Chapter 66
Chapter 66
When Chen Ye got home, it was already late at night.
All was silent.
When he opened the bedroom door, Shu Yao was sitting at the desk, looking at the documents seriously, and she seemed not to realize that he was back.
Shen Ye took off his coat, supported himself on the table with his right hand, leaned over and kissed her on the face.
Shu Yao came back to his senses and smiled: "You're back."
"Yeah." Chen Ye glanced down and realized that under the bathrobe, she was wearing a pair of pajamas that he had never seen before. It was a low-key black, but it had suspenders, which made her skin look even more like snow. The lace design on the neckline made the curve of her figure vaguely visible.
Shen Ye's Adam's apple rolled and he asked, "Did you buy new pajamas?"
"The weather was bad, and last night's clothes weren't dry yet. I didn't bring any new ones, so I asked Mom for one she hadn't worn before." Shu Yao glanced down with an innocent expression, "Isn't it a little see-through?"
Chen Ye didn't answer yes or no. He leaned back lazily, with a somewhat frivolous smile on his face.
"How can you tell that?"
My original intention was just to tease her, to see her wrap her bathrobe tightly around her and her ears turn red.
But to his surprise, Shu Yao seemed a little different today.
She stood up and slowly took off her white bathrobe, less than half a meter away from him. The bedroom was kept at a constant temperature, so it wasn't too cold. Against the backdrop of the black suspenders, her skin was as white as top-grade white jade, with a warm luster.
She pursed her lips and asked in a low voice, "How about this?"
Chen Ye's eyes darkened, and he placed his right hand behind her waist and gently pulled her forward. Their bodies were pressed tightly together through their not-so-thick clothes.
The faint scent of cherry blossoms on her body wafted into my nose.
Shen Ye lowered his head, and the kiss was gentle and soft at first, spreading from the corner of her mouth all the way to her collarbone.
But gradually, the dual stimulation of vision and smell made his movements become bolder.
One side of the black suspenders was gently hooked down to the arm, and Chen Ye's right hand slowly extended upwards from the thigh. The black skirt rolled up and rested on his wrist, covering half of the scenery.
Shu Yao's skin slowly turned pink.
His right hand was grabbed and brought to the second button of his shirt. Chen Ye's voice sounded a little hoarse, almost begging her in a whisper: "Unbutton it."
Shu Yao obediently unbuttoned that button and moved his right hand down until the shirt was completely untied.
She placed her palm on his chest, feeling his rapidly beating heart.
The shirt was swept to the ground, and Shen Ye's right hand reached down and picked her up.
Shu Yao wrapped her arms around his waist, and to prevent him from falling, she wrapped her arms tightly around his neck.
The silk around the waist looks like a stroke of ink on white paper.
Shen Ye's right hand slowly moved down, and then his Adam's apple rolled.
He stared at her for a moment before coming to his senses. His voice was thick with lust: "Is your period coming?"
"Ah." Shu Yao seemed to have just remembered this and said slowly, "I forgot. I just came here this afternoon."
Shen Ye: "..."
Shu Yao pulled the straps up, and like a nimble fish, she escaped from the fisherman's grasp. She turned to the side and wrapped herself tightly with the quilt.
Shu Yao smiled apologetically: "Go take a shower."
Chen Ye looked at the seemingly unintentional smile on her face and narrowed his eyes slightly. He did not get out of bed, but instead held her in his arms again through the thin quilt, burying his head in her neck, looking a little aggrieved.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Shu Yao wasn't actually angry to begin with. She was just a little surprised after learning the truth about her grandmother's phone call, so she deliberately teased him. Now that her goal had been achieved, she didn't hide it: "I heard from your brother today that your grandmother's threat to you that you wouldn't have surgery if you didn't get married was just a joke, right?"
"Almost." Chen Ye raised his head, his eyes still full of lust, his gaze even deeper. "When did you and my brother become so familiar with each other?"
"No." Shu Yao briefly recounted what happened today. "I think it might be my experience that gave your brother confidence, but I really didn't expect that he could also do wood carving."
Shen Ye buried his head in silence.
"You..." Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly began to reflect on whether he had teased him too much. "Are you angry? I know I'm not angry about this kind of thing. You won't be angry just because I teased you, right?"
Suddenly, a low laugh came from my ear.
"You're not angry, so why should I be angry?" Chen Ye raised his head, his hot lips lingering on her burning earlobe, his right hand still restless.
Shu Yao suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly pressed the back of his hand to remind him: "I am really on my period. If you don't stop, you will be the one who suffers later."
"Really?" Chen Ye responded softly, then he put his backhand around her wrist and slowly brought her hand down. He put his hand close to her ear and asked in a very soft voice, "Do you know what a manual transmission is?"
Shu Yao: “…”
A heat came from the palm of his hand, and Shu Yao's ears turned another shade redder.
She had no experience at all, so she closed her eyes and let him move her right hand up and down. Her hand was sore, but he showed no sign of stopping.
A few suppressed groans burned her ears. Shu Yao buried her head in his chest and began to regret her decision tonight.
The process is long.
I don’t know how long it was before the phone on the bedside table suddenly vibrated.
Shu Yao's first reaction was that her mother must have arrived home not long ago, and she wondered if she had forgotten something.
She stopped and tried to pick up the phone with her other hand, but he held the back of her hand. He buried his head in her neck and said in a suppressed voice, "Right away."
Until the vibration sounded for the second time, Shen Ye's back finally stiffened and he stopped, his breathing slightly rapid.
Her palms were warm, and Shu Yao had the illusion that her body temperature had soared to 40 degrees. She had just grabbed her phone when she was taken into the bathroom by Chen Ye.
The warm water flowed through his fingers and washed over his palms. Shu Yao didn't dare to look and opened his phone to divert his attention.
Qian Haosen: [Another year is coming to an end. Life is so fleeting. Haven't you made plans for your retirement yet?]
Qian Haosen: [Anxin Insurance has recently launched the "Sunset Red Financial Management Plan" to ensure peace of mind in your old age. Welcome to consult.]
Shen Ye stood behind her, noticed her stiffness, lowered his eyes slightly, and saw the message on the screen at a glance.
Shen Ye narrowed his eyes: "You also added him on WeChat?"
"He gave me his business card at Xu Zhaoli's wedding. Later, I wanted to buy some insurance for my mother, so I asked for advice."
“…” Chen Ye was speechless for a moment, “So he was selling you insurance that day?”
"Ah, about right."
The sound of water stopped, and Shen Ye took a face towel to help her dry her hands. He put his arms around her waist from behind, resting his chin on the top of her head. Qian Haosen's words reminded him of something: "New Year's Eve is in two days."
Shu Yao raised his eyes and met his gaze in the mirror: "So?"
Shen Ye lowered his head and kissed the top of her head: "Didn't you say before that you wanted to go to the amusement park?"
*
There is actually another reason why Shu Yao wants to go to the amusement park.
During the summer vacation after graduating from high school, Zhao Tiantian suggested that since Shu Yao's birthday was on a weekend and everyone had applied to schools in Fuchuan, they could go to the amusement park together on her birthday.
But unexpectedly, I didn’t wait until her birthday.
Chen Ye went abroad, and the budding love between Zhao Tiantian and Xu Zhaoli died early, and the original agreement was naturally forgotten by everyone.
But for Shu Yao, it was indeed a pity.
Because, that was the first birthday in her life that someone wanted to celebrate for her, and it was also the first time that she tried to open her heart and accept someone into her life.
But in the end, they only reached the door and then turned back.
On New Year's Eve, there was a light snow in Fuchuan and the temperature reached a new low.
Before Shu Yao went out, he deliberately put on an extra sweater, but he was still shivering in the cold wind. However, the cold did not stop everyone's enthusiasm for the New Year's Eve, and the Fuchuan Amusement Park was crowded with people.
Over the past decade, the amusement park has undergone several renovations and has basically lost its original appearance, but Shu Yao inexplicably feels a sense of familiarity.
"I think I've been here before when I was very young." Shu Yao thought for a moment, "But it could be something else. Amusement parks all look pretty much the same."
"This is it." Chen Ye took the cotton candy handed to him by the stall owner and passed it to Shu Yao.
Shu Yao took it and asked doubtfully, "How did you know?"
Shen Ye said: “Listen to what mom said.”
"Oh." Shu Yao lowered his head and took a bite of the marshmallow.
The dense and sweet taste makes people feel happy.
Shen Ye looked down, then leaned over and took a bite at the place where she had bitten.
Shu Yao was a little surprised to see that he had actually eaten it: "I thought you only ate lemon mint lollipops."
"Who said that?"
"Because I haven't seen you eat anything else." Shu Yao smiled, "But you've been eating less and less lollipops lately."
Last time, he took it because she told him it was an amnesia pill.
"Yeah." Shen Ye did not deny it.
"Are you in a bad mood lately?" Shu Yao was a little worried, but when she saw the smile between his eyebrows, she didn't think it was the case.
Shen Ye raised his eyebrows slightly, "Who said I only like to eat lollipops when I'm in a good mood?"
"I heard it from Xu Zhaoli."
Shen Ye sneered, "He knows nothing."
"..." Shu Yao was curious, "Then why do you always eat that?"
“I ate it once when I was a kid and thought it was delicious, and then I got used to it.”
"Then why haven't you eaten recently?"
"Because—" Chen Ye leaned over and kissed her on the lips, with a sweet marshmallow taste, "It's sweeter here than sugar."
Shu Yao silently looked away and clenched the wooden stick in his hand. Fortunately, it was New Year's Eve today and young couples could be seen everywhere in the amusement park. This situation was not uncommon and no one cared.
The two held hands and walked along the avenue for a while. Shen Ye asked, "What do you want to play?"
Shu Yao looked around, then pointed at the promotional poster not far away without hesitation.
Chen Ye looked in the direction of her finger. There were four big words printed on the poster - Terror on a Rainy Night. Even the poster was designed to be quite gloomy. Behind a broken glass window, a ghost looked hideously at the people in line.
Shen Ye squeezed her hand: "Don't you dislike rainy days?"
Shu Yao took a bite of the marshmallow in his hand and smiled faintly: "No, I actually like rainy days now."
For Shu Yao in the past, when talking about rainy days, the first thing that came to his mind was the pungent smell of alcohol, a man with a hideous face, and the bloody corpse of a puppy.
But for Shu Yao now, when she talks about rainy days, the first thing she thinks of is the basketball coming towards her, him and the puppy hiding from the rain under the security booth, the night of complete heart-to-heart and the soothing kiss.
The two of them went over and lined up.
…
Eight people are allowed in the haunted house at a time.
The design is indeed chilling.
As soon as you enter, you will see a mountain hut that has not been inhabited for a long time. Through the faint red light and shadow, you can see a person lying on the bed, his body covered in blood.
There was a faint smell of blood in the air, and a doll discarded in the corner kept emitting strange singing. Outside the window, lightning and thunder flashed from time to time, making people's backs cold.
In front of them was a young couple. The girl leaned in the boy's arms and asked worriedly, "Will it be scary? I'm scared."
The boy gently held the girl in his arms, bent down and kissed the top of her head, and comforted her: "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Shu Yao blinked.
He secretly glanced at the man next to him.
Then the right hand that was being held quietly exerted a little force.
Shen Ye noticed it keenly, lowered his head and asked, "Afraid?"
Shu Yao lowered his eyes and met the strange doll's gaze. His expression remained unchanged, but he replied softly, "A little."
The sun is rising from the west.
Shen Ye pulled her and held her in his arms.
The faint smell of blood in the air was masked by the light mint scent on his body.
The long and dark corridor was designed to look like a prison. Outside the railings on both sides, there were "ghosts" with bared fangs and claws trying to break through the railings and rush out. The sound of banging was endless.
They need to cross this corridor, from a country cottage to a dilapidated school to look for clues.
Shen Ye lowered his head and asked her: "Are you still afraid?"
The moment the deep voice sounded in his ears, Shu Yao's heart skipped a beat.
It was a feeling completely different from the intimacy we usually have.
She clutched the hem of his coat, her tone weaker: "I'm scared."
“Are you still scared——” Chen Ye wrapped her in his black windbreaker jacket and hugged her waist from behind, “How about this?”
Shu Yao could feel his face getting hot.
But she remained calm.
"Better."
The two of them walked slowly through the corridor. Chen Ye lifted the curtain of a room. Suddenly, a "ghost" in white clothes jumped out from behind the wardrobe next to it, with its hands raised and its fangs and claws bared.
Shu Yao stared at him expressionlessly for two seconds, then turned around and buried his head in Chen Ye's chest, crying out in fear: "Ah."
Shen Ye's chest was shaking slightly. It seemed that he was not frightened at all, but was laughing happily.
Shu Yao knew that her performance today was a little off. After all, it was an impromptu performance and she wasn't well prepared. But since she had already started, she could only bite the bullet and perform to the end.
After finally walking out of the haunted house, Shu Yao breathed a sigh of relief.
I won't come again next time.
She didn't know whether ghosts were scary or not, but when she thought back on her actions just now, it seemed quite scary.
The two turned around and went to queue for the roller coaster.
Having experienced the haunted house before, Shu Yao stared at his right hand and hesitated for a moment, then decided to give up and stop pretending.
However, the next second, Shu Yao's left hand was held by Chen Ye, and their fingers were tightly clasped.
Shu Yao looked at him doubtfully, and saw him utter two words with confidence: "I'm afraid."
Shu Yao: “…”
One is afraid of ghosts and the other is afraid of heights.
They are a good match.
