Chapter 76
However, it was difficult to take back the boast he had made, so Young Master Jiang finally went along. This was a limited-time event, and the small room temporarily built in the haunted house was much larger than the previous one. The four big words "Liao Zhai Theme" were written on the door, and the ticket office stated that entry was limited to six people.
As expected of a place that charges a fee, the fewer people there are, the better the gaming experience is, and the scarier it is.
When the time came, it was impossible for Mr. Jiang to admit that he didn't dare go in. However, Mr. Jiang, who had always been strong-willed, suddenly had an idea. He pointed to the dessert stand over there and sent Gu Jiangkuo away, saying, "I want some ice cream. Please buy me one first."
Gu Jiangkuo naturally had no objection. While he was buying ice cream, Young Master Jiang quickly ran to the ticket office, which was empty because of the separate ticketing system, and handed over a wad of cash: "We'll book the whole place! But I have a request."
.
The dessert station has a homemade internet-famous ice cream called Little Paws, which is the signature of this amusement park. It is very popular and there is still a long queue even in the middle of winter. Gu Jiangkuo is tall and stands out in the queue.
At this time, Abu finally found the area nearby and saw the tall figure in the baseball cap at a glance. Although he couldn't see the face clearly, he had observed Gu Jiangkuo's figure countless times in the video. He had broad shoulders and a narrow waist, and the proportions were very good. He was very easy to recognize. He was about 70% sure of it in his mind, and then he observed him silently, trying to see his facial features.
Watching Gu Jiangkuo walking towards the haunted house with the Two Claws ice cream, Abu followed silently. This time he finally saw Gu Jiangkuo's face clearly. Very good, this time it was completely confirmed.
The search process took some time, but the rest was easy.
Abu stretched his neck and wrists, followed with murderous intent, and watched Gu Jiangkuo hand a piece of paw-shaped ice cream to a handsome boy wearing a rabbit-ear hat, who was sitting at the door of the haunted house.
However, the handsome boy felt it was too cold after taking a few bites. Gu Jiangkuo took the ice cream and naturally finished the rest in a few bites. Then the two of them entered the haunted house side by side.
The haunted house is dark and a good place to take action.
Abu ran to the ticket office as fast as he could and bought a ticket in half-standard Chinese. But when he got to the door, he was stopped by the staff. "Excuse me, sir. The last person has reserved the whole place. Please wait for the next one."
Abu: “……?”
.
Before entering the entrance, Gu Jiangkuo looked behind him. Abu turned around quickly and pressed down his baseball cap.
Gu Jiangkuo stared at his back, frowning, and then heard Jiang Nuo say, seemingly taking credit, "Didn't you think the last game was too crowded? I booked the whole place. This way, the gaming experience will be better. How is it, are you satisfied, Mr. Birthday Boy?"
"Satisfied." Gu Jiangkuo relaxed his expression and smiled.
However, the old saying "Money makes the world go round" is true. Mr. Jiang spent some money and the effect was remarkable. The people dressed as ghosts in this scene were...especially polite!
Ning Caichen bowed as soon as they met, the beautiful woman in Painted Skin did not take off her mask from beginning to end, and Xin Shisinian even used electric fox ears to act cute.
These ghosts are cuter than Disney princesses!
...It's outrageous!
In order to save face, Mr. Jiang was very satisfied. If Gu Jiangkuo had not been present, he would have wanted to give each of the ghosts a stack of tips. However, Gu Jiangkuo was quite depressed. When he left the room, he could not hide the disappointment on his face.
The exit is a forest trail. There are no other entertainment projects here, only a circle of blue fences, which seems to be a new project that has not been completed. It is a piece of pure land in the crowded amusement park.
At this moment, a lightning-fast figure rushed out from the side of the fence!
Gu Jiangkuo, who had been hesitant all day and didn't dare to touch Young Master Jiang, first reacted by holding Jiang Nuo in his arms. Everything happened too fast. The man looked like a martial artist, with punches and kicks of great speed. Gu Jiangkuo protected Jiang Nuo and dodged the attack. The man's punch missed and landed on the iron fence, creating a deep pit!
Young Master Jiang was stunned by the shock, and then he felt a huge force pushing him back into the haunted house. Gu Jiangkuo ordered, "Don't come out."
In this bright and clear world, how could this happen?
The exit was an automatic gate with no staff on duty. Jiang Nuo knew that it would be useless to chase after him and would only cause more trouble. He was torn between calling the police or going in to ask the staff for help. The hesitation lasted only a few tens of seconds, and the situation outside had already reversed!
Abu must have received professional training. Each of his moves was carefully considered and fierce, as if he wanted to end the battle quickly. However, Gu Jiangkuo learned his skills in the alleys. Each of his moves was practical, and he had an absolute advantage in strength!
Ab was thin and fierce like a leopard, moving swiftly, while Gu Jiangkuo was like a rough and fierce lion. He took several blows from the other party, but he gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound. He found a flaw in the other party and suddenly attacked with a heavy punch!
A fist as big as a casserole hit Abu's face directly, and one of his eyes turned blue. The temporary blindness made him fall into a brief confusion. Gu Jiangkuo took the opportunity to throw another punch, and then aimed at Abu's lower abdomen, punching him hard!
Jiang Nuo: “…”
Jiang Nuo silently put down the phone that he was about to use to call the police.
But at this time, a staff member finally heard the noise and rushed over.
Tsk, what's the point of coming now? Now it's Gu Jiangkuo beating someone up, and even if he was right, he's no longer right. Looking at how badly he beat that guy, it definitely exceeded the level of self-defense. The best outcome would be excessive self-defense, and the probability is that it would be ruled as mutual assault.
Gu Jiangkuo was still in school, and Jiang Nuo didn't want him to bear any administrative punishment, and Gu Jiangkuo was obviously also worried about this. While the two were hesitating, Abu suddenly jumped up, broke free from Gu Jiangkuo's restraints, and fled like lightning.
“…”
At this time, the staff arrived, and Gu Jiangkuo finally resisted the urge to chase after him.
Seeing that it was Jiang Nuo, the big money sponsor, the staff did not suspect anything else. They just asked a few questions whether he had encountered any trouble or needed help. After receiving a negative answer, they left.
Jiang Nuo hurried to ask Gu Jiangkuo if he was okay. Gu Jiangkuo shook his head and said, "Let's go back."
Encountering such a thing, Jiang Nuo had no interest in continuing to play. The two walked in silence all the way to the parking lot. Young Master Jiang always felt that there was something subtly wrong with Gu Jiangkuo's attitude. He looked a little depressed since he came out of the second haunted house. When he met the "gangster" just now, he had obviously subdued him and had the opportunity to ask about the situation first, but he immediately beat up the gangster. The one-sided brutal beating was more like venting his nameless emotions.
Gu Jiangkuo hung his head and didn't say anything. He exuded a depressed air. Jiang Nuo didn't know what to say, so he took out his cell phone to ease the awkwardness.
——Just when I was about to call the police, I seemed to see several unread messages. I wonder if there was something going on at the company.
There were indeed a few less urgent work messages, and then I saw that in the chat room with Jiang Xia, there was first a long list of work details, and then a sudden message: "Xiao Gu, how was it? Was the haunted house fun? Haunted houses are the best dating activities for strengthening relationships, no doubt about it! Did you successfully hold Nuonuo's hand?"
Five minutes later, Jiang Xia sent a second message: "Fuck, wrong message."
Then came the third post from Jiang Xia: "Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry!!!! I kowtow and apologize.jpg"
Jiang Nuo: “………………”
No wonder Gu Jiangkuo is so keen on playing in the haunted house, no wonder he has been a little weird all day, no wonder he has a lot of emotions that need to be vented.
It turned out that he was reluctant to vent his negative emotions on himself, so he took them all out to deal with the "gangster". Jiang Nuo suddenly felt a little sorry for the gangster. He had walked into trouble. No one knew what his situation was, who sent him, what he wanted to do, why did he have to provoke Gu Jiangkuo who was in a depressed mood?
Come to think of it, is Gu Jiangkuo... going to pursue me?
Jiang Nuo had long figured out Gu Jiangkuo's thoughts, but because of many concerns and the betrayal she had suffered in her previous life, she did not dare to open her heart.
At one point, Jiang Nuo wanted to just let it go. After all, the company was busy and he didn't have much time for romance.
But now, he suddenly understood what Gu Jiangkuo had been planning all day, and a sweet and soft feeling inexplicably arose in his heart. Jiang Nuo tentatively asked, "Why aren't you talking? Are you in a bad mood, or are you feeling bad because of your injury?"
Sometimes it's like this, originally there was no hope for the delusion, can be put aside, not touched, not thought about, but once there is hope, but it is not achieved, it would be a lie to say that you are not upset. But Gu Jiangkuo was depressed, but he didn't want to vent his negative energy to Jiang Nuo. He forced an explanation: "It's nothing, I was just wondering what happened to that guy just now. It didn't seem like a robbery - ordinary robbers wouldn't pick on me. He seemed to come specifically for me. I wonder if there is any hidden reason."
"You have a point. I also think this person is suspicious. Let's check it out later." Jiang Nuo said, "If you don't have anything to be unhappy about, just smile. Today is your 20th birthday."
Seeing the handsome and delicate face of Young Master Jiang, Gu Jiangkuo felt more and more uncomfortable, and said to himself: He is like the bright moon in the sky, how can I get him? I should be content to be able to stay with him.
Gu Jiangkuo forced himself to raise the corners of his mouth, revealing a very bright but stiff smile.
Young Master Jiang couldn't bear to look at it for a moment: "Your smile is so ugly."
Gu Jiangkuo: “…”
Gu Jiangkuo helplessly retracted his smile, but suddenly felt a soft and tender hand holding his.
Gu Jiangkuo: “!!”
Jiang Nuo's heartbeat was no slower than Gu Jiangkuo's. His voice was a little tense, "What are you standing there for? Let's go."
