Chapter 37 Ferris Wheel
Bai Zhenzhu, who said she wanted everyone to live in peace, truly kept her word.
Surprisingly, he didn't bother Shi Jin for over a month.
The relationship between Shi Jin and Li Qianni appears unpredictable on the surface, but in reality, Shi Jin always feels a little awkward and absent-minded whenever they interact.
"Shi Jin, let's go to the amusement park tomorrow. I watched a Korean drama yesterday, and the male and female leads rode a Ferris wheel. I really want to ride one too. Will you come with me?"
Li Qianni waited expectantly for Shi Jin's reply on the other end of the phone, and Shi Jin did not disappoint her, answering readily:
"Okay, I'll pick you up tomorrow."
After hanging up the phone, Shi Jin turned to look at Qin Shen, who had been acting strangely lately.
He called out, "Qin Shen, let's go eat."
Qin Shen didn't answer, but just grinned foolishly at his phone screen.
This is Qin Shen's recent normal state.
Shi Jin called him again helplessly, "Qin Shen! Go eat!"
Qin Shen only then heard this, his smile still lingering on his face, and he stared blankly at Shi Jin, "Young Master Shi, what are you saying?"
Shi Jin let out a heavy sigh, gritted his teeth, and said, "I said let's go eat!"
"Young Master Shi, wait for me a moment. I'll be with you after I reply to your WeChat message."
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Shen started fiddling with his phone again.
Shi Jin strongly suspected that Qin Shen was in love.
So while Qin Shen was focused on replying to WeChat messages, he quietly walked behind Qin Shen and looked down to check his phone.
He saw Qin Shen reply, "See you tomorrow, goddess."
Just as Qin Shen was about to check who the WeChat name belonged to, he quickly turned off his phone.
He gave Shi Jin an awkward smile.
"Young Master Shi, why are you peeking at my WeChat messages?!"
"I wasn't peeking, I was looking openly. I just wanted to see which blind girl had you so infatuated that you didn't even realize you were hungry at mealtimes?"
"Hehe, Young Master Shi, stop joking with me. Let's go eat."
Shi Jin knew Qin Shen quite well; Qin Shen's reaction just now was very unnatural, and even a little guilty.
But Qin Shen used to be very open and generous when he was dating, and he had never been so timid and hesitant before.
Is he talking to a wanted criminal?
...
The next day, Shi Jin picked up Li Qianni from school and then drove to Disneyland.
This was Shi Jin's first time visiting a place like this.
He's a straight man, and to be honest, he's not really interested in places like this; he always thinks they're too girly.
But Li Qianni seemed very excited, talking non-stop the whole way.
She also bought two Mickey Mouse headbands and insisted that Shi Jin wear them too.
Looking at Li Qianni's expectant eyes, Shi Jin couldn't bear to refuse, so he reluctantly put it on, but he still felt something was off.
"Shi Jin, let's go ride the Ferris wheel! It's not crowded now, so we don't have to wait in line."
Shi Jin was pulled onto the Ferris wheel by Li Qianni.
Li Qianni was busy taking selfies, while he was looking out the window out of boredom.
Suddenly, a familiar figure—no, two familiar figures—appeared in his line of sight.
He saw Bai Zhenzhu and Qin Shen in a Ferris wheel right across from them!
The two appeared to be taking selfies and looked quite intimate.
No wonder Qin Shen got up early this morning for the first time ever, even got his hair done and put on perfume. Turns out he came on a date!
But how could his date be Bai Zhenzhu!
He felt his friendship was facing a serious challenge.
So he immediately took out his phone and called Qin Shen.
He watched as Qin Shen took the phone out of his pocket, frowned, then turned it off and put it back in his pocket.
He glared angrily at Qin Shen opposite him, but unexpectedly, the next second, Bai Zhenzhu seemed to sense his chilling gaze and suddenly turned her head away.
I looked into his eyes from a distance.
Her eyes were defiant, and the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, exuding arrogance and disdain.
"Shi Jin? Could you take a picture for me?"
At this moment, Li Qianni sat down and grabbed Shi Jin's arm, acting coquettishly.
Shi Jin then withdrew his cold gaze, forced a passable smile, took the phone from Li Qianni's hand, and began taking pictures of her.
After taking two photos, Shi Jin tried to find Bai Zhenzhu and Qin Shen again, only to discover that they had already gone downstairs.
Because of this little incident, Shi Jin was preoccupied all day, constantly thinking about Bai Zhenzhu's sarcastic smile on the Ferris wheel.
He didn't know what was wrong with him; he was clearly enjoying himself, but his thoughts kept drifting to Bai Zhenzhu.
That evening, after the two finished dinner, Shi Jin escorted Li Qianni back to her dormitory.
But instead of rushing back to school, he sat in the car, playing with a lighter.
After thinking quietly for more than ten minutes, he took out his phone and called Bai Zhenzhu.
Bai Zhenzhu had just returned not long ago and was resting in bed, exhausted.
She wasn't shocked when she saw Shi Jin's call; it was as if she had expected it all.
She answered the phone calmly.
A lazy voice rang out: "Hello? Who is this?"
Shi Jin sneered. Was she pretending not to know him?
"Bai Zhenzhu, come downstairs, I have something to tell you."
"Oh, it's Shi Jin, whom I haven't seen in a long time! You can say what you want to say over the phone. After all, I said I wouldn't appear in front of you again, and I don't want to be a person who breaks his promise."
She deliberately spoke in a nonchalant tone, and every word she uttered sounded incredibly irritating.
"White Pearl, I'll give you two choices: you come down, or I'll come up."
He commanded in a tone that commanded respect and left no room for argument.
She smiled knowingly, then feigned fear and said, "Alright then, I'll go down now."
Bai Zhenzhu didn't really care whether he was angry or not, or whether he came up to her.
I was just playing along with him.
She changed into a white, low-cut, silk spaghetti strap nightgown, layered with a beige shirt, and went downstairs with her hair down.
This kind of outfit is common in girls' dormitories, but dressing like this to meet boys would be too sexy and alluring.
When Jin saw Bai Zhenzhu get into his car dressed like that, he instantly felt his blood rush to his head, his whole body felt unbearably hot, his Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and he felt like he couldn't suppress the breath he was holding in.
Especially when he lowered his head, his gaze fell directly on the soft, white pearl that was about to burst out, and he almost had a nosebleed.
He quickly looked away, glancing sideways at the windshield, and said in a feignedly indifferent and calm tone, "Bai Zhenzhu, why did you seduce Qin Shen? What is your purpose?"
Bai Zhenzhu looked at Shi Jin's "gentlemanly" appearance with amusement, stretched out her finger, hooked his chin, and forcefully turned his face to meet her gaze.
"Shi Jin, am I really that beautiful, that you can't resist me, and you don't even dare to look at me?"
Shi Jin's cold gaze fell into her overly clear and bright doe eyes, and his heart suddenly clenched, feeling slightly tense.
He admitted that white pearls are indeed beautiful and very alluring.
But he wouldn't be fooled by her beauty. He knew that White Pearl was a honey-coated poppy, addictive yet capable of destroying him.
He said calmly and in a composed voice, "In my eyes, Qianni is the most beautiful woman. The others, well, they're nothing special..."
He scoffed, a contemptuous curve at the corner of his mouth.
Not only was his smile contemptuous, but his eyes were also filled with daggers, and he shrugged nonchalantly.
Even if Bai Zhenzhu didn't like Shi Jin, she would still feel uncomfortable being ridiculed to her face by a man.
She simply couldn't believe that any man would find her unattractive.
So she turned around and straddled Shi Jin's lap, instantly wrapping her arms around his neck and pressing her body tightly against him.
The soft, tender flesh touched his chest unintentionally, sending a shiver through him; it was burning hot.
Shi Jin was shocked by Bai Zhenzhu's boldness. Her breath caught in her throat, and it felt like a bomb had exploded in her heart, a bomb filled with candy.
He wanted to push her away, but found himself drawn to her unique milky scent and the faint fragrance of her shower gel...
My body inexplicably froze in place.
"Shi Jin, do you still think I'm nothing special?"
She continued to boldly provoke and seduce him, even slightly straightening up and breathing into his ear.
Shi Jin suddenly broke out in a cold sweat. He could no longer hold back his suppressed emotions. He grabbed her slender waist with one hand and pinched her chin with the other, then kissed her fiercely...
A smile played on Bai Zhenzhu's lips as she thought to herself: See? My dog has finally recognized his owner!
