91: Chapter 91: With Alarm but No Danger 91: Chapter 91: With Alarm but No Danger At this moment, Ye Shikai’s brain was frantically spinning, imagining all sorts of possibilities.
No way, he didn’t expect that even bungee jumping could encounter such an incident; how unlucky could he be?
Ye Shikai had no intention of looking at Su Qingyu’s current expression.
He stared intently at the gap on the rope.
If the rope broke, both of them would definitely drop into the water below.
Although it was water, at this height, plummeting straight into the water would certainly be fatal due to the resistance of the water surface.
Although he could use his Inner Strength to protect them both, it was still inevitable that Su Qingyu might get injured.
More importantly, it would cause excessive fright.
Of course, he could also activate his Inner Strength and fly up like Qinggong, but that would definitely make the news.
How would he explain it then?
Ye Shikai stared at the gap, not daring to blink.
When the two reached the lowest point, which was when the rope was under the most strain, it was very likely to break.
Almost in the blink of an eye, they reached the lowest point.
At that moment, the rope made a “hissing” sound.
Indeed, the rope was about to break.
It was too late when it happened quickly, Ye Shikai activated his Inner Strength, and the two of them seemingly paused in mid-air for a moment.
Taking advantage of this instant, Ye Shikai reached out with his right hand, tightly grabbing the upper part of the rope at the gap, his left hand tightly holding Su Qingyu in his arms.
“Stop right there,” Ye Shikai silently commanded in his heart, his right hand clinging tightly to the rope.
It’s fortunate that he was a cultivator, otherwise, with such speed and the weight of two people, this kind of inertia would not be bearable by an ordinary person.
Had he been a normal person, probably his arm would have been ripped right off.
Even so, Ye Shikai’s right hand still felt a surge of pain.
The staff on the platform seemed to realize something was wrong too.
Holding binoculars, they looked at the two people under the rope.
This scene would probably be unforgettable for them.
This man, surprisingly holding the rope with just one hand, and that safety rope, actually broke.
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the staff immediately dropped another safety rope, with a loop at the bottom to secure a person.
Just in case, several emergency speedboats on the water surface were promptly called to the scene.
Ye Shikai secured the new safety rope and used the loop to secure Su Qingyu.
He then breathed a sigh of relief.
The rest was just waiting for the people above to slowly pull him up, and the closed-eyed Su Qingyu, completely unaware of what had just transpired, saw this, Ye Shikai smiled relievedly.
A few minutes later, the two finally returned to the platform.
Unlike when they had descended, the platform was now surrounded by a large crowd, including staff, paramedics, and some managers.
“Is it over?” Feeling the solid ground under her feet, Su Qingyu slowly opened her eyes and looked around at the large crowd of people, somewhat surprised, “Who are they?
Why are there so many people?” asked Su Qingyu.
“Uh, nothing much, probably here to group bungee jump,” Ye Shikai found an excuse and shrugged it off.
Since Su Qingyu wasn’t frightened, it was better not to let her know.
“Qingyu, was it thrilling just now?
Were you scared?” Ye Shikai asked while driving.
“Uh, it was okay,” Su Qingyu’s face showed a trace of fear.
Ye Shikai silently commented: With your eyes closed the whole time, of course, you weren’t scared…
“Are you hungry, or shall we go to a movie first?” Ye Shikai pulled up outside a mall, looking at Su Qingyu in the passenger seat.
“I’m not hungry yet, let’s go watch a movie first.”
The two walked to the cinema, with 20 minutes left until the start.
Looking at the movie tickets in hand, today was Chinese Valentine’s Day, and this was a popular romance film, likely to be packed.
However, Ye Shikai only saw a bunch of people gathered around the ticket booth looking upset, seemingly complaining.
“Damn, no seats left.” one man said.
“Yeah, all the tickets for this show are sold out.
Is this a mistake?” another person complained.
Seeing this, Ye Shikai had a vague premonition…
Twenty minutes later, in the huge VIP cinema hall, there was not a single person.
The two arrived at their seats in shock just then a text message arrived on Ye Shikai’s phone.
“Brother-in-law, how about it, movie hall booked, I treat you well, right?” The message ended with a smiley face, unmistakably sent by Su Ziqing, that girl.
He hadn’t expected her to book the entire cinema hall.
No way, she has the money after all.
“Must be Qingqing’s doing, right?” Su Qingyu smiled, sighing softly.
“Yeah, that little girl.” Ye Shikai put his phone back in his pocket, since Su Ziqing had gone to such lengths, he didn’t want to waste her kindness.
Romantic movies are meant to be felt with fewer people, and now it was just the two of them…
The movie started, telling the story of an ordinary young man and a female CEO who, through a mix of mistakes, ended up together.
During the process, the young man met many women and developed some feelings.
Seeing this plot, both of them smiled knowingly; the storyline resembled their real-life situation.
Finally, after much tribulation, the young man and the woman ended up together, the woman gave up her career, and they bought a small estate in Provence, France, living their life there.
At the end of the movie, the leads embraced in a sea of lavender.
As the cinema hall’s lights brightened, the two slowly came to their senses.
“Qingyu, did you find the movie good?”
“Not bad,” Su Qingyu said lightly, seemingly still engrossed in the plot.
In the restaurant, the two were having hotpot.
“Qingyu, why are you so distracted?” Ye Shikai noticed Su Qingyu was somewhat absent-minded and hurriedly asked.
“It’s nothing, just thinking about the movie.”
“It’s quite like us, right?” Ye Shikai hit the nail on the head, looking at Su Qingyu’s surprised expression, indeed she was thinking about that.
“Yeah,” Su Qingyu nodded, seeming a bit uneasy, pausing between words, “Do you think we will end up like in the movie?”
