"Are you ready?!"
At the bungee instructor's command, Xie Mi and Shen Yeqing jumped off the platform dozens of meters in the air with their arms slung around each other's shoulders.
There wasn't a single scream the entire way. The screen was filled with Xie Mi's excited cries of "oi, oi."
"Oi! Oi! Oi!"
"What are you even oi-ing about?!" Director Niu, waiting below, clutched his head in frustration.
Weren't couples supposed to hold each other tight and offer encouragement when bungee jumping, then feel each other's warmth during the rapid descent, making it an activity that quickly brought them closer?
Why did these two make it look like the Monkey King bursting into the world?
Fine, no screaming-he could understand that both of them had nerves of steel. But what was with jumping with their arms around each other's shoulders instead of even hugging?!
"That one's done! A thousand points in the bag!"
Once they were down, Xie Mi and Shen Yeqing looked perfectly relaxed, except for their exposed arms and legs trembling in the cold in their short sleeves and shorts.
But they still refused to admit it.
"N... n-n-n-n-n-n... not cold!" Xie Mi's ears were bright red from the wind, but her gaze remained unwavering. Even her chattering lips couldn't stop her.
The man's warm hands suddenly settled gently over her ears. Warmth flowed from his palms, chasing the chill from her ears, which had begun to ache from the cold.
Shen Yeqing stood before her, offering an excuse every bit as high-sounding as hers.
"I'm hot. Help me balance it out."
Director Niu, who had still been full of resentment just moments ago, immediately lit up and let out an excited shriek.
[Aaaaaaaaaah!!]
[Director Niu is me!!]
[You lucky guy, getting to ship them in person!!]
