Chapter 125

As Shi Youran stood still, a group of staff members in clown masks and circus unitards rushed onto the stage and brought out a large vat. They grabbed Shi Youran and shoved her inside without a word. As the music grew more intense, the look on Shi Youran's face became increasingly terrified. Her lips moved in silent protest, but her pleas were drowned out by the raucous noise. Next, a muscular performer lay flat on his back, supporting a person on his feet. A second person stood on that person’s shoulders, and that person, in turn, bent over to carry a third performer in an L-shape on his back. The L-shaped performer then balanced the vat on his feet. Inside the vat, Shi Youran was screaming at the top of her lungs, tears streaming down her face. The vat began to spin. Gazing down from a height of several meters, Shi Youran nearly fainted. The revelers in the audience, watching her reactions, shrieked with growing delight. The performers on stage, hearing the cheers, put even more effort into their act. When the music finally ended, Shi Youran was lowered down level by level, then sprinted to the side of the stage and retched violently.
