Rebirth: Slice-of-life Cultivation

Chapter 634: Chapter 396: Shouldn’t Sleep Here_2

The sofa wasn’t large, and Xue Yuantong was petite, leaving a slight gap.

She cuddled under a blanket, enjoying the horror movie, with the eerie sound effects echoing through the room.

Jiang Ning’s desktop speakers were a foreign brand name, costing over ten thousand yuan a pair, boasting superior sound quality, which made the movie even more terrifying.

As a few classic horror scenes unfolded, Xue Yuantong was scared half to death, her calves shaking uncontrollably.

She sneaked a peek at Chuchu beside her, hoping to find a scared expression on her sister’s face, but instead, she saw Chuchu resting her chin on her hands, watching serenely.

Xue Yuantong was puzzled. ‘Didn’t she say she was very scared?’

She suppressed her fear and continued watching, her heart pounding, when suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Xue Yuantong leaped up in fright. As the door opened, blinding light poured into the room, and Aunt Gu stood at the door, surprised, “Jiang Ning, you guys are watching a movie?”

“Yep, Tongtong wanted to watch it,” Jiang Ning said.

Xue Yuantong said, “Jiang Ning, you keep watching, I’m going home for a drink of water.”

Then she bolted after dropping that line.

Jiang Ning knew she wouldn’t come back, so he simply turned off the player.

On one side of the sofa, Xue Chuchu had fallen asleep.

Tongtong was terrified, yet she was sleeping; the difference between the two was vast.

The temperature in Jiang Ning’s room was very low, so he took the initiative to cover Xue Chuchu with the blanket, then he sat at his computer desk and put away the keyboard and mouse.

He took out a pile of messy parts from the drawer, including ropes, ceramics, jade, copper pieces, silver chunks, and tools like carving knives and scissors.

He was preparing to make a Peace Fortune keychain.
