Because of My Stupidity, I Became a Timid Vampire

Chapter 57 : Let's End It Here

After finishing breakfast, the group of three arrived at their morning destination—Disney Land.

"Good grief, so many people." Xifeng sighed. As expected of Crescent City's top resort destination, even though there was still a full half hour until opening, several long queues had already formed at the entrance.

Xifeng roughly estimated that if they started queuing from the back now, it would take at least an hour before they could enter the park.

"We should have come earlier." He Pingge also smiled bitterly. It was only just eight o'clock—had all these people been queuing here overnight?

Just as the two were at a loss looking at the long queues, Bei Yaoyue patted Xifeng's shoulder: "Come on, let's go over there."

"Huh?" Xifeng looked in the direction Bei Yaoyue was pointing—it was a small door beside the main entrance with large characters reading "VIP Express Lane," with only a few dozen people queuing in front.

Xifeng had heard of VIP express lanes. People with these passes could skip queues for attractions—it was generally a privilege for wealthy people whose time was extremely valuable and who didn't want to waste time queuing.

"You bought that VIP pass thing?" Xifeng was stunned. Although she had never bought such a thing, she estimated the price per person might be in the four digits.

"I bought them for all of us." Leaving these words behind, Bei Yaoyue led the way over there, leaving Xifeng and He Pingge looking at each other in bewilderment.

Damn it! Being rich really does let you do whatever you want!

After some time chatting, it was finally time for Disney to open. After going through security that turned their bags inside out, the three were among the first to enter Disney Land.

"Have you planned the touring route?" Walking at the front like a leader, Bei Yaoyue asked casually.

"Uh... no." Xifeng laughed dryly. "Our original plan was to wander around randomly and play whatever we saw."

"That's how you two came to Disney?" Bei Yaoyue stopped, turned around with a slight frown. "Not only did you come late, you didn't even make a plan. The slightly popular attractions here have queues starting at an hour. How many attractions do you think you'll be able to play today at this rate?"

Faced with Bei Yaoyue's questioning, Xifeng shrugged indifferently. She wasn't really interested in amusement parks anyway—it was He Pingge who suggested coming to Disney, so she was mostly just accompanying He Pingge.

As for what specifically to play, it really didn't matter to her.

Unlike Xifeng's reaction, He Pingge shamefully lowered her head, thinking that her sister-in-law was right—she hadn't thought it through well enough.

"Let's head inside first." With a light sigh, Bei Yaoyue took out her phone and walked ahead again. "I'll see what attractions are open today."

Walking alongside Xifeng, He Pingge looked at the countless shops selling various souvenirs on both sides of the path and asked: "Why are there so many shops at the amusement park entrance?"

"The reason is simple. Look, after entering from the entrance, there's only this one path to go forward. If you want to play the rides, you must pass through here, and it's the same when coming back. This way you'll definitely see these shops, and once you see them, there's no guarantee you won't go in and buy something.

"It's the same principle as many large shopping malls where escalators on the same floor are on the same side, but connecting to go up or down floors requires making a big circle—the purpose is to make you see more of their merchandise, because there will always be people who can't control their hands."

"I see." He Pingge nodded thoughtfully. That did make sense.

At this moment, Xifeng's phone vibrated. She quickly took it out and unlocked the screen.

"From 'System': New task has been issued, please confirm promptly."

When she saw this notification, Xifeng felt her whole person was not well. What was this system doing, giving her a task at this time?

This situation was different from before—she and Bei Yaoyue were not only not alone together, but were in the bustling Disney Land, and worst of all, He Pingge was with them. She absolutely didn't want He Pingge to know about her ambiguous relationship with Bei Yaoyue.

"Good system, please, give me some easy tasks." The girl was aging prematurely.

But after Xifeng opened the task details, cruel reality gave her another harsh blow.

"[Task]:

Task Description: Amusement parks are great places for dates, sanctuaries where lovers pour out their hearts to each other. So why not take this opportunity to confess your love to her and announce your relationship to the world, leaving your mark in her heart.

Task Objective: Confess to her and actively kiss her once in a place where at least one hundred people can see: 0/1.

Time Limit: 2 hours 59 minutes 27 seconds.

Task Reward: Legendary Gacha Ticket ×1.

Failure Penalty: Affection decreased by 50 points."

"..."

Her eyes trembled, Xifeng's expression instantly froze, petrified in place.

Even though she had mentally prepared herself, the task content still left her incredulous. This task actually wanted Bei Yaoyue to confess to her and kiss her in front of everyone?

No... she couldn't accept this.

Xifeng bit her lip tightly, her already pale face turning completely white from excessive panic, and the corners of her mouth even seeped traces of bright red blood from excessive force.

Not to mention how she would get Bei Yaoyue to obediently execute the task requirements, even if Bei Yaoyue was really willing to do so, she absolutely couldn't feel at ease exposing their relationship in front of everyone.

If Bei Yaoyue really confessed publicly and kissed her, she believed that with Bei Yaoyue's personality, she absolutely wouldn't care about anything, but she was different.

In their current unclear relationship, her thoughts, considerations, worries, and concerns were far more than Bei Yaoyue's, because she felt this was the responsibility she should have as a man.

They were still young, still had other paths to take. There was no need to burn bridges here and cut off all escape routes.

Therefore, she would not do this task.

But what made Xifeng despair was that the failure penalty for the task was equally cruelly unacceptable.

"[Affection]:

Affection Level: 78

Xifeng now views Bei Yaoyue as someone above a friend."

Staring at the phone screen, Xifeng looked at that string of numbers in a daze. If she wasn't mistaken, when this number reached 80... it would enter the lover level, right?

She hadn't expected that she had already sunk deeper and deeper into Bei Yaoyue's quagmire.

But if this task failed, this number would drop to 28, and her feelings for Bei Yaoyue would return to the level of ordinary friends.

After staring blankly for a while, Xifeng showed a bitter smile. Letting the affection level drop back to 28—wasn't that pretty good too?

Undoubtedly, she had gradually begun to like Bei Yaoyue now, but precisely because she liked her, she didn't want Bei Yaoyue to walk down the rough and irreversible path of forbidden sisterly love, which wouldn't be good for either of them.

Just these past few days, she increasingly felt that she was gradually developing irrepressible wavering under Bei Yaoyue's persistence. She was afraid that before long, she wouldn't be able to maintain her position and would be completely conquered by Bei Yaoyue.

"That's fine too..." Xifeng laughed quietly to herself.

It was her indulgence that allowed Bei Yaoyue to be so unscrupulous and push for more.

Now their relationship had gradually crossed that forbidden boundary, and in this, aside from Bei Yaoyue, her own permissiveness bore inescapable responsibility.

They had already done too many things they shouldn't have done. Perhaps she should take this opportunity of affection returning to zero to completely calm down, and then...

Find a way to return to a normal sisterly relationship with Bei Yaoyue.
