Shen Yulou turned to leave, but the man behind her wrapped one arm around her slender waist.

"No, it's just a tiny little bit of fun, you're not angry, are you?"

Chi Yuan gestured with two fingers to indicate that this was a very, very small matter.

"Yeah, I'm angry. I'm a stingy person."

As Shen Yulou spoke, he tried to remove Chi Yuan's hand.

Seeing that he was too weak to resist, Chi Yuan ignored him and pressed him against the stairs to kiss him.

Only after warming people up with your enthusiasm can you let them go.

"And now?"

"don't want!"

Shen Yulou's face was flushed, but he was still being stubborn.

Are you kidding me? Then stop playing around and go to sleep.

"three times!"

Chi Yuan grabbed Shen Yulou, who was about to step out of his arms, and pulled him back.

Shen Yulou stopped in his tracks.

"true and false?"

They actually gave up their own benefits?

That's really rare.

"Really! Just three times."

Listening to Chi Yuan's confident voice, Shen Yulou silently made plans in his mind.

Three times... that's not impossible.

It feels good, but it won't kill you.

He nodded slightly to indicate his agreement.

"You agreed?"

Chi Yuan was overjoyed.

"Rock, paper, scissors. Whoever wins becomes the one who searches, and the loser becomes the one who hides."

"If the person who is hiding is not caught within half an hour, then he wins; if he is caught, then he loses."

"The winner has the right to request a role swap in the next round, or they can keep it unchanged."

"There is another requirement: no lights are allowed during the mission."

Shen Yulou explained the rules of the mission and stretched out his hand to play rock-paper-scissors with Chi Yuan.

"Rock, paper, scissors!"

Shen Yulou shook his hand, and opened his eyes at the last moment.

He is the cloth, and Chi Yuan is the scissors.

We lost.

"Go, lie on the wall, close your eyes, and don't peek."

Shen Yulou pushed Chi Yuan's head against the wall, using his arms to shield his eyes.

"30 seconds to go! 3, 2, 1, go!"

Shen Yulou ran away immediately after finishing the countdown.

Chi Yuanlang's loud countdown sounded like a death knell, making Shen Yulou's heart pound like thunder.

But it doesn't matter, that's the kind of excitement I want.

He was breathing heavily, controlling the force of each step he took so that he couldn't make a sound.

Where should it be hidden?

Shen Yulou looked around, ran into the bedroom, and then ran out of the bedroom again.

No, Chi Yuan knows this place too well. It's so close, he'll find it very quickly.

"15, 14, 13..."

Half the time has passed.

Shen Yulou was so nervous that cold sweat poured down his forehead as he groped his way forward in the darkness.

"10, 9, 8..."

I went down the stairs to the first floor and hid in the kitchen cabinet under the pots and pans as the countdown ended in three seconds.

"Are you ready? I'm coming to find you..."

The suddenly amplified voice carried a chilling hint of laughter.

Shen Yulou trembled slightly.

"My dear, where are you?"

The sweet voice seemed so close, it felt like Chi Yuan was about to pop out from beside him at any moment.

The sound of a door opening came from the second floor; it must have been Chi Yuan opening his bedroom door.

Shen Yulou breathed a sigh of relief and pressed his hand against his rapidly pounding heart.

That was terrifying, but also incredibly exciting.

He was thankful he didn't have a heart condition, otherwise he would have died on the spot during the game.

What will Chi Yuan do to him after he captures him?

Many inappropriate thoughts and scenes for children came to mind.

But actually, that's not the scariest part.

Anyone who has played hide-and-seek knows that the scariest moment is when he finds you.

I feel like my heart has died.

"I can't find you... You really know how to hide..."

Chi Yuan's self-talk echoed in the room.

Oh no, this isn't talking to myself; it's being said to Shen Yulou.

Why is there no sound?

Where did they go?

After a while, the surroundings became quiet again.

Chi Yuan didn't speak, and Shen Yulou couldn't hear any sound from the moving objects.
