1823 Old Liang Family Residence, Clue for the New Game

Because of Chi Shuyan’s presence, everyone showed Qi Hao concern. Their expressions were very worried and sympathetic. As for what they were thinking in their hearts, no one knew.

After returning to their room, Qi Hao was puzzled and broke down a little. He finally dared to confess his feelings. “Sister-in-law, I’ve always felt that I have a good character and no one would vote for me. Who would have thought?”

The blow tonight was too big for him to take. Without waiting for Chi Shuyan to speak, Qi Hao said in a puzzled tone, “I wrote my name, but where did the other two votes come from? Who voted for me? It’s unlikely that Lu Ningwen and Fang Yu voted for me. Then, who were the two people who voted for me? Could it be that Du man? But I don’t have any grudges with him. Or does he hate me for helping Ningwen before?”

When Haozi brought up the voting, there was no warmth in Chi Shuyan’s eyes and her face was 120% cold. She said in a low voice, “It wasn’t him.”

“Sister-in-law, what did you say? I didn’t hear you. My luck is pretty ordinary. It took all my luck to leave the burial mounds last time. I won’t really die here this time, right?” Qi Hao couldn’t help but think too much. He paused for a moment, but before Chi Shuyan could comfort him, he quickly shifted his attention to the ball which his sister-in-law had just drawn. Was there any clue in it about tomorrow night?

Qi Hao was a particularly curious person. Chi Shuyan also satisfied this kid’s curiosity and opened the ball in front of him. Unfortunately, it was a blank note with no clues. Qi Hao looked regretful. “How can it be blank? Sister-in-law, haven’t you always been lucky?”

For example, with the stone gambling.

Chi Shuyan glanced at the note indifferently. It didn’t matter if it was blank or if it had a clue. It didn’t mean much to her. Moreover, she had the feeling that getting a clue might not be a good thing.

She didn’t say this to Haozi, but suddenly tugged at his collar. After confirming that the jade pendant she had refined before was around Haozi’s neck, she relaxed. However, just in case, she had this kid take off the jade pendant and give it to her so that she could upgrade it.

When Qi Hao heard his sister-in-law’s plan, he hurriedly took off the jade pendant. After his sister-in-law finished upgrading it, he immediately put it back on, and felt much safer.

Qi Hao immediately said, “Sister-in-law, I’ll go take a shower first.”

“Wait, leave the door open!” Chi Shuyan thought of Yun Yiyi’s fate and felt that it was best to be cautious. It was as if her five senses were blocked in this house, which was very strange. She couldn’t tell anything from a person’s physiognomy here, so it wasn’t wrong to be careful.

Qi Hao was instantly agitated when he heard this, and his ears immediately turned red. Seeing that his sister-in-law seemed to want to follow him into the bathroom, Qi Hao was stupefied and his cheeks flushed red. He said nervously, “No, no, no… Sister-in-law, if my cousin finds out, he definitely won’t let me off.”

As soon as he said that, he saw his sister-in-law stop at the door and tell him to take his shower. Only then did Qi Hao realize that his sister-in-law never had any intention of following him into the bathroom. His face was especially bright red with embarrassment. Grabbing his pajamas, he went into the bathroom.

Although he was embarrassed to see his sister-in-law standing at the bathroom door, he actually did feel more reassured.

Compared with Qi Hao and Chi Shuyan, the others couldn’t calm down. When everyone else opened their balls to look at their clues in their rooms, they were agitated and their faces were very solemn and unsightly.

There was no movement in the other rooms for a long time. When Fang Yu and Lu Ningwen opened their balls and saw what they had gotten, their expressions changed drastically.

Moreover, who knew if their luck was good or not, but the two of them had drawn the same clue.

The two looked at each other, and Fang Yu couldn’t help but say, “Ningwen, what do you think this clue means? And this line – ‘The fittest survive and the weak are eliminated; only two can live.’ What on earth does this mean? Should we go to Haozi’s room and ask Celestial Master Chi?”

Lu Ningwen immediately rejected the suggestion with a solemn face. “Hang on!”

It wasn’t that he didn’t want to trust Celestial Master Chi and Brother Qi. If it really was what he thought – that only two people could leave this place alive in the end – who could resist the temptation to survive? That included Celestial Master Chi. After all, looking at her face, she would protect Brother Qi tonight.

If Brother Qi did make it out alive after tonight, it just so happened that he and Celestial Master Chi were two people. It was hard to say if Celestial Master Chi wasn’t selfish, and would keep herself and her cousin alive by sacrificing the others.

Moreover, he was a little worried about the clue in Celestial Master Chi’s hands. If they were the same, would she now be thinking about sacrificing them and the others?

Lu Ningwen couldn’t be blamed for not trusting the two of them. For one thing, he had been in the entertainment industry for many years and had seen all sorts of people. On the surface, they were good to you, but in private, they betrayed you and wanted to kill you. In the end, they had only known each other for a few days. He felt that his and Fang Yu’s lives definitely couldn’t compare with Brother Qi’s. It was hard to guarantee that Celestial Master Chi wouldn’t sacrifice them for Brother Qi’s sake.

That was the human heart.

After listening to Lu Ningwen’s analysis, Fang Yu’s face was also very unsightly. “Ningwen, what on earth are we going to do? Did the others also get this same clue? Should we go and sound them out?”
