I am in the horror game, scrambling to steal the male lead's halo

When we returned to the B&B, the sycamore tree was covered with fallen leaves, which made a rustling sound when we stepped on them.

At the bar, the proprietress was still drowsy.

The two of them walked in one after the other and headed upstairs.

The proprietress was awakened, looked up at them, then tilted her head and began to doze off again.

When Gu Chaoxi returned to the room, she immediately ran to her backpack. She really wanted to take a comfortable hot bath.

"I'll send you back to Haicheng tonight, what do you think?"

Pei Yan took a bottle of water and drank it. When he turned around, Gu Chaoxi just took out a set of clean clothes from his backpack.

The bra straps had fallen out and were hanging on one side.

The tips of his ears felt a little hot and he immediately turned his head away.

Gu Chaoxi didn't realize this at all, he just nodded and walked towards the bathroom: "Sure."

"You can go back earlier, but can I take a shower first?"

She actually didn't care whether the man agreed or not, and she had already walked in and closed the bathroom door.

Pei Yan stared at his toes for a while and heard the sound of water coming from the bathroom.

The sound insulation effect needs to be improved.

He thought so in his mind, silently took his phone and walked out of the room, leaning against the corridor alone looking at his phone.

Gu Chaoxi had no idea about these things. The hot water rushing over her body really washed away her fatigue and fear from the past few days.

The warm water opens every pore on my body, which is really comfortable.

Cheerful, she hummed a little tune, put on her clothes and combed her hair in front of the mirror.

By the time she came out of the bathroom, half an hour had passed.

"Pei Yan?"

There was no one in the room, so she tried shouting.

The door opened from the outside with a click, and Pei Yan leaned against the door frame and looked at her: "I'm here."

"Why don't we go back early so we can have dinner together?"

She sat on the edge of the bed, changing her shoes, with her head down, concentrating on tying her shoelaces.

Pei Yan went over and picked up his backpack, nodded, glanced at it, and said "hmm" softly, which meant he agreed.

She bent down, picked up her bag with some excitement, and walked briskly to his side.

"Then let's go."

Seeing her walking forward, Pei Yan followed behind.

Perhaps it was the smell of shower gel. When she got closer just now, Pei Yan smelled a very faint scent of jasmine.

Just like her, it feels very comfortable and soft.

As he walked down the stairs, he lowered his eyes slightly, and his gaze unconsciously fell on the waist of the person in front of him.

Gu Chaoxi is now wearing a beige tweed coat, which almost covers her entire body.

But when he held the person in his arms at that time, he remembered that the waist was very thin and soft.

Realizing that his idea was wrong, Pei Yan raised his hand and stroked his forehead.

The proprietress sitting at the bar was browsing on her phone. When she saw them coming downstairs, she stared at them.

"I want to make up for the accommodation fee!"

It was still a hoarse and unpleasant voice.

Pei Yan took his phone and went over to pay. Gu Chaoxi was standing a few steps away.

Her eyes fell on the photo wall behind the bar. She looked at the photos one by one, and suddenly her attention was distracted by one of them.

The photo showed a group of people flying Kongming lanterns in the wilderness. The bright yellow lanterns illuminated the night, and the little people below were cheering.

She opened her mouth, walked over and looked at the proprietress: "Are you still flying Kongming lanterns here?"

"That was a long time ago. Flying sky lanterns was banned a long time ago."

"Well, thank you."

He nodded, and seeing that Pei Yan had paid, he walked out again.

She didn't know why, but she just wanted to ask that question.

"Is there something wrong?" Pei Yan noticed her hesitation.

Shaking his head, Gu Zhaoxi smiled and said, "It's okay. I just asked casually when I saw a photo."

In fact, the photo gave her a very familiar feeling, but she couldn't remember it.

Before getting in the car, she took one last look in the direction of the B&B.

The sycamore tree in front of the door was still shedding leaves, with spots hidden among the leaves, just as it was when they arrived.

This place seems to have remained unchanged for a long time.

Gu Chaoxi opened the car door and sat in, stretching his legs and curling himself up in the seat.

"Pei Yan, can we have hotpot tonight? I'll treat you!"

She really needs a good meal now.

"it is good."

Hearing his agreement, Gu Chaoxi smiled, tilted his head, found a comfortable position for himself and closed his eyes.

The road is long, it is better to have a good sleep.

She slept soundly that night, and even when Pei Yan drove to a hot pot restaurant and stopped, she showed no signs of waking up.

Pei Yan raised his hand and touched her forehead to make sure that she was not fainted from a fever, then he shook her shoulders.

"Gu Chaoxi?"

"Chaoxi? Wake up?"

She slowly opened her eyes and saw Pei Yan looking at her.

"Well, what's wrong?" He rubbed his eyes, still feeling a little drowsy.

Pei Yan glanced at the sky outside which was already darkening, pointed at the colorful street nearby, and laughed in silence.

"We are here, aren't we going to eat hot pot?"

"Huh?" She turned around in surprise and found that she had returned to the city she was familiar with.

Almost immediately, his appetite was awakened by his stomach. His eyes suddenly widened and he turned his head to look at her with shining eyes.

"Yes, let's eat hot pot!"

She got off the car with some excitement, and couldn't help rubbing her hands on her chest.

In the past, whenever she felt tired from work, she liked to go to the hot pot restaurant during the day to have a big meal.

The satisfaction that a full stomach brings her is something that nothing else can give her.

The two walked towards the hot pot restaurant together, and the waiter soon came to greet them.

"Hello, how many people are there?"

"You two, private room."

Pei Yan said this and took out a golden card from his pocket.

The waiter only looked at me for two seconds, then immediately led the way with a smile: "This way, please."

Gu Zhaoxi couldn't help but glance sideways: "You actually have a membership in the hot pot restaurant?"

"Well, this is our family's store, so it's not surprising that I have a membership card."

"Oh... huh?"

She suddenly came to her senses and repeated it uncertainly: "Your store?"

"Yes." Pei Yan seemed to be talking about something very sparse and ordinary, but her eyes were a little wide.

After thinking carefully in her mind for a long time, she gradually linked Pei Yan's name with the name of the Haicheng boss.

Just as he opened his mouth, before he could ask what he wanted to ask, he heard Pei Yan speak again.

"I am his youngest son, so it won't matter if I die suddenly."

Even though he knew what he meant, Gu Chaoxi still felt a little unlucky.

She quickly waved her hands as if she was chasing away a ghost.

"Pei Yan, you must have confidence in yourself!"

How can he think that it doesn't matter if he dies? His family will definitely be very sad!
