Ye Sheng froze instantly, as if he had been electrocuted.
He felt as if his back was being burned by a red-hot iron!
The soft, elastic touch made his blood rush to his head.
Shen Shuling was jolted back to her senses by his shout, her face flushing with a mixture of embarrassment and anger.
I decided to go all the way and pinched the soft flesh on his waist hard with my fingers!
"What are you yelling about!"
She yelled defiantly, leaning her entire upper body against him: "It won't kill you to lean on me! I haven't even complained about your back being uncomfortable! What are you making such a fuss about, you grown man!"
"You...you..."
Ye Sheng was so angry at her unreasonable and blaming remarks that he almost fell off his bicycle on the spot!
He felt as if countless tiny ants were crawling on his waist where she had pinched him, a sensation that was both numb and itchy.
A strange electric current surged through his body, numbing half of him.
This...this brat!
How dare she!
Ye Sheng felt his mind was in complete chaos, and his hands, which were holding the bicycle, began to move uncontrollably, causing the front of the bicycle to draw an "S" shape on the road.
"Hey! Ride your bike properly! Are you trying to kill me?!"
Shen Shuling, standing behind him, punched him again in dissatisfaction.
This punch was weak and lacked power.
It was as if hot oil had been poured over Ye Sheng's already burning rationality.
Ye Sheng suddenly accelerated, and the bicycle sped off like an arrow along the deserted path.
The night wind howled past her ears, ruffling Shen Shuling's short hair and also stirring up Ye Sheng's already chaotic heart.
I don't know why, but when I felt her bury her face deeper into her vest, and her warm breath sprayed onto the back of my neck, I felt a surge of emotion.
Ye Sheng's heart was beating even faster than before.
Suddenly, a dark shadow darted out of the roadside bushes!
"Meow—!"
It's a frightened stray cat!
The cat was as fast as a black lightning bolt, crossing the road straight across!
"Damn! Watch out!"
Ye Sheng's pupils suddenly contracted, and almost instinctively, he gripped the brakes tightly!
The old bicycle emitted a screeching sound as the front of the bike suddenly lurched to a stop due to its immense inertia!
Shen Shuling, who was behind him, had no idea about this sudden stop!
"ah--!"
She gasped in surprise, and before she knew it, she had crashed into Ye Sheng's solid back!
"Bang!"
A solid, muffled thud!
Shen Shuling felt as if her nose and forehead had hit a metal plate, leaving her feeling numb and tingling.
Immediately afterwards, a piercing pain swept over me!
"Waaah..."
Tears welled up instantly from the pain; physiological tears swirled in her eyes, her vision blurred, and her nose stung terribly.
When Ye Sheng heard the muffled groan behind him, which sounded like a sob, his mind was instantly overwhelmed by a wave of worry and self-reproach.
"Hey! Are you alright?!"
Ye Sheng suddenly turned his head, his usually playful peach blossom eyes widening in surprise, filled with undisguised concern.
Under the moonlight, Shen Shuling was covering her nose, her little face scrunched up. Her usually bright eyes were now watery and filled with tears, like two black grapes wet by the rain, a pitiful sight.
Her long eyelashes were adorned with glistening tears, her nose was red, and her lips were pouting in grievance.
Where was the "little chili pepper" who could stand up to people like a brick wall?
It's clearly a little kitten that has suffered a great injustice and needs to be comforted.
Ye Sheng felt as if his heart had been gripped tightly by a large hand, a mixture of pain and tenderness.
"Where did you hit it? Your nose? Let me see!"
He was extremely anxious and reached out to pry her hands off.
Shen Shuling was just in a lot of pain from the impact, and her tears were just a natural reaction.
But when she saw Ye Sheng looking so nervous and almost bursting with anger, her competitive and mischievous heart instantly came alive.
Her eyes darted around, and she decided to play along. Covering her nose, she whimpered in a tearful, aggrieved voice, "It hurts...it hurts so much! Ye Sheng! You're a killer! Murdering your own 'friends'!"
"You must have broken my nose! I'm disfigured! Waaah... How am I ever going to face anyone again! I don't care! You have to take responsibility for me!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing "broken" and "disfigured," Ye Sheng was so frightened that half of his soul flew out of his body!
He no longer cared about her unreasonable words, and was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan: "Don't cry, don't cry! I...I'll take you to the hospital! Let's go now! We'll find the best doctor to see you!"
As he spoke, he was about to get back on his bicycle, wishing he could fly to the hospital in the next second.
"I'm not going!"
Shen Shuling grabbed his arm and shook her head like a rattle.
"The medicine in the hospital smells so awful, I don't want to go! My nose hurts, I'm dizzy, and my whole body aches..."
She got more and more excited as she talked, and began to accuse me from every angle: "It's all your fault! You have to compensate me!"
Ye Sheng was at his wits' end by her appearance, feeling both distressed and helpless.
Seeing her teary eyes, he knew that going to the hospital was the only option.
But when this girl starts acting up, nothing can stop her.
He was so anxious that he scratched his head and cheeks, when suddenly he seemed to remember something.
Like a magician, he carefully pulled something wrapped in oiled paper from his inner breast pocket.
Here, take it.
Ye Sheng shoved the things into Shen Shuling's hands, his cheeks slightly flushed, his eyes glancing uncomfortably elsewhere: "Don't say I didn't compensate you! Is this alright?"
"What is that?"
Shen Shuling took the oil paper package with a puzzled look; it was warm to the touch.
She slowly opened it, and a familiar, sweet, and enticing fragrance instantly filled her nostrils.
They are two roasted sweet potatoes with a crispy outer skin and a golden, oily interior!
She was stunned for a moment.
This... wasn't this just something she casually mentioned at the dinner table, "It's been so long since I've had roasted sweet potatoes from Grandpa Wang's stall at the street corner, I really miss them"?
But Ye Sheng actually remembered it?
You even... you went out of your way to buy it?
She remembered that Ye Sheng had made an excuse to go to the restroom and disappeared for a while...
So, he went to buy her roasted sweet potatoes!
He kept it in his arms the whole time, using his body heat to keep it warm.
A powerful surge of warmth instantly broke down all of Shen Shuling's defenses.
Her feigned grievances and pain vanished instantly.
Instead, a surge of genuine emotion welled up within us.
This time, she really couldn't hold back her tears, and they fell down in a steady stream.
This really terrified Ye Sheng.
