Shen Yan, holding a flashlight, retraced his steps to explore alternative routes.
When I returned to the front door of the classroom, the lights that were still dim suddenly went out.
"What happened?"
Chen Yu's heart was in her throat. She hugged Chen Yan tightly around the waist, not daring to open her eyes.
"I don't know, it didn't feel like a haunted house event. Was there a power outage?"
Shen Yan shared his guess.
The couple hugged each other tightly, and the boy occasionally made whimpering sounds.
"Dear visitors, we are very sorry that there is a power outage in the haunted house. You will need to wait for 20 minutes. We apologize for the inconvenience."
The speaker overhead emitted a sound, and Shen Yan breathed a sigh of relief; it was indeed as he had guessed.
When the power went out, the air conditioning in the haunted house was also turned off, and the temperature in the enclosed space began to rise.
The NPCs all crawled out from the heat.
An NPC dressed as Sadako appeared right in front of Chen Yu.
The two looked at each other, and Chen Yu exclaimed.
Shen Yan immediately covered Chen Yu's eyes, and the NPC was also startled. She took off her long hair.
"Excuse me, this is the only way out of my place."
"It's alright, it's alright."
Shen Yan responded to Chen Yu.
Twenty minutes passed quickly. Chen Yu hadn't left Chen Yan's side the whole time. She was secretly pleased, but the sudden power outage in the haunted house was still a bit scary no matter what.
The staff waited until the power was turned on in the haunted house, then went in and brought everyone out.
They also gave the tourists a lovely little gift, saying it was compensation.
Chen Yu looked at the blue doll in her hand, which was the mascot of the amusement park, and felt that it was acceptable.
In the following days, Chen Yu also lost interest in having fun and went home with Shen Yan early.
The two barely spoke the rest of the way. Chen Yu was startled and her mood became somewhat low. She scrolled through her phone screen.
Although the haunted house experience wasn't great, the close encounter with Shen Yan was still a perfect score.
Next, we'll go see a movie!
She had originally planned to see a horror movie that night, but after visiting the haunted house, she changed her mind and chose a comedy instead.
"Chen Yan, shall we go to the movies next weekend?"
"Hmm, let me see. I'm afraid I'll have to work overtime."
Hearing Shen Yan say this, Chen Yu felt a pang of disappointment, and simply said "oh" without saying anything more.
The page remained in the pending payment state, and after thinking about it, Chen Yu closed it.
If she buys Shen Yan's movie ticket but doesn't have time, then she doesn't want to watch the movie either.
Back home, Chen Yu remained depressed, a fact that Shen Yan noticed.
He was tongue-tied and didn't know what to say to Chen Yu, so he could only tell the store manager to give him a day off next weekend.
The store manager was initially hesitant, as he was very capable and efficient, while the other employees were more seasoned and experienced.
Shen Yan came up with a very lame excuse, saying that it was his grandmother's birthday, which he had seen when he was organizing leave slips at class.
Therefore, they follow suit.
The store manager still went along with Shen Yan's wishes and scheduled him to rest on the weekend.
Shen Yan knocked on Chen Yu's room door. "Chen Yu, may I come in?"
"Can."
Chen Yu was lying on the bed playing on her phone when she saw Shen Yan come in, so she put it down.
"Um, I can go see a movie this weekend."
"real?"
Chen Yu visibly became happy. Shen Yan smiled and nodded. Chen Yu immediately picked up his phone to buy tickets, but after thinking for a moment, he handed the phone back to Shen Yan and asked him which movie he wanted to watch.
After a long period of deliberation, Shen Yan chose the same movie as Chen Yu—a comedy.
Chen Yu wanted to place an order, but Shen Yan stopped her, saying, "I'll buy it."
"ah?"
Shen Yan took out his phone from his pocket and bought movie tickets following Chen Yu's instructions.
After finishing with Chen Yan, he went out.
Chen Yu was somewhat surprised, thinking, "One second they said they might be free, and the next second they are?"
She couldn't help but ponder what exactly had made Shen Yan change his mind.
For a whole week, Chen Yu walked around the neighborhood downstairs.
He often teases the dog downstairs or other people's kids.
She felt that she had successfully entered the life of an elderly person.
Thursday evening.
Chen Kang took a stack of document bags home.
"Yu Yu, you have nothing to do, help Dad organize these things."
Chen Yu looked at the huge stack of file folders and almost fainted. "Does it really have to be done now?"
"It's urgent, it needs to be finished by Sunday."
Chen Yu suddenly felt like the sky had fallen.
As soon as she finished eating, she sat in the living room working on documents. She had helped Chen Kang with them before, so she knew how to do them and they were easy to organize.
Chen Kang looked at Chen Yu with satisfaction; he still had to find things for Chen Yu to do.
Shen Yan wanted to help, but his shop was doing very well lately and he was very busy, having to work overtime every day.
Chen Yu spent two days tidying up, and with Sunday fast approaching, she was visibly getting anxious.
My hand speed also became incredibly fast.
Shen Yan left early on Saturday afternoon and returned home around 5 p.m.
He watched Chen Yu diligently working in the living room, then took off his shoes and went over to help.
"Huh? Why are you back?"
"I got off work early today, let me help you."
With Shen Yan's help, the documents were quickly organized, and Chen Yu breathed a sigh of relief, vowing never to do it for Chen Kang again.
She's cut her hands these past few days.
Shen Yan neatly arranged the thick stack of documents on the table, waiting for Chen Kang to return so he could move them away.
During dinner that evening, Chen Kang assumed that Chen Yu had done it all by herself, so he rewarded her with 1,000 yuan and told her to go out and have some fun these few days.
Chen Yu stuffed the money into his pocket. "You should pay me 2,000. This is not something an ordinary person can do."
“My colleagues need to finish this within two days, but I gave you three days.”
Although Chen Kang said that, he still felt that Chen Yu's speed was already very good.
But that's what I said so as not to make Chen Yu arrogant.
After eating.
Chen Yu returned to her room and lay sprawled out on the bed.
Playing games on my phone.
She couldn't imagine how uncomfortable she would be with that small, hard bed once school started.
You should spend more time with her soft bed as soon as possible.
In the solemn room.
The phone on the table vibrated twice. Shen Yan picked it up and saw that it was a message from Ma Qi, whom he hadn't contacted in a long time.
[Ma Qi: Shen Yan, can I ask you to meet tomorrow to discuss something?]
Holding her phone, Ma Qi was very nervous. She was prepared to force herself on Shen Yan, thinking that since they had graduated, he would definitely consider her.
Shen Yan frowned. He really didn't want to see Ma Qi's message. Last time Ma Qi hugged him, he resisted with all his might. If it weren't for the fact that she was a girl, he would have pushed her away a long way.
He thought for a moment and replied to Ma Qi that he was busy.
