Chapter 203: 161. Let Your Heart Fly (2)_3

"Don’t rush, American drama series will soon start favoring long hair, probably next week, then you can ask me again."

"Remember to ask, okay!"

"Scram!"

Only then did Zhou Sinin realize she had been tricked and gave him a displeased look, pouting her lips.

"There, I brought you here to release balloons."

"Release balloons?"

Zhou Sinin lifted her chin and looked towards the Mei Yangyang in his arms.

"You know about Singles’ Day, right?"

"Yeah, the shopping festival, I bought a lot of stuff."

"I’m talking about Singles’ Day!"

"Oh."

Zhou Sinin pursed her lips and stuck out her tongue a bit.

"Either way, it’s a festival. Back when we were kids, we used to release sky lanterns for blessings during festivals, personally writing down our heartfelt wishes, symbolizing hopes and harvests, lucky every year."

Saying this, Lu Jincheng picked up the Mei Yangyang helium balloon from his hand and took a pen out of his pocket, shaking it at her.

"Now the city doesn’t allow releasing sky lanterns anymore, so we’re using balloons instead."

"Here, write a wish on the balloon and let it float into the sky, it’ll surely come true."

"Ah?"

Zhou Sinin was still hesitating when Lu Jincheng had already started writing something on the back of the balloon, then stuffed the pen into her palm.

"Come on, you write on the front and I on the back, neither of us can see the other’s wish."

"Okay then."

The girl took off the pen cap, her wrist shaking, and like him, she earnestly wrote a line of text.

"Next, do we just release the balloon like this?"

No girl dislikes a sense of ceremony.

At the edge of Mei Yangyang’s smiling face, you could faintly see an arrow drawn.

Zhou Sinin capped the pen and held both their wish lists tightly in her arms.

"Something’s missing."

Mr. Lu pointed to some equipment not far away where there was a large swing for kids and office workers to play on.

This sort of swing was very tall, playable alone, but to really enjoy it, one needed someone’s assistance.

"Jump on!"

Lu Jincheng stood next to the swing, gesturing for Zhou Sinin to come over.

"What for?"

"Don’t worry, just jump on!"

The girl was pushed up by Lu Jincheng, grabbing the handrails at the edge, a hint of confusion in her eyes.

"Ready?"

Lu Jincheng smiled and untied the bow on her hand, freeing the balloon from its string constraints.

"...Ready for what? Swinging?"

"Hold on with your hands, when we reach the highest point, you’ll let go."

In Zhou Sinin’s palm, besides the swing’s iron chains, there was now a bundle of strings.

"Here we go!"

"I’m a bit scared, go slow!"

The man forcefully pushed towards Zhou Sinin’s tense body, swinging gently one way, then adding a good amount of force on the way back.

"Ah, slow down!!!"

The swing swung faster and higher.

It quickly felt like Zhou Sinin had grown a pair of wings to fly, with the autumn breeze and moon constantly washing over her skin; the night started to flow, the park’s big trees suddenly all grew legs, turning into dark green silhouettes.

They surrounded the girl and the audience below turned into tiny black spots, totally enclosing them with no way out.

Unconsciously, she let go of her hands.

A Mei Yangyang helium balloon appeared in the sky, its two horns seemed to wave goodbye, carrying the wish farther and farther away.

The metal chains groaned and swayed, losing momentum.

Zhou Sinin staggered off the swing, Lu Jincheng supporting her, clinging close to her palm.

She just accepted her fate of interlocking fingers with him.

She remained silent.

Even though she could feel the man’s warmth and the sweat in her palm, she couldn’t clearly see his face.

The sensation at the peak was peculiar, the romance of a wish soaring into the sky, the fresh smell of leaves, getting closer to the moon...

Everything burst into life in a dizzying spin.

"How was it? Fun?"

"Not fun at all, you didn’t listen to me, I almost died, I..."

Zhou Sinin had just come back to her senses from the soaring experience, letting go of his hand, took a deep breath.

"Let’s not talk about that, didn’t you have fun?"

He wasn’t speaking to Zhou Sinin, but to the wind.

"Um... I did have fun, really fun."

Zhou Sinin was still a bit unsteady, one hand supporting her forehead.

Her voice sounded so distant, as if drifting from outer space.

If anything was lacking in today’s date, it was surely the uncontrollable throbbing heartbeat and unprecedented thrill.

This is also called the suspension bridge effect.

"Feeling a bit dizzy?"

"Yes, so dizzy now."

"Let me share some of it with you?"

"..."

The girl lifted her chin, her inquiring gaze just met his, and she was pulled into his embrace.

She wanted to ask how he would share it but didn’t get the chance to speak, didn’t manage to keep the distance.

Lu Jincheng lowered his head and kissed her.

It was the perfect moment.

Her lips felt like they were caught in an endless dizzy spell, her mind went blank.

Her lips gently pried open, inhaling the boy’s fresh, clean scent, soft touches, dizzying ascent, wafting sweetness.

No way...

Maybe... it really could share it.

But why do I feel even dizzier?

She tiptoed, wrapped her arms around his neck, and tightly closed her eyes.

On ordinary days, the nights in Jiang City had just a few stars, inevitably somewhat dim under the street lights, but today was extraordinary.

All the dust whirled in the wind, the park was quiet and transparent, a vast Milky Way spilled out in the dark night, when the swing reached its highest point, her cheeks nearly parallel with the sky.

She had never seen such beautiful stars before.

They were merely tiny, but the rising wishes made romance sparkle in the nighttime.

The balloon disappeared, the universe spun with them.

The green kiss kicked up an intoxicating tornado, their silhouettes dazzling in the storm.

Zhou Sinin would never forget this day.

On November 10, 2014, amidst her dizzy spells, she surrendered her first kiss.

She wrote down,

[I want to be with Mei Yangyang forever.]
