Chapter 1357: Sharp‑tongued Arrogant Celebrity & Super‑rich Insecure Wife 33

~7 min read 1,372 words

Yang Ji was taken away to carry out a solo mission; the zombies finally opened the door of the secret room, and the guests could continue exploring the next stage.

As they passed through another long, dark corridor, Moli's dissatisfied noisy voice in the team was more terrifying than the faint ghostly wail coming from the loudspeaker.

The other guests didn't know what to say; Xiang Xiaoyu simply grabbed Moli's hand and forced her to mute.

Pushing open the handle of the fake skull door, the guests finally entered a room somewhat similar to the wedding theme, with lanterns, colorful ribbons, and wedding wine set on the table.

However, the room was very dark, not only lacking any festive atmosphere, but the all‑dark‑red decorations looked eerily frightening for no reason.

The room was empty except for candles constantly dripping wax.

They started searching the room, when suddenly a red silk cloth floated down from the corner of the ceiling, brushing over the face and head of the guest at the front.

"I‑I… this is really scary." Cheng Xi shrank back again, but after searching for a long time he still couldn't see any light in the room.

Shen Shi turned on the strong flashlight again, and instantly a sense of safety like daylight flooded in.

The female ghost hiding in the dark, ready to scare people:???

What the hell is this?! Why is it already daylight?!

She dazedly lay on the beam looking down, blinded by the flashlight in Shen Shi's hand, almost forgetting what the next step of the procedure was.

Jin Chen pressed his earpiece, glanced toward Shen Shi, who tilted his head in confusion: "What's up?"

"Nothing." Jin Chen pretended he hadn't heard anything.

The Director Team that told Jin Chen to turn off his flashlight: "……"

Half a minute later, eight monsters wearing masks crowded into the room; five of them were blocking Jin Chen, and the strong‑locked‑male Jin Chen stood there dazedly.

"Who are you guys!"

Abducting men in broad daylight! His wife is still here!

Taking advantage of the chaos, the remaining three monsters snatched the flashlight from Shen Shi's hand; the monster that got it let out a victorious howl.

All the guests watched as that gang of monsters ran off wildly, leaving not a single clue behind.

"No… no!" Cheng Xi let out a miserable scream, "My sense of safety just vanished with a snap."

He clung tightly to Mu Sen's arm, as if everywhere else besides that was terrifying.

〖Hahahahaha Program Team forcibly changes the atmosphere! 〗

〖Jin Chen was just blocked by five monsters, looking so helpless hahahaha. 〗

〖The Program Team must have been annoyed for a long time by this super‑cheat‑like miracle! 〗

Shen Shi's hand was empty again; he wanted to grab Jin Chen's hand, and just then Jin Chen turned back and took hold of it, muttering, "They're really over the top."

It's just a lack of experience, right!

Finally the light was gone, and the female ghost on the beam could begin her move.

She crawled to the center of the room, randomly picked a lucky gentleman, and the gauzy silk brushed once more over Jin Chen's upper body, neck, and cheeks.

The floating silk veil, carrying a special faint fragrance, drifted past in front of Jin Chen.

It floated over again, and again…

Jin Chen grabbed the silk and waved it away, saying, "If you want to slap me, just say so; stop floating around endlessly."

The female ghost hid behind the screen lowered from the curtains, emitting a clear, bell‑like laugh that sounded especially eerie in the dim, lightless room.

Shen Shi spoke with a teasing tone, jabbing Jin Chen, "She seems to be telling you to come over."

Jin Chen, terrified, hid behind Shen Shi and faced the screen: "No way."

The female ghost preparing to give a clue: "……"

"What the hell!"

Lin Cheng laughed nonstop, "Jin Chen kid, you've got plenty of romantic luck—even the female ghost is into you."

Jin Chen glanced at Youyou with a faint smile, "You're laughing so happily, then you go over."

Lin Cheng quickly waved his hands, "I'm scared, okay? Maybe the female ghost judges people by their looks; if you go over you might still get some clues."

"Right, right." Cheng Xi nodded along.

Jin Chen said coolly and aloofly, "I'm a married man."

The Handsome Man Plan can only be used on my wife!

The female ghost behind the screen waited half a minute for someone to come, then threw out another silk headcover, merely changing her target.

Shen Shi suddenly saw red; the silk headcover blocked his upper body.

He lifted his eyes, about to pull the cover off, when he saw the front lifted up—Jin Chen smiled and slipped inside, and the two of them pressed close under the mandarin‑duck cover, seeing only each other.

In an instant, an ambiguous atmosphere spread.

Shen Shi suddenly broke into a light smile, moved closer, and planted a kiss on Jin Chen.

Jin Chen raised an eyebrow, "Shen Shi, you're trying to seduce me again on the show."

"I didn't."

Shen Shi shook his head in denial, took another half step forward, and lightly kissed the side of Jin Chen's lips, his eyes shining.

"You did." Jin Chen touched his lips, decided to return the gesture, just as he leaned in— the female ghost, unable to bear it any longer, flung open the cover.

She glared at the lovebirds with her terrifying made‑up eyes.

"I was about to shove the clue right in your faces! Won't you even look under the headcover? Who allowed you to kiss in here!"

"Oh——"

The cover was flung open unexpectedly; they were still holding their embrace, ready to kiss, and instantly provoked an uproar from all the guests in the room.

〖Jin Chen really isn't wasting any time! 〗

〖Ultimate time‑control monster! Even lifting the cover, he has to kiss his wife first. 〗

〖Shen Shi is blushing and looks so pretty! That skinny wife of Shen Shi is about to dive into Jin Chen's arms! 〗

The female ghost just wants to scold people.

These guests completely disregarded the ghosts!

The female ghost continued to carry out the procedure diligently.

She lightly touched her rotting half-face, clutching her veil as she sobbed, her light steps seeming to float in the room.

"I can't fathom why my lover would leave… …Do any of you warriors know?"

Jin Chen embraced the somewhat embarrassed Shen Shi, hearing the words, he earnestly advised: "Don't dwell on what you can't figure out."

Finally someone responded, the female ghost was moved, wiping her eyes, "What do the warriors mean…?"

Jin Chen: "In a couple days you won't remember it."

Female ghost: "……"

Dealing with uncooperative guests really gives the ghost a headache.

The female ghost decisively switched to another person to continue scaring.

"Ahhhhh, don't come over!" Cheng Xi's emotional value was fully given; he turned his back and presented his butt to the female ghost, yet he remained scared.

The female ghost sighed satisfiedly, then continued: "Since you warriors have come here, you might help me find my departing lover; perhaps beneath the well in the front courtyard there will be clues to his departure."

"That is the secret base where I and my lover plighted our troth; besides me, no other ghost knows."

Mu Sen unexpectedly interjected: "Your lover's preference is quite strange."

Who would, for no reason, go to a well to date?

The seven guests shifted location again, passing through the bridal chamber door to reach the courtyard.

Lin Cheng picked up the task card placed beside the well.

"Thrilling Adventure: Please have each couple send one person down the well to retrieve the token representing each group's heart-throb, and successfully return to the well's mouth; the couple that gets it wrong or takes the longest will receive the ghosts' punishment."

"Ah……"

Cheng Xi drew out his tone, very dissatisfied, tightly clinging to Mu Sen and refusing to let go: "If you leave, who else will still treat me like a child?"

Mu Sen: "Then you go down?"

Cheng Xi immediately let go: "Kids also grow up."

Would rather die than go down the well!
