Chapter 248

In that seemingly endless, dimly lit corridor.

There was an enormous swarm of cockroaches...

"I'll go buy some water so Miss Han Yu and the young master can get some rest."

Yao Shi shook her heavy head and stood up.

The memory of that scene made her feel extremely nauseous.

The creature she hates most is the cockroach.

The cockroaches we just encountered numbered in the thousands.

What she found most unacceptable was that the cockroach, which claimed to be Horror Duke, could actually speak human language.

Moreover, he was a well-mannered gentleman who knew the etiquette of the nobility.

"Am I crazy, or is the world crazy?"

After giving a few cold laughs, Yao Shi stopped dwelling on what had happened in the haunted house earlier.

It's possible that some special effects or tricks were used in that haunted house.

How could a cockroach possibly possess human emotions and speak like a human?

Utterly ridiculous...

Yao Shi said nothing more and left the place.

Go buy some drinks for the young master to quench his thirst.

"But..."

Yao Shi recalled Han Yu's expression when they fled together earlier.

So, the eldest daughter of the Han Family also dislikes cockroaches, just like her...?

"Miss Shi Yaoshi looks very upset."

Su Qian watched Yao Shi's departing figure.

This was the first time she had ever seen Yao Shi show a fearful expression.

Even that cold and aloof maid has things she's afraid of.

"Well... I didn't expect her to turn out like that..."

Milutin scratched the back of his head awkwardly.

She was curious about what had happened to Yao Shi and the others inside.

"Han Yu, are you alright?"

Ning Shuang looked at Han Yu, who was trembling all over and had a pale face.

Although I know I shouldn't laugh at the other person at a time like this.

But seeing this cunning and treacherous woman with such an expression was truly unexpected for her.

So Han Yu was also afraid of places like this, just like her...?

"Milutin, did you encounter a cockroach in the hallway that claimed to be Horror Duke?"

Wu Liang, who hadn't spoken until now, suddenly spoke.

Why are people like Milutin able to remain so calm after encountering that kind of thing?

Could it be that we were all too cowardly?

"Horror Duke? What's that?"

Milutin was taken aback; she didn't understand what the young master was talking about.

"A corridor? We were passing through a wide-open wasteland."

After regaining her composure, Ning Shuang answered Wu Liang's question in a low voice.

They hadn't seen any corridor before.

It was a very gloomy and terrifying wasteland.

"Really? Then I think I understand what that haunted house is."

Wu Liang revealed an expression that said, "I see."

No wonder he felt the cave entrance and corridor looked familiar.

In other words, the outlet of that cavity wall could lead to any area.

Milutin and the others went to the wasteland; in fact, they went to the corridor.

Good heavens... this is like bringing the Nasrec Great Tomb from Overlord to be a haunted house...

"The developer of this ACG dating game, aren't you going a bit too far?"

Wu Liang sighed heavily and then smiled helplessly.

How come he didn't notice these crossover easter eggs when he was playing the game?

No wonder this game has received such rave reviews from players.

So it was because of these novel and unusual tricks...

"Madam? Are you alright?"

He Jingao ran to the side of the old woman who had fainted on the ground.

Looking at the other person's furrowed brows and the occasional murmurs coming from their mouth.

He Jingao frowned slightly; it seemed that this was indeed heatstroke.

"Grandpa, shouldn't we call the doctor quickly?"

He Xue looked at the old woman lying on the ground and hurriedly took out her phone.

If something happens to someone at such an advanced age, it could be very troublesome.

We need to call the doctor immediately.

"Let me help her up first. I have some water here, let her drink some first."

He Jingao quickly helped the old woman up and helped her lean against a tree.

He twisted open the bottle of mineral water in his hand and brought it to the other person's lips.

"I'll call 12 right now..."

Snap.

Suddenly, a fair, delicate hand reached out from the side and pressed down on He Xue's phone.

And then he hung up on He Xue directly.

"Huh?"

He Xue looked at the beautiful woman beside her, puzzled.

Why did the other person stop her from making the call?

"I'm sorry, my grandma doesn't like going to the hospital."

"If possible, I hope this gentleman can take my grandmother to the infirmary."

"Besides, it's just heatstroke. My grandma just needs to rest for a bit."

Yao Qing held He Xue's small hand and smiled gently.

Without He Xue noticing, Yao Qing slowly moved a few steps to the right.

This revealed the scene he had deliberately concealed.

"I see, then let us take Grandma to..."

He Xue nodded in understanding.

But just as she was about to say something more...

The scene before her made her stop in her tracks.

After seeing the group of people sitting under the awning ahead.

He Xue stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

"Xiaoxue... Wu Liang... and Miss Ning Shuang..."

Chapter 87: The Gathered Crowd

He Xue stood there, somewhat bewildered, staring at the scene before her.

Why are Wu Liang, Xiao Yu, and Miss Ning Shuang here?

Who are the other two beautiful ladies?

He seemed to know Wu Liang very well.

Especially foreign beauties with short red hair and hot figures.

The other person didn't look like a student from the Huihuangxing Academy at all.

Is it someone Wu Liang knows, or a friend of Miss Ning Shuang and the others?

"Oh my, little sister, do you know that group of people over there?"

Yao Qing walked to He Xue's side and bent down slightly.

He leaned close to He Xue's ear and said with a hint of surprise.

However, the slight, seductive smile on her crimson lips made Yao Qing appear quite eerie.

"Those are my... friends..."

He Xue hesitated for a moment before gently biting her lip.

Why are Wu Liang and his group at Amagi Brilliant Park?

And why is Xiao Yu with Miss Ning Shuang and Wu Liang?

Given Xiao Yu's personality, she definitely wouldn't stay in the same place as Miss Ning Shuang.

But the group resting over there was indeed Xiao Yu and her friends...

He Xue couldn't understand what was going on.

She could understand if it were just Wu Liang and Miss Ning Shuang here.

It's perfectly normal for two very good friends to hang out together.

"But why is Xiao Yu here too...?"

He Xue pressed her temples and frowned slightly.

When did the relationship between Miss Ning Shuang and Xiao Yu start to improve?

"Is he your friend? Aren't you going to go and see him?"

Yao Qing squinted and looked at He Xue with a smile.

With gentle persuasion, He Xue's attention was drawn towards Wu Liang.

All the actors have arrived.

Next up is the young master's performance.

Things are getting more and more interesting, and he can't wait any longer.

Will the young master be able to keep all these women firmly in his grasp?

It all depends on the young master's abilities.

"Ah, I, I think I'll just stay out of it."

"Besides, sister, you still need my help, how can I abandon you?"
