Chapter 76 - 76: A Pretty Decent Love Guru
The air in the empty room was filled with a faint wooden fragrance that made them unconsciously feel at ease. Xu Jiaojiao suddenly felt that Su Luo was actually a pretty decent love guru.
Qi Shenbai bent down and grabbed her wrist, pulling her up from the ground. “Are you scared?”
“I’m fine. I just got a shock when 1 jumped out.” Before Xu Jiaojiao could finish her sentence, Qi Shenbai crouched down and very naturally brushed the dust off her pants.
This escape room usually had good business and received many guests every day. They could not clean up every time, so there was inevitably a lot of dust on the floor. Xu Jiaojiao’s pants were stained with dust.
Xu Jiaojiao did not see it herself, but he did…
His clean and slender fingers landed on the bottom of her pants and brushed past them, but it felt as though he was running them across her heartstrings. The more he played, the more chaotic her heart became. The more chaotic her heart became, the more she indulged in it.
“Sorry to disturb you.” The staff member’s voice suddenly came from the walkie-talkie in Xu Jiaojiao’s hand.
Xu Jiaojiao suddenly remembered that there was an infrared camera here. Even if the lights were not on, the staff could see everything that they had just done. She could not help but blush. She watched as Qi Shenbai stood up and pretended to be calm as he pressed the call button. He asked gently, “Is something the matter?”
The staff on the other end of the walkie-talkie sounded helpless. “Could you… come to Room One?”
“What happened? Could it be my brother…?” Xu Jiaojiao sounded worried.
“There’s no big problem at the moment. We just need you to come over and deal with it. It’s best to be quick,” the staff explained over the walkie-talkie.
The door to the escape room was already open. Although there was a light, it could not do much in the dim environment. It was impossible to see what was inside.
Once Xu Jiao jiao came in, the staff member heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, “Perhaps he’s too afraid because of psychological reasons and can’t hear us. Either way, he’s still holding onto our NPC tightly.”
Xu Jiaojiao was puzzled when she heard the staff member’s explanation. Then, she saw Xu Zhengyang.
At this moment, Xu Zhengyang seemed to be clutching at an NPC’s thigh tightly, as though it was his only lifebuoy in the ocean. He simply refused to let go, mumbling, “I’m not afraid… I’m not afraid at all! Let me tell you, your little tricks won’t scare me at all…”
Although he said that he was not afraid, his body was very honest. He did not even dare to open his eyes.
It was hard on the young NPC. His face was filled with helplessness, and he seemed to be on the verge of collapse. Moreover…
Xu Zhengyang was pulling his pants down, and he was about to tug them right off!
Even though the young NPC was pulling up his pants with both hands, he could not stop them from falling. The NPC looked at Xu Jiaojiao and Qi Shenbai with tears in his eyes.
Xu Jiaojiao turned her head away from him. At this moment, she really wanted to say, “I’m sorry, I don’t know him.”
“This player has only been here for a short time. The NPC had just came out, but he was already so frightened…” The staff covered his face and held back his laughter. “We really can’t move him. I had no choice but to call you here.”
Xu Jiaojiao stood rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do when she saw Xu Zhengyang hugging the NPC’s thigh and wailing loudly. She felt… too embarrassed.
Xu Jiaojiao looked at Qi Shenbai, who was beside her. “Um… why don’t you go and persuade him?”
In other words… ‘I’m too ashamed to go.’
“Cough, cough.” Qi Shenbai coughed twice and said, “You’re his sister, after all. 1’11 leave this to you.”
Xu Jiaojiao was speechless.
The staff, the NPC, and the others were all looking at her for help, especially the NPC. He was about to cry.
It seemed that she really had no choice.
“Sigh, if I don’t enter hell, who will? Here goes nothing.”
Xu Jiaojiao convinced herself. She walked over to Xu Zhengyang’s side and squatted down. Just as her palm touched his shoulder…
“All!!!”
Xu Zhengyang’s pig-like scream resounded through the sky and reverberated in the escape room for a long time.
Xu Jiaojiao was caught off guard and jumped in fright. Before she could say anything, she heard Xu Zhengyang chanting to himself.
Xu Zhengyang’s body was shaking like a sieve as he muttered under his breath, “Begone, ghosts! Begone, demons!”
“Brother? Are you alright? I’m Jiaojiao, I’m here to save you.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Zhengyang’s body stopped trembling. He slowly turned his head, and when he saw that it was Xu Jiaojiao, his empty eyes lit up as he hugged her.
“It’s so scary… Jiaojiao, do you have any idea how long the last few minutes have felt for me? You almost lost the brother who loves you the most in the world!”
