Chapter 7 - 7 006 City of Romantic Encounters

Chapter 7: 006: City of Romantic Encounters Chapter 7: 006: City of Romantic Encounters Wen Changling discarded the original travel guide, it was obvious that Xie Shang had been to Lileitu before. He was very familiar with the place and even spoke the local language.

The next day, she and Xie Shang went skydiving. The wind was so loud in the helicopter that she couldn’t hear what Xie Shang was saying.

He moved behind her, close to her.

“The noise is too loud, not suitable for wearing a hearing aid.”

Then he was the first to jump out of the helicopter.

Wen Changling removed her hearing aid, accompanied by an instructor, and also jumped down. Without the hearing aid, at three thousand meters high, she could only hear a faint buzzing sound. The fierce wind made her skin hurt, and that pain, along with the violent heartbeat and rapid breathing, made every cell feel the exhilaration of a narrow escape.

In the afternoon, they went to the Underwater World of Lileitu, which was different from the underwater worlds back home, not suitable for children. This was a place for adults to revel.

The Underwater World of Lileitu hosted a crazy survival game—Deep Sea Escape. Participants had to sign a life-or-death agreement. The organizer would provide an oxygen tank that could last for fifteen minutes underwater, then bind the contestant’s hands and feet and lock them in an underwater chamber.

If you managed to escape, you could win five million in Lai currency and get rich overnight. Of course, you could give up at any moment.

What a crazy game.

From the moment one entered, exclamations from all around never ceased, it was Wen Changling’s first time at such a place. Looking around, the stands were full of people of all genders and skin colors, with the sea surface currently very calm.

“Will anyone actually play?”

This was gambling with one’s life.

Even though you could give up, the Underwater World was infinitely changeable.

“Yes,” Xie Shang took Wen Changling to a front row seat, “Those who go down are all gamblers. Faced with huge monetary temptation, many are ready to risk their lives, with very few actually giving up.”

He seemed to understand the survival rules here very well.

“Wait for me here.”

Wen Changling was surprised, her gaze following him intently, showing her anxiety, “You’re going to participate?”
