“Huh? It seems like the puzzle just now hasn’t been solved. Even if Su Luo passes the side quest, she won’t be able to enter the third room,” Xu Jiaojiao said.

“I’ll go,” Qi Shenbai said.

The other two had no objections.

Qi Shenbai went back alone to solve the puzzle. Not long after, he opened the door to the third stage.

As soon as the door opened, a figure slowly walked out with a sigh.

“Oh my god, it’s too scary! Jiaojiao, if you can’t land that old man Qi Shenbai, my sacrifice will be in vain!”

As the figure approached, he finally saw her face clearly under the light. It was Su Luo.

Qi Shenbai and Su Luo looked at each other.

Time seemed to have frozen…

“Cough cough… Ahem, 1 was scared silly just now! I spouted nonsense.” Su Luo laughed awkwardly.

Qi Shenbai was unmoved. He just looked at her quietly.

It was very awkward.

Faced with Qi Shenbai’s sinister gaze, Su Luo began to think that the ghosts just now were not that scary, after all.

Xu Jiaojiao, who had just walked over when she heard the voice, was frozen on the spot when she saw this scene.

After being silent for about half a minute, Xu Zhengyang walked over in a daze. When he saw Su Luo’s dejected expression, he could not help but laugh.

“Hahahaha, Su Luo, what’s wrong with you? Were you scared stiff? Look at you, your face has turned pale from fright! Hahaha…” Xu Zhengyang’s laughter stopped abruptly.

Xu Jiaojiao retracted her hand. She was the one who had poked Xu Zhengyang’s arm at the right time in an attempt to salvage the situation, which was heading in an increasingly troubling direction.

Xu Zhengyang, on the other hand, did not seem to be aware of the conundrum. He continued, “What are you doing, sis? Let me laugh this off for a while… Hahaha, urp~”

For the first time, Su Luo did not find Xu Zhengyang’s laughter as annoying as before.

Qi Shenbai sized up their reactions curiously. Then, his gaze fell on Xu Jiaojiao, and he revealed an inexplicable smile.

Xu Jiaojiao did not notice. She did not have the courage to look at Qi Shenbai at all.

Compared to before, there was a huge change in the last level. There was no light at all in this room. The only light source was the flashlight they carried.

Along the way, Su Luo did not say a word. Xu Zhengyang did not understand why she did not respond, but he did not say anything else. Continuing to chatter when she did not respond would wear down what little remained of her patience and good impression of him.

Xu Zhengyang felt a headache coming on as he thought about the puzzles ahead. He found a seemingly safe place to sit down and waited quietly.

After experiencing the hugely awkward scene from before, Su Luo did not have the courage to face Qi Shenbai. She followed from afar.

As for Xu Jiaojiao and Qi Shenbai, the two of them walked side by side. They mutually decided not to speak as they concentrated on looking for clues.

“Woooo…”

At this moment, an ear-piercing cry sounded, like the cry of a baby.

“What’s going on?” Xu Jiaojiao frowned slightly.

“Something seems to have fallen down ahead. Perhaps it’s a clue,” Qi Shenbai said.

Xu Jiaojiao aimed the flashlight following Qi Shenbai’s line of sight. When she saw what it was, her mind seemed to go blank and she stood rooted to the ground.

Their voices had also attracted Xu Zhengyang’s attention. When he saw what was clearly illuminated by the flashlight, he could not help but say, “Su Luo, are you stupid? Why did you go with such a terrifying theme?”

“What is this? Look at you now. Are you afraid?” Su Luo pretended to be calm.

Although she was afraid of this terrifying thing, how could she admit it in front of Xu Zhengyang?!

Xu Zhengyang did not reply. He just looked at her as if he was looking at a fool.

Qi Shenbai had not moved at all. He just stood where he was, and his tall figure actually looked a little lonely for a moment.

Xu Jiaojiao, who had been standing next to Qi Shenbai all this time, could feel Qi Shenbai stiffen up. His face turned pale, and no one knew what he was thinking, but his expression was a little complicated.

This was the first time Xu Jiaojiao felt Qi Shenbai’s vulnerability.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m here. It’s fake. It’s just a doll,” Xu Jiaojiao held his hand and comforted him softly.

Qi Shenbai did not say anything. It took him a long time to come back to his senses. He turned around and saw Xu Jiaojiao’s face.

Her fair and playful face was filled with worry and heartache. It was like a ray of light in the night, warm and shining. Qi Shenbai felt his heart warm up.

“Okay.” Qi Shenbai’s voice was a little hoarse as he held Xu Jiaojiao’s hand, as if he was holding onto a ray of light in the dark night.

“Hey, what are you doing?!” a voice said, and before either of them could react, another hand pulled their hands apart.

Qi Shenbai looked at the culprit. It was Xu Zhengyang, who had been observing and preparing to attack.

“Focus on the game.. No hanky-panky!”
