Summer Kiss

Chapter 118 Bet
Fu Xicheng's gaze was gentle as water, but his eyes seemed to hold some strange emotion.

He said, "I'm after you, Ningning. Haven't you noticed that our relationship is getting closer and closer? No matter what happens, you always think of me first."

Jiang Yuning hummed in agreement. She was becoming more and more dependent on Fu Xicheng and couldn't live without him.

"With you by my side, I've found that there's nothing you can't solve."

Fu Xicheng suddenly laughed out loud; he was very satisfied with what Jiang Yuning had said.

"Now you know the advantages of having a boyfriend, right? If you had known this would happen, you should have agreed to be my girlfriend sooner."

Jiang Yuning smiled, her bright eyes sparkling like stars. "Fu Xicheng, you're right. It's all my fault for meeting you too late."

A glint flashed in Fu Xicheng's eyes. If he had been more proactive five years ago, perhaps they could have two kids by now.

Fortunately, I met Jiang Yuning this year. He took the initiative, and looking back now, it was actually a kind of fate.

"Ningning, it's not too late now."

Jiang Yuning hugged Fu Xicheng tightly, leaning against him, and told him everything that was on her mind.

"Fu Xicheng, let's go on a date."

Fu Xicheng pulled Jiang Yuning closer to him, and suddenly grabbed her hand that was fiddling with his clothes, gently kissing it.

"Ningning, I don't think you need to go on a date anymore. You're obviously just trying to play me."

Jiang Yuning glared at him, vehemently denying her own little scheme, "What do you mean?!"

He still won't admit it, even though he has solid evidence that she just wanted to play him.

Fu Xicheng slightly lifted his eyelids and smiled lazily, "I don't need to tell you who that woman who was playing with my clothes just now was, do I?"

"Ningning, this is not the time to play around. If you really want to play, you'll be responsible for putting out the fire later."

Even though Jiang Yuning had never experienced anything between men and women, she understood what Fu Xicheng meant by those words.

She leaned against him, looking thoughtful.

Fu Xicheng suddenly stood up, and Jiang Yuning's head almost fell off the bed.

Fu Xicheng quickly placed his hands on her forehead and chuckled softly.

"It was really my fault just now. I almost bumped my Ningning's head. Didn't you say you were going on a date? Let's get going now."

"Let's go shopping first, then have dinner and watch a movie."

Jiang Yuning did not blame Fu Xicheng for his actions. She stood up abruptly and took his arm.

"Let's go, let's go now."

The sun was shining brightly outside, and the two of them walked out of the studio hand in hand.

Fu Xicheng was driving, and Jiang Yuning was sitting in the passenger seat. She chatted with him while keeping her eyes glued to him; her mind was entirely on Fu Xicheng.

Suddenly, her phone vibrated twice.

Jiang Yuning picked up her phone and saw that it was a message from Meng Shuyu.

When she saw the chat content, she couldn't help but frown. She didn't know what Gu Xinghe had said to Meng Shuyu, but Meng Shuyu still chose to believe her.

Jiang Yuning frantically picked at her phone case, her head bowed in bewilderment, seemingly lost in thought.

Fu Xicheng keenly noticed the strangeness in Jiang Yuning's expression, and he casually said, "Jiang Yuning, this is our date time, and I don't want you to focus your attention on others."

Jiang Yuning looked up, her eyes revealing a faint sorrow.

Fu Xicheng continued, "Ningning, I suggest you turn off your phone. Let's have a good time together today. Whatever happens, we can talk about it tomorrow." Jiang Yuning nodded, pressed and held the power button, and turned off her phone.

Jiang Yuning was deep in thought the whole way. Fu Xicheng noticed her emotional fluctuations and changed his plans on the spot.

After a while, as the car slowly pulled into the parking space, Jiang Yuning stared at the scenery outside, clearly stunned.

"Fu Xicheng, weren't we going shopping?"

Fu Xicheng lowered his head and unbuckled Jiang Yuning's seatbelt. He looked at her intently and said, "I don't think you're in the mood for shopping. Coming here to relax is a good way for you to unwind."

Jiang Yuning got out of the car and looked at the amusement park not far away. It seemed like she hadn't been here for many years.

Fu Xicheng went to the ticket window, bought tickets, and then took Jiang Yuning's hand as they entered the amusement park.

He suddenly had an idea: "Let's go ride the roller coaster first, that'll be a good way to stimulate your brain."

Jiang Yuning looked completely puzzled: "???"

"Aren't you afraid of stimulating my brain and making me stupid?"

If riding a roller coaster can make someone stupid, then Jiang Yuning is truly famous.

Fu Xicheng's eyes flickered, and he whispered in her ear, "What's there to be afraid of if you're silly? I'll take care of you."

Jiang Yuning's face flushed for no reason, and she said coquettishly, "Fu Xicheng, you're so naughty."

Fu Xicheng said with a hint of teasing, "Sometimes you'll love me more if I'm a little naughty. Shout out when you're scared, and you'll feel much more relaxed that way."

Should she shout it out so that Fu Xicheng would laugh at her?
Even though she has never ridden a roller coaster, she occasionally scrolls through her WeChat Moments and sees other people riding roller coasters, and they seem to have no reaction at all.

Jiang Yuning confidently assured him, "I'm not afraid at all."

Fu Xicheng didn't argue with her, but went along with her words and said, "You'll only know if you're scared after you try it."

After checking their tickets, Fu Xicheng and Jiang Yuning found a seat at random.

They checked each other's seatbelts.

Fu Xicheng smiled slightly and looked at the person sitting beside him. "Ningning, it's not too late to go down now."

Jiang Yuning looked around and saw that there were so many people riding the roller coaster, including quite a few children.

Is she less courageous than a child?

She won't be afraid.

Jiang Yuning had no intention of getting off. Since she was already here, she had to experience the thrill of a roller coaster.

She said in a low voice, "Fu Xicheng, shall we make a bet?"

"What are you gambling?"

Fu Xicheng suddenly became interested. He especially liked to make bets with others, and he always won.

Jiang Yuning considered it for a moment, then glanced around and saw that all the seats in front of, behind, to the left and right of them were empty.

She lowered her voice, "If I'm scared, I'll grant you one request; if I'm not scared, then you have to grant me one request."

Fu Xicheng stroked his chin, certain that Jiang Yuning would lose.

He raised his own question: "Fear needs to be defined. What kind of behavior constitutes fear?"

Jiang Yuning replied quickly, "Just like you said, if I scream, it means I'm scared."

If screaming means you're scared, what about other behaviors?
