Chapter 166 - 166: Find Me Anytime
“I heard it with both ears.” Yan Hanxi smiled and said, “However, the lines seem a bit juvenile. I suggest improving them next time.”
He Jing was speechless.
She thought, “Boring!”
He Jing placed the clues in the designated location one by one. Then, she received the escape prompt and left the room.
The two of them went to Secret Room 06 together. They were exceptionally silent. Though it wasn’t suffocating, it wasn’t exactly pleasant either. After a while, He Jing suddenly asked, “Is it really too juvenile?”
Yan Hanxi couldn’t help but laugh. “Just teasing you.”
“Hell.
She thought, “Bastard.”
After a while…
Yan Hanxi suddenly spoke, “Your family relationship seems a bit bad.”
He Jing didn’t deny this. After all, she felt terrible too. Yan Hanxi gradually stopped walking and turned to look at her. His eyes were full of seriousness and bright like fireworks. “If you’re unhappy or want to leave that family, come and find me anytime.”
He Jing’s eyelids twitched, and her heart skipped a beat for no reason. Then, she snorted and walked forward, ignoring him.
Yan Hanxi wanted to pat her head to comfort her, but as soon as he pulled his hand out of his pocket, she was gone. He had no choice but to put his hand back into his pocket awkwardly.
Secret Room 06 was still a two-player escape room with multiple escape routes. He Ning, He Sui, and the others hadn’t come out yet, and it wasn’t known how long it would take for them to successfully escape. In order to complete all the rooms before dark, He Jing decided not to wait for them and explore Secret Room 06 first.
However, four two-player teams were required to activate the game. He Jing could only join the game with three other unfamiliar teams.
The other three temporary teams had yet to clear the other secret rooms because the flow of people was too high. The other secret rooms had to queue up. These three teams were all couples without exception.
One of them was particularly good-looking. They had red hair and tattoos. There was almost no intact skin on their exposed arms. One look and they could tell that they were from society.
He Jing looked at their brooches, numbers 48 and 49.
Number 48 was a man with an afro. His eyes had never left her since she appeared. Strangely, Number 49, a woman with a wavy hairstyle, wasn’t jealous. She stared at Yan Hanxi as if she could make a flower out of Yan Hanxi.
He Jing couldn’t help but frown. She took a step toward Yan Hanxi, blocking her view of him.
This gaze was clearly the gaze of a prey. She was already in her thirties, yet she still wanted to pursue younger individuals?
Yan Hanxi hid He Jing behind his back. His narrow phoenix eyes revealed a cold sharpness as he locked eyes with the afro man.
Finally, the afro man shifted his gaze away from He Jing and sneered disdainfully. It was obvious that he was looking down on her.
The woman with wavy hair looked at Yan Hanxi for a long time, but Yan Hanxi didn’t even look at her. She felt rejected and her heart was sour. She held the hand of the afro and said sweetly, “My dear, you have to work hard when we enter the secret room later. We must get first place. We can’t let others beat us.” As she spoke, she glanced at He Jing, her meaning obvious.
The afro man grinned and revealed his white teeth, “Of course! I’ve never failed an escape room before.”
Then, the two of them entered the secret room.
He Jing was speechless. The male lead’s face really attracted attention everywhere. Even when they played in a secret room together, she would be envied. “Wear a mask next time you go out and cover that face of yours.”
Yan Hanxi followed her closely. He walked into the secret room lazily. He said in a leisurely tone, “I’ll wear it if you wear it. We’ll cover it together..”
