Top-notch Master Masquerading As Cannon Fodder Female Companion Chapter 415 – Are You Afraid

Chapter 415: Are You Afraid

Wei Zhiqian twisted Tan Mo’s hair into a knot with his slender fingers and wrapped a hair tie around it.

He then let the bun and the hair along the hairline hang loose a little to create a fluffy look.

Hence, it would appear to be more natural and not rigid.

“OMG! He knows his stuff!” a girl who came with her friends commented after seeing Wei Zhiqian’s skilled movements.

“If he were my boyfriend, he’d comb and tie my hair for me every day! This is pure bliss!”

“To think that he would treat her this well. A tender-hearted man like him is really attractive.”

The women in the crowd did not say it aloud, fearing that the others would overhear them. So, they texted each other on WeChat.

A girl even snapped a photo in secret while Wei Zhiqian was doing Tan Mo’s hair. She sent it to her other two roommates who hadn’t come.

Her roommates immediately responded with a shower of compliments. “Whoa! He’s so hot! Where’s this? I’m coming!”

“Me too! I’m heading over there too! Hurry up! Send us the location now!”

The woman who sent the photo responded, “What happened to mates before dates? I invited you gals to join me last night, and none of you except Jieyu was willing to come. How come y’all are free all of a sudden?”

“We just can’t help it! Our main priority is to make time to indulge ourselves with the figures of hot guys! He’s still there, right?”

“I’ve got a question! Is the girl who he did the hair for his girlfriend?”

The woman replied, “No. I don’t think so.”

“Great! We’ll be there soon! Please wait for us!”

“I’m on my way there now.”

Following that, Wei Zhiqian was done tying Tan Mo’s hair.

Her fair neck was fully exposed without her long hair covering it.

Tan Mo had a long neck like a swan. With a bun tied on top of her head, it only further highlighted the fairness and gracefulness of her nape.

The sight of it triggered one’s desire to nibble on it.

Wei Zhiqian did not remove his gaze from it until it was their turn to buy the tickets.

“Sir, how many tickets do you want?” the ticket clerk asked.

“For two pax,” Wei Zhiqian answered after regaining his composure.

“Sir, we only have the five-star horror-themed escape room for two pax right now. The Mansion of Night is short of two players currently. You can start playing immediately,” the ticket clerk explained. “The other rooms are full. The games are ongoing with players inside. As for the rest, several groups are waiting in line to get in.

“However, their groups have reached the maximum capacity for the rooms. If you wanna pick the other rooms, then you gotta wait for new players to join in.”

“How long will it take?” Tan Mo asked.

“That is hard to determine. It depends on how fast the players finish the game. But we have a limit of one hour per game. When the time is up, our staff will guide the players out of the room,” the ticket clerk elaborated. “As for how long it will take for your room to reach the minimum number of players, it is beyond our control. We can’t make any promises.

“The minimum requirement for two-star and three-star rooms is less. We can start the game with only four players,” the ticket clerk continued. “Six players are required for a four-star room and eight players for a five-star one.”

Just then, the ticket clerk pointed his finger to the five-star room’s waiting area. “That is the waiting area for the five-star escape room. Four-star is over there.”

After that, he pointed at the two-star and three-star rooms’ waiting areas.

There were only a few waiting to enter the two-star room. It must have been unexciting since the game was too easy for most people.

At least, that was Tan Mo’s first impression after looking in that direction.

If she were in their shoes, she would not pick the two-star escape room either.

Her primary choice was to pick a theme among the four-star escape rooms.

When push came to shove, she would give the three-star room a try.

Nevertheless, the three-star and four-star rooms’ waiting area had the longest line of players waiting to get in.

Most of them were on their cellphones to kill time.

After thinking about it, Tan Mo realized she had to waste at least two hours waiting for those players to complete the games, let alone biding her time for new players to form a group for the next round, which only God knew how long that would take.

Turning his head to Tan Mo, Wei Zhiqian asked, “What do say you? Do you think we should wait or pick the five-star room?”

Noticing Tan Mo’s hesitation, he added, “Don’t worry about me. I’ve made my promise to keep you company today. I’m okay with whatever you want to do. My schedule is empty today, so I don’t mind waiting with you here for another two to three hours.”

Having heard that, Tan Mo felt that it would be a waste of time to twiddle her thumbs for such a long time.

She did not want to waste the rare occasion of him being able to accompany her for the day.

“Well, let’s choose the five-star escape room then,” Tan Mo answered.

“Are you sure?” Wei Zhiqian asked. “The five-star room should be pretty spine-chilling.”

“Why should I be afraid when you’re by my side?” Tan Mo responded calmly.

Upon hearing that, the ticket clerk said to himself, “This girl really knows how to win people’s hearts with her sweet talk.

“No wonder he dotes on her so much.”

From the clerk’s perspective, he hoped that the two would pick the five-star escape room since the players-in-waiting could get in faster.

Otherwise, people might get impatient and ask for a refund.

Nonetheless, due to the finality of the ticket purchasing, they would accept no refund as it was part of their policy.

It would be troublesome for the staff if the customers made a fuss about it.

Wasting no time, the ticket clerk guided Wei Zhiqian to scan the QR code for payment and handed them the tickets swiftly.

To avoid any unforeseen event, the ticketing clerk beckoned at the players who were idling in the five-star room’s waiting area and announced, “There are enough players for the five-star escape room. Please line up here.”

After hearing that, the players-in-waiting jumped to their feet in excitement and dashed toward the entrance.

Those players had been standing by for a long time, so it was good news for them.

The announcement caught the attention of the players from other waiting areas, and their eyes were green with envy.

‘Look! They got in already!’ The crowd had a synchronized thought.

Despite being jealous, they dared not challenge the five-star escape game.

Rumor had it that the actors in the three-star and four-star escape games would scare the players, but they would only do it perfunctorily.

However, the five-star escape game scare actors would go all out to terrify the living daylights out of the players.

Although they knew the actors were flesh and blood like them, the atmosphere greatly intensified the frightfulness all the same.

There were eight players in Tan Mo’s group.

Other than Wei Zhiqian and herself, there were a couple, two guys, and two girls.

The guy and girl duo came in a pair. They did not know one another.

The girl duo was elated after seeing Wei Zhiqian in their group.

These two were the ones who has messaged their roommates on WeChat earlier.

“Hi, I’m Yu Xiaonan.” The woman with two braided pigtails in a Japanese forest-style outfit introduced herself.

It went without saying that her motive was to let Wei Zhiqian remember her name.

Unfortunately, Lady Luck was not on her side. Wei Zhiqian paid her no heed as his attention was on Tan Mo.

Wei Zhiqian whispered, “Are you afraid?”

Wiping the cold sweats off her palms, Tan Mo uttered in anxiety, “A little, actually. My palms are sweating.”

“Okay. Don’t forget to hold my hand and follow me later,” Wei Zhiqian comfortingly said.

The little snow fairy had learned of the existence of the underworld from her master during the previous incarnation.

She had been living on the snow mountain ever since she became sentient.

After being plucked by someone, her master had helped her reincarnate into the current world, bypassing the underworld.

Therefore, she had never seen any horrifying scenes throughout her two lifetimes.
