The rain got heavier and heavier. Yin Xun looked out of the car window. All she could see was a vast expanse of white. She could not see into the distance at all. The rain hit the car with a clattering sound as if it was being peppered by rocks.
Surely this was not ordinary rain? It was clearly hail.
The cars on the road were moving very slowly. Not long after, the car suddenly stopped. The driver said, “Young Master, the road ahead is blocked. There are police cars and ambulances outside. I think there was an accident. ‘
“Is there another way back?” Fang Yao asked.
Fang Yao was not familiar with this area. Even when he came over, he would have a driver, so he did not know if there was another way.
Yin Xun looked up. The road was not very wide, to begin with. Now, it was blocked.
“This is a one-way road. If you want to go back, you have to go to the front. Anyway, if you want to take another path, you’ll have to take a long detour,’ Yin Xun answered.
“The drainage system in this area isn’t very good. On normal days, it’s easy for water to accumulate. Now that the rain is so heavy, I reckon it won’t be long before water overflows to the ground. If there’s too much water, the car will get soaked.” Yin Xun leaned against the car window and looked out. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. She turned around and asked Fang Yao, “Fang Yao, are you in a hurry to go back?’
Fang Yao shook his head. ‘There’s no rush. What do you have in mind?”
“There’s a cinema nearby. The parking lot there is built on high ground. Since you don’t have anything urgent, how about we park there first?’ Yin Xun asked.
Cinema? Fang Yao thought for a moment. Could it be that Yin Xun wanted to watch a movie? This was a good opportunity.
“Alright,” Fang Yao agreed with a smile.
Yin Xun instructed the driver to drive to the cinema. After parking the car, Yin Xun and Fang Yao walked towards the cinema.
Yin Xun wanted to ask the driver to come along, but the driver knew his place. The servants all knew Fang Yao’s feelings for Yin Xun. It was not easy for the two of them to have time alone, and they were even watching a movie now. Naturally, he would not disturb them.
It was indeed hailing outside. The two of them walked toward the entrance of the cinema through the hail. Yin Xun raised her head and looked at the umbrella Fang Yao was holding. She could not help but arch her eyebrows. When she got back later, she would definitely ask Fang Yao where he had bought this umbrella. The quality was so good.
Because of the heavy rain, there was no one in the theater lobby except the ticket seller.
Fang Yao was just about to go to the front desk to see if there were any movies to watch when Yin Xun pulled him in another direction. Fang Yao asked in confusion, “Aren’t you going to watch a movie?”
‘When did I say I wanted to watch a movie? Do you want to watch one? If you do, we can go and watch it. It’s still early anyway.” Yin Xun’s tone was serious, and she did not seem to be joking.
Fang Yao, “…Then why are you here?’
‘You’ll know in a while.” Yin Xun gave Fang Yao a mysterious smile and then stopped talking.
Although he did not know what Yin Xun was up to, Fang Yao looked at Yin Xun holding his hand and his lips curled up slightly. This was not too bad either.
The two of them took the elevator to the underground and passed through a corridor that looked old and dilapidated. Only then did Fang Yao understand what Yin Xun wanted to do.
‘We’re here. I’ve been seeing the advertisements recently. I’ve been wanting to come over for a long time, but there’s a rule here that only two people who know each other can enter. I was just wondering who to find to accompany me, but now…” Yin Xun said as she pointed at the entrance of the Haunted House.
It turned out that Yin Xun was looking for this haunted house. What kind of hobby was this?
The corner of Fang Yao’s mouth twitched, and he sighed helplessly in his heart. He originally thought that Yin Xun had finally become a normal human, but now he realized that he was wrong.
Before entering, Yin Xun asked Fang Yao, “Are you afraid of going into the haunted house? If you’re scared and don’t want to go in, we can just watch a moue.”
Yin Xun did not like to force her friends to do anything. Besides, even boys could be afraid of this thing, so if Fang Yao said he did not want to go, she would not go in.
“I’ve never been here. I don’t mind going and taking a look.” Fang Yao wanted to say that he was not afraid, but after thinking about it, he decided not to make such a confident statement.
Seeing that Fang Yao was not against it, Yin Xun was relieved. She pulled Fang
Yao inside.
The outside of the haunted house was decorated in a terrifying and oppressive manner, but the hall was surprisingly cozy. There was no element of horror at all. This was different from the haunted houses she had imagined.
Yin Xun was mumbling discontentedly in her heart when she turned her head and saw two people sitting beside her. A girl was burying her head in a boy’s chest. Her body was twitching and she looked like she was crying.
Seeing this scene, Yin Xun immediately understood. The inside was horribly scary—the owners were afraid that the customers would not be able to recover when they came out, so the outside hall was warm and comfortable.
She looked forward to going in even more..
