At the beginning, the little koi carp was grabbed by a wolf and became the favorite of the beasts.

Because Jinbao and the others were going to Beijing the next day, the Zheng family all slept very late today.

The whole family gathered in the main room chatting, and it wasn't until Jin Bao closed his eyes and kept nodding that everyone was willing to leave.

Zhou wanted to stay with Jinbao for a while, so she carried her back to her house.

Zhao Yusheng was arranged to stay in Yu Yan's room, and the two of them slept together for one night.

Yu Yan was okay, but she fell asleep when she touched the pillow.

But Zhao Yusheng had insomnia.

The wind outside the house was not strong, but there was a "rustling~" sound blowing on the branches.

When it reached Zhao Yusheng's ears, it was like the snakes he saw on the mountain in the afternoon, so densely packed that he couldn't get rid of them.

She blocked her ears with her hands, but it was of no use.

That tiny voice is like a magic spell, reaching straight to the bottom of my heart.

Looking at the dark room, the fear in her heart became more and more intense. She couldn't help but stretched out her hand and slowly reached out to Yu Yan beside her...

Yu Yan beside her was about to fall asleep, but there were always people tossing and turning around her, and the noise coming from her made her sleep uneasy at all.

In a daze, a slight touch suddenly came from his arm, and the corresponding direction was Zhao Yusheng's position.

At this time, Yu Yan's mind kept echoing Zhao Yusheng's words about her being possessed by a ghost, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

The creepy feeling made her wake up instantly, all the hairs on her body stood up, and blood rushed to her forehead.

It's over, the ghost in her is coming to find her!

When Zhao Yusheng next to him saw that she didn't move, he thought she was asleep, so his movements gradually became louder and he began to hold her arms with both hands.

Just hugged me...

The more Yu Yan thought about it, the more frightened she became, and finally she couldn't help but scream loudly: "Help! Ghost!"

While shouting, he withdrew his arms, buried his head under the pillow, and shivered.

The voice sounded so miserable that Zhao Yusheng was so frightened that he forgot what he was going to do and stood aside without daring to move.

The sharp screams were particularly prominent in the silent night, scaring Zhou and the others so much that they quickly got up from the bed and ran over to inquire about the situation.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

After a knock on the door, Zhou's worried voice came: "Yu Yan, open the door quickly, what's wrong with you?"

When she heard a familiar voice calling her name, Yu Yan jumped up quickly, without even wearing any shoes, and ran over to open the door in the dark.

The moment she saw Mr. Zhou, she couldn't help but throw herself into her arms and cry.

"Aunt...wuwu..."

"what happened?"

Seeing her crying so pitifully, Zhou became even more worried.

"Woooo...there's...there's a ghost~"

Yu Yan kept sobbing, not daring to lift her head from her arms.

Mrs. Zhou patted Yu Yan's back and comforted her softly: "This is in our home. There is no such thing as nonsense. Don't talk nonsense."

After saying that, she walked into the house with Yuyan in her arms and lit the candles on the table.

Yu Yan still had a look of fear on her face and kept holding her arm tightly, unwilling to let go for a moment.

By the candlelight, Mrs. Zhou looked at the bed and saw Zhao Yusheng huddled in the corner, looking at a loss.

She couldn't help but ask: "What is going on between you two?"

Zhao Yusheng looked up and said apologetically: "Yes...I'm sorry, I heard the 'rustling...' noise outside, and I thought of the snakes on the mountain. I was really scared. I just want to sleep holding Yuyan’s arm..."

She didn't expect that her actions would frighten her like this. She must have thought she was possessed by a ghost.

Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this. She had always thought that Yu Yan was brave, but she didn't expect to see her being frightened and crying.

"Okay, you've seen it too. There's nothing there. You're just scaring yourself!"

After saying that, she pulled Yu Yan to sit on the bed and gently touched her forehead to the back of her neck with her hands.

While touching, he muttered: "If you touch your hair, you won't be scared. If you touch your head, you will be scared for a while. If you touch your hands, you won't be scared away..."

I repeated it three times before stopping.

Maybe the words she muttered had an effect, or maybe Zhou's movements were too gentle. Yu Yan gradually calmed down, and the panic on her face slowly faded away.

With a smile on her face, Zhou asked softly: "Are you still afraid?"

Yu Yan raised her head, glanced at Wan Niang and others standing at the door, pinched her fingers in embarrassment, lowered her head and said, "I...I'm not afraid anymore. Aunt, you go back to sleep!"

Normally careless, I finally saw the shyness of a little daughter at this moment.

He probably felt embarrassed about his behavior after the panic passed.

Zhou looked at her red earlobes and joked: "Are you really not afraid anymore?"

Yu Yan lowered her head, "I'm really not afraid anymore..."

"Then don't put out the candle today. You two should go to bed early. You have to go on the road tomorrow morning."

Zhou smiled and walked out, closing the door behind her.

Zhao Yusheng and Yu Yan, one curled up at the head of the bed and the other sat at the end of the bed, remained silent for a while.

In the end, Zhao Yusheng couldn't help but break the awkwardness and said: "I'm sorry Yu Yan, I didn't mean it. I thought you were asleep and wanted to hold you to find some sense of security..."

She was indeed so frightened at that time that she couldn't help herself.

"No, no, I don't blame you. I reacted too much. Are you still afraid of those snakes now?"

Yu Yan shook her head and asked slightly worriedly.

"Uh~ I forgot about snakes because of your voice."

Zhao Yusheng started joking when he saw her expression returned to normal.

Yu Yan scratched her head in embarrassment and explained: "Actually, I'm quite brave, but I'm more afraid of things that I can't see or touch..."

It's okay if you can see it. If you like it, look at it twice. If you don't like it, avoid it. If you can't see it, you won't even know where to hide.

"I'm not that timid, but I'm quite sensitive to molluscs. They're as soft as if they have no bones..."

Zhao Yusheng said and couldn't help but shudder.

If it's just one person, it's fine, and it's still acceptable. But once they get together, you won't be able to see them, and you'll suffer from trypophobia.

At this point, the two looked at each other and smiled, and their relationship seemed to get closer.

"Um, is that thing still on you?"

Although the two of them made sense, Yu Yan still felt a little confused.

She always felt that the ghost in Zhao Yusheng would pounce on her while she was sleeping. If this continued, she would not be able to fall asleep tonight.

"It seems that I guessed it right. Did you just think that I was possessed by a ghost?" Zhao Yusheng asked helplessly.

She didn't know how to explain the system. She originally thought that it would be enough to let them think of the system as a ghost, but she didn't expect that such an unexpected incident would happen.

Yu Yan smiled awkwardly, blushed and nodded.
