After Jiang Yu finished her dinner and took an anti-inflammatory pill, she obediently lay down to rest.
Sister Xia helped her to take care of everything before she left in peace and returned to her room to rest.
After lying down for a short while, Jiang Yu felt her head become heavy and very sleepy. She looked at the time and saw that it was already 10:30 pm. It was also time for her to sleep, so she closed her eyes and went to sleep.
After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Yu woke up from her sleep in a daze. She felt that her nose was very stuffy and she couldn’t breathe properly.
“I have a cold,” Jiang Yu muttered to herself. She climbed out of bed and prepared to go to the medical kit that Sister Xia had prepared for her.
Just as she took out a box of cold medicine, she heard a slight sound coming from the door.
Jiang Yu didn’t take it to heart. She just thought that someone was passing by her room. She poured herself a glass of water and was about to take her medicine when she heard the sound of crying from outside.
At first, it was only a soft sob, but it gradually turned into a heart-wrenching cry. It was especially desolate and terrifying in the dark corridor.
The people who lived on the same floor as Jiang Yu were woken up by the sound. They opened the door one after another, wanting to see who was crying in the corridor.
Jiang Yu originally did not intend to care, but someone knocked on her door and asked, “Jiang Yu, are you asleep?”
From the sound, it was Yuan Lai.
Jiang Yu got out of bed and opened the door. She asked, “What’s wrong?”
Yuan Lai handed something to her. “I saw this thing at your door. It was crying all the time. It was too noisy, but I couldn’t find the switch.”
Jiang Yu took the object and looked at it. It was an ordinary stuffed duck. But it was this ordinary stuffed duck that was crying out shrilly.
The other staff members also opened the door and surrounded it, looking at the stuffed duck.
“Who is this prank at night? Putting this object at the door of someone else’s room, isn’t it deliberately preventing others from having a good rest?”
“I think this is already beyond the scope of a prank, isn’t it? If it’s really a prank, at most, it would only play a few children’s songs. Who would play such a wailing sound in the middle of the night? This is just a deliberate attempt to scare people, right?”
Everyone had their own guesses, but no one knew what the truth was.
Jiang Yu flipped the duck doll over and saw a power switch under her clothes. She turned off the power and the cries from the duck doll stopped.
“Sorry for disturbing everyone’s rest,” Jiang Yu said apologetically. “Go back and rest. You still have work tomorrow.”
“We don’t have anything to do. It’s mainly you.” Yuan Lai was very worried about Jiang Yu because the duck doll had appeared out of thin air at the door of Jiang Yu’s room.
He said, “This duck is so scary, and it even appeared at the door of your room. We were all worried that something would happen to you.”
“I’m fine. It’s just a duck doll. It can’t scare me.” Jiang Yu smiled and shook the duck in her hand.
“I’ll take this doll back and put it away first. No matter who it is, whether it’s a prank in the middle of the night or a sociopath trying to scare people, I’ll take this doll as a gift from that person and accept it first.”
“Don’t do that. It’s obviously a scary thing. Jiang Yu, how do you dare to keep it?” Yuan Lai looked worried.
“But this duck is quite cute,” Jiang Yu said with a smile.
“But…” Yuan Lai wanted to say something else, but seeing Jiang Yu’s determined eyes, he didn’t want to say anything else, so he had to remind Jiang Yu to look for him at night.
“I understand. Don’t worry.” Jiang Yu patted Yuan Lai’s shoulder comfortingly, “Alright, go back and rest. Everyone, go back and rest. Don’t delay the filming tomorrow because of me.”
Since Jiang Yu had said so, the rest had no reason to stay. They all went back to their rooms to rest.
Jiang Yu closed the door and placed the stuffed duck on her bedside table.
Although no one knew who had placed the duck at the door of Jiang Yu’s room, Jiang Yu already had a candidate in mind — Li Yue.
Perhaps she didn’t put it there herself and had paid someone to do it, but this matter was definitely related to Li Yue.
Jiang Yu closed her eyes, but she couldn’t fall asleep no matter how hard she tried. She tossed and turned until dawn.
Although Li Yue had shown from the start that she didn’t like her attitude, but it wasn’t to the extent of harming her own life, was it?
