Chapter 1571 - 1466: Apology

"What are you doing up at midnight?" Qin Hao looked utterly baffled: "And you should call me grandpa!"

"You!" Huang Cuicui’s face turned pale and red with anger.

At such a fearful moment, she didn’t expect Qin Hao to still be in a playful mood.

"I’m not joking! You’re insulting me! Yet you refuse to call me grandpa! I don’t like you! Just get out!" Qin Hao showed an angry expression, ordering them to leave.

The four of them became tense.

It’s so terrifying outside, who would dare to go out?

Chu Xi’s actions were like pushing them into a pit of fire; who would want that?

"Chu Xi!" Lei Xiuzhu couldn’t take it anymore and raised her voice: "Why are you being so petty! Can’t we stay for a while?"

"No!" Qin Hao said resolutely: "You humiliated me! Treated me like an idiot! I’m not happy anymore!"

"You!" Lei Xiuzhu didn’t expect Qin Hao to be like this and her expression changed; suddenly she said: "I was wrong! I shouldn’t have spoken about you at the dinner table before!"

Lei Xiuzhu’s action stunned Huang Cuicui, Luo Yong, and the others.

"This... Senior Sister Lei actually apologized to the fool? Is this a joke!"

"Huang Cuicui, why don’t you hurry up and apologize!"

More outrageous was Lei Xiuzhu loudly chastising Huang Cuicui.

"I..." Huang Cuicui woke up to it, her face flushed red.

Apologizing to Qin Hao felt worse than death.

But unfortunately, there wasn’t a choice, as Lei Xiuzhu was watching.

She could only lower her head and say to Qin Hao, "I was wrong, I shouldn’t have insulted you."

"Hmph!" Qin Hao crossed his arms, looking smug: "You still need to call me grandpa! You bet on it!"

Huang Cuicui’s body shook, feeling ashamed enough to die.

Luo Yong pointed at Qin Hao and said: "Chu Xi, don’t be too excessive!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei Xiuzhu’s threatening gaze came over, and Luo Yong’s expression changed, forcing him to say: "Grandpa!"

"Aye!" Qin Hao laughed so much he almost cried.

Lei Xiuzhu’s gaze fell on Huang Cuicui.

The latter gritted her teeth, trembling all over as she said: "Grandpa."

"Good! Good kids!" Qin Hao laughed with his mouth wide open, showing his teeth.

"So, grandchildren, why did you come here? Disturbing grandpa at midnight, aren’t you afraid of being hit?" Qin Hao said in an old-fashioned tone.

They didn’t expect Qin Hao to be even more arrogant, all of them got black lines on their faces.

However, to avoid being tossed out, they could only suppress the anger.

Ma Ji was fine, he hadn’t been insulted.

He explained: "We saw many strange things, so we came to see if Brother Chu is alright."

"Strange things?" Qin Hao looked puzzled.

"Ghosts screaming outside, ghosts appearing..." As if needing to vent, Huang Cuicui quickly said.

"What?" Qin Hao was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha! You’re also Immortals, yet you’re afraid of ghost stuff? What a joke!"

They didn’t expect Qin Hao to laugh so loudly, making them angry and blushing.

"Enough!" Lei Xiuzhu interrupted angrily: "We aren’t scared! We’re concerned for your safety to come over and check!"

"Oh." Qin Hao laughed, clutching his stomach: "I’m fine now, you all should leave! I’m going back to sleep!"

"..."

Lei Xiuzhu was speechless, and the other four’s faces showed disappointment.

"What’s wrong? Why aren’t you leaving? Why disturb my sleep?" Qin Hao seemed baffled.

"Enough!" Huang Cuicui exclaimed in anger: "So what if we’re scared? Can’t we just stay here?"

She thought the fool was simply too hateful.

He clearly knows she’s scared yet still wants to drive them out.

It’s downright malicious!

"Chu Xi! Stop dwelling on past grievances." Having no choice, wanting a reason to stay, Lei Xiuzhu tried reasoning: "We’re classmates; we should care for each other at this critical moment. So, don’t act impulsively."

"I’m not being impulsive, just want to sleep." Qin Hao yawned.

"Sleep! Sleep your head!" Luo Yong couldn’t help but tease: "With things as they are outside, surely something’s happening, how can you calmly sleep?"

"Why not?" Qin Hao’s indifferent response left Luo Yong speechless.

Right? After all, this woodshed is fine, why can’t they sleep?

"Should we all sleep here?" Luo Yong suggested.

Lei Xiuzhu and Huang Cuicui’s eyes lit up slightly.

Indeed, ever since they entered the woodshed, every eerie and horrifying thing seemed to vanish.

This place seemed like a safe haven.

If they stayed here until daylight, wouldn’t all ghosts and monsters be exposed?

What else would there be to fear?

"I think we can!" Lei Xiuzhu promptly nodded.

"I’ll listen to Senior Sister!" Huang Cuicui echoed.

"Then... let’s stay... and rest?" Ma Ji asked uncertainly.

"Rest!"

Lei Xiuzhu finished speaking, didn’t mind the dirty floor, and sat right down.

Seeing this, the other three also couldn’t stop, plopping down on the ground.

Before sitting, Ma Ji even used his Spiritual Technique to embed the wooden door into the wall, closing it tightly.

The four of them hadn’t been seated on the ground long, but they felt incredibly blessed to discover that sometimes even hard, cold ground could feel like a soft cushion.

But just then, Qin Hao got up and walked towards the door.

"What are you doing!" The four stood up in shock.

Qin Hao yawned and, looking back said: "You’re all crowded here, how can I sleep? Of course, I’m going out for a walk."

"It’s so scary outside, you’re going out?" Huang Cuicui said somewhat surprised.

"Why wouldn’t I? You think everyone is like you?" Qin Hao looked full of disdain.

"You!" Huang Cuicui was extremely angry and shouted: "Then just go out! I won’t care about your life or death!"

"Oh!"

Qin Hao nodded plainly, giving the door a kick.

Bang!

The wooden door shattered, and Qin Hao strode into the darkness.

Whoosh!

The cold wind blew in from outside, making the four inside feel extremely chilled.

"What do we do?" Ma Ji asked, looking troubled.

"Let him go! He wants to die, we can’t help!" Huang Cuicui said angrily.

Lei Xiuzhu thought about going after Qin Hao.

But after contemplating, she still felt the spot was safer.

"We’ll stay here, let him be..."

Lei Xiuzhu had just finished speaking when ominous vibes seemed to sweep in.

At the same time, it felt like many pairs of eyes were staring at them from the shadows.

That eerie feeling returned!

"Do you guys... feel it?" This time, Ma Ji spoke with fear in his voice.

"Yes... I’m so scared!" Huang Cuicui stood up, full of fear, "Why am I so afraid now that the fool is gone!"
