Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Heh.” Su Luo sneered. “You’re so stubborn.”

Qi Shenbai and Xu Jiaojiao searched their surroundings. Under the dim light, it was difficult for them to see their surroundings clearly.

Bzzt—

Before they came in, the staff had said that the sound of an electric current meant that an NPC was coming out.

When the group heard the sound, their bodies trembled. “Run!” Qi Shenbai shouted.

He grabbed Xu Jiaojiao’s hand and ran toward a lit room. Su Luo followed closely behind, while Xu Zhengyang screamed as he followed them.

After the four of them entered the room, Qi Shenbai asked Xu Zhengyang and Su Luo to block the door to prevent the NPC from entering.

By now, Xu Zhengyang’s limbs were weak. He was no longer as cool and put-together as before. He leaned against the door heavily. His hair had collapsed from running, and he was terrified that someone would rush in from outside.

Qi Shenbai carefully scrutinized a piece of yellow paper beside the candle. Xu Jiao jiao stood at the side and helped him solve the puzzle.

“Are you afraid?” Qi Shenbai asked softly as he looked at Xu Jiao jiao under the light.

“I’m not afraid. 1 think it’s quite interesting.” Xu Jiaojiao shook her head and smiled.

Su Luo heard their conversation from the side and screamed inwardly, ‘1 ship! The two of them are so sweet together!’

Qi Shenbai looked at the surrounding walls. Their next step should be to open the side door of this room and go that way.

After some thought, Qi Shenbai stood in front of the password lock and tapped on a few numbers with his slender fingers. The wooden door opened with a beep.

“Oh no, you youngsters. Why did you come in?” Music sounded in the background, and they suddenly heard the voice of an old hag.

Xu Zhengyang slid to the ground and hugged Su Luo’s leg tightly, unwilling to let go.

“My house is very small. Only one of you young’uns may come in.”

The first challenge after opening the door was a solo mission.

The room behind the door was so dark that no one could see inside. The room was a mystery.

Xu Zhengyang did not even hesitate. He let go of one hand and pointed at Qi Shenbai. “You go!” After saying that, he continued to hug Su Luo’s leg tightly.

Before Qi Shenbai could speak, Su Luo kicked Xu Zhengyang. “He can’t go.”

“Why not?” Xu Zhengyang’s beautiful eyes widened. “Are you gonna go?”

“You should go.” Su Luo pulled him up from the ground. “Qi Shenbai and Jiao jiao solved the first password lock. It should be your turn to show off now, right?”

“What’s so difficult about a password lock? If it wasn’t because I was a little tired just now, 1 would have easily opened that lock.” Xu Zhengyang bluffed and raised his voice to back his words.

“Stop bragging. We’ll never get out if we waited for you to open the lock!” Su Luo crossed her arms in front of her chest and said mercilessly, “What’s there to be afraid of? It’s just an NPC!”

Just as Xu Zhengyang was about to retort, Xu Jiaojiao whispered, “Stop arguing. Why don’t I go?”

Both of them looked scared in her eyes.

“No!”

“Absolutely not!” Su Luo and Xu Zhengyang said in unison. Xu Jiaojiao was slightly surprised. Since when did the two of them have such a tacit understanding?

Xu Zhengyang frowned. He acted like a proper big brother for once. “How can a little girl like you go to such a dangerous place? What if you get injured?”

No matter how unreasonable he was usually, he was still reliable at critical moments. He did not want his sister to go in and be scared stiff.

“But…” Xu Jiaojiao was interrupted by Su Lu. “Just go with Mr. Qi and complete the main mission. Leave the side mission to us.”

As she spoke, she even winked at Xu Jiao jiao and secretly reached out to push her toward Qi Shenbai. Xu Jiaojiao stumbled to the man’s side. Qi Shenbai stretched out his long arm and wrapped her in his embrace.

“If you’re a man, you’ll take care of this mission. I’ll do the subsequent side missions, alright?” Su Luo was exasperated with Xu Zhengyang. Was he stupid? Could he stop getting in the way of those lovebirds?

“What do you mean? Are you trying to provoke me?” Xu Zhengyang rolled his eyes at her. “If I’m not a man, then you’re definitely not a woman!”

“How am I not a woman? I’m not like a certain someone who’s scared out of their wits!” A sly glint flashed across Su Luo’s eyes as she said indifferently, “It’s fine if you don’t dare to go. I guess I have no choice but to go because a certain coward refuses.”

“Who are you calling a coward?!” Xu Zhengyang blurted angrily on impulse. “Fine, 1’11 go.. It’s no big deal! I’m a real man, and I’ve never been afraid of anything in my life! Just wait for my good news!”
