Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Song Zhizhi left the Song residence in Ji Baijian’s car.
Song Zhizhi handed the milk and blood samples to Ji Baijian and told him, “Let me know when the results are out.”
“Sure,” Ji Baijian nodded and kept the samples in the car fridge.
“Where should we go now?” Song Zhizhi asked.
“You were the one who proposed the date,” said Ji Baijian.
Meaning, she should be the one to plan the date too.
“You’re a man, Ji Baijian, can’t you be more proactive?” Song Zhizhi was not happy.
“Didn’t you say you’re a really good girl?” Ji Baijian’s mouth curled into a smirk,
“Now you’re making so many demands?”
Song Zhizhi was rendered speechless. After a long pause, she asked back, “Have you pampered me?”
Not only did Ji Baijian not answer, what infuriated Song Zhizhi more was that he actually had a leisurely smile on his face. And it was such a nice-looking smile too.
What the hell are you smiling at?!
The car drove around aimlessly.
Soon, the car made a stop at a street. Song Zhizhi saw Ji Baijian open the car refrigerator and took out the things she just gave him. He got out and passed the samples to a man in a black suit. The man left after taking the samples.
Then, Ji Baijian returned to his seat.
Song Zhizhi just stared at Ji Baijian. She knew very well that it was very convenient for members of high society like them to get certain things done, but somehow, for Ji Baijian, she felt as if it was almost…too convenient.
Ji Baijian felt Song Zhizhi’s gaze and frowned. “If you have anything to say, say it.”
“You’re a lot harder to figure out than I thought,” Song Zhizhi bluntly told him.
“Are you regretting your decision?” asked Ji Baijian, his eyebrows raised.
“Not exactly,” Song Zhizhi’s eyes focused, “The stronger you are, the better you can protect me, but…”
But.
Could she trust him?
Ji Baijian seemed to have realized what she was thinking, but said nothing.
Song Zhizhi took a deep breath. She did not want to dwell on it too much.
She understood very well that they were only each taking what they needed from the other. If, when the time came, they found their goals no longer aligned, they could just part ways.
The car stopped once again, this time at a large amusement park.
Today was not the weekend, so the amusement park was not that packed, but there were still a considerable number of people there. Most of the visitors were parents taking their young children there to have fun. Of course, there were no lack of couples either.
Song Zhizhi actually had no interest in this kind of place. Her mental age was almost 30, so of course she no longer had much interest in these things. She told Ji Baijian, “So you like this kind of childish places.”
“I don’t,” His long legs had already stepped inside the park.
Song Zhizhi quickly followed behind him. She then heard Ji Baijian say, “Just trying to make a kid happy.”
Who are you calling a kid?! Goddamnit!
Big sister is dozens of years older than you!
Ji Baijian bought the tickets. He led Song Zhizhi straight to the thrilling rides. The first ride that Song Zhizhi and Ji Baijian got on was the roller coaster.
Song Zhizhi was too speechless to make snide remarks at Ji Baijian.
Was this really the kind of ride to make a kid happy?
She steeled herself and climbed onto the roller coaster. As a result, she was scared half to death. When she was finally able to get down from the roller coaster, she felt like her body no longer belonged to herself. Her hair was messy and her face was pale. But more importantly, Ji Baijian had no idea how to treat a woman properly at all. He brought her to the drop tower next…
She felt like she was going to die on the drop tower. She had no idea how she got down from the ride, but in any case, the moment she climbed off, she instantly threw up. She vomited her guts out.
Someone handed her a bottle of water and some tissues.
Song Zhizhi gritted her teeth and took them. After rinsing and wiping her mouth, she asked, “Did I offend you, Ji Baijian?”
Why are you tormenting me like this?
She seemed to hear Ji Baijian smirk. No, she definitely heard him smirk.
She glared at him.
Ji Baijian suddenly bent down and swept her off her feet, carrying her in his arms.
Song Zhizhi exclaimed in shock. She quickly wrapped her arms around Ji Baijian’s neck. She was really afraid that he would get some funny ideas and suddenly fling her away. She had no idea what the guy was thinking.
Ji Baijian walked forward carrying Song Zhizhi. A lot of people in the surroundings stared at them. Ji Baijian was tall and handsome, so he naturally attracted gazes. Countless pair of envious eyes fell on Song Zhizhi. Ji Baijian kept walking while carrying her. After a while, he stopped but did not let her down.
Song Zhizhi saw the big Ferris wheel ahead of them. She then heard a woman’s voice say, “Wow, that woman is so pretentious. She actually asks her boyfriend to carry her all the way here.”
Song Zhizhi rolled her eyes. Yes, her knees were weak, but she did not want to do this under broad daylight either.
She struggled to get off Ji Baijian’s arms.
But Ji Baijian held firm. He turned his head to the woman and said, “I’m pampering my baby. What’s it got to do with you?”
The woman sulked in displeasure.
Ji Baijian added, “But with looks like yours, I imagine it would be hard to find a boyfriend, let alone be pampered by one.”
The woman was so furious that her face turned red.
An empty Ferris wheel carriage arrived right then. Ji Baijian let Song Zhizhi down inside and sat down himself.
The carriage slowly rose into the air.
Song Zhizhi and Ji Baijian sat opposite one another.
Staring at the unpredictable man, Song Zhizhi asked bluntly, “What’s gotten into you?”
Ji Baijian cast his gaze at the scenery outside. Without turning around, he answered indifferently, “Didn’t you ask me to pamper you?”
Was this how Young Master Ji pamper someone? He first frightened the person half to death, then gave the person a candy?
Song Zhizhi was too tired to deride him. She just glared at Ji Baijian.
She must admit, Ji Baijian had a pair of eyes that could suck people inside. They were deep and dark, their color hard to describe with words, and they apeared almost magical.
Song Zhizhi stood up from her seat.
The Ferris wheel carriage swayed.
She sat down on Ji Baijian’s lap.
They were now very close to each other.
Surprisingly, this time, Ji Baijian did not push her away.
Their gazes locked.
“Ji Baijian,” Song Zhizhi grabbed the collar of his shirt.
There was a slight movement in Ji Baijian’s throat.
In the past, he would have pushed her away by now.
But he was actuallv tolerating her rizht now.
“You should know that…” Song Zhizhi leaned close, her face almost touching Ji Baijian’s. Her red lips moved and said, “I’m scared of heights.”
The next instant.
“Blurgh…”Song Zhizhi buried her head in Ji Baijian’s chest and vomited her guts out.
Ji Baijian clenched his fists tightly, his expression dark..
