Chapter 634: Lanchi and Talia's Mutual Torment
Chapter 634: Lanchi and Talia's Mutual Torment
Below the stage of the limited-time event at the Love Obstacle Corridor Academy, in the central courtyard of the Golden Bee Amusement Park, the gathered audience buzzed with excitement and chatter.
Only Mr. Cat knew how uncomfortable Lanchi felt at that moment.
He really wanted to cry.
When it came to professionalism, Mr. Cat admired Lanchi.
For the sake of completing a job, Lanchi would sacrifice himself without hesitation.
He was truly a ruthless mercenary.
As the noise from the real world continued, the colorful graffiti space in the video feed, with its unconventional shifts between ground and sky, persisted in producing strange light effects and game sound effects.
Lanchi and Talia stood in this classroom like two time-travelers, facing the cartoon little bee host floating in the distance.
"Since you've both chosen to continue, let's move on to the next question!"
The host drew a card, flipped it, and revealed the new question.
Question 5 (Male): When you're apart from her, how many times a day do you think about her?
A. 0 times
B. 1-10 times
C. 10-100 times
D. More than 100 times
"If the answer is A, it means he doesn't love her at all. B is acceptable, but C is a bit exaggerated—it means he can't live without her."
The audience murmured their opinions.
Talia was initially uninterested in this question.
But then she wondered if Lanchi had thought about her at all during his time in the Northern Continent.
D
Lanchi's small blackboard boldly displayed his answer.
Talia looked at him with surprise, a hint of red creeping onto her face.
But the next second, she realized the truth and clenched her fists.
Every time Lanchi thought about her, it must have been because of something awful.
Who in their right mind would think about someone else over a hundred times a day?!
Lanchi's forehead was still beaded with sweat, and the louder the crowd below cheered, the longer each second felt to him.
"I really underestimated you two. You're disgustingly lovey-dovey."
Even the host found it hard to believe, commenting,
"I never expected someone as cool as you to be so attached to her."
At that moment, the only thought in the host's mind was an ancient vow: "Let mountains crumble and oceans dry up before I part from you."
"..."
Lanchi's eyelids twitched uncontrollably.
On one side, he felt the intangible pressure emanating from Talia beside him, and on the other, the raucous cheers from the audience made him feel like dying.
"Congratulations! You've already bravely answered five questions. Do you want to continue the challenge, or would you like to receive a commemorative gift box and twenty-five gold bee coins and leave now?"
The golden little bee host asked.
"Continue," Lanchi gritted out through clenched teeth.
He was already at rock bottom, so any step forward was upward.
Loran most likely still hadn't realized the danger of this game. With the audience in an uproar, he had to keep going a little longer.
A hero couldn't flee from the battlefield.
"Continue," Talia said calmly, giving her answer as well.
"Great! You two truly trust each other a lot! Let's move on to the next question!"
The host drew the next question with a smile.
Immediately, the cartoon little bee's face lit up with a bright smile.
This question would reveal the woman's deepest, secret desire.
Previously, there had been couples who broke up on the spot because of this very question, scaring the man away.
Question 6 (Female): If he could only grant one request from you, what would you want to do with him?
A brand-new banner appeared in the graffiti space.
Talia paused for a moment, and her answer appeared on the small blackboard in her hand.
Read the script
In that instant, Talia noticed Lanchi's temples twitching.
Lanchi seemed to be racking his brains in this instant, trying to think of all the sad things in his life, holding back and keeping his expression neutral.
Talia felt a bit like killing herself at this point.
To be honest, she didn't know why her answer turned out this way.
But perhaps, deep down, she really enjoyed the strange game she played with Lanchi—both torturous and exhilarating.
"Ta, Tata, let's stop now."
Lanchi sounded a bit out of breath, or perhaps he was laughing so hard that he couldn't speak anymore.
He felt that even if he died today, it would be worth the price of admission.
"..."
Talia's eyes trembled, and a hint of crimson crept onto her fair cheeks, her features gradually taking on a resolute aura.
She slowly moved closer to Lanchi.
"No, let's see this through. Today, let's torture each other to our hearts' content."
Talia placed her icy hand on the back of Lanchi's neck and gently whispered in his ear.
Lanchi turned his head in astonishment, feeling like a little cat that Talia could pick up at any moment, not daring to laugh anymore.
Only at this moment did he seem to see a demon queen before him.
As the two of them gazed at each other, without even looking back at the host, they heard the host's voice.
"Okay, let's move on to the seventh question—"
[Seventh Question (Male & Female): What is the most embarrassing thing between the two of you?]
The moment the banner appeared in their peripheral vision, they both suddenly realized and tried to rein in their thoughts.
But it was too late.
[Cute enough to eat you up]
[Cute enough to eat you up]
The answers appeared boldly on their little blackboards.
"Oh my!"
The entire arena fell silent as the answers were revealed, as if even the air had frozen. Then, in the instant the last character appeared on the small blackboards, the central courtyard erupted with deafening cheers.
Some players covered their mouths in surprise, while others wore expressions of shock and excitement, their eyes glued to the center of the screen.
Even though the audience below the stage didn't understand the specifics of this embarrassing incident or what had transpired, they could feel through the screen just how playful these two were being!
As if on cue, the director switched the background music to a new song that had recently become popular in Ikerite.
"My dear, you're so adorable today, so adorable that I want to eat you up instead of breakfast~"
"Your adorable appearance has me utterly captivated. Before my memories fade, I want to be by your side like a lucid dream forever~"
"Oh~ I feel like I'm suffocating, and yet you are the air, I can't wait any longer~"
As the familiar coquettish and clear voice rang out, Lanchi dared not turn his head to look at Tata.
Tata remained silent, not even questioning Lanchi on the spot.
Beads of sweat formed on Lanchi's forehead, and he stood there, motionless.
At this moment, they both wished they could die.
"Congratulations on answering seven questions! We'll have a short commercial break, and we've also received a message from the director that we need to make a shift change. If you two would like to continue, please wait for a moment."
The host said.
Earlier, when he heard the gray-haired girl say that she wanted to play until the end, if neither party objected, it would be assumed that they would continue.
...
Outside the Graffiti Classroom Shadow World.
The screen temporarily switched to commercials with the music playing in the background, but the audience in the central courtyard remained, eagerly anticipating the latter half of the show.
"Loran, this show is really interesting. No wonder everyone is looking forward to watching it."
Julianna commented.
She and Loran had now found seats across the stage in the audience and were comfortably watching this reality show.
"Yes, I think it's pretty good too."
Loran laughed heartily.
Although if it were him and Julianna being questioned, it might be a little awkward, but overall, they would be able to get through the challenge without being as flustered as the gentleman on stage.
