Song Yan simply acted as if she could not hear a word which came out of Assistant Geng's mouth and then walked over to the edge of the room where the wall had parted to reveal the black sky and the whistling winds which made her locks flutter.
However before she could take another step close to the opening, her arm was caught and she was pulled back.
" What are you doing?" Fu Yu Sheng had seen many things but he still did not believe that anyone would be fine if they were to step out of a big opening which was big enough for a truck to drive past it and not plummet to the ground from the top floor of a building. " Where are you going?"
Only then did Song Yan remember that Fu Yu Sheng did not know how this place functioned. She turned to look at him and then patted him on his shoulder before saying, "It's all right, this nothing but a mirage."
" Thats right, Master Fu," Assistant Geng pointed to the dark sky and the whistling winds which looked hyper-realistic and explained, " Master Chenyi does not like it when people whom he does not wish to see barge inside his room, this is nothing but a small mirage to help him avoid those unwanted meetings. Those who have the permission of Master Chenyi can conveniently use this exit."
" And those who don't?" Fu Yu Sheng asked Assistant Geng with a narrowed pair of eyes that were filled with suspicions. Though he did not say it outright, one could see that he had the least amount of trust in Gu Chenyi.
Assistant Geng smiled at his question and calmly replied, "Then they will fall to death for interfering with his rest."
This was also the reason why Shen Yu despite being arrogant as ever had to stand outside and ask for Gu Chenyi's permission to enter his realm. If this mirage was not here to stop her then Shen Yu would have barged right inside the office without any care but because she feared the power and arrays which Master Chenyi had placed inside of this office, Shen Yu did not dare to act recklessly.
' What a sadistic man,' Fu Yu Sheng muttered in his head as he looked at the mirage.
He could even imagine how the conversation between those who died after falling to death from this place and the guards in the underworld went.
" Oh how you died?"
" I was sent plummeting to the ground because I disturbed the rest of a certain man."
A shiver danced down his spine as he hugged Song Yan's arm and carefully approached the opening in the wall, from where he stood he could see cars driving past the Gu building as well as the city lights and shimmering moon. This was a mirage? How was this a mirage?
It looked too real to be one.
" Is there no other——" option, was what Fu Yu Sheng wanted to say but Assistant Geng who stood behind him smirked and said, " I am afraid not." And then before Fu Yu Sheng could comprehend what he was doing the man pushed him from behind!
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm Fu Yu Sheng felt his footing loosen on the floor as his eyes widened before his lips parted and he screamed, " AHHHHHH!"
" You are screaming too loud what is the matter?" A voice stopped Fu Yu Sheng to scream as he plopped on the carpeted floor beside him, his wife stepped down from the roof of the cave which seemed to be made of some otherworldly material as it parted and allowed Song Yan to step inside gracefully.
Fu Yu Sheng was still out of it as he shivered and trembled while his heart thumped inside of his chest. Just now he was sure that Assistant Geng pushed him off the top floor of the building but now he was sitting on the surface of the cave?
" Are you all right?" Song Yan looked at her shaken-up husband and glared at Assistant Geng who came after them. The latter had the fair share of guilt to touch his nose awkwardly.
Fu Yu Sheng raised his head and looked at Song Yan before shaking his head and replying, " I feel like my heart is going to explode."
" Oh dear, that startled you?" Song Yan crouched down and patted Fu Yu Sheng on the back like a child who needed coaxing.
Gu Chenyi: "…." Sure, do all the PDA you want just remember that I am single!
" Ahem!" Gu Chenyi was speechless but he still cleared his throat and asked, "What is the matter?"
" You should ask Assistant Geng about this," Song Yan helped her husband from the ground once he was looking calm. " He just pushed my husband from the top floor when he was unprepared. Your assistant is lucky that my husband's guts and heart are strong or else I would have strung him up by his own lest he made me a widow at such a young age."
" Assistant Geng?" Gu Chenyi turned to look at his assistant, he was well aware of Assistant Geng's habit of playing pranks on others but he had scolded his assistant not to do the same to commoners as they were not used to something like this.
Assistant Geng raised his hands in surrender and said, " I did not think that he will be this scared."
" Then what did you think? I will do the conga in midair after being pushed from the top floor?" Fu Yu Sheng patted his chest as he turned to glare at Assistant Geng with blame in his eyes. Just now he really thought he was going to die!
" I apologize for his actions," Gu Chenyi glared at Assistant Geng before saying, " for his brash action, I will punish him accordingly."
" How? By sending him to another haunted island?" Fu Yu Sheng questioned looking quite upset, he couldn't be blamed for it though, just now his life flashed before his eyes! Song Yan was indeed correct if he was any less of a coward than this, he would have died!
" No, I will send him to an orphanage," Gu Chenyi smiled while Assistant Geng went pale. " Since he likes playing pranks so much, I think he will adore playing with kids as well."
