Chapter 135
Chapter 135
One after another, people with blood smeared around their mouths and a hand in their grip that they were still gnawing on came charging straight at them.
The visual impact, combined with the consequences their imaginations supplied, left both men’s faces ashen.
The visitors had no interest in eating people. What really mattered was the rare chance to see living celebrities and get autographs!
The sudden turn of events also let Chen Chichi breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as they weren’t eating people!
The visitors soon noticed Qin Kaixuan hiding behind him.
“Old Qin!”
The shriek instantly drew everyone’s attention. Once they spotted that thin figure, the crowd immediately split into two groups.
Qin Kaixuan was surrounded by a group of young ladies covered in “blood.”
Chen Chichi, meanwhile, was hemmed in at the center by a bunch of men.
“Big Fool, when are you coming back to the small theater?”
Qin Kaixuan’s face darkened. “I’m not a fool!”
“Big Fool, autograph! Autograph!”
“Big Fool, want to eat hotpot with us?”
Dragged along by the group of young ladies, Qin Kaixuan was forced to sit down beside a small dining table.
Before he could say a word, a spoon was shoved into his hand.
“Hurry and try it. It’s an Amusement Park specialty!”
Qin Kaixuan stared at the brain in front of him, his hand trembling so badly he simply couldn’t bring himself to take a bite.
“Just eat it, fool. It’s made of tofu!”
Hearing the voice beside his ear, Qin Kaixuan steeled himself, shut his eyes, and stuffed the brain into his mouth.
The tofu had soaked up the spicy, numbing broth, making it tender, fresh, and refreshing.
Qin Kaixuan’s eyes instantly lit up. “It’s good!”
Unlike screen actors, people like them, who had started out learning crosstalk, had all been tempered in small venues.
That period had brought them closer to the audience.
The audience was their bread and butter, and Old Qin always kept that saying in mind.
And he really had become like friends with the audience.
Even back when he performed in small venues, if the audience knew he was late, they would bring him grilled cold noodles so he wouldn’t pass out from low blood sugar.
Chen Chichi went to great lengths to satisfy a crowd of visitors’ wishes for autographs and photos before finally managing to break free.
The first thing he saw was Old Qin and a group of young ladies gathered around a human head, digging in.
“Holy crap, how are you already eating?”
Qin Kaixuan handed the spoon to Chen Chichi with one hand.
“Want a bite? It’s pretty good!”
Chen Chichi fell into a rather profound silence. Qin Kaixuan was biting down on a human hand, while his eyes were still fixed on the remaining brain inside the head.
Still, they had known each other for quite some time. With the crisis of his trust shattering hanging over him, Chen Chichi took a bite.
In the span of a single second, Chen Chichi quickly made his decision.
He sat down right beside Qin Kaixuan.
After a bizarre lunch, Chen Chichi sat on a bench, burping.
“Burp~ The park opens again in a bit. What do you want to try?”
Qin Kaixuan swept his gaze around and automatically skipped over the Drop Tower and the Giant Swing.
“The Hot Air Balloon, I guess. That shouldn’t be scary, right?”
Chen Chichi nodded. “I’ve only been here once too, so I don’t know whether it’s scary or not.”
The two sat for a while to digest, and soon it was time for the afternoon opening.
As part of the first group of visitors, Chen Chichi and Qin Kaixuan boarded the Hot Air Balloon together with the Fans.
Qin Kaixuan had only just seen the view by the sea when a voice rang by his ear.
“Old Qin, pull this thing and there’s a surprise!”
Qin Kaixuan reached out and took the rope the Fans handed him, then followed it with his eyes.
The other end happened to be connected to Chen Chichi’s chair.
And as the fool he was, he did not let that nickname down.
Without thinking, he gave it a direct tug.
Chen Chichi, who was still admiring the scenery, had no idea what had happened. His eyes went wide as he dropped straight toward the ground.
Old Qin gripped the rope, his mouth hanging open. As the screams rang in his ears, excitement gradually lit up his eyes.
So the Hot Air Balloon wasn’t for sightseeing after all!
You could play with it like this?
After getting a taste of bungee jumping, Chen Chichi panted hard. “What did you do?!”
Old Qin’s face was full of smiles.
“Chichi, do you remember what you did last night?”
Chen Chichi looked at that length of rope and swallowed. “Bro. Big bro, I was wrong!”
Old Qin yanked the rope hard. “I was wrong back then too. Why didn’t I see you stop?”
Chen Chichi’s screams once again tore through the sky.
“Old Qin, what happened last night?”
Hearing the question beside him, Old Qin’s eyes filled with humiliation.
He and Chen Chichi had ended up together because Run was about to begin recording its new episode.
And as the Guest for the first episode, he had received an enthusiastic welcome from the Run members.
Big Black Bull had forcibly pinned him down, and Chen Chichi had gone even further, shoving a pair of feet that hadn’t been washed in two days right in front of his face.
Torture interrogation!
Under such torment, Qin Kaixuan regretted going out to record a variety show for the first time.
And today was clearly a revenge round!
“The past is too painful to discuss!”
Qin Kaixuan did not explain his humiliating history. He simply focused on pulling the rope.
The tourists all sat to the side, watching the whole drama unfold.
How could watching it on TV compare to seeing it live?
Chen Chichi’s figure shot all the way up from seventy meters to three hundred.
Tears mixed with snot had long since covered his entire face.
“Old Qin, stop it!”
“Qin Kaixuan, if you’ve got guts, don’t stop!”
“Holy crap, Dad, stop playing already!”
It had to be said: after the last recording, Chen Chichi’s endurance had risen sharply.
Qin Kaixuan played with him for a full half hour before finally making him pass out.
Looking at the figure slumped in the chair, Qin Kaixuan suddenly felt a little worried.
“Is he okay?”
Obviously, the unconscious Chen Chichi could not answer that question.
But there were always warmhearted tourists around.
“He’s fine. He’ll wake up in a bit!”
Most of the tourists were very experienced.
Who had ever ridden the Hot Air Balloon without running into a cursed teammate?
Besides, this thing was thrilling, sure, but it really did not affect the body that much.
Usually, if someone fainted, they would wake up after a few minutes.
Qin Kaixuan glanced at the stuff on Chen Chichi’s face and gave up on the idea of continuing to mess with him, instead chatting with the tourists beside him.
As for resistance, that kind of thing naturally developed once you tried a few more attractions.
After being tricked by Director Shi last time, Chen Chichi had experienced the vast majority of the attractions.
After only about five minutes, he slowly opened his eyes.
The first thing he saw was Qin Kaixuan’s smiling face looking down at him.
Memories from not long ago instantly flooded back into his mind.
“Holy crap, don’t!”
“Were you wrong or not?”
“I was wrong!”
“What did you do wrong?”
“I shouldn’t have tortured you for answers, shouldn’t have made you treat us, and shouldn’t have stuffed socks in your mouth!”
Hearing Chichi’s three-part confession, the surrounding tourists immediately grew excited.
What exactly had these two done all night?
Why did it sound so thrilling?
Qin Kaixuan tightened his grip on the rope. “Tell me honestly. What did you guys secretly plot behind my back?”
Chen Chichi stared at the rope of fate. “Brother Chao is going to treat you to dumplings tonight. One plate is stuffed entirely with mustard filling.”
He spoke so quickly that Qin Kaixuan froze for a full two seconds before reacting.
“I’m guessing my dear Brother Chao will be on my side?”
