Chapter 98

Zhu Rui was calmer than Xia Xiaoxiao. He listened carefully and felt that the strange sound seemed to be coming from a human being. But the night was dark, the weather was cold, and it looked like there were overgrown weeds, and there would be no people there.

You're so bored that you hide there and act like a ghost, right?

Is it probably the sound made by the cold wind?

Zhu Rui didn't have time to think about it, Xiao Xiao's face turned pale with fright, so he had to take Xiao Xiao back first.

When we returned to the B&B, the lights in the kitchen were darkened. It seemed that Lin Yue had finally finished cleaning up.

Let’s talk to Lin Yue about this tomorrow, Zhu Rui thought.

However, when Xia Xiaoxiao returned to the B&B, she immediately released her hold on his hand and went upstairs, waving goodbye to him: "See you tomorrow!"

The corners of Zhu Rui's mouth twitched. Could it be that Hu Mengmeng looked more secure than him?

Feeling extremely frustrated, Zhu Rui immediately knocked on Qi Xing's door.

After a while, Qi Xing opened the door expressionlessly.

Qi Xing's hair was still dripping with water, he had a towel on his shoulders and was wearing pajamas.

"You have something important to do at the end." Qi Xing said, seeing the traces of lipstick on Zhu Rui's mouth, "If you are here to show off, I advise you to be kind."

Zhu Rui was confused: "Little Xingxing, I think your anger is very strong."

Qi Xing makes a closed door gesture.

"Hey, hey, I really didn't come here to show off. Just now, when Xiaoxiao and I were outside, we suddenly heard the sound of a wolf. You said that although Linyue Town is remote, there are no wolves.

Right? I listened carefully and felt like someone was causing trouble... Or maybe I heard it wrong. The wind outside was too strong and it sounded like a wolf howling."

Qi Xing's brows furrowed.

"Come in." He turned around and wiped his hair with a towel.

Zhu Rui closed the door and turned around to see Qi Xing sitting on the sofa, his face a little solemn.

He then smiled and said: "Little Xingxing, are you still afraid of wolves?"

Qi Xing raised his eyes and looked at him: "Last night you had diarrhea, Lin Yue went to the backyard to pick leaves, and someone was outside the barbed wire fence, pretending to be a ghost and calling her name."

"Ah!" Zhu Rui was shocked.

In the middle of the night, Lin Yue, a girl, must have been frightened.

"Did an acquaintance commit the crime?" Zhu Rui couldn't help but guess.

"We don't know yet," Qi Xing said, "but one thing is for sure. Last night he called Lin Yue's name, and tonight he saw you howling like a wolf again. He probably wanted to scare you away and disturb the hotel.

Business."

Such things are very common.

Zhu Rui's expression also became more formal: "What should we do?"

Qi Xing looked at his right hand and said slowly: "Catch ghosts tonight."

Zhu Rui became excited: "If you call Jin Zi, he will be very happy."

If the two had not maintained their friendship for more than 20 years, Zhu Rui would have regarded him as his brother by now.

Qi Xing shook his head: "No, the fewer people know about it, the better."

"We are just two people, we are not familiar with the place, how can we catch ghosts? Your hands are not healed yet." Zhu Rui said.

Qi Xing stopped wiping his hair and hooked his hand at Zhu Rui: "Come here, let's discuss it slowly."

Lin Yue was already extremely tired. When he came out of the shower and used a hair dryer to dry his hair, he was already very sleepy.

But she still held on and called Lin Han.

Lin Han said cheerfully over there: "Boss Lin, what's the point of looking for me?" He went to ask for help today, and Zhu Rui was so generous that he earned a thousand yuan.

Lin Yue said briefly: "Didn't Aunt Huang from my B&B leave? Didn't you recommend your cousin to me before? Does she have a job now?" Lin Han had recommended him before when she was recruiting an aunt.

My cousin, it was only because her father strongly recommended Aunt Huang that she rejected Lin Han.

"Hey, my aunt, she went to the Eastern Province to do some work." Lin Han said, "If you look like this, I'll call and ask if anyone else can do it."

Lin Han just hung up the phone from Lin Yue, and the phone vibrated again.

It turned out to be Yang Lei.

When the call was answered, it was Fang Fang's voice: "Lin Han, where are you now?" The voice was a little urgent.

Lin Han smiled and said: "I'm at home. What's wrong?"

"Taotao, Taotao, she got divorced and left home..."

The Huanxi milk tea shop in town is still quite busy tonight.

Lin Han stood outside, looking through the glass door at Li Taotao sitting inside.

He remembered that Li Taotao was a girl who loved to laugh, but now the young woman sitting inside had a look of sorrow on her face, as if she could no longer laugh.

In the memory, Li Taotao had a somewhat plump figure, but now she was as thin as a bamboo pole. She was wearing a black cotton-padded jacket, which made her look empty.

Lin Han pushed the door open and walked in. Li Taotao looked up as if in shock. When she saw it was him, she couldn't help but reveal a shy smile.

"Lin Han..." Li Taotao looked at Lin Han, as if he had traveled through the years and returned to the days when he was in school.

She has gotten older, but Lin Han still looks the same in her memory.

Lin Han responded and sat down opposite Li Taotao: "Have you eaten?" He saw that Li Taotao only ordered a glass of cheap lemonade in front of him.

"I have eaten. Really. There is a rice noodle shop just around the corner. I have eaten there." Li Taotao promised, and then showed a careful smile, "It's so late, am I disturbing you?"

"We are classmates, there is no need to say this." Lin Han looked at the cautious Li Taotao and felt his throat was sore. The heartless and smiling girl from back then seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

He said: "The Linyue B&B just in front is recruiting aunties. They are usually responsible for cleaning and cooking. The salary is not too high, but food and accommodation are included. Do you want to try it?"

"But my cooking skills are not very good..." Li Taotao hesitated. She couldn't study when she was in school, but after she came out, she found that she couldn't do anything well. She couldn't even choose a man to marry.

Lin Han looked deeply at Li Taotao in front of her. Her eyes were dark, as if she hadn't slept well for a long time.

"You can learn." Lin Han said, "The owner of the B&B is a very kind person. When she hears about your fortune, she will definitely give you a chance."

It was late at night and Lin Yue was actually very sleepy.

Wearing a black cloak and her quick-drying hair loose, she sat quietly in front of the fireplace and almost fell asleep.

Lin Han's voice came: "Come in, it doesn't matter."

Lin Zhen greeted him: "Brother Han."

Li Taotao followed Lin Zhen, not daring to look around, but she caught sight of Lin Yue wrapped in a black cloak, and she couldn't help but marvel in her heart, what a beautiful woman.

Lin Han greeted Lin Yue carelessly: "Lin Yue, this is my classmate Li Taotao. She has come to apply for a job as a B&B aunt. Do you think she is suitable? Oh, my classmate's cooking is not very good, but I promise, she will cook well.

She learned it. Otherwise, during the probation period, you can give her a lower salary."

He had run out of words.

Lin Yue rolled his eyes at Lin Han: "I didn't even say I would give Taotao a lower salary, so why do you make the decision?"

Lin Han chuckled.
