Chapter 49
The sudden winter snow fell even heavier the next day.
Snowflakes, shaped like goose feathers, fluttered down, turning the world into a pristine white expanse.
Qin Su, wrapped in her bulky ski suit, skillfully put on her helmet, gloves, and goggles.
Many people come to ski in winter, but they mostly gather on the basic slopes. There are only a few tourists on the intermediate slopes, and even fewer on the advanced slopes.
Ye Yan dismissed the VIP receptionist who had been accompanying them, then extended his hand to Qin Su and joked, "Madam, may I have the honor of inviting you to ski together?"
Qin Su raised her chin, her posture haughty: "I'll give you this honor because you're handsome."
She placed her hand in Ye Yan's warm palm.
Ye Yan gripped her hand and gently pulled her down the hillside.
The wind and snow rushed in, and Qin Su's curly hair billowed behind her like a black flag.
Ye Yan and Qin Su sped up, their snowboards kicking up walls of snow half a knee high.
Qin Su exclaimed "Whoosh!" and laughed loudly, "Not bad, Ye Yan, I didn't know you were such a master."
Ye Yan said tactfully, "Remove the word 'calculate'."
Qin Su was taken aback, then laughed even louder.
She let go of Ye Yan's hand: "Really? I don't believe it."
Ye Yan glanced at her and pursed his lips.
Even though he knew Qin Su was trying to provoke him, it's really hard for a man to not care about his behavior in front of his partner.
There was another high slope ahead, and Ye Yan pressed Qin Su's nape: "Then you stand here and watch."
Qin Su raised an eyebrow with interest.
Ye Yan confirmed her location, tightened his cuffs, and then stepped onto his skis and rushed straight down.
Amidst the swirling snow dust, Ye Yan leaped up at the point where the slope was about to slow down.
It flew cleanly and gracefully, tracing an amazing arc in mid-air, before landing steadily on the snow with a "thud".
He stopped, turned around, and waved to Qin Su.
Qin Su laughed and rushed down the slope.
Ye Yan opened his arms and hugged her tightly.
Like a kindergarten child eagerly awaiting praise, his dark eyes sparkled with a smile, and his face was full of anticipation: "How was it?"
Qin Su couldn't help but smile, grabbed his shirt on the shoulder and kissed him, saying generously, "The most handsome in the whole place, super awesome."
Ye Yan heard what he wanted to hear and immediately felt relieved.
Previously, Qin Su had taken him to try some "wild" sports like speedboats and jet skis, which he wasn't familiar with and seemed quite helpless.
Now that he finally has an outdoor sport he's good at, he's not about to let it go, showing off his skills like a peacock spreading its tail.
The two of them were exhausted from playing and collapsed on a clean patch of snow, panting.
The heavy snow continued to fall all day, drifting down like large dandelion blossoms in a misty haze.
Ye Yan and Qin Su had only been lying there for a few minutes when they were covered in snow, looking like two snowmen lying flat.
A layer of snow had settled on Qin Su's eyelashes, and when she blinked, the snowflakes fell off in a flurry.
Ye Yan was so tempted that he couldn't resist taking off his gloves and pinching it.
Qin Su said slowly, "If you break one off, you'll have to pay me ten million."
Ye Yan laughed and said, "Then you have 287 upper eyelashes, wouldn't you be able to make a lot of money?"
"Huh?" Qin Su turned her head in surprise. "How do you know how many upper eyelashes I have?"
Ye Yan was able to give such accurate figures for things that even she herself didn't understand.
"..." Ye Yan fell into a suspicious silence.
If he said that he often counts Qin Su's eyelashes while she is sleeping, would he seem like a pervert?
Fortunately, Qin Su didn't dwell on the issue. After turning her head to see Ye Yan's expression, she immediately smiled.
"I just called you an old man yesterday, and today your eyebrows and hair are all white."
Ye Yan pinched a strand of her hair and held it in front of her eyes, amused, "The pot calling the kettle black, old lady, take a closer look?"
Qin Su's jet-black hair was also covered in snow.
She shook her head, but it didn't shake off much.
Some of the snow had frozen into frost in her hair, and she could only comb it with her fingers, so Ye Yan helped her.
As he combed his hair, he suddenly laughed.
Qin Su asked, puzzled, "What are you laughing at?"
Ye Yan said, "It's nothing, I just thought of the wish I made yesterday."
"You didn't tell me, you were being so secretive," Qin Su said, displeased.
She said, "Unless you keep it from me forever, I'll find out sooner or later."
Ye Yan was helpless.
Knowing that Qin Su meant what she said, he could only reply, "Actually, it's a very ordinary wish..."
Ye Yan paused for a moment, then thought it wouldn't hurt to tell Qin Su, so he lowered his voice and said a little embarrassedly, "...What I wrote was that I hope we can grow old together."
Now, with their heads covered in snow and their eyelashes frosted with white, they really looked like they had aged prematurely.
Qin Su suddenly looked up, her eyelashes trembled, and some fine snowflakes fell from her eyes.
Outside, amidst the freezing cold, a tremendous current of warmth, invisible to ordinary people, surged from Ye Yan's body and flowed toward Qin Su.
It is Ye Yan's luck value.
When someone with a strong destiny makes a sincere wish, Qin Su can receive that person's destiny value.
When Qin Su first met Ye Yan, the system said to her, "Ye Yan seems to lack nothing, so why would he make a wish?"
Qin Su replied that everyone has desires.
She never expected that Ye Yan's wish was to grow old with her.
...
Ye Yan was still combing her hair.
Qin Su grabbed his hand and said lazily, "Never mind."
"I lost my comb, and my hair is still wet. I'll wash it when I get back to the hotel later."
Ye Yan said, "The hotel has a hot spring resort area, we can go there and soak in the hot springs."
Qin Su gave a soft humph: "Hot springs again? Am I going to soak in the hot springs or are you going to soak me?"
Last time when they were abroad, Ye Yan claimed he would take her to a hot spring, but Qin Su didn't remember what the hot spring pool was like. Instead, she remembered that the tatami mats in the hot spring room were very uncomfortable.
Ye Yan clearly remembered what happened last time and choked for a moment.
However, he became increasingly shameless in front of Qin Su, boldly asking, "Can I soak both?"
Adults, of course, want both.
Qin Su grabbed a handful of snow and threw it at him, laughing and cursing, "You should really record this and let outsiders hear what kind of scoundrel President Ye is."
Ye Yan didn't care about saving face at all: "I'm only a rogue to you."
Qin Su: "..."
"It's all over." She rolled over, looked at the sky, and muttered, "The CEO Ye who didn't even dare to look me in the eye when I was lying in bed back then, can now say such things."
Ye Yan was stunned for a moment before he remembered what she had said.
When Qin Su had just returned to China, she gave him leopard-print underwear as a gift. After he came out of the shower, she leaned against his bedside and said she wanted to check the gift.
At the time, he was clueless about love and was only confused and his heart was racing because of Qin Su's flirting. He even got up in the middle of the night to take a cold shower.
Looking back now, every smile and frown of hers was blatant flirting.
Ye Yan felt a pang of regret: "I actually let you leave like that back then."
If this were today, he would definitely pin her down on the black sheets, tear off her red dress himself, and make her carefully examine the gift.
Qin Su smiled lazily and said, "I don't know who it is, but ever since I praised the perfume that night, they've been wearing the same perfume in front of me every day."
Ye Yan's heart skipped a beat, and he couldn't help but say, "I brought a bottle in my suitcase, do you want to go back and smell it?"
Qin Su's eyes sparkled like spring sunshine: "Just smelling the perfume?"
Ye Yan moved closer to her, his breath enveloping her.
He replied in a low, hoarse voice, "You can also soak in hot springs."
Qin Su smiled slightly, her eyes flashing with a series of alluring charms that made one's throat tighten.
Ye Yan's gaze was glued to her, unable to look away.
“Okay,” Qin Su said meaningfully, “Since we have no plans for tomorrow, let’s just rest at the hotel.”
