Villain: He humiliated the protagonist's sister, but she fell in love with him.

She looked away, casually adjusted her earphone settings, and said in a nonchalant tone:

"Let's go, this trip should be about over."

Lin Ba put his arm around Gu Zhi Qiu and followed.

Other tourists were clearly quite interested in this new form of haunted house experience, which involved wearing holographic glasses.

Many of the people in the group were young couples.

After all, haunted houses have always been a catalyst for escalating relationships.

Several boys have already made bold statements:

"Don't be afraid, baby, I'll go first!"

"It's okay, I'm here. If there are any ghosts, I'll be the first to shield you!"

"Don't worry, I'm very brave..."

Once inside, I realized that the immersive experience of these holographic projection glasses was indeed quite strong.

Before they had taken more than a few steps, Gu Zhi Qiu had already snuggled into Lin Ba's arms, pressing herself against him tightly.

If Lin Ba hadn't been by her side, Gu Zhi Qiu would have already taken off her glasses and run away.

However, this kind of spectacle was nothing to Lin Ba.

He even had the leisure to survey the surrounding mechanisms.

As he was walking, a prop hand silently reached for his calf. He turned his foot and easily dodged it with Gu Zhi Qiu.

A knowing glint flashed in Lin Ba's eyes.

So that's how it is. Visually, they use holographic projection to scare people, and tactilely, they use unexpected little movements to deliver a double blow.

He subconsciously listened to his side, but didn't hear Su Shushuang exclaim in surprise.

He nodded to himself: It seems that Sister Shushuang's courage is indeed extraordinary.

What he didn't know was that Su Shushuang's fists were clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white and her face was slightly pale. She just gritted her teeth and didn't make a sound.

Other tourists were not so calm; screams erupted one after another, and some almost jumped up on the spot.

Halfway through the journey, the plot has become increasingly chilling.

The lights flickered on and off, and intermittent, hoarse whispers came through the headphones.

The holographic projection on the wall gradually distorted into faces whose features were indistinct.

There were rustling sounds all around, as if something was trying to squeeze out from the walls.

As I reached a corner, a pale, bluish-white female ghost face suddenly appeared and crashed into me.

The holographic projection is so close that the effect is almost indistinguishable from a real person standing right in front of you with their face close to yours.

He could even clearly see the bloodshot in her pupils!

Lin Ba paused for a moment, even he was slightly shocked, but he quickly regained his composure.

There's no way around it, this close-range ultimate attack is just too overpowered.

No wonder the ticket seller made Lin Ba and his two companions sign a waiver before they bought their tickets.

And specifically inquire whether any of the three of them have heart disease or anything like that.

If someone with a heart condition were to sneak in, they'd probably be sent to see their great-grandmother on the spot.

However, Gu Zhi Qiu was not so composed.

She clung to Lin Ba from the side like a koala, wrapping her arms and legs around him.

She buried her head in Lin Ba's neck and cried out in a sob:

"Junior, I'm done playing, I'm done playing..."

Lin Ba supported her thigh with his other hand, lifting her steadily into his arms. His palm rested against her waist through her clothes, and he lowered his voice:

"Don't be afraid, senior, I'm here."

Gu Zhi Qiu didn't say anything, but just tightened her arms around him, as if she wanted to embed herself in his embrace.

Lin Ba stood there holding her, and suddenly found it a little funny.

He, who is actually older than Gu Zhi Qiu, is now coaxing her like a child.

Lin Ba looked down at Gu Zhi Qiu, who was almost curled up in a ball, gently removed the holographic glasses from her eyes, and softly comforted her:

"It's okay, it's okay, senior, let's stop playing."

She had originally planned to use the haunted house as an opportunity to deepen her relationship with Gu Zhi Qiu, but now it seems the effect has gone a bit too far.

She practically shrank into Lin Ba's arms; if they continued playing like this, she might really develop a phobia of it.

After having his glasses removed, Gu Zhi Qiu remained silent, only burying his head deeper into Lin Ba's chest, his forehead pressed against his clothes.

Lin Ba felt the fabric on his chest being gradually warmed by her breath...

The surrounding tourists were in complete chaos.

Many people were so frightened that they turned and ran away.

Even more outrageous, some boys ran faster than anyone else, leaving their girlfriends behind...

"Darling, don't leave me!"

"Baby, this is terrifying! Can you shield me from it?"

"Mommy, I want to go back to Mommy, waaaaah!"

"..."

Lin Ba held Gu Zhi Qiu and stood there for a while, listening to the howls and cries around him, and couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Goodness, after this haunted house trip, I wonder how many couples will be broken up.

However, just as he was eating melon while holding Gu Zhi Qiu, his other arm was also grabbed.

Immediately afterwards, a delicate fragrance wafted over.

Unlike the gardenia scent on Gu Zhi Qiu, this one was fainter and colder.

Before he could even savor it, a warm and soft touch pressed against the outside of his left leg.

It was obvious that someone had moved closer to her with those long legs.

He had adjusted his glasses slightly to make it easier to appease Gu Zhi Qiu.

At that moment, he turned his head to look at the crooked edge of the glasses frame.

He was surprised to find himself facing Su Shushuang's somewhat pale profile.

He truly hadn't expected that Su Shushuang would also be afraid of these things.

After all, she had ridden roller coasters and pendulum rides before without ever showing any fear.

As they ventured deeper into the passage, the female ghosts that jumped out from around the corners became more and more sudden, and the sound effects grew increasingly eerie.

Although Su Shushuang didn't say it aloud, her body language betrayed her, and she moved closer and closer...

Seeing this, Lin Ba tentatively reached out and gently pulled Su Shushuang into his arms.

Su Shushuang didn't resist much and obediently pressed herself against him...

So, Gu Zhi Qiu on the right was held in his arms, her hand still clutching the hem of his clothes.

Su Shushuang on the left leaned quietly against his shoulder, her clenched fist slowly relaxing as she felt safe.

Lin Ba was flanked by two people, one on each side, as they slowly walked forward through the dimly lit passageway of the haunted house...

After the three of them finished walking the entire route, the surrounding tourists and staff looked at them with some strange expressions.

There was no way around it; Lin Ba was just too conspicuous.

With two stunningly beautiful girls of different styles on either side, this scene would be the center of attention anywhere.

This immediately attracted a lot of envious and jealous glances.

"Damn it, why?! Just because he's handsome?"

"Heh, you have the nerve to say that? You were the fastest runner just now!"

"Ahem, that's called a strategic retreat."

"..."

Just then, Su Shushuang seemed to finally recover from the shock she had just experienced.

She raised her hand to take off her glasses, her gaze unconsciously sweeping around her, noticing the stares of those around her and that she was still leaning against Lin Ba.

She was stunned for a moment, a blush appeared on her face, and she quickly broke free.

"Thank you for just now."

After finishing her speech hastily, Su Shushuang shoved the equipment into the hands of a staff member, turned around, and quickly left.

His retreating figure carried a hint of fleeing in panic...
