Chapter 80 You're not afraid of ghosts, are you?
I woke up way too early this morning, and due to strong objections from the guests, the recording was suspended at noon, and everyone went back to catch up on sleep.
It was already evening when we gathered again.
The four groups can choose their own challenge games based on last night's game rankings.
The card offers a variety of attractions, including a Ferris wheel, a vertical lift, a pirate ship, and a haunted house.
Fan Mengmeng kept complaining that she was afraid of heights, but Song Nian'an, considering that Sister Weiwei and the others were seniors, still gave them the privilege of being the first choice.
Anxing and Weiwei, with expressions of gratitude that saving a life was a great achievement, sang "A Heart Full of Gratitude."
Sure enough, they're all veterans of variety shows.
They chose the most peaceful Ferris wheel.
After considering it for a moment, Song Nian'an decided that the safest option was probably the haunted house. After all, she had been an NPC at Happy Valley before and knew the scary parts of the haunted house.
Let's choose a haunted house!
After saying that, Wen Jing's expression turned sour.
He's inherently competitive, but if word gets out that he's afraid of ghosts, his image as a CEO will be ruined.
He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath, and nodded in a gentlemanly manner.
Wen Siyan and Shen Zhuangyue chose the pirate ship, leaving Fan Mengmeng and Shen Ye with the most thrilling vertical lift in the amusement park.
Fan Mengmeng restrained her urge to hit someone and pinched Chen Ye's buttocks with her back to the camera.
After selecting their project and preparing to depart, Shen Zhuangyue hugged Wen Siyan and started acting coquettishly.
"Si Yan, I haven't rested well these past few days, so I can't ride that pirate ship. I'm also afraid of heights."
When the PD heard Shen Zhuangyue's complaints, he knew that she wasn't saying it to Wen Siyan, but rather wanted him to step in and mediate.
He stepped forward and said, "Hey Yueyue, do you think the vertical lift is higher? Why don't we discuss it with Wen Jing's team?"
Wen Siyan was completely approachable in front of everyone, with a friendly smile and polite, sincere speech, which made him quite popular.
He then said, "Nian'an, Yueyue doesn't seem to be feeling well either, why don't we switch?"
Shen Zhuangyue's aggrieved look was truly endearing.
Weiwei leaned over and hugged her. "It's okay, Xiao An is a very nice person. She'll switch with you."
“I didn’t mean to, I was really scared. It’s okay if Nian’an and the others don’t agree, I can overcome my own fear.”
[Ugh, that little green tea bitch Shen Zhuangyue is at it again, all alluding to her. And everyone's siding with her. I don't want to ride the pirate ship; all that rocking and swaying will make my face contort, and I might even throw up. No wonder Shen Zhuangyue doesn't want to go.]
The hall was unusually quiet as everyone waited for Wen Jing and Song Nian'an's response.
Now that things have come to this, Song Nian'an has no choice but to resort to his trump card.
He will not yield an inch!
He slowly raised his head and said, "I'm sorry, PD, I'm sorry everyone, I really... can't... stand in a high place."
Wen Jing immediately understood what he meant; he wanted to see what kind of trouble Song Nian'an could cause.
Tears, tears, squeeze them out for me.
Song Nian'an went through all the sad things in her mind.
[If Wen Jing cheats on me with a younger man and then divorces me...]
[No, what if Wen Jing had ultimately chosen a normal family, a well-bred lady from a respectable social class, and lived a life as a family of three...]
No, that's not sad enough. If Wen Jing broke up with me for a woman ten years older than him...
Wen Jing: ....
[No, we've gone off-topic. I want to laugh.]
Song Nian'an sniffled, tears streaming down her face. "When I was little, my father cheated on me and brought my older brother home. My mother jumped off a building right in front of me. Ever since then, I get very nervous whenever I see a tall building, because it reminds me of my mother..."
The pear blossoms, wet with rain, are a sight that evokes pity.
He closed his eyes, suppressing his tears, and forced a smile. "It's okay, I know it will all pass."
He turned around and threw himself into Wen Jing's arms.
Why isn't he reacting at all? He's not even coming over to cooperate with me.
The guests' eyes welled up with tears as they listened.
"Isn't this PTSD? Poor Nian'an. Let's not change it!!"
"Yes, yes, he's so young and he's already gone through so much. It really breaks my heart."
Shen Zhuangyue rolled her eyes and said in a cold tone, "She is so pitiful."
But this one scene was captured by the cameraman.
Wen Siyan watched with great interest. He didn't know that Song Nian'an had this side to her, which aroused a strange possessiveness in him.
His jawline tightened, the casual smile in his eyes vanished, and his gaze fell on Song Nian'an.
Song Nian'an didn't even glance at him.
Wen Jing raised her eyes, blocking Wen Siyan's view, her eyelids lifted, and said slowly, "We won't switch."
The guests present were unaware of the undercurrents between the two and even nodded in support of Wen Jing, telling him to take good care of Song Nian'an's feelings.
This trajectory can be described as full of ups and downs.
Seeing that the two families were not easy to deal with, the PD acted as a peacemaker, saying, "How about this, you two go to the haunted house together, and you don't have to ride the pirate ship."
Song Nian'an wanted to shake her head and refuse, but then she thought that they were still recording a program and she couldn't let everyone lose face.
Besides, my behavior just now was already quite pretentious...
If you establish a persona that's hard to negotiate with, you'll definitely be subjected to cyberbullying.
Song Nian'an nodded, and Wen Jing, sitting beside her, took Song Nian'an's hand.
"Yueyue, do you think this is okay?"
Wen Siyan chimed in, "We should be the ones feeling embarrassed. We've troubled everyone, we're really sorry."
This part was quickly moved on, and everyone got on the bus and headed to the amusement park.
Inside the car, Wen Jing tossed a pack of cigarettes and a pair of noise-canceling headphones to the photographer.
The photographer tactfully turned off his camera and put on headphones.
Wen Jing said, "Your expressiveness surpasses that of even veteran actors with ten years of experience."
Song Nian'an stuck out her tongue at Wen Jing.
"Otherwise, how could you have been chosen by the company to act in the drama invested by President Wen? Isn't that just a way of showing that you have a unique eye?"
"You're quite the talker." Wen Jing looked at him with interest.
"It's a pity we still have to go into the haunted house with them later, but it's still better than going on the pirate ship. Only kids are afraid of haunted houses. We'll just rush in and see how foreign ghosts are different from our domestic ghosts."
Listening to Song Nian'an's rapid-fire monologue, Wen Jing's expression turned sour.
My mind is filled with thoughts of children being afraid.
He had never been to a haunted house in his life.
When I was a child, I often heard people tell stories about ghosts eating people.
I watched Final Destination with my classmates once in elementary school, and I wet my pants.
Now it was his turn to mentally prepare himself.
"What's wrong, honey? You don't look well." Song Nian'an turned to look at Wen Jing when he remained silent for a while.
"You don't want to go into the haunted house with them, do you? It's okay, the PD just told me that we have different entrances and we won't run into each other."
Wen Jing has already started reciting the Vajra Mantra in his mind.
"husband?"
"boss?"
"Wen Jing!"
Wen Jing revealed a hint of melancholy.
"You're not afraid of ghosts, are you?!" Song Nian'an felt she had found Wen Jing's weakness!
From then on, whenever Wen Jing returned home, Song Nian'an would wear some strange costumes that she had worn while cosplaying as a ghost at Happy Valley, or play pranks like swallowing a sword and being a vampire to scare him.
But that's another story.
