This time, Zhu Junjie's legs were held, and they were even softer than before, making it impossible for him to move. He kicked his legs a few times, then quickly turned and hugged Song Lan, saying, "Quick, help me see what's on my leg." Zhu Junjie's legs and feet were weak, and most of his weight was on Song Lan.
Song Lan looked at the prop on his leg; the timer for that prop had expired, and it had slowly released Zhu Junjie, returning to its original position.
Song Lan glanced at Zhu Junjie, who was trembling against her shoulder, and said, "The prop has left. If you're scared, we can go straight out through the exit now."
They had just entered the haunted house, and the exit was only a couple of steps away. Once they passed through that heavy door that blocked out the light, their journey in the haunted house would come to an end.
Zhu Junjie has a stubborn temper. After making big promises, if he's asked to back down now, he will seriously consider it for a while. If he leaves directly, it will become a black mark on his record. If he continues on, he will adapt to the haunted house and perform better, thus redeeming the lost face. Even if he can't fully redeem himself, it will still be better than the current situation.
Zhu Junjie thought for a moment and made a decision. "I... I just wasn't ready yet. Next time, I definitely won't act like I did earlier."
It wasn't that he wasn't prepared or that he lacked courage; it was simply that he wasn't suited for this game.
Song Lan understood that Zhu Junjie was concerned about his pride, so she reminded him, "It's impressive that you didn't run out in fear on your first try."
"Since it's going well, let's continue."
Zhu Junjie didn't wait for Song Lan to speak again. He walked forward directly, with a confident and handsome stride.
However, this confidence didn't last long, as an NPC somersaulted down from the roof.
The NPC appeared very menacing, descending rapidly. When Zhu Junjie noticed it, their eyes met. If the NPC had "a pair of eyes," it would have been fine, but unfortunately, the NPC's face was covered with a skull mask, and the dark eye sockets frightened Zhu Junjie into screaming again, his voice echoing throughout the entire haunted house. Song Lan was speechless once more, and she considered taking out her phone to record Zhu Junjie's reaction to show him later.
In the end, she gave up considering his face. When Zhu Junjie once again threw himself into Song Lan's arms seeking comfort, Song Lan looked at the upturned face with a somewhat helpless expression on Tong Tong, and a slight smile at the corner of his mouth. This guy Zhu Junjie is as stubborn as a mule. Song Lan asked Zhu Junjie once again, "Do you want to continue playing?"
"I don't believe it, I'll be just fine later!" Tong Tong said, "Just play a few more times, so that in the future, I can accompany Song Lan and Tong Tong to play. Even if I'm scared, I have to adapt!" Zhu Junjie clenched his fists, cheering himself on.
Courage is commendable!
Song Lan did not persuade them to turn back, and the three continued on.
Zhu Junjie has gained a deeper understanding of his own courage. He no longer takes the lead as he did just now. He walks side by side with Song Lan, gripping her shoulder with a nervous look that almost makes Song Lan burst out laughing.
She looked up at the surveillance camera. Should she ask the staff to make a copy of the surveillance video for her to take back and let him watch it himself? That way, the family of three slowly moved inside the haunted house.
Zhu Junjie Although he had previous experience, when an NPC suddenly appeared later on, he couldn't help but scream. By the end, his throat was sore from screaming so much. Inside the haunted house, it wasn't just his family of three, there were several players who entered with them, some of whom looked at Zhu Junjie with speechless expressions. The women and children around him were not afraid at all, yet he ended up screaming the loudest.
Some players joked half-seriously, saying that they took the route of their wives and children first, leaving them with no way out, thus saving the trouble of coaxing their wives and children.
Song Lan was very close to them and inadvertently overheard their conversation. She raised her hand and pinched her brow.
These people have no idea that Zhu Junjie is truly afraid. With his temperament, if he could endure it, he would absolutely not make a single sound!
I don't know if he will still boast about his courage from now on.
"It's over."
The three of them came out of the haunted house, and Song Lan reminded Zhu Junjie, who was trembling non-stop, leaning on her shoulder.
Fortunately, Zhu Junjie can still move on her own, without reaching the point of being unable to move due to weak legs. Otherwise, she might have to have the staff carry her out of the haunted house on a stretcher. This incident will probably be posted online, and by then, it will likely bring a lot of people a good laugh. "Did we... did we make it out?"
Zhu Junjie Slowly raised his head, and when he saw the blue sky and white clouds outside, he suddenly felt that the weather today was really good!
Zhu Junjie The tension in his mind loosened, and he almost sat down on the ground.
Song Lan Supported him, "Are you okay?"
"I... I..."
"I'll help you to sit over there for a while."
Not far away, there is a row of benches for visitors to rest.
Song Lan held Zhu Junjie's hand and had him sit down on the couch. From his bag, Song Lan took out a thermos of warm water and handed it to Zhu Junjie, saying "Have a sip slowly."
"Thank you," he said.
Zhu Junjie took the thermos and drank some water. His body, which was afraid of getting cold, felt slightly better under the warmth. He looked down, not daring to look at Song Lan again. "I'm sorry, I overestimated myself. I...I won't say such big things again in the future!"
Zhu JunjieI used to think I was very brave and felt that I had a lot of courage. But since I found out that I have a fear of heights, I started to doubt myself. He thought this was an embarrassing flaw and wanted to hide it secretly, not to be discovered by anyone. But secrets always have a day of exposure in front of people. His fear of heights has already been known by several people.
He thought the haunted house wouldn't be scary, but as soon as he entered, he was constantly in fear. His throat was sore from screaming too much, and Zhu Junjie took a few sips of water to soothe it. "It's okay, nobody's perfect. I accept you as you are."
Song Lan doesn't speak sweet words. Her relationship with Zhu Junjie seems more like a partnership. They don't communicate much, and it's somewhat formal.
Her recent words greatly surprised Zhu Junjie. He gazed at Song Lan with intense eyes, as if the light and warmth in his eyes could melt Song Lan.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
Song Lan Slightly furrowed his brows.
Zhu Junjie As she was about to straighten up slightly to create some distance from him, he excitedly grasped her hand, "What you just said made me feel an unparalleled joy."
"What did I just say?"
Let him be excited like this...
"You say you accept the imperfect me, you've never said such words to me before!"
He always felt that Song Lan was indifferent, her eyes only had Tong Tong and work, she treated his parents and Zhu Junqiao better than him, she didn't like him, she preferred her parents.
His parents are a bonus, he is an optional existence.
He thought she didn't have a place for him in her heart.
Just one sentence from her made him certain that she had already accepted him in her heart!
