Although Chen Bing really wanted to do it, he considered that it was in public. If he, a lewd college graduate, were to kiss a young girl while she was asleep, and if some concerned citizen took a picture of it, he would probably be expelled from the community on the spot.
We are not the kind of opportunists who would take advantage of others' misfortunes. On the contrary, Chen Bing is upright and honest, a well-known gentleman in the surrounding area.
Not only did he not take this opportunity to bully Shang Yunmiao, but he also stopped sleeping and lay down firmly to the side, gently accompanying the girl.
Ah, I'm so great! When Shang Yunmiao wakes up in a bit, I'll have to tell her to reward herself for being such a virtuous gentleman.
Thinking of this, Chen Bing casually took out his phone and took a picture of himself and the sleeping Shang Yunmiao as evidence to ask for credit and rewards later.
Okay, let's take a picture every half hour.
With this in mind, Chen Bing took six photos of Shang Yunmiao in total. Nearly three hours later, around 4 p.m., the little lazybones finally woke up.
People coming and going in the rest area had changed batch after batch. If it weren't for some event on the first floor and the sudden sound of the host's microphone going off, Chen Bing had reason to believe that Shang Yunmiao could have slept for a few more hours.
After being woken up, Shang Yunmiao rubbed her eyes and glanced at Chen Bing, who was lying next to her and watching her.
"Um... Chen Bing, when did you wake up?"
"I haven't slept at all, I've been by your side." Chen Bing stated this tender fact in his gentle voice.
Hearing such gentle words, the girl who had just woken up felt her happiness reach its peak.
"Huh? You're not asleep?" A happy smile appeared on the girl's face. She then asked Chen Bing why she wasn't asleep.
"Silly girl, if I go to sleep, what will happen to you if no one looks after you? We're in a public place. What if someone kidnaps you at this time?"
"Then I won't have a wife?" Chen Bing silently added in his mind.
While he was thinking this, Shang Yunmiao also had some inner thoughts.
I'm not a child.
After a brief internal debate, Shang Yunmiao smiled and pressed her cheek against Chen Bing's arm, looking quite happy.
After lingering like that for a while, Shang Yunmiao asked again, "So what time is it now?"
It's almost 4:30.
"Huh? Then I went to sleep..." Shang Yunmiao was taken aback, then she counted on her fingers for a moment before saying in surprise, "So I slept for three hours? Why didn't you wake me up? Weren't we supposed to go to the museum at this time..."
Anyone with a dating skill level of at least Gold knows that in situations like this, you should try to coax the girl and show her gentleness.
Chen Bing, who understood this principle well, smiled gently after hearing this. He then cupped Shang Yunmiao's cheek with one hand and stared into her dark, bright eyes as he replied, "Silly, going to a museum is nothing compared to letting you rest."
Wow! Chen Bing is so nice...
As it turned out, Chen Bing's approach was remarkably effective; even Shang Yunmiao was immediately won over by his charm.
As they spent more time together, the little girl clung to the boy's arm, deeply moved, as if she were an extension of Chen Bing.
Being snuggled up to like that by his childhood friend, Chen Bing couldn't help but feel unhappy. He even walked with more energy than usual, as if the inferiority complex brought on by his more than twenty years of being single since birth had been swept away.
To be honest, if the occasion and timing weren't so inappropriate, Chen Bing would have loved to tear Shang Yunmiao apart right now.
cough!
After snapping out of her lewd thoughts, Chen Bing realized that she had unknowingly brought Shang Yunmiao to another destination, Wenshui National Park, a little-known scenic spot in Wenzhou City. Moreover, it was a 4A-level scenic spot, and admission was free.
When I entered the park, it was nearly five o'clock in the afternoon. For summer, this time was still early, but far from sunset. Nevertheless, a few clouds had somehow appeared in the sky, nicely shielding the area from the heat and adding a touch of poetry to this Friday afternoon.
The park is built around a huge lake whose opposite shore can only be vaguely seen. On both sides of the lake, there are not only many ancient-style buildings, but also a large green lawn for people to laugh, play, and picnic.
I saw several girls, probably high school age, lying on the grass under parasols, chatting and laughing; young couples with their children, holding hands, having a family gathering; elementary school students running and playing soccer on the grass; and elderly couples supporting each other, looking very affectionate.
Yes, absolutely. Add to that me and Shang Yunmiao, this little couple, and the meadow is complete—perfect, like something out of an anime. And such a beautiful place actually exists somewhere in this world, in this city.
Chen Bing had only been searching for tourism resources in Wenzhou City online when she happened to see someone's enthusiastic recommendation post, which led her to include it in her itinerary for today.
Looking back now, it was definitely worth the trip.
With joy in their hearts, Chen Bing led little Shang Yunmiao along a cobblestone path built around the lake. The two chatted and talked about many interesting topics while admiring the surrounding scenery.
As they talked, they inevitably drifted into the topic of school starting in five days.
"School starts in a few days, Chen Bing, are you looking forward to high school life?"
"What's there to look forward to? It's just another new stage in life." At this point, Chen Bing raised her tone a bit and continued, "I'm afraid only those otaku who think they can find a partner in high school, or those who watch too much Japanese anime and think high school is wonderful, would look forward to high school. The pressure in high school in our great China is very high. In the end, it's not as easy as junior high school."
Seeing Chen Bing's indignant expression, as if she had attended high school, Shang Yunmiao covered her mouth and laughed, "It's not that exaggerated. Since I was very young, I have hoped that one day I could study at the experimental high school where my father teaches."
"Oh, right. I forgot that you are the principal's daughter. Your life will be very comfortable when you go to high school. Please don't forget to help me out then."
"What are you talking about? This is all nonsense. The school isn't owned by my family." Shang Yunmiao replied, her face flushed with dissatisfaction.
It was clear that she felt inexplicably ashamed about the fact that her father was the school principal.
