Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Tediously Hard to Part

The sky outside gradually darkened, the small lights on the Ferris wheel emanated a faint glow, and the Ferris wheel rose slowly, overlooking the scenery below.

Fu Ying lay on the glass, looking out, captivated by the night view of the city.

She remembered Lin Lishan saying that if you make a wish at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, the wish will come true, but she didn’t know if it was true.

Shen Liguang’s gaze lingered on her for a good while before slowly drifting away.

The air felt a bit stagnant.

This was the first time he had taken a girl out on a date, and the suggestions were all unreliable, so he was unsure whether she liked it or not.

But judging by her reaction, she probably liked it.

After all, since getting on the Ferris wheel, she hadn’t glanced at him once.

For the first time, he felt entitled to be jealous, yet the object of his jealousy was the Ferris wheel...

She continued to lay on the glass, looking out. The lights outside shone on her face, her eyes sparkling.

Fu Ying sighed softly, suddenly missing her grandmother a lot. It had been so long since she came here, she had forgotten what her grandmother looked like.

"What are you thinking about?" Shen Liguang saw a tint of sadness in her eyes and was eager to know what she was thinking.

He always couldn’t help but want to peer into the girl’s heart, his past words really came back to slap him in the face.

Fu Ying shook her head and turned to look at him: "Brother, have you ever heard the story of the Ferris wheel?"

"What story about the Ferris wheel?"

"It’s that if you make a wish at the highest point of the Ferris wheel, it will come true."

Shen Liguang: "Who told you that?"

"My classmate."

A ride on the Ferris wheel lasts about twenty minutes, and as the Ferris wheel reached its zenith, Fu Ying started to fear heights and withdrew her gaze.

She turned her head and found the man staring at her.

Fu Ying hastily averted her gaze, feeling her lips were a bit dry.

The small space, alone with another person, was too fatal.

Fortunately, she brought her homework.

"Brother, can you help me with my homework?"

"..."

Shen Liguang had never expected that the little lady had brought her homework to their date.

Shen Liguang took her homework away and kissed her: "Then do you know there’s another story about the Ferris wheel?"

Fu Ying lowered her head, not responding.

Of course, Lin Lishan had told her about it.

Shen Liguang looked outside, his gaze then landed back on Fu Ying: "The two people who kiss at the highest point of the Ferris wheel will stay together forever."

After that...

Fu Ying’s breathing became hurried, her body limp.

Shen Liguang couldn’t resist the urge to laugh.

"Why do you blush so easily?"

"What will you do in the future?"

Fu Ying instantly got his implication, and then her face grew even redder.

He smiled, picking up her notebook: "Where do you not understand?"

Fu Ying’s face was scarlet: "I don’t understand any of it, you write it for me."

"Do your own homework."

"..."

Time always flies when she’s with him.

Back home, Fu Ying looked down from the window.

He sat in the car smoking, not yet leaving.

After a while, Fu Ying saw him pick up the phone, and then the cellphone on the table rang.

At the call’s connection, the man said: "Goodnight."

Fu Ying curved her lips: "Didn’t you say that just now?"

Shen Liguang paused, feeling himself being fickle.

"I want to say it again."

"Then, brother, goodnight."

"Mm."

Unless there was an alarm, he never hung up first.

Waiting for Fu Ying to hang up first.

Fu Ying felt they were sticking together so much that they were almost inseparable.

Fu Ying took her pajamas to shower, and by the time she came out, he had already left.

Fu Ying couldn’t sleep at night; she thought about the identity card she saw in the car.

His birthday is in just a few days.

Having known him for so long, she realized she didn’t really know him that well.

She browsed online with her smartphone, looking to pick out a suitable birthday gift.

But since it was her first time giving a present to a man, she was inexperienced and clueless.

She ended up looking until the early hours of the morning and still didn’t buy anything. Eventually, she just went to sleep, not even noticing his message on WeChat.

...

The sunlight outside was just perfect, coming in through the window, and the library was exceptionally quiet.

Fu Ying lowered her head, reading from the book: A mutual longing, each harbors their worries. No plan can dispel this sentiment, it leaves the brows only to reach the heart.

How fitting.

A mutual longing, each harbors their worries, just like her and her brother.

"Isn’t there too much hype over this campus beauty contest?"

Lin Lishan was browsing the school forum, where the annual campus beauty contest was being hotly debated.

She was so into looking at the beauties and simultaneously complaining.

Fu Ying was uninterested in this matter, her head down translating classical Chinese.

Lin Lishan pushed her laptop towards Fu Ying, pointing at the picture of the first-place winner: "Look at this, how can she be prettier than the second-place? And yet the votes are so different."

Fu Ying glanced up and saw Cheng Yiyi’s captivating smile, which was too conspicuous.

"Why bother yourself with this since you aren’t participating?"

Lin Lishan said while cupping her face: "I just can’t stand it; the first place is too overrated, you’re much prettier than her."

"..."

Fu Ying frowned.

"Fu Ying, if I were to participate..."

Fu Ying: "Don’t you even think about it, or else your Sheng Chen might come after you."

Speaking of Sheng Chen, Lin Lishan suddenly acted demure: "What’s it to him?"

"A boyfriend fears his beautiful girlfriend will attract too much attention and get snatched away."

"Stop it, you’re making fun of me."

"I’m speaking the truth."

Lin Lishan: "How come I don’t like to hear this ’truth’?"

In the afternoon Lin Lishan had to send something to Sheng Chen and insisted on Fu Ying coming along.

As soon as they walked into the delivery store, the delivery guy recognized Fu Ying.

An unforgettable impression.

A young girl who sent 98 love letters.

"It’s been a long time since I sent any letters."

Fu Ying smiled: "No need to send any anymore."

"Did you win him over?"

At that moment, Lin Lishan was busy filling out the form and didn’t pay attention to their conversation.

Fu Ying nodded lightly: "Yes, I did."

"Congratulations."

Fu Ying nodded politely: "Thank you."

On the way back, they took the bus.

The bus was moving slowly and stopped at a station ahead, where people got on.

Fu Ying looked up as a man boarded, paid his fare, and walked toward them.

Fu Ying’s heart fluttered for a moment.

What a coincidence.

She had wanted to bump into him before but never had, and now he seemed to haunt her.

Fu Ying quickly averted her gaze, looking out the window.

Next to her, Lin Lishan quietly said: "Isn’t that the firefighter brother? He saved you last time, aren’t you going to say hi?"

"Brother, what a coincidence."

The girl pretended not to recognize him.

The girl turned her head, greeted him with a bright smile.

The man smiled back: "Indeed, a coincidence."

Fu Ying turned her head, looking out the window again.

Lin Lishan whispered to her: "He’s really handsome, Fu Ying, he saved your life last time, you should totally devote yourself to him."

Fu Ying: "..."

"I’m serious, this firefighter brother is definitely single, don’t believe me, I’ll ask him."

Before Fu Ying could say anything, Lin Lishan already turned: "Firefighter brother, do you have a girlfriend?"

Shen Liguang glanced at Fu Ying and nodded: "Yes."

"Ah? Okay then." Lin Lishan turned back, a bit disappointed.

Fu Ying looked out the window, silently laughing.
