131: Oh no, it's the feeling of falling in love!

Li Zhou, who was already in bed preparing to rest, suddenly received a message from Goethe.

His eyebrows raised when he heard Song Yang had returned.

Why did this kid think of coming back?

Isn't the livestream room still unblocked?

Shaking his head, he didn't think about it anymore.

The front door of the Haunted House was usually locked by Xiao Lu. At this time, it shouldn't be truly closed yet.

That guy Song Yang wasn't unfamiliar with the Haunted House; he could find his dormitory himself.

He decided not to go see the two of them. He would talk to them tomorrow.

Li Zhou, who was about to lie down and scroll through TikTok before sleeping, suddenly heard Goethe's voice in his mind again.

Because he had control over the castle's permissions, he and Goethe could communicate directly through their thoughts.

"Boss, Red Spirit took your friend to the maze."

Hearing Goethe's words, Li Zhou instinctively felt sorry for Song Yang.

But very quickly, he sat up, his brows slightly furrowed.

That's not right.

Logically, Red Spirit knew Song Yang.

Why would she suddenly take him to the maze?

Did Song Yang offend her somewhere before?

That's not right either; they've never even met, have they?

"Is she acting on her own again?"

He muttered to himself, a hint of seriousness flashing across Li Zhou's face.

She knew Song Yang had no ill intentions and that he had lived in the Haunted House before.

Now that he was back, she took him to the maze.

This was problematic.

He didn't like employees who did whatever they wanted, especially scary employees.

Just as he was about to get out of bed, Li Zhou suddenly heard Goethe speak again, "Boss, Red Spirit said that if that person you asked me to watch entered the castle, I should let her in."

"I didn't agree."

"So she's unhappy about that and wants to take it out on Song Yang?"

"That won't do!"

"I already told her to rein in her temper."

"Song Yang isn't a player; he's half an employee. As a colleague, how can she treat him like that?"

Li Zhou shook his head, still preparing to go over and see.

However, the next moment, his movements paused.

"Boss, your friend said he's your partner."

Partner?

Him?

Hearing Goethe's last sentence, Li Zhou retracted the foot he had already extended.

Red Spirit did well.

People who like to brag should suffer a little.

On the other side, Song Yang still didn't know that a boastful remark he made in front of a beautiful woman was about to make him experience long-lost fear again.

Led by Red Spirit, he and his assistant walked step by step towards the depths of the Haunted House.

"Hmm?"

"It's so late, isn't the boss resting yet?"

Seeing that the path Red Spirit was taking was not towards Li Zhou's room, Song Yang asked curiously.

Logically, at this hour, the boss should be lying in bed, like a dead otaku, scrolling through TikTok.

Why was he still wandering outside?

"Don't rush, we'll be there soon."

Hearing Song Yang's words, Red Spirit turned her head, revealing a beautiful profile.

Her red lips curved slightly, and she said in a charming voice.

"No rush!"

"Haha, I'm not rushing!"

Hearing Red Spirit's voice, Song Yang felt as if his soul had been purified.

Smiling foolishly, he waved his hand.

Behind him, the assistant covered his forehead, looking at Song Yang acting like a lovesick pig.

His Brother Yang was good in every way, except for one thing.

This guy wasn't interested in ordinary beauties.

He... was a voice control enthusiast!

"By the way, beautiful, when did you come to the Haunted House?"

"Not long ago, I work here too!"

After holding back all the way, Song Yang finally couldn't resist and started asking her other questions.

At the same time, he also began to look forward to his future life.

The boss recruited this employee well!

How wonderful would it be to wake up every day and see such a beauty, hearing that charming good morning?

Thinking of this, Song Yang's smile grew even wider.

Red Spirit's smile also grew wider.

At the same time, wisps of black mist began to swirl in the corners of her eyes.

However, she hid this very well.

Venting was one thing, but she hadn't forgotten Li Zhou's instructions.

Song Yang would be a permanent resident of the Haunted House in the future, so she couldn't expose her true identity in front of him.

"I was hired by the boss a while ago."

To avoid arousing Song Yang's suspicion, Red Spirit could only answer every question.

The two chatted all the way and soon arrived in front of the maze made up of mirrors of various sizes.

Song Yang had now completely forgotten his previous unease.

He didn't even notice the countless goosebumps that had unknowingly appeared on his body.

Looking at Red Spirit in front of him, he was about to ask something else when Red Spirit suddenly turned around.

Above the heads of the three, a human skin lantern emitted a faint red glow.

A blush appeared on Red Spirit's face, and shyness flickered in her eyes.

Coupled with the red light of the lantern shining on her face, she looked even more enchanting.

Song Yang immediately froze on the spot.

"Um, I want to go to the restroom."

"Can you... wait for me?"

Red Spirit fluttered her eyelashes, looking at Song Yang, and said very apologetically.

Hearing her words, Song Yang quickly returned to normal and nodded, "Of course."

"I'm not in a hurry!"

He hadn't planned to look for Li Zhou tonight anyway.

Whatever it was, it wasn't too late to talk about it tomorrow.

"Alright then, thank you, big brother."

Hearing Song Yang agree, Red Spirit's lips curved into a strange smile.

However, Song Yang was completely immersed in Red Spirit's 'big brother,' and his expression, which had just recovered, instantly broke again.

Oh no, it's the feeling of being smitten!

With a simple smile, Song Yang scratched his head, momentarily at a loss for words.

Red Spirit looked at his dazed appearance and covered her mouth with a chuckle.

Then, she turned and walked towards the other side, quickly disappearing into the darkness.

"Huh, isn't the restroom over here?"

Behind Song Yang, the assistant looked at the direction Red Spirit left and was momentarily stunned.

He was also very familiar with the layout of the Haunted House.

He remembered that the restroom wasn't over there!

Did the boss install a new restroom nearby?

It didn't seem impossible.

Given the fright level of the Haunted House, the probability of players peeing their pants was very high.

It was perfectly reasonable to have more restrooms!

The assistant shook his head, not thinking much of it.

He withdrew his gaze and looked at the maze in front of him, a hint of memory flashing in his eyes.

He remembered that he and Brother Yang were caught by that guy Goethe right here.

Goodness, he remembered he almost died of fright back then.

He didn't understand why those players would come to such a place.

Isn't this just pure self-inflicted suffering?

The assistant wasn't very keen on horror adventures.

In fact, if he weren't Song Yang's assistant, he probably would never go to escape rooms or Haunted Houses in his life.

"Brother Yang, it's so late, what are you looking for the boss for?"

Seeing the atmosphere was a bit dull, the assistant took the initiative to speak.

But as soon as he finished speaking, before Song Yang could reply, he suddenly froze.

"Hey, Brother Yang, what's that?!"
