Modern era, Opposite Riverbank.
Mei Family Old Residence-Southern Branch Troupe.
Seven people pushed open the gate and entered the old residence.
The instant Chen Zhiyuan, Yan Xiao, Dense Forest, Let Me Out, Shen Hai, Zhong Xueran, and Xinxin stepped into [Southern Branch Troupe], the gate behind them slammed shut on its own with a boom.
"That big wooden gate suddenly shutting made me think I'd wandered onto the wrong set." Let Me Out looked around with drooping eyelids, seemingly unconcerned.
"Who are you?"
Suddenly, an elderly woman's voice came from the courtyard of the old residence. Everyone looked toward the sound and saw an old woman dressed in grayish white.
Chen Zhiyuan explained, "We're friends of Mr. Mei Sijun. He should be here shortly."
"I don't think he'll make it..." Let Me Out cut in.
"You, Xu! Do you know how to talk to people? If you don't, keep Don't Speak shut!" Zhong Xueran glared fiercely at him.
"Then I'll sing it next time." Let Me Out looked as though he had come on vacation, showing no sign of tension.
"Wait here." The old woman eyed them suspiciously, then actually took out a cell phone and called the Mei family to confirm.
"All right..."
"Mm... understood..."
She hung up.
"Come in. Old Li said the young master did mention that you'd be staying here for a while." The old woman stared at them, her tone rather unfriendly. "But don't wander around, and don't touch anything inside."
"Pfft..." Let Me Out suddenly burst out laughing. "Hey, did you hear that? Young master! Hahaha!"
Chen Zhiyuan was finding him a little unbearable too. He immediately interrupted him and said to the old woman, "Just arrange somewhere for us to stay. We won't touch anything inside. We'll be staying here for a week.
