Chapter 547: Chapter 349: Commitment (8000 Word Goal Achieved)_2

"Ouch! It hurts so much! Mr. Temple! It hurts! Let go!"

Shen Gu Mirai cried out indistinctly.

Because Beichuan Si had already reached out emotionlessly and pulled at her cheeks.

"Tell the truth," Beichuan Si said calmly.

Shen Gu Mirai’s expression changed, and her eyes twinkled mischievously before—

Beichuan Si applied even more force.

Shen Gu Mirai cried out in pain,

"It was only an hour or two!"

Just an hour or two?

Beichuan Si released his hand.

He was somewhat speechless about this careless young girl.

Instead of standing here for an hour or two, wouldn’t it have been better to ask him when he was departing in the first place?

"Hehe... Mr. Temple, are you a bit moved?" Shen Gu Mirai grinned, while also rubbing her reddened cheeks.

"Don’t talk nonsense."

Beichuan Si spoke blandly, then still asked, "Have you had breakfast?"

Shen Gu Mirai while rubbing, said, "I ate at the hotel."

"Then let’s head to the place we are staying," Beichuan Si lifted his luggage bag, just about to take a step.

Then he heard Shen Gu Mirai cry out, "Ouch!"

Beichuan Si looked over curiously, "What’s wrong?"

Shen Gu Mirai turned her head somewhat embarrassingly, "Um... I’ve been standing too long..."

"My feet are numb."

"..." Beichuan Si.

"Just wait for me a moment, Mr. Temple! Just a moment!" Shen Gu Mirai gestured with her hands.

Then—

She was dragged along by Beichuan Si.

Walking with both legs completely numb... what a strangely thrilling feeling.

Shen Gu Mirai experienced it.

From her heels to her thighs, the intense tingling sensation felt as though the legs were not hers.

This made Shen Gu Mirai unable to stop crying out, "So numb... Mr. Temple! It’s so numb!"

"It’s good you know it’s painful," Beichuan Si glanced at her, "Next time, no need to wait so early."

He said that, but he still stopped walking, giving Shen Gu Mirai some time to recover.

"Hehe." Shen Gu Mirai touched her head, "Because I was going to see Mr. Temple, and we haven’t met in a long time, so I couldn’t really sleep. And even though you say that, Mr. Temple, you still ended up stopping to let me rest, right? You really don’t need to be so—ow!"

Shen Gu Mirai’s expression changed.

Before she could finish speaking, Beichuan Si pinched her most numb thigh.

The instant rush of tingling and pain mixed together made her squat on the ground, taking quite a while to recover.

"Let’s go. Don’t waste time."

Beichuan Si said calmly.

"..." Shen Gu Mirai.

Stinky Mr. Temple!

She muttered under her breath.

But soon she felt calling him ’Stinky Mr. Temple’ was a bit too harsh.

After thinking for a moment, she changed her words and muttered quietly, "Fragrant Mr. Temple!"

Then—

Her mouth was pinched by Beichuan Si again.

...

It was already noon by the time Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai had finished the hotel check-in.

The temperature was not high, but it was just nice for wearing short sleeves.

Due to latitude and being near the sea, the temperature in Okinawa was much higher than in Tokyo.

Beichuan Si also timely took a short-sleeve shirt from his luggage to change into.

In Shen Gu Mirai’s room, she flopped down on her soft bed with a slap.

"Mr. Temple has returned safely!"

Shen Gu Mirai rolled back and forth with her pillow, murmuring to herself.

Before seeing Beichuan Si, she was always uneasy.

This was also why she had gone to the pier two hours early to wait.

After all, Beichuan Si had visited Ihui Island because of her. If something had happened to him, Shen Gu Mirai felt she would be guilty for life.

But upon seeing Beichuan Si again, she returned to her usual quirky, lively demeanor, trying to cover the anxiety in her heart.

Mr. Temple is really amazing.

She hugged her pillow tightly.

What kind of experiences did one have on the island?

Even if there were crises, that person should have been able to handle them calmly, right?

Shen Gu Mirai rolled over in bed and muttered to herself while counting on her fingers, "What should I do next? I finally made it to Okinawa—maybe I should invite Mr. Temple to go out? But he just got back from Ihui Island. Does he want to rest now? If I invite him, will he be annoyed?"

Ah!

I really, really want to go out with him!

I finally made it to Okinawa Island!

Shen Gu Mirai buried her head back into her pillow, panting heavily.

On one hand, she wanted to invite Beichuan Si to go out with her; on the other, she was concerned that he might be tired and needed rest.

A battle between angels and demons raged in her mind, splitting her thoughts into black and white!

Right when both sides were about to lose—

There was a sudden knock on the door.

"That knock rhythm! It’s Mr. Temple!" Shen Gu Mirai pulled her head from the pillow, quickly fixed her hair, straightened her messy shirt, then calmed her breathing and adjusted her heartbeat.

After all, she was about to face the person she liked!

With these preparations, Shen Gu Mirai didn’t hesitate to open the door!

Indeed, it was Beichuan Si outside.

"Mr. Temple, what’s the matter?" Shen Gu Mirai asked directly with wide eyes.

Under her expressive gaze, Beichuan Si’s expression remained unchanged as he simply said,

"Get ready."

"Get ready? Ready for what?" Shen Gu Mirai didn’t quite understand and repeated the sentence.

"Didn’t I promise you before?" Beichuan Si replied with a question.

Hmm???

Shen Gu Mirai was perplexed.

Seeing her like this, Beichuan Si couldn’t hold any hope and explained, "To watch a movie."

"I had promised you before; we were supposed to watch it in Ibaraki Prefecture, but now we have to switch to Okinawa."

His tone was serious but finally made the stunned Shen Gu Mirai understand.

Beichuan Si had indeed promised to go to a movie with her, but due to various busy matters, it had always been postponed.

However...

Even Shen Gu Mirai herself had forgotten about this promise.

After all, with Beichuan Si being so busy, making such demands of him was perhaps too excessive and too selfish.

So subconsciously, she had forgotten about it.

But...

Beichuan Si still remembered.

He remembered it clearly.

Even though Beichuan Si had just come back from that kind of island, he still remembered such a seemingly trivial matter that had been mentioned before.

Honestly, even if Beichuan Si had forgotten the agreement, Shen Gu Mirai would not have said anything.

Because she troubled Beichuan Si too much, such a small matter was insignificant—

She couldn’t help but recall her conversation with Beichuan Si from yesterday.

"Should we advance the flight booking, Mr. Temple?"

"No need, let’s leave it for the day after tomorrow."

Beichuan Si’s response seemed so clear now.

At that time, Shen Gu Mirai still didn’t understand why Beichuan Si insisted on freeing up a day.

But now she seemed to understand.

"Quick, get ready. I’ll wait for you downstairs." Seeing the change in her expression and not knowing what she was thinking, Beichuan Si simply pushed her back into her room and took the elevator downstairs by himself.

Shen Gu Mirai, who came back to her senses, took a deep breath.

Beichuan Si really valued promises; that was also his unique charm.

He always did what he promised to do; he never reneged.

And liking Beichuan Si...

Shen Gu Mirai felt that it might be the most correct decision she had made in her life.

How could she not fall for such a person?

And it was only Beichuan Si that she would never give up.

"Mr. Temple."

Shen Gu Mirai clenched her fists tightly.

Then she let go.

She turned her head to look out at the balcony.

The weather on Okinawa Island was nice.

Endless clear skies and moderate temperatures.

Perfect for a day out for two.
