Chapter 182 You are so gentle!
Lu Cheng smiled and nodded, his eyes flashing with anticipation: "Of course, it sounds interesting."
Andy turned to his other friends and asked enthusiastically, "How about you? Would you like to come with us? This will be an adventure full of unknowns and excitement."
Everyone agreed excitedly, laughter and anticipation echoed in the air, as if they had already foreseen the excitement that was to come.
A group of people drove to the legendary ghost town. In the night, the car slowly drove into the suburbs and finally stopped in front of an old gate that exuded a desolate atmosphere.
The surroundings were so quiet that only the occasional chirping of cicadas and distant bird calls could be heard, as if time had stopped here.
Looking at this door, everyone couldn't help but feel a little chilly, but their inner curiosity and adventurous spirit made them eager to try.
They exchanged a firm look and walked together towards the reception desk next to the gate.
According to the process, they each entered their names and waited for the computer to randomly pair and assign tasks.
However, while waiting, Leng Yuexin secretly hacked into the computer with her mobile phone. She paired her name with Lu Cheng's name and specially chose the highly praised evasion mission.
A few minutes later, the results of the pairing and task assignment were revealed. The others were paired with one man and one woman, and only Andy and A Zhong, two men, were assigned to a group.
Andy looked at the matching results and pouted in dissatisfaction. He complained, "After all, I am the birthday boy today. Why don't I have any special privileges?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of laughter from the people around him. Leng Yuexin and Lu Cheng smiled at each other, almost unable to close their mouths.
Seeing this, Andy suddenly had an idea and turned to walk towards Lu Cheng, trying to make a final effort: "Xiao Chengzi, you should switch groups with Ah Zhong. Anyway, you don't like girls to be too close to you. Xiao Leng and I are just right for each other."
However, Lu Cheng looked at Andy with a half-smile, shook his head and said, "Go to hell, just do the task according to the pairing."
Andy looked at Lu Cheng in confusion, but one look from Lu Cheng made him immediately understand the deeper meaning.
So Andy said no more and asked everyone to go and complete their tasks according to the pairing results.
In the darkness of night, the group dispersed and embarked on their own adventures.
Leng Yuexin and Lu Cheng wore mission devices and shuttled through the shadows of the ghost town, looking for the mission location.
This town is ancient and mysterious, as if it hides countless unknown secrets.
They came to an eerie and dimly lit abandoned ancestral hall, where the induction circle was located in a dilapidated corner of the wall.
They must stand within this induction circle and wait for the tasker to complete the countdown.
Since the range of the induction circle was very limited, Leng Yuexin had to stand close to the wall and try her best to keep her balance.
Lu Cheng stood beside her, with one hand on the wall to avoid touching her.
In the dim ancestral hall, the atmosphere gradually became subtle.
There was silence all around, with only the sounds of their breathing and heartbeats echoing.
Suddenly, Lu Cheng broke the silence softly: "Xiao Leng, are you scared?"
Leng Yuexin wasn't actually afraid, but she deliberately made a trembling voice: "It's okay... but it's a bit eerie here."
Before she could finish her words, her hand was tightly held by Lu Cheng's warm and strong hand.
Lu Cheng's palms were slightly sweaty, and he was obviously a little nervous. He gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Leng Yuexin was secretly delighted and responded softly: "Thank you!"
The two of them waited quietly to avoid the countdown. In the silent darkness, besides each other's rapid breathing, they seemed to be able to hear each other's chaotic heartbeats.
Leng Yuexin raised her head slightly. Although she couldn't see Lu Cheng's face in the dark, she could feel Lu Cheng's breath, as if Lu Cheng was looking down at her.
Suddenly, the task device beeped, prompting them that they had enough time to hide and needed to go to the next hiding place as soon as possible.
Lu Cheng gently took Leng Yuexin's hand and walked out of the abandoned ancestral hall. They shuttled through the night and moved towards the next challenge.
The second hiding place was a ghost marriage hall filled with a weird atmosphere.
Under the dim light, two coffins were quietly placed in the center of the mourning hall. In the middle was an old single wooden bed. Under the bed was a mat similar in size to a yoga mat, serving as a sensing range.
However, the height of this bed is unusually low for an adult, and it is almost impossible to squat directly on the cushion, and one can only lie down.
To make matters more difficult, the sensor for the task required that one not lie sideways, and the mat was not wide enough for two people to lie flat at the same time without exceeding the sensing range.
Leng Yuexin stood in front of the bed, and she finally understood why this task was called a challenge that could bring men and women closer together.
If a man and a woman have no affection or tacit understanding for each other, they will probably choose to give up at this point.
She began to worry that Lu Cheng would give up because he felt embarrassed or uncomfortable. After all, their favorability was not high.
However, Lu Cheng showed no signs of backing down.
After observing the situation under the bed, he got in without hesitation, then lay on the mat and said to Leng Yuexin: "Xiao Leng, lie on my back, so that our bodies can be kept within the sensing range at the same time."
Leng Yuexin looked at Lu Cheng's slightly raised buttocks and couldn't help laughing. She asked, "Wouldn't it be uncomfortable for you to lie down like this?"
Lu Cheng looked at her sideways and said with a smile: "It's okay, come up, I can hold on."
Leng Yuexin looked at his uncomfortable posture and suggested, "How about you just lie down? It's fine with me."
After a little consideration, Lu Cheng realized that lying prone might not be very comfortable, so he changed his posture and lay flat on the mat.
He confirmed again: "Do you really think this is okay?"
Leng Yuexin smiled and nodded, adjusted her posture, carefully bent down, and gently lay on Lu Cheng.
When Lu Cheng felt Leng Yuexin approaching, his body suddenly stiffened. Under the dim light, a blush quietly crept up his cheeks.
The two of them waited quietly for the countdown of the task device to begin, but at this moment, a shrill and piercing ghost sound suddenly sounded, breaking the silence.
The two were frightened and their bodies trembled involuntarily. Leng Yuexin instinctively grabbed Lu Cheng's clothes.
Lu Cheng reacted, he gently hugged Leng Yuexin and comforted her: "I'm here, don't be afraid!"
Leng Yuexin raised her head slightly, moved forward a little, put her hands on the cushion, looked into Lu Cheng's eyes, and said sincerely: "Lu Cheng, you are so gentle!"
