The weather was beautiful, with the sunlight not too intense and a gentle breeze cooling the air.

Sitting side by side on the bench.

Lin Yan ordered a plain ice cream cone and ate it slowly.

The ice cream from this shop was very milky, and indeed quite delicious.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the person beside him struggling to eat their ice cream, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Lu Jin, even when eating ice cream, had to make a big show of it. He had the shop make a custom flavor for him and named it “Strawberry Chocolate Invincible Mango Coconut Crispy Super Cyclone”.

The ice cream was so heavy that it almost fell to the ground when he picked it up.

The kids opened their mouths wide, looking shocked at the exaggerated ice cream in his hand, and they started clamoring for some too.

The parents who were queuing and secretly taking photos muttered, “…”

Lu Jin saved the ice cream and nudged the person beside him with his elbow. He was still bothered about the incident with the shark rain boots, “I think I need to reiterate. While I do enjoy collecting toys, I’m not a child. I don’t go to children’s amusement parks, nor do I wear shoes like these.”

Lin Yan glanced at his feet and said expressionlessly, “Then take them off.”

Lu Jin said, “I can’t do that.”

Lin Yan was simply speechless about him.

He said he didn’t like them, but he changed into them quickly nonetheless.

Not only did he change into them, but he also didn’t care where he put his valuable shoes. He directly filled a plastic bag with some water and started stomping around in the bag, wearing the shoes, and playing with the water.

In other words, this was respecting the rain boots.

It was fortunate that today was sunny and rainless; otherwise, the water puddles he was stomping in would definitely have his name on them.

Lin Yan thought for a moment and explained, “These shoes come in the largest size.”

Lu Jin: “Really?”

Lin Yan’s eyes revealed a hint of amusement, “It’s true. That store sells children’s shoes.”

Lu Jin: “…?”

Lu Jin couldn’t believe that the store only sold children’s shoes.

Lin Yan didn’t want to hear him complain, so he pulled him along for a stroll, and only then did Lu Jin quiet down.

After this walk, their ice creams were also finished.

Lin Yan asked, “Where should we go next? To the maze…”

Lu Jin interrupted him, “We must go to the High-Speed Sky Road.”

“…”

Not hearing Lin Yan continue, Lu Jin turned to look at him.

Lin Yan seemed to understand something, and a faint smile graced his lips.

Lu Jin: “…Why are you smiling?”

Lin Yan: “Are you afraid of haunted houses?”

Lu Jin raised an eyebrow, “What kind of joke are you making? There’s no way I’d be scared.”

Lin Yan feigned a slightly dejected expression, “But, Mr. Lu, I really want to go to the haunted house.”

“…”

[I saw Lin Yan smirking, he’s so naughty, and I love it.]

[Actually, the haunted house at the Devil’s Castle isn’t that scary. Teacher Lu, go for it!]

[It’s okay, if they get scared, the two of them can hug each other.]

Standing at the entrance of the Maze Ghost Castle, Lu Jin was already considering changing his mind.

He wanted to have a discussion with Lin Yan, but before he could say anything, he saw that the other party had already walked in.

He wanted to negotiate with Lin Yan, but before he could even say a word, he saw that Lin Yan had already walked into the haunted house.

The staff smiled as they received them, “Please, lift the curtain, and that’s the entrance.”

Lin Yan followed the direction she pointed.

He saw a cloth curtain that said “Trespassers will be killed.”

Lin Yan walked over, and lifted the cloth curtain with one hand, revealing a dark corridor inside, illuminated by a pale white light. A gust of cold air rushed out from around the corner.

He turned his head and called Lu Jin who was still standing outside, “Mr Lu, hurry up.”

Lu Jin nodded, “You go in and wait for me. I have something to take care of.”

Lin Yan glanced at him, didn’t ask further, and just walked into the haunted house after lifting the curtain.

After waiting for a couple of seconds, Lu Jin turned to the staff, “Do you sell peach wood swords?”

Staff: “…?”

Lu Jin: “Or black dog blood.”

The staff’s smile wavered, “Sir, our NPCs are all real people.”

[Oh my, Lu Teacher, are you serious? Hahaha, should I send you some garlic?]

[Didn’t you enjoy watching horror movies with Yan Yan last time?]

[Enjoy it? His eyes were almost closed.]

Lu Jin couldn’t buy any props and walked disappointedly toward the corridor.

Suddenly, he thought of something and said solemnly to the camera, “Remember to cut this part.”

[Too late! I’ve already recorded it. It’s going to be promoted all over the internet!]

[At a time like this, you should find a way to get closer to Yan Yan. Do you want a wife or save your face, you have to choose one!]

……

Lin Yan was getting impatient waiting at the corner.

He turned around to find someone, and as he walked around the corner, he almost collided head-on with Lu Jin.

Lin Yan took a step back, “Done with your business?”

Lu Jin nodded casually, “Let’s go.”

There was a small wooden door ahead.

Lin Yan placed his hand on it as if he was about to push it, but then he pulled back.

Lu Jin: “?”

Lin Yan calmly said, “I’m a bit scared, could you push it?”

Lu Jin who wanted to get a little closer to Lin Yan to muddle through, “?”

The barrage: “?”

Lin Yan: “Mr Lu, would you be willing to go first?”

Lu Jin didn’t want to go first.

He suspected that Lin Yan was playing tricks on him.

Lu Jin looked at him quietly for two seconds, “You are scared?”

How can he be scared when he watches horror movies every day?

Lin Yan looked innocent: “Well, I’ve watched too many movies, and it’s easy to overthink things.”

Lu Jin’s expression was suddenly indescribable.

Lin Yan was indeed playing tricks on him.

Seeing him stubbornly pretending not to be afraid, Lin Yan really wanted to scare him.

Because it seemed like a fun idea, but he wasn’t planning to actually let Lu Jin go first.

Seeing Lu Jin’s face turning slightly pale, Lin Yan felt it was about time to stop teasing, “Forget it, I’ll…”

Lu Jin determinedly said: “Follow me closely, don’t get lost.”

Lu Jin pushed the door hard, and Lin Yan followed him in.

It was very dark inside, with faint blue light flickering. Only when the lights turned on could they see coffins filling the room.

A girl’s scream was faintly heard in the distance.

Lu Jin paused, feeling the horror ahead.

Seeing him freeze, Lin Yan couldn’t help but say, “They’re all people, they’re all fake.”

Lu Jin was quite conscious of his image. He casually replied, “I know. Just follow me, and I’ll quickly lead you out. I can do it.”

Lin Yan: “…”

As they walked forward, the coffins suddenly began to shake.

The sound of knocking on the coffin lids and scratching of nails against them filled the air, creating a chilling atmosphere.

A pallid hand emerged from a corner, gently poking Lu Jin’s hand.

The NPC’s grin was about to turn into a laugh when suddenly the hand clamped onto his own and with a swift movement, pulled him away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.

NPC: “???”

The cameraman who was filming Lu Jin was stunned for two seconds before quickly following.

Lin Yan who witnessed everything: “…”

What the hell, wasn’t he supposed to be scared?

Scared, yet he’s running freely with the NPCs?

Lin Yan snapped out of it and started running too.

The priority was to find Lu Jin first. What if he charged out on his own? They’d have to start over again.

An NPC saw him running over and jumped out from a corner to startle him.

Lin Yan pushed him away, “Don’t block the way.”

NPC: “…”

After running for a while, Lin Yan tripped over something.

He stumbled but stopped, looking at the ground and becoming speechless instantly.

He picked up what he had stumbled upon and shouted as he continued running, “Lu Jin, your shoe fell off!!”
