23: Old Dream

"Wa!" Chen Guan Chao vomitted just as he ran out of the cellar.

Ning Yu Ren who was slightly slower than him, "..."

When he had finally finished vomiting, Chen Guan Chao knelt on the floor. He held himself and shivered. "She is so scary! Ghosts are my greatest fear!"

Ning Yu Ren muttered, "...So timid, how are you even going to shoot a thriller?"

Chen Guan Chao's face was flushed, he turned around and glared at her, "You're not scared? Then go back and stay with her!"

Ning Yu Ren shook her head without thinking, her teeth chattering, brrr...

Chen Guan Chao basked under the sun for a while. Feeling that his yang energy1 was recharged, his courage returned. He stood up and pointed at Ning Yu Ren, arrogantly passing judgement, "Let me tell you, you won't beat her as you are now!"

Ning Yu Ren was stunned.

"There will only be one Phantom candidate!" Chen Gao Chao laughed, raised his arm and pointed towards the cellar, "By the looks of it, she is more like the Phantom than you, isn't she?

Ning Yu Ren slowly turned pale.

On the second day, Chen Guan Chao had people clean up the rooms and the cellar. Ning Yu Ren grabbed her basic supplies and hesitated for a while in the sparkling clean room, eventually walking down to the cellar resolutely.

...During the night, she was worried about not being able to sleep, needing to use the washroom...

Two coffins were placed side by side in the cellar. Ning Yu Ren pressed her ear on the inner wall of the coffin for a while. She didn't hear Ning Ning. She gulped and turned on the flashlight, then softly and quietly climbed out of the coffin she was in. Suddenly, she felt that there was something weird beside her. She slowly turned her head and looked over. She saw that in the coffin beside her sat a woman whose hair was draped over her face looking at her.

"It's a ghost!!!" Ning Yu Ren screamed and ran out of the cellar.

"No, I'm not a ghost." Ning Ning pulled her hair back, revealing a face full of tears and mucus. "I couldn't sleep because of a nightmare,.. sob, sniffle..."

Ning Yu Ren returned very late into the night. She tossed and turned after returning, not sleeping a wink that night. She continued to avoid Ning Ning after she had woken up, looking like she was a little afraid of her.

Ning Ning didn't know why Ning Yu Ren was so scared of her, but she soon found out, it was not only Mama, the rest of the people were also afraid of her.

Till one day she overheard someone else gossiping about her.

"Don't you guys feel that..." There was a pile of fruits and sunflower seeds, the Socialite was telling everyone as she was munching on a sunflower seed, "That person, Wen Xiao Ning, is a little weird!"

"A little. There was once I woke up in the middle of the night to visit the washroom, I saw her walking around the courtyard, laughing and crying to the plum tree."

"Oh em gee, you saw that too? Actually I've seen that as well, but it was not to the plum tree. She was carrying the head of a doll, talking to it as she combed its hair."

When someone returned to their old home, they would inevitably be overwhelmed with emotions. Ning Ning's heart maintained that every blade of grass and every chunk of wood was a piece of memory, a person could not help but laugh and cry.

"Hey..." The Socialite suddenly called everyone over and said in a low voice, "Do you guys think that...she is a human or a ghost?"

The rest of the people collectively took a breath, one of them mocked, "How could a ghost walk under the sun?"
