The Bathroom Mirror Is Strange

In response to Li Mengyao and Lin Yue.

There was only deathly silence behind the door.

"How could this be..."

Li Mengyao was getting anxious and tried to turn the handle, but she couldn't.

Lin Yue was somewhat flustered: "Senior has S-level talent, she's so amazing, how could something have happened to her..."

"Get out of the way."

Chen Yu had arrived at the door at some point and kicked the lock hard!

"Bang—Crack!"

Ten times the power of an adult!

The old-fashioned door lock snapped open, and the door panel slammed open!

A mixture of moisture and cool fragrance wafted out!

Chen Yu's gaze swept across the bathroom interior...

Shen Qingci collapsed onto the tiled floor, leaning against the edge of the bathtub. Her long, wet, black hair clung messily to her cheeks and neck, with water still dripping from the ends.

She was wearing a beige silk slip dress, which clung tightly to her body after being soaked in water, clearly outlining every curve of her body, with her thighs exposed.

I guess she had just finished getting dressed, and then something happened...

Chen Yu stepped in, squatted down, and quickly placed his fingers on her carotid artery.

The pulse is rapid and the body temperature is low.

"Senior? Senior?"

He spoke in a deep voice.

Shen Qingci's eyelashes trembled a few times before she finally opened her eyes, her pupils dilating for a moment before focusing.

When he saw that it was Chen Yu in front of him, he realized something and immediately tried to raise his hand to cover his clothes, but he didn't even have the strength to raise his hand, and he couldn't get up.

Without asking any further questions, Chen Yu picked her up and carried her horizontally.

"Mirror."

Shen Qingci leaned against him, her voice trembling, her eyes filled with fear as she glanced at the hazy mirror.

"understood."

Chen Yu carried her, turned and walked out of the bathroom. He instructed Li Mengyao, who was standing there dumbfounded, "Keep an eye on her. Everyone, don't go near the mirror yet."

After saying that, Chen Yu placed Shen Qingci on the sofa in the living room.

Then he unfolded a thick blanket and wrapped it around her cold body.

"call..."

Shen Qingci's wet hair clung to her cheeks, her small face tilted slightly upwards, her wet eyelashes trembling.

She gripped the corner of the blanket tightly, her eyes fixed on Chen Yu's movements, lost in thought.

Chen Yu's face collided with hers as she looked up.

That glance caught him completely off guard.

Chen Yu had seen her calm and composed, and she had seen her elegant and aloof demeanor.

It was the first time I had seen my senior, and she looked so broken.

Li Mengyao said with some worry, "Chen Yu, if it's not working, just break the mirror!"

Chen Yu was slightly taken aback and coughed.

Lin Yue nodded: "Yes! Smash it...so it can never hurt anyone again..."

Chen Yu turned around and shook his head: "Do you all remember that male voice that echoed in everyone's heads when we first stepped into this villa?"

Li Mengyao and Lin Yue were both stunned and tried hard to recall.

Last night was so terrifying, the opening remarks... my memory of them is already blurry.

Shen Qingci wrapped the blanket tighter around herself and whispered, "I hid under the bed, I hid in the closet, I hid in the bathroom..."

Upon hearing this, Li Mengyao gasped, her eyes widening: "You mean, the rules for tomorrow's third night are very likely related to the bathroom?"

Lin Yue covered her mouth in fright: "Could it be that mirror?"

Chen Yu nodded: "If we destroy the mirror now, and then need it tomorrow, I don't want to bear the consequences of failing the mission..."

He saw that the three women were all deep in thought, and he figured they wouldn't be able to sleep well tonight.

But he couldn't care less about that.

"Senior Sister Shen."

Chen Yu looked at the sofa and said righteously, "You've been frightened, so you'll sleep in the inner room with me tonight so we can take care of each other."

Shen Qingci was taken aback upon hearing this, and a blush instantly rose to her cheeks.

Before she could respond, Chen Yu turned to the other two: "Li Mengyao, Lin Yue, you two are responsible for keeping watch in the living room, focusing on the bathroom, but whatever you do, don't go in..."

Li Mengyao's eyes widened suddenly: "Huh? W-why are we the two of us guarding the living room?"

Her face was full of reluctance!

Lin Yue shrank back in fright, saying, "I'm scared too..."

Shen Qingci whispered, "Junior Chen Yu, I'm S-rank, I can actually..."

"You almost died just now."

Chen Yu interrupted her, speaking coldly, "Li Mengyao, are you doubting my decision?"

"I told you, as long as you keep a close eye on the bathroom and don't go in, everything will be fine."

Li Mengyao opened her mouth, looked at the dark bathroom, then at Chen Yu, but ultimately swallowed her protest and reluctantly said "Oh".

As an ex-girlfriend.

He's utterly pathetic.

Li Mengyao was almost in tears.

She felt too insignificant, but there was nothing she could do.

If there were a pill to undo regrets, she'd want to eat it...

Shen Qing looked away, her blush still lingering, and did not refute further.

She got up as instructed, the blanket revealing large patches of skin as she walked, both alluring and awkward in the dim light.

She walked barefoot on the ground, following closely behind Chen Yu, into the bedroom.

As their figures disappeared into the bedroom.

Li Mengyao plopped down on the sofa, hugged a cushion, rested her chin on it, pouted, and her face clearly showed her displeasure.

Lin Yue timidly moved to sit next to her and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Mengyao...isn't Chen Yu your boyfriend? Why won't you come in?"

Li Mengyao was already annoyed, and her voice was muffled: "Don't ask anymore..."

Lin Yue said "Oh," and lowered her head, looking pitiful.

Li Mengyao caught a glimpse of her expression out of the corner of her eye and sighed, "Fine, it doesn't matter if I tell you. He and I broke up before the apocalypse..."

"real!"

Lin Yue suddenly raised her head, and her usually timid big eyes instantly became surprisingly bright!

Li Mengyao: "?"

The next second, Lin Yue quickly lowered her eyes: "I'm sorry, Mengyao, I was just too surprised..."

Li Mengyao narrowed her eyes, seemingly trying to see through Lin Yue, but she couldn't.

"snort."

"I will definitely get Chen Yu back!"

As she spoke, she was completely unaware of the look Lin Yue was giving her...

Separated by a wall, inside the bedroom.

The lights were off, and the light was dim, with only the faint blue moonlight shining in from outside the window.

On the large bed, Shen Qingci sat leaning against the headboard.

The blanket wrapped her tightly, revealing only a small section of her collarbone.

She hugged her knees, still not fully recovered.

Chen Yu sat on the other side of the bed, a person's distance away from her.

"Can you tell me now?"

"What exactly happened?"

Chen Yu turned his head to look at the senior student beside him, feeling slightly hot.

He knew that thinking about these things while people were still in shock was a bit reckless.

But the woman beside her was Shen Qingci.

Before that doomsday, posters covered subway stations, and Ni Ni was hailed as the dream girl of countless people. On screen, she was always elegant and poised, seemingly untouched by worldly concerns.

That star senior from Haicheng Film Academy, an assistant director, and the object of countless boys' fantasies.

At this moment, all her glory has faded.

Exposed to dim light and shadow.

The stimulation from this contrast is irresistible to any man.

Shen Qingci gathered her thoughts and recalled, "I had just finished showering and was drying my hair with a towel. The bathroom was full of fog, and the mirror was very blurry."

"But out of the corner of my eye, I noticed... something was wrong..."

"Something's not right?"

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes and pressed further, "What exactly is wrong?"
