    The interior lights came on, and the scene inside the room was slowly presented before Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen’s eyes.

     

    Unexpectedly, the space before Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen’s eyes was much smaller than imagined.

     

    The first few units were all transformed into a large study, a large kitchen, etc., and they could immediately get the full view from the doorway.

     

    However, this sixth door, which was most likely Ye Tian’s room, was covered by a white gauze curtain to the left and right.

     

    From where Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen were standing, the only thing they could see was the scene directly in front of them.

     

    Before them was a brownish-red coffee table made of wood.

     

    It was also in a retro-rustic style. The furniture inside the previous rooms was in the same style, so there was no doubt that this coffee table was also a replica from the old Ye family mansion.

     

    The coffee table was placed in the middle of the room. The left and right areas were empty, and there were only two identical Barbie dolls in the middle.

     

    They had long black hair, and wore pink princess dresses. The two Barbie dolls were holding a small music box in their hands.

     

    At this time, the barbie dolls were sitting side by side on the coffee table. They were facing the direction of the door, and their huge eyes were staring straight at Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen who were at the doorway. The bright red mouths were slightly hooked, as if the two dolls had been waiting for Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen for a long time.

     

    Ji Mingxia’s eyes met the Barbie dolls’ eyes, only to feel a cold sweat and a chill down his spine.

     

    “Was this also in your home…… previously?” Ji Mingxia could not help but ask.

     

    Currently, five doors had been opened, and the layout of the Ye family’s old mansion gave off nothing but retro luxury.

     

    But these two Barbie dolls made him change his thinking. 

     

    If these two eerie Barbie dolls were at the Ye family mansion back then, then it wouldn’t be a surprise that they were being haunted today.

     

    Ye Chen did not answer Ji Mingxia’s question. As soon as he saw the two dolls, he took a step back and suddenly gasped as if he had been stimulated.

     

    “What’s wrong with you?” Ji Mingxia quickly asked.

     

    Ye Chen looked at the Barbie dolls, then looked at Ji Mingxia, and a drop of sweat slowly flowed down along the corner of his forehead. Ye Chen said in a hoarse voice: “I seem to recall …… this scene, and when it was from.”

     

    “Isn’t this the old Ye family mansion from ten years ago?” Ji Mingxia said what Ye Chen had told him earlier.

     

    “It is more than ten years ago …… these two dolls were birthday gifts…” Ye Chen said. The more he talked, the more pale his face became, as if he remembered something horrible.

     

    With a “ta”, the music box between the two Barbie dolls suddenly opened itself.

     

    After a few crisp “Kakaka” sounds, the music box began to play music. It was a simple happy birthday song.

     

    Although the music box in the dolls' hands was small, it seemed particularly loud in the silent room.

     

    The music reverberated throughout the dormitory building. The sounds that were usually lively and jovial at normal times were not pleasant and reassuring on such a night. On the contrary, it sounded eerie and scary.

     

    Ji Mingxia had a bad feeling and he took a step back. He looked around and started looking for a way out in advance.

     

    On the other hand, Ye Chen was the opposite of Ji Mingxia.

     

    When he heard the happy birthday song, Ye Chen’s eyes instantly red and he whispered: “I seem to …… remember something…that day more than ten years ago, I was supposed to have two sisters ……”

     

    Two sisters?

     

    Ji Mingxia was shocked.

     

    What did this mean, literally two sisters, or two Ye Tians?

     

    At this moment, a thin laughing sound suddenly came out from within the room.

     

    In the next instant, a head suddenly peeked out from behind the gauze curtain.

     

    Ye Tian’s long black hair was draped in front of her body, and in stark contrast to her black hair was her overly white face.

     

    She cracked the corners of her mouth and looked at Ye Chen with a smile, calling out, “Brother.”

     

    “Ye Tian?” Ye Chen was startled when he suddenly saw a figure pop up, but after seeing that it was Ye Tian’s, he managed to calm down a bit.

     

    “Why have you only come now? I’ve been waiting for you for a long, long time.” Ye Tian’s body was hidden behind the gauze curtain, and only her head was exposed. She said to Ye Chen coquettishly, “Come in quickly.”

     

    However, Ye Chen didn’t dare to accept Ye Tian’s invitation. He couldn’t help but ask, “Ye Tian, when did you wake up ……Where is Mom and Dad? How about Uncle Zhang and the others?”

     

    “I’m celebrating my birthday ah, they are all sitting inside, there was only you left.” Ye Tian laughed.

     

    The tone of her voice was a bit strange, like she was answering Ye Chen, and like she was mumbling to herself.

     

    Her big black eyes were staring straight at Ye Chen, and the smile at the corner of her mouth was always kept at an arc.

     

    At first glance, the smile looked cordial and sweet, but after looking at it for a long time, it gradually became a little scary.

     

    Especially in this environment. The more brilliantly Ye Tian smiled, the more eerie and strange it seemed. 

     

    Ye Chen seemed to be in chaos. He can feel that something was not right with Ye Tian, but he couldn’t help but care about the safety of the family: “Your birthday? Today is not your birthday ……”

     

    “Today is my birthday.” Ye Tian stressed. On seeing Ye Chen hesitant to come in, Ye Tian invited him again. “Brother, don’t you like me? Don’t you want to attend my birthday party?”

     

    “I ……”

     

    “Brother, come in quickly, it’s just you left.” Ye Tian urged again.

     

    Although Ye Chen was confused, he had not lost his mind. The more Ye Tian urged, the more Ye Chen stood still, not daring to move.

     

    Ji Mingxia, who was behind him, felt like the temperature around him was getting lower. The cool air seemed to be able to penetrate his bones, making his limbs numb.

     

    Ji Mingxia felt as if his body cells were screaming, 'this is very dangerous, hurry up and get out of here.’

     

    However, he had experienced several life and death situations, so without further delay, stood behind Ye Chen and whispered: “Ye Chen, let’s get out of here.”Ye Chen heard the words and turned to look back at Ji Mingxia.

     

    Before he could see Ji Mingxia, Ye Chen suddenly felt that something was wrong, and hurriedly turned his head back to the front. Ye Tian, who was smiling and looking at him a moment ago, suddenly had a change in expression the moment she heard Ji Mingxia speak.

     

    Like the eyes of a glass doll, her eyes moved mechanically, and her gaze coldly locked on Ji Mingxia.

     

    The corners of her mouth, which had been raised, had fallen at some point. Ye Tian opened her dark eyes and stared at Ji Mingxia expressionlessly.

     

    Ye Chen was startled by Ye Tian’s change. This was the face of his younger sister, he’d seen her grow up from childhood.

     

    Ji Mingxia, who was being stared at, felt more chills. Without further hesitation, he directly pulled Ye Chen, turned around and ran: “Lets go!”

     

    Ye Chen staggered a bit and his movements were slightly slowed by half a beat.

     

    Because of this, Ye Chen didn't retrieve his gaze quickly and immediately saw a horrifying scene.

     

    When Ye Tian saw Ji Mingxia pull Ye Chen away, she immediately rushed out from behind the gauze curtain.

     

    The gauze curtain was lifted, and the scene that had been hidden behind it was instantly exposed.

     

    The interior decoration was exactly the same as the living room of the old Ye family mansion.

     

    Beige wallpaper, the wall hung with famous paintings, and a brown leather sofa on top of a light colored carpet.

     

    At this moment, there were seven figures sitting on the sofa.

     

    They were Ye Chen’s parents, Uncle Zhang the butler, and the four bodyguards.

     

    They were sitting mechanically and stiffly on the sofa, wearing the birthday hats on their heads.

     

    And in the center of them was a tied up person.

     

    That person was ……

     

    When Ye Chen saw the person in the center, his pupils shrank, and his scalp was about to explode.

     

    Many years ago, when Ye Tian was a year old, they held a birthday party for her.

     

    At that time, the Ye family had not yet made a fortune. Aside from this mansion handed down from their ancestors, the Ye family had nothing. The family prepared a low-key party, and only invited Ding Jialin's family to celebrate.

     

    Father Ye, Mother Ye, Ye Chen, Ye Tian and Ding Jialin’s family, all sat in a circle. The cake was put in the middle of the seven people, and they all held up the knife to cut the cake and share the joy with each other.

     

    It's been so many years and Ye Chen had already forgotten this scene. It wasn’t until this moment when he saw the nearly identical scene that this memory came back to him.

     

    However, the scene in front of him was countless times more horrifying than the warm scene in memory.

     

    Seven people were sitting on the sofas in a circle. Back then, they held up a knife to cut a small cake, but at this moment, instead of a cake, there was a tied up person!

     

    It was none other than the Hong Kong master that the Ye family parents invited!

     

    He was tied up with ropes, his body had been stabbed and had several bloody holes. Blood snaked down his body and stained the carpet. The master’s eyes were closed and it was unknown as to whether he was dead or alive.

     

    In addition, the seven people present were in a strange state.

     

    Their hands and body were all red. Ye Chen hurriedly glanced over, only to see that the room was full of dripping blood, as if there was a massacre.

     

    “Ye Chen!” Ji Mingxia saw Ye Chen getting dazed at such a critical moment and he pulled him fiercely.

     

    Ye Chen sucked in a breath and sluggishly came back to his senses. He then looked at Ji Mingxia blankly.

     

    “Come on!” Ji Mingxia shouted.

     

    Ye Chen calmed down, and finally reacted. Ye Tian had already caught up, and if not for Ji Mingxia dragging him to run, Ye Tian would have already caught him.

     

    Although they were lucky to escape, the two people were not out of danger.

     

    After leaving that door, the light source was lost and they were surrounded by darkness. The light from the flashlight was flickering, and Ye Tian was following closely behind, pouncing on Ji Mingxia and Ye Chen at any time.

     

    “Mingxia.” Ye Chen said, “She wants me. Let me go back with her and you find the opportunity to run.”

     

    “You will die if you go back!” Ji Mingxia quickly responded.

     

    Ji Mingxia also saw the scene behind the gauze curtain. In addition, his eyesight was better than the average person so he was able to see a little more.

     

    Not only the master who was treated as a cake was covered in blood, everyone present was stabbed and had several holes in their bodies.

     

    It was clear that Ye Tian, who was chasing after them, didn’t harbor good intentions. If Ye Chen went back with her, Ji Mingxia estimated that he would see Ye Chen’s corpse tomorrow.

     

    “But, the two of us can’t escape.” Ye Chen said.

     

    It was dark all around, there was no stairway and no exit.

     

    They were trapped in this darkness, and were just fumbling around.

     

    Ji Mingxia gritted his teeth and ran wildly with a flashlight. He looked at the foggy darkness and said through clenched teeth, “Let's go to the elevator.”

     

    “Elevator?” Ye Chen was startled, “Isn’t the elevator……”

     

    The two bodyguards disappeared at the elevator, and appeared in the room. This meant that it was Ye Tian who captured them, so the elevator was obviously not a safe place.

     

    “That was the first floor elevator, we are now on the third floor ……” Ji Mingxia whispered.

     

    The most important thing was that the person chasing them at this moment was Ye Tian.

     

    Ji Mingxia still remembered that the first time he and Ye Tian met was in the elevator. Ye Tian was trapped by ghosts, and almost failed to get out.

     

    Since then, Ye Tian had a slight psychological shadow towards elevators.

     

    Although there are certain risks in entering the elevator, Ji Mingxia guessed that this was the only way out!
