I stood in front of the Haunted House, my legs trembling.
Gaoyuan: "Are you scared?"
Me: "Who, who said I'm scared?"
Gaoyuan: "Then why are you shaking?"
Me: "I'm cold."
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan took off his jacket and draped it over me.
Gaoyuan: "Are you still cold?"
Me: "Not anymore."
Gaoyuan: "Then let's go."
Me: "..."
I took a deep breath, gathered my courage, and stepped into the Haunted House.
It was very dark inside, with only faint light.
I held my breath and nervously looked around.
Suddenly, a shadow darted out from the corner, lunging at me with claws bared.
Me: "Ah—"
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan pulled me into his arms and patted my back.
Gaoyuan: "It's okay, it's just an NPC."
Me: "..."
I slowly calmed down and continued walking forward.
Suddenly, a pale face appeared right in front of me.
Me: "Ah—"
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan pulled me behind him, watching the front warily.
Gaoyuan: "It's just an NPC."
Me: "..."
I peeked out from behind Gaoyuan to sneak a look at the face.
The NPC suddenly grinned widely.
Me: "Ah—"
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan held me tightly in his arms.
Gaoyuan: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Me: "..."
I gradually calmed down but still clung tightly to Gaoyuan's sleeve.
Gaoyuan: "Let's go outside."
Me: "Okay."
We walked out of the Haunted House, the sunlight blinding.
I squinted and raised my hand to shield my eyes.
Gaoyuan: "Are you okay?"
Me: "Yeah."
Gaoyuan: "You look pale."
Me: "..."
I touched my face; it was indeed cold.
Gaoyuan: "Wait here for me; I'll go buy a bottle of water."
Me: "Okay."
...
I squatted down, hugging my knees.
Suddenly, someone tapped my shoulder.
I looked up and saw a person wearing a ghost mask.
Me: "..."
I froze in place.
Masked Person: "Hehehe."
Me: "..."
I turned and ran.
Masked Person: "..."
I ran to Gaoyuan's side and grabbed his arm tightly.
Gaoyuan: "What’s wrong?"
Me: "Ghost... ghost..."
Gaoyuan: "Ghost?"
Gaoyuan looked up.
Masked Person: "Hehehe."
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan positioned himself protectively behind me, frowning at the masked person.
Masked Person: "Only one of you can live; who will you choose to survive?"
Gaoyuan: "We both want to live."
Masked Person: "That's not possible."
Gaoyuan: "..."
Gaoyuan: "Then go ahead and kill me."
Masked Person: "..."
Gaoyuan: "You can kill me, but I will never let you hurt her."
Masked Person: "..."
The masked person sighed, "Ah, I really envy you young people."
After saying that, the masked person turned and left.
Gaoyuan: "..."
I: "......"
Gaoyuan: "It's okay now."
I: "Mm."
Gaoyuan: "Drink some water."
I: "Alright."
...
I took a sip of water, and my emotions gradually calmed down.
Gaoyuan: "Do you want to play anything else?"
I: "I want to go home."
Gaoyuan: "Okay, I'll take you back."
...
Gaoyuan took me home.
On the way, we talked about the Haunted House.
Gaoyuan: "Actually, there are a lot of traps in the Haunted House."
I: "I know."
Gaoyuan: "You know?"
I: "Yeah."
Gaoyuan: "Then why were you screaming so loudly?"
I: "......"
I: "I got scared."
Gaoyuan: "......"
Gaoyuan: "You can't leave me in the future."
I: "Why?"
Gaoyuan: "Because you're too foolish."
I: "......"
