1790 Old Liang Family Residence, Hide and Seek
When Qi Hao returned to his room and saw his sister-in-law, he relaxed. Even though he had already given the Fang and Lu guys advice, he still worried for them.
He firmly believed his sister-in-lawās words. There was definitely something strange about this place. Fortunately, he was staying in the same room as his sister-in-law, and he felt especially safe. Even if he had to sleep on the floor, he was still very happy at that moment. He just hoped that the other two young men would listen to him and strive to survive these five nights.
Feeling thirsty, Qi Hao drank a cup of water and started to make a bed on the floor. As he did so, he thought of his goddess, Film Empress Song, and couldnāt help but ask his sister-in-law, āSister-in-law, did Film Empress Song look for you just now? Should we also warn her to be careful?ā
Qi Hao had a better impression of Song Yanru than of Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen, so he naturally didnāt want anything to happen to her.
Seeing that Qi Hao had a good impression of Song Yanru, Chi Shuyan narrowed her eyes and teased, āWhat? Have you fallen for her?ā
These teasing words made Qi Hao flush red, and he looked very embarrassed. He hurriedly waved his hand, afraid that his sister-in-law would continue teasing him, and he stuttered as he replied, āNo, no, noā¦ Sister-in-law, Iā¦ Iā¦ Iā¦ I think good people should live long lives, right? Film Empress Song is a good person, so I see her as an idol and I admire her, hehe!ā
After confirming that Qi Hao did simply admire Song Yanru and nothing else, Chi Shuyan relaxed and didnāt ask further.
Qi Hao hurriedly wiped his cold sweat. Even if he really liked Film Empress Song, given their age difference, his parents would definitely break his legs. How could he dare to be so rash as to fall for her?
Fortunately, he had his phone and enough battery, so time passed quickly as they stayed inside the room. Because they werenāt guests, Chi Shuyan and Qi Hao didnāt receive any mission cards.
When there was some movement outside and the occasional snatches of conversation, Chi Shuyan looked at the time and saw that it was 12:30am.
Qi Hao usually slept early, and he was sleepy now. He dozed off as he lay on the floor, and didnāt wake up at the noise outside as he just switched to a different position in his sleep.
Chi Shuyan originally thought that Song Yanru would come and ask her to join them once the guests started filming. However, when everyone started to gather for the game, Song Yanru didnāt have someone come and call for her. It wouldnāt be nice for Chi Shuyan to go downstairs now, so she opened the window in her room to look at the inner courtyard.
In the inner courtyard, the eight guests and one director were filming the show.
Chi Shuyan released her mental strength, and heard the director of the production team recite a long ad. He then said, āWelcome to āLate Night Horror Game.ā Iām the assistant director, Xinxin. Iāll be hosting this episode. Tonight is the first of five nights that we are filming in the old Liang family residence. Because today is the first day, I donāt want to make things difficult for everyone. Why donāt we play a light and simple opening game tonight? The game is called hide-and-seek, and itāll be inside the old Liang family residence.
āThere are a total of eight golden eggs on the table, each with a note hidden inside. On the note will be written āhideā or āseekā. Everyone, choose a golden egg, break it, and see what word you get. Okay, the game starts now. Everyone, choose a golden egg.ā
The eight originally sleepy guests relaxed but also sobered up when they heard that they would be playing a simple game of hide-and-seek. The main reason was that this place was too unfamiliar and it was the middle of the night, which was a little scary.
None of them wanted to get the word āseek.ā After all, everyone could hide together, but there would only be one āseeker,ā who would have to look everywhere. The darkness in and outside the old Liang family residence creeped them out a little.
Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen in particular had practically been brainwashed by Brother Qiās words about there being ghosts in this world. Looking at their dark surroundings, cold sweat inexplicably broke out on their foreheads and their bones turned cold. They really didnāt want to be unlucky enough to be the āseeker.ā
Although most people were a little cowardly, they knew that this wasnāt the time to behave as such. Performing well on the show was the most important; it would be even better if they could catch the audienceās attention and become popular or even just become a trending topic.
So, everyone immediately plucked up their courage and fought to be the first to break their egg, afraid that they would be a step behind the others.
As if she had been granted amnesty, Lu Wenjing immediately exchanged notes with Du Zhong and didnāt forget to thank him.
Zhou Chengfei couldnāt help but purse his lips at Du Zhongās sudden move. If he had known earlier, he would have moved faster so that Du Zhong wouldnāt steal the limelight.
Zhou Chengfei was well aware that āboyfriendā characters and āromanticā subplots attracted the most fans on variety shows. In the end, he could only purse his lips, disdain in his eyes. However, he was glad that the person who had gotten the āseekā note was Lu Wenjing and not Film Empress Song. Otherwise, wouldnāt that idiot, Du Zhong, be in the limelight?
He would never allow someone less famous than him to steal the limelight.
āOkay, except for Du Zhong, the others have ten minutes to hide. The range is limited to the old Liang family residence, and no one is allowed to go out of the lane, understand? Ten minutes later, Du Zhong will start looking for you!
āOkay, let the game begin!ā
