Chapter 1452: Chapter 1450: The Scream from the Restroom
“Uncle, aren’t you scared?” Lin Shiyan asked, feeling a bit frightened herself after hearing what the uncle said.
“Of course I’m scared, but my family depends on me to make money. And now the pay is double, so earning a bit more is something.” The uncle sighed.
“But you’re just a young girl. You should head back quickly. Don’t risk your life for a bit of money.” The uncle shook his head.
From the uncle’s eyes, Lin Shiyan saw a hint of helplessness.
Knowing the danger, yet having no choice but to come.
I suppose, apart from this uncle, the others who came to work probably feel the same.
“Dadong, maybe… we should go back,” Lin Shiyan quietly tugged at Wang Dadong’s sleeve from behind.
The factory could accommodate three to four hundred people working at the same time, but now only a few dozen were working, making it feel particularly empty. Plus, being in the suburbs, when night fell, it instantly felt eerie.
The temperature at night was quite low, and Lin Shiyan, wearing just a shirt with a work jacket over it, wasn’t exactly cold, but she still felt a chill down her spine.
Wang Dadong turned around and saw Lin Shiyan’s somewhat pale and nervous face, and couldn’t help but find it funny.
Who would have thought that the usually strong goddess CEO would be afraid of something?
“Honey, are you scared?” Wang Dadong teased with a mischievous smile.
“Nonsense, I’m, I’m not scared.” Lin Shiyan didn’t want to be looked down upon by Wang Dadong, so she pretended to be calm.
“Alright then, dear wife, you stay here and keep watch while I go to the restroom.” Wang Dadong said, starting to head out of the factory.
“Ah… wait for me!” Lin Shiyan hurried to catch up.
“Why are you following me to the restroom?” Wang Dadong asked as he turned around.
“I, I need to go too.” Lin Shiyan replied nervously.
So she’s not scared, huh?
Wang Dadong smiled but didn’t expose her lie.
There was a public restroom outside the factory, quite large.
Lin Shiyan followed closely behind Wang Dadong, and suddenly, Wang Dadong turned around, causing her to bump into him.
“Dear wife, that’s the men’s room ahead. Or do you plan on using the men’s restroom?” Wang Dadong teased with a smirk.
Lin Shiyan looked up and realized they were already at the restroom entrance, almost following Wang Dadong into the men’s room.
As the goddess CEO of Jiangdu City, it was impossible for her to use the men’s restroom, but going to the women’s restroom alone…
In fact, fear often comes from scaring oneself.
Even the rustling sound of wind through leaves can be mistaken for something following you.
Involuntarily, Lin Shiyan recalled some horror stories related to bathrooms she’d heard before.
Honestly, Lin Shiyan hadn’t planned on using the restroom and was only following Wang Dadong because she was scared.
But being scared did make her feel a slight urge to go.
“I, I suddenly don’t feel like going anymore. You go ahead, I’ll wait outside.” In the end, Lin Shiyan decided to hold it in.
Better to hold it than to die of fright.
“Okay then.” Wang Dadong nodded and went into the restroom.
Lin Shiyan was left outside alone.
The restroom was a bit old, with some tiles missing, exposing the mottled walls underneath.
Next to the restroom was a large sycamore tree, and nearby was a streetlamp that, probably due to age, wasn’t very bright, casting dim light through the leaves, creating bizarre shadows on the ground.
When the wind blew, it made a rustling noise, and the shadows on the ground danced along with it.
The night was as quiet as a vacuum…
Suddenly, a hand rested on Lin Shiyan’s shoulder.
“Ah!”
Lin Shiyan screamed in fright.
“Honey, it’s me.” Wang Dadong’s voice came.
Seeing it was Wang Dadong, Lin Shiyan threw herself into his arms, her small fists showering him.
“You jerk, why did you scare your CEO like that!” Lin Shiyan was almost in tears.
“There, there, don’t be scared.” Wang Dadong soothed, inhaling the serene fragrance from Lin Shiyan as he gently patted the female CEO’s back.
From then on, Lin Shiyan followed Wang Dadong relentlessly, like a piece of cling film.
But Wang Dadong wasn’t annoyed at all; it wasn’t easy to make the queen show her dependent side.
Another half an hour passed, and Lin Shiyan finally couldn’t hold it in anymore.
Her legs involuntarily crossed and slightly twisted, her expression growing pained.
“Dadong, I, I need to use the restroom…” Finally, Lin Shiyan swallowed her pride and quietly told Wang Dadong.
“Oh, go ahead.” Wang Dadong said casually.
“I, I want you to come with me.” Lin Shiyan didn’t move but looked pleadingly at Wang Dadong.
Wang Dadong sighed and shook his head, regretting not going earlier. Now she wanted to go.
Nevertheless, he accompanied Lin Shiyan to the restroom.
At the restroom, Lin Shiyan hesitated again, afraid to go alone.
“Honey, do you want me to go in with you?” Wang Dadong teased.
“N-no need.” Lin Shiyan shook her head. If there were someone in the women’s restroom, Wang Dadong going in might make him seem like a pervert.
Could it be that I, the grand CEO of Jiangdu City, am so afraid to use the restroom alone? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
Lin Shiyan steeled herself, puffed up her courage, and headed toward the restroom.
Lin Shiyan finally entered the restroom. Although it was public, it was quite clean, and the lighting was bright inside, making her feel less scared.
Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, she realized her foot seemed to be caught by something, and she couldn’t lift it.
In an instant, Lin Shiyan’s body tensed, not daring to look back, afraid to find a bloody hand gripping her foot.
What should I do? Should I call for Wang Dadong?
But would he think I’m too timid?
Since he’s just outside, I’ll check the situation first.
Lin Shiyan took a deep breath, intending to check if it was a hand grabbing her foot. If it was indeed a hand, she’d call Wang Dadong.
Turning around, Lin Shiyan suddenly felt a bit foolish.
“I’m really scaring myself.” Lin Shiyan shook her head in self-mockery.
It turned out there was a small hole in the floor tile, and she was wearing stilettos. Her thin heel had fallen into the hole, getting stuck on the edge.
Seems like I’ve watched too many horror films.
Feeling braver, Lin Shiyan entered a stall.
Whew~
As a trickling sound ensued, Lin Shiyan let out a satisfied sigh of relief, feeling much lighter.
Outside, Wang Dadong just lit a cigarette but didn’t have time to smoke it before a scream suddenly erupted from the restroom.
