After Turning Down the Proposal, The Whole World Waits For Me to Remarry - Chapter 28

Shirley felt a little strange, but she did as Yuna said. After fumbling around her pockets for a while, she looked very shocked as she took out a key from her pocket.

“When… did they put it in?” Shirley was a little startled.

“It should be when they were touching you,” Yuna said, but her actions did not stop. She used the key to open the hidden door, and behind the door was darkness.

“Senior, I…” Shirley was already amazed by Yuna’s actions. As she saw that it was another very suspicious passage this time, she shrank back a little..

She knew she was wrong, and she shouldn’t have put up a brave front.

Yuna was very understanding as she said, “I’ll walk in front. You could hold onto the hem of my clothes.”

Hence, the two of them stooped down and entered the door. However, the corridor behind the door was quite spacious. One could see clearly that the lights were hanging on the wall, flashing with orange light.

Their fear would reduce once they could see clearly, right? They thought so. But Yuna was still worried about Shirley.

At this moment, the sinister laughter of children came from behind them suddenly. The earlier nursery rhyme sounded again, and the sound of dense footsteps even accompanied it.

Shirley had not even turned her head to look when she was surprised to find that at least seven out of ten lights in this corridor had been extinguished. It became dark and gloomy immediately.

It was not until Yuna tugged at Shirley and reminded her, “Run!”

Shirley realized that a group of big-headed dolls standing behind them were evilly approaching them.

The chase behind them was not enough. When the two ran to escape, hands stretched out from the side to stop them. There was even a strange figure with a big head that floated past their eyes.

Yuna finally understood why the host emphasized the word ‘first.’ The way to play this Corridor of Horror was not to solve the mystery, but to race!

When the two of them passed through the layers of obstacles and arrived in front of another wooden door, Shirley pushed the door open without hesitation and led Yuna to hide inside.

At this moment, Shirley’s face was deathly pale and her initially fluffy bangs drenched in sweat. When she saw the words ‘Safe House’ written on the signboard in the room, she sat on the floor and panted.

On the other hand, Yuna was in a thin layer of sweat, she looked very calm, she noticed that perhaps it was because she was not scared, but Shirley could not help but be afraid. In the end, the staff gave up on her. Instead, they turned all their firepower to tease Shirley.

With a sense of guilt towards Shirley, Yuna squatted down and patted Shirley’s back. She comforted her, “It’s alright. It’s all a disguise by the staff.”

“I couldn’t help it. My reaction was carved in my DNA. I subconsciously want to run away,” Shirley said breathlessly with a helpless expression.

Inside the Safe House, other than two electronic screens, it was empty.

The electronic screen on the left showed Joey and Willy looking around. The path of these two was the classic “Red Wedding Dress” theme. There were bright red festive decorations everywhere. Under the lighting, it looked even more eerie and terrifying.

Joey was scared to tears, while Willy held her hand tightly and led her forward.

On the other side of the electronic screen, it was naturally the scene of Chloe and John. It was a hospital theme. However, the posture of the two was a little strange, John held onto Chloe’s shoulders, and Chloe’s entire head hid under John’s clothes. They ran like crazy. Halfway through, John carried Chloe and continued to run as if he was risking his life.

Even Shirley, who had been quite frightened earlier, could not help but ridicule when she saw the images of John and Chloe. “No Way, he’s going all out?”

To win the game, John actually carried Chloe and ran. He was willing to risk it all.

Yuna had her conclusion after studying the images on the two electronic screens. Seeing that Shirley had sufficient rest, she said, “Willy’s team should still be in the exploring stage. John’s team has already reached the escaping stage, and they’re not far behind us.”

Shirley immediately stood up. “Then we’re currently number one, come on, let’s go!”

Shirley, who was already used to the program team’s method of scaring people, seemed to be more accustomed to the upcoming challenges. On the other hand, Yuna did not seem to be afraid at all from the beginning to the end. Her expression was very calm. On the contrary, she had the leisure to study the headgear of the staff.
