Chapter 196: Fourth Brother Is Coming Home!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The two of them had experienced almost every ride at the amusement park.
From the big pendulum at the beginning to the roller coaster, to the merry-go-round, the haunted house, the spinning teacups and bumper cars.
Murong Qiao felt that she had never been so indulgent and happy. All her emotions were vented out, and she was overjoyed.
“I can’t take it anymore. I feel like my bones have been broken.” Murong Qiao waved her hand as if she had admitted defeat.
They had so much fun that even Murong Qiao couldn’t take it anymore.
It was fun, but her stamina did not allow it.
God knew that she was almost scared to death in the haunted house just now. That NPC hid so well that when she was frightened, Murong Qiao’s heart and lungs almost stopped.
“Are you hurt?” Huo Yichen looked at her worriedly.
The two of them had just gotten out of the bumper car and had bumped into each other many times. Murong Qiao only felt that she couldn’t even tell north from south.
“I’m not that delicate.” Murong Qiao chuckled.
It had to be said that she was used to being quiet. It was quite interesting for her to suddenly go crazy this once.
Especially after experiencing it with Huo Yichen, Murong Qiao found that he could always carefully discover her unspoken thoughts and then express them in a tactful way that made her feel especially comfortable.
In short, the amusement park experience was maxed out.
Then, Murong Qiao pulled him slowly to the entrance of the amusement park and saw the Ferris wheel she had seen when she first entered.
Looking at the dreamy neon lights above, Murong Qiao’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.
“Let’s take the Ferris wheel,” she said.
Of course, Huo Yichen obeyed her. He nodded and walked to the bottom of the Ferris wheel with Murong Qiao. After a round of ticket inspection, they got into the carriage.
The amusement park was a good place for creating a romantic atmosphere. Knowing that there were many couples today, he booked the entire carriage. Naturally, Huo Yichen was not short of money, so Murong Qiao and he were the only ones in their carriage.
The carriage was almost completely transparent. Sitting inside, one could clearly observe the entire city, especially when it rose to the highest point.
The view from above could be said to be excellent. This was also one of the selling points of the amusement park.
“Tourists, please sit down.” It was the voice of the radio.
As the Ferris wheel slowly started, her angle of vision gradually increased. Murong Qiao sat by the window and looked at the entire city from another angle.
There wasn’t much space in the carriage, and Huo Yichen was tall. Even though he was sitting opposite Murong Qiao, he had nowhere to straighten his long legs.
“So it’s not a good thing to be tall.” Murong Qiao teased him.
Hearing her teasing, Huo Yichen glanced at Murong Qiao helplessly. His low and hoarse voice sounded especially magnetic, the kind that made Murong Qiao blush.
Seeing Murong Qiao’s gloating smile, he simply reached out and pulled her into his arms.
“Is it still squeezy now?” Huo Yichen asked calmly.
He pretended to be frivolous and looked at Murong Qiao’s face. He happened to see a thin blush on her face, making her look especially delicate.
Murong Qiao’s face was completely red. Because of Huo Yichen’s sudden action, the two bodies that were suddenly close to each other had completely different temperatures. When the other party spoke, Murong Qiao subconsciously felt her hand shaking on Huo Yichen’s chest.
She stopped talking and pretended to punch Huo Yichen fiercely.
She didn’t use much strength, but when it landed on Huo Yichen’s body, it was more like she was acting cute.
“Do you know the legend of the Ferris wheel?” Huo Yichen continued when she didn’t answer.
He looked out at the view that rose higher and higher. “When the Ferris wheel climbs to the highest point—”
“Kissing lovers can be together forever.” Murong Qiao finished the second half of his sentence for him.
She knew about this legend from Yang Xin.
At that time when the two of them were knitting scarves, Yang Xin unintentionally mentioned this, making Murong Qiao shy.
When Huo Yichen saw that she had answered his question, he exerted a little force with his arm around her waist and leaned over.
The sudden closeness made the atmosphere tense. Murong Qiao even felt that her heart was beating so fast that it was about to jump out of her chest.
She was forced to look into Huo Yichen’s eyes. She had no choice but to observe his deep and sparkling pupils before she became intoxicated.
“Stupid,” Huo Yichen said softly. “You have to close your eyes when kissing.”
Murong Qiao closed her eyes almost as soon as he finished speaking. Right on the heels of that, she felt a softness covering her lips.
It was scorching and gentle at the same time.
The Ferris wheel rose to the highest point as expected, but the two spectators in the carriage were not in the mood to look at the beautiful scenery outside.
This kiss was so warm that Murong Qiao subconsciously reached out to hug him back.
Huo Yichen’s body stiffened from her proactive behavior, and his mind went blank. He felt his heart tremble with Murong Qiao’s actions, and heat rose in his body, along with those buried desires.
On the surface, they were evenly matched, but what followed was a storm of attacks, causing Murong Qiao to fall into it without any resistance.
Murong Qiao didn’t know if the legend was true, but it was true that Huo Yichen had kissed her until her lips were broken.
She was kissed until she was in a daze. She didn’t even know how she had gotten off the Ferris wheel and into the car.
“Fasten your seatbelt.” When she came back to her senses, she saw Huo Yichen leaning over to fasten her seatbelt.
Murong Qiao subconsciously reached out to touch her cheek. The heat was shockingly high, even making her feel that she could set up a stall to sell pancakes.
Her thoughts drifted, and she didn’t feel the passage of time at all. She let her imagination run wild all the way until she was sent back to the dormitory by Huo Yichen.
After saying goodbye to Huo Yichen, she returned to the dormitory and was inevitably gossiped about by her roommates.
After all, Murong Qiao and Huo Yichen were always the focus of the students. Whether it was at the school gate, the night market, or even the amusement park, there were always students who took photos and posted them on the forum. It could be said that their whereabouts were exposed almost every time.
“Alright, alright. Go to sleep.” Murong Qiao washed up and went to bed.
She couldn’t stand the gossipy gazes from Yang Xin and Leng Yan from time to time. Especially when the two gazes stopped at the corner of her broken mouth, Murong Qiao felt like she was about to die.
Seeing that Murong Qiao was shy, Yang Xin stopped and started another topic with Leng Yan.
“Speaking of which, where’s Zheng Yue? She’s not back yet.” Yang Xin looked at Zheng Yue’s empty bed in confusion.
Normally, Zheng Yue was the most diligent among the four of them. During the holidays, when the library was closed, she would study in the dormitory. However, for some reason, she had been returning to the dormitory later and later recently, causing even Yang Xin, who was the most dense, to sense that something was wrong.
Leng Yan glanced at Zheng Yue’s seat. “I don’t know. Maybe she has a boyfriend for Christmas too.”
She said this because many luxury goods had appeared on Zheng Yue’s table recently. However, seeing that Zheng Yue was still living a hard life, Leng Yan guessed that she had met a generous boyfriend.
However, this had nothing to do with them.
The topic of conversation between girls was always very jumpy. After a while, the two of them began to talk about other gossip.
Murong Qiao, who was lying on the bed, closed the bed curtain and sent a good night message to Huo Yichen as usual. However, she unexpectedly received a message from her Big Brother, Murong Chen.
[Come home. Help me pick your Fourth Brother up at the airport. He’s coming back soon..]
