Chapter 50: Frightened, just like the male ghost, frightened him. ...
Shi Shang went to the locker room to retrieve her cotton jacket and stepped onto the deck alone.
The cruise ship had already left the harbor and was slowly sailing forward. Its silvery white hull cut through the calm sea like a blade, leaving the dimly lit city far behind.
Shi Shang walked around the open-air bar on the deck, strolled around casually, and finally stopped in a secluded corner. She leaned her elbows on the railing and quietly looked at the distant horizon.
Soon, the last trace of purple sunset disappeared in the sky, and the evening stars above began to twinkle brightly, like broken diamonds in a silver-blue velvet cloth.
The sea breeze whistled across her cheeks, messing up Shi Shang's hair and revealing her smooth and white forehead.
He closed his eyes, exhaled deeply, and the nausea that had been lingering in his chest gradually disappeared.
But he didn't want to go back to the banquet hall yet.
When Shi Shang closed her eyes, Lu Tinghe's eyes appeared in her mind.
The usually gentle fox eyes flashed with a dark light, and their gaze passed through the crowd and locked onto him accurately.
When I thought of the look he gave me, my heart felt like an electric current was passing through it, making it numb and tingling, and even my heartbeat became abnormal.
To be precise, ever since I knew Lu Tinghe would fall in love and have close contact with others.
His whole heart felt depressed, uncomfortable and strange, and he no longer seemed like himself.
Shi Shang didn't even have the interest to look for food reserves as she had imagined.
He still didn't know how to face Lu Tinghe.
So before the meeting, I subconsciously chose to escape.
Night falls. Although the weather is sunny tonight, it is already November and winter is about to come. The sea breeze is noticeably damp and cold.
After a while, Shi Shang's face turned red due to the wind.
The cotton jacket I wore on the outside was a bit too big and not close-fitting. Even with the zipper zipped up, the cold wind still flowed into my body through the gaps.
A chill came over her, and Shi Shang rubbed her arms vigorously.
It’s so cold, why don’t you go inside?
Shi Shang had just come up with this thought and had not yet taken a step when an arm suddenly crossed his waist, pressed the palm of his hand on his lower abdomen, and pulled him back with a little force.
Shi Shang was caught off guard, staggered twice, and her back pressed against the strong chest, and she was completely embraced by the arms of the person behind her.
Shi Shang:!!!
Is there a pervert?!
He was suddenly startled, bent his elbows and stabbed back a few times, twisting his shoulders vigorously, trying to break free from the man's arms.
The next moment, a familiar scent suddenly lingered in my nose.
The fragrance of lily of the valley, with a faint bitter taste, weaved an airtight net behind her, wrapping Shi Shang tightly and making her unable to move.
Shi Shang's stiff back suddenly softened, and her bent arms slowly lowered and fell to her sides.
The body recognized him before the mind did.
The person behind is Lu Tinghe.
The man's body temperature was always very high, and the warm chest transferred heat to him. Every part of his body was wrapped in the familiar hot breath, and the chill was quickly dispelled.
As my consciousness calmed down, new questions arose.
How did Lu Tinghe know that he was here?
Also, when he came over, there was no sound at all.
Just like a male ghost.
He was scared.
Shi Shang pursed her lips, but before she could speak, she heard Lu Tinghe's warm breath in her ears, "Shang Shang, it's been a long time since we last met. I missed you so much."
“It’s so uncomfortable…”
A muffled groan escaped from his throat, and there was an obvious hoarseness in his voice.
Although Lu Tinghe's expression could not be seen in this posture, Shi Shang's mind immediately appeared to his pale and weak face.
Shi Shang, Shi Shang, your good friend is sick and feeling miserable. How can you avoid him just because of some weird thoughts of yours?
This is not what good friends should do at all.
The awkward feeling that had been hanging over my heart dissipated a little.
But she still didn't dare to meet his eyes. Shi Shang hesitated, didn't look up, and asked softly: "Now, are you feeling better?"
Lu Tinghe calmly tightened his arms and chuckled, "It's much more comfortable with Shang Shang here."
Shi Shang breathed a sigh of relief and muttered softly, "Lu Tinghe, you scared me just now."
Complaints and grievances, the upward ending sound is more like acting coquettishly rather than blaming.
Where Shi Shang couldn't see, Lu Tinghe smiled silently, his pupils flickering with dark fire.
The man said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I was too excited and lost my composure. Shang Shang, please don't be angry with me, okay?"
"I'm not angry." Shi Shang replied sullenly.
Rather than being angry with Lu Tinghe, he seemed more angry with himself.
I was angry about why I cared so much about Lu Tinghe and even interfered with his love life.
"Really?" the man smiled.
Shi Shang felt an itchy tingling sensation on the side of his neck. The person behind him lowered his head familiarly, buried his head in the crook of his neck, and pointed his straight nose at his shoulder, rubbing it back and forth.
"Then why didn't Shang Shang come to find me just now? I was the first one to notice Shang Shang. But Shang Shang was so happy chatting with others that she didn't even bother to look at me."
There was a hint of grievance in his hoarse voice, "Shang Shang has made new friends, so you don't want me anymore?"
If Shi Shang looked up at this moment, she would have discovered that veins were faintly visible on the side of the man's neck, and a thick and dark color was rolling in his eyes that was inconsistent with his grievance.
Shi Shang:!
"No," he hesitated, feeling guilty, "it's just that there are so many people around you...it's not easy for me to come over."
"But there are so many people here, I just want to see Shang Shang."
Lu Tinghe placed his chin on Shi Shang's shoulder, tightened his arms, and embraced him in his arms.
He spoke softly, emphasizing each word: "Shangshang, you are different from them."
Shi Shang leaned silently in his arms, letting her body be infected by the other party's passionate questions.
After a while, he bit his lip and couldn't help asking for confirmation: "Is it different because I can help you cure your illness?"
The worries that had troubled Shi Shang for several days finally surfaced.
Lu Tinghe is friends with him and treats him so well.
Just because, he can help him cure his skin hunger?
What if there is another person who can cure his illness, will Lu Tinghe treat him the same way?
Shi Shang had not yet realized that his possessiveness of Lu Tinghe had already exceeded the boundaries of food.
The smile rolling in Lu Tinghe's chest made Shi Shang's back tremble.
After a while, Shi Shang heard Lu Tinghe say, "No. Because Shang Shang is different from others, that's why it works on me."
The warm breath wrapped in the cool night breeze brought the man's low and magnetic voice into my ears.
It’s different from others, so it works...
Shi Shang was successfully confused and couldn't help but break free from Lu Tinghe's arms and turned to look at Lu Tinghe.
"Shang Shang," Lu Tinghe lowered his eyes to look at the young man's ignorant black eyes, his lips curved, and he spoke seriously, "To me, you are the most special one."
"You can do whatever you want to me."
When their eyes met, Shi Shang's heart skipped a beat, and then began beating violently in her chest at a frequency far exceeding usual.
The blue hour descended silently upon this sea, and the evening stars in the sky grew brighter.
The evening breeze was blowing, and the boy's eyes were sparkling with tears, as if the stars in the sky were falling into his eyes.
Lu Tinghe's eyes darkened, and his protruding Adam's apple pressed down.
Shi Shang opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say. His eyelashes trembled violently, and his eyes unconsciously fixed on the other person's lips.
My heart was pounding and a wave of thirst suddenly rose to my throat.
Think, think...
What are you thinking about.
Shi Shang didn't know either.
He just followed his body's instinct, pursed his lips, slowly stood on tiptoe, and moved closer to those thin lips.
"Shangshang, Shangshang, are you here?"
Lin Zhuoran walked onto the deck and the sea breeze blowing in his face made him shiver.
Not seeing his friend and not getting any response from him, Lin Zhuoran shrank his neck and took a few more steps around.
He continued shouting while turning up the volume as he walked.
He walked around the brightly lit terrace and saw Shi Shang coming out from a passage on the left with her head lowered.
"Shang Shang, why are you here?" Lin Zhuoran hurriedly went to meet her, feeling curious and worried.
"I waited for you in the lobby for a long time and sent you a message, but you didn't reply. I thought something had happened."
Shi Shang apologized, "I'm sorry, Ranran, my phone was in my bag, so I might not have noticed the vibration."
"It's okay." Lin Zhuoran stared at him for a while, frowned, and asked, "Shangshang, why is your face so red?"
"Ah." Shi Shang raised her head and rubbed her face. When her fingertips touched her lips, her movements paused noticeably.
He pulled the corners of his mouth stiffly and reluctantly found an excuse, "Maybe it's because I stayed outside for too long and the sea breeze blew."
Shi Shang's skin was indeed very sensitive, but Lin Zhuoran didn't take it seriously.
The two walked towards the banquet hall, and Lin Zhuoran said excitedly: "Shang Shang, you have no idea who I just met?"
Shi Shang: "Who is it?"
"Lin Yuelang! You wouldn't have guessed it," Lin Zhuoran chuckled, "In person, he's just as handsome and gentlemanly as he is online! Although we can't take photos on the cruise ship, he still signed an autograph for me. Ahhhhh, so excited..."
Shi Shang hummed twice absentmindedly. Lin Zhuoran was still immersed in the excitement of successfully chasing his idol. He was dancing with joy and didn't notice anything wrong with his friend.
Back in the banquet hall, the dinner was almost over.
The waiter pushed up a five-layer birthday cake. Liu Yu symbolically cut a piece, blew out the candles and made a wish amid everyone's blessings.
After eating the cake, the cruise ship docked again. It was almost nine o'clock.
Shi Shang still had classes tomorrow and had to get back to school before the dormitory curfew, so she had to say goodbye to Liu Yu.
Liu Yu was reluctant to leave: "What a pity! I finally got to meet Xiao Shichang. I wanted to keep you on the cruise ship for a few nights. I forgot you still have classes."
"But it's so late, how are you going to get back to school? Otherwise, I'll find a driver."
Shi Shang smiled and said, "It's okay, Senior Liu. I'll go back with my classmates later."
In fact, Lin Zhuoran has no classes tomorrow, his home is nearby, and he doesn’t plan to go back to school tonight.
Shi Shang didn't want to trouble her friend to go with him again, so she planned to leave the port and take the subway back to school by herself.
Liu Yu didn't think much about it, "Then be careful when you go back, and let me know you're safe when you get to school."
Shi Shang nodded obediently: "Okay."
After saying goodbye to Liu Yu, Shi Shang sent a message to Lin Zhuoran who was going to the parking lot, and walked out alone.
Shi Shang took out her cell phone and clicked on the navigation without looking at it carefully.
A familiar black car suddenly stopped in front of him.
The car window rolled down, revealing Lu Tinghe's elegant features.
The man curled his eyes, his tone half teasing and half helpless, "Shang Shang is obviously a little rabbit, she slipped away without you noticing."
