After the director finished speaking, Ariana nodded and replied, “I understand. I’ll try to be more active.”
She didn’t really want to interact with the male guests, but she knew causing trouble for the director was not her intention.
Since she had agreed to be here, she didn’t want to complicate things for the director.
Once the director had gone, Ariana reviewed the event schedule. They were set to play a game later.
She knew this part well and was confident she would do well.
Soon, it was time for the game.
The show’s crew had created several games intended to help the guests bond.
Indeed, at this moment, everyone remained somewhat reserved and not particularly acquainted with each other. Their focus leaned towards maintaining their personal images, resulting in a cautious approach during play.
Ariana, on the other hand, wasn’t burdened by such concerns. She wasn’t on the show to find a boyfriend, so she played freely without worrying about her image.
Initially, Ariana aimed to blend into the group through simple games.

However, the program’s crew crafted an engaging game that caught her interest. She took charge effortlessly, consistently securing first place in every game session without fail.
Jennifer, who had joined the show just for some fun, hit it off with Ariana right away, and they both threw themselves into the competition.
During the catching stage, the other guests paired off with those they fancied, creating a romantic ambiance. Ariana and Jennifer, however, eager to emerge victorious, pursued the other couples relentlessly throughout the game.
The other guests began to wonder if they were on a dating show or a competitive game show.
Ariana and Jennifer were so engrossed in the game that they hardly noticed the male guests at all.
In the escape room session, the host explained the rules and the props.
“Our counter system features a cross. You must complete a single quest to obtain the cross. The player who acquires the cross can then counterattack the ghosts in the room.”
Once the rules were laid out, they entered the room.
Ariana showed no fear, and Jennifer followed her.
After conquering two challenges, they were to be split into two groups. The teams were decided by drawing lots, with the option to swap teammates if desired.
Ariana and Jennifer quickly chose to team up.
When it came time to pick a quest, Ariana selected the quest involving the cross.
The escape room was filled with traps, including creepy sound effects, moving mechanisms, and NPCs who appeared suddenly to chase the guests.
Before Ariana began, she could hear screams and the sound of running from other rooms. It seemed that everyone else was frightened.
