CHAPTER 57 part 1
There were very few tourists in the amusement park, and the most excited one was probably Ruan Jiu Jiu.
After playing a few games, her cheeks were flushed, her eyes flickered, and her hair was blown a little messy. Ruan Jiu Jiu looked like she had not played enough, looking around for other interesting games.
“What else do you want to play?” Ruan Jiu Jiu called out to Cheng Jun.
Cheng Jun sat on a bench with a dull expression, without turning his eyes, making Ruan Jiu Jiu strangely reminded of Mrs. Xianglin [1], and his eyes turned occasionally, proving that he is still a living thing.
“Xianglin …… no, Cheng Jun, how are you, are you not feeling well?”
Cheng Jun remained silent for a moment.
“I’m fine.”
“That Rattlesnake Canyon over there looks interesting, do you want to try it?”
Cheng Jun said, “Change it.”
“What to play?”
“Haunted house.”
If Ruan Jiu Jiu is not afraid of heights and likes to play exciting projects, then she must be afraid of the haunted house. When girls see ghosts, don’t they always cry and crash into the arms of their boyfriend or husband?
Cheng Jun was still in a struggle after he recovered his spirit.
Ruan Jiu Jiu was in deep thought.
A picky player like her would not enter the haunted house in ordinary amusement parks, because the props were poorly made and the staff was not dedicated enough, resulting in the atmosphere of the whole game being not scary at all. Not to mention that some staff members were less daring than tourists and were frightened to tears by Ruan Jiu Jiu, and she was thus blacklisted.
Ruan Jiu Jiu still remembers a long time ago when she went to play in an abandoned hospital-themed haunted house, the scene was so frightening that Ruan Jiu Jiu was a little creeped out.
Then, the little brother of a small couple in front of her was scared that he even peed in his pants.
The scene was awkward for a while.
Ruan Jiu Jiu was also very embarrassed, although she was not concerned about it, and was very indifferent throughout the end.
“But I don’t know if the haunted house will be scary.”
Seeing Ruan Jiu Jiu’s hesitant expression, Cheng Jun was relieved. He stood and slowly said, “Give it a try.”
In case Ruan Jiu Jiu gets scared and cries.
The amusement park should be played to the fullest, Ruan Jiu Jiu followed Cheng Jun to play in the haunted house. After the staff said the instructions, the two of them confirmed that there was no problem, and they went in towards the entrance.
This time there are only two of them, and they are about to enjoy the haunted house like VIPs.
As soon as she entered the door, it was dark and Cheng Jun’s voice rang out beside her: “If you are afraid, grab my arm.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu agreed without a second thought.
…… The premise is that if she would really be afraid.
As he was talking, a hand suddenly dropped from the dark ceiling, it was pale and weak, with bloodstains on the fingertips, and was almost thrown on Ruan Jiu Jiu’s face.
Ruan Jiu Jiu was shocked.
This effect is pretty good! The atmosphere was well made! It exceeded her expectations and must be given high marks!
Cheng Jun did not hear Ruan Jiu Jiu’s movement, and he subconsciously turns his head,
Then, he stared at a female ghost who was hanging in the air. The staff member who played the female ghost probably hadn’t seen such a good-looking man. She blushed shyly, opened her mouth and her facial features were strangely twisted together.
“……”
Ruan Jiu Jiu whispered, “It’s a bit scary.”
Cheng Jun stiffly turned his head, trying to maintain his composure. He finally waited for the imaginary subtext and was about to lend his shoulder to Ruan Jiu Jiu to lean on when Ruan Jiu Jiu beautifully added another sentence.
“Really good.”
Cheng Jun: “?”
He has a bad feeling about this.
“Go go go, let’s go explore the more interesting rooms.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu pulled him by the arm as he wished, but it wasn’t the outcome he wanted. Ruan Jiu Jiu barged towards the scariest-looking room with a single-minded focus on having fun. She suddenly pushed open the door, suddenly opened the cabinet, suddenly found a new hidden door, and was very keen on all kinds of surprises.
She even ran after the ghost with a chainsaw prop!
Cheng Jun watched Ruan Jiu Jiu play more and more, the more she played, the more he could not stop her, and she has long forgotten about his existence.
The staff heard that there were two very high-value tourists, one by one, they were so excited, even the resting employees wore clothes to scare them, and the female ghosts all came to watch Cheng Jun.
Ruan Jiu Jiu felt a strong excitement and suddenly felt that the tickets for today’s amusement park were too worthwhile.
She suddenly noticed that Cheng Jun seemed to have disappeared?
“Cheng Jun? Where are you?” Ruan Jiu Jiu called his name.
“Over here.”
Cheng Jun struggled to get out of the group of female ghosts that were terrorizing him, his face was expressionless, and he did not look very calm at all.
Ruan Jiu Jiu joked, “Are you afraid of it?”
Cheng Jun: “…… No.”
“Ah! Behind you!” Ruan Jiu Jiu suddenly pointed at Cheng Jun’s back and screamed.
He reacted extremely quickly, grabbed Ruan Jiu Jiu’s wrist, and took a few steps backward, but when he looked back, he found nothing. It turned out that Ruan Jiu Jiu was deliberately scaring him.
“……”

Ruan Jiu Jiu almost bent her back laughing.
She had never discovered that Cheng Jun had such a cute side!
“Don’t be afraid! Don’t worry, I will protect you.” Ruan Jiu Jiu patted her chest, signaling Cheng Jun to hold on to her: “Come on, we’re not far from the end.”
In Cheng Jun’s imagination, Ruan Jiu Jiu would be crying and hiding in his arms, screaming ‘so scary’ while begging for a touch. Well, it’s fine now, but how come there is a feeling of …… the other way around?
Ruan Jiu Jiu was very protective of Cheng Jun.
Cheng Jun grabbed her wrist and not even knowing when, he slipped silently and gradually his fingertips dropped down along her wrist, and finally he gently held her fingers. Ruan Jiu Jiu was so focused on playing in the haunted house that she did not even notice if the person she was holding was a dog or a person.
Cheng Jun also lost focus.
In the silence and darkness of the haunted house, his heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and all his attention was focused on Ruan Jiu Jiu’s hand.
Sure enough, under the fear, there will be the illusion of a faster heartbeat. What about Ruan Jiu Jiu?
“Wow! Look at that, a crack-headed girl!” Ruan Jiu Jiu excitedly pointed at a certain place.
The female ghost who was about to grin widely smiled idiotically at Cheng Jun.
Cheng Jun: “……”
Ruan Jiu Jiu was satisfied with this trip.
Until she got out of the haunted house, she was still reluctant to leave and was dragged out by Cheng Jun abruptly.
Unknowingly, it was already evening, and the sky was gloomy, with faint thick clouds hovering. Ruan Jiu Jiu touched her empty stomach and finally remembered that they had not eaten dinner: “Let’s go eat.”
Outside the amusement park, there were many small stalls selling snacks such as Oden [1], cold pot skewers, fried skewers, and grilled squid.
The two people looked at each other and they understood each other’s thoughts.
Ruan Jiu Jiu followed behind Cheng Jun and ate happily, her mouth was full of oil. Cheng Jun ate a piece of small octopus balls, Ruan Jiu Jiu came forward and picked up one and stuffed it into her mouth.
“Delicious!” Her mouth was full of food, so she could only give a vague evaluation.
Cheng Jun’s expression was warm.
The noisy fireworks and dim light hit his body, making his eyebrows look better than usual, and people passing by were staring at him dumbfounded.
He stared at the woman beside him. She was delicate and lovely, her eyes were bright, and his eyes softened involuntarily.
At this time, people’s comments came to their ears.
“It’s a brother with his sister, the girl looks so young.”
“Maybe it is a couple, the kind that has a five- or six-years age difference.”
“It could be a father and a daughter, and the man’s baby face does not show his age.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu: “……”
Cheng Jun: “……”
Cheng Jun was upset on the way home.
He didn’t say a word and was silent the whole time. Ruan Jiu Jiu looked at ‘Father’ Cheng Jun who was beside her and said, “You still think about the age thing?”
The original owner was already a few years younger than Cheng Jun, and now that Ruan Jiu Jiu has cut her hair, she looks even younger, so it’s no wonder if others would say so. Cheng Jun’s appearance was very young, it’s just that she appears to be even younger, which is why she is misunderstood by others.
“Jiu Jiu.” His tone was calm, but he looked like he wanted to say something, which made Ruan Jiu Jiu nervous.
“What’s wrong?” She asked.
“I want to say ……”
“To say….?” Ruan Jiu Jiu didn’t know what she was unconsciously nervous about.
” There is a chili pepper on your teeth.”
“……”
Ruan Jiu Jiu blushed and became angry. She grabbed a pile of snow, then pinched it into a ball, and directly smashed it into Cheng Jun’s body: “Why did you not said it earlier!” At the moment, she just wants to take out a small mirror to check her appearance, which was too embarrassing!
Cheng Jun, who was hit by the snowball, remained indifferent.
In fact, he was simply joking. Ruan Jiu Jiu’s teeth were clean and white, and there was nothing in them.
Taking advantage of Ruan Jiu Jiu’s defenselessness, he suddenly turned around and throw a snowball right in the center of Ruan Jiu Jiu’s forehead.
With a snap.
Ruan Jiu Jiu’s heart became cold and, in her heart, Cheng Jun has also become cold.
She was very ruthless, turned around, and smashed a snowball into Cheng Jun’s body, but instead of hitting Cheng Jun, she received another snowball from him.
The two of them throw snowballs back and forth for a long time, Ruan Jiu Jiu suffered heavy casualties and finally could not help but roar: “Why won’t you even let me!”
Cheng Jun looked surprised, and even his tone of voice was slow: “We are not in a race.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu: “……”
At this point, Cheng Jun walked forward. As Ruan Jiu Jiu watched him, he bent his knees slightly, put his hands on his thighs, and aimed his face at the snowball in Ruan Jiu Jiu’s hand: “You can hit me.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu squeezed the snowball in her hand, and suddenly her heart softened.
“Forget it,” she threw away the snowball boringly, “Let’s go back.”
The two of them walked harmoniously on the road, facing the cold wind Ruan Jiu Jiu sneezed. Cheng Jun then sneezed as well.
‘Oh no! Hope we don’t catch a cold!’
……
At night.
The two sat on the sofa in a regular position and their cheeks were flushed. The two synchronously put towels on their foreheads and rested their backs on the sofa, just waiting for the takeaway fever-reducing medicine to come.
Cheng Jun: “Ugh.”
Ruan Jiu Jiu: “Ugh.”
