"What?" Erya looked at the staff member in disbelief. "Say that again!"
"I'm sorry, but because you are under 20 years old, you are not allowed to watch the male model show tonight." The staff member said with an apologetic smile. "All our performances here have age restrictions."
"I! You!" Erya puffed up her cheeks in anger, then turned back to Xia Qingtian unhappily and said, "Qingtian! Look at him!"
"It's no use looking at him," Xia Qingtian said with a helpless smile. "I'm also 19, and I can't get in either."
When Erya made that request, Xia Qingtian knew Erya would be disappointed.
After all, Erya was about the same age as Xia Qingyu, so it would be strange if she were allowed to watch such a performance.
However, Xia Qingtian thought that if she pointed this out directly, Erya might come up with some strange tricks or say more bizarre things, so Xia Qingtian chose to remain silent.
When they were directly rejected by the staff, Erya should calm down.
"Hmph!" Erya stomped her feet in anger.
She had been looking forward to it all afternoon!
"Are there any performances or other projects she can visit?" Xia Qingtian raised her hand to pat Erya's head and then asked the staff member.
"KTV, spa, and various beauty and skincare treatments are available. Additionally, we have an art exhibition open to the public today, as well as the mirror maze, which is very popular with children. Today is the last day." The staff member introduced.
"How about we take you for some skincare treatments and then see the exhibition?" Xia Qingtian looked at Erya and said, "You haven't played in a mirror maze before, have you?"
"Didn't you hear him say it's a project that only children like? I'm an adult!" Erya said this, but when Xia Qingtian coaxed and pushed her into the mirror maze, Erya let out cheers even more lively than a group of children.
"Wow! So magical! This is me! That one is also me!" Erya looked around, seeing the mirrors everywhere, and once she was deep in it, she couldn't tell which one was the real her. "Qingtian! Look!"
"Mm," Xia Qingtian responded and said, "Be careful, there are two paths here. How about you go down the left path and we go down the right path?"
"Okay, okay! I'm going down the left path with Xia Shang~" Erya said, dragging Xia Shang to the left. "Erya, slow down, a little slower."
Watching the excited Erya, Xia Qingtian just smiled and walked down the right path with Mr. Gu.
"Erya's personality is very lively, although sometimes she's not serious," Xia Qingtian chatted with Mr. Gu with a slight smile.
"I can see that." Mr. Gu recalled Yue Cheng Dong's gaze and gave a helpless wry smile. He had suffered greatly from it.
"After taking Erya out tonight, we'll be heading back to Z City tomorrow. Although some things happened, overall it was quite happy." Xia Qingtian looked at Mr. Gu. "Mr. Gu, you..."
"When it's just the two of us, you can call me by my name."
"Gu... Yaoyang?" Xia Qingtian blinked.
"Mm," Gu Yaoyang responded, then turned his head to look around and said, "It's indeed difficult to navigate here. I hope Erya and Xia Shang don't get lost."
"It shouldn't be that bad," Xia Qingtian smiled. After all, there were signs at the top, as long as they didn't mistake them due to mirror reflections.
"What's Erya's full name?" Gu Yaoyang asked casually. "She's not really called Erya, is she?"
"This..." Xia Qingtian hesitated, then beckoned. When Gu Yaoyang leaned closer, she whispered in a voice only they could hear, "This seems to be a secret. Don't tell anyone, her name is Tang Youli."
"!" Gu Yaoyang was stunned upon hearing the name. He looked at Xia Qingtian in shock. "You mean she is Tang Youli, the hidden master of the Tang family!"
"Tang family... what master?" Xia Qingtian looked at Gu Yaoyang blankly.
Just as Gu Yaoyang was about to speak, he saw a man covered in oil and shimmering glitter, with only a few pieces of cloth covering his private parts, looking sinisterly around from a mirror at a certain angle behind Xia Qingtian. The man then turned and walked away, his oiled buttocks reflecting the light.
It was an eyesore.
Gu Yaoyang abruptly closed his eyes tightly and took a sharp breath.
"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Xia Qingtian asked immediately.
"No, I saw something dirty." Gu Yaoyang took Xia Qingtian's arm and led her back. "Let's go find Tang... let's go find Erya and Xia Shang."
"Huh? What's wrong?" Xia Qingtian was still a little confused.
"It looks like a killer has infiltrated. Although I don't know... why he's dressed like that..." Gu Yaoyang's expression was somewhat subtle.
The killers nowadays are getting more and more audacious and bold.
But at least they should pay attention to their public image!
It's just... ridiculous!
The killer was also feeling wronged and annoyed.
It was a last-minute job. He was told that the target would come to Goukan Fengqing Tower to watch the male model show.
He had temporarily knocked out a male model who was about to go on stage, then applied oil and glitter to himself. He planned to interact with the target during the show and kill him discreetly before escaping.
With the noisy environment and excited audience, as long as the performance was explosive, no one would notice the target who had died in his seat.
But he never expected that even after he went on stage, he couldn't find the target he was supposed to eliminate tonight. Instead, he was taken advantage of by excited old wealthy women.
He might need a lifetime to heal from these three minutes of performance...
He... was no longer clean.
What was most hateful was that after the show, he was already physically and mentally traumatized and suppressed to the point of vomiting, only to be informed that the target was not watching the male model show but had gone to the mirror maze.
Wasn't that funny? Coming to Goukan Fengqing Tower and not watching the famous male model show, but going to play in the mirror maze?
But it was good this way. The mirror maze had very few customers at night. According to the information provided by the client, the mirror maze was now only hosting the target and his party.
As long as he acted quickly, he could leave before being discovered.
The client had also arranged for the surveillance in the mirror maze to be shut down.
He had 10 minutes to kill and escape.
So, every minute and every second was extremely tense.
He had to be careful, very careful.
"Hey, are you an NPC in the mirror maze?" Erya saw the person in the mirror but couldn't tell where he was, so she could only ask, "Are the NPCs for children's attractions... this... R-rated?"
"Don't look," Xia Shang's mouth twitched. His already strange face became even more sinister. He raised his hand to cover Erya's face and whispered, "You'll have nightmares."
Receiving such a comment, the killer became enraged.
Although these two were not his targets, they must be accomplices of the target, Xia Qingtian.
Since that was the case, he would just silence them.
That way, they wouldn't make a fuss and attract others.
With this thought, the killer's eyes became more and more fierce, and he approached Xia Shang and Erya step by step.
