Yan Ruo frowned and pulled Zheng You’s hand away from his without changing his expression, saying sternly, “Miss Zheng, I think I made myself clear just now?
Zheng You blinked her big eyes and pretended to be ignorant. “It’s okay,
Yan-ge. It’s fine if we don’t get engaged this year. We can wait…”
Bai Lin looked at Yan Ruo coldly and interrupted Zheng You, “It seems that the two of you are still chatting. We’ll take our leave first.”
“Xiao Lin…”
Yan Ruo wanted to chase after her, but his parents and Zheng You’s parents held him back, so he could not catch up.
Zheng You sneered disdainfully behind Yan Ruo.
Bai Lin only knew how to seduce her Yan-gege, but she had no family background at all. How could she win over her?
Zheng You had been pampered by her family since she was young, and there were very few things that she could not get. Although Yan Ruo had always clearly expressed his rejection, she still regarded him as something within her grasp.
She leaned over and asked in a cutesy voice, “Yan-ge, is Bai Lin angry? I’m so stupid, I often say the wrong things unconsciously. Should I go and apologize?
“What’s there to apologize for?” Zheng An said disdainfully, “Bai Lin and Yan
Ruo aren’t even a couple.”
Yan Ruo’s eyes darkened. He looked at Zheng An and smiled, his smile made the latter’s scalp tingle. “What’s wrong?
Yan Ruo replied, “I’ll remember this apology first. Maybe it’ll be returned in the future.”
[Yay! Has the livestream started?]
[It’s the third season of the Abyss! The official announcement previously said
that Yan Ruo and Bai Lin will be joining? That’s great! I get to ship the imaginary couple again!]
[Come on, can’t you guys be more well-informed? Zheng You is Yan Ruo’s official partner. Bai Lin’s just a temporary partner pushed out by Traveler’s production team. They’re done after the show’s over.]
[Huh? It can’t be, right? I’m going to cry.]
[Then it seems that the people who’re on this episode are all couples, right? Li Xuan brought his girlfriend, Zheng You and Yan Ruo, and there’s the host couple. Bai Lin seems to be a little miserable.]
[My Lin-jie shines alone!]
The popularity brought by Bai Lin and Yan Ruo took up more than half of the livestream channel. The rest were old fans of the Abyss.
Don’t Fall Into the Abyss was the first reality escape show in the country. Dangerous, puzzle-solving, and mind-boggling had always been its selling points. There were many big-name guests who had participated in the show before, but none of them was as popular as this episode.
Zhou Guang did not come with Bai Lin. He was busy with his new song, so he could only take out his phone and watch Bai Lin when he was free.
Before the official start, there was still a segment where the guests got to know each other. The director had ingeniously set the location in the wilderness.
It was already 8:30p.m., and the sky was completely dark. There was no one else here except for the production team.
“Hello, everyone. Welcome to Don’t Fall Into the Abyss,” the host said.
The guests responded by applauding. Li Xuan stood beside Bai Lin, and his girlfriend, Ye Xing, was holding his hand intimately.
“As everyone can see, this is an excellent location in fengshui that our production team found after much difficulty.” The host raised his hand, and the camera turned.
It was dark all around with surrounding dilapidated courtyard walls. Not far away, there were small houses of varying height. There were no lights, and the windows were very dark. It looked eerie.
“This is also the first stop of our show,” the host continued to say.
[This setting… I’m shivering in bed.]
[The previous episode focused on ancient castles, and this episode is exploring abandoned houses? I feel that this episode is even scarier.]
[My hometown is a farming village In my memory, abandoned villages like this usually have some scary ghost stories. Some of the souls of the old people who had passed away were unwilling to leave, so they could only wander around here. If there’s a child’s cry from behind, one mustn’t turn around, because it’s a resentful fetus that died of dystocia.]
[Gosh, you up there! My hair’s standing on end!]
“This is an abandoned village from 30 years ago. According to the memories of the old people who lived here, they often heard the harsh meowing of a cat at midnight. Every time they heard the meowing, a person died.
“Therefore, as more and more people left, fewer people remained. When the last person died, this place became a deserted village that no one set foot in. You’ll enter the village to explore in an hours time. At that time, the staff will seal all the exits. You can only leave after you find that black cat.”
Everyone listened attentively to the host’s introduction. As soon as he finished speaking, a harrowing cat’s meow cut through the sky.
Ye Xing and Zheng You cried out and threw themselves into the arms of the man next to them.
Bai Lin placed her hands in her pockets and looked at Yan Ruo..
