At the same time, Mighty Secretary Xia, who had just finished bathing his cat, suddenly felt a chill on his back and s.h.i.+vered.
“Why did it suddenly become so cold?” Xia zhetao rubbed his nose and thought for a moment, but did not pursue the matter further. He carried the cat that had just finished its bath and was about to walk in when the cat suddenly opened its mouth and meowed. Its entire body shook in a flurry, and it gave
all of its water to Xia Zhetao.
Xia Zhetao was speechless.
On the other side, Mu Tingfeng saw that Zhao Youlin’s expression was only turning uglier and uglier. In the end, she even threw away the booklet. His heart trembled, and he had a bad feeling.
Zhao Youlin took a deep breath and turned her head. She grinned at Mu Tingfeng and asked despite knowing the answer, “Can I ask who gave you this book?”
‘Mu Tingfeng cursed in his heart. Between his wife and his subordinate, he chose his wife without any hesitation. He sold out a certain someone without any integrity. “Ahem, it’s Secretary Xia. I’ve never been to an amus.e.m.e.nt park with anyone, so I don’t know what kind of games girls like. I heard that he
had a lot of girlfriends and was very experienced, so…”
“Oh?” Zhao Youlin raised her eyebrows, “It tums out that Secretary Xia had a lot of girlfriends before, but most of the things written in this book seem to be wrong. To use such wrong information to mislead the boss, he’s really an incompetent subordinate. For such an incompetent subordinate, don’t you
think you should…
Mu Tingfeng immediately understood and replied seriously, “Yes, T’l lower his salary when I head back.”
“Okay.” Zhao Youlin’s face finally looked better. Although the salary reduction was a little different from what she had expected, it still taught him a lesson.
The poor Mighty Secretary Xia was only thinking of his boss. It was fine that he didn’t receive any thanks, but he was still tragically facing the future of a salary reduction. It was really sad and lamentable!
‘When she saw that Mu Tingfeng was so cooperative, Zhao Youlin’s anger also subsided. She looked at Mu Tingfeng mockingly and asked, despite knowing the answer, “Is there anything else you want to play?”
Most of the amus.e.m.e.nt facilities in the amus.e.m.e.nt park were very exciting. Mu Tingfeng’s fear of heights was his Achilles’ heel. Mu Tingfeng himself should be very clear on this point. The reason why he chose such a place for his date was… definitely related to Xia Zhetao.
Unfortunately, Xia Zhetao had not thought everything out. He never expected his CEO to be afraid of heights and the dark. When he came to the amus.e.m.e.nt park, he could only go to a haunted house. He wanted to be a hero to save the damsel in distress, but the power cut had scared him badly. It was.
quite a tragedy.
However, they were almost done playing on the ground. She didn’t think that there was a need for them to continue playing.
Zhao Youlin waited for a long time, but didn’t hear Mu Tingfeng’s answer. She nodded as expected. “Since there’s nothing left to play, let’s go out first. After lunch, we’ll go somewhere else to play.”
As she said this, Zhao Youlin tumed around and was about to leave, but Mu Tingfeng pulled her back.
“What’s wrong?”
Mu Tingfeng stared into Zhao Youlin’s eyes and replied in a m.u.f.fled voice, “One more.”
“Hmm
“One more, then welll go back.”
Zhao Youlin finally tumed around and asked in puzzlement, “You still want to play? But the remaining rides they have around here… What do you want to play?”
Was this guy planning to go back to the haunted house again?!
Mu Tingfeng’s eyes flickered, and he pointed in a certain direction resolutely. Zhao Youlin followed his finger and saw the slowly rising carriage.
“Ferris wheel? Are you sure you want to go there?” Zhao Youlin looked at Mu Tingfeng suspiciously. “Aren’t you…”
Mu Tingfeng tried his best to make himself look less guilty and said with a determined look, “Yes, I want to go up.”
Zhao Youlin opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but when she met Mu Tingfeng’s extremely determined gaze, she didn’t say anything. In the end, she sighed and said, “Alright, since you’ve said it yourself, what else do I have to say? Anyway, you’re the one who’s afraid of heights, not me.”
‘Mu Tingfeng could hear the awkward concern in Zhao Youlin’s tone. The corners of his lips curled up, and he took the initiative to go forward and hold Zhao Youlin’s hand again. “Let’s go.”
At this time, there were still a lot of people riding the Ferris wheel, and most of them were couples. Zhao Youlin and Mu Tingfeng waited for a while before they sat in the last independent carriage.
As they watched the carriage leave the platform and rise up bit by bit, Mu Tingfeng’s grip on Zhao Youlin’s hand became tighter and tighter.
Zhao Youlin turned to look at Mu Tingfeng’s face. As expected, he was still expressionless. It was easy for people who did not know him to mistake him as aloof and indifferent. However, Zhao Youlin knew that he was nervous.
The doubts in her heart grew. Zhao Youlin still could not understand. This man was so afraid, why did he have to sit on this thing? Was he torturing himself?
As if he could read Zhao Youlin’s mind, Mu Tingfeng coughed lightly and said, “Well… isn’t there a legend that couples ride on the Ferris wheel together…”
Mu Tingfeng’s voice became softer and softer, but Zhao Youlin had already heard the main point. She turned to look at Mu Tingfeng in surprise. “Is that why you’ve come here to ride the Ferris Wheel?”
Mu Tingfeng didn’t answer, but the tip of his ears, which turned red in an instant, revealed his true thoughts at that moment.
The corner of Zhao Youlin’s mouth twitched. Which couple would end up breaking up if they sat on the Ferris wheel together? But if the Ferris wheel reached its peak, the two lovers were able to kiss… then their love would be long-lasting and they would be together forever. Such a legend was very
unreliable.
If the relations.h.i.+p between two people was truly affected by such a ridiculous thing, it could only mean that the two of them were not truly in love, to begin with.
Most people liked to count on tales and rumors. When something happened, their first reaction would definitely not be to find problems with themselves. Instead, they would rack their brains to s.h.i.+rk responsibility and blame all the problems on those so-called twists of fate in order to seek relief.
Zhao Youlin, who understood this better than anyone else, clearly wanted to laugh. However, when she saw Mu Tingfeng’s slightly expectant and perturbed gaze, she suddenly could not laugh anymore. His eyes were filled with fear.
This person had never believed in ghosts and G.o.ds before meeting her. However, after meeting her, he had accepted her existence.
Now, because of such a ridiculous legend, he had to endure his fear and insist on sitting on this Ferris wheel with her.
In fact, he might be able to see through such falschoods, but even so, he still walked up without hesitation.
Perhaps, what he cared about was not the so-called legend or prophecy, but the very first tenet he had set upon their relations.h.i.+p, to be long-lasting!
As she thought of this, Zhao Youlin could not help but laugh. She did not know whether she was laughing at Mu Tingfeng or herself, who was so easily moved by Mu Tingfeng’s small gestures.
