Chapter 23



When Shen Xin and Xie Kaihuai walked to the haunted house ticket office, Zheng Xiyan and Liu H were sitting there playing with their phones. Huang Jingt's phone was also with them. Shen Xin went up to ask them, and Zheng Xiyan said cunningly: "Huang Jingt likes these exciting things. Liu H and I don't dare to go in, so we're waiting for her here."

Xie Kaihuai glanced at them, went to buy two tickets, and called Shen Xin: "Let's go in."

Shen Xin and Xie Kaihuai entered the haunted house together. As soon as they walked through the door, darkness swept in. The house was decorated with deep red lights, which looked even more permeable in this dim environment.

The first scene is an imitation of A Chinese Ghost Story. The dry branches, dilapidated temples and occasional women's laughter perfectly restore the atmosphere of Lanruo Temple.

Xie Kaihuai's current mood is regret, very regretful.

He must have been full to go into such a haunted house on his birthday.

But now that he was here, he absolutely could not embarrass himself in front of Shen Xin, otherwise he would be laughed at for the rest of his life. He straightened his back and walked in front of Shen Xin: "Don't be afraid, I'll walk in front, and I'll block anything for you."

Shen Xin responded expressionlessly: "Oh."

Normally, Xie Kaihuai would have complained about her emotionless "Oh", but now he was too nervous to care about it. Just after walking a few steps inside, a white figure suddenly came towards him, and stopped accurately in front of Xie Kaihuai as if it had been carefully calculated.

As it stopped, the figure also pushed aside its hair, revealing a pale and scary face, and smiled at Xie Kai from a close distance: "Eh, hehehe."

“Ahhhhhhhhh!!!” Xie Kaihuai screamed wildly and hid behind Shen Xin.

Shen Xin: “…”

After Xie Kaihuai was frightened, the white shadow floated away again as it came. Xie Kaihuai tightly grasped Shen Xin's arm and followed her step by step: "How about we go out? Your team member may have already gone out."

Shen Xin said coldly: "If you are afraid, you can go out first."

"..." Xie Kaihuai was physically scared, but he had to deny it, "Who's scared? I'm worried about you!"

"oh."

As soon as Shen Xin finished speaking, Xie Kaihuai suddenly grabbed Shen Xin and said, "Wait."

Shen Xin said: "What's wrong?"

Xie Kaihuai's voice was a little trembling as he spoke: "Okay, it seems like something is tapping my shoulder."

Shen Xin: “…”

"You, you help me see what it is." Xie Kaihuai stood where he was, not daring to move.

Shen Xin looked back and saw that there was indeed a hand on Xie Kaihuai's shoulder, with special effects carefully applied on the hand, dyed blood red.

As she turned around, the man leaned out from behind Xie Kai's arms, revealing a face with a bloody mouth and a long tongue.

After Shen Xin saw it clearly, he said to Xie Kaihuai, "Don't be afraid, it's just a hanged ghost."

Xie Kaihuai: “???”

“Hanged Ghost”: “…”

Perhaps because he felt that he had not done his job well and had not scared the tourists, the "hanged ghost" very professionally opened his mouth even wider and a meaningless howl suddenly came out of his throat.

Xie Kaihuai was frightened by his words and immediately jumped up: "Ahhhhhhhhh!"

Shen Xin: “…”

This exaggerated reaction is worthy of a younger brother of Li Shutang.

The staff member saw that he had finally scared someone and was about to leave, but the brave girl suddenly grabbed him and asked him warmly: "Hello, I want to ask you something, have you seen a high school girl come in?"

Xie Kaihuai: “……???”

Staff: "..."

Is there such an operation???

After saying this, the staff member said in a very role-playing manner: "I saw it. It just passed by not long ago~~"

Shen Xin asked, "Where did she go?"

The staff member raised his bloody hand and pointed her in the direction.

"Thank you!" Shen Xin thanked the staff gratefully and took Xie Kaihuai to that place.

Xie Kaihuai: “???”

Let him go, he wants to go home!!

Following the direction pointed by the staff, Shen Xin saw Huang Jingt after walking a few steps. She seemed to be very scared and started crying in the corner. It was originally a tragic thing, but coupled with this environment... there was an indescribable feeling.

"Huang Jingt, are you okay?" Shen Xin walked up to Huang Jingt, Xie Kaihuai still hanging on her arm. When Huang Jingt saw Shen Xin, she jumped up as if she had seen a relative. Shen Xinan comforted her and took her and Xie Kaihuai out of the nearest exit.

When Xie Kai came out of the embrace, he was running in the front, still yelling, "Ahhhhh Mommy!"

"Hahahaha, I'm dying of laughter!" This scene was filmed by Meiqiu who was holding a mobile phone. He laughed so hard that he fell over. "Thank you for making this happen!"

Xie Kaihuai didn't have time to pay attention to him at the moment. He rushed out, picked up his half-drunk ice cola, and gulped it down.

Huang Jingt and Shen Xin also walked out after him. Shen Xin looked normal, but Huang Jingt was obviously frightened and looked a little stupid.

Seeing how scared she was, Zheng Xiyan and Liu H also laughed: "Hahaha, Huang Jingt, are you okay?"

Seeing that they were still gloating over misfortune, Shen Xin got a little angry: "You knew Huang Jingt was afraid of these things, why did you insist on sending her to the haunted house?"

Zheng Xiyan smiled and said, "Who knew she was so scared? We were just fooling around. There was no need to be so serious."

Xie Kaihuai, who was shocked after finishing his Coke, heard them say this, sneered, and walked up to them: "Are you kidding? How about I let Li Man play with you too?"

The Li Man he was talking about was a girl from outside the school who also came to celebrate his birthday today. This Li Man had long hair and pretty facial features, but she wore heavy makeup and had a tattoo on her waist. In this weather, she was only wearing a black leather jacket, which was very short, and the tattoo on her waist could be revealed when she raised her hand.

She smiled, drank the Coke in her hand, walked up to Zheng Xiyan and Liu H and looked at them: "Little sister, do you want to play with your sister?"

Zheng Xiyan and Liu H usually acted arrogantly in front of Huang Jingt, but now they were frightened when they saw someone they couldn't afford to offend. They pursed their lips with a pale face, and took Huang Jingt away.

Shen Xin did not chase them after they left. She patted Xie Kaihuai's shoulder and looked at him seriously: "Think about how to explain to Li Shutang when you go back."

Xie Kaihuai: "..."

No, he just helped her, and not only did she not thank him, but she also told his sister about it?

Haha, woman.

After leaving the haunted house, Shen Xin returned to the bus. At 5:30, she picked up all the group members and asked the driver to take them to dinner. Because dinner was at the hotel, Shen Xin went home after finishing her meal with everyone.

When she got home, Li Shutang and Xie Kaihuai were there, and what was amazing was that Ye Zhiyou was there too.

By the way, ever since Ye Zhiyou used a facial mask to enchant Li Shutang, he would appear here from time to time. Oh, yes, recently he also served as Xie Kaihuai's tutor.

Seeing Shen Xin coming back, Li Shutang, who was originally teaching Xie Kaihuai, also stopped and said, "Shen Xin, you're back?"

"Yeah." Shen Xin put down her bag, walked to the opposite side of the sofa and looked at Ye Zhiyou, "Is Mr. Ye here too?"

Li Shutang said, "Isn't it Xie Kaihuai's birthday today? I bought a cake and some food specially. I thought Mr. Ye has been tutoring Xie Kaihuai these days, so I asked him to come over and have a meal with me."

"Oh." Shen Xin nodded, and saw that there was indeed a lot of food on the table in the living room. "Then why don't you eat?"

Xie Kaihuai heard her ask this and immediately agreed: "Yes, Shen Xin is back too, let's eat first!"

"Still eating!" Li Shutang pushed Xie Kai's arms away and lifted him up from the sofa. "You skipped a day of classes today, and you still want to eat? I've already spared your life by not beating your head off!"

Shen Xin laughed when she heard her say this: "He finally got his comeuppance today. Let me show you."

She turned on her cell phone, held it in front of Ye Zhiyou and Li Shutang, and clicked on the video.

"Ahhhhhhh Mommy!" A burst of ghostly howling immediately came out from inside.

"..." Xie Kaihuai was stunned for a second, then immediately realized what it was, and reached out to grab Shen Xin's phone. Unfortunately, it was too late, Li Shutang had already fallen on the sofa with laughter: "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, I am dying of laughter, Shen Xin, send me the video, I want to send it to Xie Kaihuai's mother."

"Okay! I have the complete version here!" Shen Xin said as he clicked send, and also sent a copy to Ye Zhiyou.

Ye Zhiyou received the video and clicked it to see that it was recorded before Xie Kaihuai and Shen Xin entered the haunted house. At that time, Xie Kaihuai still looked confident, and just like when Ye Zhiyou first met him, he put his hand on Shen Xin's shoulder.

Haha. Ye Zhiyou frowned unconsciously.

"Xie Kaihuai's paper yesterday had a lot of mistakes, and he skipped classes today, so he must not have corrected it, right?" Ye Zhiyou suddenly mentioned Xie Kaihuai's homework. When Li Shutang heard this, she thought of the important matter again: "Yes, Xie Kaihuai! Go up and correct the paper for me right now!"

Xie Kaihuai didn't manage to snatch Shen Xin's phone, and didn't want to go up to grade the papers: "Why are you in such a hurry? There's so much food on the table that you haven't eaten yet."

Li Shutang grabbed his collar and left: "Just leave it for Shen Xin and Mr. Ye to eat, you don't have to worry about it."

"...Li Shutang, let me go!"

"If you keep making noise, I'll throw you off the building."

Shen Xin: “…”

Soar.

Amid Li Shutang's cursing, the siblings disappeared at the stairs.

She thought Li Shutang would come down after going up, but she didn't move. Shen Xin coughed awkwardly and smiled at Ye Zhiyou, "Then let's eat."

"Yeah." Ye Zhiyou responded.

Shen Xin didn't touch the cake on the table, but opened all the skewers. Li Shutang also put a bottle of red wine there, which was the bottle that Ye Zhiyou brought last time.

Shen Xin sat next to Ye Zhiyou, picked up a skewer of barbecue, and turned on the TV: "Let's watch a movie."

When Ye Zhiyou heard her say she was going to show a movie, he became highly alert: "Let's not watch the movie, so as not to disturb Xie Kaihuai's studies."

Shen Xin was silent for a moment. Although he felt that the sound of the TV would not disturb Xie Kaihuai upstairs, he still turned off the TV.

Ye Zhiyou was relieved when he saw her turn off the TV. He picked up a skewer of barbecue and asked Shen Xin beside him, "Did you go out to play with Xie Kaihuai today?"

"What are you doing? I was leading a tour group there today, and I just happened to meet him." Speaking of leading a tour group, Shen Xin had a lot of complaints to complain about. "You also know the three high school students in our group, right? Today Huang Jingt was forced to go into the haunted house, and I went in to find him, and Xie Kaihuai followed me, and we were so scared, hahahaha."

Ye Zhiyou: “…”

He actually felt a little bit of sympathy for Xie Kaikai.

"So are your members okay?"

"I'm fine, I was just scared. I felt much better by dinner time." Shen Xin finished one skewer of barbecue and reached for another, but his outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Ye Zhiyou looked at her in confusion: "What's wrong?"

Shen Xin stared at the phone in her hand and exclaimed, "Ye Zhiyou, are you on the hot search list?"

"?" Ye Zhiyou was even more confused, "What?"

"Look at this!" Shen Xin handed over her phone, "Is that you, the one Li Muyao was talking about?"

Li Muyao is a popular actress in the entertainment industry this year. In today's environment where male traffic is unstoppable, she has carved out a path for herself with her beauty. Of course, her acting skills are also remarkable. Shen Xin even watched her popular web drama this year online.

Now it feels like the dimensional wall has been broken!

"This 'shrewd Mr. Ye', is it you?" Shen Xin asked excitedly.

Ye Zhiyou thought for a moment and said, "It should be me."

Shen Xin: “…”

What do you mean by should?

"You said your father runs a film and television company, and it's Ruiyi Film and Television?" Shen Xin was shocked. Even though she didn't get involved in the entertainment industry much, she had heard of the famous Ruiyi Film and Television. Many popular TV actors nowadays are contracted actors of this company.

Ye Zhiyou looked at her and asked, "Is this worth mentioning?"

Shen Xin: “…”

Well, not worth mentioning. :)

"But you're on the trending search." Shen Xin still couldn't calm down, "Li Muyao said that her biggest wish next year is to see the sharp-minded President Ye again."

"...Oh." Ye Zhiyou responded indifferently.

Shen Xin: "...No, you are too calm, aren't you? Do you know how many male fans are jealous of you online? Just one sentence from Li Muyao and you're on the hot search list!"

Ye Zhiyou said: "I don't remember meeting her before. Maybe at Ruiyi's annual meeting?"

He has always been a figurehead president, but he is not in the company for 360 days out of 365 days a year. He only shows up symbolically at the annual meeting.

Shen Xin: “…”

He had no impression of Li Muyao, who could cause a sensation on the Internet with just a few words. What's worse is that Li Muyao's New Year wish was to see him again.

But then I thought, the man that even Li Muyao wanted to see but couldn't see is now eating skewers with me? ?

...Wow, that's really Marisue.

"What are you grinning about?" Ye Zhiyou asked.

Shen Xin came back to his senses and glared at him: "Who is grinning foolishly?"

Ye Zhiyou snorted and didn't answer. Shen Xin asked him curiously, "What did you do to Li Muyao to make the big star miss you so much?"

Ye Zhiyou said: "I told you, I don't even remember her."

"Wow, what a heartless man."

Ye Zhiyou: “…”

He was about to say something when his cell phone suddenly dinged. Xie Kaihuai had sent him a message.

Xie Kaihuai: Ye Zhiyou, I just thought about it for a long time in the room, and finally figured it out! I declare that I like Shen Xin! I want to compete with you!
