Chapter 131: Sign Language
Though Quinn did not know anyone who knew sign language, he had heard about it and slightly understand it.
He could tell that Pauline was using sign language.
How could a manager be so versatile? She even knew sign language!
Quinn was at his wit’s end.
What should he do now?
Quinn was about to break out in a cold sweat. He had just mentioned that Lauren knew sign language. If Lauren could not use sign language, they would be exposed.
Thankfully, such a terrifying scene did not happen.
What was even more shocking than the fact that Pauline knew sign language was that Lauren actually knew sign language as well.
After Pauline finished forming a sentence, Lauren ‘replied’ with her hand gestures.
Quinn stood there. He did not understand what the two of them were talking about, but at least they were not exposed. This made him feel relieved for the time being.
The two of them exchanged a few gestures before Pauline stood up with a smile on her face. It seemed that the doubt in her eyes had completely disappeared.
“Pauline, what did you say just now?” Quinn asked.
“Nothing much, but your sister really cares about you. Since you want to become famous so badly, I can help you. However, you can’t ask too many questions. You just have to do as I say.”
Such an easy deal? What did Lauren say just now?
Did she say something bad about him?!
Quinn nodded. He had no other choice but to nod.
“Alright, I’ll let you know when I’ve made the necessary arrangements. You guys can leave first. I think your sister is pretty scared.”
Scared?
Quinn was doubtful.
How could Lauren be scared? She was the boldest person that Quinn had ever met.
He followed Pauline’s line of sight and saw that Lauren had already changed into a shivering expression. It was a pitiful sight.
“Well, we’ll leave now. Let me know as soon as you have any news.”
Before he left, Quinn took another look at Cynthia, who was standing in front of the altar. She didn’t seem to be so scared anymore. She was playing with the pendant in her hand and her fingers caressed the raised part of the pendant.
After leaving the room, Quinn let out a sigh of relief and dragged Lauren back the same way.
It was not until he successfully got on the car that Quinn finally relaxed completely. He collapsed on the seat with his back drenched in cold sweat.
Ben was not personally involved in the mission this time, but he was curious.
He turned his head from the driver’s seat and asked, “How did it go?”
“How else could it possibly have gone? I’m scared to death,” Quinn groaned.
Quinn turned around and saw Lauren sitting next to him. She was now sipping her drink with relish.
Lauren took a big gulp and licked her lips in satisfaction.
“I walked so much just now. Now I’m hungry.”
Quinn was speechless. As expected, Lauren was faking her fear just now.
If only Lauren had entered the entertainment industry 20 years earlier, she would already be a movie queen.
Quinn had a lot of questions in his heart that he had yet to find answers to. Therefore, he kept asking questions on the way back.
“Why do you know sign language? I was scared to death just now. I thought if I was exposed, I could pull you and run away. After all, my legs are quite long, and I can run fast.”
Hearing that Quinn planned to run away and didn’t forget to bring her along, Lauren was very happy. So, she patiently answered Quinn’s question.
“I felt bored earlier, so I took some time to learn sign language,” Lauren replied.
Of course, this was only a lie to Quinn. The real reason was that she had a mission before, and the main character of the mission could not speak. They could only communicate through sign language, so Lauren spent a month to learn sign language.
She learnt sign language because she was bored? This reason was really…refreshing.
As Ben drove, he sighed. This was the first time he had seen Lauren and Quinn get along so harmoniously with each other. It had already been five minutes, and the two of them hadn’t started fighting!
“Also, what’s the background of that plastic doll? It looks too strange.”
“I will have to go to the library to find out the details, but these dolls are definitely just a symbol. They’re just objects to be worshipped.”
“Then…then are you telling the truth about the living dead? We didn’t see any living or dead people in there.”
“Of course the people wouldn’t be there. Otherwise, we would have called the police right then and there. They must have put these living dead people in another place. Anyway, your manager Pauline is too weird. This matter is definitely not that simple.”
