Chapter 0063 Midnight in Jiangnan
I ignored him and went into the house to look for Baoer. Along the way, I met many familiar faces. When they saw me, some called me "Young Master" and some called me "Master Chen".
It turned out that after He Jintang came back, he called back the servants who had been dismissed before, saying that the unclean things in the old house had been removed and there would be no more trouble in the future.
These people have worked in the He family for many years, and Master He Jiu has always treated them very well and paid them high salaries. When they heard that Master He Jiu had died in an accident in another place, they all cried bitterly and expressed their willingness to come back.
As for Mrs. Zhang and the other two who were willing to stay at the most dangerous moment, they were all promoted to managers.
Baoer lives in a room on the second floor. When I went in, she was sitting on a small chair playing with her mobile phone. She was wearing a white dress and her long black hair hung on her shoulders. Although she was still a little thin, her face was much rounder than before.
Looking at Tiantianjingjing, although she is only five years old, she has the air of a lady from a wealthy family.
Hearing the sound, she looked up and saw that it was me, blinked and said, "Brother, you should catch fewer sisters in the future."
I almost vomited blood, and went over to mess up her neat long hair, "What nonsense are you talking about."
Baoer said seriously: "Third uncle said that you never come to see Baoer, you are just trying to hook up with your sister."
At this time, He Jintang also came up the stairs. When he heard this, he was immediately delighted and kept praising Baoer for what he said.
I glared at him unhappily and told Baoer not to listen to his nonsense.
Baoer said "oh".
I saw that the picture on her phone was dark and eerie, and it seemed to be some horror adventure game, so I asked her what she was playing and whether it was fun.
She nodded and said it was okay.
He Jintang came over to take a look and was shocked: "Bao'er, have you already completed the game?"
It turns out that this is a newly released horror game with a very weird and dark style, and even some adults who are a little timid can't stand it.
Moreover, the game is very complex in design, with each link interconnected and extremely brain-burning, and very difficult. Many puzzle experts call it hellish. I didn't expect that Baoer just started it last night, and he had already finished it today.
This little girl really always surprises us.
He Jintang pulled me to the corridor, frowned, and asked me with some concern: "Old Chen, tonight... do you think anything will happen?"
He didn't make any sense, but I knew what he meant.
Because today is Baoer’s fifth birthday.
Baoer was born at 11:30 in the evening, which means that as long as Baoer is still safe and sound the curse of the He family will be truly lifted.
"Don't worry, Baoer's life is much better than yours." I comforted him.
He Jintang smiled and said, "That's true! How about this, let's celebrate Baoer's birthday tonight?"
Of course, I fully agree with this proposal.
He Jintang was quite nervous. He said that he had hosted birthday parties for many girlfriends and was very familiar with it, but he had never hosted one for a young girl. He asked me what he should prepare.
How would I know? So we went to check it out. I remembered that Zhu Xiaomei was a nurse in the hospital and she mostly took care of children, so I called her and asked for her opinion.
When He Jintang heard this, he snatched my phone in surprise and invited the other party to come to Baoer's birthday party in the evening.
I thought that letting Zhu Xiaomei get to know He Jintang would be of great benefit to her in the future, so I didn't stop her.
In the evening, A Biao, who was busy and exhausted, rushed back from outside. When he heard that Baoer was going to celebrate his birthday, he was also very excited.
Seeing that the time was almost up, the three of us took Baoer and drove to "Yu Jiangnan".
Yu Jiangnan is a famous high-end restaurant in Jiangcheng. He Jintang knows the son of the owner of this restaurant, but the most important thing is that he heard that the dishes here are very popular among children, so he chose this place after careful selection.
It was the first time that He Jintang celebrated the birthday of his beloved niece, so naturally he wanted to do it in the best way possible, demanding everything to be top-notch and extravagant to the extreme.
Zhu Xiaomei was frightened by the scene as soon as she arrived. She quietly found me and said embarrassedly that she didn't expect the birthday party to be so high-end and the gift she bought was too cheap.
I smiled and comforted her, saying that it was good enough to have a gift, as I had not prepared anything.
Zhu Xiaomei was still nervous, but later she saw that He Jintang and A Biao were both easy to talk to and didn't put on airs, and Baoer was like a little adult who didn't like to talk much but was very sensible. So she gradually relaxed and wasn't so restrained.
Until the clock struck twelve at midnight, He Jintang suddenly yelled, jumped up from his chair, picked up Baoer and cheered, which scared Zhu Xiaomei.
A Biao and I looked at each other and were extremely happy.
Baoer's fifth birthday passed safely, which means that the curse of the He family has finally ended!
Although Zhu Xiaomei didn't understand what was going on, she was infected by the joyful atmosphere and laughed with us.
After eating the cake, Zhu Xiaomei took Baoer to the bathroom.
The three of us men were drinking and chatting when we suddenly received a call from Zhu Xiaomei. Her voice sounded anxious and fearful, saying that something had happened to Baoer and asked us to hurry over.
When we hurried over, Zhu Xiaomei was in a corridor on the top floor. For some reason, all the lights there were off and it looked very dark.
It turned out that Zhu Xiaomei was leading Baoer out of the bathroom just now, and Baoer suddenly started running upstairs. Zhu Xiaomei hurriedly chased after him in a hurry.
The two of them chased each other and ran, and before they knew it, they were on the top floor.
For some reason, all the lights here went out, and it was pitch black.
Baoer ran here and suddenly stopped, then raised his left hand and pointed at a room next to him.
Zhu Xiaomei wanted to pull Baoer back, but after several attempts, she failed. She quickly called me.
I stopped He Jintang and A Biao who were about to rush over. With the help of the light from my cell phone, I saw that Baoer had empty eyes and a dull expression, exactly the same as he looked at Wuliang Mountain. I couldn't help but be startled.
Moreover, there was a chill in the air, and it was obvious that there was some residual Yin energy.
I walked up to Baoer and touched her head, and whispered softly in her ear: "Be good, Baoer, brother is here."
When she was in Wuliang Mountain, Baoer said that she often entered this strange state, where her body was out of control but her consciousness was clear.
Later, I thought about it and felt that Baoer might have a rare psychic physique, and the reason why he appeared like this was actually because of The Shining.
But the strange thing is that most people tend to become unconscious after becoming psychic, and may not even remember what they did. However, Baoer 's mind is unusually clear, and he remembers everything clearly.
