1827 Old Liang Family Residence, Saving Qi Hao
“Sister-in-law, I’m scared!” Qi Hao suddenly said.
Chi Shuyan knew that this kid was deliberately acting cute with her and wasn’t really afraid. Speaking of which, she was a little impressed by his simple-minded character. She patted the side of the bed. “Do you want to sleep next to me?”
Qi Hao didn’t wait for his sister-in-law to finish speaking. His cousin’s especially serious and intimidating face instinctively flashed through his mind, and he hurriedly shook his head. He then heard his sister-in-law say, “Even if you want to, I won’t let you!”
Qi Hao was speechless.
“I knew it, Sister-in-law; in your heart, my cousin is more important than I am.” Qi Hao couldn’t help but be a little jealous.
“You’re only realizing that now?” Chi Shuyan replied coldly.
Qi Hao: “…” Did his sister-in-law have to be so honest?
Knowing that he really couldn’t compare with his cousin in his sister-in-law’s heart, Qi Hao resigned himself to his fate. However, even if he couldn’t be first in his sister-in-law’s heart, he could still be second. Wait, there was still his sister-in-law’s father. Fine, he was still third in his sister-in-law’s heart.
“Okay, rest early!” Chi Shuyan was afraid of this kid talking too much, so she quickly had him sleep first.
This kid could actually sleep so soundly. He had been so lively earlier, but fell asleep quickly, and even snored.
Fine, seeing that this kid had been unlucky tonight, she reluctantly forgave him for snoring. Fortunately, she didn’t plan to sleep tonight.
Worried that something would happen to Haozi, Chi Shuyan simply got out of bed and sat on the floor to meditate. Nothing happened, even until late into the night.
Even so, Chi Shuyan didn’t dare slack off. She was vigilant and kept an eye on her surroundings and Haozi’s face.
Qi Hao suddenly woke up in the middle of the night in a daze. He wanted to get up and go to the bathroom, but someone suddenly pressed him down. Then, his sister-in-law’s familiar voice rang out. “Where are you going?”
“Sister-in-law, I need to pee… I need to pee.” Qi Hao’s face was a bit green from holding his pee, and he couldn’t wait to go to the washroom immediately.
“I’ll go with you!”
“Sister-in-law, why are you coming with me? Don’t, don’t, don’t… I’ll go myself!” Qi Hao completely forgot about his bad luck at getting the most votes tonight. He struggled free of his sister-in-law’s grip and quickly ran to the washroom.
Unfortunately, no matter how fast he was, his sister-in-law still tugged at his belt. Chi Shuyan’s tone was irrefutable. “I’ll go with you!”
The two walked to the washroom. Seeing that his sister-in-law really planned to go in with him, Qi Hao was scared out of his wits and hurriedly said, “No, no, no… Sister-in-law, I’ll go myself. I can’t pee with you around.”
Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak again, Qi Hao pushed her away and quickly ran to the washroom, closing the door behind him.
Chi Shuyan’s expression was very hard. If it wasn’t for the difference between men and women, she would have kicked the door open immediately, but she was afraid that Haozi would be traumatized.
“Haozi, are you done?” Chi Shuyan called out worriedly.
“Soon, soon, Sister-in-law! I’m almost done. Sister-in-law, go back to the bedroom and rest first. I’ll go back on my own later!”
After thinking for a moment, Chi Shuyan was going to continue waiting for him outside the washroom, when out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw a piece of paper that had been slipped under the front door.
She turned on the light in the living room, walked over, and picked up the paper. She glanced at it: It was a reminder for her and Haozi to be especially careful of Song Yanru and Lu Wenjing, and hinted that those two were the ones who had voted for Haozi. Chi Shuyan’s expression was calm and unsurprised, but the temperature in her gaze dropped drastically, and her face was filled with icy, murderous intent.
“Haozi, why aren’t you saying anything?”
“Sister-in-law, I was really quick. I’m done.” In the washroom, Qi Hao quickly zipped up and took a deep breath. Sure enough, he felt a lot more comfortable after peeing.
He wasn’t in a hurry to open the door, but went to the sink to wash his hands. He hummed and looked in the mirror to admire his handsome face. The sound of water splas.h.i.+ng only highlighted how quiet the washroom was.
Who knew if it was because the washroom was too quiet, but when Qi Hao looked in the mirror, he felt that something wasn’t right. He also heard a strange, faint rustling sound, like the sound of numerous crawling bugs. Moreover, the sound grew louder and louder, as if it was getting closer and closer to him.
Ever since Qi Hao saw the tragic deaths of He Liuqing and the others, what he was the most afraid of was bugs. Only then did he remember that something was going to happen to him tonight.
His heart shook and turned cold. He didn’t even have time to regret closing the door and not letting his sister-in-law follow him in; he had actually forgotten that he could die tonight.
If something really happened to him, it would definitely be his own fault.
Qi Hao didn’t have time to think too much, and was about to flee. He hurriedly turned off the tap and went to open the door.
As long as he opened the door, his sister-in-law would be outside, and she could deal with anything.
With shaking hands, he turned off the tap and was about to leave, when he saw a black ma.s.s of bugs pour out of the mirror and instantly cover the surface of the large mirror completely. A black ma.s.s of bugs also crawled out of the tap and instantly covered the entire sink. Tens of thousands of red compound eyes stared greedily at him, scaring Qi Hao so much that his vision turned black and his soul almost left his body.
Qi Hao’s legs shook and he felt dizzy. With a buzz, the black bugs suddenly flew right at Qi Hao’s face. Qi Hao’s incomparably sharp and terrified cry for help could practically tear the entire building apart. “Sister-in-law, help!”
