"Peng––––" The Ferris Wheel issued a burst of sound. The two people did not react to the sudden noise and continued to stare at each other, an invisible pressure enveloped the entire capsule.
At that moment, the Ferris wheel reached its highest peak like it is capable of reaching the sun.
Du Yu Shu silently stared at him, and he silently stared at her as well.
Silent, cold, calm, and dark.
No one spoke.
The silence spread.
After a long time, while Ye Jing An was staring into Du Yu Shu's cold gaze, he heard her indifferently said, "I am honored."
Du Yu Shu was the first to break the silence. She spoke calmly and coolly, her face frigid with no trace of happiness.
Du Yu Shu's brain seemed to have forgotten how to operate.
She felt some blankness, some excitement, some joy, some ignorance and the urge to cry out loud in joy.
But she had already stifled her feelings, she even said out loud, I am honored.
Indeed, this is really her honor ah, look how happy she is.
–––Look, Ye Jing An, what were you expecting?
She had never liked you, she would not show a happy expression.
She does not like you, what are you happy about?
Ye Jing An softly laughed. The Ferris wheel was quiet save for the two people's breathing. He chuckled, "Have you calmed down?"
"It seems what Wei Meng said was helpful, nothing is easier in calming someone down than a sudden confession."
Ye Jing An said it nonchalantly but also indirectly explained why he said those words earlier. Du Yu Shu just thought that at that moment,
"Peng––––"
The Ferris wheel steadily came to a stop and they continued to stare at each other while standing.
When the staff came to open the door, he noticed that the atmosphere is wrong between the two, his eyes revealing a trace of gossip.
Did they fight? Did they fight in the Ferris wheel?
The staff opened the door and Du Yu Shu took the lead to come down. She looked up at the sky, the sky is so broad, it could hold all of you.
Still in a trance, she heard Ye Jing An's voice.
Du Yu Shu exposed a sliver of a smile.
Ye Jing An slowly walked in front of her and whispered, "Du Yu Shu, do you think we are considered friends?"
Du Yu Shu didn't speak. Just when he thought that she wouldn't answer, he saw her expose a shallow smile, "Of course."
"If not, why would I come out with you or make a bet with you?"
"Tomorrow is the final mission right?" Du Yu Shu smiled and slowly said, "Emperor Ye, I will not show mercy."
"For example, making you run 100 meters stark naked."
That was the last memory of the night. On the road back, they did not speak. Du Yu Shu looked to be tired and closed her eyes the entire ride.
That night, Ye Jing An went to the florist shop alone to get the eleven champagne roses.
Ye Jing An thought, he was really too impulsive today.
That was the first time that Ye Jing An had spoken everything that was on his mind. He wants to talk to someone, preferably a stranger, about his story and his love.
But at nine o'clock, Ye Jing An suddenly receive a message on WeChat.
It was from Du Yu Shu.
"Are you asleep?"
After thinking for a long time, Ye Jing An replied, "No [Cute]"
After that, he didn't receive a reply from Du Yu Shu. Worried, he sent another message, "What is it? Afraid? [Digs nose]"
If it was like usual, Du Yu Shu would've argued with him at this point.
Ye Jing An slightly smiled.
Still, no answer. Ye Jing An furrowed his brows, feeling a bit panicked.
He contemplated for a long time and went downstairs and knocked on Du Yu Shu's door.
After waiting for so long, no one came to answer the door. Ye Jing An's unease had reached its peak and he knocked once again.
This time, someone finally opened the door. He heard a lazy voice ask, "Who is it?"
There was an unspeakable charm in that languid and rather husky voice.
"Emperor Ye?" Du Yu Shu raised a brow, "Do you need something?"
"How much wine did you drink!" Ye Jing An helplessly asked. He hasn't even entered the room yet but he could already smell the fragrance of the wine emitting from Du Yu Shu. If he remembered correctly, Du Yu Shu has a low alcohol tolerance so why did she drink so much?
"What's it to you?" Du Yu Shu disdainfully smiled and let him in before closing the door.
"Emperor Ye, do you need something?" Du Yu Shu lazily ask.
She stood unsteadily and staggered a bit. Ye Jing An hurried to help her and brought her to sit down on the sofa, "The director asked me to explain some things, how much did you drink?"
"Two or three cups. Couldn't sleep so I thought this would help." Du Yu Shu propped her head with her hand and casually said.
She probably drank a little too much, her head hurts.
"What exactly is the matter?" Du Yu Shu looked at him with her bright watery eyes. Because of her sitting position, a sliver of her white neck was exposed. Although her voice was husky, there was some attractiveness to it.
Ye Jing An's eyes were slightly deep and calmly asked as if nothing happened, "Why did you send me that message earlier?"
"Ah?" There was some confusion in her glittering eyes. Du Yu Shu casually waved her hand, "Probably sent it by accident, it was probably for Wang Jie."
The room was silent again.
Du Yu Shu felt her head spinning, "If there is nothing else, you can leave."
She wants to sleep.
"Ye Jing An, " Du Yu Shu suddenly asked, her watery eyes exposed a trace of vacancy, "What you said this afternoon, is it true?"
Ye Jing An heard his heart loudly beat. He turned around and look at Du Yu Shu and deeply asked, "Which part?"
His voice was like a hundred-year-old wine, there is a strong aroma of charm. Although he only spoke those two words, there was an indescribable temptation.
Du Yu Shu is really drunk.
"You said.... . you like me."
"Peng––––"
Ye Jing An could almost hear the sound of fireworks bursting, beautiful, smooth and bright.
"You're lying......" Du Yu Shu murmured, "You have a girlfriend, you were lying to me."
"I didn't, " Ye Jing An slowly approached her, and said in a low tempting voice, "I don't have a girlfriend."
"I only have you."
That gentle voice could make people feel intoxicated.
"You do, you and Xia Ning Hua...." Du Yu Shu's head was a mess, "Chen Chen has an ambiguous photo of you and Xia Ning Hus.... ."
......
Ye Jing An took a deep breath and whispered, "Let me have a look."
How could he have anything to do with Xia Ning Hua?!
Du Yu Shu picked up her phone from the bed. From one look, Ye Jing An could tell that that phone and the one that Du Yu Shu usually uses are not the same. Du Yu Shu opened her photo album and clicked on a photo.
The lights were dimmed. The man is washing his hands while the woman hugs him from behind. The man's gentle smiled while the woman's expression was charming. It looks to be an ambiguous scene.
–––––That is him and Xia Ning Hua.
Ye Jing An scoffed and took the phone from her hand, "Where did you get this from?"
"Chen Chen gave it to me, " Du Yu Shu looked away. She rubbed her temples, feeling dizzier and dizzier.
Ye Jing An's heart turn a full circle and then looked at Du Yu Shu seriously, "Do you believe me?"
Ye Jing An's face appeared in front of her. Those pair of peach blossoms eyes stared at her with complicated emotions which Du Yu Shu didn't understand but she really likes that pair of eyes.
"En...." She subconsciously nodded.
"Do you like me?" Ye Jing An smiled at her, his eyes bright and dazzling like a star.
"Like.... ." Du Yu Shu lowly and hazily replied, "Like you...."
"I like you." Seeing this supple Du Yu Shu, a warm feeling filled his chest. He softly repeated in her ears, "I like you, Shu Shu."
"I like you, Shu Shu, really."
Du Yu Shu stared at him blankly. Ye Jing An went forward and place a soft kiss on her lips.
Soft lips with a sweet taste, softening his heart.
"Let's be together, okay?"
"......... wuuu."
"I like you, Shu Shu."
This voice accompanied Du Yu Shu into her dreams.
At 10 o'clock the next morning, Du Yu Shu rubbed her throbbing temples and sat up on the bed.
If she had known earlier, she wouldn't have drunk those two glasses of wine yesterday. Du Yu Shu painfully thought, now she has a terrible headache and doesn't have the strength to get up.
Fortunately, she was not hungry so she has no intention of getting out of bed. Du Yu Shu subconsciously went to find her phone. She slightly turned her waist and leaned against the bedside table and opened Weibo.
Number one on the trending topics on Weibo
–––––#Xia Ning Hua And Ye Jing An's Suspected Love Affair#
Her phone slipped from her hand and fell on the bed. Her forehead began to throb in pain and those words appeared in her brain.
"I like you, Shu Shu...."
"Let's be together......"
As well as that soft kiss.
Yesterday's scene played in her mind. At this moment, the doorbell rang.
