Chapter 71
Chapter 71
I have nothing to do on the weekend.
Shu Yao cooked another pot of corn and beef porridge.
When Shen Ye got up, she was already setting the table.
He walked behind her, put his arms around her waist, and habitually rested his chin on her shoulder. As he spoke, his voice was filled with sleepiness and a faint mint scent.
"Didn't you say I'd just do it, why did it happen again?"
Shu Yao smiled and filled a large bowl. "When I was at home, my mom never let me do housework or cook. After I started working, I ordered takeout almost every day. I finally have a specialty dish, and I want to practice it."
Chen Ye pinched her fingertips which were slightly hot from holding the bowl: "It's enough to be able to cook one dish."
Shu Yao smiled and pushed him: "Eat it, it's almost cold."
Shen Ye touched the edge of the bowl and sighed softly: "It's too hot, let it cool for five minutes."
"No way."
Shu Yao was about to reach out and touch her, but her waist was firmly grasped by both hands. Before she could react, she was held by Shen Ye and sat on the dining table.
Her legs were forced open and Shen Ye's body squeezed in.
Shu Yao had no place to retreat, and he understood the situation.
I accidentally spilled milk on myself, so I have to take another shower.
The result was that he dragged her to and fro in the bathroom for almost two hours, so much so that that night, in Shu Yao's dreams, her palms seemed to feel the wet and cold touch of the bathroom tiles.
Now the porridge is too hot and needs to cool down for five minutes.
I clearly wanted to kiss for five minutes.
She muttered silently, "You could have just said you wanted to kiss me, but you still had to find an excuse."
"Can you just say it directly?" Chen Ye leaned closer to her ear, his intention frank and direct, "Then I still want to do it."
How could Shu Yao not understand, but she finally got a day off and really didn't want to spend it in bed, so she decided not to indulge him this time.
She pushed him back, jumped off the dining table nimbly, and pretended not to understand: "Okay, then you cook dinner."
“…” Shen Ye sat down angrily, picked up the spoon, and asked casually: “Anything going on tonight?”
Shu Yao's face turned red!
She was embarrassed and annoyed: "Can you think of something else?"
Shen Ye seemed to be stunned by her words, and then laughed out loud: "When I said whether I was free, I meant to take you somewhere. Who can't think of anything else?"
"..." Shu Yao took a sip of milk to hide his guilty conscience, "Where are you going?"
“You’ll find out in a moment.”
Shu Yao thought he was taking her on a date, but as the car drove north, Shu Yao gradually felt in the night that this road seemed a little familiar.
She looked at the road sign outside and recalled for a moment, and finally remembered, isn't this the road to the amusement park during New Year's Eve?
Shu Yao looked at Shen Ye in surprise: "Are we going to the amusement park?"
Shen Ye: “Yeah.”
"It's not New Year's Eve..." Shu Yao was stunned for a moment, then understood his intention.
It was probably because of the interrupted kiss that day.
She pursed her lips and discussed with him hesitantly: "Why don't you not go... It's just a legend, it's definitely not true."
There was a red light ahead. Shen Ye slowly stopped the car, looked sideways at her, and understood clearly: "Are you scared?"
"I..." Shu Yao sighed silently, "I'm not a superstitious person, but things never happen more than three times. I feel like the amusement park is against me."
"Thirds of a time?"
"The first time was when we graduated from high school, Tiantian said she'd wait until my birthday to go, and then you beat up Zhou Beichuan and went abroad. The second time, I wanted to confess my feelings to you at the amusement park, but we were surrounded by the owner of a knock-off store. The third time, I finally got there, but your brother..."
Chen Ye smiled and touched the back of her head, picked up his phone and opened WeChat. Two seconds later, his grandmother's slightly out-of-tune singing voice suddenly came from the phone:
"I am afraid of ghosts, but they haven't hurt me at all. I am not afraid of people, but they have hurt me all over..."
Shu Yao was speechless for a moment: "Does grandma know that you secretly recorded this?"
Shen Ye took the phone back as a matter of course: “If you don’t tell her, she won’t know.”
Shu Yao: “…”
She knew what he wanted to say. He wanted to say that the bad things he had encountered before had nothing to do with the amusement park. Even if he didn't decide to go to the amusement park, they would still happen.
Shu Yao compromised, but still concentrated and calmed himself, silently repeating the word "materialism" three times in his mind.
Maybe it was because New Year’s Eve had passed, or maybe it was because the weather was just too cold, but the line for the Ferris wheel was much shorter that night.
It wasn't long before it was their turn.
Originally, we were supposed to ride the Ferris wheel to enjoy the night view and have a kiss, but now it seems like we came here specifically for the kiss.
This feeling is very strange.
It was like a sudden exam during his school days, which made Shu Yao straighten his back as if facing a formidable enemy.
"Do you want to turn off your phone?" she asked seriously.
Shen Ye was amused by her. He did not answer. His right hand gently stroked the back of her head, but the kiss fell directly.
At this moment, the Ferris wheel had turned less than a quarter of its way.
He closed his eyes and was gentle at first, grinding his lips slowly and steadily, as if he was tasting the sugar coating on a candy.
But gradually, he began to be dissatisfied with this superficial kiss, and the kiss became more and more intense.
Shu Yao instinctively leaned back and was pushed into the corner. Although he had support behind him, his heart seemed to be hanging in the air like a Ferris wheel.
The ambiguous sound was infinitely amplified in the quiet atmosphere. Shu Yao's right hand unconsciously wrapped around his neck. The only remaining worry was gradually soothed in this kiss.
For some reason, the Ferris wheel suddenly shook slightly. Shu Yao was startled and secretly opened his eyes a little.
The four walls of glass were filled with the night and the reflection of their kiss. She could see more clearly the tenderness between his brows.
There was no more dazzling lights outside, but Shu Yao felt as if there were fireworks blooming right in front of him.
Her lips were bitten gently, as if punishing her for being distracted. Shu Yao closed her eyes, and her heart seemed to slowly fall into a pile of soft feathers.
The Ferris wheel in Fuchuan Amusement Park takes 13 minutes and 14 seconds to complete a full rotation, which is one of the reasons why many young couples flock to it.
And Shen Ye kissed her for at least ten minutes.
She even worried at one point that the two of them would be so immersed in the ride that they wouldn't even notice the Ferris wheel had stopped, and the staff would have to knock on the window to remind them.
Fortunately, Chen Ye still had some sense and stopped before the Ferris wheel stopped.
Shu Yao only put on some simple foundation and lip balm today, and even skipped lipstick, but at this moment, her lips were so red and moist, as if they were painted with the most vivid color.
Shu Yao pursed her lips and stared at him speechlessly: "The rumor is about the highest point."
The door was opened, Shen Ye tutted lightly, took her hand and stood up, without arguing, but asked seriously: "Have you ever burned incense in the temple during the New Year?"
In Nanjiang, many families have the habit of going to temples to burn incense during the New Year. Shu Meiru is no exception. She was taken there several times when she was young.
"Yes, I have." Shu Yao was confused. "What does this have to do with burning incense?"
"You can burn incense as long as you go to the temple, but why do people still rush to burn incense in the early morning and late at night just to be the first to burn incense?"
Shu Yao thought for a moment and said, "Show your sincerity."
"So—" Chen Ye turned his head and asked confidently, "Everyone will kiss at the highest point. If you don't kiss for a long time, how can you show your sincerity?"
"..." Shu Yao vaguely felt that there was something wrong with this logic.
But I can’t tell what’s wrong.
Finally, she gave up.
"Chen Ye." Shu Yao blinked and asked casually, "Do you like pancakes?"
"I haven't eaten it." Shen Ye touched the back of her hand and found it was cold, so he stuffed it into his coat pocket, "Why?"
"You can't eat it, because—" Shu Yao's lips curled up slightly, and the wickedness in his tone was like a little fox provoking, "If a puppy eats pancakes, it will talk nonsense."
Chen Ye couldn't tell whether it was a two-part allegorical saying or a cold joke, but Shu Yao seemed to have anticipated the upcoming "punishment". He secretly pulled his hand out of his pocket, picked up the matter, and ran away.
Shen Ye supported his waist with his right hand, looked at her long hair flying in the cold wind, and licked the corner of his lips helplessly, which seemed to still have the scent of her lip balm.
He followed her slowly, but saw a boy pushing the door open and walking out of a restaurant not far away.
Shu Yao only paid attention to the movements behind her and didn't look in front of her, and almost bumped into the boy.
She braked in time and said, "I'm sorry."
The boy looked young, with short brown hair and wearing a trendy sweatshirt. Even in this cold winter season, his jeans had holes in them.
The cold wind blew in, and Shu Yao tightened his coat.
The boy smiled and said, "I'm the one who's embarrassed. Didn't I scare you?"
Shu Yao felt the undisguised admiration in the boy's eyes, shook her head, and turned away.
The boy suddenly took two steps at a time, walked around to her, and said sincerely, "Although it's a bit presumptuous, I feel like I'll regret it after I leave if I don't say it. Can I add you on WeChat? I think you have very beautiful eyes."
Shu Yao couldn't help but wonder if these men were trained in the same way. She had heard this kind of rhetoric at least fifty times in the past few years, if not a hundred times.
She was about to speak when she suddenly felt a pressure on her shoulders.
Shen Ye's right hand was on her shoulder, holding her completely in his arms. He had a smile on his face, but his eyes were cold.
"Her husband is also very handsome, do you want to take a look too?"
