Chapter 297 - 298: The Woman Across
Chu You had always been afraid of the cold since he was a child, whenever the weather was cold, an immature multiple choice question would appear in his mind.
It asked whether he’d rather freeze to death or die from heat, Chu You would without hesitation choose the latter!
Freezing to death scared him out of his wits...
"Chu You, where are you?" Lin Luo, holding her cell phone for light in the extreme darkness, saw no hint of light around her and no movement downstairs. Zhou Zhijun was clearly sound asleep. The area was quiet, eerily so. After she exited the game pod, Lin Luo felt the gust of cold wind hit her and her voice trembled slightly when she spoke.
Was it the darkness causing fear for Lin Luo or was it the dropping temperature affecting her mood? Perhaps it was a bit of both.
People say that the "Celestial World" game can effectively hone a person’s ability to resist fear. However, influenced by Chu You, Lin Luo hadn’t experienced the same hauntingly frightening events in the game world as she did in her previous life. Her mental resilience didn’t strengthen but got affected by terrifying images instead.
The ghostly white cell phone light was all she had. No one was around and not a sound came from the outside. She felt as though she was all alone in an unfamiliar secret chamber.
The cell phone’s light shined on the bedroom door of Chu You. As Lin Luo arrived, the bedroom door slowly opened.
"Luo er, the power really went out." Chu You said with a frown, then he noticed something odd about the beauty before him.
"Are you freezing? And to think today’s been a series of unfortunate events, a blackout and a sudden change in weather." The cold wind from the north pierced bone-deep and sudden changes in weather were common.
Lin Luo wore the thin summer clothes she always did, her skin was baby fat-like, her slightly plump figure made her seem all the more charming in summer outfits. Her busty chest stretched the white cotton short sleeves tight, and perhaps due to the cold, one hand was wrapped around her chest, which made her bosom look all the more noticeable, and alluring.
