“What are you looking for?” Feng Qing asked.
“A ghost.”
Feng Qing followed her, searching the long corridor, but they couldn’t see a single ghost.
“The lights are too bright, the ghost shouldn’t be coming out, right?”
Just as Feng Qing finished speaking, the wall lamps on both sides suddenly went out.
At that moment, Bei Yutang heard Li Mengmeng’s terrified scream behind her.
“Ghost…ghost!”
Bei Yutang immediately turned around, turned on her flashlight, and shone it toward Li Mengmeng. She saw Li Mengmeng pointing out the window, her face filled with terror.
Bei Yutang immediately ran toward Li Mengmeng, but by the time she arrived, there was nothing outside the window.
“You just saw a ghost again?” Bei Yutang asked.
Li Mengmeng was too frightened to speak.
Dr. Zhang, standing nearby, said, “Yes. The instant the lights went out, we saw a light outside the window, and instinctively looked over, and saw that white figure.”
“The white figure we saw earlier?”
“Yes.”
Li Mengmeng said, somewhat agitated, “Let’s get out of this ghostly place quickly. I don’t want to stay here for even a minute longer.”
Seeing this, Bei Yutang said to Dr. Zhang, “You take her out of the East Hall. I’ll be fine here alone.”
“I’ll stay with you.” Feng Qing said.
“No need, I’m fine here alone.”
As they spoke, the wall lamps turned on again. Bei Yutang looked at the wall lamps on both sides. This flickering operation must be controlled by a switch; otherwise, she would never believe that each time they turned on and off was so timely.
“Forget it. Let’s go back.” Bei Yutang suddenly decided not to stay.
The group returned to the West Hall.
Feng Qing went straight to the dining room and began to eat. However, the three of them, including Doctor Zhang, had no appetite whatsoever. After what had happened, they had no appetite whatsoever.
Only Bei Yutang and Feng Qing ate at the table.
Li Mengmeng watched the two people eating happily, and resentment welled up inside her.
At a time like this, these two people still had the appetite to eat.
Birds of a feather flock together; this saying is absolutely true.
Li Mengmeng couldn’t help but speak up, “At a time like this, why are you two still eating?”
Bei Yutang calmly replied, “Precisely because it’s a time like this, we should eat. If we don’t eat, we’ll be powerless when danger comes, and without strength, we’ll be nothing but fish on someone else’s chopping board.”
“You…” Li Mengmeng was furious.
“I can’t argue with you.”
Feng Qing scoffed, “It’s not that you can’t argue with her; it’s that she’s always right.”
Li Mengmeng glared hatefully at Feng Qing. The memory of him threatening to beat her was still vivid in her mind, making her afraid to be disrespectful in front of him. After glaring at him, she still felt unsatisfied and glared hatefully at Bei Yutang.
Dr. Zhang stood up, walked into the dining room, picked up his chopsticks, and began to eat.
Yan Jin also stood up and went to the dining room.
Seeing that the two of them had gone over and left her alone, Li Mengmeng was so angry that her heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys ached, and she felt like her head was about to explode.
“Would you like something?” Bei Yutang asked with a smile, looking at the person standing at the door.
Li Mengmeng’s initial thought of going over to eat vanished the moment she spoke.
“No, thank you. I’m full.”
Li Mengmeng’s stomach rumbled as soon as she finished speaking.
