Chapter 1022 - Wu Jinpeng’s Debut (2/2)
“But we have already bought the tickets. Do you want us to come out and wait for such a long queue again? We don’t mind paying more. I just don’t want to waste any more time.” It was a polite-looking man who spoke. He wore spectacles. He was about 1.85 meters tall with long legs, and every piece of clothing he had on was branded. Indeed, he did not look like he was in need of money.
“There’s no need to worry about safety precautions. I promise you that even if something happens to us, we will not press any charges against your establishment.” Another man stepped forth. He was in sportswear. His body was well built with clear wiry muscles. However, he was not that old and was not that careful with his words.
“I know that you don’t mind spending money, but those are the rules. You can choose one of the scenarios first, then decide after you finish the visitation. You might change your idea then,” Chen Ge suggested.
“Ah Wen, Xiao Jie, we could consider that. After all, we’ve been waiting for so long already.” The last to speak was the only girl among the trio. She was in her mid-twenties. She looked cute and innocent but had a stabilizing presence about her. She attracted the guys’ attention easily.
“Why don’t you start with Mu Yang High School?” Chen Ge led the three of them and two other visitors to enter the haunted house. By then, Wu Jinpeng had almost recovered. “Brother Peng, you should follow the five of them to challenge a two-star scenario.”
“Can’t you give me more time to rest?”
“You’re only delaying the inevitable.” Chen Ge put away the disclaimers and led the group to the underground entrance. “Before we start, I have to warn you all again. Please stay in the scenario that you’re supposed to visit. Do not wander off into other scenarios.”
Opening the iron door that led underground, a chilly breeze cut at them. Wu Jinpeng, who stood next to Chen Ge, shivered. “You have an underground scenario too?”
“The fun is only beginning.” Chen Ge watched them walk down the stairs. He did not close the door but stared at the woman’s back. He was sure that he had just met that woman, but she gave him a familiar feeling.
“The way the other two guys look at her was filled with love, but she was not interested in them at all. There was a well-hidden resentment hidden inside her eyes. And she kept unintentionally hiding behind the two guys so that she wouldn’t interact directly with me. She has never directed her eyes at me either like she is purposely moving her gaze away from me.” Chen Ge eventually closed the door. “Something’s wrong.”
Carrying the backpack, Chen Ge hurried to the surveillance room to follow the movement of this batch of visitors.
…
After the door closed, the woman instantly sidled up to Wu Jinpeng. “Uncle, are you a worker here? I saw that you were having such friendly chat with the boss earlier. I’ve heard that the boss occasionally sends his employees in with the visitors to scare them.”
“I’ll come clean. I am a worker here, but this is my first day. I don’t know anything.” Wu Jinpeng surrendered easily. “In fact, I might hide behind you later. I’m sorry. This must have given you a bad impression of the workers here.”
“Hehe, you’re quite an interesting man. I am Shen Mengbing. What’s yours?”
“My name is Wu Jinpeng.”
“That’s such a country bumpkin name.” The woman had a wonderful smile. She wanted to chat some more with Wu Jinpeng, but the two guys walked over, and they expertly squeezed Wu Jinpeng to the side.
