The platform was not high and there was a man-made lake below. Since this was situated in an amusement park, it would not be an overly exciting one.
The staff member was helping Fang Moâer and Shi Mo check if the buckles had been fastened properly. Although it was not very high, a direct fall would still mean their death.
âAre you afraid?â Shi Mo said gently as he held Fang Moâerâs hand.
It would be a lie to say that she was not afraid. Even if she was not very high, it would still be scary if she looked down from above. Fang Moâer looked down carefully and suddenly felt dizzy. She quickly turned around.
Because she was so nervous, her hands felt cold.
Sensing that she was not behaving normally, Shi Mo comforted her, âAre you able to do it? If you canât, then we wonât jump. Donât force yourself.â
Fang Moâer stretched her limbs to soften her stiff body. As she moved, she said, âNo, no, I want to challenge myself. Besides, youâre by my side.â
Seeing that his wife had so much faith in him, Shi Mo smiled widely. Thatâs right, he was with her anyway. The director hid behind the camera and explained, âIt seems that both of our guests are very calm, especially Miss Fang Moâer. Sheâs been through a lot since she was cast in a big movie. Itâs no wonder sheâs so popular.â His words of praise were actually meant for Shi Moâs ears. After all, he was her financial backer and everyone knew how much he valued Fang Moâer. There was no harm for him to flatter her more.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Once everything was ready, the staff signaled to the director to indicate that they could start.
Fang Moâer and Shi Mo stood at the edge of the platform. They could jump down as soon as they were ready.

Just then, Wang Zi suddenly appeared out of nowhere. She did not look too good. Even after resting for so long, her face was still pale. She looked at Fang Mo with a complicated gaze that seemed to be a look of atonement.
She walked up to Fang Moâer and stopped a few steps away from her. She said slowly, âIâm sorry, Miss Fang. Itâs all my fault that you have to bungee jump. When youâre done, please allow me to treat you to a meal to make amends. How about that?â
Her words were inexplicable and confused Fang Moâer.
The director and the audience who were watching the live broadcast thought that Wang Zi was trying to curry favor with Fang Moâer. Since Fang Moâer was much more popular than her, she was probably afraid of offending her because she had caused her to be punished.
âItâs just a challenge. Itâs normal for there to be winners and losers. Even if you had won, the amateur team would still have had to bungee jump. No matter what, someone has to accept the punishment, so you donât have to apologize.â
Anyone could say nice things, including Fang Moâer.
Moreover, this was not the kind of matter she would get angry over. After all, it was normal for her to be afraid. Some people could not control their screams when they were afraid, while others could not make a sound when they were afraid.
No one paid any attention to Wang Ziâs sudden abnormal behavior.
When they were ready, Fang Moâer took a deep breath and jumped first.
Shi Mo had been paying attention to Fang Moâerâs movements. When he saw that she had jumped, he immediately followed her and jumped. It would be too dangerous if it was too early or too late.
Fang Moâer had jumped with her face up. The sudden feeling of weightlessness made her feel flustered. The wind whistled in her ears and at this moment, time seemed to have stopped. The only thing she felt was her falling body.
There was no way for her body to use her strength and there was nothing she could grab onto. Only the fear of losing control invaded her nerves.
At that moment, Fang Moâerâs mind was filled with thoughts of whether she would die?
If she died, would she return to her original world?
What would happen to Moâer if she returned to her original world? What would happen if she died and it was over?
She wanted to scream, but she could not make a sound.
She was the type of person who would become increasingly silent the more nervous she became. However, when she saw Shi Mo falling down from above, she suddenly felt a sense of comfort.
Shi Moâs expression had not even changed. He only looked at her worriedly.
After some time had passed, the elastic force from the rope around her ankles pulled her back to reality.
It turned out that she had reached her limit. The elastic rope pulled her body in the air and bounced her several times. The head-down position caused the blood to rush towards her brain. She felt as if her head had swollen up and she could not think properly.
The feeling of her ankles being pulled by the rope also made her feel at ease.
The swaying of the rope gradually lessened. Shi Moâs body had almost stabilized as well and the next thing to do would be to wait for the staff to come and pick them up.
Fang Moâer endured the fear and turned her head to look down.
At this moment, she was already very close to the surface of the lake. If the rope at her feet were just a little longer, she would be able to fall straight into the water.
At this height, she did not know if she would fall to her death.
Just as she was thinking about this, the rope around her ankles suddenly loosened, and the feeling of weightlessness from the free fall assaulted her once again.
She looked up and saw Shi Moâs terrified expression. She saw that the rope that had originally been tied to her ankle had suddenly snapped.
