A Rat?

The castle at night seemed too quiet and it even gave a very eerie feeling. Maybe it was only Shui Xian who felt this way because Raelle seemed oblivious to the eerie feeling. But then again, she must be used to this atmosphere, right?

There were dim wall lamps lighting up the whole castle at night. It really made one feel like they had gone back into the medieval era. With Raelle holding his hand, Shui Xian stopped paying attention to anything else. As long as she was around, he was willing to travel to any era.

They were passing through the darkest corner of the castle and Shui Xian inadvertently glanced at the huge oil painting on the wall. He felt like the man in the painting seemed to be looking at him right now, this gave him a creepy feeling so his hold on Raelle's hand tightened.

Raelle noticed it and gave him a confused look. But when she followed his line of gaze, she understood it, "You also think the painting is looking at you?"
