CH 111

Today’s exhibition was related to cultural relics.

When Xu Yao and Su Rao rushed over, their targets just came out.

They had no choice but to keep up.

Chen Nianqing glanced at his watch and said, “It’s eleven o’clock. Are you hungry?”

Lu Wan: “No.”

Knowing that she was out to play today, Lu Wan ate a little more in the morning.

Lu Buyu also laughed at her because of this, saying that this kind of behavior was really like that of a middle-aged veteran cadre from 40 years ago where there was nowhere to buy food outside.

Lu Wan immediately snapped back, “That’s because you’re afraid of getting fat. If you get fat, you’ll become old news, so you dare not eat.”

That one sentence hit the nail on the head. Lu Buyu, who was eating salad, lost his mind on the spot and left his seat with the dog in his arms.

Chen Nianqing: “There seems to be a ‘ghost school’ nearby. It’s an adventure-themed park. We can go and have a look.”

“Hey, how did you know?”

“I checked online. It’s 2 kilometers straight from here, three stops on the subway. We can eat while strolling around.”

Lu Wan was really interested. The two immediately clicked and decided to have a look.

Seeing that two people bought tickets to enter the ‘ghost school’, Xu Yao hesitated and said, “……How about we just wait here?”

Su Rao: “Wait here? If Lu Wan is afraid and lean on my brother, then what will we do?”

“That’s impossible. Lu Wan’s not afraid of these things.”

Su Rao sneered, “How do you know she’s not afraid? What if?”

“……”

Seeing that the other person didn’t speak, Su Rao thought of something and asked with some surprise, “You don’t mean you’re afraid, do you? It’s fine if you can’t.”

Such a large person was unexpectedly afraid of ghosts.

Xu Yao looked flustered and forced himself to calm down. “Of course I’m not! I’m not afraid.”

He didn’t want to be looked down upon by this person.

He started to hypnotize himself. What was there to be afraid of? It’s all the staff pretending! It’s fake!

“If you’re not afraid, then don’t dawdle.” Su Rao said teasingly and walked over to buy two tickets, completely cutting off the other party’s retreat.

Xu Yao hesitated for a few seconds, then followed with a stiff face.

Su Rao: “When we go in, shall I walk in front? Or you want to walk in front?”

“You do it…… I’ll be on the back.” Xu Yao’s voice was already trembling unconsciously.

“Then let’s hurry up. This is not the museum, if we meet Lu Wan, let’s pretend it’s a coincidence.” Su Rao had an idea in mind.

“Oh.” Xu Yao timidly looked around and entered a state of alert.

———

Lu Wan squatted down and looked at the hanged ghost hugging her leg.

She stretched out her hand and poked the other party’s long tongue. “So cool. It’s made of plastic and quite soft to the touch. Your props are made with great care.”

The hanged ghost: “……”

Elder sister is just making a living and there’s a lot of competition now.

But your focus is wrong. Girl, you should scream loudly and turn pale with fright.

Can’t you have the basic qualities of a guest?

Lu Wan: “Okay, stop holding my leg anymore. You’re quite dedicated. How much is your salary?”

“Four thousand plus food allowance……” The hanged ghost stood up while talking, fiddled with her tongue, and left silently.

“Get off, get off, get off, don’t touch me! Ahhhh! Mom, help me! I’m gonna die, I’m gonna die!”

Xu Yao’s emotions completely collapsed.

Su Rao chased after him. “Don’t be crazy, stop running.”

Lu Wan pushed open the door and the front suddenly opened up.

After adapting to the dark environment, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable with the bright sunshine outside and squinted slightly.

Chen Nianqing: “Slowly open your eyes for two minutes.”

Lu Wan took off his hand covering her eyes. “I’m fine now.”

“Then let’s go eat. Is there something you want?” Chen Nianqing asked with a smile.

Lu Wan: “How about we go eat hot pot?”

It’s perfect to eat hot pot on winter!

“Okay, let’s have hot pot then.”

Lu Wan picked a nearby hot pot chain restaurant and ordered two-flavor hot pot.

Xu Yao and Su Rao also followed. They sat in a corner far away.

The waiter came over with the menu and Su Rao ordered casually.

The efficiency of this store was very high, the pot and the dishes were served soon. Xu Yao started to cook the beef rolls.

Su Rao frowned. “You still have an appetite? Did you forget what you’re here for today?”

Chen Nianqing: “We have acquaintances in the restaurant.”

“What?”

“Don’t look back, they’ll notice you. I also just found out. Didn’t you say that you seemed to have heard Xu Yao’s voice earlier? It was really him with Su Rao.” Chen Nianqing said in a faint voice.

Lu Wan was very surprised. “Are they following us? Why?”

Chen Nianqing: “I guess they want to see if we’re a real couple.”

Lu Wan: “……”

But she didn’t think she had shown any flaws.

Was Xu Yao crazy? He actually wanted to tear down her act.

Chen Nianqing: “At present, they’re just suspicious, probably because we are not acting close enough.”

“Not close enough? How can we act closer?”

The hot pot restaurant sent a plate of fruit in case they’ll need it.

Chen Nianqing obviously had already thought about how to express the ‘close’ relationship between the two of them. He delivered the peeled grapefruit to Lu Wan’s mouth.

Lu Wan: “……”

This was too strange. She’s not a little baby. Why would she need someone to feed her?

Chen Nianqing: “Open your mouth, they’re watching.”

“Oh.”

Lu Wan used her peripheral vision to see where those two were. Splitting her attention between two tasks, in addition to the grapefruit, she’d also bitten Chen Nianqing’s finger.

Lu Wan comprehended what she was doing and quickly loosened her teeth.

“Why, you still want to eat me?”

Chen Nianqing received a shock. The bite actually didn’t hurt, but it was tingling.

Lu Wan: “……No.”

“Is the grapefruit sweet?” Chen Nianqing asked again.

“Sweet.”

“What about me?”

Lu Wan said without thinking, “Sweet.”
