The disciple of Yue Lao

Chapter 167: Two beauties, you are so brave!
Luo Fan's gaze was like a "lie detector". When it met Xia Yu's sight, Xia Yu involuntarily stepped back.

"You're playing such a cruel trick on me and Xie Shiyi..."

Luo Fan approached Xia Yu step by step until she retreated to the wall of the cave with no way to retreat. He then slowly said: "...Can I understand this as 'you are jealous'?"

After the "cell phone ringtone" and "Luo Ke's betrayal", Xia Yu had no way to deny it.

"Be loyal to the person who trusts you." Xia Yu explained, while also denying the statement that "she is jealous."

"Entrusted by someone?" Luo Fan asked with a smile.

"Correct."

Having said that, Xia Yu no longer concealed it and directly told Luo Fan about helping the girl "pretend to be a ghost".

……

Qu Si Ning and Shang Jingyu had already met up with Meng Xiaodong and Zhou Hai. Xia Yu, Luo Fan, Luo Ke and Xie Shiyi left the secret room maze together.

……

Haunted house lobby, front desk ticket office.

The boss and several staff members reviewed the surveillance footage and discovered the part where "Luo Ke took selfies with the fake ghosts."

Xia Yu has cast a spell to remove the "bewitching spell" on Luo Ke. After Luo Ke returned to normal, he was wondering why he didn't see any "ghosts"!

Xie Shiyi has woken up, but she is still following Luo Fan closely, as if she is worried that he will run away.

The boss recognized Xia Yu and Luo Ke who had appeared in the surveillance video. He walked towards them, gave them a thumbs up and said, "You two beauties are really brave!"

"Especially this beauty..." the boss said, and pointed at Luo Ke who was next to Xia Yu.

"Ah? What?" Luo Ke didn't understand.

Xia Yu and Luo Fan didn't say anything, but Xie Shiyi looked at the boss in surprise and replied, "Boss, her courage is about the same as mine, she can't stand being scared."

"Yes, yes, yes! I am most afraid of ghosts!" Luo Ke quickly agreed.

After seeing Xie Shiyi "fainted from fright" in the maze, she became nervous, fearing that she would also encounter those scary ghosts in the legend.

Fortunately, she didn't encounter any "ghost" from the time she went in to the time she came out.

She also found this very strange.

"The beauty is joking!"

As the boss spoke, he pointed to the surveillance video on his front desk and laughed again, "You took photos and chatted with our staff who played the 'ghosts' in the maze. You didn't look 'scary' at all!"

"No way?" Xie Shiyi looked at Luo Ke in surprise and asked, "Really?"

Luo Ke glanced at the surveillance video on the table from a distance, then looked at Xia Yu next to her, and remembered that "she was pulling those kids to take pictures in the maze."

But, they are all very cute children!

Aren’t they all tourists visiting a haunted house?
How could it be... a ghost?

"what!!"

Xie Shiyi ran over and took a peek at the surveillance video on the table. She was so scared that she screamed and trembled, "It's actually... It's actually true!"

"Really?..." Luo Ke walked towards the surveillance video in disbelief. Even though she was scared, she wanted to see it with her own eyes.

"Xiao Ke." Xia Yu reached out and pulled Luo Ke, kindly reminding her, "Don't look at it."

"Let's go!" Luo Fan also said.

The boss looked at Luo Ke in confusion. She was obviously having so much fun that made his staff members "lose face", so why would she say she didn't know now?

It’s impossible for a person to “lose his memory instantly”, right?

As the saying goes, "Curiosity kills the cat." Luo Ke was too curious, and despite Xia Yu's reminder, he mustered up the courage to watch the surveillance video.

It would have been fine if he hadn't looked. But when he did, Luo Ke was so frightened that his whole body was shaking and he couldn't even stand steadily.

"Xiao Ke, how come I never realized you were so brave? When you were studying abroad, your classmates asked you to watch a horror movie together, and you were scared just by hearing the name of the movie."

Whenever Xie Shiyi thought of the "female ghost" she met in the maze, she would still feel creepy. Unexpectedly, Luo Ke was not afraid at all and even dared to take photos with those "ghosts". It was incredible!
Luo Ke was so frightened that she couldn't speak for a long time. Whenever she thought of the scene of "she pulling them to take a photo", she felt that she had "escaped death by a hair's breadth".

correct……

photo……!
"elder brother……"

Luo Ke called her brother in panic.

Luo Fan knew that she was frightened, so he walked over quickly, held her in his arms, and comforted her, "It's okay, it's all over."

Xie Shiyi saw it all and was jealous. She was so scared today, but Luo Fan had never taken the initiative to hug her.

"Brother..." Luo Ke called Luo Fan while taking out her cell phone with shaking hands. She then handed it to Luo Fan with trembling hands and said hurriedly: "You...please help me delete all the photos I just took...with the 'ghost'! Delete them all, don't leave any!"

"Okay!" Luo Fan agreed.

After taking the phone, Luo Fan began to delete the photos while slowly admiring them. If he thought they were good, he would secretly forward them to his WeChat.

Xie Shiyi saw Luo Ke sweating profusely, so she walked over to wipe her sweat with a tissue and asked her in confusion, "Xiao Ke, you dared to take pictures with them, why are you so nervous when you see the pictures now?"

"Yes! When you met them in the maze, you were not afraid at all!" said the boss.

Luo Ke herself didn't understand. She saw a group of children at that time. Suddenly, they turned into a group of... "ghosts"?

Is this how I should explain it to Xie Shiyi and the boss?

"sister in law!"

Luo Ke suddenly ran towards Xia Yu, grabbed her arm and asked, "You were there at the time, sister-in-law. Did you see... them?"

Xia Yu knew what Luo Ke wanted to ask, but she couldn't tell her that "she cast a spell on her", so she could only reply: "Yes!"

"How can it be……"

Luo Ke felt very nervous. She didn’t know why she was the only one who mistook those “ghosts” for a group of children.

Even if she told this kind of thing, no one would believe her, right?

"Maybe...it was too dark inside and I couldn't see them clearly..." Luo Ke replied somewhat embarrassedly.

"All right."

Luo Fan deleted all the photos of Luo Ke and the "ghost" in her phone and returned the phone to her.

Xia Yu turned on her phone again and found that she had received more than a dozen text messages from Qu Si Ning and Meng Xiao Dong. They had been waiting in the milk tea shop near the haunted house for a long time.

"Let's go!" Xia Yu said to Luo Ke and pulled her out.

"Oh……"

As Luo Ke followed Xia Yu outside, she looked back at her brother and thought: Didn't my brother chase his sister-in-law in the secret room maze just now? Didn't they...still not reach an agreement?
"Boss, we're leaving first!" Luo Fan said with a smile.

The boss nodded and said, "Take care, everyone! Welcome to come again next time!"

"Okay." Luo Fan replied.

……

After leaving the haunted house, Xie Shiyi still followed Luo Fan, and from time to time she deliberately tried to get close to him.

"In the maze, thank you." Xie Shiyi said to Luo Fan shyly.
