Xu Jialu looked in the direction of the flashlight and cursed, “F*ck! Su Lanxu, are you a pervert? Why did you choose such a terrifying place?”

Su Lanxu glared at Xu Jialu as she thought to herself, ‘What do you know? You know nothing!’

Not daring to look at Mo Shenbai shone on, Su Lanxu said stubbornly, “Don’t you think it’s very exciting? It’s really fun!”

Xu Jialu’s expression seemed to say, ‘I see. So you’re a pervert!’

Mo Shenbai froze. His face paled, and his expression turned unsightly. It was as though he was feeling suffocated.

Xu Youyou, who was standing next to Mo Shenbai, could vaguely sense that something was wrong with him. She raised her head and saw his slightly pale face. He looked slightly weak, and his dark eyes shone with complex emotions, making her feel sorry for him. She reached out and tugged his sleeve and said in a sweet voice, “It’s just a doll. Even if there’s a ghost, I’ll protect you.”

Mo Shenbai’s thick eyelashes fluttered slightly. It was as though his soul had finally returned to his body. He slowly lowered his head and met a pair of clear and bright eyes. When he saw her cute and smiling face, he felt that she was warmer and more dazzling than the sun. Her hand that was tugging his sleeve felt like it was dragging him out of a cold and dark abyss.

Mo Shenbai reached out to hold her soft hand as he replied in a low voice, “Mm.”

At this moment, the desolate land in Mo Shenbai’s heart gradually gained light and colors.

Xu Youyou was stunned. However, before she could react, Xu Jialu rushed over and slapped Mo Shenbai’s hand away. He asked, “What are you doing?! Don’t touch my Youyou.”

Xu Jialu wrapped his arm around Xu Youyou’s shoulders, and he looked at Mo Shenbai as though Mo Shenbai was a thief who was coveting his treasure.

Mo Shenbai’s empty hand caused the return of the coldness in his heart. The chill lingered in his heart as though it would not disappear.

“Brother!” Xu Youyou tugged at Xu Jialu’s sleeve, indicating that he should stop talking nonsense.

Xu Jialu did not think too much of it. “I didn’t say anything wrong. You’re a girl so you should learn to keep a safe distance from the opposite sex.”

Xu Youyou did not refute Xu Jialu’s words, but she did not take his words to heart either. After all, in her heart, she knew Mo Shenbai was not someone who would take advantage of a woman.

Xu Youyou looked at the silent Mo Shenbai with her clear eyes. She could feel that his reaction was not quite right. It did not seem like he was afraid; he looked uncomfortable. He had been fine all this time so the cause of his discomfort had to be the doll on the ground. With that, she decisively turned around and walked toward the doll.

“What are you doing?” Xu Jialu asked, alarmed. He wanted to pull her back, but it was too late.

Mo Shenbai looked at her and shone his flashlight at her.

Xu Youyou bent down and picked up the doll on the ground.

The doll had blonde and curly hair, blue eyes, and was dressed in a red princess gown. Its head was tilted unnaturally to the side, and its face was stained with blood. It looked a little scary in such an environment.

Su Lanxu glanced at the doll and hurriedly looked away before she said, “Youyou, hurry up and throw that thing away! It looks so scary.”

Xu Youyou did not throw it away. Instead, she brought a piece of tissue out and gently wiped the blood off the doll’s face as she said, “It’s not scary. It’s just fake blood.”

After that, Xu Youyou fixed the doll’s head and said, “Look. It’s actually quite cute.”

Xu Jialu: “…”

Su Lanxu: “…”

The staff member monitoring the room: “…”

‘Who would’ve thought the sweetest looking girl is the bravest of them all?’

Mo Shenbai’s dark eyes shifted from the doll to Xu Youyou’s delicate face. A faint smile appeared on his face as he said, “Yes, it’s very cute.”
