Chapter 17: A Swimming Ring Appears (1/2)



The room grew increasingly eerie.

Wang Qian, who was following closely behind, felt something was wrong. Suddenly, a hand patted her shoulder in the darkness.

She turned her head and saw, oh my god! A white-faced ghost with a long tongue was right in front of her!

"ah!"

Wang Qian made a triple jump, like an octopus, and wrapped her arms and legs around Ye Yichen.

The shout startled the brother and sister. They realized it was just an NPC dressed as a ghost to scare them. The NPC, having frightened them, smugly disappeared into the hidden door.

"Get down!" Ye Yichen shouted sternly.

He forcibly removed the ugly ornaments from his body.

"If you can't walk, don't follow me!"

Xiao Xi found it hilarious how Wang Qian had been so frightened.

She realized that Wang Qian's attitude had been so bad when she was begging for help, but now she was shameless and had turned into a clingy pest.

Wang Qian was scolded, and when she saw Xiao Xi smiling with her head down, she felt extremely resentful and glared at Xiao Xi.

Xiaoxi felt even more disgusted with Wang Qian.

She shouted it out on purpose.

"Brother, Xiaoxi is tired from walking, I want a hug!"

Ye Yichen still had a lot of energy left, so he easily picked up his younger sister.

Xiaoxi reached over her brother's shoulder and gave Wang Qian a smug grin.

Wang Qian was furious.

Because of Wang Qian's antics, the three of them went the wrong way and ended up deep inside the secret room, even though they were about to leave.

Next, several different NPCs appeared and tried to scare them, but the brother and sister remained calm and didn't react at all.

Xiaoxi has discovered the pattern of the NPCs coming and going.

Wang Qian cried and screamed several times, and no one knew when her coat had gone missing.

This time, she was so frightened that she rushed over and hugged Ye Yichen's waist.

Ye Yichen was holding Xiao Xi, and his waist was being hugged, which he found utterly annoying.

Is this never going to end? Xiaoxi decided to teach Wang Qian a lesson.

She whispered something in Ye Yichen's ear.

"Brother, put me down. I'm planning to give Miss Wang a big gift. Just wait and see."

Ye Yichen was just about to ask how to operate it.

An NPC jumped out with a "whoosh" and then slipped into the hidden door.

Xiaoxi seized the opportunity and, with lightning speed, grabbed the man's white robe and slipped into the secret passage together.

What are you doing?

"Uncle, I'm not trying to be naughty and cause you trouble, I just want to ask you for help!"

"I won't help! I'll take you out." The tone was extremely impatient.

The NPC grabbed Xiaoxi and left, and Xiaoxi took the opportunity to pinch several acupoints on his arm.

The man suddenly felt completely drained.

Xiaoxi playfully cornered him against the wall, which happened to be a blind spot for the security camera.

The man was completely exhausted and sat down on the ground. Xiaoxi ripped off his mask.

"Uncle is so handsome, but he doesn't help Xiaoxi at all? Then I don't think you're handsome!"

That person was so angry they almost laughed.

"I'm not asking your uncle for help for nothing. I'll transfer the money to you. Are you happy now?"

The man was initially angry, but seeing how capable Xiaoxi was, she subdued him in no time. Xiaoxi's smile was also so adorable, and besides, she even gave him money for helping him.

He wavered.

How do you want me to help?

Xiaoxi pinched the man's arm a few more times, and the man immediately recovered and stood up.

"Uncle, there are surveillance cameras here, this is not a place to talk."

Xiaoxi was worried that she had already been recorded by the surveillance cameras when she followed them in.

"That's easy to handle, isn't it?"

The man pulled Xiaoxi into a room.

So this is the prop storehouse.

The man took a laptop from the shelf and typed in rows of numbers, his fingers moving so fast they were barely visible.

Next, the surveillance video from earlier appeared on the screen, which included footage of Xiaoxi.

Then, in a flash, the screen disappeared, leaving only the image of that person walking leisurely by.

"Wow, Uncle is awesome!" Xiaoxi admired capable people.
