Chapter 39: Mission Accomplished
Shen Xun was now leading Su Jian Yue out. She looked at Su Jian Yue beside her with a very good mood. Su Jian Yue kept her eyes closed, not daring to open them at all.
Shen Xun smiled at her gently. “Don’t be scared, don’t be scared. We’re almost out. Be careful, we’re going down the stairs.”
“Okay,” Su Jian Yue replied obediently.
For safety reasons, no staff members chased after Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue as they went downstairs.
Even so, Shen Xun waited until they were almost at the main entrance before she said to Su Jian Yue, “Alright, we’re almost out. You can open your eyes now.”
Su Jian Yue obediently opened her eyes. At this moment, they could already see the light from the main entrance.
Su Jian Yue excitedly hugged Shen Xun. “Older Sister, that’s great! We’re finally out.”
“Mmm, you don’t have to be scared this time. Let’s go. Let’s go out,” Shen Xun said, and then led Su Jian Yue towards the hospital entrance.
When the two of them came out, Mao Ning immediately went up to them. “Whoa, you two are too fierce. You even dared to go into the morgue. I’m really impressed.”
Yu Lin also chimed in with a smile, “I’m impressed too. It’s well-deserved for you two to go on a date tomorrow.”
Su Jian Yue was completely stunned. She turned to look at Shen Xun. “Older Sister? What morgue?”
“Nothing. They’re just teasing you,” Shen Xun said, quickly comforting the little puppy, afraid of scaring her.
Su Jian Yue was still half-believing, half-doubting. No wonder it was so cold just now. Was it because Older Sister and I went into the morgue?
Even with the big sun outside, Su Jian Yue couldn’t help but shiver. She reached out and gently pulled on Shen Xun’s wrist, muttering in a small voice, “I’m scared~”
Shen Xun quickly took Su Jian Yue’s hand, her fingertips caressing her wrist to comfort her. “It’s okay. They’re all staff inside. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Besides, we’re already out. Don’t be scared, don’t be scared.”
“Mmm,” she finally nodded pitifully.
Seeing Shen Xun and the others come out, Yang Rui also walked over. “Have you two collected enough heartbeat cards?”
“Mmm, all ten cards are in here,” Shen Xun said, and took the cards out of her bag, handing them to the host.
“Alright, then the first place for today’s game has been decided. The ones who have won the opportunity to go on a date tomorrow are Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue. Let’s give them a round of applause,” Yang Rui said, and clapped along with everyone else.
As if remembering something, Yang Rui quickly said, “Quick, have someone inform the other two groups that the first place has been decided. They don’t have to look for them anymore. They can come out now.”
The staff quickly arranged for someone to inform Jiang Ying and the others. Before long, the four of them came out of the hospital building.
“Who is it? Who found ten cards so quickly?” Jiang Ying asked curiously.
Yu Lin pointed to Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue. “Shen Xun’s group. I suggest you all go home and watch the replay after the show is over. Shen Xun is really fierce.”
“Is that so? Alright then. It’s good that we don’t have to look anymore. The production team really went to great lengths to find such a scary place. My voice is hoarse from screaming,” Jiang Ying said, and quickly took some water to drink.
Seeing that everyone had come out, Yang Rui smiled. “Alright, then everyone is here. The time is now exactly twelve o’clock. You don’t have to prepare your own lunch today. The production team has arranged a hotel buffet. When we get there, you can just eat directly. Now, everyone can get on the bus.”
Only then did Su Jian Yue’s mood calm down. She looked at Shen Xun. “Older Sister, shall we get on the bus too?”
“Mmm, let’s go. To the parking lot,” Shen Xun said, and then led Su Jian Yue by the wrist towards the parking lot.
Zhao Qifei’s gaze fell on Su Jian Yue’s wrist, and he felt a sour taste in his heart. Wait, why does Shen Xun like this type?
Crybaby, loves to act cute, and is afraid of ghosts. The more Zhao Qifei thought about it, the angrier he became. If he had been with Shen Xun in today’s game, he definitely wouldn’t have come out so early. It was just a pity that he was in a group with Mao Ning.
Yu Lin’s gaze also fell on Su Jian Yue’s wrist. She didn’t have as many complaints as Zhao Qifei, but she just felt a bit disappointed. Su Jian Yue and Shen Xun’s relationship was indeed intimate. This was not something she could change in just a few days.
Su Jian Yue, however, was completely unaware of all this. She had already gotten on the bus with Shen Xun. After sitting down, Su Jian Yue obediently twisted open a bottle of mineral water and then handed it to Shen Xun. “Have some water and rest for a bit.”
Shen Xun was in a very good mood. Her little puppy couldn’t be taken for a walk by someone else this time. Shen Xun reached out and took the mineral water bottle, and also pinched Su Jian Yue’s cheek.
Seeing Su Jian Yue staring at her blankly, Shen Xun smiled at her and brought the water bottle to her lips, and started to drink.
Although Shen Xun wasn’t scared during this trip to the hospital, she was still a bit tired. She drank half a bottle of mineral water in one go.
After she finished drinking, she saw the little puppy looking at her with expectant eyes. Shen Xun then handed the water in her hand to Su Jian Yue. “Do you want some?”
“Mhmm.” Su Jian Yue obediently took the water bottle. There was a faint lipstick mark on the mouth of the bottle.
The tips of Su Jian Yue’s ears turned slightly red. She shyly moved closer and obediently drank the water.
Su Jian Yue’s expression naturally did not escape Shen Xun’s eyes. Seeing the little puppy get shy after drinking water, she was so amused she laughed.
“Older Sister, what are you laughing at?” Su Jian Yue asked, swallowing the water in her mouth.
Shen Xun reached out and tidied her hair. “Nothing. I’m just laughing at how cute you are.”
“That’s for sure,” Su Jian Yue huffed twice, her tail almost wagging to the sky.
After being smug, she obediently drank the rest of the water and then threw the bottle into the trash can.
The host, Yang Rui, said from the front, “Everyone, take a short break. That hotel is not far from our Heartbeat House, so it will take about an hour to get there. Those who want to rest can take a short nap in the car.”
Su Jian Yue looked at Shen Xun. “Do you want to sleep for a while? I didn’t help much in the morning’s game. You must be exhausted, right?”
Shen Xun shook her head with a smile. “I didn’t do much. I’m not that tired, actually.”
“Older Sister, if you want to rest, you can lean on me,” Su Jian Yue said, looking very reliable, completely forgetting who was the one who was almost scared to tears in the haunted house.
Seeing the little puppy being so well-behaved, and at the same time wanting to declare her sovereignty, Shen Xun simply followed Su Jian Yue’s suggestion, leaned towards her, and rested her head on her shoulder, closing her eyes to rest.
Seeing her older sister really leaning on her, the corners of Su Jian Yue’s lips unconsciously curled up. She liked it when her older sister used her.
The camera in the minibus happened to capture this scene, and the netizens in the live stream went crazy with shipping.
[Ahhhhhh! Shen Xun is leaning on Su Jian Yue’s shoulder! The two of them are definitely together. This is too natural.]
[Yeah, and when Shen Xun leaned over, Little Moon even secretly smiled. She also likes it when her older sister leans on her, right?]
[And just now, didn’t you guys notice? Shen Xun and Su Jian Yue drank from the same bottle of water. Isn’t that an indirect kiss?]
[Ahhhhhh, this interaction is too sweet. So what did you two do in the room last night? Mama needs to know too!]
[Hehe, curious +1.]
Su Jian Yue had no idea that her and Shen Xun’s moment had aroused the curiosity of the netizens. She obediently sat there, acting as Shen Xun’s human cushion.
In the two seats to the right of Shen Xun and the others, Yu Lin and Zheng Tianming were sitting. Yu Lin was sitting on the right side by the window. Her gaze would occasionally fall on Su Jian Yue’s side. Seeing Shen Xun resting with her eyes closed on Su Jian Yue’s shoulder, Yu Lin let out a light sigh.
On the day she had gone on a date with Su Jian Yue, Yu Lin could feel that Su Jian Yue was still politely keeping a certain distance from her. It wasn’t like now, where Shen Xun could freely lean on Su Jian Yue’s shoulder.
Yu Lin pinched the bridge of her nose and stopped looking at Su Jian Yue and Shen Xun’s side.
Shen Xun leaned on Su Jian Yue’s shoulder for a while, then straightened up.
“Aren’t you going to sleep?” Su Jian Yue asked.
Shen Xun shook her head. “Leaning like this is not comfortable for my back. I’d rather wait until after we eat and go back to sleep.”
“That’s fine too.” After a moment of thought, Su Jian Yue continued, “Older Sister, then tell me, where did we go in the hospital just now?”
Shen Xun looked at Su Jian Yue. She raised her eyebrows and smiled. “I’m afraid if I tell you, you won’t dare to stay in your room by yourself during the day. You’d better not know.”
“But I’m curious,” Su Jian Yue muttered under her breath.
“You want to know?” Shen Xun asked.
Su Jian Yue quickly and obediently nodded. “Mhmm!”
Shen Xun reached out and pinched the side of Su Jian Yue’s face. “Alright then. I’ll tell you as a bedtime story before you go to sleep tonight.”
Su Jian Yue’s body stiffened. She gave Shen Xun a couple of forced laughs. “Then why don’t we just not talk about it? Hehe, I don’t think I’m that curious anymore.”
Mao Ning, in the back seat, however, laughed. He chimed in, “It’s okay. I’ll tell you. The most exciting part was the end. You and Shen Xun went directly into the morgue. Then Shen Xun even pulled out the morgue’s corpse cabinets one by one to see if there were any heartbeat cards hidden inside. Several of the corpses inside even did sit-ups.”
As Mao Ning spoke, he even made gestures. He shivered and then continued, “Anyway, if it were me, I would probably have been scared and run out long ago. How would I have the mood to look for any cards? I’m really not envious of you two getting first place.”
Shen Xun gave a faint smile. “It’s alright. It’s not as exaggerated as you said. Anyway, they’re all staff inside, so there’s no need to be too scared.”
“No, with that kind of atmosphere, you’d be scared to death even if you knew the ghosts were played by staff. Some of the people who play at this hospital have even fainted from fear. It’s really not strange,” Mao Ning continued to exclaim.
Su Jian Yue shivered and reached out to take Shen Xun’s wrist. “It’s over. I’m starting to get scared.”
Shen Xun looked at the trembling little puppy and comforted her with a smile, “It’s okay. Don’t be scared, don’t be scared. If you’re scared to be by yourself today, I’ll stay with you the whole time.”
“Mmm, thank you, Older Sister,” Su Jian Yue replied very obediently.
Zhao Qifei, who was sitting next to Mao Ning, however, couldn’t stand it anymore. He glanced at Su Jian Yue and complained, “Wait, you’re an alpha. How can you be so timid? Are you pretending to be weak on purpose?”
It had been four days, and he hadn’t gotten close to Shen Xun at all. How could he not be anxious? Therefore, taking advantage of the topic just now, he directly vented his anger on Su Jian Yue.
Before Su Jian Yue could even speak, Shen Xun looked over coldly. “What? Who made the rule that alphas have to be brave?”
“Exactly, exactly. I have my older sister. I’m not afraid of anything!” Su Jian Yue chimed in very obediently.
Seeing the little puppy being so cute, Shen Xun couldn’t resist and reached out to touch the side of her face again. This time, Zhao Qifei was even more furious.
