Chapter 41
"Hurry up! The next thing is..." Shen Ci'an turned over the page of the scary cruise ship in the Halloween activity booklet, "The float parade and the fireworks show at twelve o'clock!"
Gu Zheng's footsteps were sloppy, his face was pale, and he was still in a state of shock.
Shen Ci'an gave a thumbs up, and then slowly lowered it.
"Mr. Gu, is this not enough?"
Gu Zheng pretended to be calm, bit back and said: "I really don't understand why you have to come to these places, you really don't look naive."
"Yes, yes, naive." Shen Ci'an covered her lips and smiled.
It's just that it will be his 30th birthday in a while, and this early age will pass by in a flash. If you don't play around now, when you are 30 years old, he really doesn't have the heart.
There was a flame-breathing performer standing on the side of the road. Shen Ci'an didn't pay attention and was taken aback. Gu Zheng immediately protected him behind him.
"Be careful."
"Oh." Shen Ci'an lowered his eyes to see Gu Zheng's hand on his shoulder, with well-defined joints, clean and slender, which always makes people feel at ease quickly.
There aren't many night events open. Today is mainly Halloween theme night. For the sake of a certain CEO's mental health, he skipped the most haunted house events. It's a pity.This is to let Tong Shu know that the tickets he sent were wasted so much, and he doesn't know how long he will laugh at Gu Zheng. Looking at the tall and big man, who knows that he will be afraid of ghosts.
The float parade was about to arrive at the designated location. Anyway, I was old, and I should take a break after playing for so long, so I found a bench to sit down, which happened to be the place where I could see the float parade.
But his dress is too eye-catching, and he has a talkative personality at first glance. Many tourists passing by took pictures of him as a staff member. Many asked for a group photo. Gu Zheng refused a few, but there were too many to refuse , in the end he had no choice but to accept it.
When the float reached the route, the crowd was attracted to it. Gu Zheng was about to get up, but was gently grabbed by Shen Ci'an.
The faces of two people appeared on the screen of the mobile phone, very much like the master of the castle and his secret servant.
Shen Ci'an raised his index finger, "Private collection, never post to Moments."
Gu Zheng didn't say anything.
Whoever made him fall in love with a 'master' who was too good-looking, he could only treat today as a secret date.If the photo is not recognized by others, President Gu will probably go crazy.
The main halloween float slowly came into their sight along with the screams of the tourists. Shen Ci'an stretched his neck to look at it, his eyes full of anticipation.
Many people rushed up to take pictures with the floats, but there were too many people in front of them at this time, they missed the perfect location and could only watch silently from a distance.
Unexpectedly, this year's float actually included a "trick or treat" activity. Just walk up to the float and say "Trickortreat" to get candy in the park. There is no age limit, and many adults go up and ask for candy .
"There are secret words in the package!" The tourist who snatched the candy next to him said in surprise.
Friends surrounded her, all took out candies and shared their packaging codes.
Shen Ci'an showed a longing expression.
Gu Zheng: "...Don't even think about it, I won't go."
Shen Ci'an could only sigh, "Well, although I really want to, as a slave, I can only obey my master's orders."
If the floats pass in front of you, if you drive any further, you really have no chance.Seeing that he was about to miss it, Shen Ci'an stood up, pretended to be indifferent, pointed to the Ferris wheel in the distance, and asked Gu Zheng to go with him.
He said he wanted it, but in fact he was quite unwilling to squeeze it. First of all, the clothes were very troublesome, with the wings hanging behind him, it was difficult to ensure that he would not accidentally injure other tourists.
The float had gone far away, Shen Ci'an took out the manual and flipped through it, and then he was waiting for the fireworks show at night. He was quite looking forward to this project, but he had to wait for a while.
After walking a few steps, he turned around and wanted to ask Gu Zheng if he wanted to buy some drinks, but found that Gu Zheng did not follow, but stood there with a look of bitterness and hatred.
"What's wrong? Are you uncomfortable?" Shen Ci'an wondered.
"Really want?" Gu Zheng asked.
Shen Ci'an was thoughtful, knowing that Gu Zheng was talking about candy, and nodded with a light smile, thinking that Gu Zheng would not go anyway, so he simply teased him, then pouted and said: "Yes, I really want it."
"Wait for me for a while." After Gu Zheng said this, he left him and ran quickly to catch up with the float that had gone far.
It took Shen Ci'an a while to react, and he looked at Gu Zheng's back in disbelief.
No way, he thought.
At this time, Gu Zheng had already caught up with the float, regardless of the crowd in front of him, he really squeezed in.
When he came back, he already had two candies in his hand.
Although there were only two of them, Shen Ci'an saw his sweating profusely, with a livid expression on his face, he let out a snort, and bent down laughing.
"You are really going!"
"Otherwise!" Gu Zheng panted heavily, and stuffed the candy into his hand.
Before that, he would never have believed that Gu Zheng was the kind of person who could do such a thing, that he could really put down his face and go to the crowd to ask for two candies back for him.
Two very ordinary chocolates, the taste is even a bit unflattering. When they come out, there is a secret word customized by the park printed inside, so there is really no need to lose face.
But he felt that this candy was more delicious than those expensive candies he ate before. The sweetness melted in his mouth, but this one melted in his heart.
When the Ferris wheel rises to the highest point.
He looked down, and the whole park was brightly lit, which made him think of the day he came back, overlooking the whole city A on the plane, and it was the same scenery, which made people feel happy.
In the closed two-person space, he could only hear the breathing of the two of them and the sound of candy paper.
He looked at the light and saw the secret words on the package.
Which is your favorite candy?
He doesn't have a favorite candy. Strictly speaking, it is more appropriate to ask Gu Zheng this question, after all, he is a sweet tooth lover.
"What did you write?" Gu Zheng's eyes fell on his candy packaging.
Shen Ci'an thought for a while and said, "Whichis your favorites sweet?"
"You are my sweety."
It was difficult for Shen Ci'an to tell whether the words were Gu Zheng's own love words or the secret words on the packaging. Only when Gu Zheng turned the paper over did Shen Ci'an know that the words were indeed printed on the paper.
what.
His face was flushed by the light.
I thought it was a confession.
It seems that everyone likes this kind of ambiguity before being together. Through the ambiguity of thick fog, people can feel the taste and taste, and fall into a state that is difficult to let go.I am afraid that I will lose if I retreat, and I am also afraid that I will lose if I get too close.
It seems that this is the best.
Stepping on the ground again, Shen Ci'an suddenly heard someone call his name.
"Damn it! It's Lily!" he said in surprise.
Gu Zheng followed suit.
Unexpectedly, such a crowded place would allow them to meet Lin and his wife, Gu Zhengzheng felt annoyed.
Shen Ci'an suddenly pulled him up and ran all the way.
"What are you doing!" Gu Zheng shouted.
Panting, Shen Ci'an rushed into the crowd at the other end, and responded loudly: "It would be bad if they caught them!"
"Why?" Gu Zheng asked.
"Don't you want to screw up today's date!"
Gu Zheng then accelerated his speed and said loudly: "Then run!"
Just a few months ago, Gu Zheng was still defending his dignity as the president of the Gu Corporation, defending the label of a workaholic given to him by the outside world.
But in this short period of time, his average daily working time has been shortened by at least one hour, and the number of times he goes out to socialize has dropped significantly, for obvious reasons.At least in the past, he would not spend his non-working time on dating, let alone mess around with ambiguous objects in his free time, staged a plot of chasing each other in the crowd, and even in a crowded festival, in a crowded crowd Look around for a lost demon.
No, people say it is a succubus.
He lost Shen Ci'an.
Surrounded by countless horror elements, the lights penetrated the branches, shadowy, and in the strange sound effects, he managed to avoid the iron chain in the hands of a certain NPC, not because he was afraid, but rather surprised, he hated this kind of sudden Terrified, and even more resentful of being forced to be separated by a crowd.
Even though he was tall enough, he still couldn't see Shen Ci'an's figure, and he couldn't help feeling flustered.
There is a feeling of helplessness due to the loss of important items. The joy of the previous second stopped abruptly at this moment, leaving only countless flusters, vaguely like returning to five years ago, everything was obviously calm, he I was still thinking about the future, but the person next to me suddenly disappeared, and the heart that was just filled was hollowed out at this moment.
If he reluctantly accepted tonight's nonsense before, now all he has left is regret.
Other people's happiness is too noisy, so noisy that there is a long wait on the other side of the ringing of the mobile phone, but they can't wait until the call is connected.
He didn't want to lose that person again, not even for a minute or a second a day.
When he was about to go crazy with anxiety, he faintly heard a cry for help not far away.
Gu Zhengxun looked at the cry for help.
"Primary school boy! I'm here!" Shen Ci'an raised his arms, and his beautiful fingertips passed over people's heads, waving at him continuously.
"Are you okay, are you injured?" Gu Zheng pulled him to look around.
When Gu Zheng squeezed through the crowd, his clothes were slightly messed up, and someone stepped on his shoes, but he didn't seem to feel any pain, and he didn't even bother to take care of his clothes, only holding Shen Ci'an's hand again Stay and keep away the passing crowd.
Shen Ci'an was stunned. He thought that Gu Zheng would ask him why he ran around. Although running around was not his intention, he felt that Gu Zheng's character would probably scold him, but in fact he didn't.It seemed that a group of high school students came together before, and they were scattered by a fight. Their hands could not resist the turbulent crowd, and they were forced to separate. Shen Ci'an had to go to a place where there were few people before making plans.
In fact, he saw Gu Zheng early in the morning. After all, even if the figure of this man is submerged in the crowd, he can be seen at a glance. It is too dazzling, making the people around him ordinary and vulgar.
But he purposely didn't call Gu Zheng at the first moment. He saw the panic on the man's face, his brows were slightly frowned, and his eyes kept searching around. Shen Ci'an felt a little helpless and vulnerable Reluctant to call him, like a doll abandoned in the crowd, makes people feel distressed and pitiful.
No matter what, these elements are not very common in Gu's president, but after watching for a while, I can't help it, and I don't want to let Gu Zheng be too anxious.
"Too many people today, follow me later." Gu Zheng was relieved to confirm that he was fine.
At this time, an NPC playing the role of a butcher and holding a machete came over and roared, which shocked Gu Zhengping for no reason.
"Sir, your boyfriend is kidnapped by me now." The NPC raised a machete and threatened.
Seeing Gu Zheng's slightly stunned expression, Shen Ci'an couldn't help laughing, and just wanted to explain that he was not Gu Zheng's boyfriend.
"What are you going to do again?" Gu Zheng held his forehead slightly, and said helplessly, "How can I let him go with me?"
Shen Ci'an:? ? ?
He was worried about whether the NPC would be scolded at first, but he didn't expect President Gu to actually bring the situation into play.
The NPC pointed to the haunted house project next to it, "Your boyfriend was kidnapped by evil spirits in a haunted house, and you are now going to rescue them. Of course, you can also choose to buy ghost-catching props! XX horror movie peripherals, a limited-time special price of 299 sets ! Contains the code of demons, enchanted books, alchemy ghost needles..."
Before the NPC fully explained the props in the gift shop, Gu Zheng had already entered the entrance of the project without hesitation.
"Your boyfriend is so brave." The NPC couldn't help but admire, "I was just joking, why did he really go? This is the most terrifying haunted house in the entire park, and there are not even a few lights inside!"
Shen Ci'an was still smiling just now, but when he heard this, his face paled immediately, he turned around and rushed in.
Gu Zheng doesn't like anything with horror elements, whether it's horror movies, Halloween, or haunted houses. He is sure that if he hadn't contracted Shen Ci'an's madness, he would never have come in.
Being engulfed in the darkness is not only blind, but also a lack of sense of security. He never explained this to the outside world. After all, people who are afraid of the dark and ghosts will always be laughed at.
He likes and must put on a seemingly indestructible shell for himself, at least in front of outsiders, and only in this way can he secure the position of president.
As the president of the Gu Corporation, he cannot have weaknesses.
But when you like someone, your whole body is full of weaknesses, no matter how hard the shell is, it will be broken by that person.
Dim light, a narrow path, surrounded by an abyss of fire made with special effects, as if if you make a mistake, you will fall into an endless abyss, of course he knows these are fake, but the visual effects will activate the human ego The protection mechanism, even if you know that you will not be irreversible if you make a mistake, it is still very slow and difficult.
It is said to be a haunted house, but there are more scary elements. Those props that occasionally break through the walls will bring people a spiritual shock, and make people scream uncontrollably.
Gu Zheng suppressed the fear in his heart and kept telling himself that as long as he walked out, he would take Shen Ci'an out of this ghostly place, and he really didn't want to stay there for a second.
If there is a next time, you must not be tempted by the deceptive conditions of role-playing, and you must firmly reject it.
But in the end, he still didn't expect that although this haunted house is not complicated, even its special effects are not all the way from beginning to end. The final stage is a completely dark secret room, and the door can only be entered by groping.
The door behind him was closed heavily, and the whole person was completely in darkness.
For a while, he couldn't even take a step.
Can't see, can't see anything, even a little shadow, a little outline can't be found in the field of vision.The eyes can't find a place to focus in the dark, and all eyes can only spread in the entire darkness, making it impossible for people to find the right way out.
At this moment, hurried footsteps came from the door, and he subconsciously thought it was another prank by the NPC. The real NPC in the haunted house project can bring the horror atmosphere to the highest level, which is also a way to force the player to quickly pass the level.
Gu Zheng tentatively took a step outside.
I can't find the location of the exit anyway, what should I do now?Call the staff to throw in the towel and take him out?
No.
But if you want to stay here, what should you do?Shen Ci'an looked carefree, but if he stayed here for a long time, he would definitely be worried.
Suddenly, the door opened, and before he had time to think about what kind of method the NPC would use to intimidate him, a cool hand held him tightly.
Only then did he realize that his hands were shaking all the time.
"I'll take you out."
Shen Ci'an's voice gave him a sense of direction in the narrow dark room, and the fear and unknowns brought to him by the darkness were swept away at this moment, and his restless heart immediately became firm.
He thought, this time, he must hold Shen Ci'an firmly, and they cannot be separated even in the turbulent crowd.
"Why are you here?" He controlled his voice, trying not to make it sound strange.
Shen Ci'an led him outside and said, "The staff said that this haunted house is different, there are almost no lights inside."
He paused, and then said: "I really didn't expect you to come in, you wouldn't come to play with this kind of thing."
Shen Ci'an bit his lips tightly, he was almost scared to death.There are two roads in this haunted house, one is a dead end, and the other is a way out. He searched for a long time but failed to find Gu Zheng, only then realized that Gu Zheng might have gone wrong.
There are a lot of people who go wrong in this place, but in fact there will be a guide board in the middle, with very simple puzzles written on it, as long as you see the guide board and solve the problem correctly, it is impossible to go wrong.
With Gu Zheng's ability, how could he not be able to solve such a simple problem.
The only possibility is that Gu Zheng didn't see it at all.
"I thought you had discussed with the NPC to punish me." Gu Zheng smiled lightly.
Shen Ci'an said a little excitedly: "How could I punish you for this kind of thing! You are night blind and can't see clearly, I'm not crazy!"
Congenital night blindness, genetic factors lead to rod ladder rhodopsin synthesis dysfunction, there is no special treatment, and it is carried for life.
"You're scaring me to death."
Finally walking to a place with lights, Shen Ci'an leaned against the wall and took a heavy breath.
"Sorry." Gu Zheng barely saw him clearly, even if a scary doll suddenly fell from above at this time, he didn't think he would be afraid anymore.
Shen Ci'an couldn't figure out why it was Gu Zheng who wanted to say sorry instead.
Obviously, this sorry should be said by myself.
"So you knew it all along." Gu Zheng said.
He managed to find a focal point in the darkness, and at this moment he couldn't bear to look away, and took Shen Ci'an's hand, "Let's go, take me out."
Shen Ci'an nodded.
How could he not know, but Gu Zheng regards this as an unspeakable matter, and it is rare for him to expose it. After all, the disease is not too serious. As long as it is not under extremely dim conditions, there is almost no light source. It's perfectly normal to look up.
"If I didn't see it, I wouldn't continue the press conference that day."
Standing in front of the forked road, Shen Ci'an suddenly realized that on the day of the press conference, his position was behind the auditorium, and the dark curtain fell, which was a place that Gu Zheng could not see at all.
He has always been very thankful that Gu Zheng did not make impulsive actions that day, at least he carried out the press conference perfectly taking into account the overall situation.
But what does this sentence mean?If it is visible, if he knows that he is not there, will Gu Zheng interrupt the press conference?
"You don't have to worry about this." Gu Zheng seemed to know what he was thinking, and comforted him: "We have many emergency measures. If I leave that day, someone will continue the press conference. I just want you to know , I don’t care about you. If I have to choose, I would rather have an imperfect press conference than want you to get hurt.”
The other end of the bifurcated road is a road leading to the exit and the light. If Gu Zheng chooses not to be with him anymore, then his father-son relationship will not be stagnant, and he will go further and further on the road of President Gu. The farther and more successful he is, the brighter his future will be.
Losing an ex-boyfriend is nothing but a passer-by on the road of life. Shen Ci'an knows that there are actually many people who are better-looking than him in the world. Gu Zhengda can choose a future without him. There will be new people appearing in Gu Zheng's life.
Maybe it will be a person who is familiar with the business world and can help each other at work. No matter how bad it is, he will also be a perfect house husband. exhausted.
But Gu Zheng insisted on going another way, one way to the dark, and refused to turn back when he hit the south wall.
Obviously, I can neither help him at work, nor can I cook a delicious dinner when Gu Zheng comes home.
But Gu Zheng still chose him.
"I don't think you've ever understood how much you meant to me."
Gu Zheng took his hand and walked behind him.
Shen Ci'an didn't dare to stop.
"Brother, are you listening to me?"
Shen Ci'an got goosebumps all over his body, clenched Gu Zheng's hand, and hummed lightly.
"If you hadn't encouraged me to take the postgraduate entrance examination across majors and walked me out of my father's shadow, I wouldn't have achieved what I am today. I would still be trapped in my father's discipline, do what he wants me to do, and become the obedient and sensible person in his mind. son."
Shen Ci'an saw the exit, and the coming light fell in front of them.
"So you never have to feel inferior in front of me. If you still want to stand on the operating table, no matter how long it takes or how many doctors you have to see, I will accompany you there. If you don't want to, you can do nothing Do, always rely on me."
The pouring rain tore through the dark night sky, and the fog was washed away by the rain. The decorative lights washed by the rain flashed comically and hummed a strange marching song, and there was a crackling sound from the iron sheet above the exit.There is no lightning, no thunder, this is just a heavy rain without warning, if you are lucky, this may be a fleeting shower, the fireworks show will continue, if you are unlucky, the fireworks show will be canceled, this dark The sky has no one to light it up.
The autumn rain in this city is not like the drizzle described in the book, it is more like the last roar from the mouth of the autumn tiger, sweeping away the temperature, and the autumn is poured in with the rain. From the cracks in the ground, the cold air was brought out, from summer to autumn, and then from autumn to turn the page, as if they also turned the page.
His face was drenched by the slanting rain, and he wore a warm tuxedo jacket over his shoulders. He saw the staff bring an expensive umbrella. The umbrellas in this gift shop are always gaudy, except that they are almost expensive. Nothing special.
Men's aristocratic shirts in the Middle Ages had a lot of lace, lace on the chest, and lace on the cuffs. From the very beginning, Shen Ci'an never thought that Gu Zheng would really follow his dress code to attend this date.
Gu Zheng's wrist was covered with wet lace cuffs, and he held Shen Ci'an's cold hands tightly.
Under the heavy rain, the lights seemed to be dimmed, and most of the tourists gathered in the fireworks viewing area were disheartened. They presumably received a notice that tonight's fireworks show was cancelled.
Gu Zheng looked at the sky, and Shen Ci'an also looked at the sky.
Shen Ci'an's heart was as heavy as this dark night, but he was not like this night, unable to spit out huge raindrops.
That's too bad, you should check the weather forecast.
What a bad date.
Bad date.
He was thinking like this, and suddenly, most of the sky was illuminated. He didn't know if it was real or fake thunder and lightning, and it tore open the sky with a swish, then turned black again, and finally revealed a spot of light. big.
Finally, through that point, it expanded to the entire starry sky, with fireworks all over the sky, realistic fireworks explosions, and under the lightning and thunder, the colorful halos in the sky seemed to form the beauty of the Northern Lights.
"Look! Is this a holographic fireworks show!"
"Really! I thought there would be no fireworks tonight!"
"This ticket is too cheap!"
The flowers unfolding in the sky are accompanied by raindrops, but the fireworks illuminate the entire darkness, even the raindrops.
"I heard that it will rain, just in case, let them communicate with the park in advance, I hope you will not be disappointed."
The fireworks are so beautiful, but Gu Zheng just lowered his head, his eyes fell on Shen Ci'an, looking a little nervous.
Shen Ci'an stretched out his hand to catch a drop of rainwater, and the firework illuminated his eyes. He felt that it was not a firework, but that his eyes were full of the love that that person bloomed wantonly in the sky for everyone to see.
So, how can you be disappointed.
