68 Sparks of Love
“Chen Che! Are you alright?”
Lin Xi asked with concern. She passed through the railing and held Chen Che’s hand. It seemed that only by holding Chen Che could she feel at ease.
“I’m fine. Just get out. If we were all trapped in the cage, we might lose this game.”
Chen Che said calmly. He guessed that the secret room activity was definitely not as simple as it seemed. There should be layers of obstacles preventing them from leaving.
!!
If he had hesitated just now, he and Lin Xi would have been trapped in the cage. The cage was locked, and it would definitely have taken a long time to get out.
Lin Xi calmed down and observed the surroundings of the cage.
“There’s a password lock on the cage. You can come out as soon as you enter the password.”
Chen Che handed the flashlight in his hand to Lin Xi. “Look for clues outside. Be careful of the mechanism!”
“The production team will definitely try their best to separate us. You have to be careful!”
Lin Xi nodded solemnly. “Got it.”
In the secret chamber where Luo Yuelin and Li Wei were.
“Yuelin, we’re all trapped. How are we going to get out!” Li Wei asked helplessly.
“How would I know?” Luo Yuelin suppressed her anger and sounded a little irritable.
At this moment, Luo Yuelin and Li Wei also encountered the same situation. What was awkward was that both of them were trapped.
In this secret room event, although the theme and difficulty of the secret room were different, in order to show fairness, the production team set up roughly the same obstacles for every couple. It tested their tacit understanding, patience, and intelligence.
Time passed bit by bit, and Luo Yuelin became more and more frustrated. She had stuffed so much money into the game to understand the puzzles, but now, as soon as she entered the secret room, she was locked up in a cage.
“Hurry up and think of a way! Can’t you be a little useful!”
Luo Yuelin crossed her arms and kicked the railing angrily.
At this moment, Li Wei was shining the weak flashlight around. He realized that there was a painting on the wall and a poem beside it. However, the flashlight was not bright enough to see the content.
“Yuelin, my eyesight is bad. Look at what’s on it. I think it must be related to the password lock.”
Li Wei handed the flashlight to Luo Yuelin.
With great effort, Luo Yuelin stuck her head out and shone the flashlight on the painting. It was not easy for her to see the contents.
“I’m going blind. Hurry up and think of a way to solve the riddle. I can’t stay here any longer!”
In the other room, with Lin Xi’s help, Chen Che had successfully got out of the cage. The two of them began to search for clues to enter the next room.
Because the theme Chen Che chose was Horror style, the secret room was filled with eerie props and decor.
Lin Xi knew that this was all fake, but she still couldn’t help but be afraid.
Knock, knock, knock!
Suddenly, there was a knocking sound from the other side of the wall, scaring Lin Xi so much that her entire body tensed up.
The next second, the mirror hanging on the wall suddenly lit up. A bloody head appeared with a strange smile.
“Ahhh!”
Lin Xi screamed and subconsciously jumped into Chen Che’s arms. Her slender legs wrapped around his waist and her hands wrapped tightly around his neck.
Afraid that she would fall, Chen Che hurriedly supported her body and patted her back gently to comfort her. “Don’t be afraid. It’s fine. That head is gone. If you don’t believe me, look back.”
Lin Xi was still in shock. She tentatively turned around and glanced at the mirror. The mirror returned to normal, but she still refused to let go.
Chen Che was helpless. He could only hug Lin Xi in his arms and continue to search for clues.
Looking at the sweetness between the two of them, the live-stream exploded.
[Wahaha! Xi-Che couple are too sweet! They can even create sparks of love in a secret room!]
[I watched Goddess Lin Xi’s jump just now and Old Scrooge Chen’s one-handed hug several times. It was really amazing!]
[Did you see Old Scrooge Chen’s doting expression? I’m about to fall for him!]
[This scene is so beautiful! Luo Yuelin and Li Wei are about to quarrel next door.]
At this moment, Luo Yuelin and Li Wei finally came out of the cage. They were both physically and mentally exhausted.
Fortunately, Li Wei had already memorized the next segment of the puzzle-solving game. He was filled with confidence and pretended to be thinking.
A minute later, he successfully took out a jade token from the password box.
Luo Yuelin took the jade token and placed it into a groove on the table.
Thud!
The sound of the mechanism opening made Luo Yuelin overjoyed. However, before she could be happy for two seconds, she suddenly lost her footing and fell suddenly onto the sponge cushion.
“Ah!”
Luo Yuelin screamed and was about to break down.
At this moment, she had already cursed the entire production team in her heart. Could this be considered a couple’s game? Wasn’t this purely torture?
“Grab my hand and I’ll pull you up.” Li Wei bent down and reached out his hand to Luo Yuelin.
However, Li Wei was not tall and did not have as much strength as Chen Che. He used a Herculean effort to pull Luo Yuelin out of the pit.
When Luo Yuelin came out, the two of them were slumped on the ground in a sorry state.
At the same time, in Chen Che and Lin Xi’s secret room.
The two of them had already solved two mysteries in a row and obtained important items, but they still could not find the exit to the next room.
Afraid that Lin Xi would be afraid, Chen Che chatted with her as he searched for clues. His voice was faint, but it made Lin Xi feel very at ease.
...
“Lin Xi, do you think the production team definitely doesn’t want us to go out too quickly? If you were the one who designed the secret room, where would you hide the clues?” Chen Che asked thoughtfully.
Lin Xi also began to think. Suddenly, the two of them looked at each other and said in unison, “In the mirror!”
Chen Che walked to the mirror and took a closer look. He realized that the glass outside could be taken down.
After removing the glass, Chen Che saw a red cloth hanging in the square groove.
“Lin Xi, close your eyes.”
Chen Che was afraid that the same situation would happen again, so he told Lin Xi in advance to prevent her from being frightened.
Lin Xi closed her eyes obediently. Chen Che immediately lifted the red cloth. There was no head behind it, but darkness.
Chen Che took out his flashlight and shone inside. To his surprise, he realized that it was a well-decorated room.
“Open your eyes. It’s safe.”
Chen Che walked to Lin Xi’s side, held her hand, and gently stroked her head. “Lin Xi, the exit is behind the mirror. I’ll send you there first.”
Lin Xi looked at the dark hole and hesitated, but she still braced herself and nodded.
...
“Don’t be afraid. Close your eyes and don’t look at anything after you go over. I’ll be there soon.”
Chen Che patted her shoulder and picked Lin Xi up. Then, Lin Xi jumped into the room next door on all fours.
Lin Xi closed her eyes tightly, but she kept feeling that there were countless eyes staring at her. However, that fear only lasted for an instant before her body fell into a warm embrace.
