Chapter 107: Haunted House (2)

“But why do I think that Ye Sui is scarier? Looks like the program group will not be able to scare these bold guests once again, and Ye Sui will have to do it.”

Ye Sui’s habit of maintaining her composure when facing ghosts was interpreted as daring by the netizens.

Anyway, in their eyes, Ye Sui was fearless. If exaggerated, she should be able to make friends with ghosts.

Before shooting, the program team had arranged a few worn-out couches in the living room.

Needless to say, this was done deliberately to create a kind of scary mood. They wanted to make these guests afraid so that there was a topic to spend time on.

As soon as Ye Sui reached the very edge of the sofa and sat down, Jin Gang and Song Bai suddenly also picked up their pace and took their seats one by one.

Song Bai sat next to Ye Sui, while Jingang sat next to her. They all wanted to sit in the position closest to Ye Sui.

Zhao Hui, who had the same idea, was a little late. She watched Jingang take the lead and snatch the place she wanted.

Ye Sui was not scared by ghosts, but she was frightened by the two people’s actions.

Zhao Hui walked to Jingang’s side. She wasn’t going to sit down, but rather stood in front of him, smiling at him.

Jingang felt an invisible pressure. However, he didn’t want to get up, nor did he want to hide his fears like he did in the last episode.

Although she was a fellow student of Jin Gang, she was a year ahead. She smiled and looked at him. “Jin Gang, don’t you think it’s not good for a grown man to hang around here?”

“Being terrified this way, wouldn’t your muscles be wasted? Also, what about the fans who adore you?”

Jingang stood up with a look of grief and anger. He then moved to the other end of the sofa. Zhao Hui sat down unceremoniously, keeping close to Song Bai.

Who knew what would happen? It was best to sit beside Ye Sui.

Ye Sui was amused by these interactions. It seemed like she had inflicted some deep scars last time.

Ye Sui and the several guest stars got along very well, but the newcomer, Deng Zhi, couldn’t butt in. However, she didn’t want to interfere with them either.

Deng Zhi wanted to be nicknamed “Little Ye Sui”. She intended to deliberately create the illusion that Ye Sui and other guests had isolated her, so as to win the sympathy of fans.

Jin Gang aggrievedly sat on the edge of the couch. He noticed Deng Zhi, who was left alone, and pointed to Zhao Hui’s position. “Deng Zhi, if you are afraid, sit next to Ye Sui.”

Deng Zhi shook her head. “No, I’ll just sit here.”

At the same time, Deng Zhi looked at Ye Sui, as if she had been greatly aggrieved.

Ye Sui was aware of Deng Zhi’s line of sight, but she didn’t care. She just gazed back at Deng Zhi calmly.

Zhao Hui saw Deng Zhi’s attempt at first glance. She didn’t show it, though. She just complained in her heart. Even the youngest Song Bai felt something wrong with Deng Zhi’s attitude towards Ye Sui.

To the thick-headed Jingang, the spot next to Ye Sui was precious, as was the one a few seats away from her. Since Deng Ji was so adamant that he didn’t want it, he was welcomed to it.

Ye Sui saw the TV’s remote control in front of her and took the initiative to take it.

For others, the remote control was like a set bomb. Who knew what was on it? Only Ye Sui dared to take it.

Ye Sui didn’t turn on the TV right away. Instead, she said to the director, “Director Sun, you prepared an old sofa and TV, but you forgot one thing.”

Song Bai and his colleagues all looked at Ye Sui blankly, not knowing what she would say next.

Director Sun, who had his intentions exposed, smiled cheekily. “What do you want?”

Ye Sui replied, “When I watch TV, I like to eat snacks and have some drinks; otherwise, it’s so boring.”

The prelude to what was clearly a horror movie was broken up into a tea party scene by Ye Sui. The atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.

Director Sun really couldn’t keep up with Ye Sui’s brain circuit. He could only respond to her request and put snacks and drinks in front of them.

When Ye Sui saw the white peach flavored soda on the table, her eyes lit up. As she drank the soda, she sneaked peeks at Chen Shu.

Although Chen Shu stood far away from her, he had seen her reaction.

Seeing that the other guests were paying attention to the snacks on the table, Ye Sui pretended to carelessly glance at Chen Shu and shook the soda on her hand.

Chen Shu understood her intentions. His lips curved, a smile floating in his eyes.

As Ye Sui drank the sweet soft drink, she recalled Chen Shu telling her before that he had bought the soda drink for her.

It meant that Chen Shu was concerned about her. The corner of her mouth turned into a smile as she thought about it.

Song Bai looked at Ye Sui giggling while drinking the soda. She was surprised. “Is it that good to drink?”

Ye Sui nearly choked. She closed the lid, picked up a bottle of soda from the table, and handed it to her. “Delicious… It tastes delicious.”

Song Bai, who had been recommended the product, opened the lid in silence.

The netizens blew up into laughter.

“In the middle of the night, watching such an old video, I wouldn’t know whether the snack went in through the mouth or the nose. Only Ye Sui can pull this off.”

“It seems that Ye Sui likes to drink this kind of soda very much. I will buy a box tomorrow.”

Ye Sui didn’t know that her unintentional move had made the sales of white peach flavored soda rise rapidly.

There were also some netizens discussing Deng Zhi. She wanted to be “Little Ye Sui”, so as to promote herself, but she did not expect to have the opposite effect.

“What’s wrong with Deng Zhi? Ye Sui hasn’t even spoken a few words to her, so how could her eyes look so aggrieved?”

“The relationship among other guests is so good, except Deng Zhi, the party-pooper. If it was not for the live broadcast, I would have skip[ed her directly.”

The video finally started. They had only watched for seconds before the lights went out suddenly. Deng Zhi screamed without warning and terrified everyone.

The director laughed mischievously. “Turning the light off is so much more artistic.”

The whole room was plunged into darkness. Only the light on the TV screen illuminated the guests’ faces.

Before watching the video, Ye Sui had prepared herself. The program team would definitely play tricks. It was just that the video was jammed. In the middle, there were some noises and snowflakes.

Ye Sui quietly told Song Bai and Zhao Hui, “Get ready. Maybe the TV will malfunction.”

Her voice had just fallen when the video started freezing, and the screen began flickering, along with crackling sounds.

With his ears pricked up, Jin Gang had heard Ye Sui’s words clearly. However, his ears were suddenly filled with screams all of a sudden, which frightened him into a shock, and he followed suit.

Jin Gang also screamed aloud, scaring Zhao Hui, who instantly hugged Song Bai. Under the chain reaction, Song Bai clung to Ye Sui. Ye Sui then turned to Chen Shu for comfort.

The director’s face was complicated. He didn’t expect that his modified video wouldn’t scare the guests. Instead, it was Deng Zhi’s scream that did the trick.

After watching for a while, except for Deng Zhi’s screams from time to time, the other guests had calmed down. As long as they were wary of Deng Zhi’s sudden screams, there seemed to be nothing to be afraid of.

Halfway through, Ye Sui felt thirsty. She picked up the soda bottle and began to drink it. She had just closed the bottle cap when an idea suddenly hit her.

Ye Sui used the light from the TV to determine Chen Shu’s location. Then, she pretended to lose her grip. The soda slid out of her hand and rolled to Chen Shu’s feet.

Chen Shu was stunned. He picked up the bottle at his feet and walked a few steps towards Ye Sui, as if he were returning things.

Ye Sui had a reason to call Chen Shu. Her courage shot through the roof as Chen Shu bent down and handed her the soda. She took advantage of the opportunity to squeeze his hand.

Fortunately, the director had turned off the light, and the scene was dark once again. Even if there was some weak light from the screen, Ye Sui’s action could not be clearly seen.

When Ye Sui kneaded Chen Shu’s hand, she also softly said, “Thank you.”

Chen Shu laughed and returned to his previous position.

Ye Sui leaned back on the sofa, but her heart beat faster and faster. She and Chen Shu’s actions just now were just like flirting under the eyes of others.

So, this was how it felt to secretly show affection under the public’s eyes.

Ye Sui covered her wildly beating heart, secretly glad for the dim light. Otherwise, she would be unable to explain the sudden blush on her face.
