Chapter 48: Clearance
Su Man was taken to the bungee jumping platform by Gu Ziheng. She squeezed through the queue of tourists and said to the boss, "Boss, we want to do a double jump."
The boss looked unhappy: "Line up, come one by one."
Gu Ziheng pulled out his wallet, took out a large stack of red banknotes, and patted the boss's chest. "Is that enough?"
The tourists in the queue behind were unhappy: "Can't you see the queue? What's so great about being rich?"
"Do you want this money?" Gu Ziheng held up the red banknotes in his hand.
If it was just one or two, it would be fine, but he gave too many!
The girlfriend followed her boyfriend and whispered to him, "He's stupid and has a lot of money. Let him jump first. Wait a little longer and you'll make thousands for nothing."
The tourists all lowered their voices.
Some people even shouted, "Come on, let them jump first."
Gu Ziheng pulled Su Man to the diving platform and asked the staff to start putting equipment on them.
Gu Ziheng pointed at Su Man and said to the staff, "Put it on her first."
He knew that Su Man was afraid of heights and had no intention of actually letting Su Man jump. He just wanted to force Su Man.
If they put on the full show and really put on the equipment, Su Man would be scared.
He asked, "Manman, if you don't dare to jump, it's not too late to regret it now."
Su Man said nothing, her expression cold but resolute.
Gu Ziheng still felt that she wouldn't really dare to do that, and was just being stubborn with him.
As long as Su Man is willing to give in to him at the last moment of the jump, he will win.
Su Man put on her equipment, and the staff member turned around to put it on Gu Ziheng. At this moment, the people queuing behind her suddenly burst into screams.
Gu Ziheng subconsciously looked at Su Man, only to see that she was already standing at the edge of the diving platform.
Gu Ziheng's face turned pale: "Su Man!"
Su Man turned her back to the cliff, facing Gu Ziheng, and backed away little by little. "Gu Ziheng, you knew I was afraid of heights, but you used my weakness to threaten me. You kept saying that you loved me and cared about me, but in fact, you were just unwilling to give in."
Gu Ziheng felt inexplicably anxious. He felt like he was really going to lose Su Man. He said anxiously, "I didn't force you to jump. As long as you say you don't want to, we can go down immediately! If you're willing to give in to me now..."
Before Gu Ziheng finished speaking, Su Man raised her lips to a faint smile, "We're even this time."
She took a big step back.
Suddenly, the whole person lost weight and fell like a butterfly.
This was exactly what Xiao Beisheng saw when he arrived.
"Su Man!! Damn it!" Gu Ziheng lay on the edge of the diving platform, and the boss and staff were so scared that they rushed forward to hold him back.
"Guest, you haven't put on your device yet, so don't be impulsive."
"Yeah, it's okay. Your girlfriend is wearing a device, so it's safe. Don't worry. At worst, you can dance together again later."
Gu Ziheng exploded: "You know shit! She jumped! She jumped by herself!"
The staff member held Gu Ziheng's fist and two people worked together to drag him back from the edge of the diving platform.
Xiao Beisheng's face turned pale. He walked over and grabbed Gu Ziheng by the collar. "What's going on?"
Gu Ziheng looked at Xiao Beisheng and muttered to himself absentmindedly: "She is most afraid of heights... How can I let her go down alone..."
Xiao Beisheng pulled at his collar and yelled, "I told you to have a good talk with her, why did you end up talking about this! Is this what you promised me you wouldn't do to her?!"
Before, Gu Ziheng had been pestering Su Man and tried to kidnap her several times using extreme means. It was Xiao Beisheng who discovered it and stopped him in time.
Gu Ziheng was desperate, and Xiao Beisheng felt that it was not a solution to let him stay like this, so he made an agreement with him to help him make an appointment with Su Man so that Gu Ziheng could have a good talk with Su Man alone. If Su Man still refused to give him a chance this time, then Gu Ziheng had to let go no matter what and could not pester Su Man anymore.
These are the three rules between Xiao Beisheng and Gu Ziheng.
But unexpectedly, within the time it takes to smoke a cigarette, Gu Ziheng went crazy again.
Gu Ziheng murmured: "I didn't want her to really jump..."
Xiao Beisheng swung his fist and punched Gu Ziheng in the face.
"Didn't I tell you to stay right there and not go anywhere?"
"Didn't I ask you to finish this conversation? If she doesn't want to, will you really let her go?"
Xiao Beisheng threw punch after punch, cursing as he beat.
Gu Ziheng cried and said, "Hit me! Beat me to death! Su Man will never forgive me..."
"You fucking deserved it!" Xiao Beisheng raised his fist and was about to punch him again, but the staff over there shouted, "Come up, come up!"
Suman was pulled up by the lifting device.
Xiao Beisheng let go of Gu Ziheng and walked quickly towards the diving platform. Gu Ziheng also got up from the ground and ran over, rolling and crawling.
The moment Xiao Beisheng saw Su Man, he felt real fear.
Su Man was covered in blood, mixed with gray-brown mud spots, and was filthy. Her face was frighteningly pale at the moment, and her lips were almost colorless. She fell softly to the ground, her eyes dull.
Only after confirming that the bloodstains were not Su Man's did Xiao Beisheng feel relieved.
He went up to help Suman, but Suman gently avoided him.
As if she couldn't see Xiao Beisheng, she looked past him and went to Gu Ziheng behind him: "Gu Ziheng, is it okay? Can you let me go?"
Her voice was weak, as if she had used a lot of effort to squeeze it out of her chest.
Gu Ziheng's eyes were red, as if he was unwilling, but he didn't dare to refuse.
Xiao Beisheng asked her: "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Su Man didn't look at him, her eyes fixed on the void, "I can't stand up anymore."
Xiao Beisheng went over to help her. Su Man really couldn't use any strength in her limbs. She was so thin, and she felt particularly heavy at this moment. Xiao Beisheng simply picked her up horizontally.
If possible, Su Man didn't want to get close to Xiao Beisheng or let him touch her, but in this situation, she had no other choice.
Xiao Beisheng brought her back to their camp. Everyone was shocked when they saw Su Man.
"How did going to the bathroom turn out like this?"
"What happened?"
Everyone gathered around to care for Su Man, and Gu Ziheng followed. When everyone saw Gu Ziheng losing blood all over his body, they seemed to understand something.
Su Man asked Xiao Beisheng to put her on the chair, and Xiao Beisheng did so.
Su Man covered her chest and suddenly her breathing became rapid. For no reason, her clothes were soaked with sweat.
Xiao Beisheng saw that she was not in a good state and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with you?"
He turned and yelled at Gu Ziheng: "Why is she like this?"
Gu Ziheng shook his head in surprise: "I don't know..."
"Her symptoms are a bit like a panic attack. When a patient is highly sensitive to the environment and is overly frightened, it will trigger hyperventilation syndrome, leading to respiratory alkali poisoning, hypokalemia, and numbness of the hands and feet." said an alumnus.
Xiao Beisheng studied psychology for a period of time and knew about this disease.
This symptom can be relieved by the patient on his own after a few minutes, but in severe cases, it may also cause respiratory alkali poisoning.
If not handled properly or promptly, it may be life-threatening, and in the worst cases, death.
