1818 Old Liang Family Residence, Something Strange About Director Huang
Chi Shuyan came back a little late at almost 9pm, and Lu Wenjing, Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu had left by then. Qi Hao was sleeping on the couch, but immediately woke up when he heard the noise. When he saw that it was his sister-in-law, Qi Hao wanted to lie back down and continue sleeping, but he remembered what happened today and no longer felt like it. He hurriedly sat up, rubbed his eyes, and stretched. “Sister-in-law, you’re finally back. We waited for you for a long time, but you never came back, so the others left first!”
At this point, Qi Hao also mentioned how Lu Wenjing had been scared out of her wits in the afternoon. The longer he stayed here, the more uneasy he felt. If the production team was filming for five nights, tomorrow would be the last night – who knew if they would be able to leave the day after that.
Qi Hao had always been a person who spoke his mind, and when he asked the question, Chi Shuyan nodded and replied simply, “Soon!”
Hearing his sister-in-law’s words, Qi Hao heaved a sigh of relief.
He looked at the time and realized that it was 9pm. Qi Hao took a deep breath and couldn’t help but ask, “Sister-in-law, who do you think will die tonight? What game will we play tonight? By the way, Sister-in-law, did you not sleep last night? Where did you go?”
“You have so many questions – which one do you want me to answer first?” Chi Shuyan asked.
Qi Hao was a bit embarrassed. Chi Shuyan patiently replied to Qi Hao one after another, “Who will be the victim tonight? I don’t know. What game will we play? I don’t know either. Yes, I didn’t sleep last night, but went out for a walk!”
Qi Hao didn’t think much of it and nodded. “By the way, Sister-in-law, I heard that Xiao Ying’s body was found under Yun Yiyi’s bed? How on earth did Yun Yiyi die?”
At the mention of this, Chi Shuyan’s face didn’t look good either. She actually hadn’t gone for a walk last night, but had been in Yun Yiyi’s room.
She had thought that she had everything figured out, but she didn’t think that something would happen to Yun Yiyi because of Xiao Ying’s body. Xiao Ying’s body was filled with eggs and corpse bugs. When Yun Yiyi slept above Xiao Ying’s body, the corpse bugs burrowed into her abdomen and ate her clean.
Chi Shuyan also only found out that Xiao Ying’s body was hidden under Yun Yiyi’s bed after something happened to Yun Yiyi.
What she wanted to know the most now was when Xiao Ying’s body had been hidden under Yun Yi’s bed.
Thinking of Yun Yiyi’s room, Chi Shuyan couldn’t sit still, and wanted to take another look.
Seeing that his sister-in-law had just come back but was about to go out again, Qi Hao hurriedly got up. “Sister-in-law, where are you going? Shall I go with you?”
Chi Shuyan paused before she nodded.
Qi Hao followed his sister-in-law to Yun Yiyi’s room.
Qi Hao originally thought that after what happened to Yun Yiyi, there definitely wouldn’t be anyone in her room – he didn’t expect the light to be on inside. The door was half-closed, and a little light leaked out.
Was there someone inside?
Qi Hao was puzzled. Who would have the guts to come to Yun Yiyi’s room so late at night? Without waiting for his sister-in-law to speak, Qi Hao pushed the door open.
Director Huang was bending down to tidy up Yun Yiyi’s bed.
Qi Hao didn’t think much of it. He just felt that Director Huang was quite brave to dare touch a dead person’s things.
Director Huang obviously didn’t expect someone to come to Yun Yiyi’s room so late. Hearing the noise, his face stiffened and he immediately turned around. When he saw them, he squeezed out a smile. “Why are you here?”
Qi Hao didn’t know if it was because he was too sensitive, but he felt that Director Huang’s tone was a bit strange and unfriendly when he spoke to them. Taking a few more looks at Director Huang’s kind face, Qi Hao felt that he was thinking too much.
Chi Shuyan replied at that moment, “My cousin is quite sad that something happened to Miss Yun – after all, we’ve been together for many days. He didn’t dare come over earlier, so he asked me to come with him to take a look now.”
Qi Hao wasn’t a fool, and immediately nodded in agreement.
Who knew if Director Huang believed Ci Shuyan or not, but he nodded perfunctorily.
“Director Huang, what are you doing?” Chi Shuyan asked.
Director Huang smiled kindly again and said, “After what happened to Yiyi, everyone is quite worried and scared. Her room is in the middle of the hallway, and no one dares to pass by here in the middle of the night. After thinking about it, I just thought I would bury Yiyi’s things and dispose of the mattress; everyone can relax then.”
“Oh, I see!”
“Forget it, it’s a little late tonight. It won’t be easy to move the bed or deal with these things now. I’ll leave first. Have a look around if you want!” With that, Director Huang folded up the blanket and was about to leave.
“Wait!” Chi Shuyan originally didn’t want Director Huang to come into contact with anything on Yun Yiyi’s bed. She walked over and grabbed Director Huang’s wrist. She was about to exhort him, when he hurriedly jerked away, as if he had been electrocuted.
After pulling away, Director Huang seemed to realize that he had overreacted just now, and hurriedly explained to Chi Shuyan, “Sorry, sorry, I thought of something and you scared me.”
Chi Shuyan waved her hand and also smiled. “It’s fine, I acted too rashly. I just wanted to remind you to be careful when you handle Yun Yiyi’s belongings, just in case.”
Director Huang waved his hand cheerfully and said, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Celestial Master Chi, didn’t you get rid of all those bugs earlier? I’m not afraid, I’m not afraid!”
The two exchanged a few more words, and Director Huang found another excuse to leave first. Chi Shuyan didn’t ask him to stay, and sent him to the door with a smile. After he turned around, however, Chi Shuyan stared intently at Director Huang’s departing back. Then, her eyes fell on his strange, twisted shadow, and she fell into deep thought.
“Celestial Master Chi, is there anything else?” Director Huang stopped in his tracks and suddenly turned around. Chi Shuyan was caught off guard and was a bit surprised. Looking at the floor again, Director Huang’s shadow was very normal. Chi Shuyan frowned even more but said calmly, “It’s fine, it’s fine. Take care!”
