CHAPTER 62: CHAPTER 62: THE PARALYZED PRINCESS OF PETERBURG GOES OUT

Shu Ran sat steadily on the swing, tightly grasping the ropes on both sides, quickly letting go to adjust her safety helmet, only to grab onto the ropes again just as quickly.

She seemed genuinely scared.

"Now it’s our turn to get on the roller. How do you guys want to sit?" Cheng Zhirang asked.

"How about the two girls sit on the side?" Shi Yuhuai suggested. "That way, the person in the middle can push, and they just need to sit steadily."

Li Yang raised a hand. "I don’t think sitting all in the middle works well. Where would we push from? Let’s push the ropes on both sides, and leave someone in the middle to push the swing."

Mu Qiu glanced at the soft roller quietly waiting for them and said, "I think we can try both ways. But the most obvious problem now isn’t the formation—it’s whether we can get on at all."

Hearing this, everyone looked toward the roller. Guan Yu went up and pushed, and the roller spun a few circles effortlessly.

"...It’s really this easy to spin?!" Get on it, and we’d just fall right off. How are we supposed to stabilize and push the swing?

"Let’s try sitting on it."

Li Yang rolled up his shirt sleeves, cautiously straddled from the right, trying to sit atop.

Just as his butt touched the roller, the smile hadn’t yet surfaced on his face when the roller spun, and Li Yang’s expression changed drastically. In a panic, he flailed around, then with a "pia," fell onto the mat behind.

Falling isn’t the end of it. Due to his awkward position, his long legs hit the roller, pushing him quickly down the slope into the foam pit.

Li Yang, buried in foam cubes: "..."

The others: "..."

Guan Yu: "Well, the experience of those before tells us not to be reckless, but be cautious. Otherwise, it’s like falling in a suit."

Li Yang popped his head out of the pit below with a whoosh, struggling to climb up.

"My God, this is too slippery. Director! Can we change clothes? It’s hard to do this in a suit!"

The director said: "The task is triggered randomly; there aren’t that many clothes prepared."

So, they could only fall wearing the suits.

Guan Yu watched his awkward state with glee, then looked at Cheng Zhirang and Shi Yuhuai. "Your clothes aren’t suitable either. Only Mu Qiu’s and mine are easier to move in."

Due to the clothing, everyone finally decided that Mu Qiu and Guan Yu should go onto the roller first, find a way to steady themselves, then let a third person up.

Mu Qiu, dressed in a tank top and workwear pants, a blue safety helmet with a GoPro clipped on it, elbow pads on her arms, looked like a well-equipped construction worker.

She straddled from the left side, carefully testing the roller’s rotation threshold.

However, due to her short legs, even with her toes fully extended, she barely touched the ground, unable to let go of the soft platform beside her.

"Hold me."

At the critical moment, Cheng Zhirang came up, stretching his hand out to her.

His hand was palm up, fist clenched, the white shirt cuff buttoned tightly, his entire arm screamed "I’m a gentleman."

"Thank you, Brother Cheng."

Mu Qiu quickly glanced at him, cautiously placing her hand on his, fingers gripping his wrist for a bit of support.

Unexpectedly, he provided support, calming her breath significantly. Just having Cheng Zhirang nearby, his mere presence enveloping her, made her feel at ease.

They coordinated well. Mu Qiu gradually moved to the middle of the roller, leaning down to lower her center of gravity, excitedly waving at Guan Yu.

"Sister Guan Yu, it works! Come on, come on!"

"Coming!"

Guan Yu perked up, mimicked Mu Qiu’s method from the opposite side, with Shi Yuhuai holding her hand for support, she moved slowly towards her. Twice she almost toppled over, but luckily, Shi Yuhuai grabbed her, pulling her back to stability.

The two met in the middle.

Guan Yu had been holding her breath and finally could breathe deeply.

Mu Qiu shook her head, sighing, "Suddenly reminded of a problem from primary school."

"What?"

"Two construction teams A and B build roads at different speeds, meeting on the third day at a point 218 meters from the middle line. What are their respective speeds?"

"Hard on you, suffocating till your brain was deprived of oxygen, and you still recall primary school problems."

After saying this, the two exchanged glances and laughed.

For some reason, they just suddenly felt like laughing, and once they started, they couldn’t stop.

Mu Qiu laughed so hard her entire body was shaking, the roller following their movements began tilting to the side.

"Hey, hey, hey! It’s moving again! Don’t laugh! Don’t laugh!"

"Stay steady, stay steady!"

They were hysterical, not knowing whether to hold onto the roller or each other, their frantic state was comparable to Li Yang’s earlier.

With two thuds, they fell off directly.

[??? Just that primary school problem made them laugh like that?]

[Have my years of internet surfing raised my laughter threshold?]

[caocaocao I think I can’t solve such a problem]

[Normal, normal. Sometimes I burst out laughing even when washing dishes]

[Woah, glimpsing Mu Qiu’s figure is pretty good]

[Oh, my dear Guan Yu, just seeing her makes me want to laugh]

[Did you see Shi Yuhuai’s expression? Utter frustration with a touch of steel! Hahahahahahaha]

[One wrapped in fur for hibernation, the other in a vest ready for a desert mission, rolling down together. Welcome to this episode of "Strange Things Happening All Year Round, This Year’s Extra Abundant"]

[Brother Cheng laughed! He’s laughing at the female guest! I caught it!]

[Li Yang’s expressions are about to take off... What exactly am I a fan of]

Li *What Exactly* Yang couldn’t hold back any longer and burst into laughter, "Hahahahahahahahaha! You now know its true power?!"

He laughed with a goose-like sound, a stark contrast to the stage’s little prince aura his fans adored.

Mu Qiu rolled into the foam pit, sitting up in shock, pulling the still floundering Guan Yu out, exhaling heavily.

Guan Yu slapped a foam block nearby in frustration: "Just a little laugh! Just laughed a bit, and that was it!"

"No worries, this time we can laugh it out before going up again."

Guan Yu gave her an exasperated look.

The two perked up again, climbing back up, "Once more, I don’t believe it, we can stabilize this time."

"I think so too."

So the utility men Cheng Zhirang and Shi Yuhuai stood by again, offering an arm to support the two slowly moving from opposite sides towards the center.

This helping hand scene was quite funny, and Guan Yu’s joker spirit couldn’t contain, saying as she moved: "Finally, the paraplegic princesses from Peterburg and Edward Castle meet. Sister, your knight looks good, can he push my wheelchair?"

"Pffft—Ahahahahahahahahahahaha, Sister Guan Yu, stop talking!"

Mu Qiu tried to hold back but couldn’t, closing her eyes, beginning to laugh again, shaking as she laughed.

Even Cheng Zhirang, who she was relying on, was helpless, the smile on his lips deepening, still trying to advise them, "Stop laughing."
