Chapter 40: Unlucky House

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“What about the owners? Why don’t I see them?” Fu Xin asked casually.

The director smiled and said, “We rented a room from the owner. It’s just that the master bedroom isn’t available. But at the same time, they don’t live here anymore. They’re staying in their daughter’s house.”

Zhang Nan looked at it. “There’s no need to go through so much trouble, right? You even specially asked the elderly couple to move out?”

Chen Xiaomei said, “That’s right. How troublesome is that? They’re already so old. It’s not convenient for them to move around. There’s no need for the production team to do this, right?”

Hearing Chen Xiaomei’s anxious tone, Zhang Nan couldn’t help but glance at her again. However, she was still a movie queen, after all. Her expression was well-managed, and her actions didn’t attract anyone’s attention.

(Damn it, I’m already working so hard. Why isn’t my audience love value increasing? Is the audience blind? Can’t they see? Why didn’t that railing fall and smash these two bastards to death?!)

Jiang Xinyuan could not figure it out no matter how hard he thought about it. What was the bad woman trying to do? Didn’t she just say a few words? Wasn’t her effort too simple? At the thought of this, he snickered. However, he was afraid of being discovered, so he deliberately lowered his head.

However, his small action was captured by Tian Chong, who had been filming him and Fu Xin from the beginning to the end.

Jiang Yi, who was in front of the live broadcast, didn’t understand why his son would suddenly snicker. His gaze landed on the mother and son’s intertwined hands. He recalled that at the beginning of the live broadcast, Fu Xin and their son seemed to be a little unfamiliar with each other. It seemed that after joining the production team, they gradually became familiar with each other once more.

Jiang Yi thought that his son was happy over this. As for him, the last time he held Fu Xin’s hand was 15 years ago. He also wanted to hold Fu Xin’s hand…

At this moment, the director said righteously, “Of course, there’s a reason for getting the elderly couple to move out! We were left with no choice. The elderly woman is a famous chef in the village. If the couple were here, I’m afraid you’ll coax the grandma to cook for you!”

“You don’t overlook anything at all.” Fu Xin gave the director a thumbs-up again.

After seeing the first house, the guests were still in a relaxed mood. After all, it was much better than what they had expected. However, when the director brought them to the second house, everyone was stunned.

Guo Na said, “Oh my god…”

Zhang Nan commented, “It must’ve been hard to find such a house.”

Chen Xiaomei exclaimed, “Is this for real?”

Fei Fei said, “If we were filming the show in winter, would we be able to stay here?”

Fu Xin clicked her tongue and sighed. “Director, you’ve worked hard!”

The director cupped his hands at everyone and said, “You flatter me.”

The guests: “…”

The children held their mothers’ hands tightly and did not dare to move.

[Help!]

[This kind of house rarely even appears in television dramas. The director must have worked hard to find it!]

[Could it be a dangerous house? I can understand the director’s intention to cause trouble, but safety is also very important.]

The director chuckled and said, “Everyone, although the house is a little old and small, it’s not a problem to live in. The Best Actress has filmed so many movies and dramas. One of her characters even stayed in a small dilapidated temple. Compared to a small dilapidated temple, this house can protect you from the wind and rain. How good is that?”

Zhang Nan retorted, “When filming a movie, the scene would change to the next day?”

The director was speechless. He pushed open the wooden door and led the way into the house. “Anyway, a pair of guests will definitely be staying here tonight.”

This house was even older than the previous one. The color of the wood could no longer be seen. There were even missing pieces in some places. In short, it was very creepy.

However, at this moment, two cats poked their heads out of the wooden window. Their bodies were chubby and furry, instantly attracting the attention of all the guests.

“Mommy, it’s a cat!” Bai Ruirui loved cats the most. Her fear of staying in such a dilapidated house instantly disappeared.

The other party broke free from Fei Fei’s grip and ran over. Her enthusiasm could not be stopped at all.

Even Feng Jun looked a little infatuated. He looked up at the cats and then at the director. “Uncle, if we get this house, can we play with the cats?”

The director smiled and said, “These cats are the owner’s pets. You have to ask them.”

Although Huo Run also liked small animals, he was afraid of ghosts. This grayish-black wooden house looked scary. He did not want to stay in this house at all, so he did not go forward.

Jiang Xinyuan looked at Huo Run. In his previous life, Huo Run had gotten this house and it collapsed…

While the adults went to check on the bed, Jiang Xinyuan raised his head and carefully observed the roof beams, hoping to find the culprit behind the collapse of the house!
