Regarding the matter of awakening lightning abilities after transformation

"Hmm." And so, another couple began their merciless massacre of single people.

Chapter 140, Section 143: Do you prefer boys or girls?

"A glass of lemonade, a glass of orange juice with added sugar~"

"Okay." Gu Cheng and Su Wanxi sat by the window, quietly waiting for the tea to be served.

They had already spent half a day wandering around the amusement park. Ever since she rode a roller coaster once, Gu Cheng hadn't tried any thrilling rides again.

Pirate ships, drop towers, sky towers... Gu Cheng didn't want to touch any of these flashy things. Carousels and bumper cars were more suitable for a tough girl like her.

Su Wanxi was there to accompany her girlfriend. Since Gu Cheng wasn't going to play, she wasn't interested in going up herself. Instead, she wandered around and ended up going to the haunted house.

At first, I thought there would be some plot from novels or movies, such as a monster suddenly appearing, the female lead being frightened and hugging the male lead's arm tightly, or burying her head in his arms, thus rapidly warming up their relationship.

Unfortunately, reality was completely different from what she imagined. When Gu Cheng went in, he had his arm around her, but when they came out, they were holding hands.

"That ghost's movements and makeup are so exaggerated... I can even see its feet sticking out." As expected of an experienced Awakened, despite its fear of heights, its mental fortitude is still excellent.

Out of respect, Gu Cheng didn't speak in the haunted house, but Su Wanxi could sense the barely suppressed laughter emanating from the other's slightly trembling shoulders.

"Not scary...it's quite interesting..." Was that a compliment? Su Wanxi didn't know how to respond, because she had kept a stoic expression the whole time.

I have no emotions and will not offer my opinion.

"Guest number thirty-two, your lemonade and orange juice are ready~" Su Wanxi told Gu Cheng to stay where she was while she went to the counter to get her tea.

Napkins, straws... gather everything, the boots creaking on the steps.

As soon as Su Wanxi went upstairs, she saw a man in his twenties standing next to Gu Cheng. He was wearing a black wide-brimmed hat and was not very tall.

Her boyfriend had only been downstairs to get food for two minutes, so how come so many people were crowding around so quickly... Su Wanxi remained outwardly calm and slowed her pace slightly.

"So, Miss Gu, are you here with your best friend?" The man had noticed them as soon as they entered the teahouse, and after thinking for a long time, he still wanted to try striking up a conversation.

"No." Gu Cheng shook her head, without explaining her relationship with Su Wanxi.

Gu Cheng wouldn't mind if it was just asking for directions, but the other person clearly had other intentions.

We need to get him to leave quickly... Su Wanxi should be coming up soon.

"Is that so? Actually, I..." Before she could finish her sentence, Su Wanxi placed the plate on the table, inserted a straw, and handed it to the other person.

The man hesitated for a moment, then continued, "Could we exchange numbers?... I know this area well; I can ask you anything on my phone..."

"Sorry." Gu Cheng smiled politely, gesturing for the other person to leave. If she had actually given him her number, he would probably have kept a cold face for the next few days.

The man's hesitant appearance made Su Wanxi frown repeatedly. She lifted the girl's snow-white hand and kissed it lightly as if declaring ownership.

Even the most foolish man would know they were a couple, so he could only turn around and leave awkwardly.

Watching him walk away, Su Wanxi pinched Gu Cheng's cheek, her tone thick with jealousy: "You smiled at him..."

The latter was somewhat speechless: "It's just a courtesy... I don't like boys anyway."

"So girls can... Qin Kexin?" Su Wanxi recalled the day Qin Kexin lured Gu Cheng out to stroll around the university town, and all that remained for her was a dry text message.

"What are you talking about... Uncle Zhou would beat me up if he knew." Gu Cheng believed she had never laid a hand on Qin Kexin since they met, so how did Su Wanxi see her as a heartless scoundrel?

"Didn't she really like hugging you?" That night back in Lanjiang, and before that at the flower shop... Qin Kexin ate oranges one after another, hanging them on her right arm like a koala.

Gu Cheng is now 100% certain that Su Wanxi is jealous of Qin Kexin.

"We're just friends." She and Qin Kexin... what kind of jealousy is this?

"You're not allowed to hug her like that anymore." Su Wanxi picked up the lemonade the other person had drunk from and took a small sip.

"..." The girl stared at the fresh orange juice handed to her, feeling both speechless and amused.

"I don't like boys or girls... I only like you, Su Wanxi."

Now that things have come to this, Gu Cheng can no longer explain whether her sexual orientation is straight or gay...

If you really have to find an answer, then she is a Xi-sexual, the kind who only likes Su Wanxi.

......

The two cups of tea cost almost a hundred yuan, so Gu Cheng took the initiative to go to the counter to pay the bill.

There's no reason for only one person to pay on a date... although Su Wanxi, being a little rich girl, doesn't care.

"Let's go ride the Ferris wheel~" After hearing Gu Cheng's explanation, Su Wanxi felt a little sweet inside, but she habitually showed no expression.

"A Ferris wheel?" The internet says it's one of the must-ride rides for couples at amusement parks, and Gu Cheng is also interested in trying it.

"Okay, after we ride that, we'll go have lunch." The two walked one after the other, following the signs towards the Ferris wheel.

Gu Cheng brought her legs together, her skin gently rubbing against the surface of the sheer stockings.

"Are you cold?" Su Wanxi asked her with concern.

"A little." In late autumn and early winter, the outdoor temperature is much lower than in summer. Gu Cheng's tights are summer style, thin and breathable, and not as warm as they are in autumn and winter.

A cold wind blew, and my whole body felt chilly.

"It seems you didn't bring a change of clothes... Let's go shopping at the mall after lunch."

Since it was a date, Gu Cheng rarely wore a dress, and Su Wanxi wanted to take this opportunity to buy her a few more decent clothes.

"Okay." The girl lightly kicked her little leather shoes twice and unconsciously quickened her pace.

......

They were the last two to arrive at the Ferris wheel, and the machine started as soon as they sat down in their cabin.

Gu Cheng rested her chin on her hand, gazing out the window at the surrounding scenery.

The Ferris wheel is located in the very center of the Sakura Amusement Park. From there, you can overlook the entire amusement park. Gu Cheng noticed that the roller coaster she had ridden before had long queues again.

Su Wanxi placed the girl's legs on her knees and gently stroked them with her fair hands through the stockings.

Is it warmer now?

"...Hmm." Gu Cheng lowered her head and nodded almost imperceptibly twice.

Compared to the temperature of the other person's palm, the accelerated blood flow brought even more heat, and Gu Cheng felt that her legs were even a little hot.

"Orange...have you heard the story about Ferris wheels?"

"No...what's wrong?" Su Wanxi whispered in Gu Cheng's ear, her sweet scent making Gu Cheng feel a little itchy.

"It's said that couples who kiss on a Ferris wheel will eventually break up..."

Section 144, Chapter 141: The Highest Point

"...If you kiss your lover when the Ferris wheel reaches its highest point, you will continue walking forever."

Su Wanxi turned her head, her long, smooth hair obscuring her clear and deep eyes. Gu Cheng followed her gaze and looked out the window at the azure sky.

"That's a very romantic way of putting it... Where did you hear that from..." The girl tried to put her legs down from the other person's knees, but was gently pressed down by two fair hands.

Su Wanxi glanced at her and curled her cherry-pink lips into a smile: "It's written on Baidu."

Although this answer was very much in line with her lover's personality, Gu Cheng still felt that the atmosphere had been inexplicably ruined.

"Su Wanxi...what time did you go to bed last night?" Having done so much research beforehand, she probably couldn't rest until very late...

"Around 3:42... I looked up some information on my phone."

"Didn't I tell you to go to bed early?" Gu Cheng turned her body away angrily, making it difficult for Su Wanxi to kiss her directly from this angle.

"I can't sleep." Accustomed to sleeping with her soft, warm lover, Miss Su suffered from insomnia on her first night back home.

"You can buy some milk and keep it in the refrigerator. If you have trouble sleeping at night, you can warm it up in the microwave before drinking it. Also, drink less sugary coffee in general..."

Gu Cheng thought the other person's insomnia was caused by excessive caffeine intake, little did she know that she was the culprit who couldn't sleep.

"I just missed you..." Su Wanxi maintained her aloof demeanor, as if what she had just said was not an extremely cheesy love confession, but rather a statement about work.

The sudden straight shot made Gu Cheng blush, and even her voice became delicate and low, broken and intermittent: "...I miss you too."

The next second, Su Wanxi bent down, her long, jet-black hair casually draped over the girl's shoulders.

Their lips touched, their tongues intertwined, making a sweet, wet sound. Just as the Ferris wheel reached its apex, Su Wanxi pulled Gu Cheng halfway into her arms and kissed him passionately.

......

Sunlight streamed slowly through the transparent glass into the private room, illuminating Su Wanxi's fair and delicate face.

"Hmm...is it not over yet..." After a long kiss, Gu Cheng took the initiative to release her lips, breathing heavily.

With her fair legs encased in black stockings slightly raised, Su Wanxi moved her arms to her waist, allowing Gu Cheng to lie more comfortably in her arms.

"It seems to be malfunctioning..." Su Wanxi muttered to herself, her delicate brows furrowed as she gazed out the window.

Their private room had been at the highest point for almost ten minutes, and according to what they read online, it should be descending by now.

"A malfunction...what a coincidence?" Gu Cheng looked up and around, noticing that people in other private rooms were also looking out.

"It's highly likely..." Thinking of someone's fear of heights, Su Wanxi couldn't help but put her arm around Gu Cheng's shoulder.

Seeing the other person holding her in their arms like a protective parent, Gu Cheng felt both amused and touched.

"My fear of heights isn't as severe as I thought. What's there to be afraid of on such a slow-moving Ferris wheel..."

Her electrical abilities can help her attract steel bars or other iron structures, while Su Wanxi's "gravity manipulation" can minimize the danger of being at high altitudes.

Even if the two of them fell from mid-air now, the chances of them getting injured would be extremely slim; at most, it would just give Gu Cheng a moment of heart palpitation.

Before she could finish speaking, the Ferris wheel continued to operate, and Gu Cheng naturally got off Su Wanxi's lap and gently took her left hand.

"Su Wanxi... why are you so sure that was the highest point of the Ferris wheel?" There were no clues, and it was impossible to tell the difference between looking forward and backward.

"At that position, your and my gravitational potential energy is at its maximum..."

Gravitational potential energy... She never thought she would hear this term again in her lifetime... Su Wanxi was probably as sensitive to it as she was to voltage and current. Gu Cheng tugged at her little leather shoes and gently rubbed her hair with her fingers.

"Because of your abilities?"

"Mm." Su Wanxi nodded.
