bedroom and nodded affirmatively: "Your friend's wife does have a problem. His current situation is similar to being possessed by a ghost, but it's a bit more complicated."
“But it’s not a big problem. We’ll go again tonight and it’ll be fine.” Nan Yuanman patted her small handbag, leaned back in the soft car seat, placed her hands on her round little belly, and closed her eyes peacefully: “Now all we have to do is wait.”
Hearing Nan Yuanman say this, Xiao Qidong felt that he had just realized it.
Xiao Qidong and his group waited until midnight.
Nan Yuanman, sitting in the back seat, was already covered with a light blanket and fast asleep. Xie Yifei, carefree as ever, was sleeping with his head tilted back and snoring. Feng Jingcheng, on the other hand, was chatting with someone on his phone.
Xiao Qidong couldn't contain himself and kept turning his head to look at Nan Yuanman, wanting to wake her up but not daring to.
Around 12:30, Nan Yuanman, who had been fast asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, rubbed them, and sat up: "It's time, let's go upstairs."
Xie Yifei was startled awake. He asked blankly, "Huh? What? The end of the world?"
Xiao Qidong slapped him on the thigh: "That's right, it's the end of the world, zombies are coming to eat your brains, get up now!"
Feng Jingcheng put down his phone and got out of the car first. He turned to look at Nan Yuanman, who was slapping her chubby cheeks like a little seal to wake herself up. After a few seconds of silence, he asked, "Are you okay? Do you want me to carry you?"
"Perfect! That's great!" Nan Yuanman had already shaken off her drowsiness. Grabbing her small handbag, she jumped out of the car with a whoosh and strode ahead confidently: "Let's go!"
Nan Yuanman directly instructed Feng Jingcheng to press the elevator button to the top floor. Once on the top floor, she quickly determined the location of Wei Junchen's house and took out a bundle of hemp rope from her small handbag.
Xiao Qidong was shocked. He stared wide-eyed at Nan Yuanman's small satchel, which was no bigger than two of his palms: "Yuanman, where did you get this rope from?"
"Oh, I put it in beforehand." Nan Yuanman handed the rope to Feng Jingcheng and directed him to tie it to the sturdy railing on the roof. She held the other end herself and tied it around her waist.
Xie Yifei and Xiao Qidong wandered around the rooftop curiously, trying to find out why Nan Yuanman had chosen to be on the rooftop.
Turning their heads, they saw Nan Yuanman standing on the railing with a rope tied around his neck, which terrified the three of them!
"Nan Yuanman!" Feng Jingcheng was both angry and anxious, but dared not shout at her for fear of frightening her. He gritted his teeth and said, "What are you doing up there? Get down here right now!"
"Yes, yes, yes! If you have anything to take care of, just let your brother Qidong handle it!" Xie Yifei nodded his head so hard it almost fell off, pointing at Xiao Qidong.
Xiao Qidong quickly replied, "Yes, I can do it, you don't need to go!"
“You’re no good.” Nan Yuanman shook his head: “That ghost is quite powerful; you can’t handle her.”
"After I go down, you guys wait at the door of Xiao Qidong's brother's friend's house. I'll open the door for you after I kill her."
After saying that, Nan Yuanman jumped down with a thud.
Feng Jingcheng: "!!!"
"Perfect!!"
He was so frightened that his face turned pale. He rushed to the railing and looked down. He saw that Nan Yuanman's small body was firmly tied to the rope in mid-air and was swinging back and forth.
After seeing him, she gave him an OK sign.
Feng Jingcheng: "..."
Feng Jingcheng's forehead veins throbbed. Once this was over, he was going to give her a good beating!
Xie Yifei muttered, "Brother Feng, your cousin is really something! What should we do now?"
"What are we going to do? Go downstairs! What are you waiting here for!" Feng Jingcheng said irritably, then turned and ran downstairs, with Xiao Qidong and Xie Yifei quickly following.
Nan Yuanman had no idea that someone was eyeing her bottom; she was slowly descending following the scent left by the little paper figure.
About a minute later, she stopped in front of a huge glass window.
The window was covered by curtains, leaving only a small gap, and a half-open window for ventilation.
Through a small gap in the curtains, Nan Yuanman peeked inside and saw two figures lying on the bed, embracing each other in sleep.
The people lying in the bed all have the same face.
