Chapter 8

The brown bug with thin armor slowly climbed along the rim of the porcelain cup.

Qiao Jing reached out to poke it, and the bug fell onto the tea table, curled up into a ball, lying motionless and pretending to be dead.

In the kitchen, Yu Bingwen was cleaning up the dishes.Luo Youning said that he was going to help him, but within a few minutes of entering, Qiao Jing heard the crisp sound of broken porcelain coming from inside.

Then Luo Youning was kicked out.He glanced at Qiao Jing who was sitting on the sofa, scratched his head, and couldn't help explaining in a low voice: "The detergent is too slippery."

Qiao Jing nodded in understanding.

The downpour brought the night down late, the rain fell on the glass window and crackled, and the falling water droplets slid into a waterfall-like rain curtain, making it difficult to distinguish the scenery outside the window.

The news network is broadcasting the opening song, the neighbor's child starts to play the electronic piano, and the sparse notes piece together a gentle edelweiss. The seemingly unchanging news on TV finally makes people lose patience.

Luo Youning pressed the remote control and changed several sets in a row, and finally stopped at the animal world of Central Nine. He turned his head and urged Yu Bingwen: "Are you ready! Come watch the movie!"

Yu Bingwen wiped his hands clean, and responded to his urging: "Here we come."

Qiao Jing sat unconsciously, the glasses reflected the bright light on the screen.Yu Luo and the other two squatted furtively in the drawer under the TV cabinet looking for the hidden "that kind of movie".

Yu Bingwen picked out a disc from the inside, and said with certainty, "It's this one!"

Luo Youning leaned over to watch, and the disc showed "Midnight Love" in large characters in dark green, accompanied by a woman's terrified expression, and the background was gloomy buildings.

Luo Youning was dubious: "This... looks a bit scary, is it really that kind of movie?"

Yu Bingwen looked experienced: "It should be about the relationship between people and ghosts, just like Nie Xiaoqian."

Luo Youning became more and more disbelieving: "But this looks like a modern movie."

Yu Bingwen was angry: "Why can't modern people have a relationship with ghosts? This name sounds like that, why can't it be that kind of movie!"

After listening for a long time, Qiao Jing vaguely understood the general idea.

Luo Youning finally compromised: "That's right. It must be that kind of film."

The screen switches to a blue screen, and the disc is pushed into the groove.The movie starts playing as the player turns and hums.

Luo Youning hugged the pillow with a nervous face, cross-legged next to Qiao Jing.

Yu Bingwen deliberately ran to lock the door and turned off the lights inside and outside the house.

The living room was pitch black, and after the fluorescent green title faded, a road slowly appeared on the screen.

Dawn is approaching, the wilderness is vast, and the car is speeding alone in the night.The camera zooms in gradually, entering the car, the driver is talking to the child in the back seat, and suddenly there is a knock on one side of the window.The driver Xunsheng looked up and saw a woman in white with a livid complexion suddenly appeared outside the car window.

The speed of the car had reached 120 mph, and the night scene on both sides was rapidly reversing. Only the woman stood motionless outside the car window and stared at him.

With a groan, Luo Youning picked up the pillow and covered it in front of her face.

Qiao Jing sat upright and did not change her expression, watching a movie was like listening to a class.

Yu Bingwen laughed at how fake the film was, and put his long arms around Luo Youning to comfort him: "What are you afraid of, it's all fake."

The pillow covered the scary scene, Luo Youning only dared to distinguish the sound with his ears upright, but the eerie soundtrack didn't let his ears go, he couldn't help but want to ask Yu Bingwen to change the movie: "Is this really that kind of movie?"

"This is newly rented by my dad, that's right," Yu Bingwen explained to him solemnly: "Maybe it's a ghost, you know."

Luo Youning had no choice but to look down patiently.

However, until the end of the movie, the plot they expected didn't happen, and the covering pillow couldn't be removed from his eyes.

Luo Youning was trembling with fear and had no intention of complaining anymore, Yu Bingwen even went in to take a bath with him.

After the two finished washing, it was Qiao Jing's turn.

Yu Bingwen deliberately pulled out a new set of pajamas and pajamas for him: "We are about the same height, you should wear this."

After Qiao Jing finished washing, the two of them were already huddled under the blanket.

Yu Bingwen spread a bamboo mat on the ground, and let Qiao Jing and Luo Youning sleep on the bed: "I'm afraid of the heat, so I can just sleep on the floor. This bed is not too big, and it's just right for you two to sleep on."

Each of them covered a thin blanket, Qiao Jing had no objection, but Luo Youning insisted on sleeping between them.

After the two of them lay down, Yu Bingwen ran barefoot and turned off the lights in the house.

Darkness and silence fell suddenly, and the rain outside the house continued to tap on the windows.

After a while, Luo Youning whispered, "Are you all asleep?"

Yu Bingwen pretended to snore, but Qiao Jing deserved him: "I haven't slept yet."

Luo Youning stretched out his feet and rubbed Yu Bingwen who was lying under the bed, and complained in a low voice: "Just this guy, he sleeps as fast as a pig."

Yu Bingwen suddenly grabbed his feet, his five fingers had just been soaked in water, and they were as cold as the claws of a water ghost: "Who does the little pig say is a pig?"

Luo Youning was taken aback at first, and kicked him again angrily: "Yu Bingwen, why are you crazy!"

Yu Bingwen laughed and scratched Luo Youning's soles, and was kicked a few times before letting go.He couldn't calm down, so he turned around and asked Qiao Jing again: "Qiao Jing, are you sleepy, shall we tell a ghost story?"

Qiao Jing was very honest: "I'm not sleepy, but I haven't heard any ghost stories."

"Ning Ning not only hears a lot, but also sees a lot." Yu Bingwen likes to tease Luo Youning, and he can't do without him. "When he was a child, it was said that his flame was low and he was very easy to be entangled. Later, his family specially sent him to learn martial arts to strengthen his body. It's a little bit better now."

Luo Youning kicked him again: "Nonsense! Since when have I seen a ghost!"

Yu Bingwen chuckled: "Why are you so forgetful? I still remember it. That time when we went to your hometown to play, in the middle of the night, you woke me up and said that there was a man by the window staring at us all the time. I'll accompany you to the bathroom—"

Luo Youning was very angry, and he couldn't sew Yu Bingwen's mouth shut.The consequence of his anger is to cover his head with a quilt and ignore it.

The fan in the corner rattled and swung its head, and the heat evaporated in the cool breeze.

The whispers during the bedtime chat at night are like chirping insects in the summer night, making people inexplicably reassured.
