The president's wife with one child and five treasures is the favorite of the group

upstairs.

Mu Jingchen was rubbing Huangfu Liyue's shoulders.

"How's the strength?"

She nodded enjoyingly: "It's just right, why didn't I know you still have this skill before?"

He smiled immodestly: "There are still many things I know."

"Okay, you should be tired from playing today, take a bath and rest."

She grabbed his hand, stopped him, and pushed him to the bathroom.

After playing all day, she was very sleepy, went back to bed, and fell asleep not long after.

In a daze, she heard crying again, and it was clearer than the last time.

She suppressed her sleepiness and opened her eyelids with difficulty.

There was the sound of water in the bathroom, and Jing Chen was still taking a shower.

She got out of bed and walked to the window step by step, trying to find the source of the crying.

But it was pitch black below, and nothing could be seen.

She looks ahead.

This hotel is next to the previous homestay of the weird old lady.

Standing on the second floor of the hotel, Huangfu Liyue could see the empty yard of the old woman's house not far ahead.

Her eyes stayed in the yard for a few seconds, and after she found nothing unusual, she was about to look away.

At this moment, she suddenly found a black figure in the courtyard.

Upon closer inspection, it was the nagging old woman.

The old woman stood in the middle of the courtyard, facing her direction.

Because of the distance, she couldn't see the old woman's face clearly, but she could tell by feeling that the old woman was also looking at her.

Inexplicably, her back went cold, and she felt an indescribable sense of horror.

After the old woman appeared, the shrill cry disappeared.

Huangfu Liyue stood by the window for a long time, and the mother-in-law also stood with her for a long time.

Until Mu Jingchen walked out of the bathroom, saw her in a daze by the window, and shouted, "Liyue, what are you looking at?"

Huangfu Liyue regained her senses and looked at him.

"Jingchen, that old mother-in-law was really weird, she was always looking at me in the front yard."

"Is it?"

Mu Jingchen walked over suspiciously, and glanced out the window.

Then, he questioned: "Liyue, are you too nervous?"

Huangfu Liyue looked at the yard, the old lady had disappeared.

"It's really not that I'm nervous, I heard a strange cry just now, so I came to the window to check.

However, I didn't see anyone else, only the mother-in-law standing in the front yard, staring at me. "

She boldly guessed: "Jingchen, someone is locked up in that mother-in-law's house, right?"

"impossible."

Mu Jingchen closed the window and came to this conclusion almost without hesitation.

"That mother-in-law is so weak that she might not even be able to bully ordinary children. How could she have the ability to lock people up at home?"

"But everyone around here seems to be afraid of her."

Mu Jingchen still said: "It has nothing to do with us."

He closed the window and led her to the bed.

"Liyue, if you have concerns, we can move to another place tomorrow."

"That's not necessary."

Although she has some concerns, she has moved out of the mother-in-law's homestay now, and there is no need to change to another place.

"Stop talking about that, let's sleep."

Mu Jingchen made the bed, and the two of them lay down safely.

After turning off the lights, the room fell into silence.

Mu Jingchen walked a lot during the day and soon fell asleep.

But Huangfu Liyue's mind was full of images of that mother-in-law, and she couldn't sleep at all.

When she opened her eyes, the room was pitch-black, and she couldn't even see the outline of the furnishings.

She tossed and turned, unable to control what Cheng Cui had said before.

"None of us here know that this old lady's house is haunted!"

She believed that the theory of ghosts and gods was nonsense, but she couldn't control her curiosity and thought about it over and over again.

suddenly!

"Ugh..."

A miserable cry sounded.

The voice was so clear, as if it was right next to her ear.

She frowned and sat up.

She wanted to wake Mu Jingchen up, but when she thought of what he said "it's none of our business", she gave up this idea and got out of bed softly.

Opening the door, a gust of cold wind hit her, making her feel cold all over.

The light in the corridor outside seemed to be in poor contact, flickering on and off, and seemed to be echoing the intermittent crying.

She walked out of the room and followed the direction of the crying.

After going downstairs, the crying became clearer.

She was already sure that the owner of the cry was nearby.

She quickened her pace, trying to find the owner of the cry as soon as possible.

Around the corner, footsteps suddenly came from behind, getting closer and closer to her.

Suddenly, a hand was placed on her shoulder,

She grabbed the hand subconsciously and turned around to break it.

"it's me."

When Mu Jingchen opened his mouth, she quickly let go.

"Jingchen, why do you..."

"There are other guests staying here, let's go back to the room and say."

Mu Jingchen covered her mouth and led her back to the room.

"Jingchen, did you hear it just now, someone is really crying, I just want to see who it is."

She took a sip of water and looked up at him.

He sat down and said calmly: "It's just crying. The house here is not soundproof. Maybe it's a quarrel with the neighbors around. It's not worth wondering."

"But, that cry is scary."

She always feels that this is not the cry that can be uttered in a quarrel.

"I just followed the sound and found that the crying came from the mother-in-law's homestay. She seems to be hiding at home."

"That has nothing to do with us."

"We're just tourists here," he stressed.

"Yes, it's my fault for being too curious."

She went back to the bed and got under the covers.

"Let's go to sleep."

The light in the two's room quickly went out.

This time, Huangfu Liyue lay in Mu Jingchen's arms and soon fell asleep.

only……

Shortly after their lights went out, a woman in cloth shoes appeared in the hallway.

The woman stayed at the door of their room and put her ear on the door, as if she was listening to the movement inside.

When she heard that there was no sound inside, she raised her head and tiptoed away.

……

In the early morning, there was a knock on the door.

Huangfu Liyue, who was sleeping late, was woken up and turned over.

Mu Jingchen got up early and stepped forward to open the door.

"Hello, this is breakfast."

Wu Guixiang carried the tray and delivered the breakfast to him.

He took it and closed the door behind him.

Huangfu Liyue stayed here for a few days, without the help of Wei Feng's medicine, her health unexpectedly improved a lot.

When he brought breakfast into the room, she could already smell the aroma, and her appetite whetted, and she got up from the bed.

"What did you do? It smells so good!"

"Red bean bone soup, beef, vegetables..."

Mu Jingchen reported his name.

She sat down, looked at these sumptuous dishes, and asked in disbelief: "Is there such a big price difference between the urban area and here?"

Cheng Cui only charged them so little money.

If they were in Jiangcheng, they wouldn't even be able to stay in an ordinary hotel in the suburbs for a night with that amount of money.
