I Became a Heartthrob After A Job in Quick Transmigration
Chapter 43 Bloody Star
Ye He felt the system let go of his arm, as if it had sensed his gaze, the system turned its head, without the motion sickness reaction Ye He imagined, but said calmly: [Let's go. 】
The driver in the front seat was the first to get out of the car and bent down to help Shen Sinian's uncle open the door.After Shen Sinian's uncle got out of the car, he went straight to the door of the car where Ye He was, and opened the door for him.
This made Ye He a little flattered, and quickly thanked him.
The Shen family's main house was built in the suburbs. Ye He got out of the car and looked around. Except for the villa standing not far away, there were no other people. It can be said that this place is extremely desolate.
The system also noticed this, and completely extinguished the idea of taking Ye He and running directly.It didn't want Shen Sinian's uncle to see his abnormality, so it forcibly suppressed the strange look that was about to appear on his face, and pretended to be calm and asked Ye He to get off the car together.
family?What exactly does it mean?
The system can't figure it out, the only thing it can be sure of now is that it seems that Shen Sinian's uncle has no intention of breaking up with them yet, so they are still safe now.
After weighing the pros and cons, the system decided to wait and see what happened. After all, it and Ye He had already arrived at the Shen family's territory, and if they annoyed the other party, they didn't know what would happen.
The originally clear sky suddenly turned gloomy, with dark clouds covering the sun, it looked like it was going to rain, but Ye He felt that the weather was as heavy as his own heart.
Needless to say, the house is full of Shen family members.Although in the car, Shen Sinian's uncle didn't show any reaction of blaming him for Shen Sinian's death, but the rest of the Shen family might think so.
Thinking of this, Ye He's heartstrings suddenly tensed, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
After the system also got off the car, Shen Sinian's uncle led a group of people towards the villa: "Go this way, Si Nian is in the house."
In....in the house?This statement is so strange.
Although he knew that Uncle Shen Sinian meant that Shen Sinian's coffin was in the villa, Ye He couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he heard what the other party said suddenly, and felt a little extra when he looked at the villa in front of him. spooky.
And from Uncle Shen's intimate word "Si Nian", it doesn't sound like he has a bad relationship with Shen Sinian, so why did he smile just now?
He used to think that Shen Sinian and Uncle Shen were plastic uncles and nephews, but now he is not so sure.
The water of the wealthy family is too deep, Ye He felt that he could not grasp it.
Hearing Uncle Shen's words, the system's expression was not good either.
It deliberately pulled Ye He, wanting Ye He to get closer to it, so that it could remind him.But I didn't expect that as soon as the system's hand was on Ye He's arm, Uncle Shen suddenly turned his head and said meaningfully to the system: "I noticed it in the car before, but I'm not ashamed to say it. You are Mr. Ye's manager." Right? Some behaviors should be paid attention to."
Pay attention to what?
Ye He was confused by what he heard, and looked at the system subconsciously, and asked in a low voice at a volume that only one of them could hear: "What does he mean?"
The system put down its hand, and its face was a little ugly: [He hopes that we can keep a distance between the two of us. 】
Ye He was even more confused: "Why keep a distance? Aren't we both men?"
Or is this Uncle Shen despising brotherhood?
System: 【......Maybe because he doesn't know that I'm not human. 】
Its attention was always on Uncle Shen in front of it.Seeing that the system withdrew its hand, Uncle Shen didn't say much, just turned around and continued walking.
Looking at his back, the system suddenly asked tentatively: [Has the date of Mr. Shen's funeral been set?I don't know if we can come to participate at that time. 】
Ye He didn't expect the system to ask such a sensitive question so bluntly, and his heart suddenly felt sweaty for the system.However, he was really curious about this question, so he pricked up his ears to hear Uncle Shen's answer. After all, there is no news about the date of Shen Sinian's funeral on Weibo.
Who would have thought that Uncle Shen acted as if he hadn't heard it, and didn't intend to answer the question, nor was he offended by the system's question as Ye He thought, and his expression was flat from the beginning to the end.
The door of the villa was wide open, and there were two servants in black clothes standing at the door. Seeing the three people coming, they all saluted respectfully.
Uncle Shen nodded slightly as a response, and then walked directly into the hall with one person.
The hall was very quiet, only the footsteps of a few people.As soon as Ye He stepped into the hall, he smelled a scent of incense, and his eyes couldn't help but follow the direction of the aroma.
The hall of the villa has been arranged to look like a mourning hall. Shen Sinian's photo is placed in the center. Although Shen Sinian's handsome appearance is not damaged under the black and white photo, his indifferent expression reveals a bit of gloom.
And the aroma Ye He smelled just now came from the candlelight on the altar.Besides the candles, there was also a tablet with Shen Sinian's name on the altar.
Under the tablet is a coffin, Ye He took a look and couldn't help but look away. Although he didn't see Shen Sinian falling down at that time, he could still see the tragic situation from the blood on the ground.
The mourning hall was very quiet, except for Ye He System and Uncle Shen, there was no one else.The system was about to ask what was going on, when it heard footsteps not far away.
The system and Ye He looked in the direction of the footsteps at the same time, and suddenly several people came out of the corridor next to them.
Headed by a couple with exquisite looks, Ye He guessed that they should be Shen Sinian's parents. After all, Shen Sinian's facial features seemed to be based on the advantages of the couple.
There are several people behind the couple, most of them are wearing black suits or skirts, but there are also three or four people wearing gray robes, which look out of place in the villa.
What made Ye He feel uncomfortable was that the moment these people stepped out of the room, their eyes fell on him instantly.Especially those dressed in shabby clothes, their eyes were more sharp and careful, almost looking at him from head to toe, as if they were looking for something.
The leading couple was also looking at Ye He, and compared to other people, their eyes were a little more satisfied.
Ye He was uncomfortable being stared at by these gazes, and when he subconsciously wanted to hide from the system, the beautiful woman in the couple walked forward while dragging a long black dress, and said softly, "You are Ye He, right? I am Shen Sinian's mother, she never thought that we would meet in such a scene."
Her voice is as gentle as spring rain, making people involuntarily want to let go of their guards.
If it weren't for the fine lines at the corners of the eyes that revealed her age, a woman would not look like a child as old as Shen Sinian at all.
Ye He didn't expect that he really guessed the other party's identity correctly.
Hearing Shen's mother's words, Ye He's footsteps stopped instantly.He was a little at a loss for women, not to mention that the woman in front of him was a mother who lost her son.
Mother Shen stepped forward, gently grabbed Ye He's wrist with the hand wearing the jade bracelet, her eyes were flushed: "Although Si Nian has mentioned you many times in front of me before, this is the first time we have met."
Ye He's body froze, of course he couldn't shake off Shen's mother's hand, so he could only take a deep breath, let his hand be held by the other party, and said with difficulty: "Auntie, I'm sorry... ...."
He just wanted to say his condolences by the way, but he couldn't help but pause when he saw Shen's mother's expression at this time.Although Shen's mother's eyes are red and her body is still trembling slightly, Ye He somehow feels that Shen's mother's reaction is not sad, but more like...
More like joy.
Ye He even felt that Shen's mother, who was staring at him intently, was trying to suppress the smile that was about to emerge from the corner of her lips, which made him unable to say what he originally wanted to say for a while.
But Ye He didn't want to think the worst about a mother who had just lost her son, so he could only blame it on the fact that he stayed with the system for too long, and his ability to perceive human emotions gradually declined.
What's more, Shen's mother's attitude is far better than what Ye He imagined. He heard the system describe the tough attitude of the Shen family, and thought that Shen's mother would directly regard him as the culprit of Shen Sinian's death, or because he was Shen Sinian's death. Si Nian's homosexual made things difficult for him, which caused Ye He to be very scared all the way here, but now it seems that Shen's mother is a gentle woman.
As if seeing Ye He's nervousness, Shen's mother patted the back of his hand as a reassurance: "Don't worry, Si Nian's father and I are not unreasonable people, we already know from the police that Si Nian committed suicide gone."
"What's more, you and Sinian are so in love, you must be very sad because of this incident."
Hearing Shen's mother's words, Ye He let go of half of his heart, but the other half still felt panic.And from Shen's mother's description, it seemed that she didn't know that he was already Shen Sinian's ex-boyfriend.
Of course, it was impossible for Ye He to tell Shen's mother the truth in such an environment, he could only lower his eyes and look sad.
At this moment, Shen's mother suddenly pulled Ye He's arm, signaling him to follow her forward: "This is your first time here, I will show you to recognize someone."
Recognize...recognize people?
Ye He subconsciously blurted out: "Who do you recognize?"
Shen's mother took his hand and explained in a gentle voice: "The relatives of the Shen family always need to be recognized."
Ye He's heart skipped a beat. According to the Shen family's intention, didn't he just need to take a look?Why do you still need to recognize someone?
And why not let him watch Shen Sinian?
Ye He subconsciously looked at the system, wanting to find a place to discuss with the system about the weirdness of the Shen family, but he did not expect to see the system and Uncle Shen standing with Father Shen, obviously discussing something, it is impossible to help him at this time.
Looking at the thin back of Shen's mother, Ye He couldn't say no to it for a while, so he could only walk a few steps forward along with Shen's mother's strength.
Shen's mother held Ye He's hand and said: "I heard from Si Nian's agent that you didn't live in the previous house. That house should be bigger than the one you live in now. Why don't you continue to live in it?"
Ye He reacted for a few seconds before realizing that the house that Shen's mother mentioned should be the house that Shen Sinian and he rented before. He was not surprised that Shen's mother knew the address of the house he lived in later. Just checked him out.
And the reason why he didn't continue to live there was very simple, of course it was because he broke up with Shen Sinian, and Shen Sinian was still dead.
But of course you can't say this to Shen's mother, Ye He said in a low voice: "I'm afraid of touching the scene."
Shen's mother seemed to be bent: "It's okay to move back in a few days."
This real estate was registered under Shen Sinian's name, and it was regarded as the Shen family's real estate, but now Shen's mother said that Ye He should continue to live in it.
Hearing Mama Shen's words, Ye He's first reaction was not to think that the other party was kind, but to feel that the woman in front of him always had a lingering sense of strangeness.
In other words, the entire Shen family felt a sense of disobedience. If it weren't for Shen Sinian's photo still on the altar, Ye He would have found it hard to believe that the family had just lost their child.
Suddenly there was a soft sound behind him, which was especially obvious in the silent hall.Ye He turned his head to look, only to find that it was the two servants who closed the door.
Although he knew that closing the door was a perfectly normal thing, Ye He still became nervous for no reason.
Shen's mother had already pulled Ye He towards those people. Those relatives were all from the same family. When Ye He thought that they were Shen Sinian's relatives, it was strange for him to address them accordingly.Fortunately, Shen's mother didn't force him to call every relative by name. Seeing that Ye He couldn't say it, she smiled reassuringly and walked towards the next person.
After a while, Ye He walked up to those people in robes.Before, Ye He didn't pay attention to it from a distance, but after getting closer, Ye He realized the strangeness of these people.
Standing at the front is an old man who looks to be in his 90s, but his figure is not half-shouldered.His skin was wrinkled like a walnut, and his eyeballs seemed to be only one-third the size of a normal person due to atrophy, and they protruded outward like fish eyes.
Although Ye He is not a member of the Appearance Association, he has to admit that the eyes of the old man in front of him are very evil.
However, Shen's mother introduced him as a famous master who was specially invited by the Shen family to help Shen Sinian perform rituals, and the people in long robes behind him were the master's apprentices.
Ye He didn't know what Shen's mother brought him to see the master, so he could only smile awkwardly at the master and his apprentices.
Shen's mother has already enthusiastically introduced: "In addition to Buddhist rituals, this master also has extremely high attainments in divination, such as marriage test..."
Ye He had a look of lack of interest. If the system wasn't around, he would definitely let the system and Shen's mother talk about the dangers of feudal superstition.
Mother Shen: "There is still a future..."
Ye He's eyes lit up suddenly, he leaned close to Shen's mother, and asked in a low voice, "Is it spirit?"
What feudal superstition, this is clearly the guiding light of life!
Before Shen's mother could respond, the master's fish-like eyes stared at Ye He for a few seconds, then suddenly stretched out his skinny hand like lightning, and patted Ye He's shoulder with a dry voice as if Grinded by dead bark: "Here."
Although the master is very old, his strength is not small.Ye He only felt that his shoulder was hit hard with a hammer, half of his body was a little numb, his body trembled violently, and it took a few seconds before he raised his other arm to touch the place that was photographed .
Ye He: "What... what is here?"
He couldn't help asking while rubbing his shoulders, and instantly forgot that he was still interested in measuring his stardom just now.
If it hadn't been for the fact that the person in front of him was already over 90 years old, and he was still a master invited by the Shen family, and most importantly, there were a few tall and burly apprentices behind him, Ye He would have been with the other party at the moment when the other party suddenly patted him on the shoulder. Turned over.
The master withdrew his hand, his fish-like eyes were somewhat satisfied, but he didn't mean to answer Ye He's words.
It was Shen's mother who answered instead of the master. After hearing what the master said, her mood immediately improved a lot. Wen Sheng and Ye He explained: "In the country of the master, this gesture means blessing."
Looking at Shen's mother who still had a smile in her eyes, Ye He only felt that fear rose from the bottom of his heart.He didn't care about anything anymore, he quickly found an excuse to go to the bathroom and wanted to leave Mother Shen's side first.
Mother Shen pointed Ye He in the direction of the bathroom, then turned to face the master again.
Ye He walked towards the bathroom, and could faintly hear the master's ambiguous voice, which seemed to be talking to Shen's mother: "I can already touch it..."
"If..., there will be a ceremony, preferably at night."
Although he couldn't hear exactly what the mage said, the uneasiness in Ye He's heart spread like mist.He made up his mind to go to the system after a symbolic visit to the bathroom, take a look at Shen Sinian and leave quickly.
Originally, going to the bathroom was just an excuse, but after walking to the door, Ye He really wanted to go, so he went to the bathroom.
Seeing that there was no one in the bathroom, Ye He secretly pulled up his clothes, revealing the shoulders patted by the master.He originally thought that with the strength of the master just now, his shoulders had already been black and blue, but he did not expect that the exposed skin was still smooth and white, and the pain seemed to be hidden under the flesh.
...... The skin is not even broken, it seems that there is no hope of using this to blackmail the system to get another work-related injury fee.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his shoulder, Ye He silently pulled up his clothes again, thinking about which country would use the action of beating someone as a blessing.
After walking out of the bathroom, he looked at the similar rooms on both sides but couldn't help but fell into confusion, not knowing which side he should go to.
At this moment, Ye He heard a thin female voice: "Young Madam, where are you going?"
young lady?There are other girls here?
Ye He followed the direction where the voice came from, and saw a girl in servant clothes standing not far away, walking towards him: "Where are you going?"
Only then did he realize that the girl called him just now, and the "Young Madam" he heard just now seemed to be just his illusion.
Ye He said with some embarrassment: "I want to go back to the hall."
"You can follow me this way." The maid signaled Ye He to follow her, Ye He quickly thanked and followed the maid.
But he didn't forget the weird address the girl gave just now, he hesitated for a few seconds, he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and said, "Did you just call..."
After Ye He's voice fell, he could clearly feel the maid's nervousness.The maid turned her head and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I was quick to speak just now, and I made a mistake."
Ye He had no intention of embarrassing the maid, and after hearing the other party's explanation, he stopped talking.
Led by the maid, Ye He walked through the winding corridors and finally returned to the hall.
Only this time, Ye He did not walk in the direction of Shen's mother, but walked firmly towards the system.
Seeing Ye He approaching, the system found an excuse to leave Father Shen and Uncle Shen's side.They all found a corner to meet, Ye He looked around first, and after making sure that no one's attention was on their side, he said in a low voice: "It's really strange here, we'd better leave before dark Bar."
Ye He only asked for a day off from the crew, and he will continue filming tomorrow, so he has to go back to the crew at night at the latest.
The system knew from Ye He's expression that something must have happened to the other party, and asked in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "What happened?"
Ye He told the system everything that happened since he stepped into this villa, and especially focused on describing the time the master slapped him, which made the system frown.
The system thought of Father Shen and Uncle Shen calling it over suddenly just now, and it thought that the other party had something to discuss with it, but it didn't expect to just ask Ye He some innocuous recent situation.At that time, the system thought it was very strange, but thinking about it now, Father Shen and Uncle Shen obviously wanted to push it away from Ye He.
And according to Ye He's description, the presence of that master also made the system feel uneasy.Ye He may not be clear, but the system still has some understanding of the customs of this world. It stands to reason that the first seven days are the festivals when relatives come back, and ordinary families will not invite mages to come. After all, it is very likely that they will collide with ghosts.
The more the system thought about it, the more weird it became. It had the same idea as Ye He, thinking that it would be better to leave this villa as soon as possible.So after a while, the system pulled Ye He towards Papa Shen.
The system had long thought of an excuse to leave, and it explained to Shen Sinian's parents that Ye He had only asked the crew for half a day off and would be going back soon.Ye He originally thought that they were going to waste half a day talking with Shen Sinian's parents, but she didn't expect that Shen's mother agreed quickly, and she just asked Ye He to burn incense sticks for Shen Sinian before leaving.
This was not an unacceptable request for Ye He, so he quickly agreed.He took the incense handed over by the servant, bravely walked to the altar, and put the incense in his hand on the incense burner.
Ye He raised his head after setting up the incense sticks, and he met Shen Sinian in the black and white photo.But thinking that he was about to leave soon, Ye He felt that Shen Sinian in front of him was not so scary anymore.
After burning the incense, both Ye He and the system couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had accomplished a great event.And according to the agreement with the Shen family, they can also leave the Shen family.
Just when Ye He was planning to have something to eat in the evening, he suddenly heard the sound of splashing water coming from outside the house, and thinking of the gloomy weather when he entered the door, Ye He's heart suddenly filled with an ominous premonition.
outside is not.......
Mother Shen stood by the window, turned her head to look at System and Ye He who were about to walk to the door, and said softly, "It's raining outside."
Her voice was neither slow nor urgent, as if everything was under control.
Ye He's heart skipped a beat, his ominous premonition came true, he quickly walked to the window to look at the situation outside, praying in his heart that the rain would be less.
However, the sky did not go his way.
It was raining heavily outside the house, mixed with lightning and thunder, even Ye He could feel the force of the rain as if it was going to drown the whole world while standing in the house.
There is no bus station here, and there is no taxi, not even a taxi app, so they can only rely on the Shen family's car to pick them up.However, it was raining heavily now, and they couldn't leave even with the Shen family's car.
Shen's mother's voice rang in his ears: "It's too unsafe to go now, you can just stay here for one night. There are still many vacant rooms in the villa, and you can still have dinner here."
"As for the crew, you don't have to worry. I will send someone to call and ask for leave for you. I will send someone to send you away tomorrow morning. It will not delay Xiaoye's filming."
She said everything in detail, as if she had already considered everything for Ye He. If Ye He and the system refused again, it would seem a little disrespectful.
Ye He subconsciously resisted living here, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he also knew that what Shen's mother said was right, and it was too dangerous to insist on returning to the set in this weather.
He didn't expect that he was in a hurry, and he still couldn't return to the set before the rain.
Looking at the window, the system obviously realized this too. It sighed helplessly in its heart, then turned to look at Mother Shen: "Then I will trouble you."
After Shen's mother said "No trouble", she dragged her black skirt and told the servants to prepare the room for the system and Ye He.
Although he was sure that he wanted to live in Shen's house, Ye He didn't want to stay in the lobby any longer. The sight of other members of Shen's family looking at him from time to time always made him feel uneasy, so after the servant tidied up the room, Ye He went Pulled the system and went to the arranged room upstairs.
There is only one wall between Ye He and the system's room, but because he hasn't had dinner yet, the system stays in Ye He's room first.
Looking at the rain curtain outside the window, Ye He sighed leisurely: "How could it be such a coincidence?"
The system also nodded in agreement.
Now that I think about it, when Shen Sinian's parents agreed to him to leave so happily, could it be that they expected it to rain from the very beginning?
Although he knew that this idea was groundless, Ye He couldn't help but guess it.
But luckily it was only for one night, Ye He clasped his hands together, praying that the rain would stop tomorrow morning, so that he would not be allowed to stay another night.
The system looked at Ye He's devoutly praying face, and the worry hidden in his heart was instantly replaced by amused.
When Ye He heard the system's words, he opened his eyes and looked at the other party in dissatisfaction: "Come and pray with me, if it wasn't for the heavy rain, I wouldn't be able to stay here for a second."
The system is stern: [It is forbidden to engage in these feudal superstitions. 】
But in fact, when he said this, the system was very guilty.The strangeness of the Shen family made it think of the evil spirit that the old man said was haunting Ye He. If it was really Shen Sinian, the system could only be thankful that the talisman water was fed to Ye He before, and the validity period of the talisman paper was not yet valid. If he didn't arrive, the evil spirit couldn't get close to Ye He's body.
Although he knew it was only for one night and there would be no major problems, the system still couldn't help worrying about Ye He like his old father, and couldn't help telling him: [If someone knocks at night, don't open the door. 】
[The window is closed tightly. 】
[Something is calling me. 】
Ye He glanced at the system strangely: "You are also very strange today, why are you so kind?"
system:【........】
What kind of impression did it have in Ye He's mind before? !
After a while, it was time for dinner.Dinner was eaten in another room on the first floor. Although Ye He felt a little restrained when he sat and ate with the Shen family at first, after the food was served, Ye He couldn't help but throw off his arms and eat.
The Shen family rarely moved their chopsticks, and the system felt that compared to before, the Shen family seemed nervous at night.
But the master and his apprentice were nowhere to be seen.
Ye He was the only person at this table who had a good meal.
After dinner, Ye He saw that the rest of the Shen family had stood up, so he also prepared to get up and leave the table with the system.It's just that he didn't expect to be stopped by Shen's mother as soon as he stood up.
Shen's mother showed a distressed look: "Xiaoye, Auntie has a favor, I hope you can help."
Normally, it would be hard to refuse a beauty to frown, but in this weird Shen family, Ye He didn't agree.After realizing that the system had also looked over, he felt a little more secure, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"As you know, today is the first seven days of Si Nian. He committed suicide. According to the customs here, he should do a ritual ceremony." Shen's mother lowered her eyes, as if she was about to cry in the next second: "Although I know that ritual rituals In fact, it is an illusory thing, but Sinian is our only child..."
"But the master said that he needs help from someone who has no blood relationship but is close to him..."
Shen Sinian's father stood up at some point and supported Shen's mother who seemed to be heartbroken.
If Shen's mother ordered Ye He with a strong attitude, Ye He felt that he would definitely refuse, but now he seemed to be about to cry when he saw the other party, but Ye He couldn't say a word.
He suddenly thought of the previous conversation between the master and Shen's mother, and it turned out that what the other party said was referring to such a thing.
Hearing what Shen's mother said, Ye He's expression was still hesitant, after all, the previous master had left a bad impression on him, who knows if that master would do other things to him when he was doing things.
And what the master asked was to have a good relationship with Shen Sinian, but he broke up with Shen Sinian...
He glanced at the system, and the system frowned, obviously thinking about something, and did not respond to Ye He.
Ye He looked at Shen's father and mother in front of him, gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth: "Uncle and aunt, in fact, Shen Sinian and I broke up a long time ago..."
Unexpectedly, Shen's mother didn't show any surprise when she heard Ye He's words: "We already knew about it from the police."
It was only then that Ye He remembered that when he was interrogated by the police before, he had indeed told the police about his relationship with Shen Sinian according to what the system taught him.
It's just that Shen Sinian's parents clearly knew that they had broken up, but they still did it...
Ye He couldn't understand for a while.
Shen's mother smiled bitterly: "You are his only lover."
Ye He now understands the reason why Shen's father and Shen's mother did this. Seeing Shen Sinian's appearance, it is obvious that he will not be short of a partner, but he did not expect to have only dated him.
He turned out to be Shen Sinian's first love.
Shen Sinian's manager is also not here, excluding his parents and relatives, according to the thinking of Shen's parents, he is indeed a person who has no blood relationship with Shen Sinian but is close.
Now even Ye He couldn't think of an excuse to refuse. He wanted to ask the system for help, but found that the system nodded, which meant that he agreed.
The system glanced at Ye He, and then casually glanced at the door.It was only then that Ye He noticed a few tall and burly bodyguards standing at the door. Obviously, even if Ye He didn't agree, the Shen family had plenty of ways to get him to agree.
Ye He: "..."
He didn't expect that this wave would be a salute before the gun, and he couldn't help but fell into silence.
The Shen family's parents also took Ye He's silence as acquiescence, and Shen's mother immediately burst into tears, took Ye He's hand and led him to the direction of the hall, while Shen's father followed behind them.
The bodyguard at the door also left the moment Shen's mother took Ye He's hand, which made him understand that maybe agreeing was not a good choice, but it was the only choice now.
The lights in the hall have been turned off, only the candles in front of the spiritual altar are illuminated.The master sat cross-legged and said something in his mouth.After bringing Ye He back, Shen's father and Shen's mother also left, and the system didn't know where they went.
For a while, only the master, his apprentices and Ye He were left in the mourning hall.The master raised his eyelids, asked his apprentice to take down Shen Sinian's tablet, and handed it to Ye He.
Ye He didn't know what the master was going to do, he looked at the tablet in the apprentice's hand in confusion: "This..."
The apprentice suddenly took out a small knife and motioned Ye He to extend his hand.Just when Ye He wanted to retreat subconsciously, the uncomfortable voice of the master sounded next to his ears: "I need to take a drop of your blood and put it on this tablet."
Ye He stretched out his hand tremblingly, and his apprentice slashed his fingertip, the blood dripped on the tablet, and quickly dissolved into nothingness.
The apprentice turned the tablet over, and when he saw the back of the tablet, Ye He was shocked—the back of the tablet was not blank, but engraved with his name, and there was even his birth date on it.
Just when Ye He wanted to take a closer look, the apprentice had already left with the memorial tablet, and the wound the apprentice had cut was shallow, and now it no longer bleeds.
The master also spoke to Ye He and issued an order to evict the guest: "You can leave now."
Ye He didn't expect that he could leave now. He glanced at the tablet, but finally gave up taking it out to check the contents on the back because he was timid, and walked upstairs gropingly.
After walking upstairs, Ye He remembered that the system had gone somewhere.He first went to the system room and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
The system does not need to sleep, so it can be ruled out that it is because he fell asleep and did not hear his knock on the door.Ye He thought that the last time he saw the system was in the restaurant, but he thought that he would have to go through the lobby again to find the system in the restaurant, so he decided to go to his room and wait for the other party. If the system still didn't come back, he went straight down to find someone .
Thinking of this, Ye He pushed open the door of his room.
There was no light in the room, but there were lighted candles, which seemed to be lit by a servant.
Ye He fumbled and pressed the light control button on the wall, but there was no response.Thinking that there was still electricity when eating in the restaurant just now, Ye He guessed that the light in the room was broken.
If it wasn't for the locked door of the system's room, Ye He really wanted to turn around and wait in the other party's room.
The difference from before was that the room seemed to be lit with aromatherapy, and it smelled quite good. Ye He followed the aroma and looked for it, wanting to see the brand of aromatherapy.Unexpectedly, when he looked for it, he found that the lighting candle did not have any brand name on it.
Ye He had no choice but to give up the idea of looking for the brand name, and prepared to draw the curtain instead.
A flash of lightning flashed outside the window, illuminating the two figures reflected on the glass.
Wait, two ways?
Ye He watched his own figure on the glass being enveloped by another taller figure, and realized belatedly that there was one more person in the room.
...... However, Ye He didn't hear any footsteps.
Ye He first suspected that the person behind him was the system, but soon he denied himself—there was not such a big height difference between him and the system.
He tightened his hand on the curtain, and suddenly turned his head to look behind him.
The man's eyebrows and eyes were exquisite and sharp, and the tails of his eyes were slightly raised. He looked handsome and extraordinary, but his thin lips were bloodless. Although they were slightly curved up, they showed a bit of violence for no reason.
However, the moment he saw that person's appearance, Ye He felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, his body trembled involuntarily, and his expression showed a pitiful and helpless look.
The driver in the front seat was the first to get out of the car and bent down to help Shen Sinian's uncle open the door.After Shen Sinian's uncle got out of the car, he went straight to the door of the car where Ye He was, and opened the door for him.
This made Ye He a little flattered, and quickly thanked him.
The Shen family's main house was built in the suburbs. Ye He got out of the car and looked around. Except for the villa standing not far away, there were no other people. It can be said that this place is extremely desolate.
The system also noticed this, and completely extinguished the idea of taking Ye He and running directly.It didn't want Shen Sinian's uncle to see his abnormality, so it forcibly suppressed the strange look that was about to appear on his face, and pretended to be calm and asked Ye He to get off the car together.
family?What exactly does it mean?
The system can't figure it out, the only thing it can be sure of now is that it seems that Shen Sinian's uncle has no intention of breaking up with them yet, so they are still safe now.
After weighing the pros and cons, the system decided to wait and see what happened. After all, it and Ye He had already arrived at the Shen family's territory, and if they annoyed the other party, they didn't know what would happen.
The originally clear sky suddenly turned gloomy, with dark clouds covering the sun, it looked like it was going to rain, but Ye He felt that the weather was as heavy as his own heart.
Needless to say, the house is full of Shen family members.Although in the car, Shen Sinian's uncle didn't show any reaction of blaming him for Shen Sinian's death, but the rest of the Shen family might think so.
Thinking of this, Ye He's heartstrings suddenly tensed, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
After the system also got off the car, Shen Sinian's uncle led a group of people towards the villa: "Go this way, Si Nian is in the house."
In....in the house?This statement is so strange.
Although he knew that Uncle Shen Sinian meant that Shen Sinian's coffin was in the villa, Ye He couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine when he heard what the other party said suddenly, and felt a little extra when he looked at the villa in front of him. spooky.
And from Uncle Shen's intimate word "Si Nian", it doesn't sound like he has a bad relationship with Shen Sinian, so why did he smile just now?
He used to think that Shen Sinian and Uncle Shen were plastic uncles and nephews, but now he is not so sure.
The water of the wealthy family is too deep, Ye He felt that he could not grasp it.
Hearing Uncle Shen's words, the system's expression was not good either.
It deliberately pulled Ye He, wanting Ye He to get closer to it, so that it could remind him.But I didn't expect that as soon as the system's hand was on Ye He's arm, Uncle Shen suddenly turned his head and said meaningfully to the system: "I noticed it in the car before, but I'm not ashamed to say it. You are Mr. Ye's manager." Right? Some behaviors should be paid attention to."
Pay attention to what?
Ye He was confused by what he heard, and looked at the system subconsciously, and asked in a low voice at a volume that only one of them could hear: "What does he mean?"
The system put down its hand, and its face was a little ugly: [He hopes that we can keep a distance between the two of us. 】
Ye He was even more confused: "Why keep a distance? Aren't we both men?"
Or is this Uncle Shen despising brotherhood?
System: 【......Maybe because he doesn't know that I'm not human. 】
Its attention was always on Uncle Shen in front of it.Seeing that the system withdrew its hand, Uncle Shen didn't say much, just turned around and continued walking.
Looking at his back, the system suddenly asked tentatively: [Has the date of Mr. Shen's funeral been set?I don't know if we can come to participate at that time. 】
Ye He didn't expect the system to ask such a sensitive question so bluntly, and his heart suddenly felt sweaty for the system.However, he was really curious about this question, so he pricked up his ears to hear Uncle Shen's answer. After all, there is no news about the date of Shen Sinian's funeral on Weibo.
Who would have thought that Uncle Shen acted as if he hadn't heard it, and didn't intend to answer the question, nor was he offended by the system's question as Ye He thought, and his expression was flat from the beginning to the end.
The door of the villa was wide open, and there were two servants in black clothes standing at the door. Seeing the three people coming, they all saluted respectfully.
Uncle Shen nodded slightly as a response, and then walked directly into the hall with one person.
The hall was very quiet, only the footsteps of a few people.As soon as Ye He stepped into the hall, he smelled a scent of incense, and his eyes couldn't help but follow the direction of the aroma.
The hall of the villa has been arranged to look like a mourning hall. Shen Sinian's photo is placed in the center. Although Shen Sinian's handsome appearance is not damaged under the black and white photo, his indifferent expression reveals a bit of gloom.
And the aroma Ye He smelled just now came from the candlelight on the altar.Besides the candles, there was also a tablet with Shen Sinian's name on the altar.
Under the tablet is a coffin, Ye He took a look and couldn't help but look away. Although he didn't see Shen Sinian falling down at that time, he could still see the tragic situation from the blood on the ground.
The mourning hall was very quiet, except for Ye He System and Uncle Shen, there was no one else.The system was about to ask what was going on, when it heard footsteps not far away.
The system and Ye He looked in the direction of the footsteps at the same time, and suddenly several people came out of the corridor next to them.
Headed by a couple with exquisite looks, Ye He guessed that they should be Shen Sinian's parents. After all, Shen Sinian's facial features seemed to be based on the advantages of the couple.
There are several people behind the couple, most of them are wearing black suits or skirts, but there are also three or four people wearing gray robes, which look out of place in the villa.
What made Ye He feel uncomfortable was that the moment these people stepped out of the room, their eyes fell on him instantly.Especially those dressed in shabby clothes, their eyes were more sharp and careful, almost looking at him from head to toe, as if they were looking for something.
The leading couple was also looking at Ye He, and compared to other people, their eyes were a little more satisfied.
Ye He was uncomfortable being stared at by these gazes, and when he subconsciously wanted to hide from the system, the beautiful woman in the couple walked forward while dragging a long black dress, and said softly, "You are Ye He, right? I am Shen Sinian's mother, she never thought that we would meet in such a scene."
Her voice is as gentle as spring rain, making people involuntarily want to let go of their guards.
If it weren't for the fine lines at the corners of the eyes that revealed her age, a woman would not look like a child as old as Shen Sinian at all.
Ye He didn't expect that he really guessed the other party's identity correctly.
Hearing Shen's mother's words, Ye He's footsteps stopped instantly.He was a little at a loss for women, not to mention that the woman in front of him was a mother who lost her son.
Mother Shen stepped forward, gently grabbed Ye He's wrist with the hand wearing the jade bracelet, her eyes were flushed: "Although Si Nian has mentioned you many times in front of me before, this is the first time we have met."
Ye He's body froze, of course he couldn't shake off Shen's mother's hand, so he could only take a deep breath, let his hand be held by the other party, and said with difficulty: "Auntie, I'm sorry... ...."
He just wanted to say his condolences by the way, but he couldn't help but pause when he saw Shen's mother's expression at this time.Although Shen's mother's eyes are red and her body is still trembling slightly, Ye He somehow feels that Shen's mother's reaction is not sad, but more like...
More like joy.
Ye He even felt that Shen's mother, who was staring at him intently, was trying to suppress the smile that was about to emerge from the corner of her lips, which made him unable to say what he originally wanted to say for a while.
But Ye He didn't want to think the worst about a mother who had just lost her son, so he could only blame it on the fact that he stayed with the system for too long, and his ability to perceive human emotions gradually declined.
What's more, Shen's mother's attitude is far better than what Ye He imagined. He heard the system describe the tough attitude of the Shen family, and thought that Shen's mother would directly regard him as the culprit of Shen Sinian's death, or because he was Shen Sinian's death. Si Nian's homosexual made things difficult for him, which caused Ye He to be very scared all the way here, but now it seems that Shen's mother is a gentle woman.
As if seeing Ye He's nervousness, Shen's mother patted the back of his hand as a reassurance: "Don't worry, Si Nian's father and I are not unreasonable people, we already know from the police that Si Nian committed suicide gone."
"What's more, you and Sinian are so in love, you must be very sad because of this incident."
Hearing Shen's mother's words, Ye He let go of half of his heart, but the other half still felt panic.And from Shen's mother's description, it seemed that she didn't know that he was already Shen Sinian's ex-boyfriend.
Of course, it was impossible for Ye He to tell Shen's mother the truth in such an environment, he could only lower his eyes and look sad.
At this moment, Shen's mother suddenly pulled Ye He's arm, signaling him to follow her forward: "This is your first time here, I will show you to recognize someone."
Recognize...recognize people?
Ye He subconsciously blurted out: "Who do you recognize?"
Shen's mother took his hand and explained in a gentle voice: "The relatives of the Shen family always need to be recognized."
Ye He's heart skipped a beat. According to the Shen family's intention, didn't he just need to take a look?Why do you still need to recognize someone?
And why not let him watch Shen Sinian?
Ye He subconsciously looked at the system, wanting to find a place to discuss with the system about the weirdness of the Shen family, but he did not expect to see the system and Uncle Shen standing with Father Shen, obviously discussing something, it is impossible to help him at this time.
Looking at the thin back of Shen's mother, Ye He couldn't say no to it for a while, so he could only walk a few steps forward along with Shen's mother's strength.
Shen's mother held Ye He's hand and said: "I heard from Si Nian's agent that you didn't live in the previous house. That house should be bigger than the one you live in now. Why don't you continue to live in it?"
Ye He reacted for a few seconds before realizing that the house that Shen's mother mentioned should be the house that Shen Sinian and he rented before. He was not surprised that Shen's mother knew the address of the house he lived in later. Just checked him out.
And the reason why he didn't continue to live there was very simple, of course it was because he broke up with Shen Sinian, and Shen Sinian was still dead.
But of course you can't say this to Shen's mother, Ye He said in a low voice: "I'm afraid of touching the scene."
Shen's mother seemed to be bent: "It's okay to move back in a few days."
This real estate was registered under Shen Sinian's name, and it was regarded as the Shen family's real estate, but now Shen's mother said that Ye He should continue to live in it.
Hearing Mama Shen's words, Ye He's first reaction was not to think that the other party was kind, but to feel that the woman in front of him always had a lingering sense of strangeness.
In other words, the entire Shen family felt a sense of disobedience. If it weren't for Shen Sinian's photo still on the altar, Ye He would have found it hard to believe that the family had just lost their child.
Suddenly there was a soft sound behind him, which was especially obvious in the silent hall.Ye He turned his head to look, only to find that it was the two servants who closed the door.
Although he knew that closing the door was a perfectly normal thing, Ye He still became nervous for no reason.
Shen's mother had already pulled Ye He towards those people. Those relatives were all from the same family. When Ye He thought that they were Shen Sinian's relatives, it was strange for him to address them accordingly.Fortunately, Shen's mother didn't force him to call every relative by name. Seeing that Ye He couldn't say it, she smiled reassuringly and walked towards the next person.
After a while, Ye He walked up to those people in robes.Before, Ye He didn't pay attention to it from a distance, but after getting closer, Ye He realized the strangeness of these people.
Standing at the front is an old man who looks to be in his 90s, but his figure is not half-shouldered.His skin was wrinkled like a walnut, and his eyeballs seemed to be only one-third the size of a normal person due to atrophy, and they protruded outward like fish eyes.
Although Ye He is not a member of the Appearance Association, he has to admit that the eyes of the old man in front of him are very evil.
However, Shen's mother introduced him as a famous master who was specially invited by the Shen family to help Shen Sinian perform rituals, and the people in long robes behind him were the master's apprentices.
Ye He didn't know what Shen's mother brought him to see the master, so he could only smile awkwardly at the master and his apprentices.
Shen's mother has already enthusiastically introduced: "In addition to Buddhist rituals, this master also has extremely high attainments in divination, such as marriage test..."
Ye He had a look of lack of interest. If the system wasn't around, he would definitely let the system and Shen's mother talk about the dangers of feudal superstition.
Mother Shen: "There is still a future..."
Ye He's eyes lit up suddenly, he leaned close to Shen's mother, and asked in a low voice, "Is it spirit?"
What feudal superstition, this is clearly the guiding light of life!
Before Shen's mother could respond, the master's fish-like eyes stared at Ye He for a few seconds, then suddenly stretched out his skinny hand like lightning, and patted Ye He's shoulder with a dry voice as if Grinded by dead bark: "Here."
Although the master is very old, his strength is not small.Ye He only felt that his shoulder was hit hard with a hammer, half of his body was a little numb, his body trembled violently, and it took a few seconds before he raised his other arm to touch the place that was photographed .
Ye He: "What... what is here?"
He couldn't help asking while rubbing his shoulders, and instantly forgot that he was still interested in measuring his stardom just now.
If it hadn't been for the fact that the person in front of him was already over 90 years old, and he was still a master invited by the Shen family, and most importantly, there were a few tall and burly apprentices behind him, Ye He would have been with the other party at the moment when the other party suddenly patted him on the shoulder. Turned over.
The master withdrew his hand, his fish-like eyes were somewhat satisfied, but he didn't mean to answer Ye He's words.
It was Shen's mother who answered instead of the master. After hearing what the master said, her mood immediately improved a lot. Wen Sheng and Ye He explained: "In the country of the master, this gesture means blessing."
Looking at Shen's mother who still had a smile in her eyes, Ye He only felt that fear rose from the bottom of his heart.He didn't care about anything anymore, he quickly found an excuse to go to the bathroom and wanted to leave Mother Shen's side first.
Mother Shen pointed Ye He in the direction of the bathroom, then turned to face the master again.
Ye He walked towards the bathroom, and could faintly hear the master's ambiguous voice, which seemed to be talking to Shen's mother: "I can already touch it..."
"If..., there will be a ceremony, preferably at night."
Although he couldn't hear exactly what the mage said, the uneasiness in Ye He's heart spread like mist.He made up his mind to go to the system after a symbolic visit to the bathroom, take a look at Shen Sinian and leave quickly.
Originally, going to the bathroom was just an excuse, but after walking to the door, Ye He really wanted to go, so he went to the bathroom.
Seeing that there was no one in the bathroom, Ye He secretly pulled up his clothes, revealing the shoulders patted by the master.He originally thought that with the strength of the master just now, his shoulders had already been black and blue, but he did not expect that the exposed skin was still smooth and white, and the pain seemed to be hidden under the flesh.
...... The skin is not even broken, it seems that there is no hope of using this to blackmail the system to get another work-related injury fee.
Seeing that there was nothing wrong with his shoulder, Ye He silently pulled up his clothes again, thinking about which country would use the action of beating someone as a blessing.
After walking out of the bathroom, he looked at the similar rooms on both sides but couldn't help but fell into confusion, not knowing which side he should go to.
At this moment, Ye He heard a thin female voice: "Young Madam, where are you going?"
young lady?There are other girls here?
Ye He followed the direction where the voice came from, and saw a girl in servant clothes standing not far away, walking towards him: "Where are you going?"
Only then did he realize that the girl called him just now, and the "Young Madam" he heard just now seemed to be just his illusion.
Ye He said with some embarrassment: "I want to go back to the hall."
"You can follow me this way." The maid signaled Ye He to follow her, Ye He quickly thanked and followed the maid.
But he didn't forget the weird address the girl gave just now, he hesitated for a few seconds, he still couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart and said, "Did you just call..."
After Ye He's voice fell, he could clearly feel the maid's nervousness.The maid turned her head and said in a low voice, "Sorry, I was quick to speak just now, and I made a mistake."
Ye He had no intention of embarrassing the maid, and after hearing the other party's explanation, he stopped talking.
Led by the maid, Ye He walked through the winding corridors and finally returned to the hall.
Only this time, Ye He did not walk in the direction of Shen's mother, but walked firmly towards the system.
Seeing Ye He approaching, the system found an excuse to leave Father Shen and Uncle Shen's side.They all found a corner to meet, Ye He looked around first, and after making sure that no one's attention was on their side, he said in a low voice: "It's really strange here, we'd better leave before dark Bar."
Ye He only asked for a day off from the crew, and he will continue filming tomorrow, so he has to go back to the crew at night at the latest.
The system knew from Ye He's expression that something must have happened to the other party, and asked in a volume that only the two of them could hear: "What happened?"
Ye He told the system everything that happened since he stepped into this villa, and especially focused on describing the time the master slapped him, which made the system frown.
The system thought of Father Shen and Uncle Shen calling it over suddenly just now, and it thought that the other party had something to discuss with it, but it didn't expect to just ask Ye He some innocuous recent situation.At that time, the system thought it was very strange, but thinking about it now, Father Shen and Uncle Shen obviously wanted to push it away from Ye He.
And according to Ye He's description, the presence of that master also made the system feel uneasy.Ye He may not be clear, but the system still has some understanding of the customs of this world. It stands to reason that the first seven days are the festivals when relatives come back, and ordinary families will not invite mages to come. After all, it is very likely that they will collide with ghosts.
The more the system thought about it, the more weird it became. It had the same idea as Ye He, thinking that it would be better to leave this villa as soon as possible.So after a while, the system pulled Ye He towards Papa Shen.
The system had long thought of an excuse to leave, and it explained to Shen Sinian's parents that Ye He had only asked the crew for half a day off and would be going back soon.Ye He originally thought that they were going to waste half a day talking with Shen Sinian's parents, but she didn't expect that Shen's mother agreed quickly, and she just asked Ye He to burn incense sticks for Shen Sinian before leaving.
This was not an unacceptable request for Ye He, so he quickly agreed.He took the incense handed over by the servant, bravely walked to the altar, and put the incense in his hand on the incense burner.
Ye He raised his head after setting up the incense sticks, and he met Shen Sinian in the black and white photo.But thinking that he was about to leave soon, Ye He felt that Shen Sinian in front of him was not so scary anymore.
After burning the incense, both Ye He and the system couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had accomplished a great event.And according to the agreement with the Shen family, they can also leave the Shen family.
Just when Ye He was planning to have something to eat in the evening, he suddenly heard the sound of splashing water coming from outside the house, and thinking of the gloomy weather when he entered the door, Ye He's heart suddenly filled with an ominous premonition.
outside is not.......
Mother Shen stood by the window, turned her head to look at System and Ye He who were about to walk to the door, and said softly, "It's raining outside."
Her voice was neither slow nor urgent, as if everything was under control.
Ye He's heart skipped a beat, his ominous premonition came true, he quickly walked to the window to look at the situation outside, praying in his heart that the rain would be less.
However, the sky did not go his way.
It was raining heavily outside the house, mixed with lightning and thunder, even Ye He could feel the force of the rain as if it was going to drown the whole world while standing in the house.
There is no bus station here, and there is no taxi, not even a taxi app, so they can only rely on the Shen family's car to pick them up.However, it was raining heavily now, and they couldn't leave even with the Shen family's car.
Shen's mother's voice rang in his ears: "It's too unsafe to go now, you can just stay here for one night. There are still many vacant rooms in the villa, and you can still have dinner here."
"As for the crew, you don't have to worry. I will send someone to call and ask for leave for you. I will send someone to send you away tomorrow morning. It will not delay Xiaoye's filming."
She said everything in detail, as if she had already considered everything for Ye He. If Ye He and the system refused again, it would seem a little disrespectful.
Ye He subconsciously resisted living here, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, but he also knew that what Shen's mother said was right, and it was too dangerous to insist on returning to the set in this weather.
He didn't expect that he was in a hurry, and he still couldn't return to the set before the rain.
Looking at the window, the system obviously realized this too. It sighed helplessly in its heart, then turned to look at Mother Shen: "Then I will trouble you."
After Shen's mother said "No trouble", she dragged her black skirt and told the servants to prepare the room for the system and Ye He.
Although he was sure that he wanted to live in Shen's house, Ye He didn't want to stay in the lobby any longer. The sight of other members of Shen's family looking at him from time to time always made him feel uneasy, so after the servant tidied up the room, Ye He went Pulled the system and went to the arranged room upstairs.
There is only one wall between Ye He and the system's room, but because he hasn't had dinner yet, the system stays in Ye He's room first.
Looking at the rain curtain outside the window, Ye He sighed leisurely: "How could it be such a coincidence?"
The system also nodded in agreement.
Now that I think about it, when Shen Sinian's parents agreed to him to leave so happily, could it be that they expected it to rain from the very beginning?
Although he knew that this idea was groundless, Ye He couldn't help but guess it.
But luckily it was only for one night, Ye He clasped his hands together, praying that the rain would stop tomorrow morning, so that he would not be allowed to stay another night.
The system looked at Ye He's devoutly praying face, and the worry hidden in his heart was instantly replaced by amused.
When Ye He heard the system's words, he opened his eyes and looked at the other party in dissatisfaction: "Come and pray with me, if it wasn't for the heavy rain, I wouldn't be able to stay here for a second."
The system is stern: [It is forbidden to engage in these feudal superstitions. 】
But in fact, when he said this, the system was very guilty.The strangeness of the Shen family made it think of the evil spirit that the old man said was haunting Ye He. If it was really Shen Sinian, the system could only be thankful that the talisman water was fed to Ye He before, and the validity period of the talisman paper was not yet valid. If he didn't arrive, the evil spirit couldn't get close to Ye He's body.
Although he knew it was only for one night and there would be no major problems, the system still couldn't help worrying about Ye He like his old father, and couldn't help telling him: [If someone knocks at night, don't open the door. 】
[The window is closed tightly. 】
[Something is calling me. 】
Ye He glanced at the system strangely: "You are also very strange today, why are you so kind?"
system:【........】
What kind of impression did it have in Ye He's mind before? !
After a while, it was time for dinner.Dinner was eaten in another room on the first floor. Although Ye He felt a little restrained when he sat and ate with the Shen family at first, after the food was served, Ye He couldn't help but throw off his arms and eat.
The Shen family rarely moved their chopsticks, and the system felt that compared to before, the Shen family seemed nervous at night.
But the master and his apprentice were nowhere to be seen.
Ye He was the only person at this table who had a good meal.
After dinner, Ye He saw that the rest of the Shen family had stood up, so he also prepared to get up and leave the table with the system.It's just that he didn't expect to be stopped by Shen's mother as soon as he stood up.
Shen's mother showed a distressed look: "Xiaoye, Auntie has a favor, I hope you can help."
Normally, it would be hard to refuse a beauty to frown, but in this weird Shen family, Ye He didn't agree.After realizing that the system had also looked over, he felt a little more secure, and asked, "What's the matter?"
"As you know, today is the first seven days of Si Nian. He committed suicide. According to the customs here, he should do a ritual ceremony." Shen's mother lowered her eyes, as if she was about to cry in the next second: "Although I know that ritual rituals In fact, it is an illusory thing, but Sinian is our only child..."
"But the master said that he needs help from someone who has no blood relationship but is close to him..."
Shen Sinian's father stood up at some point and supported Shen's mother who seemed to be heartbroken.
If Shen's mother ordered Ye He with a strong attitude, Ye He felt that he would definitely refuse, but now he seemed to be about to cry when he saw the other party, but Ye He couldn't say a word.
He suddenly thought of the previous conversation between the master and Shen's mother, and it turned out that what the other party said was referring to such a thing.
Hearing what Shen's mother said, Ye He's expression was still hesitant, after all, the previous master had left a bad impression on him, who knows if that master would do other things to him when he was doing things.
And what the master asked was to have a good relationship with Shen Sinian, but he broke up with Shen Sinian...
He glanced at the system, and the system frowned, obviously thinking about something, and did not respond to Ye He.
Ye He looked at Shen's father and mother in front of him, gritted his teeth and decided to tell the truth: "Uncle and aunt, in fact, Shen Sinian and I broke up a long time ago..."
Unexpectedly, Shen's mother didn't show any surprise when she heard Ye He's words: "We already knew about it from the police."
It was only then that Ye He remembered that when he was interrogated by the police before, he had indeed told the police about his relationship with Shen Sinian according to what the system taught him.
It's just that Shen Sinian's parents clearly knew that they had broken up, but they still did it...
Ye He couldn't understand for a while.
Shen's mother smiled bitterly: "You are his only lover."
Ye He now understands the reason why Shen's father and Shen's mother did this. Seeing Shen Sinian's appearance, it is obvious that he will not be short of a partner, but he did not expect to have only dated him.
He turned out to be Shen Sinian's first love.
Shen Sinian's manager is also not here, excluding his parents and relatives, according to the thinking of Shen's parents, he is indeed a person who has no blood relationship with Shen Sinian but is close.
Now even Ye He couldn't think of an excuse to refuse. He wanted to ask the system for help, but found that the system nodded, which meant that he agreed.
The system glanced at Ye He, and then casually glanced at the door.It was only then that Ye He noticed a few tall and burly bodyguards standing at the door. Obviously, even if Ye He didn't agree, the Shen family had plenty of ways to get him to agree.
Ye He: "..."
He didn't expect that this wave would be a salute before the gun, and he couldn't help but fell into silence.
The Shen family's parents also took Ye He's silence as acquiescence, and Shen's mother immediately burst into tears, took Ye He's hand and led him to the direction of the hall, while Shen's father followed behind them.
The bodyguard at the door also left the moment Shen's mother took Ye He's hand, which made him understand that maybe agreeing was not a good choice, but it was the only choice now.
The lights in the hall have been turned off, only the candles in front of the spiritual altar are illuminated.The master sat cross-legged and said something in his mouth.After bringing Ye He back, Shen's father and Shen's mother also left, and the system didn't know where they went.
For a while, only the master, his apprentices and Ye He were left in the mourning hall.The master raised his eyelids, asked his apprentice to take down Shen Sinian's tablet, and handed it to Ye He.
Ye He didn't know what the master was going to do, he looked at the tablet in the apprentice's hand in confusion: "This..."
The apprentice suddenly took out a small knife and motioned Ye He to extend his hand.Just when Ye He wanted to retreat subconsciously, the uncomfortable voice of the master sounded next to his ears: "I need to take a drop of your blood and put it on this tablet."
Ye He stretched out his hand tremblingly, and his apprentice slashed his fingertip, the blood dripped on the tablet, and quickly dissolved into nothingness.
The apprentice turned the tablet over, and when he saw the back of the tablet, Ye He was shocked—the back of the tablet was not blank, but engraved with his name, and there was even his birth date on it.
Just when Ye He wanted to take a closer look, the apprentice had already left with the memorial tablet, and the wound the apprentice had cut was shallow, and now it no longer bleeds.
The master also spoke to Ye He and issued an order to evict the guest: "You can leave now."
Ye He didn't expect that he could leave now. He glanced at the tablet, but finally gave up taking it out to check the contents on the back because he was timid, and walked upstairs gropingly.
After walking upstairs, Ye He remembered that the system had gone somewhere.He first went to the system room and knocked on the door, but there was no response.
The system does not need to sleep, so it can be ruled out that it is because he fell asleep and did not hear his knock on the door.Ye He thought that the last time he saw the system was in the restaurant, but he thought that he would have to go through the lobby again to find the system in the restaurant, so he decided to go to his room and wait for the other party. If the system still didn't come back, he went straight down to find someone .
Thinking of this, Ye He pushed open the door of his room.
There was no light in the room, but there were lighted candles, which seemed to be lit by a servant.
Ye He fumbled and pressed the light control button on the wall, but there was no response.Thinking that there was still electricity when eating in the restaurant just now, Ye He guessed that the light in the room was broken.
If it wasn't for the locked door of the system's room, Ye He really wanted to turn around and wait in the other party's room.
The difference from before was that the room seemed to be lit with aromatherapy, and it smelled quite good. Ye He followed the aroma and looked for it, wanting to see the brand of aromatherapy.Unexpectedly, when he looked for it, he found that the lighting candle did not have any brand name on it.
Ye He had no choice but to give up the idea of looking for the brand name, and prepared to draw the curtain instead.
A flash of lightning flashed outside the window, illuminating the two figures reflected on the glass.
Wait, two ways?
Ye He watched his own figure on the glass being enveloped by another taller figure, and realized belatedly that there was one more person in the room.
...... However, Ye He didn't hear any footsteps.
Ye He first suspected that the person behind him was the system, but soon he denied himself—there was not such a big height difference between him and the system.
He tightened his hand on the curtain, and suddenly turned his head to look behind him.
The man's eyebrows and eyes were exquisite and sharp, and the tails of his eyes were slightly raised. He looked handsome and extraordinary, but his thin lips were bloodless. Although they were slightly curved up, they showed a bit of violence for no reason.
However, the moment he saw that person's appearance, Ye He felt as if a basin of cold water had been poured on his head, his body trembled involuntarily, and his expression showed a pitiful and helpless look.
