Chapter 116 The White-Cut Black-Hearted Younger Brother 16
For some reason, Xu Qiuqiu felt that she was sleeping much better at home these past two days. Maybe it was because Achen gave her warm milk every night. She had to admit that Achen was a very thoughtful person.
What she didn't know was that every night Xiao Yichen would climb into her bed, whisper sweet nothings in her ear, and then leave before she woke up.
At the dinner table, she noticed something was off; for example, she kept feeling that Yang Wan was looking at her with a complicated expression.
Because it was Sunday, Xu Qiuqiu had just finished breakfast and was about to go upstairs to look at materials and think about copywriting when she was stopped.
"Sister, are you free today?" Xiao Yichen asked, his eyes brightening slightly.
Xu Qiuqiu stopped and looked at him. "Yes, what's wrong?"
"I just wanted to ask if you're free, sister. I'd like you to keep me company..." Xiao Yichen paused, his eyes becoming melancholy. "Sister, I've never been to an amusement park before, so I wanted to ask if you're free. I wonder if you'd be willing to go with me?"
After he finished speaking, he looked at her nervously, his fingers tugging at his sleeve, as if he was particularly afraid that she would refuse.
Her heart softened under his gaze, and Xu Qiuqiu nodded. "Then wait for me, Achen. I'll go change my clothes and then go with you."
Upon hearing this answer, Xiao Yichen's eyes instantly brightened, and his brows relaxed. "Yes, sister, I'll wait for you."
Seeing Xiao Yichen's face light up with a smile, Xu Qiuqiu smiled too. Just a moment ago she looked bitter and resentful, but now she was all smiles. She was like a child, easily satisfied.
Watching Xu Qiuqiu's retreating figure as she went upstairs, Xiao Yichen thought to himself, "It's really easy to fool people with this mask on. Since Sister Qiuqiu likes it, I'll keep playing the part."
Because it was the weekend, the amusement park was quite crowded, but most of the people there were children and their parents. She looked up and asked Xiao Yichen next to her, "Achen, which ride do you want to go on?"
Xiao Yichen didn't answer immediately. He was thinking about which activity would make it easier to quickly develop feelings for someone. A Ferris wheel?
His gaze fell on the haunted house not far away. He looked at Xu Qiuqiu, his eyes filled with curiosity, "Sister, shall we go play in the haunted house?"
"?" Xu Qiuqiu looked at him in confusion. Why did they start by playing in a haunted house?
"Ah Chen, are you sure?"
Xiao Yichen tugged at her sleeve, looking at her intently, as if he were pleading with her, "I'm sure, I'm sure, will you come play with me, sister?"
"All right."
Once inside the haunted house, Xiao Yichen had a good plan: when some terrifying scene appeared, his sister would definitely be so scared that she would run into his arms.
As a result, Xu Qiuqiu wasn't afraid at all along the way. He thought that since his sister wasn't afraid, then he could be afraid too.
Suddenly, a ghostly figure appeared in front of them. Xiao Yichen grabbed Xu Qiuqiu's hand, his voice trembling, "Sister, it's so scary..."
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, it's all fake." Xu Qiuqiu looked at his pale face and said with heartache, "How about we stop playing and go outside?"
"It's okay, sister, I suddenly don't find it so scary anymore." Xiao Yichen gripped her hand tighter, feeling quite unhappy. Why was it different from what he had expected?
The two entered a room, and then another ghostly figure appeared. Xiao Yichen suddenly hugged Xu Qiuqiu tightly, his body trembling slightly. "Sister, that was scary..."
Xu Qiuqiu wasn't scared of the ghost at first, but his sudden hug almost startled her. Feeling his trembling body, she knew he was terrified, so she gently patted his back, "Achen, don't be afraid, it's alright now."
After a long while, she finally waited for Xiao Yichen to come out of her arms. This time, seeing the tears glistening in his eyes, she insisted on taking him outside. She didn't plan to play anymore, afraid that he would be frightened and she would feel sorry for him.
Xiao Yichen, who was brought out, looked displeased, but when Xu Qiuqiu looked over, he instantly changed his expression, his eyes becoming wet and pitiful.
Seeing him like this, Xu Qiuqiu thought he hadn't recovered yet, so she told him to rest on the bench. Then she bought some snacks and put them on the bench.
She took out a box of ice cream, scooped out a spoonful and took a bite, then said to him, "Achen, see if there's anything you want to eat, and then think about which ride we should go on later."
Seeing the girl's lips, red from eating ice cream, Xiao Yichen's eyes flashed with a strange light, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
He placed the snacks a little behind the bench, sat closer to her, and looked at her longingly. "Sister, I want to eat what you're eating. It looks so delicious."
"Okay, then I'll go buy another one for Ah Chen." Xu Qiuqiu didn't think much of it and decided to get up and buy him another one.
Xiao Yichen grabbed her hand and said innocently, "Sister, there's no need to go to so much trouble. Can I have a taste?"
Xu Qiuqiu looked at him with some surprise, "But I've already eaten..."
"Don't you want Ah Chen to have a taste, sister?" As she spoke, Xiao Yichen's eyes became disappointed, and his face seemed to lose all its luster.
Having no other choice, Xu Qiuqiu handed him the ice cream in her hand, "Okay, okay, it's fine if Achen doesn't mind."
Xiao Yichen took a spoonful and scooped out a spoonful. He didn't really like the cool and sweet taste, but when he thought of the spoon his sister had just put in her mouth, he suddenly felt that this was the best ice cream he had ever eaten, and his ears turned red involuntarily.
Looking at the boy who seemed to have been stroked and become obedient, Xu Qiuqiu smiled and thought, "So cute."
Xiao Yichen whispered to her, "So sweet."
It was so sweet that it warmed his heart, and his mood, which had been gloomy all day, unconsciously improved a little.
Seeing how much he liked it, Xu Qiuqiu asked him, "If Achen likes it, should I go buy another one?"
"No need." Xiao Yichen licked his lips, his eyes shining as he leaned closer to her.
He suddenly leaned closer, almost touching her face before stopping. His hot breath washed over her skin, and the close proximity made her nervous; her heart raced involuntarily. "What..."
Before she could even utter the word "了", her lips were touched by a warm, soft touch.
He licked her...
Xu Qiuqiu froze, her face flushing instantly. She looked at him in surprise, her throat becoming dry and hoarse, "Achen, you..."
After licking it, the culprit left, looking completely clueless, as if he didn't understand why she had reacted so strongly. "What's wrong?"
"I just saw some ice cream on Qiuqiu's lips, so I licked it. Is there anything wrong with that?"
After saying that, he looked at her innocently, like a child who had done something wrong, "Did A-Chen do something wrong? Sister, please don't be angry with A-Chen, okay?"
"No...no," Xu Qiuqiu replied dryly.
It took her a while to come to her senses, while the boy looked at her pitifully, his fingers twisted together, looking completely lost, making it hard to blame him.
