Chapter 407
407 Am I pregnant?
Chi Yi was informed that she would be going on a business trip to visit an antique expert who stayed at home but did not come out often. She planned to write a small column on antiques.
He was gone for two days.
Chi Yi had no choice but to pack and check her luggage on the same day and fly off to wherever she wanted.
This antique expert lived in seclusion in an ancient town called qigang. This ancient town was famous for its antiques and many official graves had been unearthed there.
It was already evening by the time Chi Yi arrived at the old town. Fortunately, the magazine agency had already booked a hotel room for her.
The hotel was also in the style of an ancient town, so it was more appropriate to call it a restaurant than a hotel.
The house was simple and unsophisticated, with the architectural style of the Qing Dynasty. For some reason, the moment Chi Yi stepped in, she felt an inexplicable cold air blowing against her face, causing her to shiver.
Even so, she still braced herself and went to the front desk to get the room card.
Carrying her luggage, she walked up the retro wooden steps step by step. As she pa.s.sed by a long corridor, she saw two or three girls discussing Yunyun while hanging a mural on the corridor.
“Do you see the woman in the middle wearing a flag? That was the Empress from the Qianlong period. It was said that she had left this house. Later, because of some deception in the palace, the Empress was demoted from the Forbidden City for some reason. As soon as she returned, she directly jumped into the well to commit suicide! Did you see? It’s that well.”
As the girl spoke, she did not forget to turn around and point at the well on the first floor. There really was a small well lying there!
The well was very small, and it really looked like it could only accommodate one person. Under the moonlight, the well was white and eerie, making people feel a chill for no reason.
The other two girls were fl.u.s.tered. then will we be haunted here, Yingluo? ”
“It’s hard to say for sure about ran ran!” The girl who was telling the story was trying to scare them.
Haunted?
Chi Yi did not believe that!
Where did ghosts come from these days? Unless he had a guilty conscience!
“AI! “Why do I feel that the Empress in this painting is getting more and more sinister?” one of the girls really acted like a wind and rain.
Chi Yi could not help but stretch her neck to look inside curiously when she heard her say that.
It would have been fine if they did not take a look at her. She still felt that the girls ‘words were too exaggerated, but the moment she took a look at them, she shuddered without reason.
Heavens! The Empress’s face in the middle was really as l.u.s.tful as the little girl had said.
It was eerie!
With a pale face, blood-red lipstick on her lips, a flag head, and a red flag dress, the scene was really horrifying!
Chi Yi did not dare to look at him any longer.
That one glance was enough to leave a deep impression on her.
She pulled the luggage in her hand and walked quickly, not daring to stay a second longer.
In the narrow and long corridor, it was abnormally quiet. Only the sound of her suitcase rolling against the floor could be heard. It was particularly m.u.f.fled.
Chi Yi subconsciously quickened her pace.
However, when she raised her head, she saw a graceful figure in front of her.
It was a girl, Yingluo.
She was not far in front of Chi Yi as she slowly walked forward. Her gait was light, and her two little arms hanging by her sides swayed up and down gently. The way she walked was quite similar to those graceful concubines in Palace dramas.
The Empress?
Chi Yi snapped out of her daze. In the next moment, when she saw the red cheongsam the girl was wearing, she was so shocked that she almost screamed.
