Sang abruptly turned her eyes away, staring intently at the stone pavement beneath her feet. She felt a chill run down her spine, let alone reach out to take it. She was so embarrassed that she felt like she could dig out a three-bedroom apartment.

Heavens above! Earth below!

Sang Jiuning roared inwardly, wishing she could die on the spot.

[Please! Can you please send down a bolt of lightning and make me lose my memory? Erase everything from this morning! Not a single word!]

She had never been as embarrassed as she was last night and this morning in her entire life.

Now, the mere sight of yogurt instantly conjures up images of those blush-inducing morning encounters, overwhelming her with shame and making her wish she could disappear into the ground.

From that day on, Sang Jiuning began a comprehensive and thorough mode of avoiding suspicion, completely shunning Wen Zhaoci.

WeChat messages, read but not replied to.

Reject the call immediately if it's a dangerous call.

There was no chance of a chance encounter on campus; if she saw Wen Zhaoci from afar, she would always run away immediately.

She was genuinely embarrassed and annoyed, and also genuinely awkward.

These past few days, Sang Jiuning has had some peace and quiet, but for some reason, she feels a tightness in her chest. However, that awkwardness is far less than the shame she felt in the morning. She has made up her mind that she will absolutely not pay any attention to Wen Zhaoci for the foreseeable future.

Time flies and it's the weekend.

The morning sun was shining brightly when my phone suddenly vibrated, and a call from Fu Yanchen popped up on the screen.

Sang Jiuning swiped to answer the call.

A gentle, clear voice came from the other end of the phone, carrying just the right amount of tender concern: "Little sister, are you free this weekend? I'd like to take you out for a walk."

Sang Jiuning pursed her lips slightly, her voice carrying a hint of sleepiness: "Where are we going?"

"I knew you'd been in a bad mood these past few days," Fu Yanchen chuckled, his tone full of tenderness and care. "Don't stay cooped up at school. I'll take you to the amusement park to relax and have some fun."

Fu Yanchen didn't directly say that he was worried about Sang Jiuning because she was heartbroken after her breakup, so he specially took time out to take her out.

Sang Jiuning felt a warmth in her heart, and the frustration that had been building up for days suddenly eased a bit.

Yeah.

Hiding from Wen Zhaoci is too uncomfortable to keep it all inside, so I might as well go out for a walk to clear my head.

"Okay," she replied softly.

Not long after hanging up the phone, Fu Yanchen's car stopped at the school gate.

Fu Yanchen was wearing a clean white sweatshirt, with gentle eyes and a tall, upright posture, exuding youthful energy at first glance.

He saw Sang Jiuning come out, immediately got out of the car, and considerately opened the car door for her, saying gently, "Get in, I'll take you to have a great time today."

"Thank you, brother."

Driving all the way to the large amusement park in the city center, the vibrant colors, lively voices, and bursts of laughter rushed towards her, and the lively atmosphere instantly washed away all the gloom and awkwardness in Sang Jiuning's heart.

After suppressing her emotions for several days, Sang Jiuning finally found an outlet, and a long-lost light shone in her eyes.

Today, Sang Jiuning completely let loose and chose to play the most exciting games.

"Brother! Let's ride the roller coaster first!"

"And the pirate ship! The giant swing is a must-do! There's also the Sky Flight and the Space Walk—I want to ride them all today!"

Sang Jiuning was in high spirits, her eyes sparkling with excitement. She grabbed Fu Yanchen's wrist and ran towards the project entrance, full of energy.

But no one knew that all of this was extreme torment for Fu Yanchen.

He stared at the towering roller coaster track and the wildly swaying pendulum, his face turning pale and his fingertips stiffening slightly—he was afraid of heights.

Just looking at these high-altitude projects made his legs go weak uncontrollably, and waves of physiological fear surged through him.

Seeing Sang Jiuning so happy beside him, he swallowed all his fears back down.

It's okay, as long as my sister is happy.

As long as it helps her completely forget the pain of heartbreak, this little bit of discomfort is nothing.

So, throughout the entire process, Fu Yanchen endured it all.

When the roller coaster plunged at high speed, he gritted his teeth, suppressing his dizziness and panic, and dared not utter a sound for fear of scaring the girl next to him; when the pirate ship shook wildly, he gripped the handrail tightly, his face pale, but he still did not forget to turn his head to look at Sang Jiu Ning to make sure she was having a good time; when the pendulum was spinning high in the air, his internal organs were churning, but he still stayed with her without saying a word.

After completing one thrilling activity after another, Sang Jiuning was covered in a light sweat, her eyes crinkling with laughter. All the embarrassment, awkwardness, and frustration that had accumulated over the past few days were completely washed away by the extreme excitement and joy.

She let out a long sigh of relief, feeling completely relaxed: "That felt so good! I haven't felt this good in ages!"

But Fu Yanchen, who was standing to the side, couldn't hold on any longer.

The moment his feet touched the ground, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. His face was so pale it was almost transparent, his breathing was unsteady, and he was so dizzy he couldn't tell which way was which.

Sang Jiuning was startled by his appearance and quickly stepped forward to support him, her face full of guilt: "Brother, are you alright? Are you feeling unwell? I should have known better than to play so much!"

It took Fu Yanchen a long time to regain his balance. He smiled weakly, his eyes still full of tenderness as he looked at her: "It's okay, as long as you're happy, that's enough."

The two of them here live a peaceful and heartwarming life.

On the other hand, Wen Zhaoci endured the most difficult and agonizing days.

Sang Jiuning's figure could no longer be seen in the apartment or in any corner of the campus, and her sweet voice could no longer be heard. The vast world seemed to have been emptied in an instant.

He panicked completely.

My WeChat messages went unanswered; dozens of messages were sent, but there was not a single reply.

When you call, all you get is a cold, dismissed tone.

He went to the teaching building, library, and girls' dormitory to wait for her, but Sang Jiuning seemed to have vanished into thin air, always managing to precisely avoid all his waiting.

Wen Zhaoci leaned against the car, her fingers gripping her phone. The coldness in her eyes had completely faded, leaving only anxiety and helplessness.

He knew perfectly well that this time, he had really angered his baby.

Regret, annoyance, and panic gripped his heart, making him restless.

He tapped on his phone and found Sang Jiuning's location.

The location was clearly displayed at the amusement park in the city center.

The moment Wen Zhaoci saw the coordinates, a glimmer of light instantly lit up her dim eyes, and the panic in her heart subsided slightly.

The baby went out to play; he should be in a better mood now, right?

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately started the car and sped towards the amusement park, wishing he could fly to Sang Jiuning's side instantly.

But when he rushed to the amusement park, pushed through the crowd, and caught a glimpse of the scene not far away, all his joy and anticipation were instantly extinguished by a bucket of ice water.

Under the bright sunlight, the little girl he cherished and pampered, whom he tried so hard to coax but couldn't, stood next to another boy with her eyes crinkling in a smile.

Fu Yanchen gently supported her, whispering some instructions in a friendly and natural manner.

The two stood side by side, chatting and laughing, a heartwarming scene that was almost blindingly sweet. Even though he was Sang Jiuning's cousin, it made him insanely jealous.
