67 Secret Room Theme Event

Chen Che took the money and said forcefully, “In addition to compensation, you have to cooperate with my recording frequency and take a few more photos.”

At that moment, Fang Weixun was on the brink of tears. He had no choice but to follow Chen Che’s instructions and record and take photos.

Chen Che only let Fang Weixun leave when it was almost dawn.

The homeless uncle looked at the wound on Chen Che’s arm. Although the wound was not big, it was very deep.

In this weather, wounds were easily inflamed, so the homeless uncle insisted on accompanying Chen Che to the hospital to treat his wounds.

Chen Che could not bear to spend money, so the two of them came out of the small alley and walked towards the hospital.

“Uncle, thank you for today. If not for you, I’m afraid I would have died at their hands.”

Chen Che looked at the homeless uncle gratefully and smiled.

Although the uncle was a vagrant, his words and actions did not look like someone ordinary. It was obvious that he had a story.

“What are you thanking me for? Speaking of which, I should be the one thanking you. I’m very happy to have you accompany me during this period of time.”

At this point, the homeless uncle’s eyes turned slightly red.

Ever since he lived on the streets, he had suffered too much disdain and ridicule. Only Chen Che had never despised him and was willing to live in a self-service withdrawal hall with him. Occasionally, he would bring back some food for him.

Without Chen Che, he would only be a walking corpse with no hope for life.

“Chen Che, I’m leaving here soon. I’ll save you this time to repay you for taking care of me previously!”

The homeless uncle looked at Chen Che sincerely, tears flickering in his eyes.

After spending a long time together, his relationship with Chen Che gradually deepened and they had already become old friends.

Now that he had decided to leave this place, he could not help but feel a little reluctant.

“Where are you going?”

Chen Che also looked at him reluctantly.

The homeless uncle said indifferently, “Actually, I haven’t thought of where to go either. I want to leave this place first and find a suitable opportunity.”

Seeing that the homeless uncle had made up his mind, Chen Che did not stop him.

Originally, he wanted to help the uncle arrange a place for him to live in peace in his old age when the money returned. However, since the uncle was leaving, he would respect his choice.

The two of them chatted along the way and soon arrived at the hospital. When they came out after bandaging their wounds, the sun had already risen.

When Chen Che returned to the self-service withdrawal hall, the VJ was already waiting at the door.

Seeing that Chen Che was injured, he asked worriedly, “Why are you injured after not seeing you for a night?”

“I’m fine. It’s just a small injury.”

Chen Che waved his hand and entered the cash withdrawal hall. He deposited the 70,000 yuan in the bank.

Seeing that Chen Che did not want to say anything, the VJ did not pursue further and turned on the camera.

When the netizens in the live-stream saw the bandage on Chen Che’s arm, they also asked curiously what had happened, but Chen Che did not give a clear response.

Sweet Love’s production team had informed them yesterday that they were holding an event, so Chen Che could only take leave and go to the broadcast station building to film.

Chen Che was the last to arrive. When they saw the strap on his arm, everyone widened their eyes and subconsciously glanced at Fang Weixun.

Fang Weixun’s injuries were more serious than Chen Che’s, and the wounds were basically all on his face.

Both of them were injured at the same time. Did they fight?

The netizens in the live-stream also expressed the same doubts. Everyone knew that Fang Weixun and Chen Che had a grudge. It was very likely that they would fight.

When the official staff saw Chen Che walk into the studio, they became nervous, afraid that he and Fang Weixun would fight in the next second. At that time, there would be no need to broadcast today’s program.

In the next second, an unexpected scene appeared. Not only did the two of them not fight, but they even smiled at each other, looking extremely harmonious.

Even Lin Xi was a little surprised. When did Chen Che become so familiar with Fang Weixun?

At this moment, the host walked in front of everyone and announced loudly, “The theme of this event is The Secret Room. Every couple will choose the theme by drawing lots. After entering the secret room, display your intelligence and tacit understanding. The couple who escapes the secret room the fastest will obtain two couple pendants!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the staff brought over the couple pendant. The pendant was made of white jade. It was not big, but the carving was extremely exquisite.

The female guests’ eyes lit up when they saw the white jade pendant. After all, which woman didn’t like jewelry?

A look of determination flashed across Luo Yuelin’s eyes. Usually, the reward was a bonus. She did not care about that bit of money at all, but the couple pendants given by the production team had a different meaning. This was a symbol of her ability.

“Li Wei, no matter what, we have to win this competition today. Have you remembered what I asked you to remember previously?”

Luo Yuelin lowered her voice and whispered in Li Wei’s ear.

Li Wei nodded with a smug expression. “Don’t worry.”

Before the event began, Luo Yuelin had already bribed one of the staff members to reveal a portion of the content of the puzzle game.

After Luo Yuelin received the content of the puzzle, she immediately gave Li Wei a copy and instructed him to memorize it.

“Everyone, are you ready? Now, let’s enter the drawing of lots. Every couple will send out a person to draw lots to choose the theme of the secret room.”

The host pointed at the box beside him. The few of them immediately walked to the front of the stage and drew their lots.

Chen Che’s luck was not bad. He drew a medium-difficulty secret room theme. Fang Weixun and Zheng Hui were in a worse state and drew the most difficult theme in this round.

On the surface, this game tested one’s intelligence and cooperation, but at the same time, it also tested one’s luck. If one drew the most difficult theme, it would be very difficult to win the competition when one was at a disadvantage.

Fang Weixun had never studied much to begin with, so how could he know how to solve riddles? Now that he had drawn the most difficult version, he basically had no chance of winning.

“Zheng Hui, why don’t we forfeit?” Fang Weixun suggested.

Zheng Hui rolled her eyes at him before shouting at the staff, “Fang Weixun is injured and it’s not convenient for him to participate in the event. We’ve decided to forfeit!”

Actually, Zheng Hui knew very well that even if they participated in this event, there was a high chance that they would be last. It was better to forfeit directly to avoid embarrassing themselves in public.

...

After some discussion, the production team agreed to Fang Weixun’s request after considering that he was injured. They were even allowed to watch from the side.

The event officially began. The couples stood at the entrance of the theme they had chosen.

“Start the games!”

After the host announced, everyone pushed open the door and walked into the secret room.

After entering the door, they were surrounded by darkness. They only had a weak flashlight in their hands.

Lin Xi held Chen Che’s hand tightly, her entire body tense.

BANG!

Suddenly, a violent sound came from above. A cage descended from the sky and wanted to trap the two of them.

Chen Che reacted quickly and quickly reached out to push Lin Xi away.

The cage fell. Lin Xi escaped, but Chen Che was trapped in the cage.
