nAfter Lu Boyan and Su Jianan left, Mu Sijue and Xu Youning also went back.

nOn the beach, Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun who were bored were the only ones left there.

nShen Yuechuan crossed his hands behind his head and crossed his legs as well. He casually lay on the beach and took a long breath.

nThe beach at night was particularly quiet and the dim light enveloped the sea surface, which changed its usual blue color into something mysterious and deep. The constant sound of the waves colliding on the rock was extremely clear in the night, as music movements performed by a musician.

nShen Yuechuan closed his eyes and was dipped in the leisurely feeling.

nXiao Yunyun crossed her legs and sat about one meter away from Shen Yuechuan. Then she subconsciously turned around to look at Shen Yuechuan—

nHe was the same person as in the daytime. But the casualness and unconventional feeling around him disappeared. Instead, he seemed harmless and cute when lying on the beach cozily. He could have been mistaken for a good promising young man by someone who hadn’t seen him before.

nBut, it was undeniable that Shen Yuechuan was very good-looking in any conditions.

nJust like the moment when the moonlight was dim. Anyone else would look vague and unattractive in that situation.

nBut Shen Yuechuan was different. He had a perfect face, with firm features. The dim moonlight washed over his face and only gave him a mysterious feeling. It did no harm to his handsomeness.

nXiao Yunyun took out her phone photographed it from a chosen angle.

nUm, the photo didn’t need any adjustment. It was automatically beautified.

nBut what if the photo was discovered? Would she be mistaken as a pervert?

nXiao Yunyun thought about it and sent the picture to Shen Yuechuan. Then she could keep the photo candidly!

nHaving received the photo, Shen Yuechuan was a bit surprised. He lifted his eyebrows and glanced at Xiao Yunyun. “You’re not skilled in photographing.”

nXiao Yunyun knew he wouldn’t say anything good. She just curled her lips and smiled, “I think it isn’t good either. But it has nothing to do with the photographer. The model is too ordinary. It’s not worth appreciating at all without being processed and beautified!”

nShen Yuechuan hadn’t thought she would use his words to attack him. He bit his teeth and then replied, “Really? But in my eyes, the model is the only part worth looking in this photo. The photographing skills were terrible!”

nXiao Yunyun laughed out. “If narcissism is a crime, you would be sentenced to be imprisoned for life!”

nShen Yuechuan answered quickly and fluently, “If bad photographing skill is seen as a crime, you would have been beaten to death by now!”

nThey kept on with the word attacks without either of them giving up. It just got more and more vicious. They kept stabbing at one another with words, hoping the other would die of blood exhaustion at the next second.

nThe quietness on the beach was gradually broken, and the sound of waves crashing on the rocks became louder as if they were cheering for them.

nThe war kept on for half an hour. Xiao Yunyun was very thirsty and signed to stop, “Shen Yuechuan, it’s time to go back. We can continue tomorrow.”

nShen Yuechuan inwardly appraised Xiao Yunyun’s eloquence; he couldn’t win even if he wouldn’t lose. So he agreed to the temporary truce and went back to the cabin.

nIt took about half an hour to walk from the seaside to the cabin.

nXiao Yunyun had walked by that road with Shen Yuechuan in the daytime. But at the moment, her back felt a chill, although it was the same way back.

nAfter thinking for a while, Xiao Yunyun understood that it was because of the island’s lighting, which was abundant.

nThe lighting on the island was specially designed; every beam of light could properly add to the quiet and leisurely atmosphere. The luminance was also proper, which could not only let the tourists have some alone time quietly but was also suitable for a group of people to party.

nReasonably speaking, Xiao Yunyun shouldn’t be scared. But the problem was, there were only six people except for the staff on the island. And she and Shen Yuechuan were the only ones outside.

nAt the moment, no matter how delicate the lights were arranged, it would seem terrifying, just like in the movie Mysterious Island.

nXiao Yunyun walked slowly and huddled up by Shen Yuechuan.

nShen Yuechuan soon noticed her strange behavior and asked smilingly, “Are you scared?”

nXiao Yunyun denied stubbornly, “It’s impossible! I’m a doctor, okay? I just feel a little cold!” Then he moved to Shen Yuechuan’s side. “Ah, you’re tall. You should fend off the wind for me.”

nShen Yuechuan was surprisingly generous and reached out his hand to hold Xiao Yunyun’s shoulder, “Since you’re not afraid, let me tell you a story!”

nIn fact, his movement wasn’t invasive at all. It was like holding a brother’s shoulder which showed no intimacy.

nBut Xiao Yunyun still felt uncomfortable. She was about to get rid of Shen Yuechuan’s hand when he turned to look at her. “The story is a bit scary. Do you dare to listen?”

n“Of course, as long as you dare to tell!”

nXiao Yunyun was very confident. Anyway, she was a student of the medical academy!

nShen Yuechuan liked Xiao Yunyun’s reaction. He organized his thoughts and started to tell the story slowly.

n“The wooden architecture on the island was in the charge of Mr. Zhang who prepared the motor boat for us. Several days ago, he reported a thing to me. A strange thing happened when they laid the foundation of the cabin you’ll stay in.”

nXiao Yunyun had a bad feeling but she wasn’t afraid yet. She asked calmly, “What strange thing?”

n“They just couldn’t lay the foundation stably,” Shen Yuechuan said lightly, “Later, he asked a Master over from outside. The Master said the reason was that someone lived there.”

nXiao Yunyun felt even colder but she still pretended she wasn’t scared. “And then? How was it solved?”

n“Then the Master solved it.” Shen Yuechuan pretended to be thinking. “Well, I heard from Mr. Zhang that they had held a ceremony and the Master sent the person to another place. After that, the cabin was built smoothly.”

nRight after those words, they arrived at the door of the cabin. Xiao Yunyun subconsciously stopped.

n“What’s wrong?” Shen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun with “concern” and asked, “Are you scared? Don’t worry. That person was driven away by the Master.”

nThe more Shen Yuechuan emphasized ‘that person’, the more obvious Xiao Yunyun thought about the terrifying images.

nShe had to admit she was afraid, but she didn’t want to show it in front of Shen Yuechuan.

nShe got out of Shen Yuechuan’s grasp and condemned him angrily, “You are highly educated. How can you be so superstitious? Well, stupid is a better word!”

nShen Yuechuan looked at Xiao Yunyun in doubt. “You’re really not afraid?”

nXiao Yunyun crossed her arms in front of her breasts and smiled. “When we had anatomy classes, there were plenty of corpses in a lab. Do you really think this kind of story can scare me?”

nShen Yuechuan understood after thinking about it. Xiao Yunyun was from a medical school. What hadn’t she seen before? What could make her afraid?

nHe suddenly felt that things were boring and waved his hand to Xiao Yunyun. “I’ll go back now. See you tomorrow.”

nSeeing Shen Yuechuan’s figure getting farther and farther away, Xiao Yunyun felt colder and colder. She instantly went back into the cabin.

nBefore she closed the door, Xiao Yunyun turned on all the lights first, then closed all the windows firmly and turned on the phone to play a song called “Good Day”.

n“Aye—, today is a good day~”

nThe cheerful voice filled the whole room. Xiao Yunyun jumped for a few times to cheer herself up, then grabbed her pajamas and went into the bathroom.

nShe kept warning herself to stop those horrifying thoughts, but it didn’t work as she wanted. The scary scenes in the movies and novels kept appearing in her mind.

nShe thought of a woman who would come out of the bath tub, her body bleeding all over…

nThe ghost shadow appearing in the mirror…

nOnce turning around, you would see a man standing in the corner…

nGradually, she almost lost control. Xiao Yunyun held her breath, finished showering at the fastest speed and rushed out of the bathroom.

nJust at that moment, with a “pah” sound, the lights in the room all went out and she was completely swallowed in the darkness.

nA cold smoke went from her head to her toes. She was completely stiff for a second or two. She just opened her mouth but couldn’t say a word.

nAfter two seconds—

n“Ah!”

nWith a loud scream, Xiao Yunyun pushed the door of the cabin open and ran out.

nWithout any consideration, she ran directly to Shen Yuechuan’s cabin and patted on the door, “Shen Yuechuan, Shen Yuechuan!”

nShen Yuechuan was taking a bath. He heard the sound, covered himself with a towel and went out. He opened the door and saw Xiao Yunyun. He felt strange and asked, “What’s the matter?”

n“I…”

nXiao Yunyun completely lost control after uttering a single word. Then tears burst out of her eyes.

n“Hey, don’t cry.” Shen Yuechuan had handled all kinds of women but he had never seen a girl crying in front of him. He became instantly flustered and didn’t know what to do. What was worse, he didn’t know how to comfort her.

nXiao Yunyun looked at Shen Yuechuan with watery eyes. He never thought she would be so terrified because of him and he was still there comforting her to stop crying…

nShe cried even harder.

n“No…” Shen Yuechuan wiped off the tears on Xiao Yunyun’s face, “What are you crying for?”

n“You…” Xiao Yunyun choked as she talked, “The person you talked about, he came back.”

nShen Yuechuan was confused. “Which person?”

nXiao Yunyun stamped her feet. “The person living in my cabin! I just finished showering, then the lights went out. I’m so scared, wuwuwu…”

nShen Yuechuan finally understood. He looked at Xiao Yunyun with guilt, not knowing whether to tell the truth or not.

nIf he came clean, Xiao Yunyun might not let him go. He wouldn’t have a chance to sleep that night.

nAfter thinking for a while, Shen Yuechuan finally made a compromise. “If the lights are out, there must be something wrong with the circuit. I can go to your place to have a look.” Then he wanted to walk out.

nXiao Yunyun held Shen Yuechuan’s hand. “Don’t leave.”

nShen Yuechuan turned around to look at Xiao Yunyun strangely. She realized her action was quite confusing, so she drew her hand back and explained, “I’m scared.”
