Chapter 93: Chapter 93: Private Customization

[The mature woman has spent 230 yuan on you. Affinity: 91 points. Cashback: 20,930 yuan.]

This system notification sent a jolt right through Su Yunzhou. The cashback from a high Affinity level felt incredibly satisfying.

Liu Yiyi had already bought a discounted couple’s ticket while they were On the Road. There really weren’t many people at this hour. After their tickets were scanned, the two quickly passed through the turnstiles and entered the park. Liu Yiyi clung to Su Yunzhou’s arm, marching excitedly toward the rotating swing ride and the giant pendulum.

"I want to ride this!"

"Sure!"

Fifteen minutes later.

Su Yunzhou leaned against a wall, hunched over and dry-heaving. "I’m... fine... GAG..."

Liu Yiyi’s pretty face showed a mix of worry and amusement. "You... you should’ve told me beforehand that you couldn’t handle spinning rides!"

Su Yunzhou felt like his head was spinning. "I didn’t think I’d get this dizzy.

"Let’s go... I’ll have some water and we can keep going... URGH..."

"GIGGLE." Liu Yiyi couldn’t hold it back anymore, covering her mouth as she laughed softly.

After he rested for a while, Liu Yiyi took him to try a few other attractions. As long as it wasn’t a dizzying spinning ride, Su Yunzhou was perfectly fine. The two simply queued up wherever the lines were shortest.

When they played bumper cars, perhaps because of Liu Yiyi’s striking beauty, they encountered quite a few drivers trying to show off by targeting them. Su Yunzhou took on the duty of protecting her, but ultimately ended up getting bumped into a state of utter disorientation.

After getting off the ride, he looked entirely unconvinced of his defeat, complaining that they had been bullied by sheer numbers and that on driving skills alone, he could have left them all in the dust. His rant made Liu Yiyi burst into laughter, even as she secretly rubbed her sore behind from all the jolting.

They bought some sodas and a small bucket of popcorn, strolling and snacking as they enjoyed a few more relaxing rides. Soon, the sun began to set.

Looking at the Ghost Castle not too far away, Liu Yiyi said, "Does this Warrior dare to challenge it?"

The Warrior looked up. The area ahead was pitch-black, looking incomparably eerie under the glow of the setting sun, complete with dilapidated fences and mottled, blood-red exterior walls.

"Are you sure you want to go in?"

"Mhm!"

Liu Yiyi’s eyes carried a hint of excitement. Going on an adventure with her sweetheart was a joyful prospect.

The two walked straight to the entrance of the Evil Spirit Castle. A sign on the wall read, "Do not assault the NPCs."

The NPC guarding the door addressed them. "Welcome to this marvelous journey. The adventure is about to begin. Please prepare yourselves."

Liu Yiyi pursed her lips, clinging to Su Yunzhou’s arm as they headed inside. The moment the main doors opened, a blast of cold air that smelled like an air conditioner washed over them. It was pitch-black before their eyes, and only after dozens of seconds of adjusting did the path forward gradually become visible.

Su Yunzhou honestly felt nothing toward these ghosts and ghouls; after all, in the past, he hadn’t even been afraid of being broke. He held Liu Yiyi’s slightly sweaty little hand, gripping it tightly to give her strength.

The two moved sluggishly through the darkness.

Suddenly, CLANG.

Accompanied by a shrill, bloodcurdling scream, a bloodstained hanging ghost with an elongated tongue dropped down from the ceiling.

"Ah!" Liu Yiyi shrieked, pulling Su Yunzhou forward at a run.

However, the moment they passed the corner, a flash of red light appeared in their vision. The iron bars of a room shook violently, as if some monster was about to break out. Amidst the creepy, bloody glow, a ferocious-looking werewolf was gnawing on a corpse whose internal organs had been hollowed out.

"Ah!

"So scary!

"I’m so scared!"

Liu Yiyi’s airy voice drifted from behind him.

Keeping his eyes forward, Su Yunzhou thought the props were fairly realistic. He turned his head and said, "Don’t be afraid, it’s all fake. Just follow me... AH!"

A pale, terrifying, fanged face abruptly materialized right in front of his eyes. It was at point-blank range; he could even feel the hot breath puffing from the fanged mouth. Those blood-red eyes held a teasing glint...

"Wait!

"That’s not how you play!"

His fist, which had swung down with full force, suddenly stopped in mid-air.

Su Yunzhou’s mouth twitched. Panting heavily, he looked at the "monster" in front of him that spoke with human words and instantly understood what had happened. "Liu Yiyi, have you ever heard the saying, ’People scaring people can scare people to death’?"

Looking at Su Yunzhou, who wore a serious expression but was clearly somewhat scared pale, Liu Yiyi took off the horrifying mask, her face revealing a triumphant, mischievous smile.

"GIGGLE."

"You’re still laughing?"

"Oh, come on! Don’t be mad!" Liu Yiyi hugged Su Yunzhou’s arm, swaying it side to side as she whined with utmost sincerity, "I was just joking around with you!"

Seeing her nuzzling and apologetic attitude, Su Yunzhou felt a bit better and accepted the apology. "How... how are you so brave?"

"Because I’ve never done anything to feel guilty about, so I’m not afraid of anything!" Liu Yiyi grabbed his hand and strode forward confidently.

Su Yunzhou was speechless.

Liu Yiyi added, "Hehe! Actually, I’ve been brave since I was a kid. I’m not afraid of these things at all..."

Su Yunzhou came to a realization. "Which means you said you wanted to play this Evil Spirit Castle just to scare me, right?"

"GIGGLE." The corners of Liu Yiyi’s lips curled up. "Let’s go! We’re off to the next ride."

After successfully clearing the Evil Spirit Castle, Liu Yiyi dragged a certain someone, who couldn’t stop checking his phone, to play a few more attractions. Time slipped away during these cheerful moments. Gradually, the sky turned completely dark.

As the beautiful lights of Joy Valley flickered on, the entire park seemed to take on an entirely different vibe. A romantic atmosphere drifted in the breeze, and the air itself carried the sweet scent of popcorn.

Su Yunzhou held Liu Yiyi’s hand as they strolled along the riverbank. Watching the streetlamps light up one by one, their shadows cast upon the bank, everything felt incredibly wonderful and heartwarming.

Without realizing it, the two arrived at a magnificent musical fountain illuminated by the lights.

Su Yunzhou glanced at his phone, gently stroked her forehead, and asked, "Do you want an ice cream cone?"

Liu Yiyi blinked her pretty almond eyes, her tone sweet and soft. "Yes, please! Sorry for making my little brother run an errand."

Su Yunzhou’s eyes rolled playfully. He leaned close to her ear and murmured, "Yiyi, you seem really obsessed with this older sister and younger brother roleplay lately. Do you want to go back and try it out tonight?"

"You’re so annoying."

The soft, warm breath in her ear, combined with his flirtatious tone, brought a beautiful crimson flush to Liu Yiyi’s cheeks.

"Wait just a moment, miss!" Su Yunzhou got up and headed to a nearby convenience store to buy the ice cream.

Smiling brightly, Liu Yiyi sat on the bench, watching his silhouette disappear into the store entrance. An indescribable sense of happiness swelled in her heart. "I’m so lucky to have met you. It’s truly wonderful," she thought.

A moment later.

Liu Yiyi stared at the convenience store, wondering to herself, "Why is it taking so long to buy an ice cream cone?"

Suddenly, someone wearing a Bugs Bunny mascot suit came rushing over in a hurry. "Princess! Princess Yiyi! I’ve finally found you!"

"Huh?!" Liu Yiyi tilted her head. "What?"

At this moment, the music playing from the fountain shifted into an upbeat dance track.

Looking frantic, Bugs Bunny said, "Princess Yiyi, we have to hurry. The ball is about to begin.

"The prince from the capital of romance has already arrived, and now everyone is waiting for your appearance..."
