The figure carefully closed the door. Seeing the room was pitch-black, their eyes darted about.
Sitting beneath the window, Xu Lai didn't even open his eyes. It was Ruan Lan.
Ruan Lan groped her way to the side of the bed in the dark. "Where's my brother-in-law?" Finding no one there, she froze in confusion.
"What are you doing?" Xu Lai finally spoke.
The voice suddenly came from beside the window, scaring Ruan Lan into a scream. "AAAH! A ghost!"
Resigned, Xu Lai turned on the light. Fortunately, the room was well soundproofed, so her scream didn't carry across the hall. Otherwise, not even ten mouths could have explained this away.
When the lights came on, Ruan Lan saw it was Xu Lai and said angrily, "You rotten brother-in-law! You weren't in bed! Were you sitting under the window just to scare me on purpose?"
