Lin Gantang looked at his dejected gaze and felt a little guilty. In the end, he hugged her.
Wen Yanqing pleaded in a low voice, “Just once, okay?”
He… Why is he so pitiful? Aren’t I the one suffering? Seeing him like this, Lin Gantang could not harden her heart. “…Change to something else? A roller coaster or a pirate ship?”
Wen Yanqing shook his head.
“Why must you insist on jumping?” Lin Gantang’s face was full of tears. She finally remembered to ask this.
She had never heard that he liked extreme sports, but he insisted on bringing her here today. Lin Gantang wanted to resolve the problem and ask him to give up.
In the end, Wen Yanqing said, “I’ll tell you after the jump.”
He led Lin Gantang forward for a distance. Seeing that the bungee jumping platform was getting closer and closer, Lin Gantang made her final struggle. She shook him and acted coquettishly. After all, Wen Yanqing was most likely to fall for these tricks. “I don’t want to go…”
That long note made Wen Yanqing’s heart melt.
Wen Yanqing restrained the urge to kiss her. “Be good, listen to Brother this once.”
“My brother won’t let me bungee jump,” Lin Gantang cried.
“That’s why I’m not your biological brother.”
Wen Yanqing firmly brought her to the bungee jumping platform. The staff was used to seeing people who didn’t dare to jump. This scene wasn’t enough to interest him. He took out the jumping rope and asked, “Have you ever jumped before?”
“Yes,” Wen Yanqing said.
Lin Gantang glanced at Wen Yanqing, not expecting him to have prior experience with it.
The staff member nodded and swiftly helped the two of them put on their safety equipment.
Everything was ready. Lin Gantang looked at the hanging cliff beneath her feet. Her heart pounded and she quickly looked away.
“Don’t be afraid.” Wen Yanqing said softly, “I’ll count and we’ll jump together. Are you ready?”
“Al…alright,” Lin Gantang stuttered.
“One.”
Lin Gantang looked as if she was facing certain death.
“Two.”
Then, Lin Gantang heard a chuckle and felt herself falling backwards.
In an instant, her body seemed to have fallen into a bottomless pit, falling at high speed.
There was no ‘three’, no ‘three’!
Lin Gantang thought she would scream, but she realized that she was too scared to make a sound. The fear of weightlessness made her mind go blank. She didn’t even dare to open her eyes. The only thing she could do was to hug him tightly as if her heart was jumping out of her chest.
The wind whistled past her ears as Wen Yanqing held her in his arms, as she allowed her body to fall. The beautiful landscape did not enter his eyes. He only looked at Lin Gantang in his arms.
She had never hugged him so tightly before, as if he was her only driftwood. He had the illusion that she would never let go.
Wen Yanqing hugged her tightly and kissed her lips.
The rope bounced back at the lowest point, falling and bouncing up again and again.
When the fall slowed, Lin Gantang finally dared to open her eyes and met Wen Yanqing’s tender gaze.
Through his eyes, Lin Gantang seemed to see a gentle lake, a peaceful world, and a clear reflection of herself.
It was so magical that it made one feel inexplicably at ease. In an instant, she completely forgot her fear.
When the rope stopped bouncing, Lin Gantang landed safely and undid her equipment, her legs still weak.
Wen Yanqing wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled warmly at her.
The two extreme feelings of excessive fear and the thrill of conquering after surpassing death, made Lin Gantang’s heart go on a roller-coaster ride, utterly stimulating it.
However, Lin Gantang still remembered one thing. “You didn’t count to three! You didn’t shout ‘three’!”
Wen Yanqing couldn’t help but laugh. “You said you were ready. What’s the difference whether I count to three or not?”
“Are you fooling around with me!” Lin Gantang was going crazy.
“No.” Wen Yanqing laughed.
I didn’t count to three as I didn’t want to give you a chance to regret it..
