Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 260 The Life-or-Death Duo Heading Towards Extreme Terror

After giving Curry Sauce a few more brief instructions, Mika hurriedly returned to her apartment.

"Guan Gu, let's go." The energetic Youyou couldn't wait any longer.

Guan Gu nodded with a hint of smugness: "Okay."

So the two of them walked side by side into the escape room shop.

"Hello, both of you."

The waitress in charge of greeting the guests smiled at Guan Gu and Youyou and said, "To celebrate the grand opening of our store, all purchases this month will be 30% off."

"Couples get a 50% discount, and there's also an extra small gift for couples after clearing the checkpoint!"

The waitress looked at the two seemingly well-matched people in front of her and asked, "May I ask what your relationship is...?"

Youyou blinked: "Can I see the couple's gift after completing the game before deciding on our relationship?"

As a supporting actress who is often "dead" in the film, Youyou is not rich, but she doesn't need to be greedy for a 20% discount.

However, if she is very satisfied with the small gift she receives upon completing the game with her partner, then that's a different story.

Upon hearing Youyou's words, the waitress's enthusiastic smile vanished as if someone had pressed the pause button.

Miss, if you say that... should I pretend to be confused?

Or should we pretend to be confused?

With a customer-first attitude, the waitress explained with a smile, "Miss, the small gifts for couples who complete the game are related to the difficulty of the game. Different difficulty levels will result in different gifts."

"However, these gifts and rewards for completing the mission are all on our list. You two can sit down and take your time to look at them."

The waitress handed Youyou a thick list as she spoke.

Youyou excitedly took the list and sat down at the booth next to her. Guangu stood to the side, thought for a moment, and asked, "Youyou, what kind of milk tea would you like to drink?"

"No need, I'm busy."

Excited, Youyou was engrossed in flipping through the thick list in her hands and had no time to pay attention to Guan Gu.

Guan Gu: ...

Only after speaking did Youyou realize that her task for today was to make Guan Gu happy and relieve his stress, not to seek thrills for herself.

She looked up awkwardly at Guan Gu and smiled, "Sorry, I was just too engrossed."

"fine."

Guan Gu clearly didn't care about such a small matter; on the contrary, he was quite pleased: "It seems you really enjoy playing escape rooms."

"Yeah," Youyou said with a forced smile.

Actually, she just likes being in a lively atmosphere.

Would you like something else to drink?

Guan Gu added, "The escape room will probably take quite a while, and we probably can't bring any drinks inside."

They had just finished lunch and were now just having a drink.

Youyou thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll have a caramel milk tea."

"it is good."

When Guan Gu returned with the caramel milk tea, Youyou quickly handed him the list.

"Guan Gu, what do you think we should choose?"

Guan Gu just casually flipped through it, and he felt like his heart was about to stop beating.

Aside from the first few pages of the table of contents, the rest of the list is filled with real-life photos of various escape room scenes.

A dark, enclosed space, terrifying scenes, chilling props, and bizarre and absurd NPCs.

The photographer responsible for taking pictures of the escape room was definitely a professional; through his lens, the sense of suspense and horror almost overflowed from the photos.

Of course, this could also be due to Guan Gu's overly rich imagination; at least, no one else would likely feel the same way about Guan Gu.

He now feels countless thin, black lines, like the hair of a female ghost, growing and spreading out from the photo.

These thin threads climb slowly but actually quickly, starting from one's fingertips and winding upwards.

Finally, the black threads covered his entire body, making Guan Gu feel as if he were trapped in a large black cocoon.

Next, these fine threads will pierce every pore of your skin like silver needles, and then...

"Guan Gu, Guan Gu..."

Youyou stretched out her hand and waved it in front of Guan Gu, who was in a daze.

Seeing that Guan Gu was still in a daze, she simply shook Guan Gu's shoulder.

Guan Gu then came to his senses and began to breathe heavily.

He felt his heartbeat, which had stopped abruptly just moments before, begin to surge violently again.

"Sorry, Youyou, I was daydreaming."

Guan Gu clutched his chest, still shaken, and said.

He was just looking at a picture of a scene; even if it was terrifying, it shouldn't have scared him like this.

But when Guan Gu thought about the possibility of being in these terrifying scenes, his wild imagination could no longer be contained.

"fine."

Youyou thought that Guan Gu was still lost in thought from time to time because of Xiao Wan's matter.

She sipped her caramel milk tea, blinked, and said, "So, have you decided which scene we want to go to?"

"I haven't decided yet."

Looking at the list of all sorts of strange and terrifying things, Guan Gu was thinking of choosing a less scary scene to get through.

But he remembered that Youyou had been flipping through the pages with great interest just now, and now she must have her own scene in mind.

Just as Youyou knew she was accompanying Guangu today, Guangu also felt that he was accompanying Youyou today.

So Guan Gu pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I'm fine with anything, Youyou, we'll go wherever you like."

Guan Gu was relatively relieved at this point. After all, considering that Youyou had been wanting to play escape room games but needed someone to help her, she probably wouldn't choose a scary one... right?

Upon hearing Guan Gu's words, Youyou's eyes suddenly lit up: "Really?"

"real!"

Guan Gu nodded emphatically.

"If it were me, I'd like this, this, and this..."

She slowly flipped to the second half of the list, her fingertips tapping lightly across it.

Guan Gu didn't even have time to look closely at what Youyou had ordered; he only saw the fiery skulls under Youyou's fingertips.

If we categorize them by horror level, the scenes and stories Yoyo just chose are all the most terrifying.

"What?!?!"

Guan Gu's eyes widened, and he screamed, "Weren't you scared? Why did you choose all the most terrifying books?"

Is this what Nanfeng meant by "the worse you are at the game, the more you enjoy playing"?

Youyou was stunned for a moment before she realized that she was no longer Tang Youyou, but a timid Tang Youyou.

Then she smiled sweetly and said, "Actually, I'm very scared, but now you're here to protect me, aren't you?"

[In her inner world, Youyou pointed to the rewards on the list and said...]

Actually, I'm not that brave, but one of the rewards for clearing the Extreme Horror dungeon is an Oscar statuette model!

[Youyou put her hands on her hips and said confidently.]

[I may not be able to win an Oscar in real life yet, but surely I can win one in a game?]

[It's just a really scary story, right? Guan Gu shouldn't have any problems...?]

Guan Gu was taken aback by Youyou's words: "You're doing this because of me..."

He nervously touched his trouser leg and forced himself to look at the photos on the list a few more times, suppressing his fear.

"Guan Gu, if you don't like it..."

Before Youyou could finish speaking, Guangu immediately slapped his thigh and declared, "No, I like it very much. Youyou, you and I are on the same page."

"We'll choose one of those you picked to play with. Don't worry, I'll definitely protect you!"

This samurai from Japan may not have the courage to forge ahead or the composure to remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses before him, but he still has the resolve to protect the girl he loves.

"Guan Gu, you're so nice!" Youyou gave a bright smile.

Guan Gu stared at that smile, which seemed to be something you could only see in a comic book, for a long time in a daze. Suddenly, he felt all the fear and unease in his heart vanish.

He confidently straightened his chest, feeling that no matter how terrifying or frightening the scene ahead might be, he would no longer be afraid!

However, Guan Gu was about to be proven wrong.

I'm coming

The word count has been a bit lower these past two days.

It's the end of the month, time to take a little break.

Watch me return in April, full of energy.

Thank you all for your support. I will try to update more chapters next month.

Thank you so much.
