Chapter One Hundred and Nineteen
After exiting the haunted house, Gu Ran still tightly held onto the young girl's small hand, enjoying the soft and delicate feel of her fingertips, refusing to let go.
The person in question, on the other hand, was still immersed in the fright from just now.
After catching the breeze for a while, she slowly came back to her senses.
Remembering how she had clung to a certain someone's arm the entire time, her pretty face couldn't stop blushing and burning up.
Especially when faced with the sudden jump scares from the NPCs, she had wanted to put on a live soprano performance right then and there.
It really ruined her glorious image as an older sister...
Walking a few steps forward, she raised her hand and realized she was still being held captive.
Looking down, the blush on her exquisite face gradually spread all the way to her earlobes.
"Why... haven't you let go yet..."
Gu Ran hesitated a bit, not wanting to let the prize in his hands slip away.
Raising her soft hand, he gently rubbed it and asked curiously, "Why is your hand so small?"
Saying so, he acted like a scholar, lifting the soft little hand and examining it as if he were genuinely curious about its size.
Seeing his antics, Ye Zhenzhen's face grew even redder.
Staring at Gu Ran's serious profile, she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
What a scoundrel!
Pei Susu had once said that there were only a few tricks men used when they wanted to hold your hand.
Things like "Your hands are so white," "Your hands are so small," "Your hands are so cold," "I heard girls' hands are very soft," "Let's compare hand sizes," "Let's arm wrestle," "You smell so nice," "You're so cute"...
The main goal was that once they held hands, they would never let go!
At this very moment, she began to believe Master Pei's wise words.
However, the younger brother in front of her was actually using such tricks on her.
In other words, this guy... had impure intentions?!
Even though she had long known that this guy's filial piety had gone bad, she always found various excuses to deceive herself.
But now, this guy looked like he wanted to cup her hand and stuff it into his mouth. She really couldn't think of any excuse to brush it off.
Could it be that he was hungry?
Then he must be really hungry!
I am your sister!!!
Scumbag!
Cursing the young man in front of her in her heart, she seamlessly pulled her hand back and tried hard to put on a nonchalant look.
"I... I'm hungry. Let's go, let's go eat."
With that, she put her hands behind her back, turned around, and walked forward.
Seeing her trying to cover things up, Gu Ran was amused and leisurely followed after her.
This guy...
Realizing her ill-intentioned younger brother was following behind her again, Ye Zhenzhen felt as if she was being bathed in his impure gaze, and the hand he had touched began to burn again.
She pursed her lips, turned around, and raised her foot to give Gu Ran a light kick.
"What was that for?" The latter raised an eyebrow, looking completely confused.
He was walking perfectly fine, why did she suddenly kick him? Did she think he had no temper?
"You, you walk in front."
Gu Ran: "..."
Enough was enough, it was just another day of being oppressed by the secular world.
He, Gu Ran, was an upright man, yet she was actually guarding against him.
Asking him to walk in front?
This was an insult to his character...
Fine, who asked him to be so magnanimous.
Being stared at earnestly by those watery eyes, Gu Ran reluctantly walked to the front.
Seeing that he knew what was good for him, Ye Zhenzhen wrinkled her nose, rubbed her hot hand, and slowly followed.
Unlike her awkwardness, Gu Ran frowned, thinking of a countermeasure.
"I feel like my hands are pretty big. How about we compare hand sizes?"
Ye Zhenzhen: "..."
Gu Ran's sudden turn caused dark lines to form on her face.
It was confirmed, her brother was indeed a scumbag!
She didn't want to face this reality, but the reality was already clear.
His filial piety had gone bad!
When Pei Susu first told her this phrase, she didn't understand its meaning, but now she was the person in the phrase.
There was no fluctuation in her watery eyes. She quietly looked at the young man in front of her without saying a word.
Feeling a bit creeped out from being stared at, Gu Ran gradually became unnatural.
Awkwardly rubbing his nose, he began to seriously reflect on himself.
It seemed... he had indeed gone a bit overboard.
He was too anxious. He should take it slow, step by step...
What he didn't know was that Ye Zhenzhen stared at him deeply for a long time and silently made up her mind.
Her brother was a scumbag, but she was not.
In order to prevent this guy from hurting other girls in the future.
As his older sister, she was duty-bound to digest this guy first.
Keeping him off the market was the best solution the young girl could come up with.
As the saying goes, if I don't go to hell, who will?
She took a deep breath, giving herself a great deal of confidence.
Just as Gu Ran was about to bow his head and admit his mistake, she suddenly stepped forward and grabbed his hand.
Gu Ran: "!!!"
This girl...
His pitch-black eyes were filled with shock.
Facing his shocked gaze, the girl tilted her head and curled her pink lips.
"Alright, let's compare."
As she spoke, she spread her fingers and tightly intertwined them with his.
Gu Ran: "???"
Was this girl possessed by a ghost??
Please, don't be like this, I'm scared...
But Ye Zhenzhen had taken the brave first step and didn't care what he was thinking at the moment.
Seeing him standing there in a daze, she pulled him forward without any explanation.
"Let's go, what are you spacing out for, I'm starving to death."
...
After eating lunch, they went back to experience other attractions.
The entire afternoon, their held hands never separated.
The two of them had a tacit understanding, and neither of them brought the matter up.
This kind of unspoken feeling was the most intoxicating thing for men and women in the ambiguous stage of a relationship.
They didn't even know what they played, but they were both happier than the other, and a full sense of happiness filled their bodies.
The only regret was that the Ferris wheel was still under construction, and they probably wouldn't be able to ride it until the second half of the year.
After leaving the amusement park, the brother and sister stood at the bus stop waiting for the bus.
The evening breeze was very pleasant.
Ye Zhenzhen's pouting lips couldn't help but relax a bit. She slightly narrowed her eyes, enjoying the tranquility of the moment.
Beside her, Gu Ran stared at her flawless profile and chuckled softly.
"It's okay, we'll come back in the winter. When the Ferris wheel reaches the top, we'll take a picture to remember it."
Hearing this, the girl's narrowed eyes twitched.
The highest point of the Ferris wheel?
Isn't that the place where couples kiss to seal their love?
Thinking of this, she opened her eyes, her crystal-clear gaze gradually turning dazed.
"Okay..."
She tightened her grip, making up her mind to apply to a school in the same city as the guy in front of her.
Don't even think about ditching your big sister to hook up with other girls...
After getting on the bus, they managed to grab a double seat by the window.
The girl pulled her younger brother down to sit, her head unconsciously leaning against the window.
After a full day's itinerary, it wasn't until she sat down that exhaustion finally washed over her.
But the strange thing was, even though she was very tired, why did her heart feel so overwhelmingly sweet?
Opening the window, the breeze gently brushed past her cheeks, bringing a trace of coolness and comfort.
The girl couldn't help but close her eyes, carefully feeling the oncoming breeze.
Gu Ran turned his head and looked at the girl beside him.
The trees on both sides of the street swayed, casting mottled light and shadows on the road.
By the window, however, the years were peaceful and quiet.
As his gaze fell upon the girl's pretty face, his expression grew increasingly gentle.
A moment later, sensing that the girl was about to fall asleep, he reached out, pulled her head away from the window, and let it rest on his own shoulder.
Ye Zhenzhen: "!!!"
The young girl's heart skipped a beat. Even though she had already made up her mind, it still felt a little inappropriate.
Why was this happening so fast?!
Her small hands immediately twisted together in nervous hesitation. Just as she was about to say something, she heard Gu Ran scold her in a stern, righteous tone.
"Sleeping with the wind blowing right in your face, aren't you afraid of catching a chill and waking up with a crooked mouth and slanted eyes? Come here, lean against me to sleep!"
So bossy~
The girl didn't say another word. She looked up at the face that was mere inches away from hers, the corners of her lips curling up uncontrollably.
A moment later, she nuzzled her head against him, found a comfortable position, and quietly closed her eyes while leaning on the person beside her.
The rest of the journey passed in silence as she gradually fell into a peaceful slumber.
However, the other person didn't dare to move a single muscle. Catching the wafting scent of sweet osmanthus from her, his throat inexplicably went a little dry...
