Cheng Yi’s smile froze instantly. She widened her eyes in disbelief. Why, was it a solo mission this time? What if there was a ghost in the kitchen?
“Why don’t I go?” He Zhou frowned when he heard that.
She was so timid, how could she do a solo mission?
He Sui did not expect this either. He was stunned for a moment and could not help but suspect that the director of the secret room was up to something.
He Jing, on the other hand, was calm. She could guess with her toes that to increase the difficulty of the secret chamber, the director of the secret chamber would monitor everyone’s condition through surveillance cameras. Then, every time it came to such a segment, he would deliberately design for the most timid to go.
This individual activity of serving food was not targeted yet. It could be randomly selected from the team. There would be targeted individual missions later on. That would be an exciting time.
Cheng Yi wanted to retreat, but Shen Qiuyu had already sneered and said, “You were just recommending yourself, but you were scared when you heard that it was a solo mission. So you were just saying it, and you didn’t want to help the team clear it. Coward.”
Cheng Yi was so angry that her face changed color. She looked at He Jing again and clenched her fists.
NO!
She couldn’t retreat!
This was a rare opportunity for her to perform. She had to do something to change everyone’s opinion. Otherwise, He Jing would always be in everyone’s sights.
Isn’t it just a solo mission? So be it!
Cheng Yi gritted her teeth and closed her eyes. “I’ll go. I can do it.”
“Xiao Yi, don’t show off!” He Zhou was also anxious.
Shen Qiuyu just wanted to see her make a fool of herself. There was no need for her to fall for her trick.
Cheng Yi gripped her skirt tightly and said firmly, “No, Third Brother, I’m not afraid. Sister He Jing is right. All ghosts and monsters are feudal superstitions.
As long as you think like this, you won’t be afraid.”
“Xiao Yi, you don’t have to compete with He Jing.” He Ning also frowned.
Jing was not afraid, but she looked like she was pretending.
Cheng Yi denied it and deliberately rebuked, “Second Brother, don’t you believe me? I’m not competing with Sister He Jing.”
He Yi and He Chen looked at each other and saw the worry in each other’s eyes.
Wu Yu said, “If she wants to go, let her go. The kitchen is just a few steps away from the living room. Nothing will happen.”
That was true.
It was not appropriate to take Cheng Yi’s life just by walking a few steps. Everyone stopped talking. He Ning passed the flashlight to Cheng Yi. Cheng Yi endured the fear in her heart and walked step by step toward the kitchen with the flashlight.
The entire secret room was made of stone, and the temperature was very cold. As soon as she left the crowd, she could feel the cold air surrounding her from all directions, especially her exposed neck and legs. It was as if someone was breathing.
Goosebumps rose all over her arm, but it didn’t work even if she rubbed it with her other hand.
Cheng Yi couldn’t help but regret it. She shouldn’t have worn a dress today. Instead. she had worn Dants so that she wouldn’t suffocate from the cold.
When she finally walked into the kitchen, she realized that there was only a cabinet and a stove in the kitchen. There were a few things on the stove.
There were also things in the cabinet, such as noodles, buns, and braised pork with preserved vegetables on the stove. There were more than ten items in total.
How was she supposed to find which dishes were to be served on the wedding table? The secret room broadcast didn’t seem to have reported it either!
Forget it, let’s get out first!
So, Cheng Yi picked up a plate of buns on the stove and walked out.
She turned around and saw a female ghost in white standing in front of her. She was so close that her face was almost touching hers..
