Midnight Scare!
Luo Tianyi was utterly terrified, especially with Ye Xuan's "Immersive Experience Card" enhancement, leaving her with lingering dread.
"Ye Xuan, you... you're going to scare me to death!"
Luo Tianyi let out a deep sigh and shot a fierce glare at Ye Xuan. The scoundrel had told her such a terrifying ghost story, it was as if she were about to die.
After Ye Xuan's insane midnight ghost story, Luo Tianyi felt like vengeful spirits could burst from the villa windows at any moment. She had never heard such frightening tales.
And this was just the beginning, then came...
The Phantom Bus, The Hand in the Darkness, The Kettle Filled with Blood, Midnight Back-to-Back, and so on.
Each ghost story was incredibly chilling. Luo Tianyi was truly shaken by Ye Xuan's performance, clutching him tightly like an octopus, her chest compressed, as if she wanted to melt into his body.
"Hiss..."
"Ye Xuan, you scoundrel!!"
After seven or eight ghost stories, Luo Tianyi was clearly at her wit's end. She didn't even dare to go to the toilet at night, gritting her teeth and clenching her jaw, intending to bite someone fiercely to calm her nerves.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the 'Ghost Story Operation to Subdue Luo Tianyi' mission. Reward: 30 billion R..."
The sky was dark, the sun and moon unseen.
After more than an hour of torment, Luo Tianyi leaned her head on his shoulder, her eyes hazy as she looked at the man holding her. She liked him immensely, feeling as if he were poison, drawing her deeper and deeper in.
A beautiful and tranquil atmosphere silently unfolded.
Unlike before, Ye Xuan now possessed a physical constitution of 40 and wealth close to 90 billion. Life couldn't be better.
Ring ring~
Just then, Luo Tianyi's phone rang. Seeing it was her cousin Su Wanqing, she ignored the hand resting on her chest and answered.
"Hello, Cousin."
"What did you say!!"
Hearing the news from her cousin Su Wanqing, Luo Tianyi's eyes widened. "Third Uncle and Luo Yu... are under investigation and have been imprisoned. They probably won't get out this lifetime."
"This..."
"Alright, I understand."
After hanging up, Luo Tianyi's mind was in turmoil. The news of Third Uncle and Luo Yu's imprisonment hit her with immense shock.
But... how was this possible?
Could it be, that person? Luo Tianyi's mind conjured the image of a certain "big pig's trotter" beside her. They had a conflict not long ago, but it couldn't be, Ye Xuan couldn't possibly have such great influence.
The thought, once it appeared, was immediately dismissed by Luo Tianyi.
"What's wrong?"
Ye Xuan, putting on an act, asked with feigned suspicion. Of course, he had already understood the situation from her conversation. Luo Yu and his father's imprisonment didn't surprise him.
If, with such irrefutable evidence, Luo Yu and his father weren't imprisoned, that would be the real surprise.
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Luo Tianyi's belief in her guess grew stronger, the last shred of doubt vanishing. "Ye Xuan, do you know, Luo Yu and my Third Uncle are under investigation, and all their misdeeds have come to light. They'll likely never get out of prison."
"Oh!?"
"My cheap brother-in-law?"
Ye Xuan pretended to be astonished, glancing at Luo Tianyi. "However, it seems my wife isn't worried at all. In fact, she looks quite happy."
"I..."
Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Luo Tianyi's cheeks flushed. "When I was little, Third Uncle and his family always mocked me. Especially Luo Yu. There were several times when I was a child that I wanted to burn their whole family." Su Dan Novel Network
"Husband, am I... very cold-blooded? After all... they are my Third Uncle and cousin."
At this point, a hint of struggle appeared between Luo Tianyi's brows. Ye Xuan lightly tapped her forehead. "Silly girl, what are you thinking? If you're cold-blooded, then wasn't I even more heartless when I dealt with Luo Yu before?"
"Some things, humans do, heaven watches. Just follow your heart."
Ye Xuan said this. Of course, if Luo Tianyi knew that her Third Uncle and cousin's imprisonment were all thanks to her man, he wondered what her reaction would be.
