Chapter 121 Is this pen...haunted?
Lin Yan'an reached out and took the phone with the broken screen, casually asking, "Did it get this badly damaged?"
Zhou Kangning shrugged: "Don't even mention it. Your brother-in-law's phone just happened to fall on a rock when he fainted."
Lin Yan'an understood, and casually flipped through it over and over again.
Nestled in his arms, Zhong Suisui seemed to smell a familiar scent. She couldn't resist placing her two furry paws on his hand, craning her little head out, and sniffing intently with her nose twitching slightly.
Meow~
It patted Lin Yan'an's hand with its paw while meowing softly, "Daddy! Bring some over so Sui Sui can smell it."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan'an lowered his eyes and handed the item in his hand to it, asking in a low voice, "What did Sui Sui smell?"
Hmm~
Zhong Suisui smelled the faint, almost negligible, familiar scent on the phone, tilting her head with a puzzled look in her eyes. [How come this smells like Suisui and her mother?]
Lin Yan'an was taken aback upon hearing this, then frowned slightly: "Sui Sui means that this has your and Mom's scent on it?"
Zhong Suisui hesitated for a moment after being asked this question.
"Yan An, what did you say?"
Zhou Kangning had just finished tidying up the things in the drawer when he vaguely heard Lin Yan'an's voice. He subconsciously turned his head to look at her and said, "What did you just say? I didn't hear you clearly."
"nothing,"
Lin Yan'an looked up and, seeing the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone in his hand, asked curiously, "Brother Zhou, what are you holding?"
Zhou Kangning shrugged: "Your brother-in-law's stuff. To better grasp the role, he practices calligraphy every day when he's not filming to get a feel for it. After all, he's playing a scholar."
Lin Yanan nodded in understanding.
Upon seeing this, Zhong Suisui's eyes widened instantly.
Seeing the faint gray fumes on the calligraphy brush, it quickly reached out its paw and patted Lin Yan'an's hand, reminding him, "Daddy, look!"
It's that calligraphy brush!
Lin Yan'an quickly looked over, reached out and took the brush, only then noticing the faint grayish-white fumes on it.
His fingers traced the pen, and he pondered, "It's you, isn't it?"
"Who are you? Why are you entering his dream?"
A gentle breeze drifted through the gauze curtains, bringing a moment of silence.
But the wind woke up the somewhat dumbfounded Zhou Kangning.
He couldn't help but shiver, subconsciously glancing at the talking cat, then at Lin Yan'an and the calligraphy brush in his hand. He swallowed hard and asked in a trembling voice, "Yan'an... what are you saying?"
"besides……"
"Your cat...how can it talk?!"
His pupils constricted, and his body involuntarily retreated until he felt his back against the corner of the wall, at which point he felt a little safer.
Zhou Kangning gripped the object in his hand tightly, his eyes fixed on Zhong Suisui.
Seeing this, Lin Yan'an turned his gaze away from the calligraphy brush, having already made up his mind.
Looks like I'll have to have his wife come over again.
Lin Yan'an sighed softly. He really did seem to have a troublesome constitution.
They've only been married a short time, and they're already encountering these kinds of things one after another.
Thinking of this, the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.
Although it's troublesome, it can generate income for his wife, so she should be happy.
Lin Yan'an pulled himself together and looked at Zhou Kangning in the corner, smiling reassuringly, "Don't worry, Brother Zhou, Sui Sui is just a little special, she won't hurt you."
"As for this pen,"
Lin Yan'an raised his hand to signal him, and pondered for a moment, saying, "Perhaps, our opportunity lies here."
"Chance?"
Zhou Kangning looked at him with great confusion and asked, "It's just a calligraphy brush, what kind of opportunity could it possibly have?"
Lin Yan'an smiled and, without explaining, changed the subject: "Let's go downstairs to eat first. Yanzhou must have been waiting for a long time."
After saying that, she looked down at the calligraphy brush in her hand and said, "I'll leave this with me for now, and I'll talk to my brother-in-law about it when I see him."
"Okay,"
Zhou Kangning blankly agreed.
Following behind Lin Yan'an, he scratched his head, then looked up at the figure in front of him, straining to see the mysterious cat.
Although Lin Yan'an didn't explain, people in their line of work are more or less superstitious.
Could Lin Yan'an really have had some kind of extraordinary encounter?
Zhou Kangning thought uncertainly,
At a young age, he amassed a fortune of over 100 million yuan on his own, and the copyrights of his casually written novels were worth tens of millions of yuan. His first screenplay, written after learning to write, earned Pei Xubai several Best Actor awards...
The more Zhou Kangning thought about his resume, the more certain he became of his suspicions.
At the same time, I couldn't help but feel fortunate.
Fortunately, he stood in the right spot countless times. Thank goodness...
Zhong Suisui had no idea what he was thinking; she only keenly sensed the gaze from behind Lin Yan'an.
It couldn't help but spread its hands in curiosity, and skillfully climbed onto Lin Yan'an's shoulder.
Two tiny paws clung to his shoulders, while two round, bright eyes peeked out.
Upon seeing Zhou Kangning's strange smile, the little girl trembled and quickly shrank back.
Lin Yan'an caught the kitten that slipped off his shoulder, turned around, pushed open the door, and went inside.
Looking at Pei Xubai and the others who were already seated inside, she asked with concern, "How are you feeling, brother-in-law?"
Pei Xubai turned his head when he heard his voice, and nodded with a smile: "It's much better now."
"Um."
Lin Yan'an walked over and sat down opposite him, placed the calligraphy brush in her hand on the table, and looked at Pei Xubai, asking, "Brother-in-law, where did you buy this calligraphy brush?"
Upon hearing this, Pei Xubai lowered his eyes to look at the calligraphy brush on the table, then looked at Lin Yan'an and asked in confusion, "What's wrong with this brush?"
"It's just something Da Hua bought casually from an outside store."
Lin Yan'an tapped his fingers lightly on the table, pondered for a moment, and asked, "Do you remember when you started having nightmares?"
Pei Xubai tried hard to recall: "It seems to have been the third day after I got this pen back?"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Kangning, who was sitting next to Lin Yan'an, quickly nodded in agreement: "Yes, that was the day!"
"Xu Bai's acting was going well at first, and there were no problems. But starting from that day, he started having nightmares non-stop..."
Zhou Kangning's gaze involuntarily fell on the calligraphy brush, and he asked somewhat nervously, "Yan An, is there something wrong with this brush?"
"It should be."
Lin Yan'an nodded and spoke calmly.
"What?!"
Zhou Kangning's eyes widened instantly, and his voice unconsciously rose: "So this really is a dirty deal?!"
"Is this...haunted?"
Liu Hua swallowed hard, looking at the group nervously, and said, "I'm easily frightened, don't scare me!"
Seeing this, Lin Yan'an smiled slightly and reassured her, "Don't worry, don't be afraid."
"It's been so long, have you seen anyone else besides my brother-in-law having nightmares?"
After hearing this, the others thought about it for a while and actually felt somewhat relieved.
Pei Xubai glanced at Lin Yan'an speechlessly and complained, "So you're just letting him torment me?"
Lin Yan'an shrugged: "How can you say it's a hassle?"
He raised his hand and extended it to Pei Xubai: "Give me those papers from yesterday. Try to communicate with him in your dreams first."
"This can be considered a contribution to our script and to your acting career."
