Bai Luochuan: !!!
Why had his Fox suddenly reacted like this?
Being a yandere was a bad idea!
He couldn't get mixed up in that!
Bai Luochuan looked at Qi Yu nervously.
Qi Yu, meanwhile, acted as though he hadn't said any of that.
He simply smiled and held Bai Luochuan in his arms.
He said nothing.
He just quietly felt the wind rushing past them.
[What's with Bai Luochuan's expression? Is he so scared he's forgotten how to scream?]
[Isn't Bai Luochuan supposed to be really brave? Was he faking it before?]
[Did something go wrong? Qi Yu seems to be holding him really tightly, too!]
[The production team had better not pull anything again! I want to see my little couple being sweet!]
Bai Luochuan's bewildered, shocked reaction sent the live comments in completely the wrong direction.
Fortunately, the bungee jump didn't last that long.
Only when the rope had more or less stopped bouncing and the two of them were suspended in midair did Bai Luochuan finally collect his thoughts. He said to Qi Yu, "You..."
"I know what you're going to say. Don't worry. I was just joking with you."
Qi Yu smiled and answered before he could finish.
His foxlike eyes narrowed once again.
He cunningly kept the rabbit enclosed in his arms.
Glancing at the rescue boat, which was still some distance away, Qi Yu kept holding him and continued explaining, "Even if things really reached that point, I couldn't possibly let anything happen to you. You know how much I love you, how much I cherish you. How could I bear to let anything happen to you?"
That wasn't a lie.
Bai Luochuan thought back to their conversation when he had logged into the game last night.
If he hadn't misunderstood.
When he had explained his transmigration yesterday, Qi Yu should already have understood everything.
His death had allowed them to meet.
But upon learning that, Qi Yu's first reaction hadn't been happiness, but heartache and anger.
Even though he wanted to meet him so badly, he would still instinctively put Bai Luochuan's safety first.
He didn't want Bai Luochuan to suffer any harm.
So that fleeting, desperate thought probably really was nothing more than a thought.
He reached that conclusion.
His anxiety eased considerably, too.
As they descended along the rescue boat's pole, Bai Luochuan added something else to Qi Yu.
He said, "It's not just me who has to stay safe. You do, too. Stay out of trouble, and stop thinking about strange, scary things."
Qi Yu smiled happily. "Whatever you say."
Bai Luochuan blinked.
He slowly nodded.
Their conversation was perfectly normal and smooth.
It was as though they hadn't just gone bungee jumping off a cliff.
They had simply taken an elevator down.
[We spoke too soon. I knew Bai wouldn't be scared! That word isn't even in his dictionary!]
[So what exactly were they talking about?! Qi Yu, what did you say?! Can't you share it with your family here? What strange, scary things?! I want to hear, too!]
[I see it now. Qi Yu is exploiting a loophole here. Whenever we can't hear him, he says all sorts of crucial things. He's so bad! I love him even more!]
[I want to hear the story about Yan Cheng and Bai Luochuan! Bai Luochuan, don't be stingy! Tell us everything!]
The live comments were still a chaotic clamor.
Meanwhile, the host and the other guests had watched Bai Luochuan and Qi Yu's entire bungee jump together.
Then he turned to the other guests.
Beaming, the host said, "See? This activity really isn't as scary as you imagined. Wasn't I right?"
People instinctively trusted what they saw and heard.
Bai Luochuan and Qi Yu really had seemed far too calm.
So much so that, for a moment, the other guests actually found themselves thinking that perhaps this bungee jump was "no big deal."
They had to do it anyway.
Chu Zhu steeled himself.
He decisively stepped forward.
He glanced at He Gui, who had been paired with him for two days.
After a moment's thought, he said, "He Gui, do you want to do this activity with me?"
It sounded like a question.
But as he spoke, a slight tremor had already crept into Chu Zhu's voice without him realizing it.
He tried hard to stand up straight.
But fear still made his arms tremble slightly.
Seeing how frightened he was, yet how hard he tried to remain stubborn.
He Gui seemed to understand why so many people said Omegas were natural-born seducers.
Without any further hesitation.
He nodded directly.
The production crew, of course, immediately came over to strap the two of them together and have them stand beside the cliff.
Two pairs had now been settled.
Only Lan Muxing and Yan Cheng remained.
Lan Muxing certainly didn't dare do the activity alone.
He edged closer to Yan Cheng.
He said quietly, "Yan Cheng, let's..."
"Sorry, Mu Xing. Before the show started, we did discuss doing the activities together and pairing up to promote ourselves as a couple on the show. But now I feel that deceiving our fans and feeding them fake romantic moments like this isn't really right."
Yan Cheng took a step back.
As he put distance between them, he also voiced his refusal to let Lan Muxing come closer.
Lan Muxing: ?????
Dude, this is honestly kind of hilarious.
Weren't you the one who first suggested coming here together to sell this ship?
Lan Muxing looked at Yan Cheng in utter bewilderment.
The latter, however, blandly averted his gaze.
Throughout the hike up the mountain, Yan Cheng had been thinking.
Why had Bai Luochuan, who used to chase after him like an idiot, suddenly been able to give up so decisively?
First of all, he himself hadn't changed much.
No matter how he looked at it, Bai Luochuan shouldn't have changed, either.
So the most important problem standing between them.
Must have been Bai Luochuan's misunderstanding.
He thought there really was something going on between Yan Cheng and Lan Muxing.
In fact, Yan Cheng had done things like promoting a ship more than once before.
But back then, Bai Luochuan had always obediently watched.
He had never dared show any dissatisfaction.
This time was different.
But that didn't matter.
For once, he was willing to indulge Bai Luochuan, so he would dissolve this inexplicable pairing first. Once Bai Luochuan understood, he would naturally return to his side.
Yan Cheng thought he had considered everything quite thoroughly.
Without so much as another glance at Lan Muxing.
He walked straight over to the production crew and announced his decision. "I'll do the activity alone. Once Chu Zhu and He Gui are finished, let me go next?"
