Chapter 201 Bah, pretty boy!

The director looked at the young couple who seemed to be strolling around the haunted house with a look of utter despair.

Seeing this, the assistant, who hadn't spoken until now, cautiously asked, "Director, should we still let the extras come on?"

People are willing to come to their instance as extras or NPCs just to get a bite of human flesh, not to get beaten up.

What if they come to their production team and cause trouble after the show ends?

The director had obviously thought of this as well, and waved his hand listlessly: "Forget it, forget it."

He was utterly exasperated by these two ancestors. He had thought Ling Wu was already terrifying enough, but he hadn't expected Jiang Liyue to be just as formidable.

When beating up the weirdo, he strikes with such speed that it's as if he's already done it hundreds of times.

Otherwise, why would they be a couple?

On the bright side, at least with just the two of them on screen, the live stream's popularity would be much higher.

Thinking about this, the director was a little frustrated. His carefully designed variety show segment was lukewarm, while the audience loved watching the two young couple being all lovey-dovey.

Is he really a failed dating reality show director?

The director looked at his assistant with a hint of self-doubt: "Was my segment not interesting enough? Why do audiences love this kind of thing these days?"

Shouldn't we be watching the bloody, terrifying, heart-pounding hunting scenes, and the meticulously designed horror sequences?

The assistant heard his question and looked at the screen in the broadcasting studio.

At that moment, the screen showed Jiang Liyue and Ling Wu again. The tall, eerie boss buried himself in his girlfriend's neck, his voice pitiful: "Yueyue, it's so dark and scary here..."

However, his eyes remained fixed on Jiang Liyue's profile in the darkness, as if he were a apex predator eyeing its delicious prey.

The assistant, watching for a while, developed a maternal smile. Recalling the director's earlier question, she hesitated, "It's true that romance is beautiful..."

He loves watching it too!

However, it would be even better if the male ghost in the story could be replaced by him, hehe.

However, looking at the dilapidated control room that Ling Wu had just destroyed this morning, he swallowed hard.

Well, actually shipping couples isn't so bad.

director:……

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Jiang Liyue patted Ling Wu's head symbolically; his hair was thick and black.

It looks hard, but it feels surprisingly soft to the touch.

Ling Wu said he was afraid of the dark, and took the opportunity to rest his head on her neck. His soft hair rubbed against her neck, making her feel a little itchy.

It's more like a puppy being affectionate.

Jiang Liyue had never owned a dog, but she felt that if she had one, it would probably be like Ling Wu's.

So even though she knew that Ling Wu was just adding drama to her life, Jiang Liyue couldn't help but feel soft and affectionate.

What could the puppy have done wrong?

He just wanted to get close to his owner.

It's also because the two of them hadn't encountered any "ghosts" in the haunted house for a long time that Ling Wu was willing to admit he was afraid of the dark in order to get closer to her.

This is a long corridor with only dim lights on both sides, which flicker occasionally.

The walls on both sides were dirty, with red handprints and crooked handwriting that read "Run!"

It is indeed enough to instill fear.

Unfortunately, the two people present were so focused on sticking things together that they didn't notice the strange environment at all.

Just as the two were getting all lovey-dovey, footsteps finally came from the darkness.

Ling Wu's eyes lit up, and he lifted his head from her neck.

The arrival of an NPC means he can take the opportunity to kiss Yueyue again.

But the first to appear wasn't the eerie NPC from the haunted house, but rather the fourth male player who was running away in a panic.

He lost a hand yesterday and has wounds of varying degrees all over his body. I don't know what he went through in the haunted house. His face was full of fear, and he looked extremely disheveled.

His strange girlfriend wasn't with him, and it was unclear whether she had gotten lost.

Upon seeing Jiang Liyue and Ling Wu not far away, the fourth male player's eyes lit up with surprise, and he seemed to run even faster, shouting, "Help! Help me!"

As he ran closer, Jiang Liyue saw a strange figure covered in blood following closely behind him.

It ran away with its mouth wide open and its face contorted in a ferocious manner, its eyes filled with the excitement of being about to enjoy a feast.

The fourth male player used all his strength to run very fast, and in a few moments he reached Jiang Liyue and Ling Wu.

The eerie creature behind him became even more excited.

If he encounters other people, doesn't that mean he can eat more humans today?

Then, with a strange excitement, he looked up and met Jiang Liyue's smiling eyes.

His contorted expression froze.

Help! How did I run into this monster?!

Seeing the smile on Jiang Liyue's face, the eerie NPC turned and ran without thinking, seemingly even faster than when it chased the fourth male player.

After running quite a distance, Wei Yi finally managed to straighten his head, which was swaying precariously from running.

I glanced back carefully and breathed a sigh of relief when I saw that no one was chasing me.

What a close call! If that fiend had caught him, he would have been beaten up.

In just a few hours, Jiang Liyue's infamous reputation had spread throughout the entire haunted house. As one of the people who had just been beaten up not long ago, Guiyi just wanted to run away.

Jiang Liyue blinked innocently as she watched the strange, frantic figure flee.

Is she really that scary?

Ling Wu was furious. Why were they running so fast? He hadn't even had time to be afraid yet!

But is it still not too late to be afraid now?

Ling Wu leaned against Jiang Liyue pitifully and said, "Yueyue, I was scared by a ghost."

It needs a kiss every month to get better!

Jiang Liyue: ...Someone's tone when lying to their sweetheart is getting more and more practiced.

However, she still leaned over and gave him a comforting kiss on the forehead.

Neither she nor Ling Wu paid any attention to the fourth male player, who was leaning against the wall and panting, two meters away.

After catching his breath, the fourth male player turned around and looked behind him. The strange creature that had been chasing him was no longer there.

Then he heard Ling Wu's coquettish words.

Looking up, she saw that Ling Wu, such a big guy, was actually bending over and trying to rub against Jiang Liyue.

She rubbed against me while acting cute, saying she was scared.

Bah! What a brothel-like act! A gigolo!

But when his gaze shifted to Jiang Liyue, he realized that he wasn't incapable after all...

After all, Jiang Liyue doesn't look like a female ghost at all.

Her face was fair and radiant, with delicate and beautiful features. In the real world, she would be a star, and she was even rarer in the game.

Moreover, the strange creature that had been chasing him earlier ran away as soon as it saw the female ghost.

This proves that she is stronger than that weirdo.

If I could get close to her, wouldn't I be able to survive well in the dungeon too?

Didn't you see that pretty boy? He's so timid, afraid of the dark and ghosts, yet he didn't get hurt at all in the dungeon thanks to the female ghost?

The more male player number four thought about it, the more feasible he felt his idea was.

He looked at Ling Wu's face and confidently felt that he and this pretty boy weren't that different.

He might be willing to accept being a kept man.
