Chapter 654 Fatal Game 2 17
Lu Yanxue went to help Hu Ji by heating the reserved food in the microwave.
"Mu Lan, you must be very hungry. Eat more later. These are all your favorite dishes. The boss specially asked us to save them for you."
"Thank you, Sister Yanxue."
"You don't need to thank me, thank the boss instead."
Ruan Lanzhu walked over, poured a glass of juice and handed it to Hu Ji, while also pouring herself some water: "You're welcome."
Hu Ji silently rolled her eyes at him. Did she thank him?
This person is clearly the culprit. If he hadn't disturbed her sleep so early in the morning, she wouldn't have been able to sleep until now because she was catching up on her sleep.
Ruan Lanzhu was thick-skinned and didn't care about her gaze at all. Once the food was ready, he sat next to her and watched her eat.
*
The woman in the rain, the boy crying, and the three doors of the woman who cleared the sky—Hu Ji did not follow them inside.
With the jade pendant she gave him, Ruan Lanzhu wouldn't get hurt inside the door of the Rain Girl.
Therefore, he will personally enter the door for the crying boy, and there is no need to make a deal with Li Dongyuan. Let him and Ling Jiushi enter the door.
With the protective gear given to her by Hu Ji, Tan Zaozao was able to safely exit through the sixth door.
To thank Hu Ji, she specially recommended many fun and delicious things to her, and also gave her many gifts that girls would like.
The woman only picked out a few that caught her eye, and kept the rest.
From then on, both Li Dongyuan and Tan Zaozao successfully survived their near-death experience.
As for Hu Ji, she either stays in the obsidian and lies flat, or goes out to eat and go shopping, or wanders back inside the gate.
*
That day, Hu Ji came out of the door to Obsidian, and in a good mood, she opened the door and went out.
She listened in the hallway; there was no sound from the rooms upstairs, so she guessed everyone was downstairs.
As soon as I went downstairs, I saw everyone sitting around the coffee table, with some cards on it.
Hearing footsteps coming downstairs, the group looked over and discovered it was Hu Ji.
When Cheng Qianli saw her, he curled his lip and said sarcastically, "Who is this? You've finally decided to come back after not seeing her for more than half a month?"
"Little Qianli, you're so childish." Hu Ji passed by him from behind, laughing as she ruffled his hair.
Upon hearing this, Cheng Qianli's eyes widened, and he pointed at himself: "I'm childish? Who was it that agreed to play games together that day, and then disappeared the next day?"
As Hu Ji passed by Ruan Lanzhu, she was pulled to sit on the same sofa as him: "Have you had enough fun this time?"
She nodded: "Yes, I came back because I remembered you. What were you all talking about while you were sitting around?"
Ruan Lanzhu: "We are about to enter the tenth door and are discussing the situation of this door."
"Oh, are you all going in?"
“This is the gate to Yixie. If Chen Fei doesn’t go, Jiu Shi, Qianli, and I will all go.”
"Oh," Hu Ji nodded after hearing this.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Cheng Qianli and realized that she had indeed forgotten what she had promised him that day.
Ruan Lanzhu and Ling Jiushi had been frequently visiting each other recently, discussing clues or going out on errands.
Hu Ji was bored for a few days, so she played games with Cheng Qianli.
The two got along more and more naturally, like a brother and sister who had a good relationship and would bicker.
It was mostly Hu Ji teasing him, or he spoke too directly, and then she started saying sarcastic things that made him angry.
Now Cheng Qianli has also learned to speak in a sarcastic and unpleasant tone; it's unclear whether it's because Hu Ji has corrupted him.
However, standing him up was indeed my fault.
Hu Ji wasn't an unreasonable person; she could easily coax a child: "Alright, I didn't mean it that day. Here's a gift for you as compensation."
As she spoke, she took something out of her pocket and tossed it to him.
Cheng Qianli took it and looked at it with some confusion: "What kind of gift is this? A whistle?"
Hu Ji looked at him with an expression that said he didn't know its value, and held out her hand to him: "This is a prop, give it back to me if you don't want it."
She did have some props on her, since she visited many different places. Some were given to her by the door gods, and others were things she exchanged with them.
The others were surprised by Mu Lan's generosity when they heard that the items were props, and also by the fact that she had quite a lot of props.
She gave Ling Jiushi a knife, and Tan Zaozao a protective prop; everyone else knew this.
There have always been many suspicious points about Hu Ji, but Ruan Lanzhu vouched for her and believed in her, so no one else asked her about the specifics.
In addition, she was very kind to the people in Obsidian, so everyone had long regarded her as a companion. Even if she had secrets, they were very tactful and did not ask too many questions.
"Yes, yes, yes! Sister Mulan is so generous." Cheng Qianli held the whistle, wondering how to use it.
Ruan Lanzhu spoke up: "Who was speaking so disrespectfully and sarcastically just now?"
Cheng Qianli immediately looked at Hu Ji: "I was wrong, Sister Mulan. I will definitely treat you with the utmost respect from now on, even my brother will be ranked after you."
Cheng Yixie slapped him on the back of the head, but didn't refute his words.
He was already worried about Qianli, but Mulan giving his younger brother a prop did put his mind at ease.
Having received her kindness, he quickly stood up to thank her, saying, "Sister Mulan, I'll buy this prop from you at the market price."
Mu Lan waved her hand: "Don't be so polite, this is my compensation for standing him up."
Although she said that, Cheng Yixie still understood that she was taking care of Qianli, otherwise she wouldn't have sent such a precious prop for such a small thing as standing someone up.
Cheng Qianli felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this: "Sister Mulan, what I said earlier was a joke. I can't let you give me a prop for free; we'll buy it with our own money."
“We’re all colleagues, talking about money will hurt our feelings. If you’re embarrassed, just bring me some more food through the next door.”
She wasn't short of money; Ruan Lanzhu had given her a card, so she didn't need that little bit of money at all.
Ruan Lanzhu turned to look at her: "Are you coming in with us too?"
She hasn't been coming in with them lately, so I thought she wasn't planning to come with them either.
However, when he thought about the door they were about to enter, he instantly understood.
"Hmm, what's the next door? Any clues?" Hu Ji glanced at the things on the table.
The story has progressed to the point where everyone is entering the tenth door, and she is somewhat looking forward to them entering their own territory, finally not being a guest herself.
Cheng Qianli spoke first: "My brother said it's called something like 'Box Demon.' Sister Mulan, you can bring whatever food you want, I'll carry it all in for you."
"it is good."
Otherwise, if they go inside and don't open the boxes, there won't be any food, and they'll go hungry.
Seeing that they had finished speaking, Chen Fei pushed up his glasses and picked up his tablet: "Alright, now that you've finished talking, let me tell you about the specifics of the Box Demon's door."
Ling Jiushi nodded, and after everyone quieted down, Chen Fei looked at the information he had looked up and began to read: "Box Demon, a horror-themed board game where players play as passersby who accidentally enter the house where the Box Demon resides."
