218 Testing the Truth
“Alright, let’s see if it’s real or fake.” Mu Wei pointed at the pendulum in front of him. “Let’s see who can’t hold on first.”
After the three of them sat down, as the facility was activated, the pendulum spun like lightning and slowly rose into the sky under the violent shaking. The fuselage spun 360 degrees, causing people to instantly fly dozens of meters into the sky. As it swayed repeatedly, what followed was a dazzling feeling.
Mu Wei, who was sitting on the seat, could no longer suppress himself. He shouted the moment he fell from the sky, but Zhou Xuan and Shan Yue’s expressions did not change at all.
As the pendulum landed steadily, Mu Wei was already feeling a little uncomfortable. In the following rides, he finally could not hold on anymore.
“You guys go ahead. I’m going to find a bathroom to vomit.” Mu Wei looked embarra.s.sed and frowned. “Do the two of you really not feel anything? You’ve been playing for so long, but you don’t even feel uncomfortable.”
Shan Yue said in a teasing tone, “President Mu, it seems that you’re still not good enough.”
Before Shan Yue could finish, Mu Wei could not help but feel his stomach churning. He covered his mouth and ran to the bathroom.
At this moment, Zhou Xuan also dispersed the bodyguards beside him, creating an opportunity to talk to Shan Yue alone.
“Shan Yue.” Zhou Xuan looked sideways, a thin coldness flas.h.i.+ng across his eyes. “Oh no, perhaps I shouldn’t call you that.”
“President Zhou really knows how to joke. What do you mean by that?” Shan Yue looked puzzled, and her tone was filled with confusion. “If my name isn’t Shan Yue, what should I be called?”
Zhou Xuan narrowed his eyes casually. “As for this question, you should ask yourself.”
“President Zhou is also a smart person.” There was a coldness on Shan Yue’s lips. “Just say what you want to say. There’s no need to hide it. It’s not in line with your style.”
“In that case, I’ll say whatever I want.” The aura between Zhou Xuan’s eyebrows instantly condensed into frost. “I got He Sheng to get someone to investigate. In the past, Shan Yue, be it her mentality, physique, or ability, was an extremely mediocre ordinary person no matter how you looked at it. She’s not in the state you’re in now.”
Shan Yue raised her eyebrows nonchalantly. “Oh? I didn’t expect President Zhou’s subordinates to be so fast. They’ve already finished investigating me.”
“Please forgive me, Miss Shan.” Zhou Xuan’s expression softened, and the corners of his lips curled into a faint smile. “After all, people in my position have to be careful in everything they do. The people around me have to know everything. It’s all necessary for work. There’s nothing we can do.”
“It’s okay.” Shan Yue’s brows were filled with calmness. “But just because of this, this shouldn’t prove that I’m not Shan Yue.”
“Of course, there’s also the most important point.” Zhou Xuan frowned and turned around, his thin lips curling up. “In the past, because of Shan Yue’s size and mental endurance, she wouldn’t have come into contact with these rides when she went to the amus.e.m.e.nt park. The strong stimulation and the mockery of others would make her heart unable to take it, let alone be like you. After playing these once, you can still be safe and sound when even Mu Wei can’t take it.”
Shan Yue’s lips were still filled with a smile, but the smile was shallow and dark. “So today, President Zhou pretended to arrange to bring me to the amus.e.m.e.nt park with President Mu. Your fundamental goal was not to relax, but to take this opportunity to test me.”
Zhou Xuan’s lips were very calm, and there was no hesitation in his words. “You can understand it that way, but this matter was entirely my idea. It has nothing to do with Mu Wei. When you first asked him in the hotel, you should be able to tell from his reaction that I told him after.”
Although Shan Yue knew that Zhou Xuan would investigate her sooner or later, she did not expect that when this moment really arrived, she would inevitably feel a little disappointed.
