Chu Chen: "..."
Felt sorry for him? Like hell I believe you.
The other two pairs of siblings also wore somewhat odd expressions, but whatever they were thinking, when the time came, they followed the production crew's large group to the amusement park.
The blazing summer sun shone overhead, and the incessant, noisy chirping of cicadas filled their ears.
The guests rode a sightseeing cart into the bustling amusement park.
Chu Yu opened her parasol and sat leisurely in the cart, enjoying the charms of nature.
Chu Chen, meanwhile, wore a tense expression the entire time.
Especially when he saw the drop tower in the distance, where the line already stretched like a long dragon, his face abruptly darkened.
"Sis, are we going on that drop tower later?" An Yu's eyes widened in terror as he pointed at the nearby drop tower, where screams rang out nonstop.
Hearing the various screams coming from the drop tower, An Ya looked a little dazed too.
Even she did not dare ride a drop tower this intense, let alone An Yu, who had never been on anything like it.
An Ya immediately turned nervously to a staff member. "Excuse me, my brother is still young. Isn't a ride like this a little dangerous for him?"
The staff member had an answer ready. "Your brother doesn't have to participate. You can experience it in his place."
Still unable to escape her ordeal, An Ya sighed helplessly. "Looks like there's no escaping it for me today."
At the sight before her, Wen Zhixin was also beginning to feel apprehensive.
These amusement park rides sounded frightening enough, let alone having to personally go through them all.
"Everyone, you can get out now. We've arrived," a staff member suddenly announced.
Chu Yu raised her eyes and looked across.
A drop tower stood ahead, soaring into the clouds.
The most terrifying thing about this ride was that it would suddenly plunge without warning, giving riders an intense sense of weightless panic.
Out of fear of the drop tower, all the guests collectively fell silent.
Until Wen Zhixin raised her head and became the first to step forward voluntarily.
She smiled. "I'll go first and lead the charge for everyone."
In truth, she was scared too, but she would have to ride it sooner or later anyway. Stepping forward first would also leave a good impression, so naturally, she did not want to miss this opportunity.
Hearing this, Wen Tianqi stepped forward beside her. "Then I'll go with my sister."
Wen Tianqi was not as frightened as the others. On the contrary, he seemed eager to give it a try.
Once the Wen siblings had stepped forward to set an example, the staff turned to the other two pairs of siblings with beaming smiles.
Under everyone's gaze, An Ya took a deep breath and braced herself as she stepped forward. "I'll go too."
Her thinking was that the sooner she tried it, the sooner it would be over. Dithering and dragging it out would only make her more afraid.
Now, only Chu Yu and her brother had yet to state their position.
[I'm kind of curious how the Chu siblings will react on the drop tower.]
[Do you even need to ask? Those two pampered brats will definitely be scared to death. Bet we're in for a good show.]
[I'm curious, did Chu Yu do something that offended heaven and reason? Why does she have so many haters? Reading this is giving me a heart attack.]
In fact, sometimes even the haters themselves did not know why they were so hostile toward Chu Yu.
Because they often felt as though their emotions were being controlled, and would inexplicably start cursing her.
By the time they came back to their senses, their insulting bullet comments had already been sent.
Over time, they grew used to it and stopped giving it much thought.
Just as the haters waited eagerly to see the Chu siblings scared to death on the drop tower.
Chu Yu slowly turned around with her parasol in hand, a curious look on her face. "I'd like to ask, are the guests required to participate in this ride?"
The staff member paused for a moment. "It's not mandatory, but..."
Before the "but" could be finished, Chu Yu said breezily, "Oh, if it's not mandatory, I won't participate. I've already played these rides to death. They're not challenging at all. Today, we can mainly just let my brother experience them."
The livestream viewers: ?
That's an option?
Chu Chen, the ultimate sucker: ??
Are you really my own sister?
Chapter 18
For a moment, the scene fell silent.
The production crew's staff were also stunned.
Until the haters in the livestream suddenly emerged in excitement. They had finally found a chance to criticize her, and naturally refused to let it slip away. Within mere seconds, bullet comments attacking Chu Yu filled the entire screen.
[Chu Yu is stirring up trouble again! All the other guests can participate, so why should she get an exception?]
[She even said she's bored of them. I bet she's just too scared to ride.]
[I've never seen anyone screw over their brother like Chu Yu does. What's with pushing her brother into it when she's the coward?]
[I just came into this livestream. Why is everyone attacking Chu Yu? Did she do something that offended heaven and reason?]
After a long while, the staff member came back to their senses, looking somewhat troubled.
"Chu Yu, this is all part of our scheduled itinerary. Since you're not afraid, why not give it another go with them?"
Although that was what they said, in truth, none of them believed Chu Yu was really completely unafraid.
After all, that drop tower could scare even grown men half to death.
How could a delicate, wealthy young lady like Chu Yu possibly not be terrified?
Feeling the skeptical looks from all around her, Chu Yu sighed helplessly. "Fine, then I'll give it a go."
Because they were filming a show, the amusement park had opened a special VIP passage for the program's guests, allowing them priority access to every ride in the park.
Just then, the previous group of visitors finished their turn on the drop tower.
The person in charge of the drop tower came over to welcome them with a brilliant smile.
"You're the crew from 'Sisters and Brothers Charge Ahead,' right? Your show has been so popular lately. Quite a few of my friends are following it."
