Xu Jialu and Su Lanxu looked at each other, and the same thought appeared in their minds: It’s over! These two people must have been scared silly!

At this time, the room suddenly lit up, and the staff member’s voice rang in the air.

“Congratulations! You’re the first group of players to have successfully escaped from the ‘Red Dress at Midnight’ room! Next, I’ll briefly explain the story to you…”

“‘The Red Dress at Midnight’ is about a husband and wife. After marriage, they had a cute and beautiful daughter. However, the husband was busy with work and ended up neglecting his wife and daughter. The conflict between the husband and wife increased day by day. As time passed, the husband did not even return home. The wife could not deal with her husband’s absence so she went out every day to have fun, leaving her five-year-old daughter at home with the nanny.”

“Due to the nanny’s negligence, the little girl accidentally fell when she climbed up on a stool to get to the phone so she could call her father. She knocked into the mirror, and the glass cut her main artery. In the end, she bled out and died.”

“After the little girl died, the husband and wife blamed each other, and their hatred intensified. Eventually, they divorced and moved out. This place was where the girl died, and her soul was attached to the doll. When a new girl moved in, not only was she not frightened by the doll, but she even cleaned the doll up and fixed it.”

“The little girl was moved by the new girl’s kindness. She knew her parents would not return so she put her hatred aside and moved on.”

“The new girl is Xu Youyou! Due to her courage and kindness, everyone was able to leave this escape room!”

…

After they left the terrifying room, Xu Jialu and Su Lanxu inhaled deeply. They felt as though they had just crawled out of hell. The air outside was so sweet.

Xu Youyou did not say much. From time to time, she would sneak a look at the man next to her.

The staff member returned their phones, wallets, and keys. He even gave Xu Youyou a model of the same doll with the red dress. It was the prize for clearing the room.

Su Lanxu’s lips twitched before she said, “Thank you, but there’s no need for this.”

Xu Jialu thought to himself, ‘Your boss thinks the room isn’t scary enough so he wants to follow up with this?’

The staff member knew this was a stingy gift, but the boss made the rule, after all. There was nothing they could do about it.

Xu Youyou really wanted the doll. It was very cute, after all. However, when she recalled how the doll had made Mo Shenbai uncomfortable, she gave up on it. She said, “Thank you, but…”

Before she could finish speaking, a hand reached out to take the doll.

“Thank you.”

Xu Youyou raised her head to look at Mo Shenbai in surprise when he accepted the doll.

Mo Shenbai’s expression was calm as though nothing had happened as he handed the doll to her. “If you like it, then you should bring it back.”

“Is it really okay?” Xu Youyou asked.

“It’s okay,” Mo Shenbai replied in a deep voice.

Xu Youyou hugged the doll as a smile bloomed on her face.

Xu Jialu rubbed his temples and said warningly, “Xu Youyou, you better not bring this back to our house!”

Xu Jialu really did not want to see that creepy doll again in his life.

The atmosphere was a little heavy, and Xu Youyou wanted to liven up the atmosphere. Hence, she deliberately said, “No. I want to keep it in my room at home. That way, it can accompany Mom, Dad, and you while I’m away…”

“Xu Youyou!” Xu Jialu raised his hand to flick her forehead. However, before his hand could even make contact, it was grabbed by someone.
