“It’s me.”

The moment Tang Li spoke, Tang Zitong got excited and quickly waved at her. “Cousin, come over and hide.”

Tang Li walked over.

Tang Zitong pulled her to a more remote place.

After making sure that they wouldn’t be found out, Tang Zitong stopped and sized Tang Li up before sighing. “I didn’t expect to see you here. What brought you here?”

Tang Li was speechless.

Tang Li glanced at Tang Zitong and asked with a straight face, “Do you know where you are?”

Upon hearing that question, her expression got stern. “I know. I was captured by an old witch. That old witch kidnaps young and beautiful girls here and sucks away their youth and beauty to stay young.”

“Aren’t you afraid?” Tang Li was a little surprised. She remembered that her cousin was not very brave.

“I’m afraid.” Tang Zitong looked around and whispered to Tang Li, “But the old witch is getting married tonight and doesn’t have time to watch us, so we secretly sneaked out and tried to find a way out.”

Tang Zitong actually forgot to be afraid because she was too surprised to see Tang Li. The moment she was asked, she subconsciously grabbed the hem of Tang Li’s shirt and stood behind her.

“Cousin, you know taekwondo, don’t you? If we’re found out, you have to protect me.”

Tang Li asked, her brows furrowed, “Do you think I can defeat the things here with my taekwondo skill? I don’t even know what they are.”

Tang Zitong’s expression darkened even more. She looked completely hopeless.

“Are you saying the only thing we can do now is wait here for the old witch to suck away our youth and beauty?”

Tang Li was silent for a moment before asking, “Have you seen anyone whose youth and beauty was sucked away by the witch?”

“Yes, they’re all in a very remote courtyard at the back. So if I become like them, I’d rather just die.”

Tang Zitong was a delicate woman who liked to look pretty. If she really became old and ugly, she would definitely die.

The Host didn’t have a good relationship with her cousin and normally when they met, they didn’t talk much.

However, in a time of crisis, Tang Zitong started to treat her like her only hope.

Tang Li asked her, “What did the old witch look like?”

“She can morph into the person she sucked away. But most of the time, she can become whoever she likes.”

“How many people has she already sucked away?”

“I don’t know. I saw three people in that courtyard and a few skeletons.”

At the mention of skeletons, Tang Zitong tightened her grip on Tang Li’s shirt.

Tang Li did not let her go and asked, “Who’s getting married tonight?”

“The old witch.”

“Married to whom?”

“I don’t know. I heard he’s an extremely handsome man.”

Tang Li’s eyebrows twitched. She had a bad feeling about this. She subconsciously raised her hand to look at the Red Thread of Fate on her wrist and said to Tang Zitong, “Find a place to hide.”

“What about you?”

“I’ll go to the bridal chamber to take a look.”

With that, she was about to leave when her shirt was grabbed.

“Cousin, don’t go. That old witch has supernatural powers… Besides, you’re a little better looking than me. What if she takes a fancy to your beauty and sucks it away?”

“When the time comes, no one will be willing to be your gigolo even if you are rich.”

Tang Li was speechless.

Tang Li, “Thank you for your concern. I think what you said makes sense.”

“What?”

“Which man can compare to Qi Yihan’s stunning handsomeness? I’ve decided not to look for gigolos in the future.”

“Really?” Tang Zitong looked dumbstruck. “Cousin, I feel happy that you finally decided to atone for your sins. I support you.”

Tang Li was speechless.

Suddenly, Tang Li didn’t find this cousin that detestable anymore.

Tang Li took out a piece of talisman from her pocket and handed it to her. “Take it. It can protect you.”

Tang Zitong looked at the talisman with sparkling eyes. She frowned and said to Tang Li, “Cousin, when did you start to believe in these things?”

“Look at where you are now. Did you believe such a place existed before you came?”

Tang Zitong’s body trembled when she heard that. She quickly took the talisman and put it away. She said to Tang Li, “Cousin, you have to protect yourself. If we can’t get out… at least we have each other’s company.”

“Got it.”

After saying that, Tang Li quickly walked toward the crowd.

As she walked, she drew an Invisibility Talisman.

The building looked a little like Ningguo Mansion. Tang Li had read Dream of the Red Chamber before, and she still remembered the descriptions of the architecture.

There was a large courtyard in front of the bridal room. In the courtyard, there were artificial mountains and streams that were surrounded by various flowers and trees. Servants carried trays as they came and went.

The door to the front courtyard was open, and noises could be heard coming from there.

Tang Li followed the maids to the bridal room.

The door was closed, and the maids stood in two rows with trays. It was obvious that they didn’t dare to enter before they were summoned.

At this moment, a figure walked over.

Tang Li found that the person looked exactly like her.

The woman walked gracefully to the door and said to the group of maids standing there, “Tonight, I will consummate my marriage with my husband. No one is allowed to approach this place.”

“Yes.”

The woman walked over, pushed open the door, and walked in.

Tang Li also walked over.

As she drew a talisman on the door, an invisible portal opened where she walked straight into the bedroom.

There were two rooms inside the bedroom, and the decorations were actually very different from the red color outside.

There was a pair of white candles on the table opposite the door, and the word “Happiness” attached to the wall was also white.

All the decorations were white.

It looked especially scary.

At this moment, a woman’s seductive voice came from inside. “Hubby, we are about to get married. Do you like it?”

Tang Li was immediately furious.

Without looking at what was actually happening inside, Tang Li knew that the groom was definitely her husband.

Just as Tang Li was about to charge in, a cold voice suddenly came from inside. “F*ck off.”

Tang Li stopped in her tracks.

Qi Yihan actually told the woman with her face to f*ck off. Didn’t it mean that Qi Yihan still hated her and didn’t wanna get married to her here?

“Humph! If you don’t want to, then don’t. I don’t want to marry you anyway.” Tang Li thought.

While lost in thought, she suddenly heard a loud commotion coming from inside.

It was like they were fighting.

What was happening?!
