Zhou Yunwan felt inexplicably nervous, but then she thought again, she was going there as a "sister" and not a "girlfriend", so there was no need to feel any burden.
And to some extent, it is easier to get to know each other when people of the same age get together. Of course, she wants to have a good relationship with Xing Maohui's sister. It is better to have a school companion than not. As for whether they can become good friends, it depends on whether their personalities are compatible.
So she agreed without much thought.
The party was organized by Tan Yinghao and the venue was set at his home. The group discussed it over the phone and decided to go ice skating at Shichahai near Tan Yinghao's home for some entertainment.
The weather was relatively cold, which was best suited for driving out, but considering that Tan Yinghao's home was in an alley and parking was difficult, they had to settle for the next best thing and choose to ride a bicycle.
Zhou Yunwan walked out of the porch and a cold wind blew, making her shiver all over. It was so cold!
She reached out to gather the scarf around her neck, and happened to see Shen Yanli moving bicycles outside the yard. He was very strong and moved one bicycle effortlessly, and was about to move the second one.
Seeing this, Zhou Yunwan couldn't help but stop him and said, "Why don't we just ride one?"
Shen Yanli paused while lifting the car, raised his head to look at her, and said seriously: “Two cars will be more convenient.”
...
...
Zhou Yunwan rolled her eyes inwardly after hearing this. Isn't it every boy's dream to ride a bicycle with the girl he likes? Does he understand what romance and thoughtfulness mean?
Zhou Yunwan stopped talking and just stared at him quietly.
After a few seconds of pause, Shen Yanli seemed to understand what she meant and said hesitantly, “Then I’ll give you a ride?”
Zhou Yunwan blinked, two shallow dimples appeared on her soft white cheeks, and she muttered, "That's more like it."
Then she smiled and said to Aunt Wang in the house: "Aunt Wang, we are going out."
Aunt Wang also responded with a smile: "Okay, go ahead and have fun."
Zhou Yunwan responded softly, and then gave Shen Yanli a look, indicating that he could leave.
Shen Yanli crossed his long legs over the car seat, and the back seat immediately sank. Then, two small hands wearing soft gloves tightly wrapped around his waist from behind. Looking down, she put her hands together and hugged him intimately.
He had always ridden his bike alone before and had never given a girl a ride, so he felt a little lost for a moment.
Zhou Yunwan also noticed his body stiffen for a moment. He seemed not to be used to such contact and subconsciously wanted to resist, but perhaps because he knew it was her sitting behind him, he did not push her away.
It seemed that since the first day of the Lunar New Year, they had not had any intimate physical contact, not even kissing or hugging. The only physical contact was that he held her hand in a hurry in the kitchen yesterday, but that could not be considered intimate.
So has he returned to his previous cold and apathetic state?
Zhou Yunwan tilted her head, leaned closer to him, and whispered teasingly: "Brother, we have kissed before, it's just hugging each other's waists, is it necessary to be so sensitive? Or are you ticklish?"
She deliberately lowered her voice, her beautiful eyes staring at him without blinking, frankly and boldly, wandering across his face without any concealment, until his face slowly turned red, and then she was willing to give up.
Shen Yanli listened to her wanton teasing words and touched the tip of his nose embarrassedly. Even if he didn't look into her eyes, he could imagine her smug look now.
The girl's soft and fragrant scent lingered in his nostrils, and his heart was inexplicably restless. The pair of hands around his waist kept tightening, and even through the clothes, it was difficult for him to ignore.
He cleared his throat and calmly changed the subject: "Are you sitting tight? We should go."
Zhou Yunwan stared at the blush on his handsome face, her eyes moving, and her red lips made a teasing voice: "I am sitting firmly, but I am afraid that my brother's heart is unstable and he can't ride the bike steadily."
Upon hearing this, Shen Yanli tightened his grip on the handlebars. To prove himself, he pedaled hard and rushed out. But he didn't know if it was affected by her words, the wheel really twisted twice before returning to a straight line.
The bicycle had just stabilized when he heard a girl's clear, bell-like laughter from behind his ears, which made his ears feel hot.
But after she finished laughing, she lay on his back, and her two soft pieces of flesh pressed against him without any warning...
He immediately felt a heat rushing through his body and almost lost his direction again.
"Brother, safety comes first. If your hands are shaking badly, I can take you for a ride."
Zhou Yunwan had no idea that he was itching to get some. He was wearing a black fur collar coat today, which was very soft. It was windproof for his tall figure, clean, smelled good and was comfortable. She couldn't help but rub her face against the warm fur.
Shen Yanli's dark eyes were dim. He took a deep breath, and the cold wind rushed into his stomach. He sobered up a little, but still didn't know what to say. She was different from every girl he knew. She could easily make his heart beat like a drum and make him lose his composure.
After a long while, he finally found his voice: "No need, I, I can do it."
"That's good." Zhou Yunwan didn't really want to give him a ride, otherwise, with Chen Yanli's physique, it would be strange if she could carry him.
She just wanted to tease him, and it was really funny and interesting to see him so shy that he couldn't speak because of her teasing.
The bicycle went through the streets and alleys, and soon entered the alley. Zhou Yunwan pulled her legs inward to avoid touching the sundries placed against the wall.
Soon, they stopped in front of a courtyard house.
After Shen Yanli parked his bicycle, he went to knock on the door, and soon a young man opened the door. He had slightly dark skin, regular features, narrow and deep eyes, and a bit of ruffian spirit between his brows.
The two seemed very familiar with each other. After chatting for a few words, the young man looked at Zhou Yunwan who was standing next to the bicycle.
Zhou Yunwan met his gaze and smiled politely in return.
Tan Yinghao was dazzled by the bright-eyed and white-toothed female comrade's smile and took a breath of cold air in disbelief. Oh my god, this girl that Chen Yanli brought back is so damn beautiful!
No wonder those brats in the army have been talking about her for so long. He heard someone talking about her just yesterday. Such a face is indeed unforgettable.
Seeing that Tan Yinghao was staring at Zhou Yunwan without responding for a long time, Shen Yanli frowned slightly and couldn't help but put his fist to his lips and coughed twice softly as a reminder.
Tan Yinghao suddenly came back to his senses, and turned his head to meet Shen Yanli’s somewhat ugly expression. Having known each other for so many years, he could tell at a glance that he was in a bad mood.
