The four of them took a cab to the hotel to drop off their bags. Gu Kaifeng had booked the rooms; he originally intended to book one lovers’ suite and one standard room, but Lin Feiran had been there at the time, and with a heart set on revenge, Lin Feiran had made Gu Kaifeng change the standard room to a lovers’ suite too.

Before he and Gu Kaifeng got together, Wang Zhuo had teased them every day, so Lin Feiran wanted to make Wang Zhuo experience that terrible feeling too! But now...

Not only might Wang Zhuo not be embarrassed, he might even be pleased!

The four arrived at the hotel and went up to their rooms. Upon entering the room Lin Feiran first looked around with the Yin-Yang eyes, and discovered no long-term resident ghosts. Only then did he lie down, reassured, on the red heart-shaped two-person bed and start making out with Gu Kaifeng.

The two rested for a while, changed into fresh clothes, then went out to eat famous local food. After dinner, they walked around and bought some fruit, then went back to the hotel to rest.

The itinerary Gu Kaifeng had prepared was mountain-climbing tomorrow, then a holiday by the beach the day after. Because mountain-climbing was strenuous it was better to do it at the beginning of the vacation when everyone’s energy levels were high; if it were arranged later, everyone might be too tired to go. Even though they planned to do things separately from Wang Zhuo and the others, the others also wanted to mountain-climb first, so they were very likely to meet the next day,

Gu Kaifeng carried two big bags of fruit and waited with Lin Feiran on the first floor for the elevator. Just then, Wang Zhuo and He Hao also happened to return to the hotel.

On He Hao’s wrist hung a bag of tropical fruit, a big jackfruit in his hands. Wang Zhuo was drinking coconut juice out of a coconut through a straw. He looked up and saw them, and waved to Lin Feiran who was also holding a coconut and drinking juice: “Yo, sister-in-law likes this too?”

Lin Feiran looked at the delicate flower crown on Wang Zhuo’s head with a complicated feeling. “...Mm.”

Gu Kaifeng, who was also responsible for carrying the fruit, met He Hao’s eyes and exchanged a look of solidarity.

The roles of giver and receiver had been established!

Bright and early the next day, Gu Kaifeng and Lin Feiran got a cab and went to a scenic location. When they got there, Wang Zhuo was still lazing in bed. In their groupchat He Hao said he was currently wiping the face of Wang Zhuo, who wouldn’t get up, with a towel; in a while, he might even feed him breakfast.

Lin Feiran: “......”

Who would believe they weren’t dating?!

The two bought their tickets and spent another 5 yuan on a little booklet that had a map and descriptions of some scenic locations in the mountains. There were five peaks in this mountain range; the main one, Lotus Peak, had an old temple that was more than four hundred years old. It was said to be very spiritual; incense burned brightly there, and in its back garden grew a Bodhi tree which had a legend attached to it.

Gu Kaifeng didn’t react at all; his eyes lay on the right page of the booklet, on the description of a glass bridge.

“What are you looking at?” Lin Feiran stopped reading and followed Gu Kaifeng’s gaze over.

Gu Kaifeng said calmly, “Just looking.”

“There’s a glass bridge on the way to the main peak?” Lin Feiran’s face was filled with the excitement of wanting to try it. “I’ve seen it on the internet. So there’s one here! I’ve always wanted to try going on one!”

Gu Kaifeng ruffled his hair and said lightly, “Then let’s go. I’ve always wanted to try it too.”

Lin Feiran shut the booklet and said cutely, “Are you afraid of heights? If you don’t want to walk the glass bridge we can take a cable car up, or we can climb the west peak. The scenery there’s nice, too.”

“I’m not afraid.” Gu Kaifeng showed his trademark handsome smile. “Have you seen your husband afraid of anything?”

That’s true; my husband isn’t even afraid of ghosts! He’s very courageous! Lin Feiran deeply believed it and hadn’t the slightest trace of doubt, so he was reassured and held on to Gu Kaifeng as he said, “Have you seen that video? A compilation of people being scared and crying on the glass bridge. One guy was so scared he wet his pants, another was so scared his legs gave way and he lay on the ground and had to be dragged away. It was so funny I... ha ha ha...”

Gu Kaifeng was silent for a while. “...... Ha ha.”

Lin Feiran: “That laugh just now sounded a little strange.”

“I didn’t remember at first, but I did see that video.” Gu Kaifeng laughed heartily. “The second one screamed like a pig getting slaughtered, ha ha ha!”

So, the very innocent Lin Feiran relaxed again.

“......” Gu Kaifeng, carrying food and water for two people, stepped onto the mountain path with a heavy heart.

He didn’t know that he’d pay a painful price for stubbornly holding on to his pride!

“Baby, you must be tired. Rest a while?” Gu Kaifeng who was walking in front turned around and asked. His tone was so soft one could wring water out of it.

As Gu Kaifeng finished, even before Lin Feiran could answer, he sat down on a big stone by the path.

“All right, five-minute break.” Lin Feiran leaned against Gu Kaifeng and sat down, taking the hiking bag from him. He pulled out wet wipes and wiped off Gu Kaifeng’s sweat. “Kaifeng, your lips are a little pale. Did you get heatstroke?”

Gu Kaifeng listened to the sounds of screaming and laughing from the direction of the bridge. He waved a hand dismissively, but he seemed worried. “Surely not. I’m strong.”

“You just like to play it tough. I’m saying it now; from here to the mountain peak, I’m carrying the bag,” Lin Feiran complained, and pulled out an energy drink, twisted open the cap and handed it to Gu Kaifeng. “Drink some more to replenish yourself.”

Gu Kaifeng took several large gulps of the drink, as if he was gulping down alcohol.

As if he was trying to get drunk!

The two rested in the shadow of the tree for ten minutes; Gu Kaifeng suddenly stood up as if he had made some momentous decision, picked up the hiking bag in Lin Feiran’s arms and said, “RanRan, let’s go.”

“We said I’d carry it?” Lin Feiran quickly caught up.

“Be good. I’ve rested enough.” Gu Kaifeng pinched Lin Feiran’s face.

Before going onto the bridge, both of them put on their galoshes. Lin Feiran excitedly stepped onto the bridge, looking very daringly down at his feet. He exclaimed, “Wah... this is so exciting! Fun, fun!”

Gu Kaifeng scooped up Lin Feiran’s hand without another word and held it tightly. The two walked forward a little; Lin Feiran excitedly took out his phone and snapped photos, but Gu Kaifeng’s face got paler and paler, his footsteps growing labored. At this time, a mischievous child ahead of them suddenly started jumping on the bridge, making strange howling sounds as he did so, as if to scare the other tourists on the bridge.

“Damn!” Gu Kaifeng’s courage snapped!

He sprinted to one side of the rock face, one hand clutching on to Lin Feiran for dear life, the other tightly gripping an outcrop from the rock wall, as if they were about to fall and this stone was all that kept them from it.

Lin Feiran was shocked by Gu Kaifeng’s sudden movement and he said in surprise, “Kaifeng?”

Gu Kaifeng’s chest was heaving and he said weakly, “Baby, you go first. I’ll take a break.”

“What’s the matter?” Lin Feiran asked in disbelief.”

At this time, Gu Kaifeng was still concerned with defending his own image as a fearless hero in Lin Feiran’s heart, so he grit his teeth and said, “Got heatstroke, a little.”

Lin Feiran looked him over and instantly understood. He said tenderly, “Why didn’t you tell me you were scared?”

Gu Kaifeng said stubbornly, “I wasn’t scared. I got heatstroke.”

Lin Feiran: “......”

Gu Kaifeng ignored the curious gazes of the surrounding people, and with ample boyfriend energy, he rushed up and hugged Gu Kaifeng who was plastered to the rock face like a lizard. He suggested, very tactfully, “Since you got heatstroke, then shut your eyes and I’ll lead you, how about it?”

Gu Kaifeng’s expression was resolute: “I’m not going.”

Lin Feiran said patiently, ‘Then... let’s go back. The road back is shorter.”

Gu Kaifeng said with an expression that suggested he’d stay here until the sky was barren and the earth old, “Let’s not. We’ve already come this far. Baby, you go first. Leave me alone; I just need to rest a while and I’ll be fine.”

Lin Feiran thought about it then changed his angle. “Actually, it’s very safe here. I guarantee that nobody’s fallen and died from... heatstroke. If you don’t believe me, use your Yin-Yang eyes to look. If you see one, I lose.”

In order to keep Gu Kaifeng’s face, Lin Feiran turned ‘the bridge might fall’ into ‘heatstroke’!

Gu Kaifeng heard it and really shut his eyes.

About ten seconds later both their sets of Yin-Yang eyes opened.

Gu Kaifeng: “......”

Lin Feiran: “......”

They had thought before that there were many tourists on this mountain but they had never imagined that there were even more ghosts than people.

Thousands and tens of thousands of ghosts, male and female and young and old, came howling forth from all directions like a great rain ascending upward from the earth to the sky. Their translucent bodies passed through the glass bridge from below, drifting towards the Lotus Peak. Lin Feiran and Gu Kaifeng couldn’t see the peak from their position, but they could see a golden light radiating from the peak, as if there was a mega-watt lightbulb there.
