Terrified, Yun Shu spun around and leaped onto He Zichen, clinging to him like a kangaroo.
"There's a mouse..."
The distinct sensation of her pressed against him made He Zichen go rigid.
They had both just gotten out of bed, so their clothes were thin. Moreover, Yun Shu wasn't wearing a bra, and she was still squirming against him.
His voice was grave. "Get down!"
Yun Shu was still trembling, constantly looking over her shoulder. "There's a mouse, there's a mouse! I'm scared."
After a moment's hesitation, He Zichen whispered, "You've already scared the mouse away. If you don't get down now, the others will come out to see what's going on."
At his words, Yun Shu quickly jumped down. She swept the flashlight beam all around her feet. Forget going to the outhouse now; she wouldn't dare go even if she had to wet her pants.
She sprinted back to her room and slammed the door with a BANG.
