Chapter 28: So eager to throw yourself into my arms
Pei Jingyan raised the last three words slightly, and his low, magnetic voice came up softly, sending strands of heat into Chen Lai's ears, making the tips of his ears feel hot.
Shen Lai's back felt numb for some reason, and she pushed back, "It better not be, otherwise I will report you."
Pei Jingyan then stood up and looked at Chen Lai with a smile.
Without wasting any more time with Pei Jingyan, Shen Lai began to look for clues seriously.
She couldn't count on her mortal enemy anymore, she could only count on herself.
At this moment, Wu Qi, who was not far away, found some bread crumbs. Everyone's attention was immediately drawn to her, and they all asked her to open it and take a look.
Shen Lai's heart immediately hung in the air.
Could it be that Wu Qi found clues about Grandma Wolf so quickly?
However, when Wu Qi opened the note, it was blank, without a single word.
It was a false alarm.
Shen Lai's heart sank back to its original place, and she seemed to hear the sound of "bang". Seeing the other guests showing regretful expressions, she also showed a regretful expression.
While everyone continued to look for clues, Shen Lai immediately sped up his work.
She must find the clues and destroy them faster than those people.
One after another, more people found the breadcrumbs hidden by the program team in various places, but most of them were blank notes.
Only Yan Rui was lucky enough to pick up the hunter's silver bullet after half an hour of playing the game.
Hunter Silver Bullet can force the identity of one of the guests to be verified, which means there is a chance to find Grandma Wolf.
"Mr. Yan, who do you plan to choose to verify your identity?" Director Miao asked.
Yan Rui didn't say anything, his eyes swept across everyone's faces.
When she moved to Shen Lai, her heart couldn't help but rise.
Would Yan Rui choose to verify her identity?
Shen Lai was extremely nervous, but he couldn't show any clue on his face. He could only pretend to be calm and smiled at Yan Rui.
Yan Rui thought of the scene in the daytime when Chen Lai took the initiative to share breakfast with Wu Qi, and quickly turned his gaze away to look at other guests.
Shen Lai secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
After thinking for a long time, Yan Rui said, "The person I want to check is Mr. Huo."
[I thought Yan Rui would investigate Mr. Pei. He looks more like Grandma Wolf. I didn't expect him to choose Mr. Huo.]
[Could it be that Yan Rui is also interested in Sui Sui, so he deliberately chose Huo Shao? Our Sui Sui is such a charmer!]
[The guy above already has a girlfriend, okay? Can't those who try to match people up have some morals?]
[That's right, you can relate everything to love. Do you think your sister is a fairy? ]
[I'm vomiting! Can Bai Hansui's fans please just get lost? What shameless narcissists!]
Miao Dao asked, "Are you sure you chose Mr. Huo?"
Yan Rui nodded, "OK."
"Okay." Director Miao looked at Huo Chilin, "Then let's ask Mr. Huo to announce the answer."
Huo Chilin stood up and in front of everyone, he took out the exclusive Little Red Riding Hood logo that the program crew had given him before the game started from his pocket.
"Mr. Huo's identity is Little Red Riding Hood!" Director Miao picked up the loudspeaker and said loudly.
Yan Rui shrugged with a hint of regret, "It seems that my guess was wrong."
But at least Huo Chilin's identity has been identified, so Grandma Wolf can be ruled out among the remaining four people.
After the little episode, everyone started looking for clues again. Pei Jingyan followed Shen Lai boredly, watching her busy like a mouse stealing rice.
Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark, he caught a glimpse of something under the stone out of the corner of his eye.
His brows twitched slightly, and he turned the tip of his shoe and walked over. Then he casually hooked his long fingers and pulled out a piece of paper stained with yellow paint from under the gap.
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows.
It seems this is what the program team calls "bread crumbs".
He sat down on the stone and casually flipped open the note. When he saw the contents inside, his eyelids twitched slightly.
Just as Shen Lai was searching diligently, Pei Jingyan slowly raised his hand and said, "I found clues about Grandma Wolf."
Shen Lai paused, she turned to look at Pei Jingyan, her eyes fell on the note in his hand.
Her heart skipped a beat and she walked over quickly. "Did you find the note? Let me see."
Just as he was about to snatch the note from Pei Jingyan's hand, the other party raised his hand to avoid it.
Pei Jingyan said calmly, "Why are you in such a hurry? Let's wait for everyone to come over and take a look together."
If other guests came to see, her identity as Grandma Wolf would be revealed.
Shen Lai was a little anxious, “No, let’s take a look first to satisfy my curiosity.”
Pei Jingyan was a full head taller than Chen Lai, so she had to stand on tiptoe and stretch out her arms to grab it. However, Pei Jingyan raised his right hand higher and higher as if to deliberately make things difficult for her.
Pei Jingyan lowered his eyes and looked at Shen Lai who was twisting in his arms, teasing: "Miss Shen, there are cameras here, why are you so eager to throw yourself into my arms?"
Shen Lai's face flushed redly, "I don't have it! Let me see the note first."
Pei Jingyan said lazily, "No."
Shen Lai was so anxious that sweat broke out on his forehead. He softened his tone and said, "Give it to me. I'll help you take a look first. It would be bad if there was a misunderstanding."
Pei Jingyan raised one hand and clasped Shen Lai's restless waist with the other hand. His voice was nonchalant and casual, "Miss Shen, if you keep twisting around, I will have to record the show with a tent on my head today."
Shen Lai's ears turned red, and the posture of the two at this moment was extremely ambiguous, as if they were rubbing their ears together.
She bit her lip and said, "Why are you so stingy? It won't cost you anything if you show it to me."
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows slightly, "You are so anxious to read the contents of the note, could it be that you are Grandma Wolf?"
Shen Lai's heart skipped a beat. Seeing Pei Jingyan staring at her, she felt inexplicably guilty and avoided his gaze.
Just when Shen Lai was hesitating whether to tell Pei Jingyan, a low voice suddenly interrupted their conversation.
"Boss Pei, I heard you found the note."
Huo Chilin appeared beside him at some point, and a cold look flashed in his eyes as he looked at the intimate posture of the two.
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows and put his arm around Shen Lai's waist, "I guess so."
Shen Lai widened his eyes and turned his head stiffly to look at Pei Jingyan.
Where to put his hands!
Pei Jingyan raised his eyebrows with interest, and the expression on his face seemed to say "cooperate".
Thinking that the clue to the wolf grandmother was still in Pei Jingyan's hands, Shen Lai took a deep breath and forced himself to hold it in.
"Then let me take a look."
As he said that, Huo Chilin reached out to take it.
Chen Lai was so anxious that he was sweating profusely. He kept winking at Pei Jingyan, but Pei Jingyan acted as if he didn't see anything and didn't even look at Chen Lai.
Just as Huo Chilin reached out to take it, Pei Jingyan suddenly withdrew his hand and said, "Wait a moment."
Huo Chilin's hand stopped in mid-air, and he frowned slightly. "Boss Pei, what do you mean?"
Pei Jingyan held the note between his fingers and said slowly, "I'll leave it to you. What if you're Grandma Wolf?"
Huo Chilin frowned, "What do you mean? Do you doubt me?"
Pei Jingyan shrugged. "After all, the director said that anyone could be Grandma Wolf, right?"
Huo Chilin's tone turned colder. "So, President Pei might also be Grandma Wolf."
Pei Jingyan smiled slightly. "If I were Grandma Wolf, wouldn't it be quicker for me to just destroy this note? You don't know anyway, so why should I bother myself with this?"
Huo Chilin stopped talking, his jawline tense.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn. After a long while, Huo Chilin said coldly, "Since President Pei doesn't believe me, why not just call everyone over? That should be fine, right?"
Pei Jingyan spread his hands to indicate that he had no objection.
Huo Chilin snorted and called everyone over.
The other two pairs of guests heard that Pei Jingyan had found clues about Grandma Wolf and quickly rushed over.
"Boss Pei, can we open it now?" Huo Chilin said, "Everyone is here, so I can't do anything."
This time Pei Jingyan did not stop him and handed the note over.
When Shen Lai wanted to stop him, it was too late. Huo Chilin had already opened the note, and the others were curiously leaning over to take a look.
"Grandma Wolf's defining characteristic is the small black mole under her right ear."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone looked at each other.
Shen Lai's palms began to sweat unconsciously.
She wasn't sure if she had a small black mole under her ear.
Bai Hansui pondered, "So, anyone with a black mole under their left ear is Grandma Wolf, right?"
Huo Chilin continued, "In that case, let's check and find out who it is."
To ensure fairness, the three pairs of guests checked each other.
Soon it was Shen Lai's turn. She subconsciously closed her eyes, her whole body tensed up, and she was prepared for her identity to be exposed.
However, Yan Rui took a look and patted her shoulder, "It's not you. You don't have a mole under your right ear."
Shen Lai was stunned. She slowly opened her eyes, still a little dazed.
She wasn't discovered?
At this moment, someone beside me said, "Found it, Wu Qi is Grandma Wolf!"
