I realized that the thought had already taken root in my mind, deep and unshakable.
I thought of Nantian.
In this respect, Nantian and I were astonishingly alike.
Neither of us had ever asked our families what they thought. We had simply chosen the path we believed was best and insisted on bringing them along.
That might not have been the right thing to do.
But when I thought of my parents, already growing old, and my younger sister, still so innocent and lively, I didn't want to disrupt the peace we had now.
I hoped this peace could last forever.
My words seemed to have struck a chord with Qin Shu.
Qin Shu cleared his throat and said, "In that case, could I also stay off camera? There are some things going on with my family too..."
Huanguang gave a cold snort but didn't directly object.
Xu Jiu readily agreed and even said he could go alone.
Huanguang suddenly said, "You have a phone, right? Take a video of all of us."
Xu Jiu looked a little lost. "A group photo? That... doesn't seem very auspicious. We shouldn't jinx ourselves by making random declarations like that."
Huanguang's face turned livid. "What are you thinking? If those two stay off camera, how will you explain the bodies here once we really get out? Do you want to be treated as the sole murder suspect?"
Xu Jiu didn't seem to take it very seriously.
Huanguang had a point.
We knew we'd encountered something supernatural. If someone managed to rescue us, they would probably understand the truth. Other people might not.
It was only natural that Huanguang was worried, since Qin Shu and I had refused to appear on camera.
Neither Qin Shu nor I had any objections.
Xu Jiu still couldn't
