68: Following work, the couple's first date
"Something came up, so I woke up earlier today."
Jiang Chuan heard Mu Qingcheng's voice, turned around, and looked at her peerless face. Every time, he was amazed. He said with a smile.
"Alright, I thought you wouldn't be able to come until the afternoon. I still have to work this morning, so I can't be with you."
Mu Qingcheng smiled bitterly. She had told Yang Mi that she needed to rest this afternoon, but the morning's work had to be completed.
"It's fine, you can go to work. I can accompany you to work too."
Jiang Chuan heard Mu Qingcheng's words and couldn't help but laugh as he said to her.
"Great! Sister Mi booked me a game endorsement today, and I need to shoot promotional photos. After the photoshoot, I'll have time in the afternoon. You can come with me then."
Mu Qingcheng smiled happily when she heard that Jiang Chuan was willing to accompany her to work.
"Mm."
Jiang Chuan just smiled and sat in Mu Qingcheng's office, intending to go with her to the shooting location later.
Half an hour later.
Sister Hong had everything ready and came to the office to find Mu Qingcheng.
"Little Jiang."
"Sister Hong."
Sister Hong also knew Jiang Chuan was in the office. The two greeted each other and left the office together to go to the promotional photoshoot location.
"Little Jiang, Qingcheng is going to work now. There are many interesting and unique shops nearby you can browse. When Qingcheng finishes work, I'll have her call you."
Jiang Chuan and his group arrived at a distinctive old district. The staff for the promotional photoshoot had already arrived, and Mu Qingcheng immediately got into work mode. Sister Hong said to Jiang Chuan with a light smile.
"Okay, Sister Hong."
Jiang Chuan heard Sister Hong's words and watched the photographer constantly having Mu Qingcheng strike different poses and change clothes for photos. He felt a bit bored and began to wander around the old district by himself.
The old district is quite famous in Modu; it preserves the heritage of old Modu culture.
Jiang Chuan wandered through the old district, looking at the buildings full of historical charm, as if he were in old Modu.
Jiang Chuan wandered alone for about an hour, buying a lot of food.
Durian and cranberry yogurt, coffee, and snacks, he returned to where Mu Qingcheng was shooting.
"Let's eat something together."
When Jiang Chuan returned, he saw that Mu Qingcheng's photoshoot had just finished. He walked over with the food and said to Mu Qingcheng and the others with a smile.
"Okay, I'm hungry right now."
Mu Qingcheng looked at the food Jiang Chuan brought over and, without any ceremony, immediately opened it and started eating. The other food was also distributed to the photoshoot staff by Sister Hong.
"Is the photoshoot finished?"
Jiang Chuan watched Mu Qingcheng finish her food, thoughtfully handed her a tissue, and asked with a smile.
"Not yet, I still need to shoot a few more sets of photos."
Mu Qingcheng wiped the crumbs from her lips, shook her head, and said to Jiang Chuan.
"Alright, I'm tired from walking too. I'll just stand nearby and wait for you to finish shooting."
Jiang Chuan heard Mu Qingcheng's words and decided not to continue wandering. He would wait for Mu Qingcheng to finish shooting, and then they would leave together.
"Okay."
Mu Qingcheng happily agreed.
After a simple lunch, Mu Qingcheng resumed her photoshoot.
This time, the shooting lasted for an hour and finally concluded.
"Sister Hong, I won't be returning to the company. When you go back, please tell Sister Mi. I'll treat Sister Mi and you all to a meal sometime."
After Mu Qingcheng's photoshoot ended, she stretched lazily and said to Sister Hong with a light smile.
"Okay, you two haven't seen each other for a while. Get some good rest this afternoon. But don't forget, tomorrow the game company will announce your endorsement, and you'll need to go to the game company for a live interaction with fans."
Sister Hong heard Mu Qingcheng's words and agreed with a smile, only reminding Mu Qingcheng that there was still work to be done and that it couldn't be too late today.
"Sister Hong, what are you saying?"
Mu Qingcheng heard Sister Hong's words and saw her winking at her, immediately understanding Sister Hong's meaning. In an instant, Mu Qingcheng's face flushed red, and she shyly lowered her head.
Jiang Chuan heard Sister Hong's words and saw Mu Qingcheng shyly lower her head. He also understood what Sister Hong meant and shook his head helplessly.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I'm leaving first."
Sister Hong looked at Mu Qingcheng's expression, smiled happily, and immediately returned to the company with the driver.
"Phew."
Mu Qingcheng also breathed a sigh of relief as she watched Sister Hong and the others leave.
"Old Jiang, where are we going?"
Mu Qingcheng now looked at Jiang Chuan with a somewhat shy gaze and asked.
"We've known each other for so many years, and this is the first time we're together as a couple. This is also considered our first date. How about we act like a normal couple, have dinner, and watch a movie?"
Jiang Chuan felt Mu Qingcheng's gaze and, for a moment, didn't know what to do, so he tentatively asked.
"Dinner can wait, I just finished eating."
"I heard a new escape room opened in Modu. I love playing them! How about we go play an escape room together?"
Mu Qingcheng clearly had an idea in mind, passed on Jiang Chuan's suggestion, and stated her own idea.
"Sure."
Jiang Chuan naturally wouldn't refuse and readily agreed with a smile.
Mu Qingcheng's driver left, and Jiang Chuan hadn't driven over, so the two hailed a taxi and arrived at Ghost Eighteen Escape Room.
"The two of us want to play 'Death Slaughterhouse.'"
Mu Qingcheng arrived at the escape room and immediately told the staff which room she wanted to play.
"Are you sure, customer? This escape room of ours is very terrifying."
The staff looked at Jiang Chuan's handsome appearance, like a pretty boy. Mu Qingcheng wore a mask, so her face was unclear, and they didn't think they had the guts to play the most terrifying 'Death Slaughterhouse.'
"Yes, that's the one."
Mu Qingcheng said this with great certainty.
She had been preparing for today for a long time, so naturally, she wouldn't back down.
The staff didn't say much and arranged for the two of them to play 'Death Slaughterhouse.'
"Ah ah ah ah!"
"Old Jiang, protect me!"
"Old Jiang, hurry and save me!"
"Wuwuwuwu..."
When Jiang Chuan and Mu Qingcheng entered the escape room, Mu Qingcheng was still very brave. But when the plot began, Mu Qingcheng screamed incessantly, and later on, she was even scared to tears.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Qingcheng, you're too weak! You actually cried from fright, are you trying to make me die laughing?"
"I remember you used to be very brave, why are you so timid today?"
When Jiang Chuan and Mu Qingcheng walked out of the escape room, Jiang Chuan mercilessly laughed loudly at the exhausted Mu Qingcheng.
"Shut up!"
Mu Qingcheng looked at Jiang Chuan's mocking face, glared fiercely at him, and growled.
Jiang Chuan felt Mu Qingcheng's murderous gaze and instantly shut up, though his mouth kept twitching, finding it hard to suppress his laughter.
