Chapter 529: Bungee Jumping Accident
The staff hung up the horizontal bars and fastened their safety belts one by one. Bai Qiujing was the last one. He had never played these games before and was a little nervous for his first time, so he distracted his attention to Shen Zhichu.
"Are you scared?"
Shen Zhichu shook her head, appearing even calmer than Bai Qiujing. In fact, she didn't know whether she would be afraid or not.
Seeing this height, I suddenly wanted to feel the weightlessness of falling from a high altitude. This height...
Shen Zhichu looked up and saw that her father had died by falling from a height almost like this.
Other people came to the amusement park to play and relax, but she was thinking about these things... Maybe it was because she dreamed about Shen Changnan last night, which made her overly sensitive.
The staff member interrupted her thoughts and said, "Okay."
The machine started to start. Bai Qiujing gripped the bars on both sides, turned his head and looked at Shen Zhichu's slightly pale face, his brows softened: "I'm here, don't be afraid."
Shen Zhichu glanced at Bai Qiujing and felt that something was unusual and not right, but that strange feeling came up suddenly and he couldn't tell what was wrong.
The machine started and began to rise slowly. Shen Zhichu finally found something wrong. When the staff fastened Bai Qiujing's seat belt just now, there seemed to be no buckling sound.
Almost instantly, Shen Zhichu's mind went blank. As expected, he saw that Bai Qiujing's seat belt was loose. She screamed on the spot: "Stop! The seat belt is loose!"
However, it was too late. The plane rose into the air and suddenly soared upwards. Shen Zhichu's voice was drowned in the whistling wind. The people around her were screaming, and no one could hear her even if she shouted at the top of her lungs.
Bai Qiujing, who was closest to her, heard it clearly. The moment the safety belt loosened, he realized that it was impossible for the person to wear a safety belt when he was in the air. He was helpless in the rapidly rising air current. Fortunately, there was a safety railing in the middle. He held on to the railing tightly and fell down when the bungee jumping machine reached the highest altitude. The strong feeling of weightlessness made his butt move.
Without the protection of a seat belt, people could easily be thrown out. Shen Zhichu turned his head to look at her. He was struggling and shaking violently in his seat. His eyes were red and tears fell uncontrollably with the wind.
Some people would scream out of fear, but Chen Zhichu was different. The more scared he became, the quieter he became. He just bit his lips and looked pale, as if he had lost his soul.
So this is what it feels like to fall from a high altitude. It's very scary, and my whole body is filled with fear. I'm so scared that I feel cold and sweaty all over.
It's not like Shen Zhichu had never seen people jumping off a bungee before. It felt very fast once, but this time it felt very long.
Bai Qiujing said something beside him, but Shen Zhichu didn't hear a word. Her mind was full of thoughts that Bai Qiujing's safety belt was loose and he was very likely to fall from such a high place like her father.
After the plane stopped, everyone unbuckled their seat belts and left. Only Shen Zhichu was still sitting on the chair. Her face was pale, as if she was the one who had just experienced life and death.
Bai Qiujing immediately propped up the safety railing in front of him, then grabbed Shen Zhichu's hand, repeating, "It's okay, don't worry, nothing happened."
Bai Qiujing was also scared, but now he was more worried about Shen Zhichu. Shen Zhichu bit his lower lip so hard that it bled.
Bai Qiujing bent his waist, holding Shen Zhichu's cold face, and rubbing her ears with his fingertips from time to time.
"Chu Chu, look at me. I am still standing in front of you."
Shen Zhichu's dilated pupils slowly gathered together, and Bai Qiujing's figure appeared in her eyes again. She suddenly opened her mouth and burst into tears. The sound was very miserable, piercing through the noisy voices around her. She wailed to the extreme. She reached out and hooked her hands around Bai Qiujing's neck, and her whole body trembled in his arms.
What would she do if something happened to Bai Qiujing...and disappeared in front of her?
The staff member came over to apologize, but Shen Zhichu just stared at him fiercely and said it was careless. Can this make up for everything?
Shen Zhichu's gaze was as if she wanted to hit someone, and the staff member stepped back guiltily, not daring to look her in the eye.
The management staff also came over. Something happened here, and the crowd gathered to watch.
"What's going on?"
"It seems the seat belt wasn't fastened properly. Let's discuss compensation."
"Why do those two look a bit like Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing to me?"
More and more people recognized Shen Zhichu and Bai Qiujing. Bai Qiujing didn't want to make a big deal out of it. He had finally managed to find some time to date Shen Zhichu and spend some time alone together, and he didn't want to waste his time on this.
Bai Qiujing didn't even bother to look at the compensation the staff mentioned. Besides, apart from being a little frightened, he wasn't injured.
Bai Qiujing took Shen Zhichu's hand and left here.
As Shen Zhichu walked, he looked back at the staff members in charge of the bungee jumping machine.
The staff here are all professionals, and it is impossible for them to be so careless as to forget to fasten the seat belt. She clearly remembered that the staff checked the seat belt again and again and pulled it outwards when fastening it for her.
So... they did it on purpose?
Shen Zhichu felt a chill all over his body after realizing it, and the first person that came to his mind was Li Jingshen.
Given Li Jingshen's current situation, he is indeed capable of doing anything. For him, it is just a matter of dragging someone down with him.
