Zong Luo and Xiao Ruoli's room was on the second floor, the two walked quickly through the corridor, went down the stairs to the courtyard, and then looked back, only to see the lights in the room flickering on and off, Xiao Ruoli was even more afraid.
She was trembling all over, and she couldn't help but hold Zong Luo's hand tighter.
Zong Luo also shook Xiao Ruoli's hand back, pulled her into his arms, took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders, and comforted her softly, "Don't be afraid, it must be Henry's prank." β
There was still a long way to walk from here to the dining room, and neither of them spoke again on the way, and after ten minutes, the two finally arrived at the living room.
When the two entered the room, they saw the old butler napping in his chair, and Henry had already left.
Zong Luo went over and gently woke up the housekeeper and asked him where Henry had gone?
The old butler opened his eyes blankly, and was a little puzzled when he saw the two of them coming in.
Zong Luo asked again about Henry's whereabouts.
The old butler understood a little, asked the two to sit down quickly, and asked them what had happened.
Zong slightly succinctly talked about what they had just encountered.
Only then did the old butler come to his senses, and he was relieved to see that the two of them were still holding the lantern he had just handed them in their hands.
"Don't panic, you two, this is the norm in the castle, I didn't tell you just now, I'm afraid you'll be afraid."
Xiao Ruoli asked helplessly, "What the hell is going on?" β
"This castle was formerly the residence of a duke. The duke had fought in World War II.
I heard that he trained a very brave squad, but unfortunately the squad was wiped out in order to cover him during the war.
In order to commemorate this team, after returning home after the battle, the duke asked the dementor to seal all the souls of the team in this castle.
So sometimes the spirit of this squad will haunt at night, and some of the guests staying overnight can hear it, some can't, and it is also a kind of fate to be able to hear it, so you don't have to be afraid. β
"As long as you keep this lantern nearby, you won't hear any more sounds."
Zong Luo and Xiao Ruoli glanced at each other, and only then did they understand a little, but this kind of thing is too unbelievable, right? Isn't the 21st century the world of science? Why is such an incredible thing happening?
"Let's go rest, it's not too early."
Xiao Ruoli actually accepted the old housekeeper's explanation, but she couldn't live here anymore anyway, it was really terrible. She looked at Zong Luo inquiringly.
"I'm sorry butler, my fiancΓ©e is a little timid, although a little presumptuous, but we have to go back to the hotel tonight."
The old housekeeper looked at Zong Luo and Xiao Ruoli with some puzzlement, when he was asked to prepare two rooms before, he didn't understand why he didn't live together since he was already an unmarried couple?
The housekeeper directly asked his doubts, since the two of them are ready to get married, why are they so conservative?
Xiao Ruoli lowered his head a little embarrassed.
Zong Luo showed his unquestionable majesty: "I'm sorry, this is an Eastern tradition, we are leaving tonight." β
The old butler nodded thoughtfully and let them take care of themselves. He'll explain it to Henry tomorrow.
Zong Luo took out his mobile phone and dialed his bodyguard, and half an hour later, the car that came to pick them up stopped at the gate of the castle.
After saying goodbye to the butler, the two got in the car and left the eerie castle.
After getting in the car, Xiao Ruoli came back to her senses a little, she was really nervous just now, and now she realized that Zong Luo's coat was still draped on herself.
She hurriedly took off her coat and gave it to Zong Luo and thanked her softly.
"Don't be so polite, we are now an unmarried couple and will spend a long time together in the future. I take care of you as a matter of course, you have to get used to it. β
Hearing Zong Luo's words, Xiao Ruoli suddenly felt that this feeling was too familiar, this way of speaking, she seemed to have seen it somewhere, but she really couldn't remember it.
Seeing that Xiao Ruoli didn't speak, just looked at himself in a daze, Zong Luo was a little strange.
Zong Luo was in the entertainment industry in his previous life, and he didn't know how many female stars he had seen, and how many people wanted to have a relationship with him.
In addition to female stars, I have also seen many female fans. They all tried their best to talk to themselves.
Zong Luo has always been very cheerful and sunny, very kind, and he has a lot of experience in getting along with girls.
But his intuition told him that the girl in front of him was completely different from what he had met before.
She looks beautiful on the outside, but her personality is introverted, even a little timid, her etiquette is very thorough, and her family background is extraordinary, but she looks like she is indisputable, as if she doesn't care about anything.
Zong Luo observed Xiao Ruoli carefully, her eyes seemed to see someone through herself, although her eyes fell on herself, but her mind was already far away.
Xiao Ruo was stunned for a while and realized that he had lost his temper, and quickly apologized to Zong Luo.
"Thank you just now, I didn't expect to encounter such a thing, it's really a big world, there are no wonders!"
"yes, it's a pleasure to experience such a magical thing together." Zong Luo replied with a smile.
"Well, but it's been a scary experience. I still don't believe that there really are ghosts and gods in this world? Do you believe it? β
Hearing Xiao Ruoli's question, Zong Luo smiled and nodded, and he said in his heart Of course I believe it, there should be no one in this world who believes it more than me.
"Really? Why would you believe it? Have you seen it? β
Xiao Ruoli was aroused by Zong Luo's unhesitating attitude, why was Zong Luo so sure?
"I can't say a lot of things, but I just believe that I think many things are destined in the dark."
"For example?" Xiao Ruoli asked.
"You'll find out later." Zong Luo didn't want to say more on this topic, he was usually a very serious and cold image. In front of Xiao Ruoli, a person he was not very familiar with, he wanted to be as consistent as possible with Zong Luo's own character.
After this inexplicable night, Zong Luo and Xiao Ruoli seem to have a little bit more understanding of each other.
Although everyone was frightened, Seon knew that he was not blessed.
When they got up the next day, Xiao Ruoli and Zong Luo were already able to greet each other more naturally, and began to discuss the afternoon route.
Xiao Ruoli is going to take his people back to Beijing on the plane of Zong Luo's family this time.
And the plane of the Zongluo family went for routine maintenance, and it could only fly to Paris at night.
They plan to spend half a day in the afternoon walking around Paris, which can be regarded as a way to enhance the relationship between the two.
Paris means a lot to both of them, and it's good to travel together once.
