179: Brother-in-law, don't misunderstand me
The Window of the World in Xingcheng is different from Disneyland in Hudu.
At Disneyland, you can pay to cut in line.
The Window of the World doesn't allow that, but then again, there aren't as many people, so you won't have to wait several hours for one attraction.
At first, they were still complaining about the heat, but after playing a few attractions, even though they were sweating, they were all full of excitement.
He Yufei was fine.
She was dressed more conservatively, but Sun Ruoqian was different; after her clothes were drenched with sweat, her already ample cleavage was prominently displayed.
Even a sun protection jacket couldn't cover it.
Also, because of the sweat, the exposed section of her slender waist looked even more alluring.
Tsk!
This is the taste of youth.
As for He Yufei, who had always been very enthusiastic, Xu Zimo was neither cold nor overly warm to her.
This made her fall into self-doubt for a time.
Could it be that Tang Xinyao's brother-in-law doesn't like young women, only mature and alluring ones?
She had noticed that Xu Zimo's gaze had fallen on Sun Ruoqian several times.
Does he like big breasts?
Talent in that area is natural; she was only a B-cup, so there was no way she could compare to Sun Ruoqian.
Could she have inadvertently helped someone else achieve their goal?!
He Yufei was a little unwilling.
However, with classmates around, and Tang Xinyao always by her brother-in-law's side, it made it difficult for her to act on her intentions.
She needed to find an opportunity to be alone with him.
"Let's go on the Giant Pendulum!"
One of the classmates suggested.
Xu Zimo was indifferent, but he clearly felt that Tang Xinyao beside him was a little nervous.
Could she be scared?
Actually, the Giant Pendulum only looks scary; in reality, the feeling of weightlessness isn't as intense as the Pirate Ship.
"Let's go, let's go!"
Under the commotion, everyone went together, whether they had ridden it before or not.
The Giant Pendulum probably had the longest queue of all the attractions.
But actually, it was only a few dozen people.
While waiting in line, the screams from above made Tang Xinyao even more nervous; her palms were starting to sweat.
They only waited for less than twenty minutes before it was their turn.
The staff helped them fasten their safety harnesses, and the Giant Pendulum slowly started.
At first, the swing amplitude was small, and Tang Xinyao could barely remain calm, but as the pendulum swung higher and higher, and the speed became faster and faster, her heart felt like it was going to leap out of her throat.
Fear instantly enveloped her, and she subconsciously reached out and tightly gripped Xu Zimo's hand beside her, her nails almost digging into his flesh.
Xu Zimo felt Tang Xinyao's almost desperate grip, turned his head to look at her, and saw her eyes tightly closed, her face pale, and her forehead covered in sweat.
He squeezed Tang Xinyao's hand back and gently comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
But Tang Xinyao seemed not to have heard him at all, gripping even tighter, as if this was her only reliance in this mad swinging.
Up and down.
Her heart also rose and fell with it.
The screams all around rose and fell, and Tang Xinyao could only desperately hold onto Xu Zimo's hand, every second seeming like an agony.
Finally, the Giant Pendulum slowly stopped, but Tang Xinyao still had her eyes tightly closed, completely immersed in the fear she had just experienced, unable to extricate herself.
Xu Zimo gently patted her small hand and comforted her, saying, "It's alright, it's over."
Tang Xinyao then slowly opened her eyes, and seeing everything around her still, she let out a long sigh of relief.
Only then did she realize that she had actually taken Xu Zimo's hand on her own initiative.
And they had been holding hands the whole time!
This... A blush quickly spread across her already somewhat pale face.
The Divine-faced Maiden, at this moment, was breathtakingly beautiful.
When she let go of Xu Zimo's hand, Tang Xinyao noticed that her nails had left red marks on his hand, and she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed: "Brother-in-law, did I hurt you?"
"I'm sorry, I was just too scared..."
"It's fine, my skin... it didn't even break."
Xu Zimo smiled.
Although they had had some contact, even more intimate acts, at that time, he didn't know it was Tang Xinyao.
But just now, they had genuinely held hands for several minutes.
That feeling... he couldn't describe it.
Compared to that, what were these few red marks?
It wouldn't matter even if she had scratched him and drawn a little blood.
He Yufei watched this scene from the side, looking at the two of them with some suspicion.
Aren't they brother-in-law and Younger Sister-in-law?
Tang Xinyao, why are you blushing like a teapot?
However, Tang Xinyao had been keeping a close watch, preventing her from finding an opportunity, but now... "Let's go on the roller coaster!"
As long as Tang Xinyao was too scared to go, then she would have her chance.
Sure enough.
Tang Xinyao recalled the terrifying experience on the Giant Pendulum just now, her face turned pale again, and she subconsciously shrank back.
Xu Zimo saw this and gently said, "If you're scared, don't go. I'll stay with you and rest here."
Tang Xinyao hesitated for a moment, then nodded.
And just then, He Yufei walked over and said sweetly, "Brother Zimo, I'm a little scared to ride the roller coaster later, can you protect me?"
Before Xu Zimo could respond, Tang Xinyao suddenly spoke, "He Yufei, you sit with the other classmates. My brother-in-law has to stay with me."
With that, she tightly clutched Xu Zimo's arm, her eyes full of vigilance.
He Yufei's face stiffened, feeling both annoyed and angry, but she couldn't say anything more.
Tang Xinyao felt a little smug.
But she quickly realized that she was actually holding Xu Zimo's arm tightly, causing his arm to sink into her... shirt.
Whoosh!
She quickly let go, but upon seeing the hint of a smile in Xu Zimo's eyes, her earlobes instantly turned red.
"I... I didn't mean anything else."
"It's just He Yufei, she seems to have some ulterior motives."
"You... don't misunderstand."
She explained in a flustered, incoherent manner, seemingly afraid that Xu Zimo would misunderstand.
"Misunderstand what?"
Xu Zimo pretended not to know, deliberately asking.
This made the already shy Tang Xinyao suddenly look up, biting her tender lips, and glaring at him indignantly.
He clearly knew!
Xu Zimo looked at Tang Xinyao's shy and annoyed expression and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I naturally understand what you mean."
Tang Xinyao lightly snorted and turned her face away, but her heart was fluttering like a little rabbit.
She didn't know what was wrong with her.
When she heard He Yufei's words just now, she suddenly hugged Xu Zimo's arm.
It was as if... she was afraid Xu Zimo would be snatched away.
Moreover, even when Xu Zimo was responding to He Yufei, a strange... jealousy would well up in her heart?
She knew she shouldn't have such emotions, but she just couldn't control them.
She secretly glanced at Xu Zimo, and seeing the smile still on his face, she felt a strange joy.
This complex mix of emotions intertwined, leaving her heart feeling like it was tangled in a messy knot.
