Chapter 20

After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.

Li You, who was sharing a room with Yi Tiantian, had just received a long message from his father.

In short, he admitted that he indeed had a daughter.

In other words, Li You had a half-sibling!

So Li You hurriedly sent Shi Zhongzhong's photo to his father, and the reply was: an eighty percent match.

He then sent a message to Shi Zhongzhong, receiving a similar response from her mother.

It seemed that the relationship between them was almost confirmed.

Shi Zhongzhong: Since it's like this, let's pretend we were never together.

Li You: Okay.

Both of them had been acting strange over the past two days, making their exchanges somewhat awkward.

Li You sighed deeply, put down his phone, and suddenly remembered Yi Tiantian saying that Shi Zhongzhong would meet her cheating partner tonight!

Li You couldn't help but feel furious.

Now the relationship with his sister was definitely over, and he couldn't afford to lose her either!

Li You decided to catch the cheater with Yi Tiantian tonight!

On this moonless night, the evening at Mount Li was cold and desolate, with only the low hum of insects around the darkened wooden cabin.

The guests, who should have been asleep, were each preoccupied with their own thoughts.

Shi Zhongzhong tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Although she had decided not to go out tonight, she still feared something might happen.

At that moment, her phone screen lit up in the darkness.

It was a message from her cheating partner.

Cheating Partner: Honey, can you transfer the investment for this month?

Shi Zhongzhong: Does your company need so much money?

Cheating Partner replied: Didn't I say my company is just starting and needs a lot of cash flow... Honey, don't you trust me?

Shi Zhongzhong replied: I do, but I really don't have enough money.

Cheating Partner: Well, looks like you don't love me enough.

Cheating Partner: Don't talk to me anymore. Your brother keeps begging me to stay with him; I'll ask him for the money instead!

Shi Zhongzhong: Are you leaving me??

Shi Zhongzhong: [Transferred 150,000 RMB]

Shi Zhongzhong: Say something!!

Seeing no response, Shi Zhongzhong, who had been lying down, immediately sat up and rushed out of the room without thinking twice.

She arrived at the door of Ju Xue and Wang Dachui's room and knocked loudly, shouting, "I'm telling the truth! Please..."

Inside, Ju Xue and Wang Dachui were both awake. When Wang Dachui opened the door, three pairs of eyes met each other.

Just as she shouted, Shi Zhongzhong suddenly came to her senses.

If she continued like this, everyone would eventually find out about her affair!

So Yi Tiantian's prediction would come true again!

Meanwhile, Yi Tiantian sprang up from bed.

"What was that noise? Could they have already met?!"

"Put on my little jacket and rush to the scene!"

Li You played with his phone, pretending not to care, but he was actually hoping Yi Tiantian would leave soon so he could follow her.

He had clearly heard Shi Zhongzhong's scream and was eager to know what had happened.

When Li You stepped out, he realized there was no need to be cautious, as everyone had been drawn out by Shi Zhongzhong's scream.

Yi Tiantian saw Fei Cheng, the actor, wearing a satin silk pajama set, his hair slightly disheveled from just waking up, causing her heart to flutter briefly due to his good looks.

But it was only for a moment before her attention was drawn to the disheveled Shi Zhongzhong.

Shi Zhongzhong, who had been energetic and shouting moments ago, now looked pale and weak, saying, "I don't know what just happened..."

Wang Dachui's expression was even more peculiar, whispering in a hushed tone, "Is this place haunted? It's definitely not clean!"

As if to confirm Wang Dachui's words, a chilling wind howled, causing the wooden doors to creak.

Wang Dachui shivered, looking like a bitter gourd.

Ju Xue stood nearby, appearing shorter in his slippers, his face expressionless.

Li You, however, felt relieved since he didn't see the expected scene.

"Haunted? I think it's just that the people here have ghosts in their hearts, so they see ghosts everywhere!"

"Does Shi Zhongzhong think she can get rid of the suspicion of meeting her lover by pretending to be a ghost? She was shouting in front of Ju Xue and Wang Dachui's room, probably because she had another fight with her lover and came looking for trouble!"

"Unfortunately, we still couldn't see who the lover is..."

Yi Tiantian's curiosity grew even stronger.

.

After last night's commotion, everyone woke up very late the next day.

Due to the haunting incident being witnessed live by the audience, the online discussion about "Special Forces Operation!" skyrocketed.

The surveillance footage from that segment went viral and trended on social media.

Blue Ocean: This is really outrageous! I hope Sister Zhongzhong is safe!

Digital Clown: But I think it might just be for show. Look at how fast Yi Tiantian ran out; I wasn't even that fast when grabbing food in high school, hahaha!

In the surveillance footage, almost seconds after Shi Zhongzhong came out, Yi Tiantian dashed out like a lightning bolt, as agile as a little dog.

Coco: Am I the only one who thinks Yi Tiantian looks kind of cute doing that, hahaha!!!

Pink Headphones: +1+1!

Li You was scrolling through the comments when a message popped up on his phone.

Lover: Honey, can you transfer this month's investment?

Li You hesitated for a moment before replying: I'm broke.

Lover: You just got money from several endorsements, how could you not have any? Honey, don't you trust me?

Li You: I've invested everything in other projects; I really don't have much cash left.

Lover: If that's what you say, then don't blame me for being with your sister instead. After all, she likes me so much! She'll help me no matter what I do!

Seeing the person on the other end threatening to leave him, Li You panicked.

At that moment, Director Xiao Chen called for the guests to gather, and Li You immediately transferred 100,000 yuan.

As soon as the lover received the money, the guests gathered together again.

Director Xiao Chen: "Good morning, everyone. Today is the second day of our trip, and we have an interesting task related to our mountain!"

"I bet we're going mushroom picking!" Yi Tiantian raised her hand and answered, "It rained last night!"

"That's right! Today we're going mushroom picking on the mountain!" announced Director Xiao Chen.

After preparing, the guests set off towards the lush greenery of Mount Li after the rain.

Walking along the mountain path, Yi Tiantian started spilling more secrets.

"Gambling ruins lives!"

[Shi Zhongzhong and Li You's lover is a gambling addict. All their earnings so far have been used for gambling, and when he loses, he tricks others into giving him money under the guise of "investment," especially taking advantage of the two fools, Shi Zhongzhong and Li You, who are fooled time and time again!]

"The lover eventually squandered all the hard-earned money of these siblings. After killing both of them, the lover unexpectedly won the final gamble and retired, moving abroad. Thus, only the siblings were left hurt in this world!"

"I need to find a chance to warn them to turn back before it's too late..."
