Chapter 121: Xia-Zhou Museum (2)

Ye Sui thought for a while and said, “You can write a few words, whatever you want.” Even if there was only one word, it could confirm her suspicion.

Cen Yu didn’t move, having no plans to take a pen and write. Rather, he stared at Ye Sui with his black eyes. “I don’t know what you want to see?”

Ye Sui: “It’s up to you.”

Cen Yu said indifferently, “Ye Sui, what do you want to see? I’ll write to you.”

Cen Yu looked at Ye Sui, raised his hand, and slowly spread out his palm. It was empty. He laughed. “If you don’t give me paper and pen, how can I write?”

Ye Sui thought about it before she turned around to look at the table at her side. She wanted to look for paper and a pen. “Wait just a second.”

She walked to the table and found a piece of paper and a pen after some searching around. Ye Sui then put it on the table. “You can start writing.”

Ye Sui stood aside, making room for Cen Yu. He took the first few steps, picked up the pen, and spread out the paper.

Before Cen Yu started writing, he glanced at the card on the table. He said with a meaningful tone, “I hope what I write will satisfy you.”

Cen Yu leaned down and touched the white paper. Strokes appeared across the paper as black handwriting unfolded little by little. The light fell on the paper, illuminating the words clearly.

“For the beautiful Miss Ye Sui.”

It was the exact sentence as on the card, and the handwriting was also the same. The pen-tip flowed across the paper, leaving behind sharp, perfect words.

Having confirmed her suspicions, Ye Sui sighed in her heart. “It really is you.” The person sending her flowers this past month was Cen Yu.

Cen Yu straightened up. He leaned against the dressing table, where she could not avoid looking at him, and admitted it. “It was me.”

Ye Sui asked, “Why are you sending me flowers every day?”

Cen Yu didn’t speak for a moment. His eyes swept over Ye Sui’s face, and his voice was clear as he answered, “If you like someone, go after her. I think there is nothing to hide.”

His voice then went a bit lower. “If my behavior was rude, I am here to apologize.”

Ye Sui paused for a few seconds, looked at Cen Yu, and said seriously, “I’m sorry, I already have someone I like.”

Cen Yu’s smile became slightly stiff, and his tone also slowed down. “May I take the liberty to ask, who that person is?”

Chen Shu’s face flashed in Ye Sui’s mind, and she smiled unconsciously. “I can’t tell you who he is. I can only say that he is a very good person.”

Ye Sui’s eyes were clear and bright as she emphasized. “I will never meet another person like that in my life.”

Cen Yu could tell that Ye Sui was very happy when she mentioned him. It seemed that no one could intervene between the two.

He was a little sad. Cen Yu planned to pursue Ye Sui, but it was a pity that his pursuit was over before it even started.

Cen Yu smiled. “Then, I bless you.”

He returned to his usual open-minded and free-spirited appearance. “Ye Sui, you are the first person I liked. I didn’t expect it to be such a failure.

“Oh, I’m a little sad.”

Ye Sui comforted Cen Yu, “You are very outstanding. You will definitely meet someone better.”

Cen Yu looked at Ye Sui and was silent for a few seconds.

After a while, he opened his mouth, his voice soft as he said, “It will be different.”

Ye Sui did not catch his words, so she asked, “What did you say?”

Cen Yu raised his head, smiled, and the sadness from before was hidden instantly. “I said, I will take these flowers away, and I won’t hinder your work anymore.”

Ye Sui didn’t have the slightest idea of Cen Yu’s thoughts. “Thank you.”

Cen Yu took the flowers and left straight away. Ye Sui’s voice sounded behind him, but he didn’t turn his head. He waved his hand back as he replied, “You’re welcome.”

After that, Ye Sui also left. No one would know what happened here.

The response to the supernatural show, , had been outstanding. Still, Director Sun was extremely demanding, and he always sought breakthroughs.

In the next episode, Director Sun found the president of the Xia Zhou Palace Museum and applied for filming there.

Curator Xia was a middle-aged man, but he knew a lot about young people from the Internet. He was a big fan, too.

During previous exhibitions in the Xia Zhou Palace, no crew was able to do any filming. However, these days, President Xia was considering filming a documentary, and this show would be a good publicity stunt.

After the two parties discussed and ruled out various unsafe factors, such as old or unrepaired sections, they decided to open a few places in the palace that had never been shown on any program.

The official Weibo of the Xia Zhou Palace Museum also issued a promotion. “There was someone present that night.”

Below was a poster of an enchanting figure standing in the huge palace, holding a lamp in their hand.

“What’s this?! Is the Xia Zhou Palace Museum open at night? How do you get tickets?”

“Upstairs(original poster), you really think too much. Just go back, wash up, and sleep. This Weibo and poster obviously match the style of the show’s next episode. I guess the group of ‘Are There Really Ghosts in the World?’ is going to Xia Zhou Palace.”

Before long, the show’s team reposted Xia Zhou Palace Museum official Weibo and announced the event.

The guests and netizens learned at the same time that the next episode would be held in the Xia Zhou Palace Museum, which had hundreds of years of history inside. When the news came out, everyone was shocked.

There were always mysteries in ancient and mysterious places. Xia Zhou Palace Museum had never been open at night before. It would be cleared as soon as the afternoon arrived, and tourists could not stay here after sunset.

Some people said that they had seen ghosts, some said that they got lost and encountered ghosts crossing the wall, while others said that people with weak characters could not go to the Xia Zhou Palace Museum… But these were just rumors.

Netizens were looking forward to it since the announcement. Finally, the wait ended, and the episode was broadcasted.

At the beginning of the live broadcast, the number of viewers broke the previous record. Not only the normally enthusiastic audiences had tuned in, but the fans of Xia Zhou Palace were also attracted.

[Aahhh, we haven’t even started yet, but I’m already so scared. I’m going to enter Xia Zhou Palace Museum, where scary rumors are so frequent.]

[Xia Zhou Palace Museum had been on exhibition for many years, and there are many staff members who have never had any bad experiences. Don’t listen to the gossip, okay?]

A group of guests was gathered outside the palace gate. They happily chatted and were not affected by the online rumors. The female guests were daring enough, and only Jin Gang had brought a charm.

Ye Sui saw Song Bai carrying a schoolbag. “You brought your homework again?”

Song Bai shook her head. “The school arranged a supplementary lesson today, so I came here directly there. I forgot to put the history textbook under my desk.”

Song Bai said as she took out her history book and turned to the page of Xia Zhou Dynasty, showing it to Ye Sui.

“Xiao Bai, you brought the book, so did I.” Zhao Hui also pulled out an old book from her bag. The cover was wrinkled, and a few words on it could be vaguely seen, ‘Ancient Anecdotes’.

Ye Sui asked, “Where did you buy this book?”

Zhao Hui grinned. “I saw it on a street stall before the shooting. The stall owner said that no one would buy it, so he just gave it to me.”

Guests at the scene: “…”

The audience laughed, and the atmosphere of horror was immediately diluted. Fortunately, the guests were brave; otherwise, even the netizens would have to worry about them.

“This variety show is exciting. The previous episode was about breaking feudal superstitions. In this episode, a group of stars has started to read a history book in the Xia Zhou Palace.”

“What the heck is Ancient Anecdotes? It was bought from a street stall! Everyone, please don’t take it seriously. This book’s cover is unreliable at first glance; don’t frighten yourself.”

“Don’t worry, Master Zhu is back in this episode. Our Goddess Ye is also here. Any monsters and ghosts will show their true color.”

Contrary to what everyone thought, Ye Sui’s first feeling was not fear but excitement when she heard that she was coming to the Xia Zhou Palace.

She had a sense of familiarity with the Xia Zhou dynasty, a feeling she had had twice before.

The show management had told them that they would go to some areas that had not been publicly exhibited this time. Ye Sui took this opportunity to explore the truth.

The guests stood still, and only Ye Sui asked, “President Xia, when can we go in?”

President Xia took a lantern out of nowhere. “I will take everyone inside.”

“Am I the only one who thought about the lantern girl on the poster? The poster and President Xia are simply a show of sellers and buyers.”

“Hush, they are going into the palace. Don’t spoil the atmosphere. I haven’t seen the Xia Zhou Palace Museum at night yet; I can’t wait.”

Ye Sui watched the gate of Xia Zhou Palace Museum, which opened in front of her. A dull and oppressive air blew on her face and surrounded her whole body. She glanced around; perhaps, only she had felt it.

Their figures disappeared into the palace, and the door slowly closed behind them.

President Xia carried the lantern and led the group through the Xia Zhou Palace Museum.

It was late at night, and there was a crescent moon as white as a pear blossom above their heads. The moon struggled as it was engulfed by the gloomy night, the moonlight hazy and indistinguishable.

The cold moonlight fell on the ground, adding a strange atmosphere to the area.

The palace walls confined the guests inside. The path was broad and long, and behind the solemnity of the area, there were layers of depression and heavy shackles.

A long palace path, a lonely wind, and a cold lamp.

As the night continued, they walked along the seemingly unending road.

The strange thing was that there were no ghosts on the road.
