Fu Jue felt emotionally exhausted; Gu Qingqing's behavior was more manly than any man's.

Other girls, upon seeing a ghost, even if it's a person in disguise, would scream in fear and cry, burying themselves in the boy's arms.

She was quite something else; when she saw something scary, instead of screaming or crying, she laughed so loudly that she made the staff dressed as ghosts laugh.

"Qingqing, stop laughing." Fu Jue led her away from the "abandoned hospital" and to a cemetery.

Nothing scary has appeared to frighten them yet.

"Hehehe...Master Fu, what am I going to do if I can't stop laughing? Hahaha—" Gu Qingqing clutched her stomach and laughed nonstop, wrinkles appearing at the corners of her eyes.

No, no, I can't take it anymore.

If she keeps laughing, her stomach will hurt so badly she'll have to go to the hospital.

Fu Jue had no choice but to cover her mouth and pull her to hide in the corner.

Because there were figures not far away, because it was the zombie crew who heard her laughter and came out to work.

"Qingqing, don't make a sound. Let's hide here." Fu Jue glanced at her. If they ran any further, he'd be in the hospital soon too.

They had been running for almost ten minutes, with him pulling her the whole way. Even though he exercises regularly, it was still a bit tiring for him.

Gu Qingqing blinked her big eyes and nodded at him.

Because if she doesn't agree, he will keep covering her mouth.

This is a bit uncomfortable.

"Be good, don't make a sound, I'll buy you a lollipop later." Fu Jue tempted her with a lollipop.

Gu Qingqing pouted, her face full of disdain.

He wanted to bribe her with a lollipop?

Don't even think about it!

Fu Jue let go of her hand, stared at her, and only when he was sure she wouldn't make a sound on purpose or run off to play did he feel relieved.

Let's rest first, then we'll take her away from the haunted house later. This place isn't fun at all.

There are so many zombies outside.

They were jumping and bouncing, looking like they were having a lot of fun.

Hidden in a corner, concealed by decorations, Gu Qingqing peeked out from behind a corner of the wall at the several zombies jumping around outside.

My heart was pounding with excitement; if it kept beating any faster, I'd be on strike.

I really want to go out.

But……

Master Fu will be angry.

If he gets angry, she doesn't know how to coax him.

However, he doesn't seem to have ever lost his temper with her.

However, even though he never lost his temper with her, she knew that he had a bad temper, and she dared not deliberately provoke him or challenge his bottom line and dignity.

To become the world's richest person and remain at the top for decades requires remarkable skills and exceptional intelligence!

With Fu Jue watching her intently, Gu Qingqing didn't dare to move. She could only blink pitifully at him, hoping to gain his sympathy and get him to let her go out and play for a while.

Fu Jue remained silent, ignoring her subtle actions.

"Master Fu, zombies can smell human breath. If you don't want to be discovered by them, you have to hold your breath. How about we have a contest to see who can hold their breath the longest?"

She came up with a plan to prank him.

"They're not real zombies."

The implication is that Gu Qingqing is an idiot, and I don't play with idiots.

Fu Jue glanced at her, his cold gaze seemingly looking down on all living beings and surveying the world with disdain.

Gu Qingqing pretended not to see his reaction, pinched her nose, and shut her mouth.

Staring at Fu Jue for one second, two seconds, three seconds

Fu Jue gave in and did as he was told, pinching his nose and closing his mouth.

The two of them then started playing this silly game of holding their breath.

——

On the other side, Grandpa Fu and Assistant Yin also arrived at the "cemetery".

The two stood in a secluded spot, watching several "zombies" jumping around in the distance, but they couldn't see Fu Jue and Gu Qingqing.

"Where are those two? Why did they run away so quickly?" No matter how hard Grandpa Fu looked, he couldn't find Fu Jue. This kid's hiding skills are really superb; he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"They should still be here, just hidden." Assistant Yin was certain that Fu Jue and Gu Qingqing were still at the "graveyard".

Because he couldn't possibly run far with her.

"You need to find a way to lure them out. What's the point of hiding like this?"

Grandpa Fu was not satisfied with the haunted house's effect. He had just seen Gu Qingqing not being scared by the fierce ghosts in front of her, but instead laughing non-stop, which almost made him laugh as well.

"Oh." Assistant Yin felt helpless and frustrated.

These past two days, I've been constantly being bossed around by Old Master Fu, racking my brains to find a way to bring Fu Jue and Gu Qingqing together.

My brain cells are almost all dead.

He wants to go on strike, he doesn't want a promotion or a raise, and he doesn't want a girlfriend anymore.

"Also, make those staff members be more professional and scare Qingqing so she'll snuggle into that brat's arms." Old Master Fu's long white beard trembled.

"Understood." Assistant Yin walked away listlessly with her head down to find the person in charge of the haunted house for help.

——

Gu Qingqing watched as several zombies jumped around outside, scaring a few tourists.

She was so excited that her shoulders were shaking, and she was waving her hands at the air as if she was about to rush out and fight those zombies.

"Master Fu, let's go out."

“Okay.” Fu Jue agreed immediately.

"Oh? Really?" She couldn't believe he had agreed so quickly.

"Really, let's go out." Seeing that the time was right, Fu Jue grabbed Gu Qingqing and rushed out.

If we don't rush out now, when will we?

Now that those tourists have attracted the "zombies," there are no more "zombies" chasing the two of them.

"Hey, over here, Master Fu—" Gu Qingqing was pulled by him to run in another direction. Looking at the "zombie" getting further and further away from her, she was both angry and sad.

Master Fu learned to lie.

She clearly wanted to go out and play with the "zombies," but she never expected that he would drag her away without her consent.
