Chapter 48
"No, just eat it." Shi Ye glanced at him calmly and reminded him, "This is the last bite."
Jiang Zhinian was shocked when she heard that. She quickly pulled Shi Ye's sleeve and protested, "Then I'll only eat three bites."
Shi Ye gave her a cold look and pointed out the truth ruthlessly: "It's hollow inside."
Okay, Jiang Zhinian gave in.
She leaned over again and opened her mouth to take a big bite, but at the critical moment, Shi Ye moved his hand and only bit off a small tip.
“I haven’t bitten it yet…”
Shi Ye raised his head and put the remaining ice cream into his mouth in three or two bites. It was so cold that he frowned.
It is too sweet.
Jiang Zhinian uttered a sigh of disappointment and looked at the egg roll in his hand.
Shi Ye handed her the egg roll: "Do you like egg rolls?"
"Uh-huh."
"Eat it." He tasted it just now and found that the egg roll was not too sweet.
Jiang Zhinian happily took it and took a few bites carefully: "Let's go out and take pictures."
Because pregnant women were not allowed to participate in many amusement facilities, the two of them simply strolled around and took photos.
When passing by a small stall nearby, Shi Ye let go of Jiang Zhinian's hand: "Wait a moment."
"What's wrong?"
Shi Ye walked to the side of the road and planned to buy a balloon.
When paying, the girls queuing around suddenly let out a small exclamation, and Shi Ye couldn't help but frown.
After paying the bill and walking back with the balloons, Jiang Zhinian suddenly understood what they were exclaiming about.
A tall, long-legged, neatly dressed boy walks towards you holding a balloon, firmly and gently.
Like the summer evening breeze and the afterglow of the setting sun, everyone has witnessed its beauty, but the tenderness and affection at this moment belongs only to you.
When Shi Ye walked up to him, Jiang Zhinian asked in surprise, "You like balloons?"
Shi Ye smiled and said, "Raise your left hand."
He lowered his head and tied the balloon to Jiang Zhinian's hand, and even tied a bow with it in a very emotional way.
"There are too many people here. If we get lost, we won't be able to find you. It's more conspicuous to tie a balloon."
Jiang Zhinian looked around and found that several children had balloons tied to their hands.
Shi Ye treats himself as a child.
"I'm not a child. I can call if I get separated."
She disliked the expensive balloons inside and was reluctant to give it away, but she also liked Shi Ye's kindness very much. When she said this, the corners of her mouth were raised.
Shi Ye took her right hand and put it in his pocket, saying seriously, "You can be a child today."
Jiang Zhinian was stunned for a moment.
It seemed like she had never been a child since she could remember. Everyone taught her to be sensible, obedient, well-behaved, not to make noise, and not to ask for things.
She was forced to grow up prematurely.
Being a child, what does it mean to be a child?
She wanted to ask Shi Ye, but suddenly a young lady's voice came from behind her.
"Hello, I'm an amusement park employee. We're having a float parade at 3 o'clock, and I'd like to invite you to be our special guests."
Jiang Zhinian turned around: "Ah... I'm sorry, this is my first time here, I don't know what to do, I might not know how..."
"It's okay, don't be nervous. There will be staff to take you there. You just sit on the float and wave to everyone."
Jiang Zhinian was a little hesitant. She actually didn't like everyone's attention.
"Shi Ye..." She turned her head and asked Shi Ye for help.
"You decide."
Shi Ye didn't care. He was not interested in being noticed by others, but he was also used to being noticed, so anything was fine with him.
The staff member finally persuaded them, "I believe this valuable experience will give you an unforgettable memory."
Unforgettable memories.
Nothing moved Jiang Zhinian more than these words.
She longed so much to be with Shi Ye and have countless precious memories, so that... even if they were separated from Shi Ye one day, when they thought of each other, their memories would be filled with happy memories.
Rather than being dull, tedious and uninteresting.
"Okay, then I'll join." The courageous voice was firm and resolute.
…
They were guided by staff to the entrance where the floats were waiting.
"You will be leaving in this car in a moment. You can wave from the car, but please be careful and don't make any big movements or jump out of the car. Our staff will guide you."
Jiang Zhinian got on the float and fastened her seat belt.
I feel a little nervous.
Shi Ye seemed very calm: "Why are you so nervous?"
"Maybe I'm afraid of being stared at." Whenever someone's eyes were focused on her, she would become inexplicably nervous and couldn't help but want to lower her head.
At graduation, she was nervous when she stood on the podium for the first time and faced a group of children who couldn't speak clearly.
Later, she found that each of these children had extremely innocent hearts. She gradually got used to it and fell in love with the feeling of being a teacher to these little kids.
It seemed that she was free only in front of them.
Shi Ye held her hand and looked forward: "If you are afraid, hold my hand tightly."
Jiang Zhinian felt the warmth coming from his palm, and his heart felt reassured.
Shi Ye is always calm and strong, as if as long as he is around, she doesn't have to worry about anything and doesn't have to be afraid.
Jiang Zhinian took a deep breath. When the float arrived, it slowly drove towards the parade route.
"Oh my god, look at that float, isn't that the guy from the internet?"
"It's him! He's an amusement park employee. I was wondering why he's so handsome. Is he a hired model for promotional purposes?"
"No way, I heard that the guests on the floats are all selected from tourists."
"How could it be such a coincidence? One foot is trending, and the next foot is making a splash. I can only say it's another successful marketing campaign."
"No matter if it's marketing or not, he's just handsome."
"The girl next to him is pretty too. Is she his girlfriend?"
"Is she pretty? Not bad. Maybe she's the model we hired together."
Jiang Zhinian could not hear the discussions around her. She could only feel the constant warmth and sense of security coming from her palm.
She turned her head to look at Shi Ye, and seeing the calmness and composure in his eyes, her heart gradually became peaceful.
It was as if Shi Ye was saying to her: "With me here, are you still afraid?"
Jiang Zhinian took a deep breath and slowly smiled, gentle and bright, as if the world had suddenly become wider, and even the wind in his ears became more comfortable and gentle than ever before.
Yes, why should she be afraid.
She clearly did nothing wrong, so why should she keep her head down and be afraid of other people's gazes? Those who slandered her, spread rumors about her and spoke ill of her should be condemned like rats crossing the street.
She doesn't have to care about what others think, just be herself.
She wants to work hard to become a better person, someone who is worthy of Shi Ye.
